Critic Reviews for The Walking Dead: Season Two Episode 1 - All That Remains
As far as the score goes, on Steam The Walking Dead is only available as a single purchase. As there's no way to predict how it's going to shape up, however, we'll be scoring episodes on their own merits and relative to each other, with a look at the entire sweep once it's all in our hands. All That Remains does a great job of reintroducing the series, and switches things up in a way that could have tripped up harder than Lee over a tree branch yet feels like the only way the story could have been continued. As bleak and terrible as the Walking Dead universe is, it's great to be back in it... and of course, to be able to leave.
For those who played and enjoyed season of The Walking Dead, this is assuredly a must-buy. For those who haven't: clear your gaming schedule and get around to it as soon as possible.
"All That Remains" sets the stage for some great character development for Clementine, but there's not much payoff in this 90 minute episode.
Season 2 of @TelltaleGames' The Walking Dead is an excellent character analysis of Clementine with some harrowing moments.
Clementine is captivating, and The Walking Dead's hellish world still presents tough choices that must be made to persevere
All That Remains establishes characters and conflicts that may pay off in forthcoming episodes, but it doesn't stand up well on its own.
The Walking Dead Season 2 may be better as a whole but it falters in the first episode
While there's an intriguing setup here, 'All That Remains' starts the new season off slowly and fails to deliver a sensible and concrete outlook at the future. There are notably fewer meaningful choices to be found and the action scenes are without much suspense as Clementine is far too susceptible to be grabbed by a walker.
