Season 2 was a mistake, they should have went with Luke vs Kenny like from the beginning. Jane would have made a much better sacrifice during the thin ice scene whilst putting intense strain on Luke's relationship towards Kenny.

it's like the writers forgot how to create narrative and character development, or probably didn't have any knowledge of in the first place considering this was the "b team".

Jane was fine as a foil to Kenny. Kenny was obsessed with tribalism and having a core group and Jane was very much an individualist trying to convince herself that there was no point in caring for other people because they will fail you.

Both are complete scumbags. Kenny was perfectly happy to sacrifice people outside his group to get a shot at killing Carver and was trying to sabotage Carver's base and let the zombies in.

Jane stole from Arvo's only means of protection and intentionally left him helpless against zombies and was kept telling you not to stick your neck out for people who won't take care of themselves.

I don't think Walking Dead of all series needs you to have a binary morality choice.

Both Jane and Kenny were shit, but by the end of it I still stood by Kenny. You know, because he didn't leave a fucking baby out in the goddamn cold!

I kept expecting to eventually have Jane tell us she didn't have to leave her sister behind, but that she did it so she wouldn't die.

Jane's willingness to be friendly to wards us would've made more sense if we were just a second chance for her to actually save someone.

If I knew nothing else about Kenny the fact that /v/ has all but canonized him would've been enough for me to be sure he was a shit.
On the plus side it's thanks to him that I call people "shitbirds" now.
Either way he'll die at the start of season 3 even if you saved him because Telltale. Jane too.

really season 2 just showed that without the emotional manipulation of season 1 they just can't keep an audience

I doubt they will kill him because he and Clem are all they have to manipulate the old fans of the series, cut them out and they have no grounds of a fandom.
Bluntly my issues with TTG is they suck at narrative at a Quantum Dream level.

>never go back to strip it's engine for parts

I mean for fucksakes this is what I expect out of a middle school writing not someone that's paid for it.
>>
>>87654406
I don't see how anyone could defend TWD's writing besides "muh emotions" Even in season 1, the plot was pretty directionless and it just killed off people at random. And we all know season 2 was a fucking trainwreck. What was the appeal here?

Kenny was also constantly beating a kid for almost no reason. He gets an extended death scene with sad music. Most people chose to shoot him anyway. It's safe to say that the narrative was biased against him.

I dunno about /v/, but after sticking with Kenny for most of S1 and finally having him and Ben go off at each other in ep5 and then square things out was amazing. Easily my favourite scene in that game.

They might not, keep in mind that TTGs reputation is slowly getting worse. The Batman game while receiving good sales isn't getting good word of mouth, actually most are doing worse then disliking it and are just saying it's forgettable.

What the bad reputation? Nah that was at the mess of season 2 and the super delay of Wolf Among Us. Game of Thrones further pushed dislike and the Minecraft story mode more or less just went under the radar because again like Batman it was not offensive but completely forgettable.
What's really happening is they are becoming a one trick pony and basically whatever is your first TTG played you can say you have played them all.

I played my Lee to try to save everyone every time even when they were shitbirds like Ben and I transferred that over to Clem in Season 2. That is, until Sarah. I tried to take her under my wing. Be her big little sister and even saved her the first time when she almost got us all killed and Jane was talking all kinds of shit. I just couldn't be bothered to try when the deck collapsed even though she was screaming for me to save her. I think that was a good moment of development even if the circumstances surrounding it were retarded.
>>
>>87663571
Season 2 plays better if you played Lee as a hardass who cared about his people and didn't tolerate shitheads like Ben or crazies like those cannibals.

>just couldn't be bothered to try when the deck collapsed even though she was screaming for me to save her.

Anyone. Lee doesn't really have a character. He's a blatant surrogate.
>>
>>87654406
which Lee?
The asshole, the pussy or the realist?
>>
>>87663588
If by "didn't tolerate" you mean "didn't let live", no I tolerated him until the game decided he could no longer be tolerated, but that doesn't mean I just let him get away scot free for being retarded. I also butchered the cannibals and abandoned that murderous bitch. Kenny hated me the entire game for not caving the old man's skull, even though I saved his kid and sided with him in the drugstore. I actually liked Lee's complicated relationship with him for the rest of the game because of that.

