Trailer and animation style make it seem more like an upcoming tv show than a video game. And honestly, this is a premise that would totally work for a superhero animated series.
@@aliqzakry834 Nah. They new how to make games, you don't come to Telltale games for gripping gameplay. You come for the story and the choices. The thing that Telltale was notorious for being bad at was being overly ambitious with the choices they gave the players, and then failing to follow through with them. I think that's why they're better at either self contained stories that wrap up in one Season (Batman, Wolf) or light-hearted stories that focus more on character interactions/development (Borderlands). I'm hopeful about this one because they very much seem to be going for a smaller scale and more personal story.
They're also with the likes of Laura Bailey, Travis Willingham and Matt Mercer. Each one of them is a voice acting powerhouse in their own right and they've got all three of them.
@@Teinve I think gore would enhance this so much honestly, it looks cool but super heroes have power, real power, the power to literally tear you apart, why not show that? To me any super hero movie is severely lacking when it doesn’t have enough blood
@Teinve You don't like the part that makes Invincible stand out the most? The best part is how it shows a more realistic version of being a superhero and that would HEAVILY include gore. Removing it would remove the impact of half the show lmao.
@@20storiesunder Sure, but they still look like a videogame. Not to dismiss all of Telltale's work, but the animation in this game looks 100 times better than anything before.
@@thefireman17492 I've seen and played plenty of visual novels. They're either stills or janky animation with dialogue that clearly feels like a game. From this trailer, this looks and feels mainly like a tv show it's so fluid and clear.
Gamma by Ogino Jun the protagonists are working for a "hero management" institution started off like an epilogue to a superhero genre, and filled with slice-of-life story. but then the scene turned out to be serious. feels like a superhero story parodying off the genre itself
@Delsin42 there's a sequel to that game called "New Tales from the Borderlands", developed by Gearbox instead of Telltale (Telltale had already gone into bankrupt). Jokes weren't funny and the story was pretty bad, and if your comedic narrative game fails in the comedy and in the narrative, it's a huge failure.
This was the highlight of TGA game announcements for me. Will this be, like, a mix of a Telltale style adventure game and a management-style strategy game? It looks really interesting.
Imagine thinking this looked better than Witcher 4, Onimusha, Okami 2, Team Ico game, Project Century, and Gaper Bingzoid presents: Rampage 2 World Tour.
@@IcarusNadir You're right, his acting prowess is just so above anything they've done. Glad to see Moist is still willing to work with lower level talent!
I popped so hard when I heard the opening of the song, used to jam out to this and Sailing back in high school, thanks to my dad’s amazing taste in music.
At least from this trailer, the writing of this game seems fantastic. Rarely do we get this combo with these sort of simulation games, and for it all to be voiced at this high of a level? Super excited for this, and honestly, it's probably my superhero obsession that's fueling a good part of the excitement lol
Out of every game revealed at the game awards, this is the one game I find myself constantly thinking about/coming back to the trailer to see. I have EXTREMELY high expectations for this game
This would make a great movie as well. Focusing on what goes on behind the scenes of super hero agencies while also going into the difficulties of dispatch and teamwork. I often work with the people in dispatch and it is a much tougher job than you think. Every emergency is different, you are the first person someone in an emergency talks to and you have to deal with with both jack*sses and people in immediate danger which can take a serious toll on your mental health. Also the protagonist seems very relatable. Most people have been there; feeling thankless in your job, working with people you don't always get along with, and all the while dealing with your own problems. I think this story has a lot of potential.
Would be great if so, but i'm hesitant to raise my hopes for that. At 0:19 they seem to promote that it was made by some of the people who worked on the telltale games, and although they are great story based games, their choices don't have that big of an influence on the story.
Man, I cannot wait for multiple endings, this game has a LOT of choices from what I can see, a lot of events between heroes, and maybe even some permanent consequences in the middle to late game
Music definitely makes this trailer even better, this groovy vibes is definitely what this setting needs, hope that there will be something like this in the actual game
honestly from the games that were shown at the game awards this one of the ones im most excited for, which is surprising cause there were a lot of bangers shown
I was very interested when they said it was by former Telltale developers, but then I kept watching and I thought "wait is that Aaron Paul?" and I kept watching and thought "wait is that Jeffery Wright?" and now I'm hooked! And also the gameplay looks nice and the animations look amazing
This is just amazing to see: Former employees of Telltale Games, employees that were fired without any severance pay and ordered to leave the building in 30mins, creating a game that looks really good. Meanwhile Telltale have gone MIA with no word on The Wolf Among Us 2.
From a visual standpoint, they really killed it here. I do hope the story quality is as good as the three games Adhoc used as a comparison / selling point though. Those are some big shoes to fill. Not every company has managed to fill similar shoes when making spiritual successors.
because its not Telltales game Telltales nowadays has character control gameplay and not just pick dialogue This one mostly just movie with multiple choice

