Telltale Games

The Mystery Cow · 06/26/2010, 04:43 pm

I originally sent this to support, but from what I've read it sounds like there's a lot they have to go through right now, so I thought it might be better to ask here.

What I'd like to know is if I were to buy the Telltale Everything Pack on Steam, would I be able to play them without Steam running? I think for some games you can use the .exe to start it, and it won't log in to Steam, but is there anyone that can confirm this with these games? Me and my cousins are fans, but we can't be logged in the same Steam account at the same time, and we can't afford to buy the pack three times.

Thanks in advance!

I'm pretty sure you can't but don't take my word for it (I'm not really THE Steam expert).

No.

No you need to be logged in to steam for all the episodes.
But have you tried if it works in offline mode?

Thanks for the responses!

I haven't tried it in offline mode yet, but it sounds like that's a way around it. Though I also read that it's against the Signed Agreement.

If I bought the games from this website would more than one person be able to play them simultaneously on different computers? I'm not sure what the Signed Agreement is for Telltale itself.

Yes. I already tested that (I and one of my friend played the same episode with my serial number at the same time).

Awesome. I'll probably do that, unless it goes on the 24hour Summer sale on Steam. Already 50% off for all but S&M Season 3, but I'm waiting until before the end to buy anything not on the 24hour sale.

Um. The Telltale Everything pack on Steam that's currently for $49.99 does include S&M season 3.

Yeah I just realized Devil's Playhouse is Season 3.
