The Walking Dead: A New Frontier Review (Pcable131)

Lately I have been on a Telltale binge since they have mostly shut down (although The Wolf Among Us 2 and The Expanse were announced!) and trying to beat all of their games on Steam even if they aren't available anymore. The Walking Dead: A New Frontier is a continuation/Season 3 of The Walking Dead series from Telltale that really established them as a developer (in my opinion) with gamers. To my memory The Walking Dead was the first really successful game with a popular IP and A New Frontier doesn't change my mind on the series at all.
Although I thoroughly prefer Clementine as the main protagonist I thought the game did a really good job with Javi and having us learn more about him and care about him. Although I believe we go back to Clementine in the final season I hope Javi is here to stay and that we see him pop up in minor/major ways. The only downside to this game for me is that I felt like Javi's big decisions will have no lasting impact on the series as a whole because of the protagonist changing between Clementine and Javi. I hope to be wrong in the final season but it was difficult for me to feel the severity of life changing decisions when I knew they probably wouldn't affect Clementine.
Outside of that negative, it is another good entry and worth playing the whole Walking Dead series from start to end.
