Oh memememe!!! me!
Ummm... if BTTF Ep.1 was a juicy steak, then Ep.2 represents the mashed potatoes that go beside it. Sure, they both taste good, but it's the same dish.
...took me 10 minutes to write that. Appreciate it.
Seriously speaking (if I am ever capable of such a thing), I did not dislike Ep.1. That doesn't mean that I liked it... I can write arguments as to why and how and when and where... but everything has already been said in other threads.
TellTale is awesome... but the game seems to be below their story-telling capabilities. Don't get me wrong, I played it, I enjoyed playing it... but not as much as their other games. I will play the rest of the episodes... hoping for a change in the difficulty level, at least.
I honestly feel like I am playing Dora the Explorer... with hints and walkthrough at the same time.
So, yeah...episode 2 is like Dora the Explorer with hints and walkthrough.

True. Putting aside my love for the MI series, I always felt that the story is what makes a game great.
My wife (who may or may not be dead) is out at sea with my arch enemy who now looks sexy (according to her "woof")?! I HAVE to go after her! Who knows what might happen!?
My best friend is trapped in the past, in jail, and I am using a DeLorean double to go back and save him from...gangsters who want to kill him. Uh-huh. So...why don't we just blow up the jail? Ah, ok, I guess that's an argument... sooo how come the DeLorean is coming to pick me up? Ah, I get it...an auto-retrieval-thingie...right... you built that...uh-huh...
...why is the DeLorean in one piece? Ah...multiple DeLoreans.... mmmhm.
ok, Doc, I can see you're fine in jail...lemme just run around, calmly, to get you out.

I honestly felt like I was running errands.
With hints and walkthrough.
Actually, in episode two they even included camera pans.
"How do I get Einstein off the roof?"
Camera pans to old Doc in building.
...
If they were going for an interactive movie experience, they nailed it. Otherwise...
I don't know how you like to play games, Doodo, but I understand how you feel about this game and I'm really sorry you can't enjoy it. It is an enjoyable experience...if you're not expecting to play a game.
