Carley getting capped in Ep3 is brutal. I guess you can save her, but apparently the one you save dies anyway later on?

i mean i already saw that but yeah it is hard not to read those things.
and re: oh damn, YEAH that was an OH DAMN moment for sure. completely didn't see it coming, so without pomp or "meaning", just horrible
you know what? new thread because ALL THIS GAME IS is spoilers
― "Iron" (Will M.), Wednesday, 9 January 2013 15:58 (eleven years ago) link
Yeah that's an especially shitty one because people had moved on from talking about TWD and were talking about middle manager of justice, which I didn't care about reading spoilers for...but no, you were spoiling a game I'm currently in the middle of playing.

yeah... damn. goddamnit. sigh.

as spoilers go at least that wasn't a BRUTAL one.
btw if you don't want spoilers DONT GOOGLE ANYTHING, i read like 2 spoilers in autofill while trying to find names of fucking VOICE ACTORS
― "Iron" (Will M.), Wednesday, 9 January 2013 17:50 (eleven years ago) link
Just go to imdb for the voice actors. Every game nowadays lists on there.

i want the cave to be good, but i want to play a demo first. after the non-longevity of stacking i need some proof of concept

― Mordy, Thursday, 24 January 2013 20:52 (eleven years ago) link
i started playing this (with my gf) last night! really enjoyable so far, but i haven't gotten too deep, so to speak (just entered the cave proper after the introductory puzzle).

― keef qua keef (Jordan), Thursday, 24 January 2013 20:55 (eleven years ago) link
this was charming and fun, if easy and short (the latter isn't a bad thing in my book though). fun enough to play through one more time with a different set of characters.

if that sounds glib then this sucks and also I read this news 5 minutes before I got to the Iain Banks thread, it's been a bad 5 minutes

it seems to me like this might be good news? they weren't doing anything w/ most of their adventure IPs, or making any great adventure games - so why not license some of that stuff out? maybe telltale will get to develop more properties? or do i misunderstand how this works?
― Mordy, Wednesday, 3 April 2013 20:53 (eleven years ago) link
That could be something good to come out of this, if Disney allows third-party licensing of their non-Star Wars properties. I think it's more symbolic, though. I don't think Sierra On-Line really got a proper burial, even as it continued to live on.
― Nhex, Wednesday, 3 April 2013 21:01 (eleven years ago) link
RIP best games ever but yeah the last amazing game was over 15 years ago.

curse of monkey island was so good that it may have killed the computer adventure game genre -- one reason warcraft adventures was canceled was because it didn't compare.
― abanana, Thursday, 4 April 2013 20:31 (eleven years ago) link
kind of interesting that Steve Purcell started at Lucasfilm Games and ended up at Pixar, and now they're both owned by Disney.
― abanana, Monday, 8 April 2013 18:12 (eleven years ago) link
I like that Steve Purcell is still out there, still posting amusing drawings to his Facebook.
Also, Raven Software released the sourcecode to Jedi Outcast and Jedi Academy.

Pay what you want DoubleFine humble bundle on now. So tempted to shell out the $35 and get the new adventure, but I'm far too skint. I might be really fuckin' cheap and pay a ha'penny for Costume Quest and Stacking instead. http://www.humblebundle.com/

― Mordy , Monday, 9 December 2013 19:06 (ten years ago) link
i have. it's pretty lackluster. all the human elements that drove walking dead are sapped with the fairytale stuff. maybe i'm just too familiar with the comic but the exposition is tiresome
