  • In 2004 three disgruntled developers would ditch LucasArts and found Telltale, championing narrative-driven adventure games and even succeeding, for a time, at making them relevant again. But which are the best, and which are the worst? Here is Every Telltale Video Game Ranked from Worst to Best.

    In my playthrough of Batman, Harvey Dent never got his face burned off. In a playthrough I watched of the Enemy Within The Joker turned into a domestic terrorist. In my playthrough he turned into Discount Robin, complete with his own Joker shaped batarangs. So yeah, the choices doesn't really affect the outcome, but they DO create totally different experiences. And I love what Telltale did with the Batman characters. The Riddler was terrifying.

      Poker games suck. You can't bluff an AI so whether you win or lose is all down to what cards you get dealt and what entirely random actions the computer takes. And if all you want to do is see the character interactions, that's what CZcams compilations are for- better than watching the same ones repeat over and over again until long after they've ceased to be entertaining while you try to see all of them.

      So strange. That was the game that made me say "ah, I see why they aren't around anymore". It's actually a somewhat bad game, in the grand scheme of things. Obviously, more power to anyone who had fun with it (I have fun with Big Rigs OTRR from time to time). I'm just making an observation about my experience (one that seems to differ from most people here).
      What exactly did you like so much about it? I'm very curious, and I want to know why the game that was verbally trashed by my real life friends who liked Telltale Games is now so well loved. Are people being nice because the studio doesn't exist anymore? I don't get it.

      @@awesomeferret I found the game just a short while after playing Life is strange 1, because I was looking for something similar and since the Tales from the Borderlands was releasing about the same time as Life is strange and it also reviewed really great reviews I decided to give a chance without any prior knowledge of other Borderlands games. And for me the game was almost perfect. It had really great humor(at least for me), interesting and fun characters, while still having serious and sad scenes especially in episode 4 and 5. Great music too and awesome voice acting. Also this can't be applied to every, but because I didn't knew other Borderlands games I had no idea how bad Jack is and I even though he was actually just more like antihero than villain, so I trusted him more and it made the journey a lot better. And I since I don't care about gameplay if everything else is almost perfect than I can't say basically anything bad about this unless I would want to point out some smaller things.
      Also I don't know what kind of friends you had(but it could be possible they just expected it to be another Borderlands like game and then ended up being disappointed), but my friends also loved it.

    Even with their low points, you know Telltale was something special by the fact that people started referring to this style of game with the qualifier of it being like Telltale. They still have some of the highest consistency of writing across the catalogue.

    Batman enemy within is one of the few telltale games where choices (even dialogue choices) ACTUALLY mattered. Not all of them of course, but compared to nearly every other telltale game its the one where choices are heavy and have to be thought out

    Game of thrones was frustrating. I know the series is bleak, but it did feel like a 'why bother' moment as every choice led to even worse circumstances.

    I still remember seeing the original Sam & Max 2 trailer ("Hey Commissioner, how's the rash?") and getting hyped, only to be completely gutted when LucasArt's shut down their adventure game division--then get completely hyped again when Telltale brought Sam & Max back. What a time.

  • @DaveTheScwede
    @DaveTheScwede Před rokem +6

    I definitely gotta give Wolf Among Us my #1. The Walking Dead games are great, but can be inconsistent. There was also a frustrating predictability of the disasters that befell the protagonists, and there were one or two moments where it felt you were robbed of a decision, because they had to crowbar in yet one more disaster. Wolf Among Us's detective aspect made for a plausible reason for Bigby to be where he was and do what he did, but the plot was full of intrigue. The IP also had so many really clever uses of classic characters of folklore, it just never failed to entertain. Even the ending was a proper twist that actually landed solidly.

    After watching this video, I realize and kinda wish they would make a Telltale Spider-man game were you would have to balance between being Spider-man and Peter Parker. You could have the main vilain being the Sinister 6 so that you could have one vilain per episode and the last episode the leader and the last vilain not captured meanwhile for Peter you could have romance option between MJ or Gwen and if not Gwen, Black Cat.

  • @ArcaneAzmadi
    @ArcaneAzmadi Před rokem +2

    The Wolf Among Us really is a great game and a personal favourite of mine. Haven't played any of the other games on this list other than Poker Night 2... and frankly, that sucks because poker video games are always bad (you can't bluff an AI so whether you win or not is all down to what cards you get dealt and what completely randomised actions your opponents take), and if you want to experience the game's merits you're better off just watching compilation videos of all the characters' interactions on CZcams, rather than playing the game and watching them repeating mindlessly again and again and again long after they've ceased to be funny, waiting to see if there are any more unique ones you missed.

    In something like the 3rd entry Peter says the game was on PC twice when he meant to say PS3. I don't care either way, just thought the guys might want to know.
    Also, we need a Final Fantasy list. Keep up the great work gents! My wife says she hates when I watch other gaming channels because they don't have the same smooth, buttery British voices.

    I can't be the only one that never got tired of the Telltale post TWD formula, I thought it worked perfectly for an episodic release structure, unlike Hitman 2016, where I forgot how to control the game in between the episodes.
    It's also why I thought that LiS True Colors and New TftB suffered from fatigue as I was playing them since I don't usually binge watch shows anyway, allowing me to play a story based game like this does get a little samey after 10 hours.

    Maybe it's just me being more familliar with Team Fortress 2 and Homestar Runner but i liked Poker Night 1 better...might also have something to do with the fact you get free stuff in TF2 for playing it. the License to Maim badge, Max's Lugermorph pistol, the heavy's Iron Kurtain minigun reskin, Tycho's Enthusiast's Timepiece invis watch and Strongbad's iconic Dangeresque Too? hipster shades made famous by DemoPan. Also if you got it early enough you got the Dealer's Visor hat for Heavy.

    As someone who deliberately wrote "achievement walkthroughs" for the early XBLA entries to help the company's sales, I was disappointed to see them fold.
    I am still a serious fan of P'N'C adventures and believe there is a market for such games. I was happy to see them come back, but doubt they will develop games I hold dear and will (probably/definitely) steer their new titles towards a more "modern" narrative adventure.

  • @Joe90h
    @Joe90h Před rokem +1

    Walking Dead season 1, Guardians Of The Galaxy and Tales From The Borderlands are probably my favourites. I bought the 'ultimate bundle' which was almost everything released after Walking Dead Season 1 except for Minecraft, and Game Of Thrones was a real sticking point. I think including characters from the show was actually a downside as you knew characters like Cersei or Ramsey Bolton would continue to make your characters' lives hell with their comeuppance completely unrelated to your actions.

    I’m sorry, but did the writer of this video really call Jeff Smith’s Bone a “middle-grade graphic novel” and claim it’s only for kids? It’s literally one of the most revered and celebrated comic books in modern history, you don’t win 10 Eisner Awards and 11 Harvey Awards in categories like Best Continuing Series and Best Writer/Artist when you’re “middle-grade.” And just because there’s no graphic sex and violence that doesn’t automatically make it a kiddie book, Smith wrote it for adults and its been embraced by adults for the past three decades.
