Does season three need season one's load file or only season two's load file?
I have TWD and TWD Season Two. When I opened season two, it wanted season one's load file and I want to play season three too. So I didn't remove season one from my computer cause season three. Does season three need season one's load file or only season two's load file? If it needs only season two, I will remove season one. Also I know season three didn't release yet but I want to learn.

There really isn't any way to know if you'll need it or not, details for season 3 are quite scarce at the moment. I suggest you copy the save files from the directory C:\Users(yourname)\Documents\Telltale Games\The Walking Dead then paste them on a separate folder or better yet, a external drive such as a memory stick or something. That way, you can delete the game without losing your save files. If you want them again all you need to do is reinstall the game and paste the saves back into the original folder. So I suggest you do that so you can keep your saves just in case.
Thank you for your help. I'll keep my save files in google drive.
This is just me guessing and speculating - I am not a Telltale Staff member - but I would speculate that you will only need to have the first Episode of Season 2 and the first Episode of Michonne since the first episode of each modern Telltale series acts as the "base game" that holds the save file, whereas the rest of the episodes are just DLC.
As Batteries said, details are scarce, but we can expect more info on Season 3 when Michonne concludes. They typically go over the more technical details like this closer to the game launch, but yeah, keeping save files on hand would not hurt either.
I really hope it only needs S2
Otherwise I'm playing through S1 again
Season 1 didn't have many large impacts on Season 2, so I think you would be fine without playing Season 1 again if that is the case. I think Season 3 will most likely reference Season 2 choices, and possibly choices from Michonne as well if they are wanting to tie in Michonne to the game series.
My best guess is that we'll need AT LEAST our Season 2 save since Telltale said that Clementine was going to be in the season (they haven't said anything about whether we'll play as her or not, though).
Wait, Telltale said that?
They might include a Mass Effect style minigame where you can replay the key decisions without having to import your old saves.
My guess would be only season 2....I think
I'm pretty sure they did. I remember them saying it really early on after Season 3 was announced.
Theoretically, you'd only need S2, provided you played through it with a S1 save. Theoretically.
I'm thinking that S2 must have to make back-ups for imported save files, since I doubt they made a system that actually uses the save files from the first season. What's more likely is that they set S2 up to read the save files for the first season, and copy that data into the S2 save files. So, if you played through S1, all of the choices made should be copied and stored within S2's save files, or so I'd imagine.
This is all theory, I have no idea if the files actually work like this or not. But it would make sense.
But it's probably better to be safe than sorry, and just keep save files for both seasons.
