NS: Details on the Telltale Batman game

[lucean]

Since I posted the game announcement, I thought to also post some of the first details about the up-coming Batman episodic adventure game. Especially since they just left me even more hyped for the game.

All the detals are here: https://www.telltalegames.com/blog/105073/first-details-on-telltale-s-batman-series-discussed-at-sxsw

What I found interesting was the central concept of approaching the problems and characters either as Bruce Wayne or Batman, which I think can provide a really interesting character examination.

I really like Telltale's stuff.

I think they work best with characters off the beaten path -- Clementine, Kenny and Lee from 'The Walking Dead' for example -- as opposed to having them be or interact with major characters from the property though. But it should be interesting to see how much of a dick you can make Batman here.

Telltale is sort of hit&miss for me. I find that, in general, their stories tend to be too depressing for my taste (everybody betrays you! lots of people die! everybody betrays you! darkness and pain! and have I mentioned that you'll be betrayed all the freaking time?). But, if there is a character that could work well with their approach, that character is Batman. So I'm looking forward to this :)
