archive.is/HrI22 So Telltale dropped 1/4th of it's staff so it can do less but do it better.
Thoughts? Genuine attempt to improve quality or is the interest in Telltale's trash finally ending and they need to downscale if they're to survive the fading popularity. I've heard nothing good about their shit in years, all the good will from the first Walking Dead game they did has faded and people are aware of, and tired of, the formula.
Eli Evans
"quality" games
Kayden Miller
NOOOOOOO I HAD FORGOTTEN THAT EXISTED WHYYYYYYYYYY
Bentley Garcia
I'm guessing TWD season 3 didn't do so hot. Damn near the entirety of their popularity stems from the first one and I'm absolutely convinced that it was just a fluke. I don't think they have it in them to do it again.
Jack Rivera
Make movie games great again
Cooper Carter
360 people sounds like a lot, for the kinds of games they make. I could image 90 being a decent sized dev team for what's essentially a 3D visual novel. I'm guessing they just have a lot of artists and animators.
Jayden Turner
better ones have been made with less than 5 staff
Henry Robinson
They have never made a good game. If you played more than 30 minutes of TWD you have shit taste.
Camden Wood
I dunno, I thought TWAU was alright, for the most part. It certainly could have been better, but if they threw in some actual detective work, it might turn out to be good. they won't
Benjamin Allen
This might be interesting.
Liam Nguyen
I seriously wonder how this game is
Samuel Hill
It's shit.
Hunter Garcia
Type "minecraft animation music video" into youtube and that's the jist.
Parker Miller
You tell us.
Asher Brown
That's how the headlines sounds, but in truth, they just fired all the white problematic male developers.
Thomas Wilson
Must mean they want the last of us tier movies, because we know you cannot possibly lose in a telltale """""game"""""". So they won't be raising gameplay quality.
Charles Diaz
Good, fuck them and their shitty episodic visual novels that ride off of other ips, they can't die soon enough
Thomas Barnes
Starring everybodies favourite comedian Oswald "the ladykiller" Patton.
Gavin Wright
That has to be satire.
Levi Russell
You can literally do nothing for most of the events you have control over and the "game" will eventually do it for you.
Michael Russell
To be fair Rueben the pig was the most interesting character, which is exactly why they kill him off. The other characters are so cliche and obnoxious, the audience would cheer their death.
Jordan Sanchez
Get in the shame cube and think about what you just wrote.
Gavin Price
Well about time. The third season of the walking dead was shit. Also I had no idea they wore so huge, if 90 people is just 25%, that means they had 360 people working on their games which is amazing considering how poorly and slowly they are made.
William Jones
ill give them a chance
Justin Hill
GIVE ME FUCKING MORE HOMESTARRUNNER FUCKING EPISODES
Cameron Green
Another one?
Mason Myers
Man that takes me back.
Carter Wood
glorified walking sims, they are doomed
Ryder Murphy
The only good thing they ever did were the 3 Sam & Max Seasons (Who has the IP rights to those nowadays?) and the first TWD. After that it's been a steady downward spiral.
Sam & Max Season 3 is still fucking hilarious
Nolan Young
Kino Kino
Jayden Gomez
Is that Bane in the OP pic
Samuel Edwards
the pork chop gets me every time
Charles Gutierrez
For you, user.
Henry Mitchell
Get a load of these high quality death animations anons.
Nathaniel Cruz
...
Matthew Parker
Will they make something original now?
Luke Evans
I never hear anyone mention Tales of Monkey Island or Wallace & Gromit in Telltale threads, not even to say it's shit. How were they?
Strong Bad was decent. Problem is the Chapmans made far more of it than Telltale.
Jonathan Bennett
I couldn't play past 5 minutes of Tales of Monkey Island so I wouldn't honestly know.
Oliver James
I only actually enjoyed the first The Walking Dead. Now they can die as a company for all I care. It's a one-pony trick.
Alexander Perez
Better stick your tits between her dicks.
Brandon Butler
Pretty much. The writing has gotten steadily worse and they completely failed to deliver on the choices and consequences. When they go under nothing of value will be lost.
Ayden Anderson
It's a real shame, once they released that Jurassic Park trash it was obvious they were losing their shit.
Connor Collins
I only play the TWD first one, once it became clear nothing mattered choice wise I never bought another of their products.
Thomas Cox
Good news altogether then
Carter Stewart
kek
Connor Robinson
For them, even a genuine attempt probably won't amount to much.
