Any doubts I had were blown out of the water. Episode 1 was a great start and I think this is just as good as the original game. The soundtrack is produced by Daughter (smashing choice) and fits the aesthetic very well.

I have to say the graphical detail, facial animations and lip sync have all improved significantly, I know that was a concern for some people with the first game but I don't think thats an issue anymore!

Enjoyed learning about Chloe's past and how she met Rachel, its a very fitting prequel idea that doesn't feel forced and appears to be well executed. Heres hoping the next two episodes (plus the bonus episode!) match or surpass the fantastic start. This franchise is hella good.

Edit for episode 2: I think I can rest easy, episode 2 is even better than episode 1 haha

Edit for episode 3: good game, don't watch the after credits scene though, I died

Edit for bonus episode 4: was brought back to life for this one, shed a tear then returned to my grave. Deck Nine & the VAs did an excellent job.
