![]() Carver’s character is one that has been twisted in this world and appears to be unstable. He can kill people without so much as blinking just to get his way, yet at the same time has a care for the people that were once in his group or apart of his “family”. Without spoiling it for you, I feel that this new villain is very layered. Tough questions regarding murder, old relationships and survival all come into play and what you choose has a impact on the story.Ī House Divided introduce s a vill ain kn own as Carver that was only previously mentioned before. It really brings morality to the fore front and makes one ask what type of person they would be when everything hits the fans. You will be confronted with some tough choices, and even watching how the choices of others around you unfold is unsettling to say the least. Seeing Clementine wanting to take on a larger walker while an adult takes out the smaller one is one such example. She is not the frail little girl that we knew from Season 1, and has become a wonderful asset to those around her. Again to the games amazing writers, they have successfully pulled off a tough young girl that is trying to retain a strong hold on her position in this world. I still have my worries about her but at least I don’t hate her guts. Rather than making her be a black sheep of sorts for player aggression, her character is sold perfectly and I can see this type of person really existing. Similar in a sense to Duck from season 1, I expected to dislike her obnoxiousness, but there is none. From the first time she made me pinky promise to be friends I knew she was trouble. I expected her to be an annoying character throughout the game. ![]() If you remember Sarah from Episode 1, she is Carlos’ sheltered daughter, who has no idea that the apocalypse is upon them. Never once did I stop and think a line was stupid, and the amazing cast pulled it off so convincingly. I must hand it to the writers, this, I feel is the strongest episode all around. Did you try to save Pete or Nick? Whoever you chose is now by your side and the repercussions that unfold feel genuine and motivating. Things start off quickly enough as you are thrust right into your choices from Episode 1. You are always thinking on your feet and conversation is prevalent through the two or so hour campaign. There are rarely quiet moments in episode 2: A House Divided. I can say pretty confidentially that no one plays The Walking Dead for a challenge or for the difficult gameplay, rather for the enriched and meaningful story that brings us closely involved with the characters. By no means whatsoever is this a bad thing. There was some searching for items and some light combat, but the meat of episode 2 was all about the characters and ever evolving story that is engrossing your playtime. Episode 2 has no puzzles that I can recall. ![]() ![]() Surprisingly though this is also one of the more story driven episodes, and gameplay is served more as a way to get you from point A to B with as minimal challenge as possible. Episode 2 is easily my favorite one out of both seasons. Expectations have been high for this second iteration and I can happily say that Telltale has delivered. If you have yet to play it, please do so before reading.Įpisode 2 of Telltale’s The Walking Dead is chalked full of surprises.
