[Bjoern the Smexy]

Looks really good.
Sadly the animation will probably look horribly stiff once again, but I can live with that.
Really looking forward to this game. Even more than TWD S3.

 

[Meesh]

While Batman really isn't my thing, I must say TellTales visual styles are quite attractive so I definitely get the immediate appeal for the game. I always thought they should try a samurai/ninja epic, or perhaps Nintendo should tap them for one of their IPs, or heck even an RPG. Anyways just really dig their work in general

 

[KingdomHeartsFan]

This is the first game using their new engine.

 

[Shauni]

i guess they will put an episode or two on the disc and the rest will be a code. they can't wait.

One episode on disc, the rest automatically downloaded as they come out. Did the same thing with Minecraft: Story Mode.

 

[RedAssedApe]

Hope it's not the Sam old janky animation

 

[Keihart]

They shoul've go with Capullo's batman design, meh

 

[MonsieurNours]

Looks very cool !

 

[Gurish]

An actually good looking Telltale game, I'm shocked.

 

[Playsage]

I like Troy Baker, but now he's Batman? I don't know... I just don't know...

 

[JBwB]

Looking great.

At this point I'm not even surprised that Troy Baker and Laura Bailey are in the main cast. They were both great in TFTB.

 

[Mudd]

Call me interested.

 

[kpaadet]

Do the video game voice acting community only consist of 20 people? Let me guess, Nolan North, Steve Blum and Jennifer Hale are doing additional voices.

 

[MaximumSpider]

My man Troy Baker. Day one.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

This is the first game using their new engine.

I bet it's a new engine in the same was FO4 used a new engine.

 

[Kenzodielocke]

I bet it's a new engine in the same was FO4 used a new engine.

Yep, it is the case here.

 

[MasterMongoose]

I like Troy Baker, but now he's Batman? I don't know... I just don't know...

Hasn't he already been Batman in something? I know he played the Joker and I think that made him the first person to ever play both. I want to say it was like a Lego Batman game or something.

 

[geomon]

I'm in baby! Let's go!

 

[Adnor]

Please, please have the batfamily.

 

[Moon_frogger]

Honestly looks better than the steroid freak wrestlers from the Arkham games.

 

[Acquiescence]

Oh come on, not Troy Baker again.

 

[Wanderer5]

Ooooooh that looking really nice.

 

[Screaming Meat]

Mmm, yeah, not a fan of that Joker either. Too deep voiced and grumbly, prefer my Joker higher pitched like Hamill's version.

Exactly. Too hoarse and not enough mania. Dude's a great voice actor but he simply doesn't suit Joker. He's not even in my list of best portrayals of the character, and I really like Under the Red Hood. Christ, I prefer Cesar Romero.

 

[Miles Quaritch]

Yep, it is the case here.

At the rate they churn these games out, there's literally no way they'll take time off to create an all new engine.

 

[Ephemeris]

Technically he voiced Batman before he did Joker.

 

[darkwing-buck]

Yeah I like how batman looks normal sized compared to the arkham gears of war look.

 

[Yabberwocky]

I have to admit, I was hoping for a BTAS game adaption, but I can't say no to that voice cast. I do have to laugh at Baker and Bailey playing love interests it yet another video game, especially with Willingham in the cast. Plus yes to Sully!

 

[GTR R35_Supra RZ]

Hawt ! Fiiiyyah ! day one!

 

[peanutbutterlatte]

At least everything in the background isn't a muddy watercolor like in Game of Thrones. I'm playing right now and it's so damn distracting.

Lucky they've got another comic IP, they can't do realistic for tuppence.

HURRRR JON SNOW

 

[orthodoxy1095]

They confirmed that they are using same but "upgraded" engine if i am not wrong.

Eh, I'll take it.

 

[Maple-Tech]

I'm glad their using Darwyn Cooke's catwoman, RIP

 

[BasilZero]

I'm loving the art style.

Huge fan of batman too.

So this will be great for me in the future

 

[Tsukumo]

Craig Smith not doing Batman? My heart is torn apart. Dude was THE best Batman ever.
I love Baker, a real professional and an actor with impressive voice range, but Smith was and is unparalleled as Bats.

 

[Solid SOAP]

Wow. Loving the visual style!

 

[Terrorblot]

You know I've grown sick of the Telltale formula but this seems like a great IP fit for them, I'll bite this time.

 

[plasmawave]

The suit looks like it's from the Origins.

 

[bunkitz]

Goddamn, it looks fantastic! I love the Bat Suit too, it looks like a slicker, more refined version of the Arkham Origins Bat Suit.

Also, that cast. Fuck yes. Troy Baker, Laura Bailey, and Travis Willingham together again!

 

[Prompto]

At this rate, Troy Baker will voice everyone in the Batman universe.

Are you playing on PC? The game didn't look good but I don't remember it looking that bad

 

[barneystuta83]

Interview on IGN E3 stream.

Just a few points so far:

- Engine was described as 'new' by IGN. Telltale corrected and said it is 'upgraded'

- You will spend time as both Bruce and Batman

- Batman is 'writing cheques that Bruce can't cash'

- Look and feel inspired by Walking Dead and the comic books

- The story is 'unique' and is not based on any individual comic, film, or TV show

- You will be playing it 'before the kids go back to school'. Telltale said August.

- Is it going to be detective noir? No, not really. Some elements may come into play. More action and combat than Wolf Among Us.

 

[Gator86]

I was very Meh on the announcement of this game, but after playing Tales From the Borderlands im super stoked to play this

Spoiler

when all the episodes are out

Absolutely me. Tales got them a lot of leeway so I'm excited to see this. Plus, batman, obviously.

The Daredevil Netflix show comes to mind.

Yeah GoT looked like a mess, they totally failed to do a proper Painting look

 

[Falchion]

I'm not going to lie, that looks amazing!

 

[forknknife]

No it doesn't. It looks pretty much exactly the same.

Have you played any tt games? Look at the lighting, this is completely better. Hope this comes with a revamp to their gameplay mechanics because I got so tired of the excessive simplicity of their games.

 

[jmood88]

I really hope that they worked on fixing their animations.

 

[Tizoc]

I don't see anything 'upgraded' or improved in any of those screenshots. I expect even the gameplay to keep the 'jank' and stutter of their previous releases.

That's the dumbest thing I've heard about a Telltale Episodic game. It'll only be true when the last episode releases in Aug. 2017
If we're lucky :V

 

[Bluth54]

Visually it looks really nice but I'm a little disappointed Kevin Conroy isn't voicing Batman.

 

[sn00zer]

Visually it looks really nice but I'm a little disappointed Kevin Conroy isn't voicing Batman.

I think he got a nice send off with the Arkham games and Killing Joke

That's not how you spell Kevin Conroy.

He's voicing Batman on Justice League Action.
