    I'll be back on the 29th, Milo. As Kanye West would say, TTG don't care about PC gamers. :P

    Try this thread for initial reactions, but it hasn't got a chance. You do know that almost the entire forum must be considered "Episode 1 discussion" and that nothing can be confined to a single thread for episode 2?

    But nice poll. Aaaaand... Harrison has cast the vote. The guy can't leave a poll alone. ;)

    Nope. But I might make a review thread instead of the episode 1 one and sticky it. ;)

    my thoughts? kinda disappointed to be honest, they introduced a new character with very little idea where he came from (airforce, big woop) just so they could kill him off as a plot device thats poor, as a story telling device thats even poorer, reminds me of the simpsons episode were they introduced poochy and ripped appart anything that decides to randomly and for no reason introduced a new character just to drive on the story.

    My choices from the previous ep seemed to have no impact either, kenny would constantly bitch at me for siding with larry in the first ep even though i sided with him all the way through, so yeah, that was nice.

    and the battery joke.... jesus christ guys out of all the ideas the community has had you choose the batterys?! that was probably the lowest part of the entire ep to be honest.

    Limited choices with random outcomes made this arduous at best. at no point was i given the option to leave the dairy farm even though i could tell these guys were dodgy from the walk there, so, lumped with a choice i didnt want with no way to change it, awesome.

    i will continue to play the other episodes however this one seemed to fall short of what the first promised.

    Side note: Lee's reaction when looking at the picket fence did make me chuckle.

    So no choices made in ep 1 really changed peoples attitude toward you in this episode?

    Lily hated me and mark liked me and Carly was barely in it, Larry and Kenny both were angry so it seemed a bit odd

    finally got it and finished it !

    yeah i agree the choice system is biased one way or the other and i'll say more with other playthroughs but wow

    overall it was a good ep and i can see why it was delayed

    i lol'd at some things like clem saying 'i don't know' about if she licked the salt lick..and duck when lee says no to playing on the hay bale

    i 'wtf omg that was brutal' when kenny 'dropped the salt lick' i tried to save him..

    i do feel like the game has to have some limits to keep it within a certain path but thats ok with me.

    First of all SPOILERS

    I really liked this episode, even through I managed to figure out what was going on before it actually happened (bloody clothes, not being able to see Mark, and the line "It'll be a good one" when Lee said he was going to wait for supper).

    Kenny showed his other side in this one and really did dissapoint me here, though I mainly sided with Lilly here, she was the more capable leader.

    END SPOILERS

    All in all a mindblowing episode, the extra month and a painful day wait was well worth it.

    maybe it was just my first run of ep2 with a mix of choices from ep1 but i don't like how much of an asshole kenny 'can be' it it seemed totally over the top and excessive.

    i'll try a pure good run with him later to see if he changes but wow he is brutal..

    so whats next on the 'taboo' list ?

    suicide check
    hint of rape check
    cannabalism check
    torture check

    and only two episodes in... fuck,,,,, ttg have really gone dark !
