Mhmm! Or find the save game slots for the PC version and copy + paste the slots to a different folder.

So this is possible?

I think so, though I haven't officially tried. I'm guessing it's likely because (at least on Windows) it looks like there's a folder named 'Telltale Games' (with all of Telltale's games there) with 'save_0.save' etc. files in 'The Walking Dead' folder.

You have three saves to begin with, and they will accompany you through the entire game (that means: You could be in episode 3, chapter 22 with the first save while the second is still at episode 1, chapter 8 and so forth). Every save slot represents one of your stories, so to speak. I don't know where you are with your save slots, but you can start episode 2 with every slot in which you've completed chapter 8 of episode 1 (i.e. in which you've finished episode 1).




If you want to know which of your save slots have a "finished" episode one, there is a way:

Yup, this works. The savegames are located in the folder "The Walking Dead" under "Telltale Games" in your "Documents" folder. Make a copy of the entire folder and store them elsewhere. Not the most elegant solution, but it works. Just make sure it's the entire folder you copy, not just the save files. You have to include the "SyncFs" folder and prefs file as well. That's how it worked for me today...

The "previously on the walking dead" feature seems to be implemented. Jake has recently answered the question if starting with episode 2 is possible and has explained about default story developments you're starting out with if you choose to do so. In his answer, he has mentioned such a summing-up for episode 1 choices at the beginning of episode 2 which should also hold true for those who have actually played episode 1:

9 times as I have 3 psn accounts each with the 3 save slots used couldnt seem to want to play anything else lol.

I played straight through to the end twice. I played a couple of extra times where I would end after an important decision and then start again. So those weren't real playthroughs since I didn't play to the end.

10??? I didn't find the game THAT re-playable. I would say maybe that wasn't so wise, but it's sort of Tell Tale's fault for being this late with episode 2.

We both are at faultI suppose. It is a little excessive, but this is how much I love TWD. I won't play ep 2 as much

Thanks Vain!!

[Vainamoinen]

Updated something just now. Those saves... something is not entirely right.

But you're welcome, of course...

[corruptbiggins]

I've only played the first episode once and I will do the same for all the remaining episodes. After that I'll probably play through it a few more times to explore the different choices.

Huh? I 'm a little slow, I don't get it.

[Vainamoinen]

I couldn't copy/paste the saves like I wanted to. More research needed and/or developer's explanation.

/all right, I think I figured this out. Will update my above post.

[Dildor]

Great post Vainamoinen, thanks for taking the time.
I was hoping that would be the case, because 3 slots didn't feel enough, especially because I'm letting my brother use one.

[trd84]

Three, 1st saved Carly, 2nd saved Doug, and 3rd tried to be as much of an asshole as possible.

[TWDfan]

I'm playing through it all once before I start replaying.

[Aexra]

just once
Cant redo things in RL wont redo it in this game.
I will have to live with the mistakes I made, maybe after all episodes are out and I am finished I wil start up a second play trough.
