    I don't think he's all bad, but I do find it pretty ridiculous that he got upset over a few cups of pudding.

  • I don't think he was even really pissed about it. One of his lines was something like "Everyone is starving right now. You'll have to pay it back though" or something in that regard. He was more upset because Javier didn't say the truth to him and was clearly hiding something. Javier said "We" at the beginning of their converstation which implied that he's not alone and in his place I would be nervous about group of strangers on my territory as well.

    Still seems pretty drastic. I get that he was cautious but it wasn't worth getting so hot-headed about IMO.

  • How would you react if you come back to your place and there's a guy that is stealing gas and he is clearly refusing to tell you the truth?

    I wouldn't shove a gun in his face, that's for sure. That sort of thing's really not a big deal to me, if I'm being completely honest. As long as said guy doesn't wanna harm me he can keep the gas for all I care.

  • Well, from Max's perspective he did mean harm. Otherwise, why would Javi lie? imo, It's better to be safe than sorry .

  • Are you caught up, Kray?

    It was confirmed that Arvo was in the process of escaping from Buricko and Vitali when we stumbled upon him by the end of "Amid The Ruins." He never brought his people to us intentionally, and therefore cannot be held accountable for anything that happened as a result of the ambush!

    These are all solid points, mate. And although these points are good, I still have some resentments against the man, despite him acting out

    Because Max was coming off pretty aggressively and pointing a gun at him, along with two other men, and people tend to get nervous under that kind of pressure. Max has got a decent head on his shoulders but that whole scene made me roll my eyes because you just knew how it was going to play out.

    OMG if that's actually true then Arvo is actually innocent!!! ARVO HATERS WILL NOT HAVE A SOLID ANSWER ANYMORE!!

    I'm sorry I'm tired XD

    At least three users—@Auruo, and the hosts @mostlypoptarts and @kenjisalk—can confirm.

  • I wouldn't say she was shitty, she just wasn't around long enough. She was introduced in Episode 3, which also gave her the most screen time, and it amounted to about a total of 8 minutes. The next two episodes, combined, were probably only 4 minutes. With that little amount of screen time, it's hard to make a character like that very compelling or interesting, she was just there to be an added threat and give characters like August, Finch, and Kroger a reason to be there. So while she wasn't a good villain, I wouldn't say she was shitty.

    Vallory was shitty, though.

  • Well it seems we join their group if anything

    I've got a sneaky fuckin' feeling that he'll be joining our group, while Badger is the main bad guy.

  • Max is still another zombie survivor and can't risk the danger of his own crew so I don't fault him for pulling such acts if you start acting up too much.

  • I honestly wouldn't be like Max, when people were killing those in my crew they were fucking dead to me. Especially when Danny and Andy cut up Mark like that I was hoping I get to kill them soon.

    "Drastic"?

    He punched him once

    And ah, well, he did subdue him, but that was very well justified, so it's not even worth mentioning.

  • Max could have easily killed Javier already - but he hasn't.

    I really think this guy will come out of his shell in episode 3. He obviously has a problem with Badger's methods.

  • Chances are if he leaves, then Badger takes over his role.

    I think he might join but Badger doesn't seem like main antagonist material to me.

  • Is she from Game of Thrones?

  • Another thing to talk about Walking Dead characters so far is that many are in a grey area meaning they're not always full on villain or hero, though some characters like Carver and Troy you can tell were evil to the core.

    Well, that's one of the things I really liked getting into this series. Unfortunately, Carver was one of the biggest signs that the writing was going through a decline.

    Oddly enough, Troy was actually not that bad, just a general dick, though that could just be in comparison to Carver, Randall, and the original concepts of his character.

    I'm glad I'm not the only one that noticed this. I didn't know his name though. I knew he was an okay guy the first time he pointed a gun at

    Yeah, admittedly one the missteps in both Jane and Conrad's characterizations was the fact that Clementine/Javier can die if they hesitate and/or don't cooperate on their watch. At least Max has the benefit of a. not being on your side and b. giving you fair chance.

    If it's meant to be a non-canon situation, then it doesn't explain why the option for the player to die right there and then exists in the f

  • You know, the funny thing is I actually never bought into that theory despite being empathetic to guy myself, so that reveal was a genuine surpise. I always just assumed he was sent ahead to set up a new base for winter alone because they didn't treat him very well, much like how Kenny, Jane, and sometimes Luke make Clementine do things for them.

    HAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!!!! Oh my goodness, THANK YOU TELLTALE!!!!

  • I think David will ask javi (us) weather max was involved or not, so I think we will get a choice to get him killed or keep him alive

    HiroVoid posted: »

    I'll be surprised if we don't get a brutal death for Badger once Javi tells David what happened. It'll certainly be interesting to see how Max ends up shaking out.

  • edited January 2017

    I agree.

    Badger is more likely to turn out to be one of the big bad's henchmen, rather than the big bad himself. The main antagonist is probably going to be the spoiler character who appears at the end of second episode. Since that character appears to be the the leader of the New Frontier, he's likely going to be this season's Governor or Negan.

    I actually like Max too! I think he's very interesting and has a lot of potential for future episodes. However, it doesn't seem like Clementine likes him very much.

    In episode 2, of you choose to go along with Conrad's plan(which obviously isn't a popular choice), then Javi will have Clem approach Max and the others. She'll flip Max off. Idk What do you guys think of this? What could have been the history between these two?

  • Max responds with "Cute!" so I'd say it's something like two sassy personalities colliding.

    Good thing you posted a pic otherwise i wouldn't know who max is.

    He reminds me of Merle dixon. A little unhinged but not a bastard by heart.
