The Walking Dead Game Trailer
The Walking Dead game trailer is getting a lot of negative feedback from players concerned about graphics, animations, and voice acting, along with a general sentiment of fatigue with the franchise being milked to its last drops. Many players are also expressing disappointment, hoping for improvements in the final product.
Some players are expressing frustration with producers making unnecessary changes to source material for the sake of “diversity” or “political correctness.” Others suggest reading the comics instead, as they believe the story is better than the show and will not be “dumbed down” by Hollywood writers.
Comment sections are also discussing other instances of source material being mishandled or outright ruined, such as Aladdin, The Dark Crystal, and even the Ghostbusters reboot.
The Walking Dead game trailer received flak for its low quality, with some comparing it to a product from Wish.com and the PS2 era. There is also concern about the mismatch between actors’ faces and different voices.
Despite reservations, some users are keeping an open mind and hope for a compelling narrative. Others have already given up on the game and are looking forward to Overkill’s The Walking Dead, despite the negative reception of the previous game.
Others point to other spinoffs in the form of graphic novels and novels. Some even mention the VR game “The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners.”
Comments from The Walking Dead Game Trailer YouTube
Despite the negative comments, the limited budget of the indie studio behind the game may be the reason behind poor graphics and animations.
Another game is mentioned in the comments: “That’s the one that looked like the original Overkill but was actually a complete failure. Can’t remember the name though.”
This user recommends the Telltale series: “The only great game based on The Walking Dead.”
And another: “The Walking Dead: Michonne and The Walking Dead: A New Frontier are great. The rest of the games… Well, you can see for yourself.”
There is also confusion about a potential Rick movie and the re-release of the show.
