I'm hoping the LP's will put that into context, though I am vaguely aware everyone hates that guy.

judging by his earlier tweet it sounds like they just want him to come out on stage and he really doesn't want to

also to be fair to Pat, RE3 is legit hard

Most of the comedy for me has come from Pat saying the absolute perfect thing right before he gets killed (basically the entirety of the first Nemesis fight).

Now that time has long since passed and I still know jack poo poo about it, are the Walking Dead LP's worth watching/listening to in the background?

The first one is excellent because the game is good and the commentary is great. The second one is just as good because the game is a poorly written load of old poo poo and Matt & Pat respond accordingly. Also, the outrage from idiots at the LP of the second game was utterly hilarious. I wont tell you what caused it because it's a huge spoiler, but oh my god. So good.

They're both worth it just for the constant burning hatred for Kenny from start to finish. To the point that there was enough material for 2 hour long compilations of just their hate for him ( here and here. )

For the guy that originally asked the question, the games are mostly standalone from the comics/show (other than a few cameos) so you aren't going to be lost if you know nothing about them. I haven't kept track of either in years but it was still a great LP to watch.

TWD 2 was also where telltale's formula for storytelling started to get really transparent, and it became really obvious that your choices didn't matter.

The TWD Season 2 lp winds up dragging a bit because they bear down on the Kenny hate, which is respectable, but they wind up passing up the chance to comment on how busted and poorly-written the rest of the plot is in the process. It's not bad but it's not as good as the first playthrough.

They both seemed to be having a good time mostly. And mostly it didn't seem to me that Matt was complaining so much as just saying "What, they put that in?" a few times. Which you would expect from somebody who isn't familiar with the mod. But at least Matt did change it up a bit instead of complaining about having vertical aim over and over and over.

Anyway here's Woolie at a steak eating contest.

TWD Season 2 is bad because Kenny is right about literally everything. Literally everything. He's a morally gray character but everything he does that can be seen as bad ends up as "look he was right about x all along"

You're only other option is Jane who is also terrible for a number of other reasons and winds up being a pretty terrible person.

I think it's a rule of discussing anything involving the Walking Dead that someone has to defend the unlikeable rear end in a top hat character because "they're the ones that would totally survive if this was a real zombie apocalypse!" Way way back when I still gave a poo poo about the show it happened at least once every season.

And the Walking Dead LPs were really good so you're also wrong about that.

I think he's the lesser of two evils due to him being right about literally everything but his writing in season 2 as was everyone elses was complete poo poo.

And the LP for season 2 was bad. I mean when the guys who did the game apologize for it being bad you don't have to go "No guys it was secretly really good." or try to use "u jus like kenny' as a scapegoat.

Seriously though why is this still being talked about

The beginning of Episode 3 is pretty good for this.

"I don't trust this guy he's been drinking the kool aid"

Kenny: Man I don't trust this guy he's been drinking some kool aid Clem

"OH OF COURSE YOU WOULDN'T TRUST HIM KENNY YOU gently caress"

F'r instance, you could mouselook in the original. Everything still autoaimed a bit but you at least had some more control over who the autoaim was favoring. Always felt super gank though. My dreams were shattered when Pat didn't strafe run. Also it would have been cool if he'd got the middle finger button working, that would have been a slam dunk with Pat.

DOS games though!!! Yessssss!

Edit: Mouse control in Doom was the loving weirdest, it was like you were standing on a segway.
