Leave Telltale alone(edited)
so i have been looking over the fourms and slap my forehead in disgrace.I swear if i see another thread that is insulting telltale i am done with the community.
for those of you who are not aware of these threads hers what they contain:telling telltale what a poor job they did on the recent episode,that they should have continued to tell a characters story,or how their choices dont seem to cause any difference,etc.
so im gonna break it down for these idiots.
How can any of you tell a game company that they did a poor job,if you have no idea how to create a videogame. i dont know step by step how,but i do know it takes alot of time ,money and hard work to create a videogame.especially one with so much dialog,they have to pay alot of actors to voice these characters.until youve created a videogame your opinion is invalid.
you people seem to forget what this is,this the walking dead,people die in so many unexpected ways,that is what they are doing.and maybe they kill these characters off because the voice actors are:leaving,fired,or are causing problems to be forced out.my point is you dont know,dont blame telltale for that.
and the one about their choices not making any difference,is bullshit.its just another thing they can yell at telltale about.my choices have done nothing but impact my story,either your not playing right or your not playing what im playing.
and another thing these thing you all are complaining about could be your fault.maybe telltale is tired of you bitching about every small problem that they give you something to bitch about.maybe if you wouldnt post every error they make on the fourms they would do better.no fuck that they dont need to do batter their doing the best they can and that is the best.
now ill say it again,and listen good,SHUT THE FUCK UP.
(by the way if you agree with this none of this is directed to )
edit:
you know what fuck it,im so fucking sorry for sticking up for telltale.they only brought us this game for us to enjoy,but no lets just yell at them for every little thing they did.ill go first,"hey telltale you better change that leaf on that tree or im gonna shit my pants and tell everyone on the fourms that you fucked it up".
IM FUCKING SORRY

Look, just ignore threads you find offensive or that you disagree with. No need to create a thread about it.
Don't you mean "Britney"?
Thank god i'm not the only one who thought about that when i read the title. =p
well apparently they only listen if i post a thread about it
what?
TTG is a big boy and can handle the criticism
They don't have to listen to anyone. Let them have their opinion (Even if it makes no sense, because sometimes it dosen't.)
There's already been alot of threads complaining about the last episode , we don't need a swarm of ''Stop complaining threads'' now.
You don't wanna know lol
This does not excuse them from criticism and a lot of the "stupid shit" people criticize is perfectly valid.
my point is they've worked to hard just to get complaints about stupid shit
oh well
And if they do stuff that angers people? We have a right to call them out for it. Americans have freedom of speech, not freedom FROM it.
Pulling the "Be able to do something before you criticize it" card is stupid. Customers don't have to know how to create games, they are paying for the product and deserve a full right to complain. We can't appreciate the game for the amount of resources and workforce put into it, if it doesn't satisfy us in the end. I'm not saying that some people aren't acting like they are entitled, but it always comes down to the most of the customers' satisfaction with the product they paid for.
I agree about this point, since it's TWD, and people die unexpectedly, unless given "Plot armor". I disagree, however, with: the notion of VAs leaving/getting fired, because they most likely sign contracts with Telltale, which means they can't leave prior to that, unless something serious happens. The other point is not blaming Telltale. Who is there to blame for the deaths of those characters, if not the writers, who killed them off? And I wouldn't mind if their deaths were meaningful, or at least memorable enough, but no, they weren't. Not for Nick, not for Sarita, not for Sarah.
Choice don't matter, never did. Not in Season 1, nor here. You save Ben? He'll die anyway. Ben lives or dies? Doesn't matter, Kenny disappears. You tell Clem to find Kenny, or just find a new group? She ends up with Christa and Omid. As for Season 2: You save Pete? He dies anyway. You save Nick in Episode 2? He has no major part to play in Episode 3 and dies in Episode 4 (in other words, dies anyway). You save Sarah? She dies later, in the same episode. If you still think choices matter, feel free, I won't take more of my time trying to prove it otherwise.
"Your fault"? Are you fucking serious? People may feel entitled, but it's their right to complain, because, gee, they're Telltale's customers, for crying out loud. If we didn't post about every error they make, or at least we think they make, they would've gone downwind fast, but they're still at the top of what they're doing. Don't blame people for complaining over the stuff, because they have every right to do so.
The last two bits are just golden. "Shut the fuck up"? A nice way to sum your point up. "If you agree with this none of this is directed to you"? So, it's only not directed when they agree? What if people don't complain and they actually disagree with you? Have you thought of that?
I won't keep you any longer, Fifth Fleet out.
ok say you found the cure for cancer and put in a vaccine,but people wouldnt take it cause it looked funny? how would you feel after so long at finding it
Thank you.
Okay, I do wanna point out, yes I have criticized Telltale before. But I don't hate Telltale or say "shame on you, or this episode sucks donkey balls." There's just some things I wish they did a little better. The Walking Dead has its issues, but what game doesn't. It's called constructive criticism. Even some of the great movies out there like The Godfather or Citizen Kane have been criticized. Now, I love the Walking Dead. It's my all-time favorite video game. But that doesn't mean there's some things I don't like about it.
I can see where you're coming from, but in my opinion you really need to calm down.
This is a stupid analogy.
This is a stupid analogy.
You...what...mate?
Even if you bring good points, I unfortunately can't agree with you.
Contrary to this season, every characters's deaths in season 1 ( Carley,Ben,Lee, etc.) had a meaning, even if they were brutally killed, sudden of off-screen. Those characters fulfilled their purposes and their deaths, which were sad, were also acceptable since they did what they were supposed too.
