I saw the game only has four characters, and I'm confused as to why there isn't a fifth. 
 
You think they're gonna add someone from Monkey Island or something before launch? 
 
It's weird playing poker without five guys.  :|

I'm sure they'll add characters closer to its release and of course there's always DLC.

I know a guy. John Marston, you might have heard of him. 
I've heard he is pretty good at poker. 

The fifth guy is you. You don't play as the other 4 characters, you just play poker with them.

I thought it was an online game? "

Check out the first game TellTale ever put out. I say it's gonna be pretty much identical to that, except with these characters.

Yes, Master Chief

Poker is played with five people? Damn, I don't know anything about poker.
 
And yet I don't regret my purchase at all. The regret will come later, after the game is released.

I'd pay $5 extra bucks to get rid of Tycho. 
 
Give me Guybrush, or Marty or...seriously anyone else.

I imagine additional content is contingent on the sales of the game. I doubt they'll bring any new lawyers into the fold, though.  Sam, Gabe, other TF2 dudes, and other Telltale owned dudes. Maybe a robot from Portal. And I think his question is more are they bringing other dudes in who can take the place of the existing dudes. Like, a roster, or whatever.

I know a guy who likes to talk.......a lot.
