    A game by the company that tried to kill the adventure genre. And failed, fortunately, by getting bankrupt with a series of turds that were more like television turds than video game turds.

    You wait for ages, unable to skip, and once an hour you must wake up to choose a dialogue option, except that you can't do that because it's a reading race on a short fuse and the game chooses for    A game by the company that tried to kill the adventure genre.

    Looks like making adventure games for the double-digit IQ crowd wasn't sustainable after all. Good news and good riddance.

    If you want a more involving turd, in which you have more to do, play a walking simulator instead.    … Expand

    I really don't know what the hype was/is for this game. It's supposed to be an adventure game, but in fact it's a game on rails. In only a handful of scenes you feel like you are adventuring a bit.

    It's a bog standard story about friends and heroes. I felt very little emotional connection, maybe just a little bit with the two sisters and a bit with rhys. That's it.

    If you are expecting an adventure game that grasps you by the throat and never let's you go, like the walking dead did, or life is strange ... don't expect it from tales of the borderlands.

    Sometimes, this game was funny and absurd ... it should have been A LOT more like this. Then maybe it would have been a good'ish game.

    I'll probably have forgotten this game and its story by next week...    … Expand

    I hate it. I love games of Borderlands title, but this is just... just... ... (Noah Entwaler's (Spoony) voice)... BETRAYAL! The first games haven't got extremely good plot, but Humor always hid it, when humor wasn't really good, gameplay hid it, when gameplay became boring, plot moved. All was in balance.

    Um jogo feito puramente de diálogos e a produtora nem se quer traduz o jogo para PT( e outras línguas) e taca um foda-se do tipo "Se quer jogar em sua língua traduza você mesmo" .
    Ninguém deve ficar dependendo de trabalhos de terceiros para ter um jogo legendado , principalmente porque até mesmo sites pequenos já fazem esse trabalho hoje em dia, então é obrigação da empresa fazer isso.

    Antes que alguém pense "vá aprender inglês" saiba que eu já sou fluente, e se eu estou pagando caro por um jogo é um direito meu de ter o conforto de joga-lo em minha língua nativa.

    Já o game é como todo jogo da telltale, passam apenas falsas sensações de escolhas, pois não importa qual opção você escolha quase tudo acaba da mesma forma. Eu não considero isso um jogo, pois o significado de um game é dar ao jogador a possibilidade de interagir naquele mundo. Se um jogo não possui essa liberdade no gameplay então ele deve compensar isso no enredo, caso contrário será apenas um filme interativo, e é exatamente isso o que esse "jogo" é.    … Expand

    Tales from the Borderlands can easily compete against the hottest contenders on TV, not just on account of its writing, but also its cinematic beauty.

    If you like a good story, or simply want to return to Pandora one more time, the game is easy to recommend. If you're looking for something that you actively play more than you watch, then you should probably pass on Tales from the Borderlands.

    I can’t express how delighted I was with the first episode. Unfortunately later the game lost some of its magic and oscillated between decent and really good. Despite that fact it’s by far the funniest thing I’ve played in years and I can’t wait to get my hands on the second season. [13/2015, p.63]
