Telltale Games

dfine1966 · 06/19/2011, 06:13 pm

I have a question? I played episode 1 through 4 on my old PC. It just died and I bought a new iMac instead. To play episode 5, do I have to load 1- 4 on my Mac and play them over again, or will I be able to play episode 5 without it. I guess I can play the mac version again if I have to, it might be fun playing straight through to prepare for the final version.

Let me know what you think?

No, it won't be neccessary. However, your 1931 'alias' (Sonny Crockett/Harry Callahan/whatever) might be forgotten by the characters so you'll be called one of them by default

[I upgraded to a new computer - old one on XP, new one on Win7 - between Ep 1 & 2. Didn't replay Ep 1, so my choice of alias was forgotten. Doesn't really matter though]

Oh, I forgot to say I did /reinstall/ Episode 1, but didn't play it again. I'm not certain that it's entirely necessary (certainly wasn't for earlier Telltale Games) but BTTF may be different in that there was only a season purchase and not an episode-by-episode one.

Nah, I uninstall each episode after playing and subsequent ones have worked fine. Not quite the same as never installing the previous ones at all, but I don't believe it's a prerequisite.
