Having your own niche and excelling at it seems like a solid way to stay in business so yeah it was likely internal issues.
Yea, TWD S1 was really, really good. I played through the second season too, but it grew really old halfway through that - basically it was just "the worst possible thing that can happen will happen" and it got really predictable and depressing.
RPS calling it "little girl torture simulator" was pretty accurate.
Telltale had some amazingly good games though - Wolf Among Us is by far the best one I've played by them.
Life Is Strange beat them at their own game though.

Illusions in that they didn't really impact the overall storyline, yes. They did a pretty clever thing by showing you how your choices compared to what others had chosen at the end of each chapter though.
I'm pretty shocked at TTG going busto - huge fanbase, technically uncomplicated games which were basically only dependent on competent graphical artists and very good storywriters (which they had covered). I don't really see how that could fail - at least not out of the blue like that.