@@daniellauricella5132 Might as well be if it's made by telltale devs... they write good stories.but don't know how to make games

Honestly, I was way more invested when I initially thought this WAS about a new series or show. Ah well.
I can't believe they got their hands on the actor that was in the Hunger Games movies. It must be such an honor to work with Charlie
im dying
I cant believe Jessie Pinkman decided to be a superhero. Too bad he lost his suit.
This actually looks way more impressive than it lets on.
This was a nice surprise
I agree dude. I hope the game is as good as it's trailer
I honestly think that’s the point
Yeah I'm genuinely amazed they were able to make the visuals this good alongside the seamless branching in choices.

We are so back!

@@stuieman7709 WHAT
Thanks not buying this game then.
@168original7 So, wanna pirate it?
@168original7 what’s your problem
It’s like the Teletale Invincible game we never got.
It even has more Invincible comic style of humour and dialogue, which is a plus.
Without the Invincible gore which is great
@@Teinve I think gore would enhance this so much honestly, it looks cool but super heroes have power, real power, the power to literally tear you apart, why not show that? To me any super hero movie is severely lacking when it doesn’t have enough blood

This feels like a television show with how the characters talk and interact. I almost can't believe this is a videogame! Color me impressed.
Their previous stuff feels similar. Tales of the borderlands can be so cinematic
It's a visual novel, so of course it's going to be much more cinematic. They're literally just pre recorded cutscenes that change based on your input.
@@20storiesunder Sure, but they still look like a videogame. Not to dismiss all of Telltale's work, but the animation in this game looks 100 times better than anything before.

@@GenIsHuman yep
i hear it lol
That's why it sounded like when he does one of the characters voices in Mouthwash
I can definitely hear it
@@GenIsHuman Insane range
Honestly can’t stop watching the trailer for the look of the game alone, but the structure and strategy intrigue me a ton, too!
Everyone better be talking about this! This is a milestone for sure
It's creative and it's polished high quality. It's what gamers say they want. I'm copping it.
Don't forget the writers of the first tales from the borderlands are writing this
0:17 "Tales from the Borderlands (the first one)" lmao
"Tales from the loop" 2020 (Prime video) references
Context?
@@Delsin42 Tales from the borderlands 2 was made by a different studio and it sucked
"The Wolf Among Us" (still fuckable)

Same! I can’t wait!
I agree this was the best one, good looking characters no bald head lesbian 😜
Is probably the former, with "gameplay" revolving around which heroes you send to which missions.
Imagine thinking this looked better than Witcher 4, Onimusha, Okami 2, Team Ico game, Project Century, and Gaper Bingzoid presents: Rampage 2 World Tour.
Matt Mercer, Laura Bailey, Travis Willingham AND Aaron Paul in the same game? Good god
And Moist critikal (Aka Charlie)

