Zing! Bringing this thread to the surface.

I saw the animation for The Wolf Among Us and couldn't pass it up because hooooly trout I love love love comic-style animation. It's absolutely stunning and I am so pleased. The fact that it's based on a comic book doesn't hurt, either! The storyline seems like it's a fairytale gone wrong and turned intensely dark with fantasy characters inhabiting New York. I am all about dark twists to things and am enjoying it so far. It's silly to see little characters like slumlord Mr. Toad with a cockney accent dropping f-bombs left and right and generally swearing up a storm. Also, I like that there seems to be a world of possibilities of the storyline based on what choices you make.

If I had a complaint to make, it's that you are supposed to be the Big Bad Wolf but the voice doesn't entirely fit. Also, I am finding the gameplay a little difficult to get used to. I just beat the hell out of someone who I'm guessing is supposed to be The Woodsman (because an ax was involved, I guess, I dunno) and it took me a bit to realize what the prompting was trying to get me to do. (confirmed he was the woodsman) It's not really clear when the dialogue sequences end and you're able to function in the game again because there is no transition.

The file is pretty small and it doesn't look like there's much depth to it, but it's episode one out of five so I hope they keep cranking them out.
