Doesn't matter. It's happening.

Literally no one, but ttg forum kiddies will lap it up as usual.

>Why can't Telltale do anything right with this franchise?*

I don't know. If not for TftB, I'd assume that TWD S1 was a case of broken clock being right. But they are clearly still capable of creating a fun experience.

>How pissed are you about this?*

Not very. I think I pretty much gave up on TWD when season 2 happened. I only stick around because I like you guys.

People have lives. He's probably just busy.

So I guess now I have time to discuss this Michonne thing. I guess this confirms once and for all that TWDG takes place in the same universe as the comic. Or does it? Do you think there will be any interaction with existing TWDG characters?

>>26250

I read that Kirkman said the game is not canon to the comics, but then we have this DLC which is supposed to "bridge the gap" between the two?


 No.26252

Well, he did post something about that pink drawing edit last week. He has no obligation to post here so that's his business.

>Kirkman said the game is not canon to the comics

I didn't know this, do you remember where you read this? I guess if that's the case, this game is just part of the comic universe and nothing else. So yeah, a total cop-out. Why release a miniseries that would flesh out the universe you spend 2 games constructing when you can just rip off the comics?

I think by "bridge the gap", they meant the gap when Michonne was gone in the comics. I have a morbid curiosity about how bad the comics are, so I'm downloading the latest issue.

Also, is the guy that wanted that one gif "clemified" still here? Cause if not, I'm just gonna do my own SFM stuff.

>>26231

>Why?* No seriously, why?* What were they thinking?*

These all seem similar enough. I think this DLC is meant to attract fans of both the comics and the show (Michonne is in both of them of course) to TWDG.

>Who's responsible for this?*

This I'm actually interested in. I think it may have initially been Skybound's or Kirkman's idea and Telltale just rolled with it because they just take any offer given to them, but that's just my guess.

>Who the hell asked for this?*

Not TWDG fans that's for sure and I'm pretty sure comic fans don't care about the game either. That may be the point though, to merge TWD's fractured fanbase to some degree.

>Why can't Telltale do anything right with this franchise?*

They did S1.

>How pissed are you about this?*

Disappointed but honestly not angry. For a long while it didn't even seem like we were getting anything TWDG-related at all in 2015, not even DLC so as far as I'm concerned we're just back to square one.

>>26239

This post is probably just bait but to answer this seriously no one expected or want this, especially not TWDG fans.

>>26250

>I guess this confirms once and for all that TWDG takes place in the same universe as the comic

I thought that was always the case? If it wasn't Kirkman wouldn't have that timeline restriction on it.

>>26251

Where did you read that from?

Apparently they start off great but take an immediate nosedive at a certain point when Kirkman ran out of ideas. The art also got worse.

>as far as I'm concerned we're just back to square one

I guess that's one way of looking at it.

Maybe it's a bit selfish of me, but I'm pretty disappointed because this thing, which I really don't have much interest in, is what I wasted my time going to SXSW and asking a question for.

It's nice that they haven't completely forgotten about TWDG, and perhaps this miniseries might actually have a chance of being somewhat decent and garner some interest. Do we know any expected release date?

>take an immediate nosedive

This is the cover page to the latest issue of TWD. The Walking Dead, a comic supposedly about the undead apocalypse, has a pleasant market scene as its front cover. What the fuck.

As far as I can tell, the only thing that happens in this issue is that Rick and Michonne decide to go find Carl, who is being held captive by those people that dress up like zombies. Seems incredibly boring.

This fall according to Eurogamer https://twitter.com/eurogamer/status/610484977692622848

Telltale retweeted it so I assume that's correct

>Due this autumn, this spin-off will be set after the events kicking off Season Two of the game. As such, Michonne will be DLC for Season Two, and you'll have the have the first episode of that season to access it.


 No.26257

>>26256

>sameanon

> this spin-off will be set after the events kicking off Season Two of the game

So I was right on that. I'm betting S3 will take place after Michonne, forwarding TWDG's timeline two years to sync with the comics'. I wonder how much this mini-series will intersect with the TWDG storyline.

>Michonne will be DLC for Season Two, and you'll have the have the first episode of that season to access it.

It seems weird that despite supposedly being a spin-off series it's functionally also S2 DLC. That actually kind of annoys for some reason.


 No.26258

>>26256

What? Why does it matter when it takes place during TWDG if it's just the comic universe? And why would S3 be affected by this at all?

Now I'm even more confused.

>>26257

>That actually kind of annoys for some reason.

