⁠@JackAttackWseriously?! I can totally see Christa ‘going bad’ after all she went through: losing her husband, friends and her unborn child to the plague that essentially ended the world? Hell we saw it with Negan in the tv show! The only thing that would need changing is the “kidnapping kids for soldiers” bit that Lilly was doing, given how she was with Clem (and even putting her child aside for a moment) I honestly doubt Christa would have done that. Leaving her as “missing” at the end of the Final Season still annoys me 😤😤😤

[@someguy8951]

Sarah was my biggest disappointment with this season, the potential for her to develop and become a competent survivor was completely wasted. You even teach her how to aim a gun which doesn't make a single difference later on in the story, and then she gets killed because telltale said so.

[@jennieifanis8917]

I know this sounds bad, but Sarah reminded me a lot about myself. Introverted, sheltered, full of anxiety with no true view of the real world. I wanted a chance to save her and watch her develop into a more mature fighter. It didn’t have to be much. There could’ve had a scene where if you save her, she may get lost and be gone for the rest of the game. But a season or two later, Clem could find her with a new group, stronger than ever (maybe save Clem in a surprise save from some zombies) and Sarah could say thanks for not giving up on her.

[@jaredwalker3960]

They did same thing to Ben where you think he'd make a great character who has made mistakes and has room for character development, but instead that's been thrown out the window

[@primroseprom]

Yeah, I remember thinking about how the way you can stand up for her, teach her, etc should have made some sort of difference in whether or not she survived. Like I understand, the 11 or so days season 2 takes place over isn’t enough for Sarah to do a complete 180 and go from a teenager who acts younger than Clem and is extremely codependent on her father to a fully capable survivor, but goddamn. It would’ve been vindicating and painfully tragic in a way to have the proof in our hands that Sarah could have been a capable survivor (by succeeding in the areas Clem helped her in) if Carlos hadn’t stunted her development, even if she did die in the end because of the immense trauma of watching her father die right in front of her. If they ever decide to remake the series in the future, it’d be nice to have some actual player choices that matter and give us the ability to help Sarah survive.

Clementines age also makes their emotional dependency on her and her opinion of them extremely creepy. Season one, everyone saw Lee as a capable leader and an overall great guy so they valued his opinion an were hurt when they felt he wasn't supporting them. But Clementine is a child. Putting all your self confidence and emotional baggage on a child is just irresponsible and honestly, abusive. Berleezy was getting weird vibes from Luke because of his attachment to her and intense reaction when she did something he didn't agree with. It was so unsubtle to the point it came off as intentionally manipulative, like when you have dinner with Kenny instead of them. Constantly leaning on her to give her input on (or just soley make) choices made them seem clingy and unreliable. Everyone's dependence and attachment to Clem seems Parasitic and one-sided, so the final choice isn't who do I care about more, its who do I hate less. Clementine and AJ endings are the only endings I accept.

This season would have been so much better if they just went with their original script. The season was supposed to be much darker and grittier than what we got. The characters from the 400 days DLC would have come back in episode 4 and met up with our group. The final showdown was also supposed to be between Luke and Kenny instead of being between Jane and Kenny. That could have actually been a tougher decision to make compared to the Kenny vs Jane ordeal. The only thing that I'm glad they changed was Kenny taking Carver's role and being the main antagonist of the story (although it would've been kinda cool ngl) and Clem dying from hypothermia at the end of the season.

Lots of people tend to hate on Season 3 because either Clementine isn’t the main character or not having enough screen time. Honestly season 2 always seemed the worst of all the seasons for me, a bunch of adults who are codependent on a child to do stuff. Kenny’s character is pretty much is ruined later in the game. He is fated to die unless you ditch him at Wellington. Christa is never brought back again.

[@darkg058]

i always say this bro

[@enterusername6953]

With Christa, there is this huge plothole of the relationship between Clementine and Christa. After Omid's death, Clementine and Christa were with eachother surviving for 8 MONTHS! That's like as long as Clementine was with Lee. Yet there was no emotional connection at all within that time? I get Christa lost the baby, but what happened for them to be so disconnected with eachother. For surviving together for 8 months, Clem looked like she didn't give a crap about Christa. Why wasn't she concerned in looking for Christa after they separated? It's like after Omid's death, those 8 months never happened and they just wanted an excuse to update Clem's design. Was Christa mad at Clementine about Omid's death for THAT LONG?!

