There's no rationle for hiring new people when they know the company is going under. Wanting to put all their eggs on the Walking Dead basket is highly irresponsible.

Here is a leaked gif of some early work on their Stranger Things game.
Not much to go on, but aside from the weird bug eyes going on, the whole wandering around the house and art style seem really reminiscent of Life is Strange to me.Last edited by Panfoot; 09-24-2018 at 10:09 AM.

Well it appears "potential partners" are now stepping in to help get the Walking Dead ; The Final Season done. Its early and Telltale can't promise it will happen but it appears talks are underway from folks to help step in and get the series done.

I'm thinking the "some form" is that the people behind it will push that the 2 episodes release together and not do the typical Telltale move they have been doing."The story so far: As usual, Ginger and I are engaged in our quest to find out what the hell is going on and save humanity from my nemesis, some bastard who is presumably responsible." - Sir Digby Chicken Caesar.

So it appears that Telltale is now being taken into court for violating labor laws by the massive layoff with no severance they did.

This is causing drama. A lot of devs are pissed that partners are looking for a way to finish Walking Dead while Telltale isn't providing severance. They are putting finishing the game over paying their former employees. Even when their dead the management is still ****. Originally Posted by SUPERECWFAN1

Telltale requested that the final season of the Walking Dead be pulled from online retailers.

Good news, though I think a lot of fans will be sad if they abandon WAU2 still. Maybe Warner could pick that and Telltale’s Batman up for release.

Yeah I'm think Warners and Skybound likely will keep the engine uses from now on and could make some decent money doing episodes of this for release. Because for both it makes sense in a way. Originally Posted by Derek Metaltron

Exactly, Warner could consider doing what EA has done with EA Originals or the upcoming Dark Pictures series with Supermassive and try using WAU2 and Batman to launch a platform of cheaper fan friendly games utilizing elements of Telltale's choice mechanics to create new stories around franchises they own, not just Batman and Fables but maybe other DC characters or even a Potterverse set game in the future. Meanwhile Skybound could start a new series of Walking Dead games or based on other comic properties they own. Originally Posted by SUPERECWFAN1

Effectively the Dark Knight Rises of the trilogy. You would have two entirely different opening episodes based on that choice (in a similar way to what they did with Vigilante vs Villain Joker in Enemy Within's last episode) which open some months later with Bruce or Batman embracing one half of himself and the benefits that results in whilst in loss of the other. Cue the arrival of two iconic Batman villains re-imagined as with previous seasons... Poison Ivy and Scarecrow. Except, here's the twist... these two are siblings. As love and fear, life and death, Pamela and Jonathan are part of a wider threat which brings Bruce and Batman tragically and inevitably together... something like that, anyway.
