    It is a specially good season. I think it's the best after the season one.

    We got finally so much different feelings about the last season. Clem was one of my favorite character which I ever seen in my life. And after wathing this season... I would like to say that she is perfect. We could learn a lot from her. I'm sure about that. I will miss Clem so much. And yes, I will play    It is a specially good season.

    A worthy conclusion to Clementine's story. At the end of episode 4, I had to pause the game and run to the bathroom to wipe my tears and snot. 10/10

    Pretty good farewell to the series. As much as I would like it to be as emotional as the first season was, Telltale/Skybound did a pretty good job anyway. The story has it's emotional moments and the ending is just... Well, heartwarming I guess. Can't write much about it without spoilers, so I would just end here and let you enjoy the game!

    This game is definitely one of those games that will never have anything like it. Sure I've had an amazing story rich experience in games like Mass effect, beyond two souls and the last of us but they're all unique in their own way.

    The whole telltale walking dead Clementine series was worth every penny so thank you very much to the developers for bringing this story to us. This game was so damn beautiful and really speaks to the care and love of human beings. THANK YOU    … Expand

    The Walking Dead has been around since 2012, and I have loyally followed it since, always staying hyped for the next episode after each one released. Here we arrive at the end of Clementine's story, where she is accompanied by AJ, who she has raised since his birth, and is essentially like her adopted son. It's great to see these two characters still sticking it out to the end after theThe Walking Dead has been around since 2012, and I have loyally followed it since, always staying hyped for the next episode after each one released. Here we arrive at the end of Clementine's story, where she is accompanied by AJ, who she has raised since his birth, and is essentially like her adopted son. It's great to see these two characters still sticking it out to the end after the late half of Season 2, and the chemistry between them is fun.
    MECHANICS
    - This game has changed a LOT of what Telltale is known for. Everything you say or do in front of AJ will transform him, directly, and it will impact how you play this game. You can't choose to constantly be silent, because it will bite you in the rear. AJ is like an actual child in real life; easy influential with what you say and do. After realizing this, I had to remind myself to stay careful of any decision I made if he was in the picture.
    - The combat is also revamped, and it is no longer to dull and boring quick time events strictly as the other games, now you have a two-step combat system: you walk up to a walker, stun them, and then kill them, or you can kill them and risk being attacked simultaneously by another walker mid-animation. It is simple, but it's refreshing to see Telltale not focus on quick time events now. I will admit though, regardless of how unengaging it is, it's quite fun to trap a zombie after making him chase you in a circle sometimes.
    STORY/CHARACTERS
    - The entire first episode was great in pacing-- it never felt too slow, never felt like it was moving too fast.
    It spent the right amount of time shedding light on every character you needed to know about, and it was good at having you like these characters as well.
    LENGTH
    - The episode took me roughly two and a half hours with one ten minute break. It is a VERY long first episode, probably the lengthiest one Telltale has ever made for any game, and again-- it didn't feel stretched out. By the time the game has you comfortable near the end, a certain event happens that will remain unmentioned and it makes you feel very uncomfortable and nervous.
    OVERALL THOUGHTS
    - With this being the first episode, which is normally the worst in a Telltale game, I have to admit that after playing it, I am HYPED for the rest of the season. I'm wondering how much better the episodes can get after this one, and the cliffhanger was insane. I can't wait until September, and I hear there are rumors a certain someone is coming back from season one!

    This is an unbiased review, based solely on the enjoyment I had from the first two episodes. If you have a connection to Clementine like I do, it is worth buying. There are many cliches in the story, but it still left me surprised at times and never held it back immensely.

    Потрясающая игра, не в плане геймплея и графики, а именно сюжета. Та игра от которой никто не будет равнодушным. Вряд ли можно назвать эту игру "Интерактивным кино" из-за того, что в серии The Walking Dead интерактивности фактически и не было. Эта игра создаёт лишь иллюзию вашего выбора, но есть мелочи которые и в правду влияют на диалоги, этого отрицать нельзя.

Эта для меня была первая игра в таком жанре и я не пожалел что прошёл её. Первый сезон вызвал у меня слезу, радость и горесть, что и смог повторить финальный сезон. Конечно бы хотелось чтобы у нас было больше возможностей для выбора в финальной части, но если подумать, то можно понять что это всё объясняется, тем что студия была на грани банкротства и не выплачивала зарплату разработчикам, честно говоря это чудо что игра вышла. Спасибо Skybound что закончила начатую работу Telltale Games, мне приятно что игра увидела свет и дала радость фанатам серии!

    Favorite Thing: I really enjoyed the story (most of it, anyway) and Clem's definitely one of my favorite female protagonists.
    Least Favorite Thing: That dumb hide behind the walkers part. Hated that.

    I am very sad to see the series, and studio behind it go. Very few games, if any give me the same emotional response.

    The final season wrapped up the story well and it was full of moments that made question if I did the right thing, the highs were very high and I enjoyed my time with the entire game.

    When i first played the very first season, i was in love with the TV show, and the computer game surely delivered the same emotions and thrill.
    But as the TV season went on, i've realized, that Telltale has told a complete story that probably surpasess the show in every form.
    Goodbye Clem!

    The final game that follows the story of Clementine.
    My expectations were constantly growing higher and higher each new game they published and for this game my expectations were set so high that I felt it was near unreasonable.

