I really want to play this

Playing this now. This is fucking incredible so far.

Just finished. Very, very good. Even though that first episode was actually very short as far as segments went, it took me a few hours to get through it due to all the things you could explore and do. All the optional conversations and sub-plots. Very cool! I feel like they made sure that every single character in the game had a purpose for being in it and I love games like that.

Although I kind of agree that rewinding time does ruin the whole panic mode you get in Walking Dead, there is a TON of decisions in this game that it's hard to keep up with or even know what they're going to do. I feel like this game is more about dilemma whether or not you should use your power for every little thing. I feel like going back to change everything to good might be bad. Maybe the storm is actually a consequence of using the power too much? Who knows. It's little things. I'll get into that more in the spoiler.

Despite all the searching around I did, I still missed a TON of stuff. I only took three of the photos you could take and seeing the full decision list, I overlooked a ton of things. Which makes me incredibly excited, actually.
All my decisions. Including the big and minor ones as well:

Spoiler

MAJOR DECISIONS - I reported Nathan. I actually did this at first, got spooked at the principal's reaction and went back and didn't, but ended up going back once more to do it again. - I comforted Victoria. Not going to stoop down to her level just cause she's a cunt. Figured I'd be the better person by showing compassion. Odd that Boc got a text from her though, I never got that. - I intervened to help Kate. This is another decision I rewound on. I took a picture at first thinking that I could use it later on, but Kate's reaction to me not helping her kind of made me feel like a jackass so I went back to help her. I kind of regret this. I feel like that picture could be important later. - I stayed hidden. Once again, I rewound to see both decisions in action. I felt bad but I also don't think taking the blame changes that much since he's going to be a piece of shit no matter what and knows she probably smokes weed cause of his camera system. Didn't see the point in hurting my reputation at school at that expense. I feel like this is going to seriously hurt my relationship with Chloe later but I'm selfish I guess. MINOR DECISIONS - I let Daniel draw me. Didn't see the big deal and I'm surprised I'm in such a minority for this. - I signed Ms. Grant's petition against David's surveillance system. Once again, surprised I'm in the minority for this. - I helped Alyssa. As funny as the football hitting her was, I figured helping her would open a sub-plot for her down the road. - I erased the insults on Kate's board. - I watered my plant. - I and 97% of people did not touch Dana's pregnancy test. Must have been highly overlooked, I never noticed that (: - Didn't touch Victoria's pictures. Once again, I must have overlooked this somehow. Though honestly, I kind of rushed out of her room cause I was terrified she was gonna walk in. - Didn't touch the RV. I kind of went straight to Warren in the parking lot, I didn't even mess with it. Seeing a guy come out of it during the snowstorm cutscene pissed me off cause I think I must have missed a scene there. Oh well. - I saved the bird's life. I actually really, really regret doing this. I don't know why but I feel like this bird is going to fuck things up horribly. - I did not break Chloe's snowglobe. I actually missed this scene entirely, once again. - I read through David's files. - I did reverse time to put David's evidence back where it was and not on the floor.

Tomorrow! Get hype

Finished. This is getting very good!

Decisions & Thoughts

Looks like the theory of constant rewinding = very bad is coming true. I vowed to lay off on the rewinding in this episode and only did it once for the major decisions of this episode.... course more than half of the episode relied on you constantly rewinding either for fun or saving Chloe and Kate from a horrible death. So I guess there's no way around those. I also rewound to satisfy all the minor decisions (Helping Warren with his chemistry, talking to Taylor about her mom, gaining access to the party, etc) but whatever. I'm curious if anyone else's storm vision sequences or nose bleeds were more intense than other's based off of how much they rewound last episode. The situation with Kate is definitely foreshadowing though. I feel like there's going to be a scene with Chloe where she can't be saved cause we were too busy dicking around before with the power to the point where I can no longer use it to save her from a falling tree/speeding car/oncoming train/whatever. I still missed a ton of stuff. I only got two of the photo ops. Missed a couple of conversations based off my minor decisions results. - Told Kate to wait. After seeing my room vandalized and getting threatening texts, I didn't think Kate could handle the same on top of the heckling she was getting. - Answered Kate's call. Chloe was being ridiculous about this. - Tried to shoot Frank. Originally did not, but changed my mind after Chloe's reaction. Felt like I was pissing Chloe off way too much in this episode so I wanted to stand up for her to see what would happen if I fired. - Saved Kate's life. Can't believe almost half didn't. Jeez. - Blamed Nathan for Kate's suicide attempt... really a no brainer for me. Minor decisions: - Watered my plant - Did not help Alyssa... I must have missed this because I have no idea what it's about. - Was friendly with Taylor - Erased the link to Kate's video on the mirror - Wrote "Max was here" in the hangout spot - Accepted Warren's invitation - Gained entry to the Vortex Club Party - Helped Warren with his experiment - Told on David to Jefferson... and there you go, this is where that picture would have came in handy. Though now I don't regret standing up for Kate instead, I feel like that was a big factor in convincing her that I'm her friend and to step off the roof.

Is this game fun? I watched the first episode but I haven't played it.

Yes. Lots of exploring you can do, many different outcomes. Has a surreal amount of replayability.

wut. Can you actually play it too?

I'm tempted to just get this on PC, it's going to be impossible to play this on my XBox anytime soon.
