Gay people make up 3% of the total population is there really a need to see them in every fucking thing. On the verge of an apocalypse in these butt pirates happen to find each other.

What kind of survivalist stands up in the middle of the street and shoots with people behind the fence? You crawl on top of your roof and fire at their ass from there. Prone and less exposed
Yeah, that part had me like what the fuck is this dude doing. :smh:

I knew faggot hbo would embellish the fag shit... if they just IMPLIED it in the game, it shouldve just been IMPLIED during

the movie and stay true to the game like its been doing...

I dont give a fuck what an adult wants to do with their live..but men kissing romantically will

ALWAYS LOOK STUPID AS FUCK... they KNOW better to have this in the first episode because they KNOW

many wouldve stopped watching...

it was annoying but if felt good being able to fastforward right past that bullshit....

I don't game, so I'm wondering
...how is the actual game played? By that I mean from what I'm hearing, the characters deaths are written into the code right? The daughter, Tess, gay dude (off screen in the game)....

So as a game player, what are you doing since it seems like the outcomes are baked in. Like, is it possible to direct the characters along a different route than the route they are going on another player's screen?

Or is it more you start it and watch the characters do what they do according to the code?

You follow a linear story. You're trying to get to certain spots or gain something to help get to destinations like the car battery or a working vehicle. Plus some routes are blocked so you have to figure ways to get around or crawl through spaces.

Resources are very limited so you enter abandoned buildings to to scavenge things. There are big and smaller battles in between and then cutscenes to extend the story or show major deaths.

The gameplay is some of the best ever in a video game and is brutal, you can shoot mofos heads and legs off, make bombs that will blow things to pieces.

Episodes 2 - 3

Watched these last night before going bed.

Episode 2 played out pretty good. Going back to when the first infection started in Indonesia was interesting. The reaction of that doctor to what she saw showed how serious this infection was.

Joe, Tess and the girl making their way out thru Boston also played out well with the visuals of how destructive the virus was and how the Government reacted. We got to see the infected in full action and they played the suspense leading up to it well. The action with the infection took it a step above with what the “Walking Dead” has done. We should start seeing this year the future Walking Dead content go in the direction this series is taking.

Episode 3 had Joe give Ellie a history lesson on what was going on. The flashback with the Black lady/baby was pretty chilling following what Joe had said.

We met Bill the survivorlist/conspiracy nut. I loved how that cat was prepped up. The only thing that made no sense was him having his house located there along with having that loud big ass diesel generator in his backyard. He should be on Solar.

I haven’t played the game, curious to know what the point of his character was in the game and how it played out.

Going to let a couple episodes stack up again before watching.

Pardon my ignorance, I’m not familiar with solar power. Was solar readily available and reliable in 2003?
