Impressions of the game (The Wolf Among Us)
So, share impressionsPassed the game, there were only positive emotions. Waiting for the 2nd episode, unless ,of course, he will.
Recently went through all the episodes, the game overall was very pleased.
What is done on 10/10 - it's the atmosphere, I mean not compared to the original, but in General, as an original phenomenon, to penetrate from the first frame. History, too, by and large, hooked, there are a couple of places that I really liked, and a few minor cons of the game, but overall it's practically a masterpiece. In the game I personally was many times more enjoyable to play than both parts of TWD. The only thing - the story itself is quite logically ended, you can write a sequel, but I do it raises some concerns. Can they beat the first part, or at least to preserve the best of what it is?...
True Detective
For example, The Walking Dead: The Video Games Telltale Games proved that they know how to write a good story in an already established universe. In The Wolf Among Us proves it the second time.
The Wolf Among Us draws from the first minute. In the first Chapter of the first episode the Sheriff, the Wolf manages to fill the mug lumberjack, say a dozen mats and smoke a couple of cigarettes. And all this works for the atmosphere, making The Wolf Among Us a real Noir, where all the bad happens at night under the wall of rain, the main character always smokes and suffers from a week of lack of sleep, and each thread leading to the disclosure of the crime, only exacerbates the situation.
Gameplay in the form of wandering around the locations, in comparison with The Walking Dead: The Video Games, was the least happy. Now the story is continuous and the degree of tension subsides for a minute.

Finished a couple of days ago, really liked the game. It can be called ALMOST a masterpiece. A little spoiled the impression of a small hole in the plot. I will not spoil what it is, but they are visible. I would put a 9.9 out of 10. Chic atmosphere, interesting dialogues, developed characters, a plot with lots of interesting twists and turns - all this indicates the great effort of the developers. Soon will play in The Walking Dead, I think, will not be worse, but hardly better than this well-told story. Waiting for the second season!) ))
Quest in the genre of interactive cinema, the ideological continuation of the gorgeous The Walking Dead (hence the inevitable comparison).
The plot is built on the perversion of fairy tales - very popular thing at all times. In contrast, for example, Sapkowski with his brutal plagiarism and Great and Terrible White Wolf, in the world of Legends, all these Cutesy princes and daring princesses with nothing better to do than to escape from some terrible enemy... in new York. Well, in General, from fantastic creatures special logic should not wait to determine. So strange to see them whining on the subject of how bad everything is and why suddenly there's whores, maniacs, etc. Wanted freedom? Receive and sign. With a General Amnesty, so that even such a fairy Cicatelli how Bluebeard can now start living with a clean slate. In General, the screen liberally splashed with mud, rude, and Noir.
The funny thing is that it's damn gorgeous! :) Developers have turned out if not the most interesting story, noticeably the dealer to an end, but incredibly atmospheric. Interesting dialogues are replaced by investigations, which in turn give way to some pretty good action (fights and chases with the push of different buttons, Yes, there is a really cool made). All under the incredibly picture of stylish and depressive atmosphere. There is a Big and Scary Gray Wolf - turned-Sheriff and wants to be better, though it still scared (not surprising, given what he was up to in the tales). Well, or want the player, because there you can be good to be evil and even to be silently arrogant, ignoring all dialog choices (also an interesting option, by the way).
I've chosen to be a good-natured, mostly to impress Snow white, which unexpectedly turned out to be one of the best companions GG along with Isabel, Alex Vance, etc. And certainly one of the prettiest. ^_^
Ah, Yes. Comparison. So, this game is weaker than Walkers. Shock moment only one and he at the end of the first Chapter. It is really amazing, I wanted to shout loudly Noooo!!!!. But it is only one. Otherwise, such a smooth listen, Shamus, removing the gloss with which Stories get the most banal of police stories. Another thing in technical and visual style, which is gorgeous (especially in maximum 5K resolution). Tales and Noir seemingly nesochetaemoe concepts, but the train turned out really well, supported by very good music.
Get a stylish and interesting story, even comic books wanted. :)
10/10
Good interactive movie like the Walking dead.Only here the characters are more charismatic and the plot intricate.
Still got hands to this game, passed twice the game, because there were places where the first time not to visit or let's allow something to change if you go first to one place, and then to another. In general, it was nice to pass twice, besides some new details in the plot were opened. Yes, the game is linear, the plot will not change, but still there are different endings and read the moments that from the first passage will not see and their decisions.
About the plot of what to say, it becomes more complicated with each series. To say about the ending, he then realize that in some way Twisted was right, that the administration did not cope, and he used it for his sake and in fact became influential in the city being in the shadows, and some were behind him mountain.
Of these small disadvantages, it is sometimes dialogues tightened, even moments the time strip goes quickly, do not have time to consciously choose the answer.
The game itself is beautiful even now, the style of graphics is excellent, especially powerful looks when the action takes place at night and around some thread of neon lights, night light, just such a noir game. In addition, the camera puts the right angles.
The plot is gripping from the very beginning. The graphic style does not interfere with the game even after so many years. And all this is accompanied by a beautiful soundtrack. Now I'm waiting for the second season.
Here are my in-game choices:
A very stylish toy. An unusual look at fairy-tale characters, the wrong side of their lives in New York. Children's fairy tales ended, real life began - everything is like with people. I think the game needs to be played at least twice.
