I like it. Carver seemed to be foreshadowing Clementine becoming a leader, and I see her taking over his community herself as a sort of poetic justice.
I stayed in Wellington without Kenny. I wasn't leaving him out of pragmatism or higher chances of survival, but rather because I did not want the sacrifices that Kenny, Christa, and everyone else made to reach this point to have been in vain.
Little AJ is a newborn baby. You can't feed a newborn baby a couple spoonfuls of scavenged Spaghetti-O's and hope for the best. He can't eat that stuff. We had no lactating women, or even lactating nonhumans (yes, this stopgap has been used every now and then in human history).
AJ must have formula, or he will die. That is the fact, and no amount of "feels" will change that fact.
And Kenny's plan, to go off on what might well be a wild goose chase for a place that might not even exist, and through the driving snow and northern cold when we were nearly out of formula for the baby... no. Under no circumstances could I support such a foolish, ill-conceived, and irresponsible plan, especially since we knew there were supplies at Carver's old camp. It was a natural choice to go back there, and that it was southerly (and hence warmer) was yet another point in its favor.
Kenny had gone absolutely batshit, was endangering everyone, including me. I saw this rumored northern camp as little more than another "boat" for him to obsess about. Frankly, by that point, I had had enough of him, and enough of his fucking boats, too. I tried to reason with him several times, and nothing I said, nothing I did penetrated his skull. I was absolutely fed up with his erratic behavior, his wanton endangerment of others, his irrational outbursts, and his seemingly unshakable belief that his own "Feels" were more important than everyone and everything else, including even basic logic.
I shot him.
I was somewhat irritated with Jane re: the deception, but at the same time, really couldn't blame her. By that point, Kenny was so far gone mentally that I had been actively looking for an option to drive off with Jane and leave him with all those abandoned cars when he got out to look. Since I was already thinking along those same lines, how could I fault her? It would be hypocrisy.
The ending I got was with Jane, I, and the baby back at Carver's old camp. I let in the family, partly for humanitarianism's sake, but mostly for pragmatic reasons. The fact is, the place needed work to get it operational once more, and more defenders would not come amiss either. Better to build up a little force now, so we won't be as tempting a target for bandits later. This little family was a good first step in that direction. For such a small group to approach, and one of them a child -- and one whose expressions, body language, and general bearing revealed him to be a noncombatant in general -- was a godsend for my purposes. A small group would be more easily assimilated, more easily turned into a "we", for mine and for Jane's purposes. If I could win them over, and pick up other tiny groups in dribs and drabs as the weeks wore on, I could build a community with that.
Even though the game was constantly trying to pin me against Kenny, I stuck with him. He may have major trust issues when it comes to other … moreadults, but I don't think he would ever harm Clem or the baby. Really glad I stayed loyal to him. I really liked the ending I got. When given the choice to either go into the community or stick with Kenny, it was a really hard choice. I actually had to stop and think it over for a minute. In the end, I decided to stick it out with Kenny. With the extra supplies, I figured we'd be able to make it by until Wellington starts accepting new members again.
So I heard there are five different endings. What are all the ones we know of? This really leads me to believe that Season 3 will be about an entirely different cast. And I'd be fine with that. I'm really happy with the ending I got and wouldn't want it to be ruined.
Also curious if Luke can make it to the end? He died really early into my playthrough … [view original content]
I feel horrible, I never thought about rewinding but that ending feels so... I don't know, I didn't wanted to be alone, but I can't forgive Jane for what she did.... I don't know what to do, Kenny was always my best friend and... It feels like I made every choice wrong and I want to rewind so BADLY, but on the other hand... This is what my gut told me and fuck... I just don't know what to do, I can't think, I'm still crying.
I killed Kenny, and went with Jane only so Clem wouldn't be by herself with the baby. I do wish the choice would've been phrased/worded differently in that scenario. Complete forgiveness is tough only minutes after the actual incident occurred.
They were both being assholes. Kenny for trying to kill her for something that was an accident (At least that's what he thought at the time). And Jane for trying to prove a point in such a sick way to Clementine. But still I killed Kenny not because I liked Jane more, but because I wouldn't want Kenny to be that person who kills people Clementine cares about (And my Clementine cared about Jane at the time). Besides Kenny couldn't hear the voice of reason anymore (The voice of Clementine that tried to get them to get along), and I got the impression he was trying to get himself killed because he wasn't able to bear all the hurt he went through during these series. I figured my Clementine wanted to put him out of his misery and let him finally be with Katja and Duck.
It depends on how close you think Clementine ever was to Kenny. As far as I was concerned, Clem liked Kenny for his connection to Lee rathe… morer than any personal affection - once he proved himself to be an unstable mess who proved to be a threat to everyone else (just like Larry), Clem had to let him go. It's the same lesson that Lee taught her when he abandoned Lilly.
Mind you, I can't forgive Jane for the move she pulled. That was irresponsible and stupid - she deliberately provoked a violent man into attacking her and hoped that Clementine would be fooled into thinking it was an innocent test. I'm inclined to believe Jane simply wanted her surrogate sister to herself, and engineered a situation where it would be okay to kill Kenny.
I ended up with Jane at the store and turned the family away. Something I went back to when making the choices was that line from Lee about hurting others to keep the people you care about safe. It is a cold perspective of the world, but my Clem is hardened. Getting shot for trying to do right by Arvo, taking crap from Bonnie for following Luke's instructions, Mike's betrayal, and having to shoot Kenny... My little sweet pea isn't so little anymore.
