The game may not please most of those who have been following the last two games (like me and half a bout of crazy), but still, even without the weight of their predecessors, A New Frontier has a good story, new characters Interesting, and of course a good ending.… Expand

    The Walking Dead: A New Frontier starts very strong. In the first 2 minutes you are in a room with a "Walker".
    Which is very surprising coming from telltale, which always had boring introductions so they later could make a good story.
    And this season we are introduced to new characters. And I am glad to say that I were invested in the new characters just as I am with Clementine. And    The Walking Dead: A New Frontier starts very strong. In the first 2 minutes you are in a room with a "Walker".

    And A new feauture in the game is some kind of "backseat gaming" feauture were you and YOUR friends from a app can decide what to say which make it more fun when my mates were arguing about what to pick.

    Graphics is a big improvement since the last season, the characters is more detailed then ever with their new engine.

    This is a must buy. And don't worry if you have missed all season's because you can pick diffrent

    *Spoiler alert*

    Clementine is now more bad ass than ever!

    Good Work Telltale!    … Expand

    A very promising start to season 3 of the walking dead. Graphic detail has improved quite a lot and the game looks beautiful, although there are quite some performance issues and glitches.
    The characters seem quite interesting and believable. Maybe not as strong as in season one or the 400days characters, but good nevertheless. The first two episodes are well put together with nice pacing    A very promising start to season 3 of the walking dead.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Telltale games have totally shot themselves in the foot recently by taking on way too many projects and half-assing them out the door but its good to see that their bread and butter game is still being given such a great deal of attention.

    The game runs better than previous installments, the game taking place from an entirely new characters POV right off the bat was a decision that worried me but has evidently worked great and as usual just where I think I've done everything right and everyone might live and be happy for at least a little while something that I forgot about momentarily comes out of left field and turns everything on its head.

    The ending of the first episode messed me up so much that a week later I keep chickening out of playing episode 2 for fear of dealing with the fallout of what happened. And I mean that as a good thing.    … Expand

    It doesn’t quite have the charm the other seasons has, but it still holds well as an amazing story with great characters.

Novamente o jogo nos dá opções de como jogar o mesmo, mantendo a tendência já encontrada nos jogos anteriores, aonde o jogador toma decisões e as mesmas terão um impacto cedo ou tarde, posso destacar 2 delas que são destaque no game, construir um relacionamento com seu irmão, ou seguir seu coração pela mulher que você ama, e isso cria uma trama completamente secundária a todo aquele clima de sobrevivência, o jogo conta uma história que vai além de sobreviver, ele conta essa história enquanto você sobrevive, é de fato um game simples em sua essência porém tão completo em conteúdo, sua trama emociona o jogador, o deixa empolgado e até mesmo com raiva em certos momentos aonde se ocorre uma injustiça, de todo é um jogo mais que aprovado por mim e certamente com uma das tramais mais intensas que já experimentei em um jogo do seguimento!… Expand

    I just finished the season and it was awesome. I love these types of games so I enjoyed every minute of this season. The new characters that are introduced all great and the story kept me hooked.

    A decent story but would work better as a spin-off. I didn't really like how Clementine was side-lined after two seasons of character development. I think Javier was a decent protagonist but not as good as Lee or Clementine. I liked the more stylistic gameplay but i didn't like how short the episodes were as this was supposed to be the season following the first two.

The characters were decent and i especially liked Javi's relationship with his brother. I didn't like how little control it felt you had compared to the other games and i felt most of my actions were inconsequential. Overall, i thought this was a decent walking dead game which would've worked better if it just replaced that stupid Michonne game and was a spin-off.… Expand

    Esse jogo é maravilhoso, ele é curto? depende do ponto de vista, se tu for jogar ele só uma vez pra pegar as conquistas, então sim, ele vai ser curto, mas essa não é a melhor maneira de aproveitar ele, pois as decisões que tu toma tem um impacto gigantesco em todos os momentos, não é como a maioria dos outros games que só o final importa e suas decisões no meio do game são irrelevantes.Esse jogo é maravilhoso, ele é curto? depende do ponto de vista, se tu for jogar ele só uma vez pra pegar as conquistas, então sim, ele vai ser curto, mas essa não é a melhor maneira de aproveitar ele, pois as decisões que tu toma tem um impacto gigantesco em todos os momentos, não é como a maioria dos outros games que só o final importa e suas decisões no meio do game são irrelevantes.

    É o melhor game que já joguei desse gênero, no primeiro capitulo eu já me emocionei, é incrível como o jogo consegue fazer tu se importar com TODOS os personagens, tu sente vontade de proteger todo mundo, sente medo de magoar qualquer um deles pq tu sente que no fundo todos são boas pessoas.

    Detalhe, esse foi o primeiro jogo da franquia que joguei e posso dizer que tu não precisa ter jogado nenhum outro jogo pra entender bem ele, pois ele consegue apresentar muito bem todos os personagens.    … Expand

    Maybe a bit flat compared to previous seasons but still pretty nerve-jangling. [Aug 2017, p.78]

    It’s a solid third season for The Walking Dead, but we’ve seen so much better. Cheap plot devices and inconsistent tones in the writing hurt the overall quality of the narrative, and the Telltale Tool continues to show its age in the worst ways. And, for diehard fans, Clementine will still find a way to steal the show from the new cast.

    Despite its promising subtitle, there's little new in The Walking Dead: A New Frontier to write home about. A revamped presentation, new characters, and excellent voice acting make it live up to the expectations, but the traditional flaws on the technical side of things and an undeniable stagnation on the narrative one stop it from reaching the greatness of the first season.
