Same, I'm hoping the GoT and Borderlands don't come out until TWD and Wold Among Us are done.


Not interested in either of those to be honest. Haven't watched or played the counterparts.

Imagine a group of a hundred motorcycles driving down a freeway. Eventually, they hit a junction. One road goes northwest and the other goes northeast. So one guy, we'll call him S, says, "Let's go northwest!" A mile past the intersection, a semi careens into the group and kills ninety of them. Ten are wounded, but they survive and keep going. Eventually, they hit 10,000 miles. S suddenly has his consciousness thrown into his past body right before the junction. Now, he says, "Let's go northeast!" All 100 bikers survive. Happily ever after, right? But what about the ten, no nine, who went northwest and survived? What happens to the reality they were living? Does it just disappear now that S has changed the past? It's not like only bad things happened on that 10,000 mile journey. Maybe one of them fell in love with a gas station attendant and got her pregnant or maybe one adopted a homeless kid that joined the adventure. That 10,000 mile journey would be full of stories. Romances, farewells, friendships...the loss of those ninety lives is horrible and unfortunate, but what would rewriting their history mean? The nine who survived lived full lives and did the best they could with the hand they were dealt. How could it be right to just erase all that? Isn't that worth something? Is there a point to a world where everything is happy? Are people who struggle for a better life just idiots? Being human is about fighting even when it seems hopeless and finding happiness in a world that hates it. Are you saying that's worthless?

I finally got around to playing through this (downloaded it a few weeks ago and forgot about it). I shouldn't have waited so long. I thought the storyline was immersive and very strong, and I had never even heard of the comic series. I want to read them now, but I'm going to wait until I complete the last chapter of the game so as not to spoil too much. At first glance, it didn't really seem to be my cup of tea, but the characters certainly grew on me pretty quick. Telltale seems to be good at that. I'm pretty invested now so here's hoping the next chapter comes sooner than later.

Here are mine.

Somebody on the Telltale community did some investigating and found VERY strong evidence on who the killer is, though. This isn't officially a spoiler. It's just speculation. The evidence is strong, though

They've been around a while now. I love the art style and music in this game, it gives it a late eighties noir feel.

For those who haven't read the Fables series, Jack is from Jack and the Beanstalk (obviously) but he's such a slimy, dumb asshole. He often tries to rip people off with pyramid schemes involving him selling his magic beans and Bigby can barely tolerate him. He's hilarious, though. If they added his character for fanservice, I'm glad

I don't think they had been posted in this thread up until now, and it's the first time I have seen them, so it's all good! I'm seriously debating whether or not to play the first episode or wait it out just like the second season of The Walking Dead. The reviews and storyline make me want to play it, but I don't think I can handle waiting months between each episode. Oh the dilemmas in my life right now.

I truly believe the Telltale series are the only series that are better if you play it episodic-ly rather than binging at the end. If you get it, you can put together clues with us, share your choices, give theories on who the killer is, etc.

How can Telltale be so cruel to make us wait this long? I'm going to blame Tales from the Borderlands and Gearbox for this delay.
