edited May 2014 in The Walking Dead
I dont know if im allowed to do this but f*ck it. Its time we came out of the Shadows and let our voices be heard that we want more than just 90 minutes of gameplay on episodes we Want 2 or PLUS hours and this is not only for The Walking Dead but also for the Wolf Among Us. Now everyone thats on board in this Revolution leave a comment even people who disagree let your voices be heard and please be civil dont disrespect someone for having a different opinion than you.

    I agree. We need episodes to be at least 2 hours long. I'm thinking that the last episode of the season will be mammoth, though. (Let's hope)

    Yeah, as much as the episodes have been great, they do feel a little short. If they add hubs it would be perfect.

    What's the point of leaving comments? The feedback on this board has been overwhelmingly tilted towards saying 90 minutes is too short for an episode. Same with the TWAU board. Likewise, there has been widespread call for the return of hubs. All of this has been going on since the first episode of season 2, months ago.

    It hasn't changed anything. Even if every voice on the forum spoke out unanimously for longer episodes, I'm skeptical it would change anything.

    We can't have a revolution without martyrs.

    Does anyone volunteer?
  • Its_That_GuyIts_That_Guy
    Atleast theres people that feel the same. Season 2 and TWAU have soo much potential but this 90 minute rule Telltale has placed is just horrible.

    There's gotta be a more efficient way. Maybe storm the Telltale offices and chain ourselves to the desks until they relent.

    And we aren't even asking for EVERY episode to be 2 hours. A few being 90 minutes isn't bad. But there needs to be a few longer and akin to 2 hours as well.
  • Its_That_GuyIts_That_Guy
    I completely agree with you at least the 2 last episodes should hit the 2 hour mark or MORE lol

    inb4 "But it's perfectly ok just 90 minutes!!!"

    I am here, as I have always been, in favor of this. I must warn you, brothers and sisters, that I fear Nick was right:

    "What's the point? Its never going to stop."
  • SergeantSnookieSergeantSnookie
    Now I'm imagining episode 4 and 5 moping in a shed drinking whiskey after their three siblings were eaten by evil runtimes. "It happened to all them. Now it's going to happen to us."

    ...I need sleep. Or coffee...

    Hmm, 90 minutes = 3 months. By that math how long to you think it would take a 2 hour episode? The answer? Half of a year for one 2 hour episode. People are complaining about the wait time already and they have met a decent balance with a 3 month wait and managing to release an episode of TWAU within that window. You seriously want to ruin that because you want longer episodes? To borrow a point from Telltale, there is a consequence for the choices you make and this choice based on revenue and relevancy of the franchise would be the equivalent of Kenny getting bit and dying a slow and painful death. This is not a good idea and that isn't based on opinion (as so many love to use that card) its based on a fundamental understanding of how business, creative processes and the potential for plans changing on a fly due to unforeseen circumstances work,
  • Its_That_GuyIts_That_Guy
    Hmm... Dont take it as a bash but Season 1 episodes were 2+ hours and some episodes literally came out one month after one another so I do have to disagree but I will give you a like. As for saying that i wish to ruin this franchise i will dig myself a hole if i ever thought to myself to do something like that to TWD.

    "90 minutes = 3 months."

    Yeah, those numbers are trickier to interpret than some might think. You look back on Season 1, and the episodes were longer, developed in a comparable amount of time. Thing is, they have had to code in the variables from S1+DLC and what seemed to be more diverging decision branching for this season (*In Harm's Way* made me doubt the last one). Add the fact that *Wolf* is also being worked on, presumably at the same time, and we don't know just how much it affects the development of new TWD episodes.

    What takes so long for episodes of such length? The new supposed "branching"? The bigger package that sprawls from Season 1? *The Wolf Among Us*? Who knows.

    I understand wanting longer episodes, but you should consider that that'd mean longer waiting times, too. When the episode wasn't out yet, everyone was in a rage at how long Telltale were taking to release it (even though compared to the EP1-EP2 wait, it was rather short). I personally wouldn't mind a bit more waiting if it means better quality, but I was mostly satisfied with EP3, so I don't feel like it's necessary.

    I mean, that's my opinion and I get the criticism; all I'm saying is that you shouldn't lose sight of the fact that making something valuable takes time.
  • CornPopperCornPopper Banned
    I also vote that they quit working on so many games if its going to affect the quality of them.
  • Its_That_GuyIts_That_Guy
    True... But i believe telltale should of thought all of this through and knew that having multiple franchise will affect the episodes time frame so what they should have done(dont flame me for this lol) TWAU then Season 2 they should of given both their own time frame.

  • Its_That_GuyIts_That_Guy
    I respect your opinion but season 1 did prove that if telltale focuses enough 2+ hours is a walk in the park. Now lets not forget that since Season 1 their staff has increased.

    They probably did and thought it was the best decision "business wise" to make. They have to invest in a new generation of gaming consoles too mind you which means a more advanced system which also means more employees, different tech, etc which means more money. The fact that they can manage all of this right now is great because it could be a lot worse due to the circumstances and I'm not saying you would like to ruin this franchise but there are some factors that I don't think you and a lot for people who share your views see. Just because episodes were 2 hours before doesn't mean the same can be done now

  • dumpfmoebeldumpfmoebel
    I think their simultaneous work on different franchises definitely plays a role. I mean, they still release one episode per month, just not episodes of the same franchise. They don't want to neglect either of them, so I think they'll focus mostly on one of them at a time: When a TWDG episode is out, they spend a month working harder on TWAU, then, when the TWAU episode is released, they shift the majority of their attention to TWDG again. ...I admittedly am not very knowledgable on how game developing plays out in the detail, though, so that's just a hypothesis.
