NowGamer: Charles Cecil, creator of the renowned Broken Sword series, has pinned the decline of the adventure game genre on the rise of Sony's Playstation
"It's fairly clear why the adventure [genre] declined during the Nineties..."

"The best games of the year and the creative teams behind them were in the spotlight at the grand award ceremony of the German Computer Game Award 2024." - German Computer Game Awards.
The long-awaited sequel to the 2013 narrative adventure is currently expected out sometime in 2024.
Oh hell yeah! I feel like this was one hell of an underrated game, and I'm glad to see that a part 2 is coming.
This was my favorite Telltale game. I’m definitely going to play this. Hopefully it has less jank than the Telltale games had. I didn’t think it would happen but I’m happy it’s coming
Great, loved the first game and happy a sequel is coming but after such a lengthy development, are Telltale gonna be releasing it episodic with non specific time delays between episodes? If it is episodic, they need to have a full set of dates laid out for every episode so we know what we are getting & when like Resident Evil Revelations 2 did, buying episode 1 and not knowing when the rest will come is just unacceptable in 2024.
I always loved Telltale games. They were like those old choose your own adventures books.
arcade quality gaming in your front room, the tekkens,gran turismo,gta,resident evil, crash bandicoot, one of the biggest selling ADVENTURE games tomb raider..playstation changed gaming from a geeky hobby to a adult pasttime.
charles cecil it aint sonys fault your games never evolved with the gamer
One word: UNCHARTED. Best adventure game ever. I have been gaming long before the PS1 and nothing says adventure like Nathan Drake.
LOL?
Uncharted is action adventure, not adventure. Adventure games are point and click games and you can't blame the Playstation for their decline.
.1) the move to 3D games (not just PlayStation, but PC etc.) made people graphics whores and Adventure games are only marginally better in £d than Sonic...They're just not suited to 3D.
.2) Most Adventure games sucked. My favourite series ever is Monkey Island I must add. I loved the games (even the 4th). I liked Grim Fandango too. Wasn't a big Broken Sword fan but it was alright. Sam and Max bugged me because of it's obvious humour and Day of the Tentacle was good but I gave up with the character swapping. The thing is, though obviously a lot of people will have enjoyed the ones I wasn't the biggest fan of, they require brains to make and many adventure games had illogical puzzles etc. There were classics, but so many were crap.
I like the Bone series though and will forever hope for Monkey Island 5. The Wii would be great for it, so would the PC (obviously). But I just couldn't blame the Playstation for it.
no, the FPS is the one must be blamed (i like it though)
