If you've been following Telltale's critically-acclaimed video game adaptation of The Walking Dead, then you are as excited as I am! Which means you really can't wait to get your hands on that last episode! Here's 3 Reasons why...
1. Who has Clementine been talking to...?
So at this point in the game you've bonded with the little girl Clementine. You've been through thick and thin with this child. Specifically, you've been her barber, taught her how to use a gun and had her crawl through tiny spaces to get doors open from the other side. In essence, you're her guardian. But soon you realize your group is being stalked and there's some whack-job on the opposite end of Clementine's Walkie-Talkie. Who is he and what does he want?
2. Lee's fate...
Words can't describe how original this character is. Lee is a man convicted of murdering his wife and a victim of circumstance from the very beginning. You've been seeing all these unfortunate events unravel through his eyes, and have gotten close to some of the members of your 'group' (based on the decisions made throughout the game) - its either that or you've grown to hate them ...all of them...except for clementine. [Spoiler Alert] Now that he's been bitten and no one knows (except you and him), what lies for Lee ahead?
One of the most emotional moments I've ever had during a game... |
3. What lies ahead...?
We've been through a lot of sh*t. Admit it. I for one, shed tears at what happened to Katja, Duck and Carly. It was uncalled for but certainly brought me closer to Lee as a fully dynamic game character. So now you're probably asking yourself what happens next? You're expecting some clever way by which the ends meet. I kid you not, episode 5 will be amazing and a joy to play through. Can't wait!
Telltale has crafted a game that defines decision-based gameplay. The choices you make, and the responses you give truly shape the outcome of the game and fate of the characters. This, combined with the intensity and emotion at which the story is delivered - the voice acting, sound effects, comic book-like art directing - makes for a game with incredible replay value.
Great job Telltale, and all those who used their creative vision to make this happen. Thank-you so much!
