answered, it has quicktime events

[Rockets]

All I care about is that it doens't have quicktime events.

Update: not interested, it has quicktime events

Buying the game does include the other episodes, you're paying for the entire season, although episode 1 and 2 have only been released thus far with the rest being released in the next few months.

It does have quicktime event but they aren't difficult and are more about learning certain aspects from characters rather then pushing buttons to move or do an action like in some telltale games.

I've loved the game, if u like a kind of steampunk, mystery, decisions matter (they really do) and a lot of intrigue, good characters, story and lore, I'd wholly recommend this!

LOL, you're gonna rule out on an entire game based on that?! You didn't even bother to read the rest of his response. What a child xD

Grow up dude.

Seen OP in a few places now. This sounds like the usual reaction he gets from people.

I know I hate quicktime events.

When you know you hate something, you know it.

It doesn't have Quicktime Events in the same way as other games do. There are no button prompts over the screen. There are times where the game pauses and if you are fast enough you can click on something to get extra info. You do not lose the game for failing (or get a chance to try again), all that happens is you miss out on some character insight and a little XP.

So far, this game has no fail states. You can safely skip all 4 (maybe 5?) of these events and finish the game just fine.

WTF, does it have quicktime events or not? Make up your mind.


I can tell you right now, I hated Witcher 2. Thought that ♥♥♥♥ was the dumbest game I ever played. I quit at the combat just after the dragon bridge and got a refund. Press x to avoid the dragon was the dumbest thing I have seen in a game in the decade prior. And I played both Dinodickedup and war z.

I also got a refund on the ♥♥♥♥ Talestories whatever it is had for Game of Thrones.
In the first game of thrones storying thing, they had a ton of the quicktime events. I wasn't fast enough for any of them, at all. Then it didn't even matter. No matter what you did, you choices didn't matter. Your character was going to die.

Not sure how to make this clearer, but...

- There's no death at all in the game. You can fail everything and still finish it.
- There are no times you need to press buttons.
- There are times where if you click something on the screen in time you get some extra dialogue.

The game freezes in time and you see a picture of the scene. There will be 2 or 3 possible locations on the picture to click. If you click the right one, you get some extra insight. If you click the wrong one or take too long, the game just goes on.

Like you can click on a character chewing with his mouth open to figure out he has bad manners, or on a character's necklace to see they're affilirated with a secret society. If you don't click in time, you miss out on the "opportunity" but that's it.

you make it sound pointless to play
Why doesn't someone die?

It doesn't have QTE's in the classic sense of pressing arrows to jump out of the way of falling objexts etc. It does have a dialogue timer on some (not all) conversations but in almost all cases except a few (where you answer yes, no, or just wait for the other person to speak) you have more than enough time to go through the options. I don't think (so far, at least) it matters too much ifyou run out of time - on my second "playing deliberately bad in convos and confrontations" playthrough I am deliberately letting dialogue options with the timers time out to see if it does have an effect later on!

'Opportunities' alos have a timer, where having some skills give you a timer to locate and click on background items. I don't think these are game changing - just further tidbits of info that you may gain which might change your opinion of certain characters. You can still choose how much to trust or not trust them in later options where, for example, you may choose to show/disclose information or not to them in later conversations!

So to summarise, the QTE's as such are the occasional dialogue or opportunity timer which will not end the game of you run out of time on them!

There IS one way to die but you have to deliberately try hard to... you have to get a certain ending in episode one then deliberately fail in a conversation at the start of episode 2 the best you can...

[Rockets]

hmm

[obliviondoll]

it's a storytelling game not a combat game. That's why people don't normally die.

It sounds like you won't like this game.