Kenny redeemed himself for all the bad and questionable things that he has done. I had started this episode with every intention of making Clementine a hardened survivor at the end, but after that scene with Kenny.....I just couldn't leave him. Kudos to Telltale, Melissa Hutchinson and Gavin Hammon for playing with my emotions.
Edit: Crap, there goes my attempt at posting an emotional slideshow...oh, well, you can open the images in a new tab if you want.
I went into Wellington, because I knew that keeping them safe was on the top of Ken's priorities, and with his sanity going bye-bye (he said it is himself), the best thing was to create a situation where Kenny can die in peace, knowing the both of them are safe.
They wouldn't've lasted too long anyway like that, they didn't have milk for the baby as well.
I had to shoot Kenny , and I knew all along that Jane lying , if Kenny didn't say that Clementine did the right choice about killing I wouldn't have went with Jane even though her sorry was kinda off to me , "I did this for you" , SERIOUSLY.But Jane did right to me.
I knew Jane was lying about AJ, but I chose to kill Kenny and forgive Jane. I hated what she did, but I don't think she meant for someone to die. Kenny was a good man, but this whole thing had driven him mad. From season 1 Kenny's attitude has been an issue to the group and he was becoming more and more like Carter the further he went on.
My ending was facing the herd alone, but I have to say, the ending that felt the most satisfying to me was Wellington. Whether Clem stays at Wellington or refuses to leave Kenny, it just seemed to keep loyalty intact. Siding with Jane, on the other hand, felt a lot more like the calculated thing to do... Maybe better for survival, but I think Kenny's intentions weren't bad (and Jane had trust issues she was passing on to Clem). Bums me out that Jane and Kenny are both determinant, and there are so many possibly endings (and loose threads all over the place).
Shot Kenny. Went with Jane. Invited the family in. Kenny was nuts, Jane was sane. Very pleased with this ending.
Also KENNY said he wanted to die if you shoot him, and said you made the right choice. he wanted to be with Kat and Duck. People who went with him made the WRONG choice.
Jane's entire scenario with tricking Kenny was to prove how insane he was. If Clementine did something wrong to the baby, he would have killed her too. If Kenny was sane, he would have forgiven Jane and the fight wouldn't have happened, and they all would have left. IT"S KENNY's FAULT.
i ended up going back to carver's camp with jane i still wanted to go to wellington though but you have to keep kenny alive so yea that didnt happen
EDIT: after feeling so much regret i did the one thing i said i would never do.... i rewinded and let kenny kill jane and i have no regrets that ending is so much better
Can you explain me one thing about Jane's ending? After invitation, the girl, Patricia, hugged Jane and said "thank you", After this, ominous music played, and Clem looked at someone's back with a gun under belt. And then i noticed that Jane clearly didn't have a gun she had earlier. Is this means that Patricia stole it while hugging Jane? Or maybe it's just my misunderstanding.
I was with Jane, Junior and I let the three people in, but I barely trust Jane, and I don't like those guys. I really, really didn't want to kill Kenny. I was sure that AJ was alive, and I thought I could try to stop them from killing each other, one way or another. But I couldn't, and I don't know if I did the right thing by killing Kenny, even if he says I did the right thing.
Since I couldn't see the choices I made I started a new save file and tried a different ending. Interesting how much they differ. I will get back to my initial choice though.
I thought though that Kenny had totally lost it, and when I learned about Jane's trick I abandoned her as well. I am comfortable with that choice. In a zombie apocalypse you want to be around sane, responsible people and not children.
I'm alone with AJ and I left Jane.
I feel horrible, I never thought about rewinding but that ending feels so... I don't know, I didn't wa… morented to be alone, but I can't forgive Jane for what she did.... I don't know what to do, Kenny was always my best friend and... It feels like I made every choice wrong and I want to rewind so BADLY, but on the other hand... This is what my gut told me and fuck... I just don't know what to do, I can't think, I'm still crying.
I let Kenny kill Jane, and stayed at Wellington with Alvin Junior.
I was so moved by Kenny's selflessness than I couldn't bring myself to make it pointless. It would have been a lack of respect. I love Kenny, and the best way to show him was to accept his sacrifice. His wish to see Alvin Junior in a safe place is now fullfilled, and the last image I saw of him was a hero. Now he can finally be in peace.
I stayed in Wellington and let Kenny go. That was a tough choice, but I was prompted by the previous dialogue with Lee, about sometimes you have to hurt somebody. I figured this was the choice that would hurt Kenny the least: Clem and AJ would be relatively safe, and he wouldn't have to be there the next time they got in trouble or got hurt or killed. He definitely wouldn't make it through losing two more people he cared about, even if it didn't kill him. Especially if it didn't kill him.
I will probably go back and see the Jane ending, but I'll be honest--for me the Kenny/Jane choice was easy. I didn't trust Jane; she already left Clementine before, and even if she said she'd changed her mind, how would I know that she wouldn't change it back again? At least with Kenny all the cards are on the table.
It's odd, too, and I guess I should praise the writers here, because it wasn't just that I didn't want Jane around, I did want Kenny. The thing is, I cannot stand people IRL who tell me there's a right way and a wrong way to act when there's an ethical question. That's never correct; there are usually about six options and I'd rather choose my own depending on the circumstances and my own sense of what the greater good is. But even though the right/wrong thing is Kenny all over, and even though he's a profoundly broken person at this point, I still thought Clementine would be safer with him than Jane.
OK. Back to see the other endings. Curious how they'll work out.

