What is the Telltale Treatment?

A practice in video games that involve the player's choices being able to influence the game and the character's fate. The Telltale Treatment is where the characters whose status (dead, alive etc) is influenced by the player's choices but the character in question ends up dying on later on in the story either way. This is named "The Telltale Treatment" as it is most common in Telltale Games' games such as The Walking Dead.

Despite saving Nick from his demise in Season 2 Episode 2 of Telltale's The Walking Dead, Tom was pissed when he found a zombified Nick in Episode 4.

"Fuck man, Nick really got the Telltale Treatment..."
