CyricZ 09/05/22 8:03:09 AM #5:	Yeah my initial reaction was "oh I actually liked Tales from the Borderlands" then I watched the trailer and was like "Oh right since Telltale collapsed on itself, this won't be that.

It's as mainstream as mainstream gets at this point and there's no specific type of person attached. So, even if you blindly hated the first wave of people who colored there hair and hopped on the wave, that's long passed. You just look super out of touch when you say shit like that.