>>87663613
I put a lot of effort into saving Sarah the first time and almost got everyone killed trying to do it. And that time there wasn't even anything physically restraining her. The second time was even more fucked, and I could no longer justify risking other people's lives to save her, throwing good money after bad, so to speak. I guess Carver was right. We weren't so different, me and him.
>>
>>87663661
She could have easily been saved the second time though. Even if you get Jane to go in and try to help her, she just goes "meh" and gives up. Fuck this dumb writing.
>>
>>87663668
From what I can tell, Jane's a weak piece of shit and is only good at rogue talents. She shouldn't have been the one they sent down anyway.
>>
>>87663661
I like complicated but it never added up.You could side against or for Kenny all the way up to the salt block but that one choice forged you're friendship with him which is unrealistic as fuck, more so if you sympathized with his actions(right for the wrong reasons) or even the flip and was begging to toss his kids to the zombies but you agreed on salt drop. Even all the way to Clem getting kidnapped, if you don't show your bite he will basically abandon Clem all because of a single issue he had with Lee.
That was always my issue with TTG Walking Dead all the way up to the end was they clearly had a single vision but hope you just played that very specif way to the end and if you didn't the whole story was just put on it's side and made no sense.

It's just bad writing through and through
>>
>>87663692
But what happens is that she can lift her up but there's a board on her. She lifts up the board and she freaks out for a second. Instead of pushing the board to the side and pulling her up, she just leaves the board in the same position and then gives up.

Or just send someone else down, yeah.

Almost every death in TWD is contrived as fuck. Carley also comes to mind.

Carley is a victim of lazy writing where the whole scene was made for Doug's death first but they didn't want to copy paste it with Carley but they didn't have the convection to make it completely unique/believable so she basically gets executed because Lilly suddenly hates her. Frankly I rather have had a clone of Doug's death where she blocks the shot with her body and dies the hero like Doug did.

This is a flaw of the writing once again but it's implied that Jane stole his medicine from him even if you tell her not to. Also, you killed his entire group (somehow without a single person in yours dying) and kept him around just to beat him.

There's no real way to justify this, Anon.
>>
>>87665386
>Also, you killed his entire group (somehow without a single person in yours dying)

That was weird. They kill your companions in all sort of bullshit ways, but the one time you expect some of your mates to be killed, they all survive without a scratch.
>>
>>87665412
Realistically, that would have never happened. They were all standing out in the open.
>>
>>87665439
They could have killed Luke or Nick in that scene, but then you wouldn't have a reason to hate Bonnie and Sarah for getting them killed.
>>
>>87665505
I don't think Sarah got Nick killed. Even then, that's optional. I hate how Telltale plays around with realism in its (lack of) storytelling when it's so divisive at other times.
>>
>>87665532
Nick only died (at least in my playthrough) because he was one of the people who went after Sarah to save her.

Her imbecility got him killed.
>>
>>87665576
I don't think that's made a point or anything though. Season 2 just kind of forgot half of its characters before it killed them.

It was definitely bad writing, I'm just sick of people giving Kenny shit for wanting to kill Arvo. Speaking of bad writing, when Black guy and Bonnie later decide to join this kid who tried to rob/kill your group because Kenny is supposedly too much to deal with still makes me mad
>>
>>87665757
>I'm just sick of people giving Kenny shit for wanting to kill Arvo.
He literally just wanted his medicine back and got his friends killed. Then he constantly gets beaten. There's no way to defend this especially since he never just shoots him.

I don't know, Anon. This whole game is dumb so it's hard to have an actual debate on character motivations without flat-out just criticizing the writing.
>>
Season 2 was fucked from the beginning. You make a choice, the game is dumb for treating a child like an adult.

You make a choice and it's overruled because you're a child. It's dumb for doing that too.
>>
>>87665835
>He literally just wanted his medicine back and got his friends killed
>therefor it's ok for him to bring his armed goons to rob/murder you
Realistically Arvo's group would have gotten most of you killed and left the rest of you to freeze to death without supplies in the snowstorm,
but you know...

I knew this about as long as I've known Kenny, and this was the entire reason I was nice to Kenny as Clem, despite being a dick to him as Lee. Pure self interest.

I'm just saying it's understandable for them to do it in the first place and that Arvo wasn't always a shitbird.