It's understandable, really. If their objective is to get comic people interested in the game, what better way of doing it than forcing them to buy S2? Maybe they'll pull some weird thing where you can buy the Michonne miniseries with just Episode 1 of S2. Then people who are interested in continuing S2 (those poor, poor souls) can buy the rest with a season pass.


 No.26259

>>26255

Really? You'll do it? Fuckin' sweet, thanks anon.


 No.26260

>>26258

>What? Why does it matter when it takes place during TWDG if it's just the comic universe? And why would S3 be affected by this at all?

Because the game and comic series are the same universe, Glen and Hershel appeared in S1. That's why I wondered how Michonne will intersect with TWDG. I wouldn't be surprised to see some S2 characters appear in it.

>It's understandable, really

It mainly annoys me because this isn't the DLC I or anyone else wanted and yet despite supposedly being it's own spin-off product it's being distributed as S2 DLC. It's like salt being rubbed into the wounds. On the bright side(?) I guess this means it's free for owners of S2 unless I'm misreading the article.

Though now that you mention it this does mean comic fans that are just interested in this storyline will likely buy S2 as their first TWDG game which is fucking weird. I'm not too concerned for them though they should be used to bad writing at this point.

>>26259

Yeah, sure. Don't expect me to put that much effort into it, though.

>>26260

I guess you're right about Glenn and Hershel, but don't really consider them as comic characters in the sense of being in the same universe. Like how Rick is different in the show and the comics. But if there's any interaction between original TWDG characters and Michonne, I'd take that to mean it's the same universe.

Time will tell, I guess. I'm actually a little curious to see what they're gonna do with this, even if I'm not interested in buying it.

It's storming pretty hard and I don't want to risk a power surge, plus I have to get up early tomorrow to visit the DMV. Ughh…

So wait, does this mean people that own S2E1 are getting Michonne free or that they'll only be able to buy it with it? If it's the latter and Telltale's goals is to get comic fans to buy their game why would they make them pay twice just to play this supposed spin-off mini-series only comic fans would have interest in?

>>26258

>Maybe they'll pull some weird thing where you can buy the Michonne miniseries with just Episode 1 of S2. Then people who are interested in continuing S2 (those poor, poor souls) can buy the rest with a season pass.

I'm thinking this will be the case. The question in that case is would people who own S2 have to pay for Michonne?

>>26261

>I guess you're right about Glenn and Hershel, but don't really consider them as comic characters in the sense of being in the same universe. Like how Rick is different in the show and the comics

The TV show and comics are confirmed not the same universe. They don't even share some of the same characters. Telltale's spin-offs usually share the same universe with the source material since that's their gimmick (Jurassic Park, Game of Thrones TV show, Borderlands, Wolf Among Us, etc.) It's also why TWDG Glen and Hershel look like they do in the comics rather than their very different TV show counter-parts.

Good night.

400 Days had no impact on Season 2, so there's no way this will have any affect on the game's story.

It does get better with each episode, but so far, not to the point where I'd recommend buying it.

Who knows, but it's clear now that Telltale doesn't care about TWD anymore, and it's just a cashcow franchise to them. I don't even care how it ends anymore, I just want it to stop so they don't keep putting out shitty game after shitty game every two or three years.

Jesus, it's been raining so much recently. I was stranded for a few hours at an auto shop today due to all the flooding.

>>26301

That was a noble gesture and doubt that anyone would object if they were still around. I do think seeing that tearful pleading might convince some people, especially Mike or Bonnie, that Kenny had good intentions. That doesn't mean they wouldn't still want to leave him.

>>26304

I think if that were the case, they might just wait around for Wellington to accept them. Basically the stubborn Clem ending.

>>26305

Retrograde amnesia usually fixes itself with time. There's really nothing that can be done in the meantime. If she wants to know, you tell her, but her memory will come back eventually anyways.

A better question to ask would be what caused the amnesia in the first place. The most likely candidate would be an extremely traumatic event. But there's very few traumatic events that Clem hasn't experienced. That only really leaves a head injury, alcoholism or some STDs, which would all cause bigger problems than just amnesia.

Man, it's depressing to think about how much she's been through.

I seriously did not fucking understand why the rest of Clem's group didn't want to rip Arvo apart after leading them into an ambush, getting Luke shot, and risking the lives of everyone including the baby - and actually getting Luke/Bonnie killed by taking them over a dangerous route. Arvo had to have known a crossing or a safer way, seeing as how it was a hideout they probably had before the winter.

