Would You Be Upset If The Final Season's Art Style Changed Again?
I'm sure we know how people in the TTG forums felt about the change in art design in ANF. We've read the comments, seen the memes, and lauded the style of season's 1 and 2. However, next season is a bit different. It's the final season. This is how TTG will finish of the Clementine story arc. This could very were define how TTG's TWD is perceived and remember (for the sake of this post, let's assume The Final Season/Season4 is TTG's last TWD game ever).
With that said, how would you feel if TTG went back to the pervious art style? What if the exclusive look at PAX is TTG showing the art direction of the final season? TTG had a style in S1, refined it in S2, did a few small tweaks in Michonne, and completely changed it in ANF. I'm curious if another switch, this time going backwards, would be accepted. I can see many liking it as it could be a sign of TTG going back to what made their version of TWD "great" (depending on your opinion, of course). Some might meet it with mixed reactions as it would look as if TTG was acting like ANF never happened. Others would love for it to be a sign that ANF never happened. Some may not like the inconsistency and having to adjust to another art style for the final season. Several don't care as long as Clem doesn't have her ANF haircut.
I know there have been comments and maybe threads like this before. If so, merge this. If not, tell me how you feel. Should TTG go back to the old style? Should they stick to the new one? Should they do something in between? What do you want them to change and/or leave be? Will you be mad if Clem's haircut went right back to her pigtails as if nothing happened? What if her hair stayed the same? Will Clem the Chameleon change her skin complexion for the 4th time? (I'm scared to even go down that rabbit hole discussion...)

I loved what they did with Batman : The Enemy Within and i hope they can do something like that (not the same) but similar with the Final Season comic book style not trying to be realistic.
I know a lot of people want to see Clem with her pigtails back again and i know i said before i don't really care but it's the final season so they should do it.And i feel like the haircut Javi gave to Clementine was more of a "joke".
And yes acting like ANF never happened would be great.
Except for Conrad,bring my boi Conrad back in season 4 telltale pls
Yeah, it would be cool if Clementine starts out with that awful haircut and as the season progresses her hair grows out so she ties it up again like before. Or even better they should include a short time skip where her hair has already grown out again so it starts off tied up in her iconic hairstyle.
There are two new walker character models that have been leaked. The art style for the final season is going to be the same as ANF. (Which I am personally fine with) I'm guessing there will be some subtle improvements to textures, animations, and effects.
Really ? Where did you saw that ?
Nevemind i remember now.
Don't see how or why they'd revert backwards to previous animations. I believe they should continue on with the improved animation. The graphics from season 3 were the best and that's about the only thing that game has over it's predecessors.
I wouldn't mind whether they go more toony/inked or more realistic. My only gripe would be whether it's too high-end or too low-end in graphics. The former is too much for my computer, the latter is just another sign of laziness at this point. It'd be neat if they had interchangeable graphics options like they do with the textures.
SHAW ME! PLEASE!
Going back to the previous artstyle would be a blessing. The comic-y, thick outlines artstyle was kind of a trademark already for the series. They hit a sweet spot with Michonne and should've kept everything that way.
ANF couldn't find its place between realistic, comic-y or outright hilariously low res and lazy textured. While some of the walkers literally looked like "walking jokes", you'd look at Javi's bloody freckles and see a texture which took more time to create than what was spent writing the whole thing.
Not to mention that this game was a SEVERE downgrade in atmosphere when compared to S2 no doubt. Put any ANF episode next to Amid The Ruins... Jesus.
Oh and for all that's sacred, please exorcise the demon that now resides in Clem's hair.
I wouldn't consider this a spoiler it is only character models but it is unreleased content so I'm putting the spoiler tag to be safe.
There are two new walker models that have been leaked. Normally I would call leaks like this crap but this person has leaked stuff in the past and has been right before. The models are in ANF's artsyle with a slight improvement in texture detail. There is also leaked concept art of a potential new character. You can find the information here.

i've already send him the link a few hours ago.
Also your link say "this content doesn't exist".
Alright. Ill have to fix that later but I'm too lazy too right now.
Can someone send me the link to the leaked models please and thank ya
I did.
Could I also get that link? Please
Yep.
Im assuming it will be the same as ANF. As much as I think S1 and S2's style looked way better than ANF's, it would just be weird to go back. Same style - Same Style - Oops - Same Style.
Like, they have to commit I guess. It would just feel clunky going Old - New - Back to Old.
They just have to put more effort into it i remember these awful low textures zombies at the end of episode 4 this was awful.
I'll never forget the countless times they used the 2D, 5 FPS background walkers.
I actually didn’t mind the seasons art style. Although I usually don’t mind stuff like that.
me too, please (I'm sorry)
All right then i guess if people are going to keep asking here's the link

Take this with a grain of salt we don't know if these models are gonna be used in the Final Season.
I don't mind the art style, but one thing that I would be okay with disappearing is the more 'cinematic' camera movements and pacing. Hate it... so much. Took me right out of the game.
I personally think the art style for S3 was fine but I think they need to tone it down a bit and make the rain look better and the wet models / surfaces because they all looked like they were dipped in oil.
Nothing in those images appear leaked from season 4 as those are walkers from A New Frontier, the tweets in the images are from July last year and are assets from ANF and where tweeted by Dont_Look_Back and where found in the files by Deltino (as credited for in the images) but it's possible they could reuse them.
The Lilly script was tweeted by Nicki Rapp herself and was first tweeted May 2016.
The guy with the scar face could be from anywhere so at this time i doubt he is from season 4.
Double Post
Yeah i know this is old but people kept asking to see the models so now they know,but i wouldn't take this too seriously.
That could even just be a fan edit.
It is but i can’t seem to find a source with reverse image search, the person who posted the first “leaks” also posted some spoilers before (here) showing a edit of what appears to be Nate from 400 days and a edited image of Negan from Deviantart which looks like it was edited with faceapp to give him a smile.
