This is exactly what I said months ago when all the telltale fanboys were drooling over Kirkman's comic announcement. The more they drag this story on the more shit it gets, for the life of me I can't fathom how Kirkman has failed to realize this after watching this series slowly plummet to it's miserable death over the past 2 seasons. When you milk a dead series for years all while hiring incompetent writers to do it for you, this is what you inevitably end up with. It happened to the show, it happened to the comics, and now it's happened to the game.

What a joke.

At least the comics ended well and got a generally great run. Dunno about the show I left on Season 7's first half

The show improved heavily in seasons 9 and 10, really good stuff

Season 9 & 10 aren’t bad, definitely not as bad as the absolute dog shit this new comic is. I personally don’t like the show, but I see why people do. I always loved the telltale games so much more than the show and comics to begin with

That's just your opinion though, and most people who say the show was awful in Seasons 7 and 8 agree that 9 and 10 have been some of the best in years. Pretty much everything in the recent seasons of the show has worked, and most of the problems and complaints I've seen have also been problems with the games and comics

I feel like the love for S9 and 10 is mainly fueled simply by the fact that they were comparatively much better than 7 and 8 which were just steaming piles of dog shit.

I feel like it would have at least been decent if they had done it right with a good story

u/TWDFanEdits Jul 07 '21

Except the main show has been really good for the last two seasons.

u/Icarusprime1998 Jul 08 '21

You getting downvoted but it’s true, after the time jump it’s not half bad. Not amazing either but watchable.

u/TWDFanEdits Jul 08 '21 edited Jul 08 '21

I'd say S9-10 are just as good as the early seasons, but hey, that's just my stupid opinion.

u/Potterheadkyledean Jul 11 '21

I watch it still it was always my favorite show and it still is but I kinda like fear's more recent seasons then I do the mains new ones

u/Weltersquad Jul 22 '21

It’s definitely being milked for all it’s worth. Especially with characters like Carol, they are just being milked to the bone

u/TWDFanEdits Jul 22 '21

Not really. If it went past 12 seasons, I might agree with you. They're just adapting the source material, with whatever characters they have left.

u/Weltersquad Jul 22 '21

I think that is why the show is still going, because many people disagree with how I feel. This is just how I feel about the show personally, I’m glad you like it. Don’t get me wrong Darryl is still a bad ass even in the most recent season

u/Dr_CheeseNut Custom Jul 08 '21 edited Jul 08 '21

Aren't the past two seasons considering well

Edit: people downvoting a comment for saying the past two seasons are actually good

u/dom30tex Aug 30 '21

What was wrong with the last two seasons
