Disapointed With Bigby's look.
Anyone els hate the werewolf look theme bigby has in the cutscenes?
Its like a revamp from those old werewolf 1960's movies.
I always thought bigby was a "wolf" even the comics (tho drawn by several artist) he was always very "big" and very "bad" WOLF, not this...

Might as well change the title to "the werewolf among us.

While he was a wolf originally, technically Bigby is a werewolf. He also has various intermediate forms between human and giant wolf, one of which is the wolfman-looking form that Telltale have gone for. That form was always a throwback to the kinds of movies you mentioned.
It would be nice to see Bigby's true form during TWAU, but I'm not holding my breath. He's so big that they'd need at the very least a wide open area for him to move around in, and his freedoms would be limited.That's not really Telltale's thing.
Are you talking abou Bigby's look on episode 3 scene?If that's so I'd say that he isn't in his full form.Maybe he looks like a werewolf in his 3/4 form but I think he'll look like a big bad wolf in his 4/4(completely) form that i think that will be revealed in ep 5.I now want to describe what I imagined in his full form:"his claws,height and his weight will get bigger.His fur will will be more black and won't be able to controll himself in that form."
That's what I imagined abou his form and by the way:that's just my opinion.Sorry if ou about the wrong subject,but that's what I understood.
TWAU can't handle the badassery that is Bigby in his true wolf form.
He has at least 3 wolf forms that I know of : The Giant Wolf, the Werewolf [looks more like a wolf than a man] , and the Ugly Man-Wolf Which Looks More Like A Hairy Orc, which was the one TTG chose, unfortunately.
Maybe we'll see his other forms in the future. I sure hope so.
I have no issue abouth him being a wolfman in certain scenarios, but when its hinted on several cutscenes when frog says if is this how you actual look I was kinda disaponted.
And in term of size is kinda moot when those scenes only involves combat, like the barfight for example being a huge wouldnt realy be hard for teltale to make.
If I was to imagine a perfect final shot for the season it would be Bigby in his pure wolf form, running off into the night.
Buckingham is awesome, but Gene Ha's brief arc had some amazing art.
He's not really in full wolf form then.He kinda has these stages of transformation.I'm not complaining about Bigby's looks,i mean DAYUM!!!Dat face dat beard dat hair BOOM.And no,i don't really find that 2/4 stage weird.I like Bigby's design.
how many stages does this guy have? 1. BIGBY 2.ANGREY BIGBY 3.WAREWOLF. he can transform more?
I like his werewolf look
I like the full wolf form more.
Link is 403. And I kind of agree, but what I'm hoping is that what Telltale is showing us is his "halfway" form, the in-between hybrid of human and wolf, and that when he is shrugging off his glamour completely, he reveals his real form to be an 8ft tall, four-legged, feral wolf. After all, we've got 3 more episodes to go.
I am sure that Telltale didn't reinvent the character and make him not be able to become a full wolf. It is certainly an intermediary form, without question. By the way, Bigby doesn't use a glamour. He is actually able to take human form. Part of the powers he got from his father.
I like the new look
I think TTG chose that because he's holding his wolf side back. I don't know what's going on in the comics, but in the prequel it's clear that if he's holding his wolf side back a bit, he either still cares about the glamour politics or the glamour politics are much more important or observed than they are in the comics. Personally I don't mind the "what my wife would look like if she was a man" look(joke!), because every time I see it, I get the feeling that he's containing his true form and power, and knowing that still makes it look badass to me.
By the way, HOLYSHITTHATSABIGWOLF!
Don't werewolfs only change at night?
Bigby can change whenever he likes.
Bigby isn't a werewolf. He is a wolf who can assume human form, not the contrary. The real Bigby is Wolf bigby, and can trasform in various degrees of transformation between wolf and human
His look disappoints me. He looks like an orc that forgot to shave. I was honestly hoping he'd look more like this:
At least then he looks like he could actually bite someone! Human jaws aren't good for biting. Lack's a wolf's mane. And a few other things.
EDIT: I don't even think Bigby has a tail.
Heck, this looks closer to Bigby:
He's basically a gorilla with pants on.
Does anybody remember when Bigby was looking through the book in episode 1 and you can clearly see that Bigby is a giant Wolf in that book. I'm sure we might see more of him in that form in the future. Till then I think that Bigby's werelike form is pretty badass.
I find the new form featured in the Episode 3 trailer to be a step in the right direction towards his final, animal form. The hair is now darker, and he looks more primal than the previous form...which resembled a stylishly hairy man with claws and fangs.
Small steps. Progression.
Unfortunately the model in-game looks extremely derpy. I don't think it would've been so bad if the nose was different. I can never take that roar at the end of the next-time trailer seriously.
He is infected with lycanthropy, so he is a werewolf. Technically.
Not infected. He was born by a magic wolf and a personification of the north wind. If else, he's a werehuman, or simply a shapeshifter
Snow White offered to infect him with a lycanthropy-stained knife when he first came to the new world. His shapeshifting powers are stunted, or at the very least, dormant. The curse of lycanthropy is what allowed him to attain human form.
The game takes place in the middle of New York, in small rooms and on open streets in broad daylight. Bigby's full wolf form is cool, yes, but it'd be ridiculous and utterly implausible for him to assume it inside the Trip Trap or in a tiny alley outside a brothel just to teach Gren and the Tweedles a lesson or two. He's not a showoff. I'm not so sure about the scrap in the junkyard, but otherwise I agree with Telltale's take on this, even if the wolf-man model looks a little funny.
And yes, Bigby is a wolf demigod who swore a magical oath to grow big and strong, purposefully neglected his innate shape-shifting abilities to spite his father and was therefore forced to let himself infect with lycanthropy to be able to transform into human form and live in Fabletown. That said, Telltale has severely nerfed his sense of smell, his connection to Snow White and his strength of character to accommodate the detective plot and plot twists so far, and make him a more approachable protagonist in the game, and probably to shoe-horn in a little angst. It's not unthinkable that they're going to make changes to his backstory too.
Maybe TTG wants him to hold his true form back because he cant control it.
They both look epic.
What are some of you people even talking about? Bigby has multiple wolf forms....even in the comics.
We might see his Wolf form at the earliest in episode 5 or at the latest in season 2, if there ever is a season 2 that is. My money is on episode 5, because we can see that he is outside the city and he could transform without the mundies suspecting anything.
And here you can see his Wolf form in the Book of Fables
So Telltale does acknowledge his true Wolf form, at least in the Book of Fables. There's also a full moon in episode 5 so that's the best chance of seeing Bigby in his Wolf form. I really want to see his Wolf form in-game as well but it's up to Telltale. And I don't see anyone who doesn't want to see his Wolf form anyway so why not? So, come on Telltale, we believe in you! You can do it!
I don't think that was his full form, but probably close to it.
I hope it's not his final form because I expected him to be some ROOOOAAAAAAR, and anticipated his look as an exact wolf.
It's not, trust the people who read the comics.
Disagree with OP. He looks badass in Ep 3.
He probably hasn't reached 9000 yet.
This isn't even his final form
You're both kinda right. Bigby is born from a Magical wolf and the North Wind, but for him to enter the mundane world he had to be able to appear human. Because he did not want to use the powers he inherited from the North Wind, he never were able to transform by himself. The cursed blade helped his natural powers of transformation to work in the way of an Animagus from Harry Potter. He can change between the forms as he like. The werewolf form is just a stage in between man and wolf.
Being that the wolf is his natural form, he can control himself. I think it more likely because he is so big, if they let him change at all, he will take a lot of animating and if they do it will be in the last episode as a cu de gra.