In the comic, she basically arrived as "hurr durr strong woman with katana and ninja skills." She was so one-dimensional that it was painful and it was so contrived that she didn't kill the Governor when she had the chance. Like, you didn't expect him to come back after the shit you pulled?

Kirkman tried really hard to make her more rounded but failed miserably.

Also, dat pic. Seriously the reason why I never took Negan seriously.

>>26319

The last issue I read was 101 or 102, when Andrea revealed to Rick that they captured some dude from Negan's crew and a nasty interrogation was implied.

This may not pertain to the conversation, but Imma say this cuz this pissed me off. You're right, you DO steal the pistol regardless, and fuck TTG for that. That means that there was no reason for a choice, no reason to give the player drama. Hell, it may be worse than how Sarah was handled. The player says, "No, I will not steal" and it leads to the same scenario in the end with no significant changes.

I forgot where, I think it was SXSW, but I remember telltale saying something about creating new characters when they make games so it gives them more creative freedom. Like how TWD takes place in the same universe as the comic but features new original characters, or how they made a new house for their Game of Thrones game. Do you think they'll do this for the Marvel game, creating a new character for us to play as rather than having us play as a well known character? If so I hope this new character is made by Marvel rather than Telltale themselves. I actually think it'd be neat if Marvel is using this game as a means of introducing a new character before getting their own comic, or having the game tie into their comic.

I asked people to find flaws in season 1's writing last thread, and I think I found another one. Where did Clementine get a hammer to help Lee with? I can't imagine Clem having a real hammer in her treehouse, she had to have found it in the house after going to get food or something or maybe Sandra gave it to her to defend herself. Maybe it was lying around because the treehouse was still under construction, but I doubt that since Clem's parents were on vaction at the time.

So I remembered that TWD comics have a Q&A section at the end. I'm gonna post the latest issue's Q&A because there's a few questions in there that are very similar to what I've wondered in the past.

The question near the end of this page about people with psychological problems made me think of Vernon's cancer group. But then I got thinking, what if Crawford had survived? They had some pretty crazy ideas, including their "no children" policy. But how would that even be remotely sustainable? What did they plan to do in a few years when everyone was old? Was it more of a temporary thing that they planned to do until the ZA blew over?

Perhaps their no children/sick people policy was the start of some crazy eugenics program instead. You'd think people would be opposed to such ideas, but there's countless instances of cults IRL convincing people to commit mass suicide or terrorist acts. Would a cult leader in TWD actually fare better than a more moral, levelheaded leader like Rick, due to their ruthlessness?

>>26383

Yeah, I agree with this. It's so minor, I wouldn't even consider it a flaw.

Skipping the second page because it's either just wanking Kirkman off about how great he is, or talking about the comic's story.

There's two interesting questions on this page, though. I've mentioned farming in the past in the context of Wellington. This guy from Denver seems to know better than me about agriculture, leading me to believe that sustaining a large settlement like Wellington using only agriculture is probably a massive effort. Either Wellington would need to dedicate a lot of land inside their walls to crops, or they'd have to have crops outside the walls, but that would expose them to attack. Maybe Wellington's location was chosen because they can just fish on Lake Erie to make up for agricultural shortages. In fact, maybe Wellington was formed from some sort of fishing community; that'd be neat.

The other person here mentions the tide and how zombies might be attracted to the ocean. While I suspect this person's question is a bit tongue-in-cheek, it also made me think about methods of getting rid of zombies. In the show, the Governor has that weird wind-powered pit trap which seems fairly effective. Do you think people might object to the concept of trapping and killing zombies en masse? They were people, after all.

He asked if he should have bought S2 when it was on sale and I explained to him that he's probably better off ending his experience at S1 for now, and suggested TftB instead.

Did I do good? Would a casual player like him care about the issues we pick out with S2?

I've also wondered myself about suggesting S2 to people. I'm leaning towards what you told your friend and telling fans to skip S2 for now. That might change depending on how S3 turns out and/or how dependent it is on S2's story.

>Would a casual player like him care about the issues we pick out with S2?

If he really enjoyed S1 then he'd have to care to some degree about S2's flaws because those would affect his enjoyment of its story. The difference may come with how forgiving or dismissive he may be of those flaws. People in general seem to agree that S2 was weaker than S1 but a lot of people also liked the game anyway. I think it mostly has to do with players loving certain aspects (Kenny in the latter half of the S2 being the biggest contender) enough they can forgive the bad shit and partly with gamers being generally forgiving of bad or mediocre writing. As bored and exasperated as I was thorough most the season, Kenny's role and arc in the last two episodes had such emotional weight that I was actually shaking at the end. Your mileage may vary (and I suspect people who really can't stand Kenny enjoy S2 significantly less than people who at least understand his character) but that was the season's one saving grace and it's what made me unsure about telling TWDG fans to miss out on S2.

