That is absolute nonsense. What is the difference between episodic and multi-part here? Is it not episodic if it only has 3 episodes? Might want to inform TV series of that.

The game is obviously episodic. Its the main game divided in 3 parts. Its not 3 different stories with some connecting threads.

 

telltale games is episodic, Telltale's "Batman" game is episodic.

Games like the FFXIII trilogy is not episodic, it is a multipart game, each game disc is full of 50-60 hours of content. Or do you think FFXIII is episodic too? Episodes are typically short games. Multi part however is normally three full games. A trilogy of full games if you like. You can't say a game like FF XIII is the same as a Walking Dead episode as that simply isn't true as one offers way more content.

Does this answer your question?

I don't think XIII is episodic, no. I think its 2 sequals to the first game. But FFVII isn't that. It's a single story beeing chopped in parts and sold as full price episodes.

The comparison to XIII would be to chop XIII into 3 games without any of the sequals.
