    It's GREAT. Waiting on E5&6.

    Why are useful idiots using bluesky?

    Haven't they learned anything about centralization and private platforms?

    I'm told this is more of interactive fiction than an actual game, and while replayability is low, I don't tend to replay games so, who cares :)

    It looks good and I like the premise, though I still have some superhero fatigue.

    It has a little more gameplay than past telltale games with its dispatch sections (a bit of strategy, deciding which heroes go on what calls), but otherwise you are right, it's a fancy choose your own adventure game. They have done some interesting things with superhero tropes so far (e.g., superheroes working out of a corporate call center), but it's a bit early to tell if they'll subvert some of my expectations for the "final boss".

    I've enjoyed Telltale games in the past (specifically Tales from the Borderlands and Batman), so I'll likely pick this one up later during a sale.

    I'm one of those who are waiting for the final episode to be released before I dive in! Super excited to try it though!

    Are the "minigames" not too tedious ? I love Telltale games, for the story. I really disliked when they tried to implement too much "active gameplay" like they did with the last season of The Walking Dead (which had more shooting / action sequence), or The Expanse that felts like a walking simulator with barely any story

    Still glad they're making a good comeback

    Half the game is cutscenes in the form of a show, the other half is a rather fun management sim, where you balance your 'heroes' and calls coming in. Keep in mind, the choices you make in the story portion affect the management portion. I made Jack mad, and that led to a really rough shift. I whole heartedly recommend it. Even as is, since each episode takes about an hour.

    Thanks, I think I'm gonna take it anyway, but I'll wait for a GOG release (when all episodes are available)

    I don't trust episodic games and DRM, I've seen too many issues of people locked out of their games/episodes

    It's on my list.

    Right after my current replay through Rogue Trader and putting a couple dents in my pile of shame.
