I'm kind of confused about the episodic nature of this game. What's the point when each episode came out so close together?

To emulate a TV show season release schedule. Revelations 1 had the same concept except it wasn't exactly a budget title like this one.

Ok, well that sounds lame, especially considering I dislike the current model for TV shows =p

All it really did was add a recap of the previous/last chapter you played when starting a new chapter or resuming your game. It was a really nice touch. When the story moves a lot like Revelations 1 did, it works well.

1. It pushes people to purchase the digital version over the physical copy. (No returns to gamestop.)

2. It's subverts review scores because most will ignore them once they already start playing episode 1.
