How?

story about sacrificing everything for your daughter
only the brownest of browns don't resonate with it.

>>724907607 (OP)
Kenny was a real one. I'd like to be his friend irl.

>>retarded writing filled with plot holes and missed potential
Such as?

>>724907607 (OP)
The characters carry it. Lee, Clem, Kenny are my FUARKING HEROES

Reminder that we may be getting a new game

>didn’t watch the show until the last two seasons
>last season happening
>literally zero threads about the show on /tv/
I’m amazed how little anyone cared about this show towards the end. People say Game of Thrones went to shit, at least people wanted to see the ending.

Actually it's the other way around.

>>724908375
No one wanted to see the ending because it actually was a launchpad for multiple spin-offs no one asked

>>724908073
Whats did he mean by this?

>>724908114
I would call bullshit before but seeing how good Dispatch is doing, I can see them reviving the series

>>724907607 (OP)
because the general narrative was solid, and the characters and dialogue were good; the writers were just kind of bad at filling in some of the blanks. episodes 3 - 5 was when the game truly found its stride

>>724907607 (OP)
because you played it or watched someone play it when you were 12

>>724908573
why are wyte folx like this?

>>724907714
But the main character is black and Clem isn't his kid.

>>724907798
You'd like anyone to be your friend IRL.

Glad the series is finished. I really don't want to play with that annoying nigger kid anymore or a peg legged dyke Clem.

>>724907607 (OP)
to this day I cannot fathom what the hell Bens problem was. That stupid fuck somehow managed to get three people killed in a single day.

>>724912810
I fucking hated that little nigglet so much. Five years old and talking like a grown adult and swinging a fireaxe well enough to amputate a leg? Fuck off Telltale. Even his parents were dogshit.

>>724912810
I honestly would not mind playing as Clem with a zombie killing prosthetic, make the story about her "getting back on the horse" and having to deal with external communities while expanding her own. As much as I hate those recent comics, exploring Clem outside of taking care of AJ wasn't that bad of an idea.

>>724913440
I’ve worked with neurotic retards exactly like Ben. Constantly fucking up, constantly apologizing, and constantly feeling bad for themselves over being a fuck up. You almost feel bad for them, until you realize they’re just afraid of being deservedly criticized.

>>724914768
He also was an outsider to a group that never really wanted him in the first place and already had internal tensions brewing, he never had a proper mentor because most of the group had their own problems to take care of.

>>724912161
I'd turn my son in too if he turned into a limp-dicked faggot sucking on some cave troon's shitty butt pucker in a dingy garbage filled room.

>>724907798
Only if it's not the apocalypse, Kenny seems like a chill dude in a mundane life, but once he starts to crack he might be too explosive to get along .

>>724913440
What the fuck was Larry's problem?

>>724908375
the difference is that the walking dead show always had retarded writing so its fall-off was more gradual

Character writing carried it. Though that went out the window with season 2 and 400 days.

>>724916774
something to note is that ben was in the group for at most two weeks before he died
the last 3 episodes take place over the course of four days, with ep2 taking place roughly a week and a half before that

>>724908114
I’d be willing if it doesn’t involve Clem or any previous characters, set it in a different part of America and maybe add some lite base management mechanics and it could be cool.

>>724925957
My insane theory is that they are somehow gonna try to do a crossover with every major TWD comic character that's still alive and include Clementine finally meeting them, because in their mind that's what could draw the fans of different corners of the franchise to a new game.

>>724908375
>at least people wanted to see the ending.
It certainly helped that GoT didn't go head first into forced diversity. I remember being completely checked out of twd when I saw a fat bitch in a hijab.

>>724907607 (OP)
>plot holes
Examples?
>>724908114
No one gives fuck anymore. The S1 devs are long gone, every single one, it would be a new game in name only. They even admitted S3 and S4 flopped hard, who the hell would they even make a new game for?

>>724928929
If Skybound has enough money to make a juicy deal with AdHoc, I could see some hype be reignited and the thing with the later Telltale games is the they were popular but not profitable because everyone and their mother watched them on youtube instead of buying them, there's an audience for these games, they just need to figure out how to make them worth playing instead of being watched.

>>724929324
>because everyone and their mother watched them on youtube instead of buying them
I don't think that's the reason at all. It's just that their newer games sucked ass and their sales dropped at the same rate as the writing quality did. Their early games sold really well because of word of mouth, but I don't know anyone who even played OR watched S4 on youtube.

I will not, can not play a story based game like this where you play a mutt woman like Clem, Lee was alright because he was masculine and a chad, same with A New Frontier.
There is no way I am playing as a mutt woman with a little nigglet kid running around though, that is completely unrelatable.

>>724931580
They for sure lost a lot of goodwill with the quality of their late games, A New Frontier even made many tune out from the series, the Final Season being announced as the end of Clementine's story did catch some attention, not to the point that it was a commercial success because Telltale saturated their own market with their games so everyone had fatigue and knew better. For all it's worth, there are S4 playthroughs with millions of views, mostly from the top youtubers/streamers of the time and while the overall sentiment was nostalgia of how time passed since S1, ultimately, mostly everyone was interested in whether Clementine would die or not. This is more anecdote than anything but I wasn't even into the Walking Dead back then but I can recall the news of Clem living made some splash, mostly from youtube reactions.

>>724913440
>his parents were dogshit.
Carver was pretty based.

>>724931672
Only way I'll accept not playing as Clem is if the player is a faceless self insert and get to romance her

>>724907607 (OP)
It's Kirkman I think. He just has a very odd view of people in general. Like he as a person wants to understand emotion but doesn't. Interactions don't feel very genuine and it's all kind of just like a high school drama. The game has a lot of this BS too but lots of good moments too

Why do the first 2 games feel so different compared to new frontier and the final season? It's kind of like the show as well, started feeling somewhat grounded and then just became ridiculous over time

Because the tv show and comic are shit so it wasn't hard to make something slightly better by distancing yourself from that shitty story.

>>724933210
A lot of the dialogue from the TV show feels like everyone is waiting to say their next big speech or quiet monologue that doesn't feel like an actual conversation, maybe it's less annoying in comic form but in person is weird

>>724933392
Maybe because of how further they are from the start of the apocalypse? S3 has the internal politics of a new faction that lives in a city and has you overthrow their government while S4 is more reserved, is still guerilla warfare against a group of raiders that ends with you bombing their ship. Compared to the first two that were smaller in scope, these escalated from survival into faction vs faction stuff.
