danceswithsloths Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 (edited) Nice, sounds cool. I still havent gotten around to playing the game of thrones one or the borderlands one, but i love the telltale walking dead games. As for the waste of the physical copy... Idk. I prefer physical copies for my games so maybe they are aiming for my demographic but i would much prefer the whole game be on the disc.

Superstarmaste1r Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Not going to fall with buying their games after how annoying it was dealing with frame rate issues of other games by Telltale where I don't believe that this game will improve those issues in all consoles.

x9zachattack5x Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Eh, I'll wait for a badass sale. It will be a great game, but I don't feel like waiting for months in between episodes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superstarmaste1r Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 They're silky smooth on PS4. That doesn't make fair to make them smooth on ps3 or on other consoles. This is supposedly on a new engine so hopefully they fixed all those annoying issues Same but I would just wait and not bother on looking for this game until it's true. Screw Telltale for right now.

Daniel_Shadow170 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 That is really stupid not having the whole game on disk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon-Archon Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 What a way to troll people by releasing only 1 episode on the disc. Seems to me TellTale could've saved some money and do a retail release after all episodes were finished. Eh, I'll wait for a badass sale. It will be a great game, but I don't feel like waiting for months in between episodes. Me too, I never play episodic games until all episodes are available. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stitchesnscars Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 We live in a time of binge watching an entire season of a television show on streaming networks and they want to piecemeal a disc version? See you in 2018 when you're done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iMichal9 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 (edited) So it's really like Minecraft Story Mode.. EDIT: Didn't read the whole thing Edited July 15, 2016 by iMichal9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satoshi Ookami Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Brilliant, making a disc with half of the content! Fantastic. So will it have a Vita version or is that just a stupid question? What is Vita? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GarciaFever Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 (edited) Before I actually get the disk, I can somewhat guarantee that they will pull the same shit that they did with the Minecraft TellTale version, where they released the first 5 episodes, and then a few months later they will release more dlc that we will never get to see. Like stitchesnscars said, I will see you in 2018. Edited July 15, 2016 by GarciaFever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlareXV Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 So I guess that Telltale will release an episode we go around as Batman, trying to find out the reason why TT only release games in episodic format and never full season bundles at the beginning? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AuzzieWingman Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Its really annoying that they release a disc with just one episode. They didnt pull this shit earlier with TWD 1 and 2, and TWAU. At least Capcom knew what the fuck they were doing with Revelations 2. I swear Telltale is the lovechild of Comcept and Bethesda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oobedoob S Benubi Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 (edited) I like the Telltale titles but they are dicks when it comes to sales. When you put a season pass on sale before even releasing the second episode, you lose me as a day one buyer. I'll wait for one of those sales, August is filled with No Man's Sky for me anyway. I saw they finally upgraded their programming engine with Batman, by the way. About time. Edited July 18, 2016 by BillyHorrible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super-Fly Spider-Guy Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 So... GoT didn't have the whole season on disc, Minecraft didn't have the whole season on disc, then had an additional pass you needed to buy anyway on top of the disc, and now Batman won't have the whole thing on disc. Well, the main reason one would wait to buy it on disc, presumably, would be to have the whole thing on disc, by taking that away, you're taking away what is literally the main reason I'd buy it on disc. And no, this doesn't make me want to go digital, in fact, it makes me want to buy it, use the code, then return it like the prick I am and get the whole season for nothing since episode 1 always ends up free anyway. Which brings up another point, you guys are being total ♥s to the preowned market, buy the new Telltale game new for 60, or buy it preowned for 55 or some jacked up price, and only end up getting episode one anyway? Real fucking nice. Borderlands came out a bit later and had the lot on disc. That's how it used to be, that's how it should be, and the fact you could even try anything else is fucking retarded. Buying the disc is really useless, you may as well just give people a PDF of the cover with purchase of the season pass because you're getting a the season pass and a useless disc and a cover, that's it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KratosTheMighty Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Yea that whole disc contains only the first episode thing is bullshit. No point in buying physical if they pull that shit. I'll buy the game when it's on sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