Adam Phillips
Greedy yids are cutting the fat to save their shekels. Come on, you should know that if you lurked more OP.
Nathan Sullivan
...
Nicholas Gray
FUNNE JEOK XD
Camden Moore
I mean…. I can say much because I don't play their games that much. I did play the first walking dead game they made and I have played twau, but that's it. I mean a lot of people called their first walking dead game goty material, so I guess they got excited and hired a lot of people to create new games? And now they want to kick people off so they can make a few but better games? That's my guess.
Because they surely read online comments about them, and they probably know that people think they are total cancer for making that minecraft game. They probably also noticed that people dislike them for not having a lot of impact in game. I hope they want to change this in their future games?
Snow was hot, but also a total piece of shit. I blame it on bad writing.
Brody Foster
you know I bet they would make a killing if they made choose your own adventure games with ACTUAL choices instead of just making movies where sometimes you get to make a really insignificant choice.
Hunter Campbell
Please tell me you don't actually get news from this website.
Something like Joe Dever's Lone Wolf but with less combat? I'd play it.
Isaac Morgan
Naaaaa also in the comics she is a cunt so was pretty accurate
Joseph Wood
He just fired all the sjws in his company. They're learning.
Liam Butler
If I recall Telltale is now SJW central with warning color hair everywhere
Nolan Perry
Nothing's going to change because they'll still make games that are formulaic and where your choices don't actually matter. I doubt this "push for quality" is gonna result in anything more than just a smaller number of shitty, half-baked animations appearing in their games.
Logan Myers
I heard you can go back to neofag already, please do.
Jace Moore
Please don't act like this isn't the kind of awful, childish writing you'd find on reddit or any site like it; it's also riddled with grammatical errors, which is especially shameful given he's ripping the story from GamesIndustry.
Dominic Green
You know who you are, and what must be done.
Jackson Baker
...
Liam Kelly
Who the fuck is that?
Jonathan Jackson
That appears to be Jed Whittaker, a literally who game journo fired earlier this year. He wrote a bit twitter rant about how he worked for peanuts at Destructoid and other publications for a year ("without being paid" were his words, I believe) before he was laid off.
He now operates a Twitch channel where you can pay money to see him play Garden Warfare and make rape jokes while drinking Red Bull.
Connor Price
Please tell me there was banter directed at him.
Cooper Wood
Leave any time.
Jose Young
That's just it, he didn't complain. He happily toiled for free for over a year before he was laid off since the rag he worked for couldn't afford to keep him on. He got real mad on Twitter and everyone shit-talked him for it.
Not an argument. One Angry Memer is a shitty website and you should not use it.
Andrew Ortiz
I thought nowadays he made reviews of how amiibos felt inside his ass
Landon Jackson
You are aware that the fables and their ghetto are officially a reference to Jews and Israel?
Tyler Reed
You seriously think your shit will work here?
Jackson Collins
I'm simply telling you the truth: everything I've had the misfortune to read from that website is garbage, and the writing is obviously biased to the point it obscures information. It's the definition of bad reporting.
Matthew Morris
Seriously, it's not working here.
Xavier Long
Feel free to explain what the fuck you mean any time. Sage for off-topic.
Nathan Stewart
>>>/out/
Justin Perry
It's good that they're trying to make something good assuming this is true, but they never even made a "game" that wasn't shit.
Brandon Gutierrez
One would expect they were trying, and failing badly, to create something good all along.
Sebastian Martin
Are we being raided? All thread have a shitposter clear as sky Do you have any idea how many schlock had this idea of monster hiding between humans to survive? Izombie, Dylan dog movie, blade trilogy, Buffy Go fellate a gun
Adam Jackson
just hide and ignore, user.
Austin Wood
I can't, it piss me off this low effort shitposting of D&C trying to create another Holla Forums-Holla Forums bullshit bait I've reported but fuck I'm pissed
Landon Scott
Fucking why. They make the same game over and over again, and never change their technology. They need, at most, a few dozen artists, a handful of musicians, and maybe ten programmers script kiddies.
Owen Carter
They deserved it.
Blake Young
That's his own fault and a bad decision. I worked at a place once where we had our paychecks bounce one period. It was fixed within half an hour when we made it known, but it was enough to make one of our graphics people quit right there, on the spot, with no notice or two week transition. The whole arrangement between company and employees hinges on the paycheck. Why was this guy working for free for a year, if he wasn't an intern, and how did he even manage to eat or keep the rent paid?
