I'm definitely eager to play Season 2.… Expand

   I didn't have the same emotions as in the first 5 parts, maybe because I miss Clementine und Lee so much! But this episode is realy good andI didn't have the same emotions as in the first 5 parts, maybe because I miss Clementine und Lee so much! But this episode is realy good and it comples to make real very,... very hard decisions. I was realy lost in the few moments, what I have to do! This part is not so gourgeus and not so long, but it's deserved to be played! I'm waiting impatiently for the next season!… Expand

   I was torn here, between a 7 and an 8. 7 seems too little, but 8 feels like major praise. It is, after all, 9 minus 1 (maths!), and how oftenI was torn here, between a 7 and an 8. 7 seems too little, but 8 feels like major praise. It is, after all, 9 minus 1 (maths!), and how often do you see a 10? Regardless, I went with a 7, because 400 Days while compelling at times has some heavy flaws. The different stories are an interesting experiment, and not wholly unsuccessful. Each character -- though as you'd expect semi-avatar and customizable in nature -- has their own clear personality, so they don't all feel like Lee Mark 2. The crossover between the episodes is, if a bit cheesy at times, pretty nice. Finding out about the source of a certain bloodstain in another character's story...
   
   The real downer is the length. The stories are all fairly short, which has a ripple effect on other elements. The game is good about getting you to care about it's characters in spite of that (you won't care as much as you did Lee and Clem, but you'll still hope that most of them don't all die), but the fragmented nature of the stories also means every one of them has to start before moving on. Consequences don't have the chance to truly have any impact. Cast in point: Vince's story, while fairly interesting and ending on a dramatic note, may as well have been just one conversation. Its last choice is a tricky one, but never will you see its consequences. The same for almost everyone but Shel, who probably has the best choice and consequence (taking place during its rough middle). However, in the end her resolution in the Epilogue is disappointing.
   
   And so it is for everyone, as the Epilogue is lacking and almost tacked-on. It offers some interesting comments about how the stories turned out, but isn't sufficiently explained and highlights the lack of proper consequence caused by the DLC's short length. It ultimately serves to skim over your choices and end the thing with a sudden sequel hook (assuming it pops up in the sequel, if not just a sudden mystery).
   
   I *would* recommend 400 Days. But it's not a must-have, and expect to blow through it pretty quickly. It recently went on Steam sale, -75% off, so consider look out for when it's available for a £1; £4, while not ridiculously overpriced, might leave you feeling as though it'd been a bit wasted.… Expand

The heavy choices you have to make are still there, but they don't carry as far like the first season. I say it's worth the $5, especially since the choices are planned to carry into Season 2.… Expand

No se tiene tiempo para conocer a estos personajes, no veo mucho que añade de valor real. Lo que me gusto es que esta conectado con la segunda temporada, pero los personajes que salen apenas tienen un cameo y no siento ninguna conexión con ellos. No se... Esta barato, supongo que vale la pena. Si tienes la temporada uno y quieres jugar a la 2, pues no viene mal completarlo. Al menos para que cuando los veas sea por tus decisiones con ellos, no por algo random al no haber partida.

   Bought this when it was released but have not had a chance to try it until recently. Now the game just hangs up at a black screen whenever IBought this when it was released but have not had a chance to try it until recently. Now the game just hangs up at a black screen whenever I try to start an episode and it seems this is a common problem that has popped up since 400 days. I played the game with absolutely zero problems before installing 400 days, and now I can't even refresh on the base story so I can play the new season because 400 days broke the game.… Expand