Yeah, but Kenny said that Jane fucked off with their shit and showed contempt for her. It's not like she could have still been with the group because where the fuck where would she be? The group didn't even have anything on them at that point anyway so there'd be no reason for them to attack other than something contrived- like a zombie waking up near a baby and some stupidly shooting it instead of running over to get it.

Most gameplay-free games that get praised for "good writing" are SJWish indie games.

Telltale doesn't fit into that category, so why do they keep getting a free pass after year of doing the same thing over and over?
>>
>>87661051
I did it on my first playthrough.
Turns out it could've worked if Lee would've amputated it sooner. Then again none of them knew about it at that point.

I decided to opt against it on my second, and decided to amputate it again on my most recent playthrough in preparation for S3.

If you really look at it Lee's arc was meant to teach Clementine. About survival, morality, walkers... Since Lee dies either way, it's better for him to teach Clem one last thing about the pathogen I figured.

It's like Jane said. You can push people for whatever length you want, but if they're just simply unwilling there'll come a time when you can't do that anymore.

'Sheltered' people are the worst. It's not really Sarah's fault but walkers outnumber people 10 to 1. Everyone needs to know how to survive or they'll drag down everyone else with them.

It really doesn't do anything for three of the episodes. I played them all in a row (I usually buy my Telltale games on sale) and from episode 2-4 it's just "how much can you get shit on while nothing happens."

So pretty much like a regular season of game of thrones. The ending was interesting though, far more chaotic and brutal than I was expecting.

True, that's some of my feel. I stopped playing it after brother comes from foreign land with mercs.
It felt like a slog. Chained legs in middle of winter level.
Only Telltale moment I had with that was episode of Walking Dead, when you're on that farm with cannibals. Slow, slow, slow and then it gets into hilarious five minutes when you put them in the ground.

I never sided with Jane. I killed her on my first playthrough. But unfortunately she was right about unwilling people. The devs wanted to force you into the same situation she was in with her sister. Which was Sarah's arc basically.

And she dies either way. So what it really comes down is to whether you want Clem to grow into Sweet pea Clem and save her or just accept fate and have her become Edgy Clem.

They way I see it is basically:

S1's purpose was to teach Clem about the fundamental basics of the new walker infested world
S2 was about how'd she put her skills into practice when there's no Lee around to guide her
S3 is going to be about how all the emotial baggage and moral choices she made affected her, plus now she has to be a mom for Alvin jr too
>>
>>87666731
Yes.
>>87666779
Choices don't matter.
>>
>>87666779
but they don't matter, short of blurp here and there nothing you do for Clem effects the new season and they never will have the balls to do it because people who have never played the previous seasons will feel cheated that they are block out of certain outcomes or actions.
That's why most games are chicken shit about choices matter
>>
>>87666731
It has some good moments but is overall disappointing. Weird characterization of most characters.

4chan hiveminds about the choice at the end pretty hard so if you're interested in playing that season get the fuck out of here before you spoil it.

>>87663510
But Jack shouldn't have been trusted, the last episode proved that pretty definitively.

In fact, even without the last episode in the rear view, you'd be a fucking moron to trust Jack, because he's fucking Jack. I was a buddy to the guy, but I never gave him a fucking inch, because he's a manipulative murderous sociopathic, psychopathic, demagogue, with delusions of grandeur.

>>

Telltale options are unclear and weirdly concise all the time, and the context was the Woodman talking about getting a free drink occasionally. It's a reasonable mistake to make.

>>87667142
>potentially stick around and ruin more stuff for me.
Still too many choices.
>>
>>87667144
I still think it's weird to assume "glass him" is anything but "glassing him". If it was that was it, it would have been "buy drink" or something.
>>
>>87667272
I don't really hear "glass" used in that context... ever, really. Is it a regional thing?
Merriam-Webster's first definition for "glass" as a verb is "to provide with glass".

y'know I used to really like Jane but after looking at the endings where I chose her over Kenny I can't help but dislike her, even when you shoot Kenny or chose to abandon him it seems like the first thing in his mind is Clem's and the baby's safety. Kenny might be an angry idiot most of the time but it looked like he was making an effort to change, Jane seemed too comfortable with the person she had become and the only reason she seemed so attached to Clem was because she wanted someone that could validate her new way of being.

I enjoyed the first playthrough, but then like with TWD you start to notice how terrible the writing is, that nearly no choice matters in the slightest and how the plot fucks you in the ass no matter what you do. The traitor plot point being the worst example of it, we have one character that wants to kill every Whitehill around and another one who had his family killed by them yet one of them will betray you to the Whitehills if you don't make them the sentinel.