    Knowing this was going to be the final game, there were some reasonable fears I had with this game.
    What will happen to the main character?
    By this time, I already knew from experience with the previous games that this game can be extremely harsh with how they handle characters, and my fear wasn't as much of "how" or "when" will something happen or even "if" something would happen, but rather would they respectfully handle any situation with the character.

    I can say yes, they respectfully ended the game series with a lot of different choices.
    The main character has been learning things and behaviors from everyone she encountered in the previous games and at moments it shocks you.

    You'll go: "Oh, yeah I remember teaching her that in Season 2, I wish I did something different"
    And that's the beauty of this game.
    You followed a girl from a young age and see her become a woman.

    In spite of my 6-year old love of the TWD universe, it can surely be said that the game deserves its final. Clementine became our own daughter/friend during the past years, we've seen her in good and bad days, gone through lots of difficult choices and situations, seems like there is nothing more to say, yet it makes me feel sad to say goodbye, but it is the only word suitable, I suppose.In spite of my 6-year old love of the TWD universe, it can surely be said that the game deserves its final.

    I hope some of the Clementine, Lee, Kenny or Xavier creators is reading this, and the only thing I can say is a thank you)
    Словами не передать как много эмоций принесла мне эта игра, мне до сих пор тяжело поверить что персонажи в ней - всего лишь выдумка и их не существует, да и честно говоря, не очень хочется в это верить. Это был долгий и тернистый путь, мне очень жаль что TellTale закрылись, однако я считаю что их игры будут помнить всегда, их наследие не забудется, и надеюсь что эмоции полученные в ходе прохождения всей линейки TWD хоть когда-нибудь получится испытать вновь))    … Expand

    I am quite satisfied with an ending to this long story. I was not expecting it to be any good, but having invested money and time into previous installments I had to check out this one as well. I must say it is worth the time to play through if you liked original The Walking Dead.

Очень приятны так же и отсылки к прошлым сезонам (по типу Карвера и ноги из первого сезона). В общем, игра хороша, но игры без минусов не бывает. Я представляю как TWD был бы прекрасен, еслиб там была графика например RE2 ремастера (солидарен с Папичем). Так же стоит отметить, что сюжет который задумыввался изначально (где возможно Клем путешествовала на машине вместе с Луисом и т.д, которую вы видели когда шли рыбачить), как по мне был намного лучше существующего.… Expand

    Esta temporada tomo todo loq eu no me gusto de la temporada 3 y lo mejoro en mucho aspectos, la calidad grafica es increible, la historia es muuuuuy buena, los momentos emotivos realmente te llegan, el desarrollo de personajes funciona muy bien, da tal manera que mas de una vez me dieron ganas de reiniciar un episodio para evitar que un personaje muera (de hecho lo hice luego de terminar el episoio 4 por primera vez y ver que louis moria) pero pensarla mas de una vez porqeu tampoco quieres que el que ha sobrevivido muera tambien (en mi caso no queria que el pequeño Tenn muera porque simplemente llegue a agarrarle mucho cariño), una antagonista que de verdad llegas a odiar con todas tus fuerzas y una jugabilidad muy buena, osea, la parte cuando defiendes la escuela de walkers en llamas con el arco simplement es demasiado buena, y de igual manera la adicion de combinacion de botones (en PC al menos, aun no la jugue en consola) de shift +e o q y utilizar en distintos momentos e para aturdir y q para matar son adiciones que ya venia deseandolas desde la temporada 2 y finalmente los coleccionable y personalizacion del cuarto, cabe recalcar que no es la gran cosa, pero desde mi punto de vista era algo muy necesario para hacer el jueo aun mejor de lo que ya era, espera que si planean a futuro una entrega mas (porfavor!!!! :,c), lleven el tema de personalizacion a las armas, los atuendos, apariencia, etc. es un juego simplemente espectacular con un cierre que deja a mas de uno satisfecho, aunque triste... porque sabemos que este es el final de nuestro viaje con Clementine (porfavor saquen mas :c).
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    En esta parte solo quiero recalcar dos partes que me llmaron mucho la atencion y me gustaron bastante en este juego ademas de las ya mencionadas. La primera: la adicion de personajes LGBT, aunque en A new Frontier ya aparecio Jesus (lo cual viene a ser una conexion muy buena entre el comic y el juego) que es un personaje gay, en este se incluyen a una pareja lesbiana (violet y minerva) , James un exsusurrador gay (otra conexion con los comics, ademas que habla del ataque a la comunidad de rick) y la posibilidad de decidir la sexualidad de Clem ( Louis + Clem 4ever UwU), es un detalle bastante importante desde mi punto de vista, y el segundo detalle estaria ligado a la sexualidad de Clem, ya que puedes tener una pareja en esta temporada y tu como jugador decides quien sera y hacia que lado se inclinara Clem, Louis + Clem 4ever UwU x2.    … Expand

    We conclude with great sadness this saga alongside Clementine. Even if it is quite short, the episode still offers us a great deal of emotion and action. Produced in the same manner as the previous episodes, it still brings some innovations and does not simply end the adventure softly. AJ takes off for the worse and for the better.

    It's so exciting to see Clementine growing up and guiding another child just like what Lee used to do. The ending is depressing but with an amazing twist. If you love the series and care about the destiny of Clementine, you can't miss it.
