To the surprise of absolutely nobody, those were some of the worst scenes in the game.

l loved this games until I got into layton and realized, that layton did everything 20 times better. Most disappointing thing with the puzzle agent games was that all the puzzles were similar. If you played through Part 1, Part 2 was just a story dump with reskinned puzzles.

Borderlands and Wolf Among Us. Choices don't matter so I just watch them as shows via playthroughs. The logic ball does drop a lot in WAU though.

Quality is relative.

When you have two bad games, one is still better than the other.

>>387492770
Yeah it does barely introduce any new puzzles and just brings back the same kind of puzzles from the first game with different solutions. They are not even harder, bc they did not want to alienate people who did not play the first one I assume.

>>387492829
Borderlands elevated its source material. Most other Telltale games just copy it, or make it worse.

I think Borderlands worked as well because they had freedom. Since The Pre Sequel had been poorly received, Borderlands looked like it wasn't going to see any more games anyway, so nobody gave a fuck about the canon, letting them do whatever they wanted.

It's also the only game I can think of which has legitimate comic timing. There are a lot of jokes which would fall flat if it wasn't for the way they're told.

>>387492849
I finally got to play since it was free on ps+, and I fucked loved it. It's on the level of Tales and Wolf

>>387492819
Their Sam and Max games and their Monkey Island game are dope.

>>387492849
For me it felt a lot like heavy rain. Your choices barely matter unless you are an idiot in an obvious situation. What matters is failing certain quick time events bc they kill of characters. That's fine. What elevates this game above heavy rain is that it is written by a somewhat competent horror movie director/writer.
In defense of the telltale games, they never said the choices would lead to different endings and then did not deliver (*cough* EVERY DAVID CAGE GAME". Their only claim is that the game adapts to your choices wich is true. I see them as an interactive movie with a story from which you can not stray away too far.

I never played any walking dead after the first. Are the others good?

I still can't believe how hard they dropped the ball with those 2 seasons after how good season 1 was

>>387494094
The biggest problem is that these games should have been an anthology. 400 days kind of had the right idea but it was too short too have any significance

>>387494094
They missed the point. People didn't like The Walking Dead 1 for Clem herself, but for what she represented. It was you acting as a father to a vulnerable daughter figure. Even the most spergy game player has a built in desire to protect a child.

They thought people liked Clem as a character though. Which is why it didn't work.

>>387493997
It's not a shit opinion when everything in Borderlands is trash

>>387494094
As with every other sequel disappointment, the path to understanding is realizing the original really wasn't that good.

>>387494251
Original Borderlands and Tales are great. The rest got corrupted by very obnoxious writing that tried to force memes into it.

>>387493304
They have their moments but they suffer really badly from cut content, Like in one of the episodes in season 2 episode 4 you can see all these characters on the intro screen and none of them appear in the game.

>>387493038
This, I hated the first 2 borderlands games yet I loved Tales of the borderland.

>>387494241
It didn't help that they made every character except Clem a fucking retard in season 2, and basically forgot how to write consistent characters in season 3.
Seriously, who approved of season 3's writing? Every character flip flopped all over the goddamn place ever third sentence.
>>387494256

Wolf Among Us and Walking Dead First season.

>>387494361
Honestly 2 and Pre Sequel aren't even that bad. There's some parts which are incredibly obnoxious, but most of the time its side quests that you can avoid by just reading the title.

I'm not defending the writing, just saying that it wasn't all Burch, and (most) of the main plot stuff is ok.

Yes, yes it was. Saying that your choices don't matter is redundant at this point. But imagine besides that you get a story that makes your characters eat truckloads of shit, but you endure nonetheless because it's GoT, surely there wil be some kind of payoff in the end. Noooooope, I hope you enjoyed 6 episodes worth of shit, here's your shitty ending with a cliffhanger. Seriously, fuck that game.

Tales from the Borderlands!

Nah. It was funny and didn't take itself so seriously like other Telltale games. There's a lot of replayability based on the fun characters and different fun scenarios

>>387495596
>Fun characters

dude cute robots lmao

>>387494967
Characters are just rip offs of the Starks to the point where its painful. Main character gets sent to the wall (Jon Snow), his sister is in Kings Landing (Sansa), and your choices more so than any other game absolutely do not matter. I tried reloading after something shitty would happen and what do you know, it was bound to happen no matter what you do. The game tries to make you feel like your choices matter but theres a sketchy feeling like in the back of your mind you know they're not.

I thought it was awful as someone that barely knew about Game of Thrones before playing it. Since then I've since marathon'd the TV show and loved it. So it wasn't because I was a big fan that i hated it, and since being a fan I still hate it.

Its sad because all they had to do was flesh out the world a little more.

>>387492228
so underrated.

>>387495636
OK, here's your last (You). I know you're just being a contrarian. You can reduce literally any character to a (generic shit) lmao comment.

>>387495686
That's weird. I would have thought their cash in licenses would be the things they would put the most effort into. Game of Thrones would sell anyway, but if they made it decent they could sell a ton. Odd that they wouldn't.

Meanwhile Wolf Among Us and Tales from the Borderlands are based on IPs which wouldn't bring in many fans, but are great.

>>387492202
Wolf Among us or Batman are my favorites, but it's pretty subjective overall.