39:00 If I remember correctly, in S1, when you have to choose between helping Kenny get rid of Larry or helping Lily, if you side with Lily, Kenny will be angry and mostly against you for the rest of the game. And I think having such a personality shift from just one choice (or maybe 2) can really hurt the players' perspective about a character. That's why I think a lot of people are so mixed about Kenny in S1, simply because you can have a version where he is by your side and support you, or one where he is simply unlikeable in any way. Now I might be wrong or partially wrong, since I haven't played or watched any TWS1 content in a while

This season's only pros are that you get to see Clementine "grow up," albeit forcably due to the circumstances of the apocalypse, and playing the game through her perspective. In terms of the rest of the characters, a lot of them have been drinking that stupid juice, maybe aside from Pete, but he still sippin' when no one's lookin.

The writing in this season was all over the place. They wrote Pete, who was a decent character, realized he was too rational and responsible and killed him off. Then were left with these other dumbasses until Kenny and his new group returned. They realized his group may have been too likable and rational and killed everyone except Kenny off, once again leaving us with these other dumbasses + Kenny, who also sucks but is marginally better + the remaining dumbasses from Carver’s group. And things just keep nosediving from there until the other only rational members of the remaining groups (Jane, maybe Mike?, maaaybe Luke) start making ass decisions, too. I just want to know what the writers were thinking and how they wanted anyone to take these unrealistic characters seriously.

[@pathetic2399]

Imo, Bonnie and Arvo are the worst characters. Bonnie because she’s two-faced and wishy-washy and tries so hard to seek approval from a 12 year old for some reason yet will betray her at the drop of a hat, and Arvo because the only remaining rational characters in the season lose brain cells whenever he’s involved. Like, He’s barely even a character, but he makes everyone except Kenny dumber for just existing in proximity of him. Everyone else except Kenny can be packed up in the “Useless, dumb, and/or complainy character” category, while Kenny gets his own category of “Writers go out of their way to try to vilify him but then for some reason absolve him at the end of the season or at the beginning of season 3 depending on your choices.”

The biggest issue with this season, besides interesting characters/plot points being sacrificed for shock value, is the fact that the writers completely forgot Clementine is a child. It makes sense for the player character in season 1, Lee, to make the big decisions and do dangerous stuff for the group, because he's an adult (& also the goat ofc). When Clementine had to take up that role, the creators just assumed they could write the story the same way. But the fact that Clem is 11 changes everything! Why are the adults constantly threatening her, putting all these burdens on her shoulders, and blaming her for everything?? It makes the plot so needlessly contrived, and almost every side character unlikeable! And I know this wasn't intentional on the writer's part because they try to guilt trip you for every "mistake" Clem makes, when really, the fault is on the adult characters of the story who made the little girl do everything for them. It's not tragic, it just feels nonsensical!

So while I can see why you hate him… I also can’t you know? Because in all honesty, Kenny is (in my opinion) one of the best characters because he has your back if you have his. No matter what.

This is why I ultimately side with Kenny in the Kenny v Lily debate for half of the season. Lily is more sensible but she really is only out for herself, and Kenny has bad ideas but is ride or die for you if you appeal to him. Lily is who I’d prefer as a leader, while Kenny is the guy I would rather be friends with. But I’m also one of the freaks who helped him smash Larry’s head in the locker, so it’s not like I’ve been faced with the brunt of his anger before. I also am a bit softer on him when he gets pissy with Lee, because most of the time when he throws a fit, he is on the constant edge of a mental breakdown. Him prior to losing Katjaa and Duck? Yeah that’s not cool and fuck him for that. Afterwards? I’m not even mad, I just feel sorry for him.

Hell some people see him as a straight up hero like Lee despite being Toxic and unstable, many people still prefer him over Jane even if he is an asshole. And I honestly prefer Kenny over Jane also. I would rather be with someone who is slightly abusive that would sacrifice his life for me, that I know and trust, rather than some Manipulative Loner Woman who I’ve only known for three days who hides a baby in a car just approve a point, and who ends up killing herself and abandoning me and a baby.

[@TheSilentCheetah]

Kenny's biggest character flaw is his unwavering need for undying loyalty. It's something they could have built upon, having him go from a stubborn and rather dependent asshole to someone who's more open, accepting, and understanding of disagreements. If you don't agree with Kenny every step of the way or play too much of a middle man, he will straight up leave your ass to die without thinking twice about it. I remember in the drug store when the door falls on Lee, he literally will not help you depending on how you've played. It's quite ridiculous and a severe overreaction to what I believe stems from the player choosing to help Larry. I mean, he is less angry about you not saving his kid than he is about you trying to save Larry. It's crazy. I would've loved it if, by the end of the game, when you asked Kenny for help, even if you disagreed with Kenny about everything, he says something like "We may not agree much, but I know what that girl means to you and I know what it meant when I lost my boy." I can't believe the only other guy in the group who had a kid was willing to abandon Clem over ill will towards Lee. But in season 2, he never even contemplates this fact or apologizes to Clem.

