Telltale Games

Inder · 02/20/2011, 03:32 am

Ohh how I would love to see TT do a Space quest game, loved the series(except maybe the last game)

Even though its not tell tale's usual genre, it would be interesting to see them take a stab at making a Phantasmagoria game. I loved the first one, but the second one was bad. At least with a series like that it might be easier since they don't have twenty years of continuity to deal with like other sierra titles.

An FMV Phantasmagoria instalment from Telltale complete with episodic cliffhangers. I would buy it.

They are both quite different and I liked them both at least I liked the second one up to a certain point where the puzzles really got unintuitive. (if you played the game you might know what I am referring to)
There is a great Let's Play by The Spoony One for this game on his website. --> start at the bottom with hour 1 of course!

Both games start quite slowly but I like the feel of the second game a lot more. The horror starts out more subtle and half of the game you just wonder if Curtis is nuts of if what he sees is real.

The first game was clearly fantasy from the first second at least I had the impression because of the talking skull on the bottom of the screen.

I would actually like to see a horror themed game by Telltale. That could be quite interesting.

Also Telltale please make LSL 4.

Murray?

Similarly portentous, too.

Definatly want Quest for Glory and Space Quest. On a side note, has anyone noticed that the KQ forums have more threads than the three other new game forums combined?

I wouldn't have expected anything else tbh. Never heard of the other licenses.

GuybrushWilco · 02/20/2011, 07:44 am

Beyond King's Quest, I'd most like to see a new Space Quest game. Hey, maybe if KQ does well enough, a new SQ is a possibility

.

Simo Sakari Aaltonen · 02/20/2011, 08:25 am

I agree with everyone who has said they need Scott Murphy for that!

NO.

I wouldn't mind seeing some new Police Quest games or even Leisure Suit Larry (but only if you get Al Lowe involved!).

Al Lowe told me personally in an email a while back that there is no way he is coming out of retirement..... But I wonder if he would take a limited roll and add some jokes or plot ideas over the phone or something.... But sadly Larry is no longer owned by the same company that the other Sierra games are owned by.

Quest for Glory seems like it could take Telltale in some awesome new directions. Episodic would mean you could carry your custom character through 5 parts, and they could even set up different endings depending on choices you made all through the series. Plus clunky RPG combat!

Datadog · 02/20/2011, 08:54 pm

Leisure Suit Larry and Space Quest seem best-suited towards Telltale's comedic style. Gabriel Knight would also work great if they wanted to do something more serious.

LSL might be a more risque venture for TT, but I feel that's a series that can stand on it's own legs without all the gratuitous sex and nudity. It's a comedy about a 40 year-old bachelor chasing girls and going on exotic vacations - and even though the male lead was sleazy, the series always had charm. Even women enjoyed the games. Build a series around that instead of turning it into another disgusting porn fantasy for men like MCL and BOB.

Another cool idea: continue the Torin's Passage series. Al Lowe already has a five-game story arc ready for it.

*Irishmile* · 02/20/2011, 09:00 pm

i do not think larry was sleazy just hopelessly out of style and desperate.

Sledgy · 02/20/2011, 10:22 pm

God, I hope for Space Quest!

Gah, the idea of a GK game without Jane Jensen working on it makes me grimace, especially after GK3's ending.

BobFM · 02/23/2011, 12:29 am

"Winnie the Pooh in the Hundred Acre Wood"

...It's the first adventure game I ever played, OK?!

But seriously. Space Quest.

She's freelance at the moment. There's no doubt TellTale would approach her, that's how they roll.

I should certainly hope so.

It's not perfect yet though, it only moves forward in time and it's a bit slow. You have to be in it for one second for every second you want to go into the future.
