Replaying The Walking Dead - Yes or No?

edited December 2013 in The Walking Dead

So, here's the deal:

I have NEVER replayed a single Episode of The Walking Dead. In my eyes it seems "wrong" and like "cheating", because the experience, the suspence, the "not knowing" is what makes this game special. But since I just flatout love this game I really want to.

I got to know the game fairly late, buying the retail version and rushing through it in like three days.
I was instantly hooked, and I experienced what no other game had accomplished with me before.
The end left me, and believe me when I say it, completely shattered, broken and depressed.
I seriously couldn't sleep for the following weeks as I was so emotionally taken away by the game.
And I really don't know, should I infact replay the game, if I could live through that again.

I now have one Savefile. Season 1, 400 Days, Season 2. I played the way I would really react. This save is the truest to me.

Now, I need some other opinions. Do you guys think I should start a second playthrough? Would it stale my experience? Would it be beneficial? Would it ruin the Game?
I am in kind of a dilemma here... When I really like a game, I just pop it in and give it another go... But with The Walking Dead, I am not sure if thats the right thing to do.

Please just share your opinion. Do you understand my concerns? Have you replayed the game? How has this affected you?

I really appreciate each and every comment on this matter and wish you all happy holidays.

  • I felt the same way for a long time, but before season 2 came out I decided I'd do another. I'd say it's worth it because it's fun, but you can also do things differently to see how it might change things along the way. Definitely play again.

  • I don't think that you should play it again because when you play it again it will be less fun and exciting because you kinda know what's going to happen already.

  • I pretty much did the same as you for season 1 but for season 2 I did do another play through just to see different results but I will keep my original play through as is and play episode 2 with that save file.
