The Walking Dead 2
The Walking Dead was just as i thought it would be, interactive decision making. Ironically, the first Telltale game i played was the Jurassic Park game (which was questionably decent), but while playing TWD, it reaffirmed my trust in Telltale. The first thing i learned was to be extremely observant on whats going on on the screen, because i missed the prompt to feed the do and payed the price by having to put him down which i really didn't want to do. It also made it extremely obvious that choices mean a lot whether its showing two basic options, save yourself or save others. Overall, I would defiantly recommend this game to others as well as get the game for myself because the story interests me and i'm curious how many different outcomes can happen for situations.
Portal
When i first heard of portal it was from the second game, Portal 2, so my expectation for Portal was a bit skewed, i figured it would be two player in some sort of form, but i was not disappointed by a single player game. I really had to think about how the portal interacted wt the environment to figure out some of the puzzles which i really appreciated the challenge rather than to breeze through a level but not to the point where you rage quit a difficult level. As i advanced through the levels, I could tell a distinct and growing disdain from Glados, the ai, I figured that she didnt really care about my characters life and viewed me as an experiment. (Also, i figured the whole"the cake is a lie" meme)
Dota 2
As i figured with this game, it was point and click on a busy screen, with so many different option but with surprisingly little reaction from your character on screen. The movement ingame was tedious and took way too long to move across the map, if we could directly move our character, but unfortunately its controlled by point and click. Quickly i noticed my interest in playing this diminished quickly due to the odd controls and uninteresting game play. Overall, I have no clue why/how people enjoy it apart that they enjoy frustration.
