What specifcally did the statue represent, or was it just foreshadowing for episode 5?
In episode 4, Telltale heavily pushed the imagery of the statue on us, cutting to it several times, showing it during the credits etc.
What exactly is it supposed to represent, because I couldn't really understand what point they were trying to get across. A group member saving someone else?
It can't be Kenny as the quote is 'forgiven but not forsaken' and it's only determinant that you forgive Kenny depending on how you play.
Maybe it foreshadows something in episode 5 where Luke/Kenny offers to carry the other when they are suffering from wounds, putting their past behind them?

Good idea. Sounds like it be something along those lines.
Everyone seems to think that it represented Nick and his guilt over killing Matthew or something but since Nick is dead I don't think that counts anymore so it is probably foreshadowing for something else. Or maybe Luke will have some sort of breakdown and Nick will be mentioned I don't even know.
It represented civil war soldiers.
The quote actually says "Fallen but never forsaken". I thought it had something to do with Sarah in episode 4, in how if you save her, she dies anyway, but at least you didn't forsake her. But it could have something to do with episode 5, maybe someone has to carry someone that's injured?
I was thinking the same on the statues, that maybe Luke or Kenny are going to have to help the other one. In another scene in the background there's a message that says something like "Enemies must forgive," while Kenny and Luke are talking, so I do think these two will make peace.
"Fallen but never forsaken."
Possibly foreshadowing someone who fell, but he wasn't abandoned.
Possible something like Luke or Kenny falling down but then help each other in the end.
Could even reference Lee if you think about it.
Plus nick can be dead before episode 4 happens
For me "Fallen but never forsaken" is a general reminder of all these people who died.
I mean, Lee, Omid, Peter, Doug, Carley, Larry, Charles, Walter, Matthew, Nick, Duck, Chuck, Benny, Katja, Sarah, Carlos, Rebecca, Alvin. They may be dead but they aren't forgotten. They're in Clementine/our heart/s.
It's about Sarah. Notice that right before they leave to go find Luke and Sarah, Jane glances up at the statue and the camera focuses on it for a little bit. The message being communicated is that even in times of great strife (such as a war or an apocalypse), you should never abandon your fallen comrades. No matter how much of a burden it is to have to carry them, you do it because it's the right thing to do.
I think it just represents the sadness and loss of this game. #masseffectfour
It means even if they died, you never gave up on them.
Fallen=Dead
Never Forsaken= never gave up
I figured it was just a metaphor about how the group should not fall out, but rather stick together even in the face of adversity.
I took it as, you don't leave your friends behind.
I hate mass effect
Forsaken means abandoned.
I think it talks about Sarah since you saved her and because jane consistently mentions her little sister, who was the same
