DylanC Posted September 22, 2018 Posted September 22, 2018 The developer that's famous for its narrative-driven episodic games has closed its doors. https://www.vgr.com/telltale-games-hit-with-massive-layoffs-and-closure/ Crazy, right?

With respect, I don't think it was their lack of talent that got them closed down. It's more the fact that today's gaming industry is a broken mess business-wise. I think TT taking on too many projects may've been an issue, as well.

skyfire Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 They released some of the good games in the market. Though it was kind of obvious that the type of the games that they played it may not work out for the gaming company. It's shame that some of the genres don't make much money in the gaming industry despite having good concepts.