>>26397

I didn't like her much either but even if she was written out S2 would still be sub-par. There's other big underlying problems there.

I'd say just play it yourself but if you really can't wait a day and want to get into the discussion asap then by all means watch a playthrough. Try and watch a no commentary if you can since LPers can potentially influence first time audience's opinions on a game.

I think a casual player would not even notice most of season 2's flaws, I know I didn't. If they had them pointed out to them, they still might not care unless they're actually as into the story as we are.

>>26397

If only because of the ending. If she had disappeared after helping the group escape Carver's, or didn't come back in episode 5, it still would've been a shit season.

It's not that I'll be getting the game a day late, it's that I can't even play it the day I can get it. I always watch no commentary playthroughs of games, because I don't want to hear someone else's voice over the game, especially with games like this.

It's a shame. It's like they've accepted that it's their M.O. I've always thought that if our choices didn't matter, they'd might as well just make game as is, without choices. Lee is dead regardless, everyone (sans Jane and Kenny, being determinant) ends up dead or missing. That being said, S2 of TWD is the biggest offender, with the most egregious examples happening in the later episodes.

Basically, if choices don't matter, don't give us choices in the first place.

Sure, but take a look at the stealing from Arvo scene. Yeah it leads to the tense shootout, but it didn't matter what choice you selected. I know I hark on the scene a lot, but that was really the epitome of this problem.

It's like the writers got stupid lazy and tried to trick the player that the hard decision meant something. Although, I admit the final decision in S2 MAY have some weight to it in the long run. Hopefully. Probably not.


 No.26441

>>26440

The biggest flaw of that whole situation is that people who didn't steal the meds felt cheated when Arvo accused them of stealing. Yeah, you took the gun, whatever. But it could have been written in a way where your choices felt like they mattered.

Consider this:

Arvo was unarmed (so no stealing the gun) and the choice was between stealing the bag or not. Rebecca desperately needs medication, providing motivation for stealing the bag. Since Arvo isn't a threat without a gun, he can leave unmolested if you choose so.

If you steal the meds, Rebecca lives longer, but Arvo's group ambushes you as usual, accusing you of stealing.

If you don't, Rebecca dies earlier, perhaps during childbirth. Arvo's group still attacks you, but now they just seem like bandits after your supplies, without the medicine pretense.

These are relatively minor changes overall. Rebecca still dies, and there's still an armed conflict. But the context makes much more sense. Both types of players would at least initially regret their choice; the people who didn't steal might resent the fact that they showed goodwill towards the meek-looking Arvo who ended up robbing them later anyways, and the people who did steal would regret angering him. Each side would have a seemingly different experience, even though ultimately their choice didn't really matter.

The choices I described are just something I took like 2 minutes to come up with. I'm sure there's other great alternatives.

I'd like more changes, but this is the bare minimum I would have liked. It's a simple fix and I like it


 No.26443

>>26442

Yeah, it's simple but effective. As it stands now, you gain absolutely nothing by taking the meds. I took them initially, and I was pretty mad to find out that Rebecca survives just as long without them.

Taking the meds could also affect Arvo's sister somehow, too. In fact, I wish Arvo's sister played a bigger role, perhaps not dying in the shootout, but a bit later. The shootout was too busy for her death to be of any emotional impact. Her dying later might give people reason to sympathize with Arvo.

Gonna sleep early, job starts tomorrow.

I think what REALLY ruined Season 2 more than anything else was just how the cabin group left Carver's camp to go in some arbitrary direction. Most of them had escaped before, so they knew how to get back to the cabin. Not only that, but since they had already made the trek to Moonstar Lodge, FROM the cabin they lost the opportunity to have electricity, a good lookout point, and a good amount of food and supplies. They literally walked away from the best option they could ask for in exchange for the option that got their entire group killed, simply because Telltale.

