You try and show one of your friends TWDG and they look at it and say "This is a cartoon, I hate cartoons." Because it HAPPENS TO ME ALL THE TIME!

  • Yeah it's hard to get them to play the game. They just assume from the start it's going to be a low-budget game (it maybe was idk) and a cartoon because it looks that way. But when they play the first episode, they realise how good of a story and game it is.
  • Yeah, one of my friends won't try it because he say's that the graphics make him nauseous or something. It's basically his way of telling me he is a shallow gamer.
  • my friends say "oh im not into zombie games and killing"

    ITS NOT ABOUT ZOMBIES... exactly. ITS ABOUT THE STORY! They just don't understand and don't know what there missing.... I wanted my sister to get into it but she refused. so I bribed her. I said if you play the whole game and DONT cry at the ending I would give you 50$. and of ours she lost. I said she didn't have to give me anything if she did cry, but she now loves it and pays season 2 without me telling her to. so just bribe the people, even if you don't have the money, its not like your going to need it!
  • I showed my friends and now they can't get enough out of the game xD
  • Yeah, all the time :D

    I told at least 4 people and they all were like 'Meh'

    And one even said 'Elder Scrolls Online' had a better story after I told him it's all about the story

    I laughed at him and said:

    'Yeah, you believe that...'
  • This means you need new friends. Who in this world hates cartoons? xP
    J/K, i'm sure they're fine, they just have poor taste. =p
  • Tell them better graphics does not a better game make. And then slap the shit out of them if they mouth off after that.
  • Ugh. The Elder Scrolls Online. *pukes*

  • Ikr?

    THAT'S a shitty game (imo)

  • "So when do you actually start playing?"
    "What?"
    "When are the cutscenes over?"
    "..."
  • HOLY SHIT, TRIP IS THAT YOU?!

  • OH MY GOD!!! That exact thing happened with my sister. She said, "I don't like this... it's too cartoony."
    Love her to pieces, but she does things like this to purposely annoy me >.<
  • Haha, the same happened with my brother.

    He even makes fun of me while I'm playing, 'cause "he's younger and doesn't play with 'cartoony stuff'", as he always says, lol.

  • My uncle who's really into video games played the first two episode. He said he's tired of the whole survival of the fittest in a ZA setting. I can respect that, but I still tried to push him into playing the later chapters. I also tried to recommend it to friends, but they all gave me the dumbest looks when I told that it's unrelated to the TV show.
  • Me: Come on you really need to play it!
    Friend: No it looks shit.
    Me: Oh really... just try it out.

    *Friend plays the whole of Season 1.*

    Friend: I've played better, told you it was crap.
    Me: Oh... okay.

    *Slowly reaches down for conveniently placed salt lick*

    Me: I dare you to say that again >:D
  • Most of the gamers judge games by their graphics. Like telling Minecraft is shit because it's 'pixely'.
  • Cartoons are better than live action, in my opinion
  • My friends loved this game, even my family. I am the chosen One.
  • Oh hail the chosen one!!

    My friends loved this game, even my family. I am the chosen One.

  • someone I know said it was shit cause there was no daryl I wanted to punch them in the face so bad that day
  • Yeah, I hate cartoons because my parents didn't let me watch them when I was growing up, but the The Walking Dead game is amazing, and I hate when people don't even give it a chance to prove itself.
  • I showed the game to my bro and he loved it :) but hes shallow...when carlos died he couldnt stop cheering :C
  • High five.
  • Mmhm :__:
  • When I first saw TWDG it was on youtube something like halfway through the first season back then and I thought wtf is this? I didn't know it was an actual game I thought it was just some cartoon thing someone had done on Youtube and called it TheWalkingDead.

    But then months later I heard about the game and realised it was the same thing so I got it and was able to play the whole first season without having to wait for episodes to come out. It was great!
  • I think TWDG is not for everyone. I don't even bother showing it to my friends, 'cause half of them aren't gamers and the other half would probably react the way you described. Hell, I don't think I would've ever played this game if hadn't miraculously stumbled into it.

    Does your brother like torturing small animals too? XD

  • that isn't opinion its fact my friend the casual fans of twd are too blind to see it

  • I tried showing it to one of my friends, and she said it sucked because she couldn't get past the first puzzle in the game. (The parking lot infested with walkers) Some of my other friends enjoy watching me do my second play through of the game, but they won't buy it. I also have one friend who loves The Walking Dead, but won't play the game because "games don't have good stories." I then tried to tell him that the game has a better storyline then the show and comic, but he just says that's because you can make choices.
  • Well, my sister is crazy about that game thanks to me :D But my friends, NO! "LOL is better than that!" JESUS, ARE YOU F**KING KIDDING ME?! How can you compare a Single Player game to Online Game?! Shitbirds. Shitbirds are everywhere.

    I've had a friend decline playing TWD because he says it has too much action and he likes games that make you feel emotional.

    I was like, "Bitch, the hell you on?Do you even know what you're talking about? "

    He loves The Last of Us, interestingly enough, yet he still refuses to give TWD a chance. I don't get it.
  • Lol, just show him Carver's death scene... unless he's like 8 then otherwise, seriously, don't, that would scar the kid...

    Luckily though, my brother whom is 20 enjoys the game, he's the only relate-able one of my entire family xD

    I showed my friend TWD he said: "Cartoon? That's for babies." I dragged him by the collar of his shirt and locked him in room with me, He can't leave until he plays TWD. He did play though, and he never talked about zombie games since then.
  • Story of life .My friends thinks I am a little girl for liking anything that has cartoon in it.

    Once I showed TWDG to my cousin 'cause she like that kinda stuff she replied by saying that she hates that shit and that TWD universe is lame.Then she returned to me wanting to play the game 'cause she watched her favorite youtuber played it
  • The only people who like the game in my family are my brother and my dad. Three of my sisters don't care much for it, and one of my sisters swears that it's not better than the tv show... even though she's only seen like five minutes of the game :I

    My friends loved this game, even my family. I am the chosen One.

  • Never had this problem.
  • Skyrim was better.... FUCK EVEN OBLIVION!!! ACTUALLY THE WHOLE OFFLINE SERIES IS BETTER!!!

    I get that a lot too, but I had one friend who was never a fan of zombies and absolutely hate the Walking Dead, but when I let him play All That Remains for himself, he was just so freaking AMAZED at how good it was. I was slowly converting him to the zombieverse before that as well. :3
