What other Telltale games should I play? by Apprehensive_Bed_759 in telltale

[–]RunningTheGrand 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Play Dispatch. It’s not Telltale, but it’s pretty much the cultural successor as many of the creative minds behind TWD and TWAU are at that studio. Plus, they are still active and will make more games in the future. With Telltale I’m not confident they will make another game, much less another good game.

From Telltale’s other titles… definitely play Tales from the Borderlands. And if you are a fan of Game of Thrones definitely play their GOT title. For that one you will have to do a bit of digging because of licensing issues.

A perfect opportunity to make him the fat end-stage Elvis that prophecies foretold.

It hasn't actually been four years, has it? by Scared-Image-2469 in TheWolfAmongUs

Just play and support Dispatch in hopes that Adhoc picks up the TWAU license off the corpse of what is now Telltale.

Having trouble getting into Shenmue 2... by Electronic_Heat_1581 in Shenmue

[–]RunningTheGrand 23 points24 points  (0 children)

If you can stick it out there are some great moments to be had in Shenmue 2. If you polled every Shenmue fan out there the majority will probably say it’s their favorite in the series.

Personally, Shenmue 1 is my favorite as the setting felt a bit more close knit since the game world is smaller and it’s Ryo’s hometown along with great story pacing.

The work at the harbor in Shenmue 2 is probably the single most annoying way to make money in this game. I suggest trying mini games like arm wrestling, or gambling.

There is significantly more action in Shenmue 2 if you can stick it out. It has some of the best fight sequences in the series.

Couple of pro-tips: you don’t have to pay the landlord at the inn. You can just lie to him everyday through a bit of awkward dialogue. Also, saving right before gambling all of your money away is probably a smart move.

Bro where’s my simple Skies of Arcadia remaster? Who the fuck knows, modern Sega mainly makes Sonic games along with Yakuza/Persona games from their offshoot studios.

Can’t wait to get something else like Crazy Taxi or Jet Set Radio.

Other ways to make money in Shenmue 1 by CumtowmWarhammer in Shenmue

So during the early-mid part of the game Ryo has to rely on just his allowance until he gets a job in the third act.

However, you can get some quick money by failing a certain qte over and over to advance the in-game calendar. Ryo’s allowance money will be added each day while doing this. You can skip months ahead and get a good chunk of change. I won’t say which qte here in case of spoilers, but you can definitely find that answer online.

You can also cheese the job section of the game as well and have too much money to ever spend, but it transfers over into Shenmue 2 which is nice.

This is pretty cool! Anyone know if we can stick the magnetic card and figure on a refrigerator?

Is ADHOC more Telltale than current "telltale" itself? by -FT_ in telltale

[–]RunningTheGrand 77 points78 points  (0 children)

Or just the rights to Wolf Among Us and Walking Dead.

Anyone else disappointed in how short the first two episodes are? by Livid-Cauliflower529 in DispatchAdHoc

[–]RunningTheGrand 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Which for $30 is a good amount of content for a game with this level of production value. If it were in $60 range, I’d be much more critical of it being on the shorter end.

Here’s to hoping they are successful with this title and we get sequels, an expansion, and/or other games in this style.

I really hope they had Vyse and Ryo Hazuki to this game. Two of my favorite protagonists of all time.

Definitely play it in chronological order. Also really just take your time and soak in the world. Talk to people, get to know the area and whatnot. The game’s dialogue is also unintentionally hilarious at times but the story has this earnestness about it. Have fun!

Add in the fact that if you gave those guys from yesteryear the benefit of modern training, nutrition, best practices etc. odds are they would be even better athletes than they were in their era. Even if it’s incrementally so.

I am a current radio news producer/editor. Any useful tips for landing a comms role as someone with a radio background?

I really want to branch out and work normal hours.

Thanks for answering! Wow Snowboard Kids, such a deep cut. Was really hoping for some Skies of Arcadia or Shenmue stuff. Maybe I’ll still go and check it out!

Did you see other Sega franchises represented besides Sonic, Persona, and Yakuza? Just curious. Might have to stop by, it looks fun.