If anything I think season 2 should've focused on Clementine's journey to Wellington. It's where she was headed with Christa at the beginning of the game so it makes sense for the story to be about getting there. Instead we get an entirely one note story where the group head into a new area, bad shit happens to them, then they go to another place, rinse and repeat. The game has nothing to do with getting to Wellington until the very end, where most people are discouraged to go there because of an in the moment decision that provides a permanent solution to a temporary problem, rather than a choice where we have time to think about it rationally, and consider everything up until that point. On top of that, even if you do make it to Wellington, it's done through a timeskip, meaning we don't get to see the actual journey there. The game establishes Wellington as the goal, but doesn't focus on going there, most players didn't go there, and the ones that did didn't get to see the actual journey there.

That's a great way to put it. I was seriously skeptical that we would ever see Wellington in Season 2, but lo and behold, you come across it at the very end of the game after a timeskip. I didn't feel like I accomplished anything, it just seemed lazy.

I'd honestly agree that advising someone on S2 would be contingent on what happens in S3, or how much someone is willing to play S2 despite being far worse in comparison.

>>26421

See >>26422

If another company does this same format, but makes your decisions actually matter, Telltale is screwed.

Alpha Protocol did this, but it sold poorly and will not be getting an awesome sequel where you live with the consequences of your decisions.

>>26440

>>26441

There is a point in that the scene made players think "wow, I did the right thing and got fucked," which can happen in real life. If that was their angle, though, they did it very poorly. All they had to do was have Arvo's group jump out and attack them for their supplies. Motive? Just to take their shit, or get back at them for threatening Arvo. That would have made sense, but the writers didn't think so. The medicine decision was flat out pointless.

The ending decisions in S2 are really morally gray and it really comes down to player decision, and actually made up for all of the bullshit in the season by giving us radically different endings. I still don't forgive any assholes that saved Jane without realizing that she had done something with the baby and put it in danger just to prove a point.

>>26442

The fact that the medicine does absolutely nothing was really shameful. I didn't take the medicine at first because I thought back to Clementine and the Stranger, but come the fuck on, Telltale.

>>26460

The entire second season felt utterly pointless. The writers did not have the same focus as Season 1 and Breckon is a terrible writer and lacks the ability to direct others.

I think the only major thing I took away from Season 2 was that what you taught Clem as Lee and what Christa taught her as well (and I was fucking furious that we got a 2 year timeskip with nothing in between) made her into a proper survivor. From the get-go, I recognized that the new characters were the zombie apocalypse equivalent of spoiled children. At least with my Clem, I taught her not to be a victim, and she learned early on that settlements make you a huge target. There is a definite contrast similar to the comic: Rick and his group were vicious wanderers while the Alexandrians were softies living in comfort and did not understand how the world worked outside their walls. In MANY ways beyond knowledge of sex, Clementine really is more of an adult than the cabin group, and Christa doesn't get enough props for teaching Clementine how to survive on her own.

Settlements come and go with politics and war. The only reason Kirkman is switching over to settlements in the comics is because he ran out of ideas..

Okay, despite the episode's length, it was still a good episode, and that allows me to look past it being shorter. I think the problem with season 2 of TWD, wasn't just shorter episode length, it's that they were shitty short episodes. This episode was 90 minutes, but it was good so I can accept it's length.

>>26508

>The ending decisions in S2 are really morally gray and it really comes down to player decision, and actually made up for all of the bullshit in the season by giving us radically different endings.

I would agree with this if they had handled the endings better. Like I said before they want you to make a decision in the heat of the moment instead of thinking about it rationally. As it is, I would've preferred if they had Clementine end up at Wellington no matter what, with the final choice deciding who you ended up at Wellington with. It would've maintained the status quo of season 2, and we would've been spared all these stupid Kenny vs. Jane fights.

>I still don't forgive any assholes that saved Jane without realizing that she had done something with the baby and put it in danger just to prove a point.

Even worse are the assholes who killed Kenny after he kills Jane. Fuck Telltale for even thinking of including that option.

I think the S2 ending was good in my opinion because it at least gave us very different choices. 5 endings including variations is pretty nice. Thematically, you're more correct and would have brought the story full circle. I think the writers for S2 changed things around way too much in response to player feedback and predictions, and just generally lacked a main skeleton that they should have stuck to. Everything just felt jumbled and there was so much wasted potential. No hubs, barely any character development, pointless deaths, and contrived conflicts.

I don't know about you, but most of my decisions were made rationally. That's how I played my Lee, and is also the reason I thought him getting bitten was bullshit because I fucking KNEW that there could/would be a zombie under the garbage, and that's one of the things he would have tried to teach Clem. Be rational.

> Kenny x Jane conflict

So stupid. I didn't even think the Kenny-Luke relationship was realistic and it started to make Luke look like a weird pedophile who didn't want anyone butting into the leadership role. I wanted an option to shoot Jane and was angry that there was not.

