TTWD: Final Season is SAVED!

 Robert Kirkman is awesome... but also kind of a jerk. That joke was totally too soon. See Tweet Below.

With NYCC (ComicCon) going on this weekend, I think the last thing Twdg fans expected was for Robert Kirkman and SkyboungGames to pick up and finish The Walking Dead: Final Season. 

I was waiting to see what news Telltale had for us, and as the week went on, it started to look grim. But the big surprise that TTWD: Final Season, wasn’t too surprising. I was suprised that the game was saved, but not by who saved it. Robert Kirkman and SkyboundGames picking up TTWD just made sense. Seeing as though they did the comics and all. Plus it didn’t help that Robert totally gave it away with that terrible joke. 

Now that we know the Final Season is going to be finished, even with some minor delays, we can rest a bit easier. I can’t wait to finish TTWD: Final Season, no matter how long I have to wait for it. 

So thanks Robert, TTWD: Final Season is Saved.

Telltale, I’ll Miss You.

I was shocked at the recent news that Telltale Games was shutting down. I’d been playing their games for a few years and some of my favorite games of all time were The walking Dead: Season One, and Tales From The Borderslands. And with The Walking Dead: The Final Season here, I wanted to see how Clementine’s story would end. 

Now we might not get that. Six long years of waiting, I crave to see it finished and I’m hoping they figure out a way to do that. The Final Season surprised me with how good the writing was, the new characters, and gameplay elements, I thought that this would be the best that Telltale has ever created. Sorry Season One. 

But since they are shutting down, I would like to thank them for all they’ve done. The stories that they have written and created have given me long hours of enjoyment and excitement, anger and sadness. I know there won’t be any other company that can do what they do, and I wish all the employees good luck on finding jobs in the industry. Telltale Games, I’ll miss you for sure.
