Are they making too much seasons?
There's 3 seasons out and I played all of them and now I'm not even that excited for season 4 I will probably only play it for the story even if season 4 is the last walking dead game ever made I still feel like there's to much seasons.

No. They could have made loads of seasons and stories if they didn't do so many time skips and killed so many characters each time.
No, 4-parts-series is actually very intelligible and neat, just imagine it as a series of books, a tetralogy looks very nice on the shelf if only it creates a continuous, rugged whole and works as a proper story.
I think you can make a lot of seasons if the story is good enough. In the case of ANF it did not really work out but maybe Season 4 will be better.
TWD is a Telltales biggest game so it makes sense they made 4 seasons and 2 DLC.
No, the average length of most shows is 5 seasons. There should have been 5 seasons, but the series has been on a downward spiral since season 2.
No, especially since I was expecting (and hoping) for a lot more seasons than this.
No, 4 installments in a franchise is enough to make a video game story.
No
ya I'm really over sequels to everything tbh. I would rather developers take a one and done approach to games and movies and put out kick butt content than all these weakly written mind numbing installments loosely tied to one theme and little else. Quality over quantity.
No. Four seasons is reasonable. Anymore than five seasons would probably be too much.
No but they're coming out too fast
Three part trilogies tend to work better, and are more common, but telltale pretty much screwed that potential with ANF. So, I guess they forced themselves into a 4 part series, but I have my doutes about that as well. You said it yourself, a multi part story works well "if only it creates a continuous, rugged whole" and that is where ANF becomes a problem. It breaks the progression of Clementine's story. If ANF was about Clem (and was written well) it could have been a finale to a trilogy that would have been Clem's story, but it didn't. So, I would disagree and say yes they are making too many seasons because the already broke the progression that was Clem's story, so they might as well let the series die peacefully as is. Let it fade into obscurity. It wouldn't end on a high note but at least its murder by telltale wouldn't be dragged out.
I agree, I wish they made ANF about Clementine and closed her character arch in a "beginning-middle-end" 3 part series. After that they could've started experimenting with whatever the frick they want, new protagonist, new storylines, etc.
Maybe too many seasons featuring our main protagonist, Clementine.. (I felt that Telltale could have just ended her story with Season 2. 5 ambiguous endings for people to take whatever meaning they want from it).
But I would like to to see them wipe the slate and try to make a different Walking Dead season with a whole new cast of characters to mess with. Season 1 didn't need a sequel, and I think that if Telltale could originally planned for a multi-season story, we could have some good ones where we have a central group to take control of instead of a singular person linking the seasons together.
Too many people have died already. I'd like to see something where we can pick up the story of our recognisable group instead of our recognisable survivor.
I agree. I'd rather see Telltale take on a fresh slate instead of trying to tie Clem into each Season. Under the context of Season 1 presumably not being planned to be a multi-season story initially, I'd have rather seen Telltale end the Lee/Clem story on a high note by stopping that one story after Season 1 ended.
Yeah I feel they couldn’t just keep adding to the story because otherwise they would keep just adding more and more story to keep it relevant which would make it get boring. For example I liked ANF but the story was pointless and they had AJ taken away for no real reason so the story could keep going even though it could have just ended at season 2.