Same. I had Kenny's survival spoiled for me before I played season 1, so I was kinda obligated to side with him in season 1, but I think I would've sided with him regardless because his ideas always made sense. There are very few decisions I made that I actually regret.

I sided with Lilly in my first playthrough and hated Kenny. Then I found out that CPR can't help someone who is suffering from cardiac arrest - it only sustains blood flow until a defibrillator unit can try to restart the heart, and even those don't work 100%. With that in mind, I re-did the game and generally did everything else the same except for the meat locker and Kenny was a total bro.

At least Kenny's reaction to it was "I needed your support in a fucked up situation." Lilly just starts accusing you of awful shit and treats you way worse than Kenny did for your decision.

>>26516

Because he's awkwardly attached to and protective of Clementine. I understand why Luke brought her with him to the bridge (Alvin is useless, Carlos is their doctor, Nick is mopey and in poor spirits), but Luke got really weird when Kenny came into the mix for no apparent reason.

Not to mention Kenny is more of a friend to you than anyone else you can side with in season 1 if you have his back.

>Alvin is useless

Now that you mention it, I think it would've been better for Luke to take Alvin with him on the bridge. It would've avoided the problem of treating Clementine like an adult, and given us a mini-hub of sorts where we could get to know the cabin group briefly before Clem has to run over to the bridge to help Alvin and Luke.

Yeah, that's what I understood as their motive and I agree it was poorly executed.

>I didn't take the medicine at first

I took that shit because I thought Arvo was lying about his sister and was just some tweaker.

I was a little surprised that I was wrong, but the game doesn't really do a good job of bringing your attention to that detail.

>>26510

I agree with your first statement, but them's fightin' words.

>>26514

>also the reason I thought him getting bitten was bullshit

I'm glad you brought that up. I also thought that was bullshit the first time through, it seemed incredibly contrived. Especially the hat just lying around like that. I guess that's one thing that bothers me about S1.

I guess you could explain the hat lying there as Clem being clever enough to drop it, knowing Lee or someone would find it and know something was wrong.

>I wanted an option to shoot Jane

I really don't understand why it wasn't a 50/50 choice between shooting Kenny or Jane. It might be a little cliche, especially since it was so prevalent in S1, but since they went for a completely contrived conflict between them anyways, they might as well have gone all the way.

For a second I thought you two were discussing AJ, but then I realized he wasn't born yet and you were talking about the actual Alvin.

 No.26529

I did not believe Arvo for a fucking minute, but he didn't look like a tweaker, and he was a literal cripple who managed to survive in the zombie apocalypse for ~2 years. Someone was looking out for him and I didn't want to piss them off, so I gave him the medicine back. I figured that, at that point in time, making enemies was not a good idea.

The whole bite sequence WAS stupid and contrived. After Lee jumped the fence and at first sight of the hat and radio, next to a convenient pile of trash, I literally paused the game and said "if this is a scene where Lee is supposed to get bitten, I am going to freak the fuck out." I didn't freak out as bad as I would have if I was alone and it wasn't, like, 2 AM. I figured there would be a zombie there and then I was right.

When the player is smarter than the character, and it's with really obvious shit like walkers being literally EVERYWHERE (if the fucking sewers didn't teach you anything), it's infuriating.

Alvin was the most useless character in the whole season and I sincerely did not care when he died in my playthrough. Honestly, if there was an option to negotiate with Carver to only get Sarita out and then get the fuck out, I would have done it. Once Carver shows up, I figured Clem would be safer without them.

Also, I keep my Clem love to myself and my lucid dreams and out of threads.

Because the developers really wanted you to side against Kenny at the end despite giving him the good endings.

You're either with some crazy bitch who literally abandoned a baby to start a fight with Kenny and "make a point" about how "psychotic" Kenny is after she said nothing about how babies were useless and should be left behind, or someone who has ALWAYS looked out for your well-being.

If you hated Kenny and wanted to go solo, fine, but I seriously cannot wrap my head around people who defend Jane.

It's one of the reasons the roleplay group is filled with plebs: they're all Janefags.

Yeah, "better" might be a better (heh) word to use since Clem isn't exactly completely safe in any of the endings. On one hand, Kenny will always protect Clem & AJ no matter what, but it's a dangerous world out there, who knows what can happen to them? It might be safer for Clem in Wellington, but none of the people know her. They have no obligation to keep her safe, outside of perhaps her being a child.
