So, I was bored and I decided to google "Info Quest 1" (Because I wanted to see what Info Quest 1 was) but there was only stuff about Info Quest 2. Then I set it so i would only show results from before December 10th, and geuss what shows up? The link to the Telltale Games Minecraft Story Mode page. And geuss what date it had? August 29 2014. This game has been planned for almost 4 months! This could mean a whole bunch of things. First of all, Mojang & Telltale started working on this before the Microsoft purchase. This also means that development into the came could be pretty far. So, thoughts? Alt text

    Writing takes a LONG time, even if it was in August i wouldnt expect Minecraft The story to come out until mid 2015.

    I predict Theyll work back to back with TWDS3 and MC, so one month theyll release MC, next month theyll release TWD: S3 (unless MC doesnt have episodes)

    Yeah. It's been confirmed by Telltale that they have things in the prototype stage to pitch to companies long before anything is ever announced, and definitely long before the game is finished and released. There's stuff that we'll never see (Telltale wanted to do a Scott Pilgrim game that was confirmed to have been turned down, prior to the release of The Walking Dead, for instance) as well as stuff that we'll be seeing in the upcoming years.

    The Walking Dead was confirmed to have started off as their Pilot Program Zombie Prototype before they pitched it to Robert Kirkman.

    They have confirmed that MC has episodes. Just remember that if they do release it back to back, it won't always be back to back, it's just whichever team finishes first.

    I bet whoever turned it down were pretty pissed at themselves after the success of TWD

    Actually, it seems much earlier than that even! Note the date that this tweet was made:

    I recall offhandedly hearing somewhere (maybe it was in that Dan Connors thread after Jurassic Park) that they at one point also considered a Gorillaz game... and people say a game from Minecraft was far out there. :p
