  • The community is turning into Gollum at this point. Wait for official confirmation of everything whilst being aware of any more official suggestions from credible sources and you should be fine... relatively speaking.

  • We already knew this, doesn't mean TFS won't be suspended indefinitely.

  • All this means is TTG still exists as a company. It does not automatically mean anything good for TFS. TTG has a contractual obligation to Netflix to convert MCSM into a Netflix format. That is very likely the only reason the doors are still technically open at all. In all likelihood, once their obligations to Netflix have been fulfilled everyone still working at TellTale will also be laid off and the doors will officially shut.

  • There's being hopeful and then there is being delusional.

    Even if the company doesn't shut down they have 25 employees left, and let's face it they are likely looking for another job as we speak, and who would Telltale hire when their troubles are so well publicised?

  • Most transactions aren't of a "pay first, get your product later" nature, for this very reason. The gaming industry has so fully embraced this preorder system that people do it without thinking, and most of the time it's fine because even if a company delivers a shitty product, they delivered a product and people are stuck with it.

  • And firing 250 people on the spot to prevent bankruptcy is legal over there? Again I ask, how the fuck does anyone do business in America?
