Hey Poor Player's Caleb Turner writes: "I am a Telltale apologist through and through. As a big fan of The Walking Dead Seasons 1 & 2, The Wolf Among Us, and Tales From the Borderlands, I continually look forward to the newest release from the studio. Trust me, I hear the the criticisms that plague every Telltale game. They’re formulaic, they’re buggy as hell, the gameplay is non-existent, and the release schedules seem to be created by a toddler using a calendar as a coloring book. To me, however, Telltale has a special knack for storytelling, and that’s what I tend to enjoy in games."
Neil writes: "When Telltale Games took on the Batman franchise with their initial series in 2016, and then The Enemy Within back in 2017, they providing fans with a new look at the Batman universe; one full of emotion and deep storytelling. Today though those same Batman tales get enhanced, with some graphical goodies coming about via the new Shadows Edition."
I missed this game first time around, I've heard nothing but good things about it since.
Now that it's been updated I see no reason not to jump in over the holidays - thanks for sharing Neil.
I played both and they are truly great games. I'm sure you'll love the twisting stories too.
I love Telltale games and haven't played Batman as yet - so will be great to get this one!
Will probably end up playing Wolf Among Us and Borderlands Telltale again over the holidays.
Episode 5 of Telltales’ Batman: The Enemy Within is outstanding. The promise of Gotham’s most famous villain has been teased since the end of the first season, and the Joker is something to behold. With your decisions influencing which version of Joker you see, this may be the most compelling episode of the season as well as an indicator of where Telltale’s future games may go.
Telltale's second season of episodic Batman content nears its end with the arrival of Episode 4: What Ails You. This season has released to mixed results, and a great penultimate episode is just what it needs. Let's see if Episode 4 delivers.
I'm glad that this is a solid Telltale game. Sounds like the investigative segments work well with the studio's structure.
