Well, Telltale has barely any money, just enough to sustain themselves for a little while longer. Lets say Telltale win over those partners … moreand receive money. What do you think is going to happen with this money once the lawsuit is won by the former employees? What? You think those "partners" are going to donate another round of money?
I call it a decent behaviour to care more about your family than a fictional character. Talk what you want but I fully support them. I wish … morewe could see TFS being finished but I can't just support Telltale in this matter. What they did was wrong and they have to pay for it.
I totally get the lawsuit. I'm torn because I want them to win but I also know that them winning likely means TFS will never be finished. Ultimately, I hope they win. I can always headcanon an ending if I need to.
I do want that but those "partners" aren't going to pay for Telltale lawsuits, forget about that. If they donate this money now, they are basically paying the employees who are going to win the lawsuit because they are in the right. What Telltale did was illegal.
Oh, I didn’t know caring about your family meant caring more about a dead end job in a dying company than a company that can actually help you make a better living. Telltale did them a favour, they didn’t know it at the time, but they did. Think what you want but there IS NO excusing what they’re trying to do to fans after all of the support we gave them. Should have taken the job or taken a walk.

Doesn't matter that they have offers for better jobs now. Still doesn't excuse how Telltale laid them off with no severence package. Talk all you want but this is justified. You're just mad because they're going to win and you won't see your precious TWD being finished.

The person(s) that is filing this lawsuit has no right. What would you rather have happen to you, be stuck in a company that makes no money, or be fired from that company, yet be offered a bigger, better job, with more pay? Choose.
I’m mad because it’s petty... they can just take the new job and leave the people who defended them their walking dead, but no, we get stabbed in the back.

If I were fired from a company I’d beat the shit out of the CEO and leave, that’d be enough for me, then I’d find somewhere better so I’m not harming the people who supported me
That line of thinking is just so wrong. Looking at Twitter, barely anyone who was fired got a new job and many won't have for weeks.
They… more have ALL the rights. I'd even say that they should all take part in that lawsuit.
What would you do if your company throws you out with no severance or health-insurance in a mass lay-off, that is not legal?
I'd sue the shit out of them.
No matter how you put it, the lawsuit was coming. Nobody can just lay off 250+ people for free and get away with it.
I'm just surprised it didn't happen sooner.
I’m mad because it’s petty... they can just take the new job and leave the people who defended them their walking dead, but no, we get stabbed in the back.
Now you're just mad cause you want the game finished, if you were in these people's lives you would understand, obviously they got fucked over bad and as much as I want the game to be finished, you gotta think of the people first.
Aww piss off. Y’know, I was on the side of the employees until they tried to pull this shit. Now they’re just gonna ruin it for everyone! Th… moreey couldn’t have done this AFTER the game was done? Like what do they actually expect to earn from a company with no funds? Hopefully another company does take over
Like @GSSalvador said, many of them didn't get a job and probably won't in weeks so it's not them stabbing us in the back, its them searching for justice for what Telltale done to them.
I’m mad because it’s petty... they can just take the new job and leave the people who defended them their walking dead, but no, we get stabbed in the back.
I don't think you'd have to worry about that. Should you assault a person, taxpayers like myself help keep you in a place you wont harm people. Where I live, it's called a jail.. cause assault is illegal ;P
If I were fired from a company I’d beat the shit out of the CEO and leave, that’d be enough for me, then I’d find somewhere better so I’m not harming the people who supported me
You wouldn't say that if that was you, you just want the game finished, these people are probably facing massive financial issues because of some idiots at the top of telltale who made some real bad choices. Real life comes first, these people need help.
If I were in their shoes, I wouln’t fuck over the people who defended me. I’d take the new, better, job I’m offered and leave the fans with what they want. How do people not see how hard they were just backstabbed rn?

They were offered free jobs, if they didn’t take it then that’s their choice and their problem to deal with. That job will always be there for them, and as long as it is then it gives them no excuse to do this. Even if the job wasn’t there for them, filing a lawsuit against a near-bankrupt company, that produces games that fans adore, the fans that defended you, is just petty, and traitorous. When I defend someone I expect them to treat me back the same way, apparently not this time.

