I played the first season on PS3 since it was $5 cheaper and was wondering if I need to play season two on the same platform to keep all my past story choices. Or have those all been severed for the next season? I would love to play on my PC instead.

Do We Need Our Saves?
Some of the things that happen at the end of 400 days seem to very heavily imply they would have an impact on the next season.
Fingers crossed they pull a Mass Effect 2 and give people like you a "here are the choices I wanted to make in season 1" type of option before going into the game.
@zolroyce: I really hope so too. My PS3's hard drive failed, so I lost my season 1 save. I'm hesitant to play season 2 if I don't have a way to get some version of my game to import.
Yes you do and I'm totally with you. I gave into the 5 dollars cheaper bid and now I regret it. Sadly I don't have any motivation to play through season one again, I feel the first time through was the story I made and wouldn't wanna mess that up. Oh well. GUESS ILL PLAY ON THESE OLD ASS CONSOLES *SIGH*......
I've reinstalled my OS since I played it last and even though I have "Steam Cloud synch" turned on it says 0 bytes stored, same as with other steam "cloud" save games. So I will be basing my purchase decision on if they go the Mass Effect route of picking all choices when you start or not. Not gonna replay it, and not interested in having things take place that would've never happened, causing inconsistencies and ultimately breaking the experience.
But at that point they need to surface every single thing from the first game that will have an impact in season 2, and if much of that comes from character interactions... Yeah I dunno. No idea how they're gonna handle the release in a good way.
Yeah if there's no way to influence what happened during season 1, I'm probably not going to play this game. Maybe someone will release some sort of Mass Effect style save generator.
I want to say someone made a site or program that lets you click boxes and generate a save file. I can't for the life of me remember for certain though.

That would be cool, otherwise maybe taletale could let you make those decisions at the beginning of season 2 ala mass effect 2 on ps3
@alexw00d: Well, the end point is pretty much the same regardless of your choices (although the 400 Days stuff seemed to differ to a slightly greater degree).
However, there are still plenty of details that season two could potentially import that could impact the experience.
I lost my saves too :(
It's not like any of your 'choices' really, truly altered the story so I kinda doubt it matters that much.
Hmm yeah that's true actually.
If there's no mass effect choice system for season 2, then I might just say fuck it and play it on Pc or Ps4. I really just don't want to play much of anything else on my old consoles. Here's hoping they give players in these type of situations options.

I'm pretty sure that's how Brad recreated his save file for Mass Effect 3? Or he thought about it before deciding to just go in generic?
Shit, I'm going to be hard-pressed to do another playthrough of S1 after losing my save file on Steam. I would be so fired up for this otherwise.
Shit I forgot about 500 days. I bought it but never played it.
I didn't think it was very good at all, in fact I left two of the scenarios for whenever this day would come just so I wouldn't have to deal with it. I just finished those two scenarios in a bout a half hour. It's a seriously short episode, maybe 2 hours tops.
I encountered nothing major/game breaking/immersion breaking so far when generating a save through the game. The episode is short, but really nice. Looking forward to see more.

Yeah I agree - that one's skippable, honestly. You follow like 5 people for 15 minutes each. It's not terrible but it's just not enough to get invested in those characters. Feels more like an introduction to them if anything, but so far no idea if that stuff will play a major role or not.