S2 puts Clem in a lose-lose & gloomy situation, and most of the time, the nostalgia factor of seeing Kenny again is what gets people to trust him far faster than the new characters that wanted to put Clem in a shed. Players forget about a lot of Kenny's flaws & almost blindly support him when his behavior isn't conducive to smart survival at all- he makes enemies too easily by constantly flying off the handle, & when he makes decisions without anyone else's input he expects you to support him 100% of the time. I don't hate the S2 cast as much as you do, and I definitely would pick Luke over Kenny if that were the final decision of the game, but it's easy to see how the game makes you cling onto Kenny as if we were thrust right back into Lee's shoes in S1 (even tho Kenny didn't care much for Clem at all).

It's worth noting that the original team behind season 1 was more or less pushed out by the studio who forced changes and rewrites.

Either should have been a new story each season where you encounter old characters from prior seasons or a time skip to where Clem is an adult herself so you actually have power over a situation.

Bro im so glad you're not a Kenny glazer, everyone i talk to about this game gets FLABBERGASTED when i mention not liking him.

[@CottageDreams23]

I love kenny but yea he makes me wanting to kick his ass sometimes..

[@emmanuelpiopadao3329]

Off-topic-ish but how do you feel about Kenny glazers that actually know more than just clazing and understand Kenny's ups and downs as someone who deep down is a good person but keeps lashing out due to his emotions?

12:05 Unless stated otherwise elsewhere, I always just assumed it was Pete kinda goin' "I was in Texas with my cousin, cousin got bit, chopped off the limb, he survived for a while after, I dipped to take care of my nephew/join Carver"

1:07:20 RIGHHT ?? That whole "wait another 4 months for the second part of season 2" bs made me drop the show lmaoooo.

[@xoeleox2079]

1:08:30 When a villain says "we're the same" (assuming the writing is good), it doesn't necessarily mean they are correct-- rather, the villain is saying "I see myself in you," which reveals something about their own character. Carver sees some part of himself in Clem, which is causing him to act differently toward her. Whether or not they are actually the same is less relevant. While this device can also be used to juxtapose characters who *do* have similar traits but have chosen different paths, I don't think that's what's being done here. All that said, the line is also a cliche, and there are better ways to accomplish this type of connection in fiction.

Good writing shouldn't feel the need to point that out. If it's well written the audience should come to that conclusion by themselves

[@cjvoerman5591]

These people really be beefing with an 11-year-old. Also, the final conflict should’ve been between Kenny and Luke.

This season has its ups and downs. The supporting cast is terrible while the setting, stakes, and villain especially are phenomenal. Carver does NOT get talked about enough in the best villain in fiction talk, he is clearly up there to me. I don't like the overdependence of clem in this season and how kost of the adults make childish decisions. I hate the amount of betrayal in this season but at the end of the day thats good writing to me, it makes me have strong emotions and opinions (which is the point of the game). The return of Kenny was one of the most hype moments in the game and I liked the environment for the most part. My favorite thing however was the pacing. The episodes didn't feel mind bogglingly long and felt like it was just the right amount of length to tell the story well.

The problem with this series is: it doesn't matter what you choose to do. The outcome will be the same. This is hardly a game.

[@sharkenjoyer]

This is a deltarune kinda thing, your choices won't affect the outcome but will affect the reason the outcome happened. Kenny can be a fake piece of shit in his scenes and not help you or be the opposite depending on how you interact with him, even if the outcome will always be the same. The game isn't about the destination, it's the journey.

[@gukeoke6312]

To be fair, if your choices actually mattered, the game would only have one season, because otherwise they'd have to make multiple sequels for every different path It's like how Detroid Become Human has so many branching paths and endings, but it's a standalone game because of that In Telltale games, your choices don't change the story, your choices change HOW you go through the established story

[@hanshecker9075]

32:56 Brother... That's the ENTIRE action gameplay aspect of EVERY SINGLE ONE of Telltale games since Jurassic Park. I mean, they are point-&-clickers, that's the only way to add action to a game like that without a complete genre-change.

[@arpadszabo661]

Ngl, looking back, the only thing surprising is that telltale didn’t go bankrupt sooner
