And c'mon, they're just taking cues from the show's own loose understanding of geography with Ramsay at Ironrath. Ramsay teleporting from Dreadfort on the east coast to Ironrath on the west coast is no more egregious than some of the spectacular distances Littlefinger covered in Season 2.

Litterfinger's chariot of literal golden dragons is still one of my favorite ASOIAF theories.

Is it good even if you don't give two shits about the franchise?

I think the general consensus is "yes". Earlier in the thread there's this. edit: hey, why did you edit?

I enjoyed Tales from the Borderlands despite not being a fan of Borderlands, which has helped hype me up for this game and its approaching release date. Here's hoping it's a good one. The family reminds me quite a bit of the Starks.

For somebody who has never played a game like this (but has played other video games) what is the gameplay like?

is it mostly narrative that my wife and I could watch together or is it hacking and slashing?

I don't play video games anymore, but we like the game of thrones world, so I thought maybe this would be fun to do together. But that's only if it's more story and less video gamey.

These games are the definition of narrative over gameplay; it's 100% talking and sometimes looking at things.

Almost none. Sure there's the idea that you might want to look at alternate dialogue options for kicks, but most of it stays the same so people lose interest. It's like trying to replay Phoenix Wright, you'd only really get joy out of it if several years passed and you forgot most of the plot.

Definitely feel like I backed the wrong horse in that regard
On the other hand who could have figured that something with Borderlands in the title would actually be good?

I did because Borderlands is good.

...I could never get anyone to try Tales though. :negative:

There seems to be a general air that it sold badly. Until it went on a Humble Bundle for pennies I couldn't find anyone else who played it period.

Is there a Telltale general thread or anything? I just finished Walking Dead Season 1 (Not the 400 Days DLC though) and would love to talk about what I liked and disliked about it, though I don't want to derail the Game of Thrones thread or anything.

You could use the Adventure Game thread, that has Telltale chat sometimes.
