    And In Too Deep? Hmmm.. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

    OzzyUK posted: »

    I just noticed that episode 1 has been rated "R16" by New Zealand and the first episode appears to be called "In Too Deep" http://www.fvlb.org.nz/nz/pages/publication-details.html?title=193230 Edit: It has also been rated 18 by PEGI

  • Nice! I've been checking the rating sites frequently as of late, so nice to see they finally updated.

    Interestingly enough, I suppose this also means we get Minecraft in March.

    Oh god my mind is terrible.

  • So when the game releases, will it be only digital or would we be able to buy a disc with a season pass? Would the first episode be free like the previous Walking Dead games?

  • Probably digital only for now, the retail version usually doesn't come out until all Episodes are out. It was different for MCSM, but that didn't work out too well.

    The first Episode will definitley not be free. It's a brand new game, and it only has three Episodes to begin with. The first Episodes of both Seasons cost 5$ as usual until a much later point in time. Episode 1 of Got and TftB became free shortly before they ended. And all these game had five (one six) Episodes. Making the first Episode of a five part series free in the very beginning would be bad enough, if it's a three part series you basically commit commercial suicide.

  • I don't exactly remember how it worked, but I can recall that for the Season 2 episodes, the Steam achievements had been released at least a month ago. Why haven't we heard about them for the Michonne Miniseries?

  • Extreme Violence. Now you've spiked my interest. First time The Walking Dead games been rated Pegi18 right.

  • The game has to be uploaded to Steam already for that to be possible. It seems that it isn't on Steam yet. As soon as that happens, we should be able to view the achievements for all three Episodes.

    No. Every Episode of any Telltale game since 'A New Day' has been rated PEGI 18, and all for similar reasons to the ones listed in the screenshot above (extreme violence, strong language etc). The only exceptions are (obviously) all Minecraft Story Mode Episodes and The Wolf Among Us Episodes 1 & 3, which were both PEGI 16.

    I'm surprised Episode 1 wasn't rated higher, that had some really violent moments.

  • I had noticed that, but I didn't think too much of it. Ozzy's find is interesting, although I wonder why they made the minor change from "Telltale Games Series" to "Telltale Series".

    Another interesting change is that "A Telltale Miniseries" is trademarked. I wonder if they're planning to make other short seasons in the

    They are only rated if the game contains nudity or drug use, as they are not ticked it means they won't be in the game.

  • Not as bad as Minecraft's 4th episode title, "A Block and a Hard Place"

  • No i didn't here about that. And yeah i played the first two episodes, enjoyed it. And i own all episodes on Xbox One. It's not for me, though. Didn't like Fiona and Sasha, if it focused on Rhys more, i might've enjoyed it. Glad TTG tried the 2 playable character feature.

    make a brand new original story. no one else's concept or ideas, just an original story. They're already doing that. Did you not hear? Have you tried Tales from the Borderlands by the way?

  • Noice.

  • NEWS TOMORROW!!

    The first five minutes of @TheWalkingDead: Michonne are haunting. Looping on repeat in my head as much as it does her own. News tomorrow!

  • I think it might be referring to the apparent dream thing with her daughters we saw in the trailer. That would sense, right? Looping on repeat?

    New Zealand, PEGI, Australia?! News Tomorrow?! Ahhh!!! Yes, finally some ratings, and all at the same time...

    Could this mean a release next week?... [excitement intensifies]

    e baby

  • Of course he's not!... [checks for pre-order]

  • Updated the thread. I'm guessing tomorrow will be release dates, key art, and a full trailer for episode 1.

  • edited February 2016

    That might be a bit much for one day, but I'd gladly take it! I think we'll get the release dates and possibly screenshots tomorrow, and a trailer on the Monday before the Episode releases.

    I'm starting to like their profile a lot better! This change can only mean one thing:

    VERY SOON.

    Side note: How do some forum users include title-sized words on their posts?

    The first episode of a Telltale series only becomes free on occasion towards the end of a series, sometime before or after the Season Finale. The Episodes are never free upon release. With this being a mini series, I don't know if they will make the first episode of Michonne free upon completion of the Season since this is not a full length Season.

    It takes place previous to the current timeline of the comics. Michonne left the group at the end of All Out War, which was about two years into the apocalypse at that point (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, as I just know about the comics from second hand knowledge).

    Telltale stated that they intend to tell the story of why she left, so they'd likely have to start at the beginning, which would be directly after All Out War. They also stated that they'd explain what brought her back, so they'll probably be covering the entire length of the two year timeskip that took place in the comics.

    Doesn't Michonne play after the two year timeskip though? Carl is 13 by now and was 9 when the outbreak started, which means that Michonne takes place 4 years in the apocalypse, while Telltale is only about 2 1/2 years in.

  • You are correct, wiki says she leaves in Issue 126 (last issue of the All Out War story line). Wow, I had no idea Michonne was gone for more than two years. I somehow had this idea that it takes place after the time skip.
