hey kent! I was wondering if you know if there was ever any plans for a season 3 of telltale batman before ttg went bankrupt, and if there was is there anything you can say about it? I love that game a whole lot and i’m so sad to see it won’t get to be continued. still love your work on it though and i’m glad we even got a second season!
There were never real plans for a season 3. The team very casually kicked some ideas around for what it might be, but we knew with the direction the studio was headed and all the other titles on the roster, it was highly unlikely we’d return to Gotham again and if we ever did it would be years in the future. Telltale was about to try and move away from the various issues that come with doing big name licensed games, and Batman (despite it being awesome) didn’t make enough money to justify the cost of producing it.
We knew this going into S2s ending, and wanted to make it feel like it could be an ending to the series. I’m pretty happy with how it ends. It doesn’t tie up every loose end but Bruce and Alfred’s arc that started in S1 ends in S2 exactly how we intended. (and that joker shit got as gay as I could possibly make it)
Also ask me sometimes about my bonkers idea for a playable Robin season that I would NEVER be allowed to make in a million years :P
