Minecraft Story Mode
Click to viewI'd forgotten all about that whole thing. (I totally heard the voice of Lee Everett/Bluebeard in that trailer, though, which is not a bad thing.)
Yeah... I'm typically a supporter of Telltale Games, generally speaking, but this? This... well, as I said in the other post, I'm still not going to just completely dismiss it out of hand, but... yeah... I really think you might be starting to scrape the bottom of the barrel here, Telltale.
Don't get me wrong, despite all the bullshit surrounding it these days, I think that Minecraft is still a pretty cool game. Granted, I haven't touched it at all in a couple of years or more now, but still, I liked it back when I did play it. But to take an open world crafting/exploration game that has no real story whatsoever and turn it into an episodic adventure game along the lines of The Walking Dead or The Wolf Among Us or what have you... yeah... I think that's going to be a pretty tall order. But if anyone can do it, it would be Telltale Games, I guess. Then again, the fact that Minecraft doesn't have a story (outside of, maybe, the Herobrine bullshit made up by players, which isn't officially in the game at all) means that Telltale can essentially go crazy and do whatever they want, so there's that to consider, I suppose.
