*Cough* :oops:

Haven't been updating this since it's significantly less fun to do than, say, Fort Zombie. Transcribing and taking pictures of a linear story isn't as enjoyable as random gameplay. Still, I'll try to get off my ass and AT LEAST finish episode 1. Dunno about the rest, but since episode 2 isn't even out yet it's a moot point.

Please do keep it up, yes.

Also this definitely isn't so much an adventure game as much as a Quantic Dream-esque "cinematic experience" game, only not pretentious and shit.

Long time without an update, sorry bros. Will attempt to finish up episode 1 at bare minimum.

When we last left our hero, he and the rest of the gang got kicked off of Hershel's farm after a zombie misunderstanding. Kenny agreed to drive Lee and Clem to Macon, where Lee's family lives.

Pop! Splutter! Sounds of a truck dying/running out of gas!

Well, this is as far as we're going.

Then it's far enough.

The whole group runs toward Hatman, and Gunwoman takes a few more potshots and follows.

Everyone enters the drugstore, and hatman slams the gate shut and padlocks it.

Conveniently, that was a fairly short checkpoint with no clicking and no player input at all, so I'll take a break there.
Coming up next time on the Walking Dead, talking! Shouting! Gesticulating! Candybars?

Did he really have to

Did he really have to lock it? With a difficult to open spinlock? Now they'll never be able to use that trick again without opening the lock(Hope they remember the combo!) or cutting it off... he could have just hung it there, unlocked.

It'll come in to play later, but I'll just say YOU'RE RIGHT!

ITZ TIME. After much procrastination (And being busier than I thought which lead to wanting to play other videogames instead) it's finally time for a Walking Dead update!


veNeo.jpg
We can't keep taking risks like this!
NKFax.jpg
And we can't just let people die, either.
veNeo.jpg
When I SAY "that door stays shut no matter what" I fucking MEAN it.
We don't know who these people are; they could be dangerous!
FPU3H.jpg
We have kids with us.
JE7GP.jpg
I see ONE little girl.

Clem grabs Lee's hand and stares at him while everyone argues in the background.
FPU3H.jpg
What is it?
rikhW.jpg
I... I have to pee.
FPU3H.jpg
In a minute Clem.

Y91Yg.jpg
They've got kids, Lilly.
veNeo.jpg
Those things outside don't care.
hl9Gb.jpg
Maybe you should go join 'em then. You'll have something in common!

In the background you can notice Clem sneaking off, but there's nothing you can do about it.

FPU3H.jpg
She's the leader here.
But it looks like she's losing control of her people. *? Lilly noticed what you said*
veNeo.jpg
If you were in my shoes you'd be...
JE7GP.jpg
Ho-ly SHIT.

The guy looks over at Duck and Katya.

5OqUH.jpg

JE7GP.jpg
We have to end this now.
hl9Gb.jpg
Over my dead body.
JE7GP.jpg
We'll dig one hole.
yFFvF.jpg
No! I'm cleaning him up! There's no bite, he's fine!
JE7GP.jpg
Don't you fucking people get it! We've already SEEN this happen. We let someone with a bite stay and we all end up bitten!
hl9Gb.jpg
Shut up!
JE7GP.jpg
We gotta throw him out! Or smash his head in!
yFFvF.jpg
Kenny! Stop him!
hl9Gb.jpg
Lee, what do we do about this guy?
FPU3H.jpg
It's either him or your son. I say it's him. *? Kenny will remember your loyalty* (Not really what I intended to answer given our Lee choices, but sometimes the dialog wheel-esque talkies can bite you in the ass with vague descriptions. LEIK ZAMBIE)
hl9Gb.jpg
Goddamn right; out on HIS ass with those THINGS.
NKFax.jpg
Everyone CHILL THE FUCK OUT!
veNeo.jpg
Nobody is doing ANYTHING!
JE7GP.jpg
Shut up, Lilly!
And YOU. (Turns to gunchick) Shut the fuck up. They will find us and they will get in here, and none of this will fucking matter.
But right now we're about to be TRAPPED in here with one of those things.
hl9Gb.jpg
What the hell are you talkin' about?
JE7GP.jpg
He's bitten! That's how you TURN.
yFFvF.jpg
He's not bitten!
Lee, stop this! It's upsetting him!
FPU3H.jpg
What if this was your daughter?
JE7GP.jpg
NEVER would've happened.
She's not some snot nosed toddler, ok? She's United States Air Force.
hl9Gb.jpg
Oh fuck you AND her!
I'm gonna kill, him, KAT. Just worry about Duck!


Meanwhile over on the other end of the pharmacy,

rikhW.jpg
Lee!
FPU3H.jpg
Yeah?
3i9FR.jpg

FPU3H.jpg
It's just locked. Key's behind the counter. Probably.
JE7GP.jpg
Hey, I'm not the bad guy here, I'm just looking out for my daughter!
hl9Gb.jpg
No, you're just the guy arguing for killing a kid!
JE7GP.jpg
He's covered in muck! She'll find the bite. WATCH.
hl9Gb.jpg
She won't.
JE7GP.jpg
And if she DOES?
The first thing he'll do is sink his teeth into his mom's face.
FPU3H.jpg
Then we do what you say. We toss him out and save the group.
hl9Gb.jpg
Lee?! What the fuck man? *? You didn't side with Kenny*
FPU3H.jpg
What other choice is there?
JE7GP.jpg
FINALLY. Someone gets some sense. But we can't wait - we are tossing him out NOW!!!
FPU3H.jpg
You're right, man. That boy is a timb bomb. *? You didn't side with Kenny*
JE7GP.jpg
Then it's settled.
hl9Gb.jpg
LEE?! This is my boy Lee! My boy! We can't!
FPU3H.jpg
I'm sorry, Kenny. He's right. This is about survival.