Season 2, well... you know, characters die left and right... and for what? Realism? Emotion (that everybody seems to lack lately)? To promote the ''survival at it's fittest''? Because right now, almost no character's death had a ''useful'' meaning.
But hey, if you're enjoying the episode well it's great and I almost want to be at your place! In fact, it's more of our problem for not liking it
yaass baby tell them. this post completes my life.
response to each number:
1.no they dont have to know how to create one,but they should take in consideration of how difficult it is to make one.if you have no idea how it works dont act like you do
2.i know about the contracts,i just want people to think that a possible reason for the death of a character was for the possible absence of the VA.
3.it is true that SOME choices dont matter,but the other threads were refering to ALL choices.and as amatter of fact who cares,theres still an interesting story to be apart apparently thats not good enough.
4.YES im fucking serious,i dont care if their entitled to their opinion.cause their opinion is stupid beyond all reason.yes we should inform them of MAJOR errors that causes the game to malfunction,these "opinions"dont help us or tell tale in any way.
maybe if people would just shut the fuck up and play the damn game,there wouldnt be so manny fucking problems
but do you see my point? if you worked really hard on something and people hated it for stupid reasons wouldnt you be angry
I haven't seen even one point where people go all like "Their games are so bad! I bet I could make one instead! They can't be to hard, right?". Yes, they are difficult to make, but you seem to be manufacturing this accusation from nothing.
No, it's always decided by the writers. The only instance of a character dying because of VA/actor is when actor gets ill or even dies.
"Who cares"? Didn't you state in your original post "My choices did nothing but impact my story"? If so, this "Who cares?" remark is plain strange. Yes, the story is good, but the choices don't matter, which kind of ruins the experience, but I've come to terms with it back when Season 1 was still rolling.
I agree that some of the opinions may be stupid, but most of them aren't, they are completely intelligent, logical and reasonable. Every bit helps Telltale. Just because you don't like/need these opinions doesn't mean Telltale doesn't need them.
Maybe you should stop telling people what to do? Telling them to "shut the fuck up" doesn't help any of your points.
I don't see your point at all because its a dumb point.
For educational purposes:
Reading the thread topic ,this is the first thing that comes to mind.
I do agree that the TellTale bashing has to stop.
Yeah, exactly. A couple of users even mentioned that.
EDIT: This post was referring to the original statement, which is the part before "I do agree that the Telltale bashing has to stop", but the post was edited. Just to clarify.
You know what, OP? It's bad that you brought these points to defend Telltale, because they can be easily disproved, but it's not the worst part. The worst part is you backing out from your own argument. Stick with it, for fuck's sake. Even if your points are wrong, it would still be better if you kept to it, instead of backing out because you got criticized.
daaaaaaaanggg girl chill. I'm lonely right now and it's 1 am. visit me lets hang girl we can eat junk food all night and gossip or play twd.
No.
you know what,you people amaze me.you would tell me not to criticize people. yet you are doing it right now,all i wanted to say is that telltale worked hard just to hear bullshit.is that too much to ask?i mean what are you going to do when they stop making this game before they finish it?who you gonna blame then?all i was trying to do is help the game.help telltale,and that is a fucking crime to you people.and for the record i havent backed out of shit,i thought that would slap some sense into some of you,i guess not.
Should this thread title be changed to "Leave me alone"?
I was only refuting your points, I never told you not to criticize people, only that they have every right to complain. Telltale did work hard, no one's questioning that, and they did good. However, that doesn't mean we should magically stop complaining about their work, if there is something to complain about. They won't stop making the game before they finish it. Every one of their games had attracted at least some criticism, but none of them were laid off because of it. As for helping the game or helping Telltale, maybe you were trying to do the latter, but from my point of view, you were just trying to tell the people who complained about stuff to "shut the fuck up".
You haven't "slapped some sense" by adding something like your last paragraph. Sounds more like an angry attempt to mock people, but it still doesn't work.
LEAVE TELLTALE ALONE!!! LEAVE HER ALONE GODDAMIT!
Everybody can thank apologists like the OP for the pile of shit that Season 2 has ultimately become.
Keep on trucking dumbass
It's good that you think TT is awesome but you should let people give their opinions.
I always see it like this: we are the consumer, they are the producer. They're in control, not us, and there's nothing we can do about it, but either wait, do it ourselves, or move on to something else. And since I can't afford to do it myself, and I really want to know what happens to Clem, I guess I'll just have to wait.
thanks bae.
That's a real defeatist attitude. Okay so Hitler is invading countries, killing thousands and wanting to take over the world. But there is nothing we can do about it, so we will wait and see what happens. Move on to something else eh.
It's a bloody good job others didn't take that sort of attitude, otherwise where would we be now. I know it's just a game we're talking about, but the principle is the same. If I don't like something, be it a game, film or book then I will say I don't like it. We are the consumer, we have a right to complain if we think our complaints are genuine. After all, it's us that put tell-tale where they are now. It's us that pay their wages, buying their games.
Now, I love The Walking Dead game. I think it's far superior to the TV series, but Season Two could have been so much better with a little more thought and creativity, the same sort of creativity they showed for Season One, it would have been.
Hopefully Episode Five will undo some of the damage and be a stunning success. If it is, I will be one of the first to say so. Thing is, it maybe too little too late for some fans.
In my opinion is complaining good, just think about it if we don't complain TTG probably makes the same mistake the next time to and they lose the customers and that means no money.
