Default Best ep. so far?

I'd say 2 > 3 > 1, imo. Though they're all great, and 2 + 3 are pretty darn close for me.

When I was just done with EP3 I thought it was the best thing ever. But when I played through EP1 and EP2 again I decided EP2 is the winner. It was the perfect mixture to me. EP1 was really good but it was more of an introduction and fell a bit short compared to 2 and 3.

2>3>1

I think I would go with 2>3>1 as well If I have to grade them though they would all receive an excellent mark.

That's a tough one. My favourite scene is in episode three, but overall I have to say episode one. It established the characters well and I liked the variation in scenery.

long road ahead was more emotions than anything. starved for help was more about survival and how to work with the group. a new day well its a introduction to the series so yea. i picked ep. 2 because it had a good story or something that made me connect with the episode. ep. 3 also had a connection but it was more emotions than survival so yea Ep. 2 imo the better episode

For me it was 1>2>3.
On episode 1 I was so excited what would happen and how my choices play out.
Episode 2 the whole plot about the St. Johns being cannibals was too obvious but it was still decent and the illusions of my choices was still somewhat believable.
Episode 3 with the death of Carley and Doug at the same situation and testing the "leaving with Lilly" after sticking to her for 100% of the time since the beginning of the game I realised how the choices have no impact at all, so it was by far the worst episode.

I don't care about EP4 or 5 anymore, just wanna see the ending of EP5.

i think 2>3>1 but 2&3 are very close, but that may change because when i decided to do a full play through of all the episodes they felt different this time, its hard to say what felt different but it did

3=2>1
I cannot really decide between the last two episodes. Ep. 2 and 3 were great. I just do not know which episode was better. Episode 1 was good too, but the two other episodes were definitely better.

3>2=1 In my opinion. This episode (3) was absolutely fantastic and I believe TTG really captured the spirit of "The Walking Dead". I'll never complain again about a release date. They're going to have a very hard time topping episode 3 for me, haha.

For me it's 2>3=1

2 had the most dilemmas and reasons for multiple playthroughs for me.

1 only really had Doug/Carley, and 3... I'm still not entirely sure but it was the easiest for me to handle, no real second guessing and I hadn't died once. Maybe I've gotten to know the characters enough to know where my allegiances lie by this point. It was still a great episode, just not really... challenging?

Cool

I love the point in episode 2, where Lee bursts into the dining room and shouts "It's People!" I really enjoyed episode 3 a lot, but the whole demented family, cannibals story line was just awesome.

Definitely the second episode. The third episode seemed too short and sad for me.

Episode 3 for me mainly because it was the first time a game really got to me emotionally.

3=2>1 for me. 1 was good, and while I figured out that they were cannibals halfway through 2, the choice in the meat locker and the brawl qith Andy in the rain were so epic. The first time I felt actually bad in the game. 3 showed just how bad things had gotten, with us seeing Macon for the first time since 1. My only gripe about 3 was that they should have put whoever you DIDN'T save from 1 in the pharmacy as a walker. My favorite part of 3 was when my hope died, right after Carley did.

1, 3, 2

I am kinda weird in that the first part of the ZA is what appeals to me the most. I like watching the outbreak or whatever and how it impacts people. The early days are just my favorites. In this series that is still true. I think the combination of the systematic societal breakdown in conjunction with introducing the main characters who are just average people thrust into insanity is awesome to witness.

I didn't care much for the cannibalism theme of the second epi which is why I rated it last. I thought it would be much later realistically that people would turn to eating humans...not just within a couple of weeks or months of the catastrophe. Unless of course they had been eating people all along.

The 3rd epi still didn't outrank the 1st to me, but it was compelling and somewhat engaging.

I had an honest but negative remark that I removed because I'm usually better than that.

I found the COP-conversation right at the beginning of EP1 very cool. Wished there was more like that. Thats why I think EP1 was very good. The opening couldn't have been any better.