And Jacksepticeye

Graphics like Hifi Rush need more games like this design...
Wow, thank you for 1K like 😊
It's art style not graphics but yes more games need to look like this, like this is indistinguishable from a high-budget animated show for me
Yes! I refuse to believe that realistic graphics are “peak” graphics! This stylized look is my favorite!

that little easter egg is the closest thing we're gonna get to seeing Bigby again (TWAU 2 is cooked)
This trailer is impressive. Hopefully the game turns out well
Cant wait man next year is gonna look good so far hope there's more stuff like this
for those wonder, song is "Christopher Cross - Ride Like the Wind"
Thank you so much
The same music Tom Platz used in his posing routine

Karlach is hardly the only red-skinned demon woman in a video game. Or even in D&D.
First The Hunger Games and now Dispatch, Charlie winning TGA for Best Performer, locking it in.
Nice bit of shade for specifying that they worked on the original Tales from the Borderlands.
Tales from the Borderlands is an amazing game. I hope this one will too
It doesn't look like some mean-spirited and needlessly gory take on superheroes so its caught my interest
As cool as The Boys and Invincible are, I have to say I don't really want any more of those kinds of shows for a while

This is how you make something original from stuff that already exists
Already exists?
@ dispatch games where send police and or help people deal with super natural occurrences and super hero parodies two types of media that exist
@@Onedepressedgamer Yeah isnt that how like, literally anything works? This is like saying "this is how you make an original apple from an apple"
People just say shit to say shit now lmao
@ i meant in the video game industry the creative department in most companies lack the ability to do original
This has a lot of potential. I’d love to see a Netflix show tie in (animated of course). Or games set in other cities.
Out of every game revealed at the game awards, this is the one game I find myself constantly thinking about/coming back to the trailer to see. I have EXTREMELY high expectations for this game
yea same here, this and gta 6 are the ones im more excited about this year.
People who worked in Telltale??? I'M IN!!
Aaron Paul, Jacksepticeye, and Moist Critical? This is the greatest video game cast of all time
Jeffrey Wright too
This would make a great movie as well. Focusing on what goes on behind the scenes of super hero agencies while also going into the difficulties of dispatch and teamwork.

@@HeppyHenry lmao
Not sure its a dating sim but yeah 10/10 if you can date moistcritikal bat
20/10 if we can

2:13 Charlieeeeeeeeeeeeee, i'm so happy lol
Until I saw Aaron Paul’s name, I swore up & down that George Clooney had stepped into the video game arena.
Game looks dope, too.
He doesn't sound like Clooney
Man, I cannot wait for multiple endings, this game has a LOT of choices from what I can see, a lot of events between heroes, and maybe even some permanent consequences in the middle to late game
Damn I want a series of this more than a game now.
This looks fun as hell and the fact that it’s a story game from some of the people from tell tale is just super exciting can’t wait to
My gf worked as a police dispatcher in Seattle. That job is extremely hard.
@@ibthepro and in Seattle no less
Dispatch keeping the Yacht Rock fires alive. Christopher Cross' Ride the Wind was a good call for this trailer.
Is there any other genre of music that captures the 'workin at the office' vibe more than yacht rock? muzak maybe?
This is going to be really quite good I think
You know, I kind a want this as a TV show.
LOOKS PEAKKKKK
The “what hero do you send” part really gives me ‘this is the police’ vibes. Really excited
Here to listen to that one line from the hospital worker from Hunger Games Mockingjay part 2. I heard he’s on the come up.
jacksepticeye and critickal are so good I barely noticed them in the trailer, they nailed their voices
This trailer actually looks really good, I have high hopes
This game looks really promising! It reminds me of "This is the Police" but with superheroes and less cynical.
Im surprised to hear this song ever be brought up. love the artist
Me too man, forgot to even pay attention to it as I was just bopping to the whole song in my head.
Yea I heard it from a rock version first by Saxon and then discovered this one
1:49 is that the peak?
It's hard to see Robert's "dad bod", unless it's one of these choices to have him either stay fat or trim up, given those shots of him working out.
This feels more like an animated series than a video game and that makes me so excited to see what it’s like
"We will remember this."
This actually looks more like a tv show than a game. This is gonna be great
Aaron Paul is such a good voice actor, loved him in Bojack horseman
I really thought this was just an animated series at the start
Thought this was a tv show at first
This game hasn’t even released, and yet I want a tv series about it anyway.
This is the greatest gaming news of all time
This should be a series
Hi Fi rush vibes in both atmosphere and art direction. This one's gonna be special.
honestly, an oracle / "guy in the chair" game is such a smart idea, its a wonder why it was this long for anyone to do it
I enjoyed the telltales series during its prime. Minecraft storymode was particularly my favorite.
So I'll definitely enjoy this.
Just turn this into a series 😭
If he's got what's considered a dad bod, I am beyond fucked 😨
Music definitely makes this trailer even better, this groovy vibes is definitely what this setting needs, hope that there will be something like this in the actual game
@@OcelotArdent yacht rock baby
It definitely looks like an evolved formula of the telltale series’ I’m looking forward to this