>>387495982

Why the fuck do they keep doing this episodic shit? It's retarded how you get 2 hours of story, then nothing for a month so you have time to forget what happened and lose interest. Episodic worked for Hitman because there was enough content in each episode and the story didn't matter.

Until Dawn did it right.

>>387496465
>A month

Wolf among us. Knew fuck all about fables but shit was great, followed by walking dead season 1.

I never played borderlands so I wouldn't know how good that is.

>>387496548
You should play it. If you liked those two I can 100% guarantee you'd like Tales.

>>387496171
Properly talking about batman. I think one of the writers for that is Michael Kirkbride as well.

>>387496602
If it goes on sale I'll pick it up. I thought borderlands was alright but was never the biggest fan of it, and the last telltale game I got was game of thrones, which was fucking trash.

>>387496794
Ignore Borderlands entirely. It takes the setting and elevates it massively, and it's mostly about the characters anyway.

Even just pirate the first episode or something. I just wish more people had played it because it's legitimately great and I want more.

People shit on Telltale for no good reason, just trying to fit in with the "THEYRE NOT GAMES" and "THIS CHOICE DIDNT IMMEDIATELY EFFECT SOMETHING" bullshit spread by their favorite lets players.

The games, along with Life is Strange, are mostly written very well with developing characters, intereting scenarios, and interesting/fun choices.

People love to blow nitpicks out of proportion or literally invent things to hate on.

>>387497175
Life is strange is one that I don't understand really, but not for the game side of it. More that everything I see of it makes it look like teen drama for girls, and yet you see grown men advocating it as some sort of masterpiece.

The fact that in the game as soon as they got the ironwood they start stripping the land bare again shows how retarded they are. Then you have the bitch of a daughter who wants you to roll over and take it.

>TWD1 topped anything else they'll ever do

Borderlands topped that. Not even kidding.

>Kenny the only thing holding the shitshow that was TWD2 together
>Kill him off without there being any established characters to take over

TWD had a unique set up that was impossible to follow up on without it any potential sequel seeming like a rehash. You can't take the same group survival set up and then try and do it all over again with completely different characters.

Everyone complained throughout a Season 2 that the group dynamic was not as good. There was no internal drama that made Season 1 interesting (Lilly/Kenny, Ben/Kenny), and any sign of potential group conflict appearing the gay dude whose boyfriend you murder was snubbed out in an instant. At this point, people were only following Season 2 for character development of existing characters. All of the positive memorable moments of Season 2 involve Kenny in some capacity.

Season 3 was not as bad as it was received, and it was definitely much better than Season 1. The group conflict was back, and the characters were likeable to a passable extent. If Season 2 had not burned so much good will from the audience, the reception would have been far more positive. Without the hype and discussion in between episodes, which was a large part of what made Season 1 a great experience, the game fell flat.

1. Wolf Among Us
2. TWD1
3. Borderlands

We all joke about how TWD season 2 was garbage, and it was, but it's genuinely shocking how bad season 3 is.
Zombies just pop in and out of existence in their hundreds to accommodate awful writing, major characters just walk out of frame and are never seen or mentioned again.

Your choices don't matter at all, it just does a much better job of giving the illusion of having your choices matter. It also didn't do a very good job of being like an 80s horror movie, it just felt like a cheap imitation that had a lot of the flaws of those kinds of movies with none of the charm.It's still kind of okay as far as these kinds of games go, which isn't saying much because even the very best of them are just decent, but it's still not anything special. I think the new game they're making looks like it could be alright though.

I think minecraft is pretty good for a parent to play it with a kid

>>387497175
>The games, along with Life is Strange, are mostly written very well with developing characters, intereting scenarios, and interesting/fun choices.
Life is Strange has none of these things, not in the slightest. Telltale are capable of making pretty good characters, but nothing amazing, and they do not make games where your choices matter. It's not a nitpick, it's just the truth, and it's a truth that's blatant to anyone who has seen the outcome of both decisions in any given scenario.

Having a 'final boss' isn't even good story telling for these types of games. Having a supremely powerful bad guy lessens the impact of group conflict.

A more organic approach would have been half the group coming around to Carvers, less barbarically portrayed, community leadership. If Carver had been stern but just, and not someone who murdered and raped on a whim, the community would have been more engaged.

Tales from the Borderlands has some of the best characters in all of the Telltale games. It's nice that none of them are 100% heroic, and are actually pretty useless most of the time.

Is it actually like a kids story? If that's the case than I don't actually mind so much.

Family friendly story.

TftB is a Disney story, with Disney characters, and that's absolutely not a bad thing.

Take out the violence and add some musical numbers and it could have been a legitimately great Disney movie.

Fuck Claptrap, though. I wish there was a way to turn him off.

Chapter 1 and 2 were bad.
3,4 and 5 were actually good.

I just want some porn of thick gortys.

Somewhere between Guardians of The Galaxy and Batman.

I tend to enjoy tragic twists and heartstring pulls, even if none of it was the product of my decisions. Tell-tale tends to pull these moments off to great success in these games as opposed to others.

I literally felt nothing for like half the dead characters in the GOT TTG game.

That bothers me less then. I can't think of that many narrative games for kids.

Tales from the Borderlands is what you want

>>387492202
Please don't call them Games...there are just an interactive TV show.

Holy shit I didn't know this existed....I'm gonna download it right now.

Also Sam & Max, Poker Night and the Wallace & Gromit Episodes are all worth a playthrough.
