I was gave the whitehalls alot of poo poo and punched gryff but I backed down after a while. If the forresters are going down, they are gonna take the whitehalls to hell with them.

Doctor Reynolds posted:Great episode. I like how everyone's more or less split in the middle decision wise, too. Political scheming be complicated, yo! My choices screen never showed, and it isnt in the choices menu. but my saves are intact. gently caress.

Buzkashi posted:Granted I'm only getting a secondhand account of it from my girlfriend, but it really doesn't sound like it's moving past the teen poo poo. Plus it sounds like this last episode of it completely negates everything else you've done/discovered thus far. I have been watching the super best friends play through of it and while i find the mechanics cool, i cant stand anything else. the dumb teen poo poo, the lovely,awful rear end in a top hat of best friend that is Chloe, they annoying hipster motif and constant internet/meme/reference humor. Sucks because there are alot of cool ideas and concepts that are explored ( The suicide attempt ) Tell tale has alot of issues when it comes to choice and actions but they are great at making choices feel great in heat of the moment scenes.

I picked asher to live. He is a warrior and not wounded and he has respect of an bunch of sellswords and my honest guess of the ending is both houses will die horribly.

So It Goes posted:The trailer for the telltale minecraft thing looks absolutely awful. Like, that art style is just hideous. yeah. it doesn't look that great, i might pick up the first episode, but other then that ehh. i want telltale to pick up more franchise or maybe a new IP. GoT is alright, it has a decent amount of gut punches, the obvious problem is the amount of plot armored show/book characters that appear in the game. my honest guess is that it they are gonna end it on a cliffhanger for a possible season 2.

Ekusukariba posted:It's basically just playing a Minecraft Machinima? So is this game for like kids rather than the normal older fanbase that telltale games have? and does anyone recognize the female voice? sounds really familiar, Ellie from Last of Us? maybe. My honest guess is the all the families will kill each other to the last person.

Max posted:Here's the funny thing about the Tyrion scene, and I hope this plays out in episode five (it probably won't because it isn't a very well written game): Right at the beginning of his scene, he says that he was expecting Bronn. Hopefully there's an option to tell Cersie that he is expecting help from him, which would be cannon, since she then bribes him with a lordship. thats what disipoints me about the GoT game. It never really does anything. i mean gently caress, tell tale made a loving borderlands game that had actual humor and characters, not lovely memes and drooling retards. So its disappointing to me that they havent done poo poo with the GoT universe. I found the first few episodes pretty good, but i feel like they wrote themselves into a corner just like they did in wolf among us. it espcialy sucks because much like Walking dead 2. you can see the narrative walls and constrictions plain as day.

Asema posted:They left to make Firewatch: http://www.camposanto.com/about/ I kept hearing about that game from various people, Some i respect and some i don't. I think it looks interesting, but i am afraid it will go down the "gone home" road and not have anything interesting or horror related happen.

Spikeguy posted:One thing I've heard about the Minecraft one from a friend of mine is that his kids LOVE it. And it's probably for the same reason that Tycho said on Penny Arcade, that these kids who play Minecraft might not be used to storylines in their favorite game so getting one was just so different that it made a big impact. I wouldn't be surprised to hear that the game is a big hit for younger players. yeah, i played the first episode and it wasnt too bad. it had kinda of a goonies feel.

Karnegal posted:The issue was working in the middle of an established IP, but also needing to bring in a million well-known characters. In WD you get early cameo of Glen, but then he's gone. In Wolf Among Us, they clearly had a lot of latitude in what they did with characters and it was a rich setting for adding new ones. GoT suffers tremendously from characters having plot immunity and the player knowing what's about to happen to them. Why cut a deal with Tyrion when he's about to get jailed? Obviously Dany won't give you teh second sons no matter what, etc. I think if they had made a game like set farther back in westorosi history. like the hedge knight stories in A knight of the seven kingdoms. It could have been great.

bobjr posted:So who wants to be on the ending being Gareth reaching the North Grove, and looks into a shining light as it ends on that as a cliffhanger RBA Starblade posted:I'm going to go with everyone dying. these. the first 3 episodes were good, but then it starts to falter around 4 and falls flat at 5. see with walking dead, the narrative "walls" were less obvious at least the first time through. this was mostly because it was all original characters who were well written. same with borderlands one. Game of thrones has just to many plot armored characters and non choices. all the choices basically end with a main character from the show walking up, saying gently caress you(maybe nicely or rudely) and you kind then just meander down a linear story. I personally think the first 3 and half episodes handle it alright. the whole garret killing brett thing is good example. but the pay off sucks. no matter how you played it, you never get to say, "i killed him in self defense" and even is chad or biff agree with your statement, drill seargent still fucks you over. thats where the game starts to take a downturn. then with the second appearance of Ramsay, it shits it self. I dont mind choices being false to an extent, but don't make it so transparent.

RightClickSaveAs posted:Telltale games have always been that way, sure, but for Game of Thrones your lack of choice is even more transparent and that's the main issue with it. Take any scene with Ramsay Snow for instance, anyone who knows the show (and books I'd assume?) realizes that you can't even pretend anything you do in those scenes matters one bit. Usually their games are a lot better at hiding that fact and you can buy into the fiction of player agency on some level. thats what me and others have said. you have the entire history of westros, do adventrues of Sir dunk the tall and egg his squire. or do the make up some new side story in another time.