qeUFN.jpg


hl9Gb.jpg
Not a goddamn scratch, what do you think about that...
JE7GP.jpg
It's Larry. And I'm fucking sorry.
hl9Gb.jpg
Good.
veNeo.jpg
Look, we're fish in a barrel here. With all the commotion we could be under siege any minute.
hl9Gb.jpg
Then we better start fortifying this place. I'll work on getting that window barricaded.
veNeo.jpg
Good. Dad, sit down.
JE7GP.jpg
I'm FINE, Lilly.
veNeo.jpg
Dad... Please.
JE7GP.jpg
Alright.
rikhW.jpg
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

RbPlt.jpg

TOILET ZAMBIE STRIKES!
wG7NO.jpg

FPU3H.jpg
CLEMENTINE!

Lee SPRINGS IN TO ACTION!
zM6yj.jpg

And bumps against Lilly!
N0mJS.jpg

DAMN BUTTERY LILLY!

And unfortunately this plays out a bit differently than I intended since I was busy taking screenshots, but I'll roll with it since WHAT THE HELL.
oTmmu.jpg

Blurry Lee-vision as zambie scooches up on Clem.
ecK9X.jpg

BANG! Zambie is slain.
1yKKs.jpg


Y91Yg.jpg
Uh... Guys? *? Clementine will remember you didn't save her*

The distinct sounds of zambies slapping a building starts after the gunshot.

wyQ8T.jpg

Dunno why you're hiding behind Lee, Clem. He's too buttery to save you.

JE7GP.jpg
They're gonna get in!
hl9Gb.jpg
SHUT UP.

Distant sounds of machineguns kick in, and the zambie-slapping slows/dies down.

FPU3H.jpg
Is that the military?
veNeo.jpg
I don't know.
Y91Yg.jpg
Thank God for whatever it is.
JE7GP.jpg
We almost DIED because of this bitch and her itchy trigger finger! That was stupid! That was--
QcJFw.jpg

DAMN BUTTERY HEART!
veNeo.jpg
DAD!
JE7GP.jpg
Ahh!

Larry collapses on the ground clutching his chest.

FPU3H.jpg
Was HE the one bitten?!
veNeo.jpg
NO. Don't be crazy!
It's his heart!
JE7GP.jpg
My pills...
yFFvF.jpg
Uh-um... Nitroglycerin pills?
veNeo.jpg
YES. We're out. We've been trying to get into the pharmacy since we got here! Please, try to get in there! Behind the counter where the pills are!
FPU3H.jpg
There's probably another entrance. Maybe through the office.
NKFax.jpg
How do you know that's an office?
FPU3H.jpg
Educated guess.
veNeo.jpg
It doesn't matter.
We need nitroglycerin pills. Please get in there. I'll keep an eye on my dad.
hl9Gb.jpg
Everyone else should get comfy and look for anything useful. We could be in here a while.
Y91Yg.jpg
I'm starting to think this drugstore isn't a permanent solution.
hl9Gb.jpg
You're right. This ain't exactly Ft. Knox.
FPU3H.jpg
What do you suggest?
Y91Yg.jpg
We need as much gas as possible so we can ALL get out of downtown Macon, fast.
FPU3H.jpg
Agreed.
Y91Yg.jpg
Then I'll head out and get gas.
There's a motel not too far from here, out towards the end of Peachtree. I'll work my way towards it and then loop back, siphoning what I can.
FPU3H.jpg
Damn, that'd be great.
Y91Yg.jpg
Well, it's gotta get done. Plus, I'm quick and I know Macon.
FPU3H.jpg
Local?
Y91Yg.jpg
Born and raised.
FPU3H.jpg
If you're going to do that, here's a walkie-talkie if you get in a tight spot. Hopefully you won't need it.

Lee passes his walkie-talkie over to Hatman.

Y91Yg.jpg
Cool.
FPU3H.jpg
Clementine's got the other one. Check in with her and get back here as soon as you can.
hl9Gb.jpg
And you? What's your name?
veNeo.jpg
It's Lilly. My dad's Larry.
hl9Gb.jpg
Keep a good eye on him. These boys will work on getting you your medicine.
FPU3H.jpg
That's right.
hl9Gb.jpg
And you, you keep an eye on that front door. You're our look-out.
THPD9.jpg
It's Doug. You got it.
NKFax.jpg
And I'm Carley.
hl9Gb.jpg
Ok, Carley, you'll shift in with Doug when he needs it. For now, get some rest - you're a good shot and I'd like to keep it that way.
NKFax.jpg
You got it boss.

Lilly gives a look like she's none too pleased about Kenny taking over as group leader instantly.



And that's it for this update!
Coming up next time on the Walking Dead, candybars! More talking! More talking! More talking!

Insert clever insult here
Well, how's that for a piss-poor plot development. Didn't make much sense at all - what with the possibility of a total flip-flop when it comes to the kid, then Kenny magically taking over the group and Lee railroaded into helping Larry the Gigantic Asshole while everyone else just nods and goes along.

Also, Lee is the most useless protagonist ever. Brilliant.

Lee is an hero. Despite having two left feet and two left hands and being covered in butter, he still prevails. How can you not admire this man :salute:

Gonna bump this thread to page 4, got a quite large update coming in a sec and I don't really wanna cram it on the same page as these two updates.
