Telltale 'figuring out' how to import saves for The Walking Dead season two
by John Keefer, Jan 04, 2013 3:30pm PSTThe runaway success of Telltale's The Walking Dead game has greenlit a second season. While the ultimate outcome for the five episode adventure may not vary much, the developer is still "figuring out" how to carry over decisions from the first season into the next.
"Right now we are just starting to form the concept for season two," Telltale co-founder Dan Connors told Red Bull UK (via PushSquare). "This all remains to be seen but we are definitely figuring out how to carry the saves over."
Connors also revealed the studio's inspirations for the game, citing some obvious examples. "I think the games that we talked about the most during development were Heavy Rain and Uncharted from a cinematic standpoint, and Mass Effect from a choice standpoint," Connors added "For other media we always look at the best episodic series out there–-obviously The Walking Dead TV show, but also Game of Thrones and Mad Men, for the way they handle characters and are able to present them with so much depth."

The Walking Dead has received its share of accolades, and is being seriously considered in our Game of the Year voting. However, Telltale Games used several high-profile games and TV shows as models when creating the zombie horror adventure.
