I guess I don't even know what I'm writing anymore at this point and I get mixed feelings about everything... So I'll make it clear.
My problem right now with telltale is that they have no slight communication with us on the month of what is supposed to be the release of the game.
A part of me wonders if that Twitter discussion was a mistake and or communication error on Job's part. Maybe he hoped/thought to take the Twitch weekly spot next week for Thanksgiving but didn't know Twitch would be taking a break at the time? That was the first I heard of it, can't imagine anything else.
I guess for now, hold out for next week and hope for a trailer whenever?

wtf, are you serious? Are you trolling? Not that I wouldnt put it past them to change the release date so blatantly and shamelessly after they peddle it for months to be November, but seriously? In 3 months?
Ok ready to have our balloons bursted........I just went to game stop and asked if they were given another release date for TWDS3, and they … morehave indeed been given another release date.........The Walking Dead Season 3 release date is scheduled for.............FEB 2017! I asked my son to repeat himself cuz he works there, and indeed I wasn't mistaken! Feb 2017....WTH?!? I'm FREAKING OUT GUYS! Can anyone offer me words of encouragement? If this is indeed true, I'm at a loss for words!
we had this discussion before. tales episode were 2 hours and able to be beaten in one sitting. people finish movies in one sitting heck life is strange episodes arnt that longer then a walking dead season 1 or tales episode and i finished them in one sitting.
from what i've heard as i have not played it batman seems to be 2 hours as well expect for episode 2. this is more a walking dead team issue then telltale at large as game of thrones another popular property was 2 hours as well.
Telltale thinks that Season 1 was successful because people liked that it felt like "Interactive TV" as opposed to liking the immersive, slo… morewer paced role playing. That is why Season 2, Wolf, and all other Telltale games since have fewer hubs/puzzles, shorter episodes, more streamlined gameplay, etc.

Tell that to Telltale; I'm not defending it and I agree episodes should be longer, but I am just explaining their thought process. I have followed Telltale for several years, as far back as 2008-2010. I have seen their trajectory prior to Walking Dead, and even with their earlier titles like Jurassic Park and Back to the Future, they were experimenting with shorter episodes/less gameplay to make episodes feel more cinematic.
People think it is some new trend that started with Wolf/Season 2 that was the result of Telltale working on multiple games at once, but that is incorrect. The longer waits were from Telltale making live revisions to incorporate fan feedback on a larger scale after they saw how it worked out for Season 1. They tried to amplify it to a larger scale, even, but that led to 3-4 month waiting periods, so they have recently started going back to monthly episodes. It doesn't mean that they have less time to work on an episode, it just means that they are working on more of the episode in advance.
walking dead team issue then telltale at large as game of thrones another popular property was 2 hours as well.
Walking Dead Season 2 and Wolf Episodes averaged at 90 minutes; the same teams went on to work on Tales/Thrones, and those episodes averaged at 1 hour 45 min. I don't know what causes episode lengths to vary in duration after that, but it does not correlate with monthly episodes versus longer waits. People had to wait four months for Episode 2 of Wolf, and it was only 90 minutes. Batman Episode 3 was a monthly episode, but was the same duration as the average episode of Tales/Thrones (1 hour 45 minutes).
Older Telltale episodes were longer and still monthly, on top of having more gameplay in the form of puzzles/hubs/interactive bits, but Telltale moved away from that type of game design because in their eyes, the success of Walking Dead Season 1 validated their belief that people want interactive cinematic games instead of games with puzzles, hubs, etc. People liked it because it was a role playing experience, but Telltale saw its success as it being an interactive TV show/movie.

i know older telltale games were longer due to puzzles and such. i played them i enjoy them [ back to the future is my favorite of the older telltale games] and even then they all clock in about 3 hours.
the thing telltale is also really inconsistent. season 2 is their weakest game of the new era as it cut alot of the fat that made season 1 work. then borderlands happens and all it is back. i remember one section which had you able to talk to your crew in episode 3. and this is coming form someone who was very worried about tales as i thought it would be 90 minutes and rhys and fiona would not be able to devlop that much.
but i was wrong and tale became everyones favorite games. have not played game of thrones so can't comment on it.
i hope they learned their lessons from season 2. we don't need puzzles as i feel they get in the way in their current style. i just want developed characters that i can get attached to and enjoy the story. as even back in the day telltale was about great writing and characters.

Can i ask if anyone know when the 8 mins of S3 is released? of if its already released can some one provide a link thank you.
Waiting for S3....time dragging on.
I think a mod should just take the "hints of 8 minutes of footage" out of the title until Job or someone at Telltale confirms it. I guess this is a lesson for me, and others to not look for details in replies unless Job or Telltale mention it in his own tweet or whatever.
With how people like to make filler comments here, I would say that you should only expect news if you see, like 500 to 1,000 new posts in a short time. People make filler posts here a lot, so don't expect something small like 100-300 new posts to indicate anything special happened.

Oh yeah. This is the Walking Dead section. The one with the largest Telltale fanbase devoted to their highly praised hit. Other series would typically have less, based on preference of Telltale series. Makes sense.

Uh oh... What has Telltale done?

My problem right now with telltale is that they have no slight communication with us on the month of what is supposed to be the release of the game.
Disappointed is an understatement lol
Thanks.

You people and your 128 comments gave me a stroke.
That sounds about right.
Craaaaaab people, craaaaaaaaaaaaaab people.
An earthquake in California or a fire at Telltale headquarters.
Hey, I played no part in that, I swear!
That what? Generic dissapointment¿
@Kennyshouladiedins1 , I think phase 12 is approaching...
wtf, are you serious? Are you trolling? Not that I wouldnt put it past them to change the release date so blatantly and shamelessly after they peddle it for months to be November, but seriously? In 3 months?
Thank god we were going to "Catch Up Next (this) Week", weren't we?
It's already fucking friday.
On the other hand...
I know it's a joke but... my heart isn't sure...

Communication problems ?

Ellie is just shaking her head at the lot of you
She's going to have to wait who knows how long just to get her second game.
And when when it comes out, she might not even be in it.
I agree with this. Anyone can pretty much fake promises
Oh my god! What was that? xD
I think that this picture actually represents perfectly the situation that we are in, now. xD
