Telltale Boderlands Game
Well, consider me surprised.
I'm not sure how to feel about this. While it's nice to see Telltale returning to comedy, I'm just not a big Borderlands guy. On top of that, if Telltale was going to make a full game out of something featured in Poker Night, I'd much rather it have been TF2, Venture Brothers, or Evil Dead.
Also, Borderlands' setting just isn't that interesting. It's good for a few laughs, I guess, but I can't begin to imagine how a character-driven story on Pandora would work.
If Telltale ever got to work on a Venture Brothers game, I would die happy.
I'm super hype about their announcements. BUT I really wish they'd make a new Monkey Island and a Poker Night 3 with more characters and online.
I agree. Borderlands strong point is definitely not characterization.
Apart from Handsome Jack, of course.
Well...I've been away a while, obviously.
And incidentally, this new forum thing....says a lot. Fables and Walking Dead the only forums it shows?
Anyway...To me, the announcement was just another indication that Telltale's focus remains on chasing the money from hot licenses and the fabled "mass market" gamer and that they have no intent to return to actual adventure games with puzzles and gameplay anytime in the near future.
Game of Thrones would've been a bizarre enough choice for Telltale, but licensing Borderlands? I'd say Telltale's recent direction says a lot about why Activision pulled the King's Quest license away from them. Can only imagine what a disaster that would've been.
With Kevin Bruner's recent statement about having no plans of additional seasons of the titles that built Telltale to the point they had the money for licenses, I'm one old-school adventure gamer that'll miss a company that, for a brief moment, represented a resurgence of classic quality adventures, even if they were in this weird new chopped-up monthly format.
Firefly episodes... Now.
Gonna close this thread since we already have a particularly active one going. Feel free to continue the discussion there!
