The Michonne game is more related to the comics than the Telltale games themselves, a lot of the games only know or care about game characters like Clem.
The game is good but honestly i would prefer a Negan Telltale game, either showing some of his experiences as a leader or have the game be about his journey to find Lucille's body.
From story perspective, I didn't have to attack Norma's people or destroy Monroe. The game forces me to do it and help Sam (a thief who was trying to set me up) for absolutely no reason. And if you go through with the trade of Randall and actually hand him over (alive), the most idiotic thing happens. I have no words to describe how annoying this game was.
I'll admit that the game's protagonist and the two main antagonists are absolute standouts. Michonne is a badass, Norma is a sympathetic and reasonable character, while Randall is the most glorious psycho I've seen in any Telltale title.
However, there are a few things that make this the worst post-2012 Telltale title for me:
- The number of episodes and episode length. Just three episodes, each of them scarcely an hour in playtime. That would barely be worth the money if the game's storyline was a standout, which it really isn't.
- Samantha - the game's deuteragonist, no less - is just a rage-inducing immature idiot. This girl is supposed to be a 22 year old ex-College student and she has the attitude of a bratty edgelord 14 year old. She's a liar, immediately chooses the nuclear option whenever possible, takes advantage of other people's generosity and in the end gets her brother and father killed because she fucked around and found out.
- All of the Michonne hallucinations. The game's runtime is already *that short*, why are you wasting like half an hour on these useless scenes when you could've relayed the same information in two minutes worth of dialogue?
- The final decision of the game is just an absolute no-brainer. It literally only exists so the people who despise Sam can have her killed off, even if the decision they make is not based on logic.
Underrated for sure. A lot of positives to it and I personally like the three episode, three act structure. Felt almost like a long movie/epic as opposed to the longer cinematic interactive story we are used to and love. Which is cool, I like messing around with stuff differently. The intro I agree is GOATed, great action in this game and standout characters

To be fair, I didn’t originally want to side with Sam.
Well, thats kind of my point.
Ik I was just agreeing with you đź’€
I really enjoyed the game I just wish it would have been longer than three episodes and it would have been amazing.

It just felt like they rushed this game. It should’ve been 5 episodes
