Finished the first episode Great game! Nice visuals and music, and the time reversal mechanic is sweet and should continue to get really interesting. The worst part is the dialogue. It's predominately about 19 year old girls so they all say "hella cool!" and TOTES and all that terrible shit all the time. The writers seem to have no idea how teenage girls really speak......tho teenagers DO speak like that I guess (: . NOT THAT MUCH THOUGH It's pretty heavy on nostalgia which I liked a lot. The character stuff is done well so far and I'm really curious how all the decision making turns out. When you make a choice or any sort of action, even if it seems like a tiny one, text pops up and tells you that it will have consequences. It's hard to tell what the consequences are gonna be, they're often not very immediate My choices if anyone else ends up playing (you should): Spoiler + - Reported Nathan - Made fun of Victoria while she was down. FUCK HER! - Intervened and helped out Kate - Took the blame to cover for Chloe EDIT, good review: http://kotaku.com/you-should-play-this-episodic-supernatural-high-school-1682653682

I'm very late on this game, but I just finished episode 1. I felt like I needed to do it all in one sitting and luckily I'm not working tomorrow, so there it is!

I enjoyed it a good amount. Lots to explore and I missed a ton of stuff apparently. Kind of bummed about that, but I think that's the point. You just observe what you observe and do the things that catch your eye.

Every time I sat down somewhere and Max started reminiscing, it made me feel good for some reason. Thinking back to the good old days!

I quoted Curtis because I picked these exact choices. Of the decisions available:

Spoiler

+

MAJOR DECISIONS - I reported Nathan. The principal is a major dick! I figured this might hurt me since Nathan is from a high family in the area, but it just felt right to do! But seriously, any teacher that wouldn't scoop the kid up and search him immediately is a dodo - I made fun of Victoria. She's horrible, so I didn't feel bad doing it back to her. Funny Max doing the exact same thing and watching the shame on Victoria's face! - I intervened to help Kate. I initially took the picture thinking I'd use it as evidence for something, but when she reacted so poorly, I rewound and intervened. I feel better about that choice anyway and anything to stand up to Officer Dick is good - I took the blame for Chloe - Mostly because I actually didn't hide in time and thought I wasn't actually able to. So...when I have either throw her under the bus or take the blame, I felt like I shouldn't make our friendship suffer after things were just starting to patch. But after Max said not to tarnish her reputation and lose her scholarship, I almost rewound. But I don't know there are right answers, so I left it. But now I'm paranoid about my schooling :( MINOR DECISIONS - I didn't let Daniel draw me - I didn't even see Daniel. - I didn't sign the petition - Never found the option (: - I helped Alyssa - She asked to hang out but then didn't even get my digits! TF! - I erased the insults on Kate's board - :peacesign: - I didn't water my plant - Never saw my plant. I hope it's dead. - I did not touch Dana's pregnancy test - Never saw it - Didn't touch Victoria's pictures - I thought I was on a time limit and only looked at a few things in her room before bolting. - Didn't touch the RV - I actually walked around the parking lot a bit and made it to the RV but didn't interact. I had no idea who that guy was during the cut scene - I saved the bird's life - Like KC said waaay long ago, I was also concerned about what bad this bird could bring about. I also thought it would fly away, but the fact it stayed in the room sitting on the wardrobe like that felt shady. I thought it would just mean the dad gets pissed someone was in his room, but it was never mentioned. - I broke Chloe's snow globe - She didn't seem to bent about it, but I decided to rewind anyway. - I read through David's files - That I did and I didn't care!! - I LEFT HIS PICTURES SCATTERED EVERYWHERE!!!!

I liked that I could see my choices compared to the player base and my friends. Was interesting to see what I was in the majority on and what I missed. Will wait for episode 2 to be on sale before moving on, but I could get behind this type of game even though it makes me paranoid.

I find myself not being able to make the tough choices or the mean choices at times even though it affects my real life 0.

All episodes are 5 bucks on steam. I bought it. Can't wait to finish it all.

I'm so glad you saw this Jeff! Good thing I posted this here!!

Started episode 2 last night. Already find myself more on my toes and looking at everything. Taking me longer to get through this one, but I still stayed up way longer than I should have last night. Was only planning to play for half an hour and that turned into 2 hours.

I have taken half the pictures I need so far. Determined to find them all.

What's your Steam name Bryce? Add me Leaffan20 or I can add you

We're already friends (:

I think it's misterfozz though

Just finished episode two. This one was ROUGH! A lot I wish I would have done differently. I didn't rewind a single time outside the ones I was supposed to.

Episode 2 choices

+

- Told Kate to wait. This just seemed like the logical choice. It honestly reminded me of the FE conversation in Kevin Spacey thread and how when girls go to the police with no real evidence, they just get written off. So I told her to hold off. - Answered Kate's call. No question. Didn't think Chloe would be pissed about it though. But every time Max speaks doubt about her decision and possibly rewinding, it always makes me think about it. But I felt good about this choice. - Tried to shoot Frank. To be honest, JV was talking to me during this scene, so all I knew is I could shoot or not. I asked Jeff what to do and he said "SHOOT HIS ASS!!" and I did. Glad I tried though. Interested to see what comes of that choice. - I lost Kate. This scene was CRAZY! I felt super tense about it. I honestly didn't think my answers had a ton of weight. I didn't even give a second thought to most of them and thought a storyline was supposed to run its course. I was wondering if you could even save her and what that would be like. I think I got close? It was weird. She was going in and out of stepping off and then jumping. At one point she said she would come with me and then the family member question came - I answered mother. This is one in hindsight I should have known. I snooped around her room a ton and read everything - the verse, her dad's card, her mom's email. I honestly was going to answer sisters, but I thought she would appreciate if I talked positively about her mom and GAVE HER HOPE. But all I did was give her hope on her fast track to hell. Sigh... - Blamed Nathan for Kate's suicide attempt. I talked to the officer and he came across a LOT nicer and I like the teacher and don't remember Kate crying because of him anyway. Plus Prescott is a douche. No issue with this pick, though I wanted to pick none of the above to avoid issues. Minor decisions: - Watered my plant - Helped Alyssa - Was friendly with Taylor - Erased the link to Kate's video on the mirror - Didn't write "Max was here" on the wall - Accepted Warren's invitation - Did not gain access to the party - after seeing that was the other option, I wish I would have taken a different route. But I hate that chick and told her I didn't give a RIP about her stupid party! - Did not help Warren - I was super confused here though. It wasn't clear the potassium blew up in his face, and once I added "a shit ton of potassium", it wouldn't let me interact with him again - I didn't tell on David - I honestly don't remember my conversation with Mr. Jefferson, but I felt like I was very passive aggressive standing up for Kate. Oh well.

Overall, I'm really enjoying this game more than I thought I would. I initially tried it on Xbox when it was free, never got into it. Uninstalled it. Then installed it again and started through it but didn't continue. But I'll definitely be finishing this game. Already got a friend wanting to play it too. I'm enjoying it a lot.

Just finished episode 3.

I wasn't sure about the going way in the past thing. This is where things get confusing because you change one thing and now everything is different. I hate that thought if I ever were to get the opportunity to save someone I cared about. But seeing Chloe roll up in that wheelchair made my jaw drop. Super interested to see what happens. But the next time on...video, it seems that Max is back to original stuff? But I can't be sure. I don't know if the future is now stuck with the changes or not. Can't wait for ep 4, but it will have to wait until tomorrow.

My favorite thing to do in this series is save Alyssa
