I enjoyed what I played, and the choices felt like they could potentially be impactful in the future. Episode 1 is incredibly short, however. I explored a bunch, picked up most, if not all, the extra resources and it still clocked in at under an hour. Looking back, there were four main ‘scenes’ that actually contributed to any story.
Good start, but I really hope the future episodes are more substantial.
Right. Now, please, an Expanse space sim where I can pilot the ships and engage in battles. Because that was the best part of the show.
Omg yes. I have no idea how it would work, I’m imagining turn based combat since it’s ttrpg based, but i want it so badly.
No turn based. Full-on hardcore space sim with 100% realistic physics and weapons systems similar to Independence War, Hunternet and DCS. Or, put in another way—Orbiter with guns.
Man I thought telltale died. I must have gotten berenstein’s gated again.
And I got all excited to play this, just to find out it’s only on Epic for PC. Ugh.
What platforms will The Expanse: A Telltale Series come to at launch on July 27? The Expanse: A Telltale Series is set to launch on Xbox One / X|S , Playstation 5 / Playstation 4, and PC (on PC, it is a limited timed exclusive for Epic Games Store).
And the wait begins.
What’s the issue people have with Epic Games Store?
The exclusivity-thing is a no-brainer for someone that needs to break into a market dominated by a behemoth like Valve. How would you suggest Epic Games Store grow the fastest with a big bag of Fortnite-money?
Sony plays this game the best and I don’t see as many gamers complaining about their anti-competitive behaviour, despite being the biggest one…
Epic as a company is another thing completely though but is that why gamers hate on the Epic Store?
let’s hope the 1 year exclusivity is from the release of the first episode rather than the release of the last one. To be fair, I don’t hate the epic launcher and have bought a few games there, but being an epic exclusive reduces the possibility for the game becoming cheaper quickly and there’s very few games I am willing to spend even 40 Euros for.
That just eleveates guilt for 🏴☠️, I was genuinely going to pay for it, but Epic paid for me to not have the opportunity on Steam.
What’s annoying is the game devs went on Reddit to ask what everyone’s preferred gaming platform was before making this game a 1 year epic exclusive.
If it was the devs, that seems more like they were trying to gather data to give to the higher ups to sway in their preferred direction. I’m sure the devs would like their work to be published on arguably the biggest gaming marketplace opposed to the execs getting a fat bag of cash from Epic for exclusivity.
