TheErebus. Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I mean, from what I hear it's because the protagonist is a female. If that's true then...really? I mean, I can count tons of other games with good female protagonists yet I rarely ever hear them being praised or brought up. I get that the time travel thing is neat, but seriously, why is it so popular? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Contentration Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 Because it looks like it would be cell shaded but it isn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean the rewinding aspect yes, but it's no different than what TellTale have been doing for years now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maou Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I have been meaning to try it myself, alot of my friends here wants me to try it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Public_Stalker Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 (edited) It's because it's a telltale game where you can fix your mistake. AKA Easy mode. Edited March 19, 2015 by Public_Stalker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solandis Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I mean, I haven't heard about it. So how popular could it be really? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arKRazor Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I think many people wish they could go back and change how they acted/reacted in a given situation. A couple trivial seeming tweaks and all of sudden life goes a different direction.The game presents tools to go from a position of helplessness in a situation to one of strength/empowerment.

But in all honesty, it kinda ruins the choices and the impacts you make. I mean imagine if in a game like Mass effect, whenever an important choice was being made, you could rewind it so that you can choose another one. To me, it kinda seems like cheating.

In an almost all story game it's like a choose your own adventure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katakuna Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I don't know either. To someone that's never played it (me), it looks like most of the conflict is petty high school drama. Very riveting stuff, I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when you choose your own adventure and you make a choice, you suddenly decide "No wait, I change my mind, Imma go this way". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't argue with that. Different strokes for different folks though. In games like Mass Effect and Dragon Age I played at a snails pace. I had to reload my game a dozen times for every dialogue tree. It wasn't because I wanted to scum perfect results every time, but rather that I wanted to hear all the dialogue and take a peek at how things might've gone differently.
