What if the game had black and white graphics? (video)

Long time ago I heard Telltale saying that the original ideia for the game was to have black and white graphics, just like the comic book art style.

At first I thought: "Shit, I'm glad they cut that idea off", but then I saw this video, which is about Lee and Kenny bromance, the video has black and white effects.

When I saw this I realized that the game being black and white would be a genious move, it matches with the game atmosphere so much, looks pretty as hell and also would like a lot like the comic book.

Anyway, that is just my opinion. What do you guys think?

    I'm not sure, I like both, but I think I'm leaning towards black and white, that's pretty cool!

    I think it would look bad.

    It would make sense considering the comics are in black and white, but I'm glad they went with color. I like the black and white, but having it in color is better.

    More debates over if Clem is black or white. (She's black, get over it).

    I would be glad if there were a in-game option to change the graphic's colors

    I dont know, obviously advertising your game in black and white only wouldn't attract that many people

    I agree, but story-driven games doesn't attract the mainstream public as well. TWD is a game destined to a very specific public

    As someone who does a lot of Video editing, its easy to record, then encode it to black and white.

    True, but its already hard to get someone to play a zombie game where all you do is talk, and if you said that it was black and white, it might be a even bigger turn off for some people

    I think black and white would be too bleak, even for apocalypse.
    Also, does anyone know any Youtube letsplayers which went with Kenny troughout?

    I don't like it , but if you want to play in black and white then just adjust your TV colour settings, there you go.

    If it's going to be in black and white, better do it in style!

    Because it seemed relevant.
