    As a walking dead fan, seeing the franchise go from falling apart to flat out not having any effort put into it anymore is so sad. AMC could’ve taken the smarter route of making this game better and more liked by lots, but rather took the cheap and fast route to get a quick cash grab. I haven’t played it yet, but I’m not looking forward to it.

    The sad thing about this game is that it honestly had so much potential. The creativity of having multiple different paths you could take to an already established storyline is very intriguing. But unfortunately it was wasted by a game studio that is just a puppy mill for games (the studio cant even be smart enough to hide its own name) and an IP that clearly will give anyone with a half baked idea for it the greenlight.

      It could have been Detroit become human but a plot people actually care about but they’re so lazy. I would have waited 10 years on the game to make the quality better but it’s just so clear these devs didn’t care. I really hope someone else can make a sequel or something that actually justifies the premise cuz this is GOLD they’re sitting on a literal gold mine

    Hey I actually liked Survival Instinct. I had my friend play it once, and I 100% swear to you on my life ( i wish I recorded it) that during that intro where Dixon's dad got overwhelmed, he actually didn't get overwhelmed. It was his very first time playing. He got headshots for all 8 rifle rounds he fired and rounded up the rest of them and ran a train just like in COD zombies in that tight space. It was one of the most impressive things I've ever witnessed in video games. It was pure skill, my jaw dropped. After a minute or two of 'edge of your seat' action and clutch after clutch, the screen just goes blank and cuts to the scene where he's being eaten. My friend was confused. He looks over at me and my jaw is still wide open. He's like, "What?" and I'm like, "You are literally not supposed to beat that part."

    Honestly with more time, a higher budget, and a production crew that cared, this could have been a really good game. I think the choice aspect that changes characters that strain from the original main story is really cool. Third person combat is definitely the way to go in a game like this. Overall, this still has potential if a major developer picked up on it instead.

Try to play Telltale WD again. Then replay a chapter where you have made a choice between 2 people. They will both serve the same function in that chapter, and in many cases say the same dialogue. It's boring and creates the illusion of choice. True concept of that type of game would be to create a tree, where choices leads to different outcomes, not just in terms of characters, but setting, story, gameplay and so on.

    The sad part about The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct is that it could've been a really good game. The opening level is great and the base mechanics were unique. The problem is the publisher was trying to force them to release the game as soon as possible. So the version of Survival Instinct that we got was essentially an alpha if not pre-alpha that was quickly scrambled together for release without developer consent. It's basically the Big Rigs Over The Road racing of zombie survival games as a result.

    • @merlotwilliams
      @merlotwilliams 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Both Survival Instinct and Destinies have the skeletons of good games. I remember they wanted to push SI to release prior to Merle's death in the show and was marketed as the prequel for Daryl and Merle. Due to the rush, it turned out as you stated.
      The case seems to be similar for Destinies but what I'm failing to understand is...why? Why rush this? The Walking Dead was at the height of it's powers in seasons 3 and 4 with something like 14 million weekly live viewers. So while it's scummy, I can see the dip shit corporate think of trying to release the game to capitalize on sales. With the series "finale" they barely cracked 1 million viewers and, save for the Daryl spin off, I can't see the audience being beyond that million or so die hard fans. So why rush this game? The Walking Dead has been...well...dead for years. Who are you rushing this title to sell to? It doesn't make sense to me.
      Destinies could have been an awesome alternate universe telling of The Walking Dead's universe like Gihren's Greed was for the Gundam universe. As it stands, they released this abomination.

Lots of the self proclaimed Shitter police than complained about the unnecessary violence against harmless NPC's, including our GmanLives. You know, the guy who keeps praising games for being "gloriously violent", saying how much fun it is to run amok in games like Postal and so on. He also claimed that there are no missions in GTA that make you kill civilians.

    the funniest thing is they had the ideas down properly with a faithful recreation of the show but with a twist of changing the destinies,all they had to do was make the gameplay fun,HAVE ACTUAL good artstyle and graphics,because come on man,its been like 2-3 years since ps5 came out,current gen games shouldnt come out looking like ps2 games.

    I refuse to let this game ever over shadow the amazing emotional roller coaster of our sweet and brave Clementine. She is the only game character that deserves the praise! Her story, the storyline, her bravery. She's such an admirable person from scared little girl to murderous protagonist with some humanity. This game is not TWD.

    I’m pretty sure Survival Instinct also had a mechanic where you could send survivors on scavenging runs while you were doing missions and they could die on them so it even had a bit more Risk v Reward with your group members then this game does it seems.

  • @clevernamehere2812

    I coined a term in fiction called "Lost Syndrome." Basically, it's when a TV show kills off a character randomly mostly just for shock value in a fake attempt at raising the stakes. Lost was so popular that a lot of shows were doing it such as Heroes, The Walking Dead, and The 100.
    So when I heard that a game based off of those TV shows comes along and allows you to specifically alter the "destinies" of these pointless deaths for player engagement, that sounded like an instant game of the year premise.
    But to miss the landing this badly is so disappointing. The wasted potential is honestly the worst part of this whole thing. It could have been PS2-level graphics and gameplay and I would have been fine with that. The PS2 was good and had a lot of great games and the Destinies gimmick could have been leaned into to make up for it and it'd be an instant classic even as a budget game.

      The walking dead killed off popular characters in the season 7 premiere because that’s what happened in the comics.

    • @blockyorbits2376
      @blockyorbits2376 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The difference is that Lost didn't kill off characters just for shock value. Every death served a greater purpose to the plot. When the Walking Dead kills Abraham, it's obviously for shock value because he is literally never brought up ever again.

    Honestly this should've been a $10-15 story-driven indie game, half Oregon Trail and half visual novel. The simpler gameplay and dramatically reduced production costs would've allowed for a greater variety of outcomes, and more extensive coverage of the show's story. Genuinely sad to see a pretty cool core premise wasted so badly.

    This is such an interesting concept for a game. Not even just TWD, I mean you could do GoT, Breaking Bad, whatever. Playing a whole What If? type story where you can see what would have happened if certain characters were alive or if things played out differently is super intriguing. A shame that this game turned out so lame. I don’t think it’s the worst one of the year, but definitely bad

    I don't know why Gmanlives claimed that this game is from the same guys who made Gollum. It's not. GameMill had absolutely nothing to do with the Gollum game which was developed and published by Daedalic. One look at the respective Steam pages shows that. To be fair, Gollum, the Kong game and this atrocity all suck terribly.