I think it should have been a self contained story where depending on your choices you either kill all Whitehills fucking shits but lose everyone in the family or either save the family but lose the castle. Ending it in a cliffhanger was a mistake since knowing Telltale only the ones that survive in every possible ending will end up doing anything in a potential season 2.

Also, Rodrik and Asher were the only good playable characters.
>>
>>87667436
Kenny's endings are great but going with him is a gamble. First you have no idea if the place that you're going to even exists. Then you have almost no food, and Kenny is clearly unstable...even if he's "better."

Then there's the fact that his answer to "zombies attacked me and I lost the baby" is to start beating on the the person that got attacked by the zombie.

But no matter what ending you choose the baby should still die. You didn't have enough food for it for either trip.
>>
>>87667500
>I think it should have been a self contained story where depending on your choices you either kill all Whitehills fucking shits but lose everyone in the family or either save the family but lose the castle.
I lost my family and the castle except for my younger sister and brother, and it seemed like that was the primary ending no matter what your choices were. I suppose I could have misread the wiki but I was curious so I looked up all the other endings.

The baby should survive if you choose to stay in Wellington given that they probably have enough supplies and "baby" necessities.

That baby is dead, I guarantee it. I did give Clem her badass moment by abandoning Jane (spoiler alert: I killed Kenny) and have her nonsensically walk off on her own with him to take on the walkers solo. It's retarded but I figure it's the natural progression when you side with Jane, the irony being that after all her talk Jane realizes she needs another person, but all the stuff she's been telling you up until then finally adds up for you and you realize you don't need HER.

But yeah, none of it really matters. It's all flavor. The events will play out roughly the same regardless of what you "choose", you just (theoretically) get more emotionally invested when you get to choose how a character reacts. I often found myself thinking about what my Lee/Clem would say based on what's already happened. I learned after the first game that your choices ultimately don't make a difference, but I guess the roleplaying aspect keeps me from being to upset about it.

Exactly. They're a constant, relevant threat.

Zombies are only a threat in Walking Dead outside of villain arcs. Otherwise they're just there to drive home urgency.

Yes Savannah wasn't know to Clem till Lee told her on the train when it was already in motion for an undisclosed mount of time. We have no clue where the Stranger was but we do know by car with no stops it would take over 3 hours by car and an hour and a half by train to reach Savannah from Atalanta(assuming they were even in the city then, could have been shorter).
This leaves only one possibility which is the Stranger was fucking crazy and left for Savannah for reasons unknown (Remember the original plan was Kenny's boat which was at Brunswick)

Face it the writers were fucking stupid and planned nothing out.

I kinda want to see where the Geth and Quarian go canonically, but from what I heard mutual genocide is canon.

Also, always want to see more exploration of the Asari. ME2 and 3 dropped interest in them hard, but ME1 had a lot to explore.

As far as characters go, I'm almost certain Liara will show up. Considering she's Best Girl, that's the way it ought to be.

Also, I think 2 and 3 sucked for new characters (other than Grunt for the most part, maybe Mordin) is because they put all their good ideas into the failed Star Wars MMO.

The Carley bullshit happened because originally the game was supposed to tie into the show, so they had to write it in such a way to introduce characters like Glenn and Lilly and be an origin for them. That's why things happened with Lilly the way they do, to set her up for her appearance into the show.

Then the show writers said "naw, do your own thing" and Kirkman gave show Lilly an entirely different origin and made her unimportant, so the game team was left going "well fuck, there went like half of our plans" and had to salvage everything they had for S1, and completely make up something new for S2. The DLC between the two was the last of their original plans all thrown together.
>>
>>87672867

Also because originally The Lilly from the game was supposed to be the same Lilly from the books (the one that kills Lori) and that was supposed to be her exit to explain how she ended up with The Governor.

But then they released a prequel book that gave Book!Lilly a completely different backstory so they decided to make Game!Lilly and Book!Lilly two completely different characters and it fucked up the whole narrative.

Fair enough. I just found most of 2's at least tolerable to enjoyable. I never found myself hating any of them except maybe Miranda and Ashely. And three made me chose from people I could give a shit less about. Speaking of which fuck Vega. I'd often just use Garrus and Tali.
And why do you think Liara is best girl? I keep hearing people say that but could never find the appeal.

