Batman, a TellTale games series

One thing I noticed that, even with it being the kind of game it is, I felt like I had more control in playing Batman the way I wanted to than I had in even the Arkham games.

And it made me realise just how badly I've been missing out on being able to play a superhero RPG.

Yeah I know exactly what you mean. Like for example,

Spoiler:
when you go at Falcone and see how much security he has, you set up a plan of action to take them out because of how many their are. Or how even though Batman wouldn't do it, you can choose to just let Catwoman fall, or be as ruthless as the game allows.

It's a degree of freedom gained from TellTale being the kind of company it is, where it's not just a Beat-em up with gadgets and great visuals.

👆 Exactly. It felt like I was Batman, in a sense. Like my actions drove the story rather than being a part of it.

At the end, did you have any decisions that only a minority of people did? I had a couple.

Yeah. Everything you do as Bruce or Batman has a cause/effect, and reactions by the people around you and the environment. It changes based on what you do, just like Gotham actually would based on how the 2 most influential figures in it(who just so happen to be the same guy) react.

I think I had a couple. But a lot of percentages weren't where I thought they'd be.

Same. It'll be interesting to see what choices we get in the second one, though I am unashamed to admit I totally want to

Spoiler:
bang Selina

thanks you two

. That better be an option.

Spoiler:
Hahaha you're not the only one. Knowing TT, it'll be an option, but it'll be at the cost of Harvey's friendship. Or you might be able to get lucky and get it on without him finding out because you two are two of the best sneaky people in the city.

anyway.

Hope you enjoy it.

You know what, that fact completely skipped my mind. He's so d*amn charismatic. I wonder if

Spoiler:
you're gonna get to scrap it out with him before he becomes Two-Face, or if you're somehow responsible. Or even what all happens with Penguin.

They've set up a great premise.

No spoilers needed, but what's your gear color? I went for Purple.

They have indeed.

I went with blue, as I wanted the classic colour, but I can see myself trying others in other playthroughs obviously.

Anyone played episode 2 yet?

We talking "Walking Dead" changes, where actions have minimal impact beyond "Kenny doesn't like me anymore because I didn't back him that one time out of the dozen times I did".

Aye. As much as I grew to like Kenny's character, that always got annoying.

Forgot to post about it earlier, but did end up getting this game with the good enough things I heard about it here and places. For a TellTale title, the gameplay is definitely more involving than I thought, between the detective work and setting up attack points in stealth scenarios, and so far the choices you make seem to actually matter. Thank you, why couldn't I have had that in WD Michonne? This is a nice fresh departure from the Arkham franchise as well, which had eventually suffered in parts from the AAA series kind of effect.

Didn't know episode 2 was out. Thanks for the heads up; downloading it now.

It only came out this week, so you're not far behind.

There's a choice in episode 2... Damn.

The Fables one was a marked improvement over WD (And yeah, Kenny was awesome no matter how much he held a grudge 😉 )

It was kind of funny picking the pacifist choices and Dee losing his mind with fear anyways, like the writers didn't really expect anyone to pass up a chance to play bad cop.

End of the game even gives you a "What the HELL is wrong with you, son" ending from Snow and all his friends. 🙂

Batman is my first real telltale game, but after this I may go back and play the others. I'm pretty impressed.

Episode 3 out now. Was good, and they're doing a really solid job with those cliffhangers imo.

This will probably another Christmas sale purchase and playthrough during the holidays like every other TellTale game I have played!

Dude, you should try Walking Dead Season 1, it's exceptional. Also Wolf Among Us is great.

After the other episodes are out, I might actually replay this to save Harvey instead of Selina, just to see how the rest of the story goes.

My brother played TWD and keeps at me to get it. It's on sale on steam too right now...
