Wolf Among Us is pretty good. But yes Tales of the Borderlands is the best telltale game I have played.

That's a shame that Borderlands is the best one. I do like that I don't feel like going to kill screen someone the same way as Walking Dead. You just elect to be a dickhead or not depending on what you want to see play out.

I just did not like Tales from the Borderlands, the game sections were lacking - standard for telltale - but nothing about the games humour worked for me, now granted I only played episode 1 but it was almost offended me with how dull it was.. uhhrgh

That's fair. not everybody will like the same game. But Tales from the Borderlands is the game that made want more of the borderlands universe and prompted me to buy the handsome collection.

For me after having played WD2 and GOT it was refreshing for a telltale game to be a story that didn't rely on non-stop misery and indiscriminate character death to generate drama. Tales from the Borderlands is a fun exciting adventure and I like that about it.

My knowledge of Telltale's older titles is totally lacking - I was only talking about the modern post walking dead style of game.

I thought their Back to the Future game was pretty good. However I honestly haven't played a game by them I dislike yet. On the one hand there are plenty I haven't played, on the other hand I've played what is supposed to be their worst game and liked it so

Yeah if the humour isn't doing it for you that game is a write off, I loved Borderlands 2 as well played through it solo and with a friend so yeah just not for me. Walking Dead S1 was alright as well, probably one of the few videogames I've cried at but that was back when episodic games were a cool novelty.

I feel like Telltale really caught lightning in a bottle with TWD1 because nothing they've done before or since have impressed me. I know a lot of people enjoy Tales from the Borderlands but the setting and humor of BL really doesn't appeal to me.

I really liked Wolf Among Us because besides being a murder mystery it's a story of a government waking up to being awful. It gave me hope that maybe real governments can too.

Almost certainly it did but other studios somehow manage to recover and sustain talent from project to project.

It also helped that each chapter is pretty visual distinct, even if you end up in similar situations in most of them you're always moving to new locations. WDS1 was a perfect storm of good writing and clever mechanics, as well as the novel factor being a big appeal. I really liked Wolf at the Door 'cause I love the Fables IP but I feel like Telltale did something really landmark out the gate: modernize an adventure game and find a format that it can sell in--and then sort of let that very rapidly stagnate, which is why they've got far less buzz. Until Dawn really took their concept and pushed it even further, and Telltale needs to get a bit more innovative I think, or at least do more to try and add unique elements to their future titles if they want to remain relevant.

WDS1 was a perfect storm of good writing and clever mechanics, as well as the novel factor being a big appeal. Telltale needs to build an engine that isn't almost a decade old and buggy as hell. And clearly being half-fudged on the old inventory-driven version used for games like Tales of Money Island or Sam and Max.

I think the near-identical format of every Telltale game really undercuts their narrative goals. Once you've played a few of them the story beats become painfully predictable, which is something you absolutely do not want to happen in a story-driven game that's meant to keep the player guessing. Oh look, another flashpoint where I have to choose which of two characters to save. Oh look, I'm making a monumental decision that's just going to be reversed 5 minutes later. Until Dawn's horror movie format was a brilliant move because even though there are only a few select points where the characters can die, the knowledge that they CAN all die maintains tension throughout.

^That's not true. In game of Thrones particularly you can have a much different group of people left alive by the end. It has actual consequences, but bizarrely seems hated the most, often by people with that very complaint.exquisite tea posted:I feel like Telltale really caught lightning in a bottle with TWD1 because nothing they've done before or since have impressed me.

I hate the setting humor in the BL series, but the telltale game is not that humor, and it makes fun off the setting nonstop. You couldn't make me play another BL, but Tales from was just great.

To this day I haven't hated a telltale game other than game of thrones, but I also haven't loved one since TWD season 1. Borderlands was pretty good.

I always do this whenever Telltale is brought up, but give Life is Strange a try. I thought it blew Telltale's games out of the water, with the possible exception of TWD1. Then again, LiS didn't have bugs that would break all your current and future save files like the PC version of TWD.

Not really. I played it on PC so hopefully there's no problem with the PS4 version. For me it just happened when I started a new game. It would completely disregard my choices when switching chapters, so dead characters would suddenly be alive. The choices didn't even mine up with my old saves. And at one point it suddenly refused to load chapters. They are known problems but were never fixed. I think it has something to do with the game keeping saves and other files in two folders. Steam synq might have been partially to blame.