Genocide ending was just an early rumor about Andromeda. Bioware's stance is nothing from ME3 will be made concrete canon, Andromeda moving forward will not involve it in any way.

The story for Andromeda begins before 3 when Earth was still normal, and really begins after leaving sometime after 3. But it won't go into what happened in 3.

That being said, Bioware has only said they won't confirm ending. They'll probably keep Geth and Quarians around as just one of the subplots, in order to keep using them.

Clem wasn't stupid, in fact, she was literally the only character with some goddamn sense in the entire game. She did everything she could to keep those gang of idiots happy and safe but they still treated her like shit and pushed her to the side. They had to have an 11 year old do everything for them, yet when it came to opinions and ideas, they ignored her. When the game starts the S2 group was willing to lock her in a shed and have her A.) bleed to death or B.) turn so they would cap her in the head. Clem didn't deserve any of that shit and then some.

welcome to the stupid writers of TTGs.
their fears were sound however sane people would respond one of two ways:

1. bandage her up under extra supervision then lock her in a room/shed and/or tie her up on a leash somewhere and wait out the night
2. put a fucking bullet in her

But both of those lead to boring plots that don't put the player in control.
It was a huge fucking mistake on their part to pander to the fans as much as they did.
>>
>>87673374
>Bleed to death
>From a dog bite
Stop exaggerating. It only harms your point.
>>
>>87673374
Each season tries to push a certain theme that is the "right" theme and Season 2's theme is "everyone is either retarded or belligerent or both and you should just cut them all out of your life because zombies ain't shit in comparison". This is all Clem's origin story. Clem's gonna save America.
>>
>>87673503

The danger wasn't in her bleeding to death. It was the possible fever/infection that was going to set in coupled with the cold weather that was going to kill her/make her turn.
>>
>>87673489
Their argument for not bandaging her up was limited supplies, but of course she would be dead by morning anyway. I think. I actually don't remember exactly why her wound was urgent.
>>
>>87673537
He said "bleeding to death" though. 1) Was it ever made a point of it being particularly cold?

The infection is a concern but I don't think it was immediately threatening. I remember thinking it was impulsive and dumb of her to sneak out when I saw the scenes.
>>87673571
I don't really think there was an urgency given but I could be mistaken.
>>
>>87673571
>Their argument for not bandaging her up was limited supplies
Thus bullet in the head

>I actually don't remember exactly why her wound was urgent.
she was literal passing in and out of consciousness, that's why you were carried back and why you could do little else short of call out to people.
>>
>>87673609

At the start of the very same episode they set up that it's the dead of winter and only going to get colder. The whole reason she was in that situation was because Christa had to go get more firewood because their fire was too small.

You even had to choose between burning Lee's picture or Duck's drawning.
>>
>>87673609

Think of this scenario then. What would they have done if they woke up the next morning and she was literally shivering from a high fever and the cold weather? Would they just let her go back out in the wild? Would they end her misery? They clearly had no intention of helping her until Luke stepped up. Also I highyly doubt they would have the proper medicine to treat clem for her sever condition. They put her in a shitty situation so she acted accordingly.
>>

Season 2 I found myself going "of course you/they would" to almost the whole damn game because at that point it was like playing multiplayer CoD where people get themselves killed in the dumbest ways.

Me too, he was a fucking danger to be around.

Like, yeah, Jane tricked him, but he PROMISED my Clem that he wouldn't start hurting people senselessly, that he'd try to keep his cool regardless of the situation. It would have just been a matter of time before Jane or even Clem did something that pissed him off enough.

That said, Jane also has severe emotional issues that make her unpredictable and unreliable.

Shoot Kenny, leave Jane, Clem only, final destination.
>>
>>87674451
It's another one of those dumbass writing choices that made Kenny """"right"""" in hindsight. But at the time he was being an idiot who couldn't control himself as usual. The most annoying part about Kenny is the plot contrivances to lessen his bullshit.

Bonnie is probably the worst objectively.

