This is wonderful news

Very interesting. They better not screw it up, but I've loved Telltale's stuff so far so I trust them. Careful optimist.

Well, if The Walking Dead game is a testament to the quality of their writing, I'll have to watch this. Hopefully they do like the Game of Thrones RPG and consult GRRM on the story so it can match the lore of the series.

A Tale of Bear Island featuring Guybrush of House Threepwood?

» Tue Jan 14, 2014 4:49 pm

I'm excited.

Cool cool. Might be cool.

» Tue Jan 14, 2014 2:53 pm

Hopefully it'll have more success than the existing GoT games.

Wonderful news? I thought they were busy with that wolf game and TWD Season 2, isn't this going to spread their resources thin (which would lead to bad game design)?

Wonderful news!!! Even If it′s only half as good as The Walking Dead it will good!

Im pretty impressed by telltale, with walking dead and wolf among us.

I think its a good fit. Im looking forward to it from their previous work.

If its good I promise to read the books too. I almost bought it when I went for last Holiday.

This just made my day.

» Tue Jan 14, 2014 1:10 pm

I'm skeptical but it's better then nothing.

Love even the idea itself, their Walking Dead game was one of the biggest surprise of the year, so just stick to the plan and make this stuff awesome.

» Tue Jan 14, 2014 2:28 pm

I wonder if it'll be based solely on the books or the show. It'll probably have its own take on the story, but this is important to me anyway. Both, I guess?

» Tue Jan 14, 2014 4:43 am

It'll probably go The Walking Dead route and have a completely different cast

» Tue Jan 14, 2014 3:59 pm

^ I hope so, the actual book timeframe is too limited. They should make it about the first Blackfyre rebellion or something.

» Tue Jan 14, 2014 7:09 pm

I just hope it's not episodic.... and if so... I'll be waiting for them all to be released.

» Tue Jan 14, 2014 7:55 am

I actually can't stand games that are released in "episodes" like they're TV shows. Besides money grabbing, is there any other point to it?

» Tue Jan 14, 2014 8:28 am

I dislike it as well... Though it's a way to continue working on the game, but still able to release it in part so you keep your fans happy. Still, I'd much rather have the entire game.

» Tue Jan 14, 2014 7:26 am

I actually really like episodic releases for Tell Tale-like "games". It works well with the medium and prevents burnout. Hate it for proper games, though.

IDK about this. Tell Tale's approach works for something like TWD because nothing much happens there, anyway. Game of Thrones is-- should be-- a lot more action-oriented, and action is not what they do. Could be a big failure.

» Tue Jan 14, 2014 7:51 pm

I'd give a kidney for this!

» Tue Jan 14, 2014 2:44 pm

This could end up being the game that defines the next generation.

» Tue Jan 14, 2014 12:55 pm

Oh, cool.

Anybody play the first GoT game? It was on the 360 but I didn't like the look of it and never tried it. Was that any good?