You wouldn't say that if that were you, you really think ALL these people found jobs back ? Real life is more important there are a lot of people who are probably struggling to pay the bills and feed their familly. It's naive to think EVERYONE who got laid of find their jobs back.
Well now I say they probably deserved it. The amount of pettiness is unbelievable, considering that being fired from telltale was the best t… morehing that ever happened to them... a company with barely any funds, guess how many AAA companies offered them easy jobs? With much more pay? Exactly. The one’s who are trying to ruin this for us don’t deserve your pity, because this was just uncalled for.

ALL of these people were offered jobs. That’s the thing. If they didn’t take it then that’s their own fault, but I doubt they want to stay in that situation... unless they wanted to grab that little bit of cash and hope from us before moving on. Petty, idiotic, and I have nothing more to say on the matter, because people apparently can’t accept the fact that they were fucked bad.

Mate, if you'd have been worked to death (doing forced overtime), been treated like shit and then afterwards fired with absolutely no warning and no severance pay, wouldn't you feel used?

Again, they didn't get new jobs. They just got informed that certain studios are still hiring. They still have to apply to them, which is hard when the studio is in another state and they can't afford to move there because they got no severence pay and it takes weeks for an applikation to go through because there are thousands and ten thousands of devs looking for a job.

EVERYONE CALM THE FUCK DOWN! At the end of the day its a shitty situation for everyone involved and its very complex to make a judgement because ultimatly is not our fault or responsibility.
Its ok to sympatize with the employees who got fired and now are jobless with real life responsibilities
Its ok too to feel bad about telltale closing and tfs possibily getting cancelled
You shouldnt be ashamed to feel this things because its out of our control.

Maybe not doing posts pissed off at people for trying to get paid that are worried if they can feed their kids? Maybe not prioritize a game over them?
Just spit balling here..
I don't want to come off as an asshole, but there are things that are out of our control, and it is nor selfish or wrong to choose to ignore them, no matter how angry or sad they make you feel.

Fuck, I’m torn. On one hand, I really want this game to be finished, but objectively speaking, the employees deserve justice for what happened. Fuck, I really hate complicated moral dilemmas.

Nope, but that partners wants the game finished just like me and I think just like you, my friend
I don't think some company would donate money. They will most likely buy the rights from the game.
dont feed the trolls.. they'll multiply :P
I totally get the lawsuit. I'm torn because I want them to win but I also know that them winning likely means TFS will never be finished. Ultimately, I hope they win. I can always headcanon an ending if I need to.

Is there even enough money to pay them back?
Oh, but why "dad"?! It's so fun!
Those potential partners will probably help finish the final season.

Appearantly majority of people here are just not as "smart" as you.
Dude, that's even worse. What a way to destroy your career in the videogame industry.

They haven't been offered new jobs. They have been offfered a mere POSSIBILITY of a job.

You'll forgive me if I dont find it an endearing trait of a human being to care more about a video game than people who cant feed their families..
I understand. But what can we do about it? Nothing. Because we are not involved in the matter.
Maybe not doing posts pissed off at people for trying to get paid that are worried if they can feed their kids? Maybe not prioritize a game over them?
Just spit balling here..
Is true.
We have to understand that none of this is good news to us, Telltale or the employees.
In a way, we are on the same boat.
The same sinking boat.
Again, what can you do about people making hateful posts. Nothing.
And this dear children is exactly why TWD section of the forums was always considered toxic.
That's fair.. you got me there.
It's never going to end, is it?
I don't want to come off as an asshole, but there are things that are out of our control, and it is nor selfish or wrong to choose to ignore them, no matter how angry or sad they make you feel.
I do not disagree with you. My problem was that I interpreted you to justify such posts. That was my mistake. .
Fuck, I’m torn. On one hand, I really want this game to be finished, but objectively speaking, the employees deserve justice for what happened. Fuck, I really hate complicated moral dilemmas.
