It's genuinely sad that we live in a day and age where a hipsters opinions are so prevalent that you can dismiss such a fantastic game with such an insulting score, and people will take you seriously.
Look, I get that the game was overhyped and overrated, and I can agree with this. But Jesus Christ, a 4/10? You're completely out of your mind. Nothing about the game was broken, nothing about the game was so inherently awful that you could justify such a pathetic score.

'The issue is that in shaping Bigby's responses, I really just wanted to know what Bigby would do rather than choosing myself.'

If you don't want to be in control of the lead characters choice of dialogue and overall decisions, why are you even playing a Telltale game? A game that's driven by its story and player choice gives the lead character consequences to said choices.. and that's a bad thing? If you're so concerned with making Bigby the 'Big Bad Wolf' kind of character, then play him that way. You're not ruining the character, as you ARE the character.

As for the hints towards how particular characters respond to what you say and do, those can be turned off in the options menu. But a Telltale Games veteran should be well aware of this, right? Right.


Look, I accept that we all have different opinions, and alternate reviews aren't really a bad thing.. but it sounds like you're going for the hipster crowd with such a low score. You spend as much time talking about Beyond and TWD than you do this game, rationalizing such a low score.

@NYSailorScout Don't be a troll. BioShock: Infinite is clearly far more deserving of a better score than a 4, regardless of your hipster drivel.

@LADIES_MAN_2013 No one wants to publicly acknowledge that they masturbate, me thinks.

@55584623 As you said, eventually the tech will become dated, and the software will have to be tweaked accordingly. Consoles always fall behind the times, always.

You know, I usually come onto GameSpot and see people talking about how graphics don't make a game.. but for some reason, whenever the discussion of frame rates come up, everyone seems to be completely and totally fine with sacrificing their response time in light of some prettier lighting effects, or intricate textures. Isn't that a little contradicting?

A game is about how it plays.. and a higher frame rate = smoother gameplay, faster response times, and so on. Graphics are great, I love being able to play a mechanically sound game that looks beautiful.. but a smoother frame rate makes everything about a game far easier to appreciate, even if graphics are sacrificed in response, because at least the game is more playable.
