If the game is a success, which I hope it is because it's awesome, what are the chances of getting another season?

I seriously don't want it to end, the first episode was a blast I only wish it was longer.

So who would like to see a season 2?


Mod edit: I've merged threads concerning recent comments about a possible Season 2 into this one, beginning from page 2; I also changed the thread title to reflect this.

A tad early for this poll isn't it? After all we have 4 more episodes to go. However just based off Episode 1 I want season after season assuming they keep the quality of this episode in the others.

this.

if - and i point out IF here - they manage to keep the high quality of dramaturgy, character credibility and most of all the authenticity (!) i am glad that i buyed all 5 episodes by one.

after the last episode is released i'll add my vote here, till then i just hope that the other 4 episodes will continue on that level.

There has been no date set for episode 2 yet. Although Telltale does usually get them out monthly. They do occasionally skip a month here and there. With BTTF for example there was a couple times they skipped a month.

As much as I like what Telltale attempts with "TWD", and as much as I'd never begrudge the fans of the franchise a second Season, I'm voting "nope" on this one. The question of course implies ASAP, and that would be a wrong move for TTG in my opinion. I don't want a 2013 Season for TWD.

When Kirkman finishes the comic series, they could well think of another Season to commemorate the occasion. 2015 or 2016, that would be nice also. In the meantime, Telltale has King's Quest and Fables to finish, another Sam & Max Season to deliver and to pick up franchises not yet expected by anyone.

Since XBLA will NEVER get Sam and Max Season 3, and probably never get any other TTG series I kinda have to go with More Seasons

Here's the thing though

After Careful Consideration {and this is just my opinion} I think The Walking Dead Game needs 7 Seasons each with a diffrent cast and protagonist. In fact if I was involved in Telltale I would have Melissa Hutchinson record some dialogue for clementine like this

The Protagonist of Season 2 is on a ham radio
Pro: Hello is anyone there?
Clem: Yes i'm here.
Pro: Who are you?
Clem: My names Clementine.
Pro: Where are you?
Clem: {The location she was last seen in episode 5} Where are you?
Pro: Oh that's pretty far i'm in {wherever this episode takes place] I guess sending Help is out of the question.
Clem: Let me ask
{If lees alive no matter what at season 1's end he can come on if not then whoever is and give advice on where to go for help leading into the next episode}



Oh and in season 2 The protagonist rigs up an explosion or snipers some walkers long distance to kill time and in Season 3 that protagonist is saved by the Explosion distracting walkers or the walkers that the Protagonist of season 2 shoots

Plus retail release (in NA at least).

story from:

http://www.theverge.com/gaming/2012/7/6/3141748/telltale-walking-dead-season-two

Telltale will release the first five episodes of its The Walking Dead adventure games in North American retail outlets following the final episode's digital launch, the developer confirmed to Polygon today.

Telltale also confirmed that the five-episode series would not be the only games set in the Walking Dead universe that the studio plans on creating.

"We believe there is no better company than Telltale to bring complex narrative IP to interactive entertainment," senior vice president of marketing Steve Allison said in a statement to Polygon. "Our first episodic game series based on The Walking Dead has sold nearly 1.7 million episodes to consumers in just our first 8 weeks with no signs of slowing down. We have three more episodes to go with Episode 3 targeted for August as we confirmed yesterday.

"Following the digital release of our fifth episode we will also be coming to North American retail shortly thereafter and this will not be the last The Walking Dead game series that we do."

Allison also commented on the Activision-published shooter set in the Walking Dead universe, announced earlier today.

"Regarding today's announcement of a project based [on] the AMC TV series coming in 2013," Allison said, "as huge fans of the franchise and the show, we're looking forward to seeing Terminal Reality's game when it comes out."

Well the lack of a Tales 2 certainly isn't Telltale's fault. I mean there's not much else they can do if LucasArts doesn't want anyone else but them using their licences right now. Maybe that will change in the future but it's not worth holding your breath for.

