Had to restart Steam

Do you use steamcloud? I think that would help, and I'm pretty sure it's uploaded automatically if you have it enabled.Is your save data stored online or locally on your PC? My gaming laptop died last week

Europe (PSN) gets the shaft again. We probably get it one or two weeks later.
I'm laughing internally if this is a QC issue because the Telltale engine is anything but quality. Walking Dead S02E03 was atrocious with the loading.

So about that very last decision...
Rumor has it on the Steam forums that episode 5 is coming out in September. I hope that's not the case. Loving this story more so than the Walking Dead's.
I went straight for the cigarettes, it just felt right.

Finished Ep4. Another good one. Can't wait to see how this all ends. Looks like all the choices I chose were super unpopular. FU guys, lol

. That ended perfectly to me. I guess they're all supposed to be badass. heh

what happen if you smoke?
You... pop out a cig and light it.
Pretty interesting episode so far. Though I'm half disappointed I couldn't pay off
the angry man played by Lees actor
Was lurking the TT forums earlier, and I'm really surprised to see so many people saying they finished EP4 in an hour. It took me 90 minutes to finish it just like episode 2 and 3, and it's not like you can rush through these games. The length should be pretty much the same for everyone, right? Is the episode shorter if you
first or something?
Anyway, I liked it a lot. Interesting new faces, cool dialog, deliciously cruel cliffhanger. Still not quite as good as EP1 but I'm still enjoying it.
go to the butcher

It's absolutely badass.
Bigby just steps a little bit closer withouth a word, slowly takes out the cig while the whole room is watching him, takes out the lighter, and when he flicks it open with a click the game cuts to black.
Great episode.
oh, he did the same thing with my option as well. guess it's the same for all of them except yours didn't talk.

That episode was fantastic, felt really short though (Only took me about an hour 15) but still really enjoyed it
If Telltales is going to end the episode in a cliffhanger, then this was the best way to do it. I chose lit the cigarette too.
I get that, it means it is not up yet so you will have to wait for 10 more hours.

Lovely. Good job Telltale. Top of your game as usual.
JustinBB7: The wait was short as well though right?
I heard anyway, never actually had to wait for an episode from telltale before now.
BTW I would normally quote but I don't want to see anything under the tags lol

To be fair they did say Wednesday for 360.

ooh man, episode 5 when
also anyone else notice
also anyone else notice
the guy who was in a bunch of background scenes in ep 1 was the taxi driver?
Yeah, I definitely made the right choice at the end. So badass.
Overall, a fantastic episode. It felt very short compared to the other episodes, but maybe that's just because I was enjoying it more than the others. The build up to the last episode is great, here's hoping they deliver.
Seriously, don't believe their lies. This definitely ranks among the best episodes of the season for me.
I'm so surprised that ginger man didn't turn out to be the Crooked Man, he must still have a major role to play...right? And was Nerissa implying that one of Bigby's friends is behind this during their interview?

Yeah I guess a lot of people didn't like episode 2 either, not as bad as this seems to be but I did enjoy episode 2.
People were saying it is the 4th episode curse for some reason though.
Lies? Compared to the previous episodes, this one did have the least impact imo. That does not mean that it was a bad episode though.
According to IGN the start and end were good and everything else was just filler.
The review was terrible though, so many spoilers in such a short review.
6/10 sounds about right
I have two key issues with the episode:
1) It feels like 2/3 of an episode. If you're going to make
end up being the crooked man, you can't end the episode there and think it's going to be all dramatic. Even if you went the
route (it's good they didn't, believe me), it would at least be dramatic enough to close the episode on. But if you're going to do what they did and make the reveal be someone who
, ending the episode there feels like an abrupt cut-off before an actual climax. Oh yeah, and the episode is even shorter than Ep 2.
2) SPOILERS

Mr. No Name
Bluebeard
we haven't seen before
2) SPOILERS
This could perhaps be called 1A, but this whole episode leading up to the reveal felt clumsy and rushed. We did a bit of research, earned a bit of info, and then "surprise, we're there!". This is no doubt made worse by making the crooked man someone we haven't even seen in passing before. I was mostly just like, "oh, it's you!...oh." I suspect Telltale is on thin ice thanks to the comic series, but they couldn't have handled an arc with potential in a less interesting way if they tried. I leave them the benefit of the doubt to make it better next episode, but this all felt pretty flaccid.
Dunno how to handle "the farm" thing.
I
too. Sad to hear that all options end in it, so it's not all that special anymore.
Episode was by far the shortest.
I didn't sent the pig back (I didn't say I won't I just said "we'll see". And the same to toad (had to reload since the option "It' wont last forever" will send him back). It's a bit of a weird thing. The way I see it: if you stay out of sight, it's somewhat okay.

Really enjoy how they are tying in the Urban Legends. That's a very different part of the Fableverse we've really never seen in the comics.
I really also loved the reference to the legend of the girl that lost her head when her husband removed her ribbon.

Decent episode, but as I feared given how soon this came out after episode 3, it was pretty short. I clocked in at about 1 hour 25 minutes. Its not even how short these episodes are getting but even just the limited amount of interaction you have outside of dialogue choices.
I'm still enjoying things but I feel like each passing episode of TWD or The Wolf Among Us is getting less and less interactive, whether that's from a gameplay sense or even just a making choices sense.
The episode was fun though.
I just hope TellTale takes their time with the last episode so that its like at least 2.5 hours long. That would be nice.

The Jersey Devil fight was fun. Is there any difference if you go to the Butcher first? Can you actually take off Nerissa's ribbon if you choose the action to remove it? I'd find it kind of funny if the game let you do that and her head just plopped off.

Oh, what the hell? Having just finished this episode, I was going to post about how I couldn't imagine a better option to end the episode on than that one, but I guess that's because there actually weren't any others.

Similar sentiment. Decent, but short.
On
Jersey: You still get to fight him if you go to Butcher first. You see Jack walk out when you come in, so maybe you wouldn't have missed him had you come earlier? I left Nerissa's ribbon on, so I don't know if you can. If her head plopped off, I'd be so sad!

Eh, short and uneventful, but a good lead in to the finale.

At this point, I'm not actually sure why you'd be looking up reviews for this for anything other than unfiltered opinion.
For how short these episodes are, the idea that anything short of complete banter is filler is pretty wild. Imagine if any RPG ever were held to these narrative standards, the writeup would be over before it began.