>Refuses to listen to you when you tell her not to get close to Luke on the fucking ice and gets him killed
>Has the gall to blame you even if you risk yourself trying to save him from her dumbassery

>>87678476
I notice that everyone who hates Bonnie made the "wrong" choice with Luke in the ice. Because otherwise she gets very upset when Clem is shot and the two have a lovely heart to heart just after Kenny's MUH TRUCK freak out.
>>
Sarah and Nate get killed off after all of the prior plots that suggested they'd get big and fulfilling arcs. All the new characters except Jane get thrown to the wolves. And yet here's fucking Kenny getting half the screentime and being extra important at the end.

I wish Lee had been there because my Lee wouldn't have dealt with Kenny's shit again. Lee would have told him to fuck off the first time he pulled one of his temper tantrums.
>>
>>87678501

Bonnie just jumped in like a moron on choice B
>>
>>87678515
They really dropped the ball on season 2's characters. I can see where blaming Kenny for it comes from because he ended up having much more focus than I ever would have thought before playing. I don't mind Kenny but I get why people hate him and I see why season 2 must have been infuriating for people like you.

At the very least I can agree that the season would have been better if they'd cut Kenny and focused on giving the new characters better plots.
>>
>>87678607
You're right, but the writers were trying to have you decide whether you were too afrighten to help Luke or if you'd be the hero.

They just really fucked the presentation.
>>
>>87678444
They were trying to cowtow to Kenny fans. Those of us who didn't kiss his butt in every single choice in Season One (which was all it took to turn him against you and get him to almost refuse to save Clementine) weren't their concern.
>>
>>87678642
I think this is another one of those moments where Clementine's age made characters' reactions look really awful. The fact that Bonnie got mad at a kid for not risking her life when she didn't think she had to/that she could actually do something made her look like an incredible bitch. It was the same with Arvo shooting Clem and Mike and Bonnie leaving her behind. All of this stuff wouldn't have looked so bizarrely evil if you were playing as an adult.

But somehow it didn't seem like it was the intention to make them look bizarrely evil. The whole season felt like the writers forgot you were playing as a kid, so all of the characters seemed to forget too in the crucial moments.
>>
>>87678664
I didn't kiss his ass and he still had my back

he was a little hesitant which was kind of dickish but he still went "Fuck in the end you still had my back when I needed it most"

Because the writers are shit and don't know how to make a game with routes. They are so hell bent on telling the story the way they want to that they should've just made a fucking comic book about it, since nothing you did matter in the grand scheme of things.

Bullshit Arvo was constantly giving Clem death glares the whole walk because his "sister" / "lover got rekt in the shootout he helped start (which he does no matter what even if you do give him supplies)

Also if you give him supplies they are still missing and he pins it on you (the dude was hiding them in the trash away from his group ffs, dude was most likely stealing from his own group and covered his ass by pinning it on yours)

Who knows how the boat thing would have worked out but its not like they couldn't have ended up somewhere else. In 400 days, the people who steal the boat are just fine. Granted it wasn't a permanent solution but it was something

As for Wellington, point is it WAS there like he said and he sacrifices his own spot just so you and the baby could get in and be safe

The thing that pissed me off most was that Lee didn't make it longer in Season 1 if you chopped/didn't chop his arm

Imagine if

1) he met up with Christa and Omid in this field before he died and passed Clem on to them,

or

2) Already turned, had to be put down by Clem, and while she's waiting for Christa and Omid to show up, she tries digging him a grave

>>87679279
I don't think it was supposed to be pretty. You just barely got Clem away from the psycho and you had to give her a hasty crash course in keeping herself alive before you kick the bucket, which turns Clem into the Chosen One.

As many problems as there are with the writing, I liked the way it ended. It added some bleakness to the situation when a little girl has to watch her father figure holed up in what looks like gas station restroom chained to a pipe surrounded by zombies turn into a zombie. As opposed to getting a relatively nice and tidy death in a pastoral field somewhere. That might just be personal preference though.

Nick and Sarah competed for the most wasted potential. They're the only cabin group members I felt Clem had any time to really sympathize with early on.

Seemed like they had character arcs in mind for them, but just axed them off in favor of focusing screentime on Kenny and Jane's conflict.
>>
>>87679493
>she actually had a tragic character arc
More true than you realize. Her arc was basically her getting babied, experiencing trauma for the first time, being unable to cope and paying for it with her life. It's fucked up but that's pretty complete. They can't all be Clem. In fact, everyone except Clem sucks and that's why they all died.

But Sarah didn't even die over a mistake on her part.

