Season 3 protagonist likely not Clem

edited August 2014 in The Walking Dead

After this episode (which I think is the best one yet) I'm concerned how will telltale handle multiple storylines in season 3. They never did that in any of their previous titles and I think they won't do it this time. In fact, I believe no developing studios ever did that, there was just one storyline, not multiple, because it's better for them to make one quality content instead of 2, 3 or even 4 that only 25% of players will go through.

The answer is simple - the game won't have multiple storylines, meaning that Clementine wil likely not be the main character in season 3. I know this sounds sad... but it could work, it worked when we stopped following Lee.

  • Yeah I agree I don't think it will be Clem in S3. Most likely be some new character we haven't seen before.

    Don't get me wrong I want it to be Clem I just don't think they can do it with so many people having different endings.

  • Kenny/jane dies,timeskip and boom,everyone's at the same place

  • They could make 3 story paths that come to one very quickly. (I mean like Omid's death quick) But a lot if people would complain that there choices didn't matter.

  • Lol yeah Tolispro that's one way to do it but I think that may piss off a lot of people. You know the forums would be full of "S2 was a waste of time" and "None of the decisions matter".

  • I might be in the minority with this, but I really hope Season 3 is about something entirely different. I feel as if Clem's story is just about over. I'm really happy with the ending I got, and I know that if they continued on with her, it would just ruin whatever ending we all got. I think a brand new cast would be exciting!

  • People will complain no matter what. I think your suggestion would work the best.

  • Yeah I don't think she will be the protagonist. Her story is over

  • Honestly I shot Kenny.......... Then Rewinded..

  • As much as I agree and how it looks that way I'm still hoping it'll be Clementine, I don't want to say good-bye to her. What they COULD do and what I would be totally fine with is start a new story but have the finale of Season 3 someone come together with Clem's, so we have 2 main characters we care about, if they can... it would be interesting.

  • 5 storyes = everything merge
    Or
    Christa/Lilly story = Find Clementine

  • I hope TT announce it soon. Who we will be playing in S3 or at the very least confirm that Clems story is over.

    I know we wont get any info about S3 until after the DLC for S2 is released but a guy can hope.

  • You know I honestly hoped there was an option where Clem had to either to try save herself or throw the baby to the walkers. The entire episode 5 I was hoping I could ditch the baby lol.

    Does that make me a bad person?

  • It would make all our previous decisions futile. 4 different endings with the same outcome? That's not going to work.

  • Sadly, it really is going to be difficult to make a story out of Clem's current position (since there's multiple endings) I doubt it's completely impossible though. I've said this before, but I think a story where she's a little older and taking care of AJ as a child now would be a great one since it will also be symbolically similar to the first Season when Lee took care of Clem.

    The S3 protagonist NEEDS to be Clem, I'm not satisfied with the endings I've gotten so far, and as far as I can tell I won't be with any of the others either! Don't get me wrong I loved this episode and the endings I've gotten, but not to permanently end Clem's story with.
    I think it's possible to continue too, maybe have like one/a few episodes being different depending on the ending and then end up in the same place?
    We just can't have a S3 without Clem, they NEED to find a way! Clem IS TWD game series!
