I liked the gay couple quite a bit.

[spoiler]Yes because gays are always kind to strangers. Too bad I saw them both die. Different note - Kenny was always such a pain the ass. :D[/spoiler]

[spoiler]I'm just not nearly as interested in this "season."  I love Clementine, but I'm not sure how completely realistic that an 11-12 year old girl would be the effective leader of a group and do all the essential tasks.  I'm also much less invested in the plot.  Maybe that's because I am playing the episodes one by one rather than binging, though.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]I think that's you still holding on to negative feelings about episode 1. After all, while Clem is assisting (and clearly a bit more rational than some of the adults around her - see Nick), I think it would be a bit much to say she is the effective leader of the group and does all the essential tasks.

One other driver might be that we are now playing Clem rather than just seeing her react. There has to be some tension in giving the player options/not restricting us simply to child-like reactions which might account for her feeling more grown up now.

I still like the game but on the whole could care less about most of the new people. While I cared about the peoples in the initial two groups, don't quite have that with any of these new folks. Of course, on some level that mimics some of the alienation shown in the show where you have characters noting how people will inevitably keeping passing through their lives.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]I guess that might be me.  I tried to be as responsible as possible and attempt to build bridges at the lodge.  There are more childish dialog options.[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Yeah I took Nick quite to task after the bridge incident but then at lodge was much more deceptive/conciliatory (so hid photo from Nick but then confessed to Walter). Well apart from the getting Alvin killed by my rotten emotional choice. -_-[/spoiler]

This is one game I am seriously considering paying full price for, but between having to wait for the episodes to release and my aversion to paying full price I have not yet.  I have come close a few times now though.

Well the full season 1 is out...though it looks pricier than I remember as initially it was available for $20 if you bought full season before all episodes were available.

Yeah I already finished Season 1, that's what makes me want to get Season 2 so bad.

Supposedly already though it isn't showing for me.

edit: Nevermind. It was just in-game bit that didn't work (still announcing that Episode 2 is available :D).