The deck collapsed in a random accident, she somehow ended up underneath it despite falling after it, and everyone on the deck that could help her forgot that they were holding assault rifles.

It didn't fit some dark emotional theme, it just felt arbitrary and made the group look like jackasses.

>>87679806
Yeah, I was mainly referring to the writers giving up on characters by that point.

Sarah's first death makes more sense. It's forced nihilism that undermines the bittersweet and heartfelt themes of the first season, but it fits the tone that Jane's character was trying to force on you.

I thought everything with Tyrion felt off. I know that he's a fan favorite for the audience, but as a Lannister, your character has no reason to trust him at the start. You should be keeping up the facade with everyone at King's Landing.

One of the main problems when I played BL was that there were all these interesting protagonists and most of the time they were just mute and you can't really interact with the other characters. It got really boring so I was pessimistic in downloading Tales from Borderlands. Glad to be wrong.

So it's interesting that Telltale found a way to explore the setting beyond its source material.

My main small nitpick with Tales from the Borderlands is if you save Felix during episode 1 you find out he knew about the bomb in the briefcase the whole time. But then it makes no sense for him to die if you decide to not tell him about the bomb.

>>87680850
He probably forgot in the heat of the moment.

Alright Borderfags, who did you think the masked stranger was in the first four episodes.
>>
>>87680850
Yeah, I'm not sure if it was the original idea for his character when they wrote episode one, but I think his plan was to fake his death, but you can only make contact with him again if you warn him.
>>
>>87680890
Sasha or Vaughn, but mainly a random background bandit from the town.
>>
>>87680890
Definitely not who it turned out to be.

I was kind of leaning towards it being Vaughn, because there was this theme of him being afraid of getting left behind or betrayed by Rhys.
>>
>>87680971
I was really careful in checking if my choices could burn someone's face off. It's the only speculation I had for the masketta man, that he was a burn victim.

So closest I had was Felix but I warned him of that.

>>
>>87681194
Rhys and Fiona were a good "enemies becoming friendly rivals" chemistry.

Rhys and Sasha were a bit more amiable from the get-go, leaving room for some romantic development.
>>
>>87681217
Yeah I just passively headcanon them as twins separated from birth for being too snarky in the belly with each other in the early episodes.

God, I just really love a great lot of the characters in this, even the villains and that guy who sounds like Kronk.

>>87681248
Vasquez was great. Was a little disappointed that he didn't survive longer.
>>
>>87680850
>>87680922
I think the hidden con is the idea. Felix deactivated the bomb long enough to get most of the money out, but reactivated it to make the betrayal look believable. The case would blow up, he would disappear, and make Vallory's gang assume that all the cash had been destroyed. But he didn't account for the armoire being flung out of the back of the caravan with all the money.
>>
>>87681271
He was the first guy on my list to be the masked stranger, but I crossed him out as he didn't have his iconic voice.

This makes sense but still doesn't quite explain why he only contacts Fiona if she tells him about the bomb. Vallory and Vasquez were dead by then so it would have been safe to reveal the plan. Maybe you could argue he wasn't able to find her until you went looking for allies but it feels more like TT didn't fully plan this plot point from the start.

Yeah, both explanations might be the case.

Telltale wanted to validate both choices. He might have been looking for you, but Fiona assumes he's dead and doesn't seek him out if she didn't warn him about the case.
>>
>>87682387
Same answer they give for whether or not there'll be a Wolf Among Us season 2.

Maybe.
>>
>>87678893
>It's a choose your own adventure book, not a write your own adventure book.

>>87679422
The Wolf Among Us fell apart in like, its third episode and Season 1 isn't as good as you remember. I haven't played Tales From The Borderlands yet.
>>
>>87685255
I really liked Wolf Among Us, but I think the investigation aspect of it held the story back a bit, because it had to repeatedly find ways for you to progress regardless of how you wanted to investigate, and despite how terrible you might have been at linking evidence.

Still enjoyed the characters and setting though.
>>
>>87685320
The investigation parts were tedious, the mystery became boring, and the trial scene was just fucking retarded.

