Being out is kind of misleading for this game. It's being released episodically, and only the first two episodes are available currently. So you pay for the whole game, but can't play the whole game for a couple weeks after all the episode release. Think of it like a TV show, every week they plan on dropping another episode or two until the whole story is done. Looks like it's going to be 7 episodes.

I played it last night and it honestly feels like a TV show more than a video game, the actual game portion of it comes down to very simplistic quick time events, choose your own responses, and then the job loop of dispatching heroes which honestly is pretty basic stuff.

But I really enjoyed the story so far.

that's the point, it's an interactive story similar to telltale's games

so it's like every other telltale game. I mean, that's how all of them have been.

Yeah, the whole episodic thing kinda sketches me out. Will wait until all episodes drop before picking it up.

Demo was pretty cool

Blown away by the demo. Great artwork, awesome story, very funny. I'll have to try the full thing.

No way they're coming back.

Oh man, i miss their minecraft: story mode A LOT.

Only gonna be watching Jacksepticeye play this game(he is also one of the characters), from what I've seen so far the story and writing is exceptionally well done!
