I'm sure we've all noticed that in season 3, Max has gotten the pointy knuckles, elbows and knees that he has in the comics. But Sam, who also has pointy knuckles in the comics doesn't! Why not Telltale?
And Sam got his soul ripped from his body, transforming him into an undead monster who is unable to communicate with the living, and Max got to be a zombie.
I wonder if Sam and Max's new design was influenced by the statue that was released last year? That also had Sam and Max with pointy knuckles, knees and elbows. And Max had slightly glossy teeth, which he also has in season 3.
I still kinda think that the addition of shadows just gave more definition to otherwise obscured detail on their models, but I dunno, there was what, a year or so between them?

That's partly it -- the realtime lighting is improved -- but the characters were both also pretty heavily upres'd, given more detail in their models (especially in their faces, to allow the animators to create facial expressions and mouth shapes with greater detail), and had high res normal maps painted (note Sam's jacket and suit are now correctly baggy and full of folds), and as a result Max now has some slight knuckles, while Sam's beautiful hands go unloved.

Oh hush, you.
You'll burn in Hell, LLC. for that comment!
Max became the president of the United States, after all
That was because Sam always answers the phone! It's not the same!
See his eager ready look. He's obviously saying "I want you to give it to me, Sam!"
Oh, wait, that's not what you meant by no Knuckles for Sam? I...uh...well...
[runs out of the topic screaming monkey noises]
The truth is out!;)
Yeah that's why we made him the playable character instead of Max.
You'll be a getting a very stern letter from Canada soon.
.... And I named my first born after your company... Shame Jake! SHAME!
Why? 'cause he's a DOG?!
You guys are so speciesist.
What? Someone beat me to the pun? Damnit.
And Sam is not even vice president.
Unless he got bumped up after Mr. Spatula's incident.
It seems not. The stone statue of Mr. Spatula is vice president now.
Best dev response I've seen on any board.
And I read Mythic's entire defense to stealing money from their customers.
Thanks Jake, this was seriously great.

Sorry.

Yeah lots of people hate me...
OH, you meant the Dog Sam?!
<_<
>_>
Yeah!
Noticed that right away, particularly on Max. Looks nice.
I'm curious about this remark. Is it possible to elaborate so I least the hands recieve love from me?
