    Less inspired than its predecessor, that second episode is more of a transition for the second part of the season. But there’s still some good stuff, among which its good writing.

    After a strong first episode, the second one comes out of the gates equally strong with a couple of nods and winks to the first season. Although episode 2 definitely leaves you wanting more, the fact that TellTale closed its doors makes us wonder if this is truly the final episode to this final season. If this is indeed the case then it simply is not enough.

    The Walking Dead: The Final Season Episode 2 lacks an intriguing plot of its own and it isn’t able to write off its great character moments and writing as part of a bigger puzzle. As is, this is mostly a setup episode. And that can work but it doesn’t work as well when there is nothing to build up to.

I am very impressed by how the story is coming along rather quickly. I love the callbacks to the past seasons and I love how a much requested characters finally made their return. The story is still taking its time but I think I like where it is heading. Lets hope Skybound can finish this game off right and end the series on a high note.… Full Review »

What did surprise, even being speculated before, is that it comes up with a very interesting element from way back in the series past installments which was purposely left open, taking me right back the first season.

    This review contains spoilers, click full review link to view. One of the best The Walking Dead Telltale episodes in a very long time, with a huge surprise introducing The Whispers, really didn't see that coming, and another surprise with Lilly returning from season one. Also loved how you can determine Clementines sexual preference when choosing Violet or Louis.

    Only a few negatives with a couple times the audio skipped dialogue although not sure if that's my PS4 messing up, and the ending was slightly anti-climatic considering the shocking ending in episode 1.