Bleh.

I mean, I'm loving The Walking Dead so far, and a sequel makes sense given how the game's already made a boatload of money and publicity for Telltale. But if Telltale's going to start digging into sequels, I'd rather we get Sam and Max Season 4. Or Strong Bad Season 2 (Shut up and let me dream! :( ).

Besides, announcing a sequel when the first game's not even finished reeks of a...hasty decision. I just hope we at least get King's Quest before The Walking Dead 2.

I would seriously doubt that a 2nd season would be out before Fables & Kings Quest are out. I also wouldn't be surprised to see a season 4 of Sam & Max before this too. My thinking is that it'll be at least 2 years from now that it would be released.

The_Ripper
07/06/2012, 12:40 pm
Hey, people, Telltale don't say anything about making the second season JUST AFTER finish the first and which other games they are thinking to develop.

However this are good news.

07/06/2012, 12:43 pm
It will probably take a bit of time for that, so fear not.

Then again, they could wish to capitalize on the success and move directly into the next season. >.>

Either way, tis good news, and I'm curious as to who the next game would feature.

If it doesn't continue Lee and Clems story I wouldn't be interested. Just like I wouldn't be interested in The Walking Dead comic/TV show if Rick was killed off.

I don't know if they would be able to create a new set a characters that would compare to Lee and Clem.

07/06/2012, 01:43 pm

If they continue Lee and Clems story most everyone else will be dead or gone off on their own.

And the story really is pretty linear. Most of your choices lead to the same outcome with slight variations. The biggest thing your decisions do is whether people are mad at you or not.

Cannons would probably work the same way they did before the zombie outbreak. You load the gunpowder, put in the cannonball, and light the fuse. :p

Anyway, without getting anal over typos, there are three ways Telltale could solve the issue of connecting Season 2 to Season 1.

1. Focus on someone completely new and ignore Lee's story entirely.

2. Only reference general events, or phrase things in a way so that they're true regardless of choice (e.g.: "Remember when Kenny killed Larry?"). While your choices cause some minor variations, the basic story is always the same.

3. Figure out a way for Season 2 to remember your Season 1 save file. Wouldn't be the first time something like that happened.


Six seasons and a movie!

But seriously, Monkey Island first.

I know it's not easy to hear, but I think it's time to forget about Monkey Island. LucasArts clearly has no interest in letting it (or any of their other adventure IPs) see the light of day ever again. Really, just be thankful Tales happened, because even that much was something of a miracle. :(

Zeruis
07/06/2012, 03:36 pm
I see season 2 following the adventures of Lee and Clem as the only survivors. We know Lilly will be Woodbury-bound, and Doug/Carley will only likely survive if TT releases season 2 with ports that follow your choices from season 1.

If it does feature Clem, I hope it is set in the future, and you get to play as an older version of her, with her character having been directly influenced by the choices you made by Lee in the first game.

But if wishes were horses, beggars would ride.

I see where you're going with this. But in the Walking Dead universe, only around 15 months have passed in the comics(correct me if I'm wrong). Future events would be immoral. The thing that drives the survivors is that help will soon come. Skipping a few years would take the idea of hope out of their heads.

Yeah, I get where it wouldn't really be "Walking Dead" anymore. However, I don't think that there will be much to continue with (at least) Lee's story once we are done with this season. The only way I can see our decisions make any sort of impact on a future story, would then be to show us through Clementine how Lee impacted her life.

From a gaming standpoint, it's going to get really old, really fast to have Lee turn into "Rick 2.0". I would hope that they would use the games to show us a VARIETY of different hardships that people around the world are going through, not just a few people.

At the same time though, it will get very old very fast to see another group of people go through the exact same shock/discoveries of the zombie apocalypse.

Telltale really are going to need to work their magic if they want this series to stay fresh even with new people.

See, that's another problem. I know the whole point to The Walking Dead is to be "the zombie movie that never ends," but you can only make horrible shit happen to Rick and pals for so long until things get stale.

