What will make the Final Season better ?
So.. Most of the fan service didn't like ANF and it's poor written story and i always watch ideas about TFS, what do you think will make the Final Season better ? Here's mine opinion :
1. More dramatic story than a poor-written action .
2. Better characters (The Garcia family ?? you have to be kidding me ... )
3. Make choices matter for the whole game .
4. More hilarious dialogs (like Kenny / Lilly in season 1).
5. Slower timeline (Everything in ANF happened so fast that maked the story boring).
6. Better evolving throughout the season (Like s1).
7. Clem's normal haircut / haircut variants . This new hair looks like the jocker from Batman...
8. Old Characters coming back . (for example : Christa).
9. Returning the old Graphics . (I know it's impossible because of the new engine, but the older graphics were better.)
10. Weapons from Season 1 & 2 returning . (I found them better than those new CS - Like weapon skins ).
I can give more ideas but that's enough .
Comments
The way the final game will be better is if they made it identical to the way Season 1 was by having:
• 2 hour+ episodes.
• Plenty of gameplay and areas to explore.
• A lot more hubs and items to pick up and examine.
• Optional side quests like giving candy bars to other people, fixing Carley’s radio or the St John’s swing.
• Puzzles to solve like when you had to start up the train or tamper with the generator in Starved For Help.
• Character interaction and by that i dont mean just one half assed line of dialogue like we mostly got in S3, i mean an in depth conversation with people where we choose to ask them things, things we can optionally learn about them, this then leads to character development, something that Season 3 also ridiculously lacked.
• Choices actually feeling like they matter. By that i dont mean the obvious choices showing, i mean little pieces of unimportant dialogue taking effect. Example i always use, in Season 1 when you first meet Kenny in A New Day, he introduces you to Duck. If Lee chooses the option “Duck?”, Kenny says nothing bothers him like water off a duck’s back. In Long Road Ahead, Kenny mentions Duck was talking about Hershel’s farm, Lee then responds with “what happened to water off a duck’s back?” but this option is not there if Lee did not choose that option in A New Day, this dialogue does not occur.
It’s an unimportant choice that has no relevance to the story but its the little things like this that made Season 1 bloody brilliant. It showed that the writers put so much effort into every little conversation. Not just this one either but the optional convo’s as well.
If the final season brought back any of this (which they won’t) then obviously it will be a shit ton better
Yeah, but S3's choices didn't matter 'cause they'll excuse you no matter what... And for criminy they have to return the old engine otherwise i'll stop with the franchise, even if it's final season for Clem . Also yeah, she looks a lot like dickhead and loner like Jane which maked me deinstall my game..
All I am worried about is that the Episode lengths in The Final Season going to be the same as A New Frontier. If this will be the case, I am done with Telltale. A New Frontier should of been a mini-series.
Yah, I think a focus on optional dialogue paths is where this came could truly shine. I don't give two shits about the story because there's this lack of character material.
Same here. Just like Michonne , but because of that they focus on the Batman game, their other games are getting weak at story . That's the reason i play season 1 all over and all over again even today (right now im at ep4 for the 6th time lol ).
I would've laughed my ass off watching some dialogs like how it was with Kenny and Larry .
Hell yah
Clementine getting pounded and/or dying.
No Angry Dads.
A consistent/cohesive story direction.
Ed and Diana.
Most of what old Man dan listed.
Gonna have to agree with OP's first statement. The thing about season 1 that made a huge impact was buildup in its episodes. Like how the Saint John's Dairy had their deal with the bandits, but it wasn't exactly just shoved right into your face with the fact they were cannibals until late into the episode with the whole discovery of their butcher room. ANF just sorta lacked that suspense with their budget cut saviors new frontier group being way too direct with everything. Here's hoping season 4 can bring back a more subtle, but wild experience.
Yeah, but for me there were and some dumb segments like the Sewers in EP4, Crawford, Sniping the bandits which for me was boring, but that doesn't change the fact . ANF just shoved everything into your face and you didn't even had to try .
Some actual gameplay. I just want a real adventure game like S1, with hubs, a optional character interactions and puzzles etc.
