To the people that are disappointed with Episode 3.
It's all your fault. You spoil yourselves with achievements and game files, and then you create your own episode inside your head. When the episode is released and doesn't match with what you imagined you feel disappointed. It's like if your dad didn't say you're getting a pony for your birthday yet you still expect a pony.
HUBS- Telltale never confirmed hubs in episode 3 yet you overhyped yourselves with the game's file size. It's hard to have a hub in prison when your every action is controlled.
CARVER- You created the illusion that Carver was the villain of the series and expected some sort of Governor/Negan character. Carver was just the seed that will lead Clementine to either, be a better person or lose her humanity and finish what Carver started.
CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT- Do you want every single person to give you a Shakespearean monologue talking about their life? This is like real life, people either don't have nothing to hide/say or don't care about you to tell you. Also, they're in the middle of a survival situation where people's past isn't as important as their present. Their actions are enough to show us if they are worth caring for or not.
WRITING- A lot of people complain about the story having many unexplained things. Do we really need Telltale to babysit us and explain every single detail to us so we can understand and read between the lines?
400 DAYS- We still have 2 episodes to interact with the 400 days characters so relax.
This isn't the end of Telltale, the season isn't even over. I just needed to rant because I feel like people are expecting what they make up in their head. I enjoyed the hell out of this episode, maybe that makes me a casual, but in the end this is my opinion. Please feel free to share thoughts or disagree. Let's keep this civil.

Keep the dislikes coming..... I don't give a shit
This was exactly why I'm trying to avoid the achievements, and hope they at least hold off on uploading them for episode 5.
Mind you however I do still think there were legitimate problems with 203. I don't deny that, I had a lot of them too. But overall, I don't think the episode was that bad.
The only real problem I had with the episode was that it seemed like we lost more control over Clem. But I feel ya man, different people have different requirements.
And what do we get? A one hour and forty minute episode with plenty of interactions with characters and action sequences, as well as heart-racing moments. And people cry like babies because they didn't get their perfectly constructed Build-A-Bear episode that they thought they would.
Jane is even better!
I think the genius behind Season 1 was that they allowed us to get comfortable, then threw us out into the fire.
Season 2 is more about being in the fire all the time. If you can't handle the heat, then get out of the kitchen.
I agree completely. I was tempted to say the same thing, but I'm getting enough heat for my opinions on Luke.. lol.
