I love Telltale's stuff, but they're a bit hit or miss for me. I really liked The Wolf Among Us and Tales from the Borderlands, but really didn't care for The Walking Dead sequels and Batman. A lot of companies tried to replicate what they had but they never had writing as good.
That said, Telltale really needed some alternate endings. There's only so much "X will remember this" I can read before I realize how little my actions matter.
I'm sadly not optimistic that The Wolf Among Us 2 is ever coming out. They laid off most of their staff half a year ago.
I totally agree with you. They had something special with the wolf among us. I was very excited when they announced the sequel, but sad to hear your news about firing the team.
Tales from the Borderland would be on second spot for me. Following the Walking Dead, Game of Thrones, and Batman. But for the for the last three, I really don't remember much anymore.
I have Tales from the Borderlands and Poker Night in my library, but I just can't bring myself to play them. Knowing they're just basically limping along really makes me not want to get invested in characters I know probably won't get the resolution they deserve.
Tales from the Borderlands is a finished story, and it's amazing! Please at least try the first episode, it has some of my fondest and over the top gaming memories!
Okie dokie. After I "finish" Satisfactory and Vampire Survivors.
I was always under the impression telltale hasnt existed for a couple years?
They went bankrupt but got picked up by another company years later. They got a big chunk of the original team back on board, then they made The Expanse game, then they fired most of the team again.
Their future is pretty uncertain right now.