Telltale's managed to make things fresh again with the addition of interactivity, but if it goes on for long enough even that would get old. I'm not sure if I could take two seasons of The Walking Dead.

Then again, assuming that there are only 5 episodes in the presumed Lee/Clem story, I feel that this should go along with Kirkman's idea that things are supposed to continue. It would be interesting for Lee and Clem to go through as many hardships as Rick's group have.

The only thing I am going to have to say about a season 2, while I know it may be harder or possibly even take longer to create. Id like choices to have a real effect on the game and story. While choosing who to save in episode 1 leads to new choices in two, regardless those are just "side events" from the main line.

Regardless, you end up at the same destination. Now maybe its a choice that is still possible, but Id like to for example really take Kenny up on his offer and leave the group and the next 3 episodes you meet new people or even spend the next one trying to return back to the group, where if you chose not to go you spend that episode taking on a new set of challenges.

....Basically like those "Choose your own path" books with the "choice A: Page 34, Choice B: Page 65"

Zeruis
07/06/2012, 10:47 pm
I'm seriously getting confused. Is there going to be a "season 2" continuing Lee and Clem's life, or is there going to be a "new series" introducing new survivors?

But..hey, does it mean that we will not have a proper finale for Season 1, just another cliffhanger saying "to be continued on season 2"? I really hope not. I hate games ending on cliffhangers.
I hope we will not have another ending like Tales of Monkey Island...

I like the idea of a new protagonist with Lee as a cameo that can be fit in at different points depending on what your save contains from S1. Depending on when it happens, he could be a survivor of a crashed fishing boat or a survivor of Woodbury's crushing defeat.

Is Telltale pushing for it?

On topic: I would love a second season of the Walking Dead, but I agree with what's been stated here earlier. We would need a new take on it. To follow yet another group going through this wouldn't feel fresh anymore. I'd probably still play it, though.

When Kirkman finishes the comic series, they could well think of another Season to commemorate the occasion. 2015 or 2016, that would be nice also. In the meantime, Telltale has King's Quest and Fables to finish, another Sam & Max Season to deliver and to pick up franchises not yet expected by anyone.

He has no plans on wrapping it up anytime soon; and its been ongoing since 2004. Most likely TTG will make the decision based on sales of Season 1, which I hear is doing rather well.

But I wouldnt like another episodic game- the suspense is too much between Eps. If they were released a solid 3-4 weeks apart, that would be ok

How about Season 2 is starts off with a new set of people; but the timeline begins at the end of Season 1. The new pack has to deal with the world in full blown ZA, at the end of their Ep5 they land in Lee's camp where he is now a veteran zombie killer/ strategist. And you get to see whoever made if from Season 1 in there...or something like that. Its the old and the new combined

That would be nice - basically we leave Lee and Clementine realizing that whatever hope we have for an end to the "apocalypse" is a long way off (even if it is still there), but we get to pick up season 2 with a new group of survivors, having been shaped by their own experiences of survival. I would really like a new setting for it, though.

Ah it's called the pox and we did that three years ago!

LeChuck caused the zombie outbreak.

This is now canon.

With the compilation of season 1 coming out in retail(which will likely be reserved for the more patient of us), I'm getting the feeling that this "season 2" will branch off the events of season 1. Anyone else?

I think Season one should be referred too but not actively see. I dont know much about Woodbury so pardon me if i'm wrong in mentally imagining it to be like the Camp in Falling skies Except with walkers instead of skitter threats. or maybe the city in land of the dead. But dog eat dog. The Protagonist of the next episode is there and meets up with Newcomer Lily and she talks a bit about herself to them possibly a female protagonist she's more likely to open up to since males caused her so much trouble. and so we learn bits about season one then the protagonist is kicked out of woodbury and so the adventure starts

Good theory, except Woodbury is WAY more brutal. After Lilly's behaviors in recent episodes, she would be right at home.

