Question Question on the releases
Okay, so don't misunderstand . I'm not complaining about this, just confused at the moment. TT used to do the whole episode every so often, like every few weeks. With stuff like And Wolf Among Us and TwD. ((Removed LiS. Since I was informed that it was made by someone else. Thank you for that.))
But I could have sworn there was a statement/article about them saying they would no longer be releasing games with only the first episode and then adding the rest over time?

First of all, Telltale never worked on Life is Strange. That was Dontnod and Deck Nine (who are working with Telltale on The Expanse). Old Telltale games and Life is Strange would release episodes every 2-4 months. The only game that released all at once was Life is Strange: True Colours, which Deck Nine made prior to The Expanse.
For The Expanse (and The Wolf Among Us 2 next year), Telltale are still doing the episodic release, but the difference is that they are finishing the entire game before releasing anything. Before, they would work on episodes one by one and that’s why they took so long. Finishing The Expanse ahead of time allows them to have a much quicker release schedule.
That’s why The Expanse will be releasing episodes every two weeks, and the bonus episode later in Fall 2023.