God please let the writing be good, this game looks so stacked, please let the writing be actually good.
dude the VOICE CAST IS SO STACKED TOO, pLEASE DON'T MESS THIS UP ADHOC 🙏🙏🙏
Nice to see Jesse turn his life around and become a dispatcher
honestly from the games that were shown at the game awards this one of the ones im most excited for, which is surprising cause there were a lot of bangers shown
I love the concept of hero dispatcher, reminds me of old school games on Armor games and Miniclip back in the days
Okay this is the first trailer I'm SO hyped for! Hell yeah
This is the Police really got a big update
This the witcher and mafia were like the only games that excited me during the awards.
I can't believe they got a super star Hunger Games actor working on this
I was very interested when they said it was by former Telltale developers, but then I kept watching and I thought "wait is that Aaron Paul?" and I kept watching and thought "wait is that Jeffery Wright?" and now I'm hooked! And also the gameplay looks nice and the animations look amazing
Yep Aaron Paul, Laura Bailey, jacksepticeye, moist critikal and a few others I'm pretty sure
This game's charm and wit are already on full display and I'm sold entirely.
This looks like a mash-up of 'This is the Police' and 'Persona', which I'm totally all in for.
Why Persona?
Honestly this looks like a trailer for tv show which I would totally watch.
this game getting insta copped
The voice acting, the comedy, the story direction, I’m so fucking excited for this game

Laura is at 1:12. Not sure who the blonde character is played by but it’d be cool if it’s Melissa Hutchinson (Clem)
@@averyfossett The blonde girl is played by Erin Yvette (Snow White from The Wolf Among Us)
This is a "grounded" take on superheroes I can get behind.
I feel Marvel and DC have been focused on realism for too long.
From a visual standpoint, they really killed it here. I do hope the story quality is as good as the three games Adhoc used as a comparison / selling point though.
Those are some big shoes to fill. Not every company has managed to fill similar shoes when making spiritual successors.
What song is that?
Ride Like the Wind by Christopher Cross
@ thanks
I know it's kinda been done before, but this feels closer than ever to an interactive tv show rather than just a game.
Like the art style, look sort of different from other tales game.
remains me of hi-fi rush actually
because its not Telltales game
Telltales nowadays has character control gameplay and not just pick dialogue
This one mostly just movie with multiple choice
So much respect for the small note at 0:15
1:55 idk why but she reminds me of vi from arcane
I doubt you’re the only one. Like the shot at 2:10 has some crazy Vi energy about it. Without a doubt she was an inspiration
Every women with short hair and cropped jacket looks like vi 😂
This seems like something that would be perfect as a show or movie.
From the people that also brought you all the games that pretend your choice matters.
Well, some choices do actually matter in those games. But a lot of the times it is misleading. Hopefully this game doesn’t do that.
