I pity because you weren't able to get the maximum fun out of the composition of such elements mainly because of your distinct view. All about empathy, I wouldn't really like to see it in your eyes, that is why I used that word.

Rocky Raccoon by the Beatles isn't straight up funny, but it is a style parody of rambling American tall tales and the anti-heroes that populate them. Likewise, there were moments in Sam & Max that transcended the black-and-white of it has to be either funny or serious. Setting mood is another goal for writers to achieve. There are films that are neither dramas nor comedies, we call them noir. Certainly you'll allow Telltale to create a few scenes that fall into this category.
