I have withheld watching it so far. My intent is to binge watch it when all 9 episodes are released. My question…is it worth waiting for or should I watch now to avoid potential spoilers (I have played both games)?

I like being able to sit between episodes for awhile to really digest it. That's just me though.

If you're wanting to avoid spoilers, it's my understanding that there will be changes from the game despite it following the general overarching plot from the game.

I would assume a lot of the series would already be spoiled for you if you have played the games.

However, I had read Station Eleven and completely enjoyed the series even with its differences from the book.

Depends. How excited are you to see bear on bear action?

I don’t know what’s happened to me over the past couple years, but spoilers have stopped bothering me. Even if I know what’s coming, I enjoy watching. HOTD, I guess.

Especially after this week’s episode, it’s an incredible show so far, but it is fairly slow paced. Binging is probably not a bad idea.

Hold off.

There are episodes that detract from the experience and we just had one.

Game of thrones had several that I tell people to skip. Hell the last two seasons made the show fizzle out like a fart in the wind, but if you watch it to season 6s conclusion it's like the greatest show ever made.

Only recent HBO show with every episode being absolutely awesome was Chernobyl.

Everyone on this board would pray every night for a normal gay kid if you knew half the shite that goes on at Reddit and Tumblr

Episode 3 has been the best one so far if you like character development.

Binging it if you want but I watch and episode when it comes out.

I enjoy having some anticipation once in a while. I’ve watched each episode on Sunday night, listened to the official podcast, then rewatched on Friday as my GF never wants to watch on Sunday.

I pick up a bunch more after the podcast plus it puts me in a position to answer all my GFs damn questions

i doubt they are going to change much of major significance to the story from the games, so if you're familiar with those i doubt much will be spoiled for you.

i kind of enjoy the weekly sit down, and this is one of the few shows i have bene highly anticipating in recent years so for me, week by week.

I watched the first 2 episodes.

Holding off now. Want to make sure I don't have to watch the gay sex episode, to follow along.

I'm not one of those cats who rants about it. . .but I don't care to watch gay dudes making out, either.
