    Gotta do advance future planning ya know :p
    Seriously i mean...
    (quoting my own previous cmnt to check if others agree):

    Checking in on Clementine

    Sure as hell sounds like they're treating her like a side charecter. I mean seriously, did ttg forget that the wd WE GAMERS KNOW is ALL.ABOUT.CLEM

    (whatever 'close to comics' stuff he spoke)

    Dont fuck a great series up telltale. We want a ttg storyline just like it has been for past 4-5 years. Dont add any other 'new' charecter like Michonne to ur original wd (i love michonne but the original series must stay undistubed by 'new protagonists' and stuff)

    return of a fan favorite character (ttg blog)

    Fans dont want you to give us more of clem coz we want, fans xpect you to KNOW that clem's story must continue bcoz the we want it to!

    AND WHY THE HELL IS TTG LIKE

    clem is back, return of clem, we'll see clem again

    CLEM WAS NEVER LOST OR FORGOTTEN DAMMIT! In all endings of s2 EVERYONE KNOWS IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE STORY HASNT ENDED AND THERE IS A LOT MORE FOR THAT PRE-TEEN GIRL!

    in simple words:
    NOT SO IMPRESSED BY THIS INTERVIEW JUST BCOZ HE TRIED TO CONNECT THE COMICS WITH GAMES AND TREAT CLEM AS A OLD CHARACTER WHO'S 'RETURNING' IN S3. WE DONT NEED CONFIRMATION THAT WE'LL SEE HER IN S3 AGAIN. it'd be better if he only repeated that s3 is coming this year and 'CUT'!

    These r my thoughts on intrvw

  • I'm looking forward to playing as Clementine. I need to see her summon her inner BigB Wolf and Asher Forester. We had the BigB Wolf door kick in season 2 now we need the Asher Forster Grin and head-butt.

  • I agree. People say they want to see all the minutiae that happens in betweentimes but thats when the word filler gets thrown around.

    Not necessarily. Any good storyteller knows to focus on events that will be most interesting.

  • Exactly, why do people fail to get this???

    S1 is really Clem's story. We play from Lee's POV, but it's essentially Clementine's story. I'll play regardless, but Clem better be the PC.

  • Ah, people… ¯_(ツ)_/¯

  • Them being in the same universe does not mean that they are connected. Hershel and Glenn were just cameos, and even if Lilly hadn't been retconned, it would still have not been a major connection and more like an extended cameo.

  • Well, Kirkman said that S3 will be in the same time frame the comics are in now and that the comic story would have more of an effect on S3. They're def connected.

  • No, it doesn't but Kirkman once said that events from Telltale's The Walking Dead actually happened in the comic universe. Those storyline's, apart of cameos, are connected because of the world they are sharing and nothing more than that.

    Yes, I'm aware that they're canon to one another, but the groups are still very different people in very different places. There's no reason for them to meet other than plot.

  • Her season 1 age was 9 the time skip was 16 months, her bday must be in the first 6 months = 11yrs

    While I thought Clementine being the main character was cool, I do have one nit pick: dialogue. If anyone wanted to learn more about Clem,

  • Yes, by canon. The events that happen in the game happen simultaniously to something else in the comics. But until now, they were only loosely connected by two comic cameos (excluding Michonne). It sounds like Season 3 will change that, though.

  • No one? That's a pointless argument. Season 2 is an example of how not to do a timeskip. Season 3 is probably not even fully written. No one can know how good it will be.

  • Oh, you mean that way. Of course, yes I agree with you 100%. I mean, yeah they share the same world but still I'd like those storylines to remain seperate, be their own things instead of mixing it or anything like that.

    I hope that the next group Clementine meets doesn't face extinction like the last two. Oh, and I hope that the next group doesn't rely on Clementine to do everything for them. Wouldn't it be awesome to have a group Clementine is in that doesn't face extinction by the end of the season? Like a group similar to Ricks?

    I also hope that season three injects the fact that people are the threat, not the dead. This season better give Clementine the sense that in order to survive, you need to kill humans.

  • Me too. I also hope Clementine doesn't get portrayed as a teen mom with a toddler. Something about that unsettles me.

  • Yes, it would be nice for some of the NPCs to not die by the end of the season. In S1 it was fine b/c the story was leading up to Clem being the PC, but in S2 I felt like a lot of the drama was forced.

    I really hope we get a few people that survive a season, Almost as much as I want choice to actually matter

    Yes please. I hope they don't mess around with antagonists this season and make them last for an episode. Carver proved as a promising villain in the first two episodes but once we were in episode three, I felt everything go downhill. He had so much potential and it was just thrown away. And yeah, I fully agree with you on survivor groups Clementine encounters - Telltale should focus on groups more often. It'd be awesome if they managed to make us actually fall in love with every single character in our group similar to how the TV show does it so if we do meet Clementine's demise, we can hopefully carry on with the story of The Walking Dead.

    Also, it's almost been two years into the apocalypse now(I think?). Telltale better introduce threats similarly to the Wolves, or the Saviours. Humans should be the ones to fear, not walkers. I pray that season three won't be Clementine and others clenching a knife in fear because of one walker in the way.

    Close comics to say Clem will be 13-14 and not 15+ . Carl is 13 now so Clem will be even 12-13 years old because is CLOSE not after comics ... she can't be more 14 ... right?

  • Clementine is a year older than carl so if carl is 13 she could be 14+.

    You did not understand. Clementine was bigger than Carl in season 3, if Season 3 was exactly where comics, but it will be close to the comics, then Clementine can be 12-13 not more than 14

    Clementine is a year older than carl so if carl is 13 she could be 14+.

  • I think a riot is a really dumb idea , and I want Clem to be the PC.

  • I hope Clementine is the protagonist, If she's not then I probably won't buy no offense.

  • Remember that katy perry song "the one that got away" although it was about katy's lover but still u can kinda relate it to lee :'(

  • Guys chill out and stop being nerds for a while the game isn't out yet geez we will have to wait and see

  • Someone told me about the news about Clementine coming back in season 3. Which isn't a surprise i guess. But if it is going to be a older clementine and not pick up where season 2 left off, that pretty much throws all of your decisions that you made in season 2 out of the window. Unless you just see them reflected back at you in prop form, similar to "the stranger" at the end of Season 1.

    Just when you thought your decisions in these games matters, Telltale trolls you yet again!

  • They aren't ignoring Season 2 endings according to the Mashable interview:


    There are so many branching possibilities in those final minutes of Season 2 that it's hard to imagine Season 3 picking up where the story left off. Which thread would it choose? Selecting just one to exist as "canon" would rob the other choices of their meaning, and that's not what Telltale is about.

    "When we got to Season 2, we had a plan in the back of our minds of how we would make all these endings keep those threads going forward," Telltale Games CEO Kevin Bruner told Mashable.

    Season 3 will take an "unexpected" approach, according to Bruner. Lots of people in the fan community are expecting something that neatly ties together all the possible threads, but Bruner promised that it won't be nearly so obvious.

    "From a role-playing, interactive storytelling point of view, it is not from the bag of tricks that we've ever shown anybody before," he said.

    "The way that we're dealing with and validating and retaining all those different playthroughs is really cool and unexpected and, I think, pretty innovative from the storytelling point of view.
