If I wasn't such an achievement-whore I would have never finished this game when I did. What a chore to slog through.

The Walking Dead: A New Frontieris an episodic graphic adventure game based on Robert Kirkman's The Walking Dead comic book series developed by Telltale Games. It is Telltale's third season of its The Walking Dead series. The game employs the same narrative structure as the past seasons, where player choice in one episode will have a permanent impact on future story elements. The player choices recorded in save files from the first two seasons and the additional episode "400 Days" carry over into the third season.
Clementine, who was the player's companion during the first season and the player-character in season two returns as a player-character along with another player-character, Javier "Javi" Garcia.
The game takes place in the same fictional world as the comic, with the zombie apocalypse having occurred. The main characters of the game are original characters, however due to time skips in season two and between seasons two and three, the timeline is caught up to where the comics are.

Ugh, this was definitely the worst of all the seasons! I didn't care about any of the protagonists and really just wanted to stick to Clem.

Read moreUgh, this was definitely the worst of all the seasons! I didn't care about any of the protagonists and really just wanted to stick to Clem. After having played the first two seasons with a huge focus on Clem, it was the worst decision for them to focus on someone else - especially an entire family that is so annoying, with shallow relationships and awfully contrived action. I would recommend just skipping this game completely and watching Clem's and AJ's scenes on YouTube or somewhere.

Felt very disappointed in the story. It wasnt compelling with many annoying characters and felt like a lot of it didn't make sense. The only good part was seeing Clem again.

Not as great as previous games, as this time the focus is not on Clementine (!!) but the new characters are interesting enough to carry the whole thing.
Also a bit short. I'll just wait for the sequel to get the real "Walking Dead 3" experience.

Just finished Episode 2 and I gotta say this is the glitchiest, worst voice acted game of the bunch. They tried hard to improve certain things, especially when it came to the consequences of decisions, and it seems like the writing suffered instead.

Update: I finished the game, and although I do admit to sort of liking the main character, I can't say the same for any of the other chars. Of course I love Clem, but that is hardly thanks to Season 3. Most decisions this season offers don't really change anything (you decide to save someone and they die anyway...), and the moments where I would have liked a say in the matter, were not up for debate (in one of the episodes you get the choice to lie to your friends in 3 different ways, but you don't get the option to simply tell them the truth...).
All in all this is far away from the quality of seasons 1 and 2.