I am excited! Only 2 episodes in, and The Walking Dead: The Game has sold over 1.7 million copies! I can only assume that these sales records and the overall positive feedback and reviews the game has had so far are responsible.

I think everyone does, tbh. Jake from Telltale said that they are working on getting the first season on our way before they focus on the second.

If it does feature Clem, I hope it is set in the future, and you get to play as an older version of her, with her character having been directly influenced by the choices you made by Lee in the first game.

But if wishes were horses, beggars would ride.

Playing as Clementine is an awesome idea. As Clementine has already proven her usefulness and mature understanding as a child, she would be perfect for leading a group as an adult.

Also, this idea would give The Walking Dead franchise a female lead. So having diversity in leaders will keep the franchise fresh and interesting. c: (Currently the television series is lead by Rick, the Activision game is lead by Daryl, the Telltale game is lead by Lee, and though I haven't personally read the comics, it appears the comics are also lead by Rick.)

I don't like the idea of Clementine growing up and leading groups of survivors. The thing that spurs these survivors is that hope will come eventually. Waiting 10-15 years would take the idea of hope and rescue from the survivors. I still like the idea of Lee and Clem returning as the main cast in season 2 though.

I will not say too much on woodsbury(It is massive comic spoilers, and probably the best saga of the entire series), but it was MUCH more brutal, and a place you did NOT want to live! I think it would be much more interesting to see Lilly after the events of woodsbury have happened, as it was left unknown if she lived or not afterword, so it would make a great setting as she is an established game character, and Lilly would have a lot of baggage to deal with after that.

They are led by Rick in the comics. The TV show is just a re-imagining of the comics, meaning they go through the same stuff(so you guys WILL be seeing this woodsbury crisis soon), but minor things are changed, such as who dies and when.

I'm immensely enjoying TTG's TWD and would be thrilled to play seasons 2, 3 etc etc... IMO, The Walking Dead universe has MUCH more room for sequels than any other games I can think of... (eg. Call of Duty, Mass Effect, Assassin's Creed)... :)

If the game is a success, which I hope it is because it's awesome, what are the chances of getting another season?

I seriously don't want it to end, the first episode was a blast I only wish it was longer.

So who would like to see a season 2?


Mod edit: I've merged threads concerning recent comments about a possible Season 2 into this one, beginning from page 2; I also changed the thread title to reflect this.

Yes.... But they should do fucking better work!
Come on! Bethesda sucks IMO but it is better than TTG :mad:

I'm not an old Telltale customer but a fan of "The Walking Dead". The whole experience has been stellar for me since the beginning of the game. I got insanely attached to Clem & her relationship with Lee. Playing the morally gray but still "somewhat paragon" father of her really was a blast! Few times in my life I've grown fond of characters in video games which gave me zillion times the hunger of a flesh-eating zombie for finding out what happens next. If I had to give it a score I'd give it 9.5 out of 10 and I'd call it a "smashing hit". Because purchasing the rights of a keenly followed franchise doesn't mean you can deliver it in style. However, Telltale really nailed the whole thing in my humble opinion. :)

What I'm really wondering right now is, :confused:
As I've seen from other releases in Telltale Games' list, there has been more than one season of games. I realize the first season is not even finished yet and I didn't create this thread to directly ask if there will be a second season. I just came here to say I wish you guys at Telltale made more than one season of this great game, and wanted to thank you for all the efforts you've put into creating this whole experience.

Thank you for reading.

Thank you for reading.

Try Sam and Max for wacky adventures, Back to The Future for a fairly loyal spiritual sequel to the movie, or Tales of Monkey Island for fun character driven adventure.

Unfortunately, nothing else Telltale has done has really followed this tone before, but - as you said - they've nailed it. As Cap said, there's threads for this, so check those out to see more mass guessing for season 2.

To put this on a different topic than "season 2?", have you played both episodes? What were your decisions?
