The Walking Dead: The Final Season - Episode 2 Reviews
It's easily the best episode in this season overall it was a quiet episode, it started strong and ended in an exciting way. However, events in between didn't bring anything big even tho we are so close to the end of the series.

The first episode in this last season was a good one, as we got to see an older and wiser clementine as a badass teenager who was taking care of AJ as much as AJ was watching her back, and the gameplay changes that made the exploration segments more fun while also allowing everything to look a lot better – in part by the new third-person perspective and in part thanks to the new graphics art style.
Episode 2: Suffer the Children gets off to fiery and heart-pounding start in the aftermath of the previous episode, as the various characters begin to draw their battle lines regarding their own morality of the situation.
As it is, this The Walking Dead Final Season Episode 2 - Save the Children is just as good as the first episode. It introduces more plot twists, which fans of the previous seasons are bound to appreciate. The previous instalment, understandably, spent more time setting the scene and theme for the rest of season. This time, things move forward a bit more, as expected. In and of itself, Episode 2 is good, though the performance adjustments on Switch are questionable. Unfortunately, the changes seem to be here to stay. The series is getting an ending though, and it is coming soon. Let's hope it's worth the long wait!
The Walking Dead: The Final Season Episode 2 – Suffer The Children was always going to be the more undermined episode in needing to lay down the groundwork for what’s to come. It’s the seasonal point of a series structure that shifts from the introduction of the cast members into the darker depth of what could potentially lie ahead.
Suffer the Children isn’t awful. There are some clear high points here which have us interested in what comes next, but it is, unquestionably, some of Telltale’s worst work. Considering the circumstances behind the scenes, it’s completely understandable, but also a real shame since it follows one of their best episodes in years.
Even with the ghostly pale of an unfinished game hovering over it, the second episode of The Walking Dead: The Final Season is still among Telltale's finest work. Here's hoping they get a chance to release the remaining two episodes.
The first episode of Telltale's The Walking Dead: The Final Season left Clementine in a difficult situation. Set in a new group with a whole new set of problems Clementine must assure the survival of A.J. under these tough circumstances. Telltale's The Walking Dead: The Final Season - Episode 2 Suffer the Children does a lot to answer questions and set up for the next episode, focusing more on the personal relationships of the new group.
The second episode of the season takes us further into the end of both Clementine's and AJ’s campaign. Though much wasn’t expanded on compared to the first episode, this is one you still won’t want to miss.
As heartfelt and emotionally painful as Episode Two of The Walking Dead: The Final Season may be, I can't help but feel like we've seen this all before. The groundwork has been laid for a brutal war, and everything from now until then seems to be dwarfed in comparison. Friendships are still the beating heart of this Final Season though, and it's the moment to moment interactions between characters, and the writing, where this second episode excels.
For now, the future of the final season is up in the air and we can’t be sure as to what will happen with the two remaining unpublished episodes. If this is the last, we see of Clementine its been a bittersweet adventure, one which I hope gets the ending it deserves.
