Ixamyakxim: Have you played the Game of Thrones one? I wouldn't snatch it up now but I'm mildly curious if it should be on my radar. My one fear is that these games, at their heart are "Click Here To Continue" and little else. Any insight?

Also, welcome back yes? Are you one of the people who went away recently?
No, I don't have that one yet, it's still too expensive for me. I own the two Walking Dead games and Wolf Among Us on Steam. I really really recommend Wolf Among Us, definitely snap that up if nothing else. It's true that your choices don't have that much impact. There are usually a couple of important ones that make a difference and the rest more or less leads to the same outcome. I still have fun choosing the different responses and sort of roleplaying, though. It's definitely more of a cinematic experience than anything else, so if you find choice and consequence super important, be warned that most choices don't have a lot of impact. It's fun seeing how characters respond to you, though, and the fact that you only have a set time to choose an option to respond makes it more exciting, as you have to go with your initial choice. There are also some QTEs in battle scenes and the like, those require some timed button mashing.

Correct, I went to England for a week, which was a lot of fun. Thanks for the welcome back. :P

genkicolleen: I can't speak for GoT, but I *have* played the Walking Dead games and A Wolf Among Us... They never felt like visual novels to me... and as you may have guessed from my excitement, the TWD games are among my absolute favorite games, period.
Thanks for this! So it sounds like I can be pretty comfortable in there being enough there for me. I actually remember reading a preview for A Wolf Among Us and being intrigued by the (very oddly awesome!) premise. Since you've played the others, I think I read on the front page here that GoT was up to episode 4 of 6 (I could have this slightly wrong) - do the episodes come out fairly regularly / quickly?

LOL oh yeah of course. Thanks also for your responses - food for thought. I think I have enough for my interest to be piqued - I'll keep an eye on these for when I work through some of the "higher priority" morsels on my gaming plate ;)

Ehh, it can be 2+ months between episodes, which is why I was happy that I didn't get into TWD until right before Season 2 came out -- the waiting is a killer! >_< Still, I'm anxiously waiting for Season 3 to come out. So good!

As for A Wolf Among Us, it's very very dark. Of course TWD is too, but the dark aspects of AWAU were a bit hard for me to handle. Glad I played it, but I doubt I'll ever re-play it. TWD on the other hand, I've re-played multiple times!

Hm, I can't seem to get into TWD as much as I got into Wolf Among Us. The dark fairytale aspect of the latter appeals much more to me than the zombies of the former. :P

genkicolleen: [...]

Also, I have a job interview this afternoon -- in about four hours -- and just heard back on another job I applied for, saying that I've passed the first hurdle, and they'll be calling me for an interview in the next few weeks. What a great birthday!

*Ginormous happy HUGS for everyone* ^__^
Sending waves of positive energy your way regarding the job front.

And a very Happy Birthday, may you get a big fat present in the form of landing a job you'd love to do.

FearfulSymmetry: No GOG, what are you doing, putting the Telltale games on here? Don't tempt me so! :P
Hello, stranger! Welcome to the conversation thread. I see you are from the Netherlands, we have another lovely user from there, but the last we saw she was leading a raiding party and sacking Southern England (rumour had it she was so destructive that it caused a mini-earthquake.) :-)
