How Telltale Went Broke

Описание: How a reliance on investment funding, a fruitless formula, and leaks to the press precipitated one catastrophic week in Telltale's 14-year history.

Reliance on investment funding: 3:30
The internal adoption of The Walking Dead's "formula:" 9:09
Leaks to the press: 12:45

Massive thanks to those who chose to reach out, and for them making so many great games over the years.
