Their type of game does best as a AA, triple A indie type production because they'd never sustain tons of sales. But they expanded super fast, spent tons of money on licenses. I would have liked to see them develop their own stories, but *shrugs*
I don't think this brand of storytelling is going away. But I don't think it'd happen in the AAA space. Smaller studios doing smaller productions, like the company doing Life is Strange and its sequel.

Supposedly they were 250 people. That is kinda many. It probably was too many to sustain.

Crap. That's a shame! For a long time there weren't any other studios like Telltale. Well, it was a great run while it lasted! And I can happily say Telltale inspired me to continue trying to hone my creativity.

Even worse news. So far, details are saying that due to Telltale's closure, the final season of the Walking Dead will also be scrapped. Although, those details are a little sketchy at best. Telltale should be providing more news and details about their current projects in the next few weeks. Hope that they at least get a chance to finish the final season!
And while we won't be getting Telltale's Stranger Things, apparently Netflix is still going ahead with getting Minecraft Story Mode on their service.

I don't follow Telltale Games, but this seems so out of the left field. Has there been any rumblings before this announcement?

Well, they did recently lay off half their staff before in early 2018, presumably, so they could focus on Walking Dead Final Season and reevaluate their decision. I guess now they realized the big problem was that they just weren't making enough to sustain themselves.

Motherfucker. Oh not you Dome, thx for the update Seriously though, I gave up on playing TWD after season one and haven't played a TT game since. I got sick of the genre. After that I just watched Cry play it on YT. Even so, I know there are so many fans out there and to go through 4 seasons and NOT find out Clem's fate? That is just terrible. To focus on Minecraft instead? ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I feel so bad for the fans.

This is fucking bullshit. Poor management decisions and them being morons are responsible. Why people paid for years for same engine reskin clones I'll never know but obviously the core base of fans to support their expensively licensed IPs obviously were not there.

This is one of the reasons I dislike episodic games. Something goes wrong and you are left high and dry. I'm still baffled as to why they became popular with publishers. I get bored of the hype before the last episode is out, and if I'm going to buy them I'll wait for the entire thing to be done so I can go at my own pace.

The Quarian Arc was a dangling subplot, but Andromeda's main storyline concluded in the base game. For better or worse .

I've only ever bought episodic games after the last episode was completed so I could play through the whole thing at my leisure... but maybe that makes me a part of the problem.
Damn. Was really looking forward to Wolf Among Us 2.

There's nothing wrong with episodic games conceptually, and a lot right about it for customers. LiS and LiS:Yo were also episodic and did fine.
Telltale's business failure has been a long time coming, and has more to do with basing all their games on IP owned by other people, paying top dollar for that IP, and the most expensive IP being on it's own decline in popularity. That's a fatal combination.

Was really looking forward to Wolf Among Us 2. Me too but it's not us, I think it's the concept itself. Lots of people want the whole game right now, and/or they want to see reviews of the entire game so they'll wait it out. And TWAU was so wonderfully odd and dark, I wanted to see how they'd approach a new series.