Shot Kenny, stayed with Jane. Let the family in.

My ending sucked pretty hard... I guess there will be a fucking third season after all.
[Sigh] This is what I hoped WOULDN'T happen.

Unfortunately Luke dies at that moment no matter what you choose the deaths are just slightly different
I left Wellington to go with Kenny, could not leave my only friend from season 1 that's still alive leave me.
Same here... reassuring that Kenny told us we made the right choice. I get why Jane did what she did.
And I just couldn't turn down the family.
I'm alone with AJ and I left Jane.

In the end she hasn't forgiven Jane.
Wow! That's a big shock to me. I kinda figured you'd be able to get some sort of ending with him. I feel bad for all you Luke fans now.
I ended up with Jane at the store and turned the family away. Something I went back to when making the choices was that line from Lee about hurting others to keep the people you care about safe. It is a cold perspective of the world, but my Clem is hardened. Getting shot for trying to do right by Arvo, taking crap from Bonnie for following Luke's instructions, Mike's betrayal, and having to shoot Kenny... My little sweet pea isn't so little anymore.
It's obvious that he's gonna off himself. Check out the ending where Clem shoots him during the fight with Jane.
Kenny til the end. Fuck Jane, Arvo, Mike, and Bonnie.
I was gonna stay at Wellington, but I think my Clem and Kenny can wait a few months to get in Wellington.
I have played through two endings and I have to say that the ending with Kenny feels much more hopeful to me.
I didn't let them in, the man looked dangerous. ._.
i went with jane and let the family in.....im gonna make another save where i go with kenny tho
Kenny redeemed himself for all the bad and questionable things that he has done.

I got this ending too. I'm so glad this was the one I got

[removed]
I wish I could've convinced Jane to go to Wellington.
Killed Kenny. Stayed with Jane and turned down the people. Can't believe the Clementine quote about Carver
What if we are dangerous?
What if I am?
My ending:
I knew Jane was lying about AJ, but I chose to kill Kenny and forgive Jane. I hated what she did, but I don't think she meant for someone to die. Kenny was a good man, but this whole thing had driven him mad. From season 1 Kenny's attitude has been an issue to the group and he was becoming more and more like Carter the further he went on.
I hope they have different or slightly different stories according to the ending you got

Yeah, I think S3 Episode 1 will start differently then come together near the middle.
Same choice for me.

I thought though that Kenny had totally lost it, and when I learned about Jane's trick I abandoned her as well. I am comfortable with that choice. In a zombie apocalypse you want to be around sane, responsible people and not children.
I got the worst ending, alone. No choices, dialogue, or anything. It sucks.
I let Kenny kill Jane, and stayed at Wellington with Alvin Junior.
I was so moved by Kenny's selflessness than I couldn't bring myself to make it pointless. It would have been a lack of respect. I love Kenny, and the best way to show him was to accept his sacrifice. His wish to see Alvin Junior in a safe place is now fullfilled, and the last image I saw of him was a hero. Now he can finally be in peace.
I went with Jane, and I let the family in. I was sad about shooting Kenny, but ultimately it feels as if I made the right choice.
Jane still has her gun, you can faintly see it still. It is still disconcerting that the man has a gun and is claiming to be a father.
I stayed in Wellington and let Kenny go. That was a tough choice, but I was prompted by the previous dialogue with Lee, about sometimes you have to hurt somebody. I figured this was the choice that would hurt Kenny the least: Clem and AJ would be relatively safe, and he wouldn't have to be there the next time they got in trouble or got hurt or killed.
