Damn, that's a tough call. Regardless of who you are when you have to save them, you're more obligated to save who's closer to you, but saving the other will improve your relationship with the other PC. I have a feeling Sasha will be determinant, and the choice to let her "fall" in episode 3 was foreshadowing for it.

>>27745

Did you forget that the Michonne DLC takes place during her absence in the comics? And that she was found alone? There's no way any new characters introduced in this DLC will survive.

I was actually about to say this. It's been a long time since anyone has said good night when they leave.

We've picked apart and bitched about S2 a lot here but now I want to ask you guys what you liked about it, even if it's just little things. Let's face it, while S2 was disappointing I know you guys enjoyed some parts of it.

1. Despite the way she was generally handled her I think Clementine had some great moments. Sassing the adults, especially Rebecca, in the first episode was fun. All the little moments where she'd scrunch at whatever an adult said or did was cute and made her seem like an actual child. On the flip side her staying to watch Carver's death was done really well also, and watching her face distort from childlike revolt to grim determination to hatred was a cool character defining moment to me.

2. The climax and the ending were some of the few times the game elicited strong emotions out of me. The final confrontation was genuinely distressing and frightening. Clementine felt like a helpless child rather than the Cleminator, as she could do nothing to stop these two mad adults. Kenny was particularly so scary in that scene that I actually remained afraid him after Clem found AJ (sidenote: the look of weariness on Clem's face before she hugged Kenny was a great touch and mirrored my feelings as we reluctantly trusted him.) The ending at Wellington was was great and left me physically trembling as I watched Kenny walk off into the distance and Clem go into her strange new home. Kenny's arc in the last two episodes was just great.

2. Sarah's death really fucked me up, I realized too late she was one of the few CG members I cared for and at the time I was angry at Jane for "letting her die". I think her death at the observation post was handled poorly and the sudden tone shift to everyone being happy about the new baby was jarring, but it was one of the few times I felt really bad about a cabin members death.

3. The confrontation with Walter was one of the most intense moments I've experienced in TWDG. I was torn at what to say as I saw there was no obvious or easy way to resolve the situation. The way Walter, this kind former schoolteacher, became unraveled as learned the details of his partner's death was tragic, frightening, and brilliant.

4. It was great fun talking about the recent episode while predicting the next. Despite the frustration I felt when the game would drop an interesting ploline or kill a potentially great character, it always had me hotly anticipating what would happen next. There's more I feel I could say but I need to replay S2 to refresh my memory.


 No.27754

Just replayed The Walking Dead seasons 1 and 2 again.

2 isn't that bad, but I don't understand why I can't like the characters the same way I liked the characters from season 1.

Even though Larry is a dick the entire time I still prefer him to every season 2 character except Kenny.


 No.27755

>>27754

S2 never really gave you time to get to know your fellow survivors. You're always moving from scene to scene, set-piece to set-piece. There are very few moments you get to just recover, talk to others, and think about whatever crazy or tragic event just happened. It didn't help either that the other characters didn't seem to care that much whenever one of them died. You might like them but you're never given a reason to care about them.

Compare that to S1 where whole hubs were dedicated to talking to your fellow survivors in wake of what just happened. Those were some of the game's strongest moments. The reason you might care about Larry more than any of the cabin group is that you could talk to him and see why he behaved the way he did (out of concern for his daughter and Clementine), and his death was given weight and had a tremendous impact on the characters.

>I have a feeling Sasha will be determinant, and the choice to let her "fall" in episode 3 was foreshadowing for it.

So do I but given how Telltale's handled determinant characters post-S1 I hope it isn't true.


 No.27757

>>27753

I thought about doing something like this some time. I agree that Clementine's character was handled better in episode 1. It's the only episode where I actually feel like I'm playing as Clementine. There isn't a single moment in my opinion where Clementine is out of character in that episode, even when she's being mean. And the hub where you're looking for food in the camp with Sam is one of my favorite parts of the game.

The Kenny endings, especially the one where you stay at Wellington, were also great. They're the only parts of the game that made me cry, and the only parts of the game that I would consider emotional on the level of something from season 1.

Up until they decided to do nothing with Sarah and have her die no matter what, I liked that she was pretty much the only character in the game whose interactions with you are different depending how you treat her, the biggest thing of course being whether or not you choose to be her friend. I really thought she was built up well and that she was going to play an important part in Clem's development. That's not what happened obviously, but I'm trying to remain positive for this.

I liked episode 4 for being the one with the most with actual gameplay, including an actual puzzle. It felt like an episode of season one in terms of how balanced things were between the gameplay and cutscenes. And the hubs, though not of season 1 quality, didn't feel like filler.

I also agree with you that speculating about what was gonna happen next was fun, even if there was a lack of focus and rewrites bringing the season down.

>>27754

Maybe season 2 isn't as bad as we say, and it's the environment of /ttgg/ that makes me feel it is. I guess if I could describe it in a more balanced way, at it's best it's mediocre, at it's worst it's something I don't ever want to revisit.

Stauffer did tweet these those mock "not-spoilers" suggesting things are going to go bad on Helios so who knows. I kind of hope something like that does happen. I love those moments where the hero are at there most vulnerable, especially if they're characteristically cocky and confident like Rhys..

I listen to internet radio at work, and this ad came on.

Maybe Vasquez started his Hyperion career as an auto parts salesman. The way he says "it's vintage" at the end even sounds like something Vasquez would say.

Hello anon.

I am, but honestly not quite as much as I have been for past episodes. I'm not really sure why. Maybe because this new villain and the threat they present didn't quite grab me. I am looking forward to what the game does with Vaughn ever since I heard the theory that he might be turning into a Psycho. Probably not true but I do like those crazy but semi-pluasible sounding fan theories.

Do you have any predictions for the nest episode?


 No.27768

>>27767

I like what the anon said earlier, about Sasha becoming determinant. I think we will have to pick between her and help/money/whatever. I hope we will catch up with the current time early in the episode. I'm worried about what they'll do to Vaughn. But either way I am very excited to play it.


 No.27769

>>27768

I'm not totally sure she (or Vaughn) will become determinate the next episode, but I do see point where Jack will force Rhys to choose between him and his friends. They are going to Helios so I wonder he might try to pull once he's back at Hyperion.

I was on old /ttgg/

I was here for a bit but got spooked off by some of the shitposting which I won't describe for fear of derailing things. That was when there was nothing happening with GoT or Borderlels so discussion was dry as a popcorn fart.
