I wonder how much this decline was to do with how heavily they embraced things like Humble Bundle

I for one never bought a Telltale game because I knew they'd wind up as either in part of a pretty solid bundle or even just a full fledged Telltale bundle. Can't think of another company in the games industry who so willingly devalued their whole catalogue as quickly. Assume the goal was to get loads of people up to date so they'd pay full price on launch for the next season of w/e but...

I think the use of Humble was definitely about the episodic nature of the product, but I'm not sure it worked very well. Humble buyers were presumably a bit less excited for the games than others, and I seriously doubt it was enough extra headcount to overcome the fact that Telltale basically sold games to shrinking funnels.

Everyone I know who enjoyed the first GoT Telltale game had quit by the third, but apparently there were six in total? That hardly looks like a sustainable technique.