ANF was literally just a movie, and a pretty shit movie at that. Their current formula can work with good writing and some heart. TFTB is very good and Batman is decent, but I just want to see them make an actual game again.
Well, we wish them luck 'cause they work not only on The Walking Dead : The Final Season, They had to announce The Wolf Among Us 2 in 2019.
1 Explosions, lots and plenty
2 Railroaded linear story and gameplay
3 Forced romances
4 Less dialogue choices
5 Generic characters and environments
and remember telltale, no one notices the little things its all about the big picture.
Not doing what The Walking Dead: A New Frontier did.
Please less prestablished relationships. ANF makes you feel like you have to care for Gabe. Shoves Kate at you constatly but tells you she's your brothers wife. In s1 you took control as Lee, this guy who starts making new relationships since the first minute. Also no more romance triangles that you're forced into ffs
Please, don't remind me of Gabe, that piece of shit was so annoying... Most of S1 is what maked the franchise, and for that most of the fan service will want things that were in S1 .

Ugh that bipolar lil shithead Gabe. I got him killed in my playthrough, the game tried to make me feel sad about his death but I could not muster it. Having the waiter getting my order wrong would bother me more than his death
He even deserved death.. He said about Conrad's death in front of Tripp, the little shit eater ! Somehow (i don't know how, i just played normally) in my playthrough i got David alive and Gabe dead. Hope TFS doesn't include S3's story
I feel like getting Gabe killed is the only way to truly win ANF, sure its phyrric victory because you still had to play ANF to get there. You lose points if Clem leans in and tries to steal Gabe's dying breath to make herself stronger.
I think I would've lost my shit if i saw Clem k̶i̶s̶s̶i̶n̶g̶ extracting his spirit to strenghten her in her fight against the apocaliyse in my playthrough. But i was spared so maybe there is a god
Okay, two things:
1. There are people who'd like some callbacks and positive nods to Season 2
2. That's not what Fanservice means/identifies
Okay, Vanilla Ice, my english is horse shit so yeah, and what ?
...Is English a second/later language for you?
That's not a reason for someone to die. Much less a 13yo.
Good lord, these games are glitched up the ass and out the mouth
Yeah, I just realized that and editted my statement. Sorry
Fanservice is when a medium appeals to something it knows that fans or the fanbase likes.
And with this, I see my presence in this thread is better left scarce
I don't replay it because it was so cool, to be without Gabe. Atleast that's my opinion
Everyday's a school day . I know what fanbase is but i don't knew what Fanservice means, sorry 'bout that one.
M.
Btw, that glitch comment is referring to the fact that the only way for David to live is for Javier and Clementine to go after him, while Gabe only gets bitten if they helped save New Richmond.
It's fine. I meant to point it out when I first saw this thread, but honestly forgot.
I wish it works in TFS, so when it's released i can play with it .
...What?
i talk about the glitch
Okay, just making sure.
Wait, so what happened with Kate and the Memorial Wall scene then?
Kate was dead too, and on the Memorial Wall were shown Kate and David photos even thou David was alive
and instead of David's voice, gabe's voice was heard, not sure if this was because i cracked the game, unfortanetly I deinstalled the game 'cause i seed what puke is, i didn't make screenshots or clip either, cause when i played it i didn't knew about Tellltale's website
Goddamn, your game just shit itself inside and out, didn't it?!
"Clem getting pounded"
you okay homie?
Better writing, more explorable areas, good puzzles, difficult and meaningful choices.
Basically just look at Season 1 and go from there like they should have been doing this whole time.
I don't know, maybe that was because i tried to replace Conrad's death animation with Mike's one from S2. (There was this cut choice that you can kill Mike, but there was a mod that returns the choice) There was another bugs like : Pushing the truck in S4 - the first time i tapped Q and the truck dissapeared, i thought maybe it teleported outside but there was no truck, so Clem & Gabe tried to play in the air
Especially on Conrad's death, when i shooted him, the bullet didn't go to his head, but his leg, then he started flying around the map, My game did shit itself. Im glad i deleted it. I Guess trying to replace animation will do that to a game...
Yeeeah, I really stepped in that one, didn't I?