All it has going for it is its strong opening.
>>
>>87685387
I liked the mystery, but didn't think the reveal had quite the impact that it could have. Maybe because we didn't really know who the Crooked Man was until the very end.
>>
>>87685444
But they mystery was no real mystery. It was just a standard investigation and took no real twists and turns. All of this and it was ended on "u are a murderer" "no im a business man" "but you directly influenced events that led to the deaths of multiple people" "no im a business man" "ok lets just throw you in a pit now" which made the whole experience feel kind of asinine.
>>
>>87685524
Crane and the Woodsman being red herrings could technically qualify as a a twist.

And I thought that the ending reveal that Faith was probably dead the entire time and Nerissa orchestrated the whole thing to free herself and the other girls was interesting.
>>
>>87685590
Crane and the Woodsman come too early too early in the story as red herrings to be seriously considered.

I felt that was kind of rushed and shoehorned desu. The pacing of the whole thing felt kind of off.
>>
>>87685635
It may or may not be true, but there is a rumor that Telltale rewrote parts of the ending after someone guessed who the killer was on the Telltale forums.

And that Detective Brannigan and that ginger guy who kept showing up and bumping into you would come into play.

They've already confirmed that it's Clem again for season 3. Mike didn't have much of a story or player investment to pick up on, other than the fact that he was willing to leave Clem for dead after Arvo shot her.

After you swear loyalty to Joffrey there's no real option to tell Tyrion that you were being genuine. You either badmouth the queen or basically say that you were bluffing for Margaery's sake.

Pretty much.

I liked their love hate relationship, but it was annoying when people started complaining that it didn't have romantic development.

I don't know if it'll be quite as split as Tales, because they're much more focusing on Javier than Clem when they talk about the game.

No, she's just very tanned.

She and Fiona are supposed to be Mediterranean, I believe.

The depressive story, dark humor, and weird music mainly.

>>87690156
Depressing doesn't equal good. Humor was alright, I guess. Music was decent.

There's people going "best game of all time" though when they can't name what they liked about the writing besides it being sad. Same situation as TWD season 1 to me desu.

That's what I always assumed it was. Or Fiona and Sasha stuck together before that and he found them. They look nothing alike and that's on purpose, especially with Telltale character models.

Telltale games are about the journey, not the destination. Whether you played Lee as a good guy or a cold hard bastard matters, even if both versions die at the end.

Different stories are going to resonate with different people. I thought the emotional downward spiral of the main character was an interesting take on psychological horror.

Yeah, but people always equate feeling emotion to good writing. I could go over how I thought it was bad specifically but I kind of want to wrap this up so it doesn't go off-topic.
>psychological horror
It's not really mean to be that and it mostly isn't.

>people always equate feeling emotion to good writing
Assuming it's more than frustration and disappointment, it's usually considered an accomplishment for a story to succeed in making you feel something.
>>
>>87691930
That's not the only thing a story has to or should do to be good though. People can feel sad over anything as long as the story itself is sad. And generally, I think people are too easily manipulated for that to be a sign of quality anymore.

For instance, if I make a story about a kid starving to death during the Holocaust, I guarantee it'll make some people sad. Doesn't mean it'll be good though.

I disagree. Just having terrible thing after terrible thing happen in a story doesn't guarantee an emotional reaction.

That's why I disliked Telltale's second season of Walking Dead. It didn't have the tonal balance or character development to make the horrible things that happened mean anything. It just killed characters off for shock value, and didn't earn the emotional weight or impact that the first season had.
>>
>>87692176
It does for some people and really, that's all that's required for most people who get affected by these kinds of games.

The first season was just like the second season pacing and even story wise. People's emotions can't be calculated well so I think season 1 was just lightning in a bottle in a way.

I can assure you that some people felt emotions from season 2. Fuck, people even debate the whole Kenny/Jane thing with passion despite the drama being so horribly written.
>>
>>87692288
Kenny ending in season 2 is more emotional than the season 1 ending.
>>
>>87692176
>>87692288
Also, if I had to guess why season 2 was such a failure in the eyes of normies, it'd be the lack of Lee (or more accurately, the lack of his great voice) and the fact that it's the same kind of shit twice so the impact's softened.

>The first season was just like the second season pacing and even story wise
It's obviously subjective, but I think a lot of people disagree. Season 2 went for a more action-driven cinematic approach, skipping over the hub areas that season 1 had for calmer interactions and problem solving. Not to mention how many character arcs were dropped halfway through the story.

I'm sure a lot of people liked season 2 well enough, but most discussions I've seen seem to agree that it wasn't the same tier as the first season.
