Season 3 - Hopes and Predictions.
Walking Dead Season 3 Hopes and Predictions.
Hello there! I'd like to introduce myself to the forums, and wanted to make my first thread as good as possible, I've been waiting to do this for a while now, so I'd appreciate any comments left, and any feedback given. Cheers!
I am aware someone has made a thread about this recently, so I apologise to the creator of that thread, but I didn't want to leave a long-winded reply, but I'd like to show my views and opinions on what I think is yet to come.
Author's Notes: BEWARE! - this discussion will contain spoilers about the endings and episodes of The Walking Dead, if you have not finished the games, I'd highly advise doing so. Read at your own risk!
Also, I don't want this to turn into a war about anything or any of the endings. Especially about Kenny and Jane.
These hopes in the following paragraphs are reflected upon my choices during The Walking Dead. So, they may not necessarily be the same as yours. Please bear that in mind before giving me abuse, or trying to correct me.
As 2015 approaches, one thing is clear. We will see a third season of The Walking Dead. There are so many paths the story could take, and so many new things are yet to be experienced.
I for one, cannot wait. There are so many twists and turns that I am awaiting to wander down, and I have no doubt that it will be an emotional rollercoaster. Now that Season Two has drawn it's curtain, I have a few hopes that I would like to see in the next chapter.
Returning Characters:
Firstly, I'd like to go over characters that I'd like to see return - I'm not going to go over the ones that I ended Season 2 with, those are self-explanatory. However, for those who are interested, I am with Kenny and AJ.
Christa - Something tells me Christa's story isn't finished. To me, she escaped from that forest and is in hiding somewhere, or looking for Clem. I don't think we've seen the last of Christa just yet. I at least hope she is back, I was really starting to like her character.
Molly - During Molly's short time with the group, I really enjoyed her company. She truly was an awesome character, who's story and company were too short-lived. I really do hope we get to see her again, that is, if you didn't shoot her.
Lilly - Lilly's character was a magnificent one, and I could see her having some good potential in the series. I was disappointed when she left, and she did care for the group, whether she had to or not. However, whether my ending with Kenny is a smart choice for this, could be a hurdle to pass. Regardless of who I'm with, I really would like to see her again, and hope that she is still alive.
Glenn - This is perhaps the most far-fetched return of them all, but Glenn doesn still have an unknown status. I doubt he will come back, after being missing for two whole seasons. I suppose if he happens to randomly find the group (of three) again it really wouldn't made much sense, but he was cool whilst he was around, and should he come back, I would welcome him.
Mike / Bonnie - Whether we ever see these characters again is a good question to ask, however if they did come back, I think there would be some things that we wanted to know. If we do find them, it could take a different angle of the story, and on trust. I doubt they will make much of an impact if they came back, but could be exciting to see where this road leads.
Arvo - We need revenge on this guy. He wanted us dead, and after the last scene with him - I want him dead. If we see him again, it will most likely be on luck. I can't see the story going anywhere with him, and he certainly won't try and make friends with us.
Hoped for Scenes and Mentions:
Secondly, I have a few ideas for what scenes I'd like to see during Season 3.
Kenny Death Scene - I really don't want for the game to come to this, but I feel with Telltale, it's going to. Should the worst come to worst, I would want Kenny to have a peaceful sendoff,
one where he can reflect over his life, have his last conversation with Clementine, and say his final farewell to both Clem, and AJ. I don't want Kenny to have the death of Omid, as I feel he is the last 'father-figure' that Clem will truly have. I don't want them to copy Lee's death, but I would like to give him one last hug, one final conversation, and a peaceful goodbye, whilst hand in hand.Omid Mentions - I really want Omid to be at least mentioned in Season 3. He was one of my favourite characters, and got killed off so cheaply and was never spoken about again, other than with Christa, which was once.
- If I could have my dream season, I'd have Omid come back, despite his status. The bullet might of hit his heart, or narrowly missed, but I would love so much for Omid to make a return.
Lee Scene - I don't want to sound like a complete fanboy for Lee, but I don't think he was truly shot by Clem. You can hear him breathe after the shot, and you can just see the gun pull away from his head. Maybe he was shot, I don't know, but if we could see him in some shape or form, just to keep him 'alive' and progress the story, I think that would be brilliant.
Those are just a few of my ideas, all of which, will probably never come true, but it's always good to hope, and have faith.
Thanks for reading!
Please leave your ideas and thoughts about your hopes and predictions for Season 3.
- Confuzzled.
Comments
If Kenny hadn't returned in season 2, I'd love to see Christa back. But because he did, I think bringing Christa back would be far too similar. I think she should be left missing and assumed dead mainly for that reason. Bringing Lilly back would seem to make much more sense to me. She was a very strong character, was left very much alive and there are many roles she could play.
Glenn, however, likely couldn't return. He's a main character in the comic series and his full story plays out there. They could write a cameo I guess if he went out somewhere but it would be very difficult to do that without wondering why he never mentioned the encounters in the comics. So I'd say that's highly unlikely.
I do have a feeling we'll see Mike back.
I'd like to see genuinely branching story lines. A bit chapter 2 of The Witcher 2. That is, the same events take place but are seen from a different perspective, depending on your ending.
I would really like to see Christa or Lily again in season 3. I know that determinant characters eventually have to die but hopefully Kenny or Jane could live longer in season 3 and really have an impact and make our choices of who we are with at the ending really matters. I have a strong feeling that Arvo may return in season 3. Also I highly doubt Glenn would return in S3. Also hoping there are more suspense scenes and action just like in season 1 and the characters we encounter throughout S3 will have more depth and personality to them just like all the characters in S1.
Dude, a lot of people still haven't read the comics and that spoiler is about as big as they come.
That is a great point you have brought up there, I didn't think of the Christa-Kenny returns being the same. As much as I'd like to see her again, maybe her fate will never be revealed. I also completely agree with you about Lilly, she has (she did have) an RV, she has a strong will, and was a great character.
I can also see Mike coming back, when or where however, I don't know, but I can see his return.
Sorry about that.... Edited my earlier comment.
Genius! Yeah I would really love that too. Really hoping telltale games would do just that.
Lilly,Mike(Bonnie),Arvo Id like to see as you said trust would be an issue.
Honestly Im happy imaging the others are alive as I was with Kenny until he was brought back to
No problem. Appreciate the edit. I knew by the way but it's a big moment so hope the surprise can be saved for some. Still, spoilers tend to flow pretty freely here.
Glenn died in the comic's. He was the same Glenn from the game.
Again, thank you for pointing it out. It was never my intention to spoil anything.
In regards to your comments on Kenny, I would like for Kenny to make a return, if only for a definite departure.
Nate needs to make a comeback.
What would we revenge? Him not wanting to die?
Honestly, if Telltale actually did this, I wouldn't even question it.
Me neither. I would worship them as gods.
Maybe they could do Bobby Ewing on him:

If you're confused, apparently this Bobby character was killed off, and then they just made up it was all a dream XD
Yeah Glenn died around the same time Season 2 starts.
Who would question it? There are some factors that could lead to him surviving... I just want him to come back
A Nate and Clem interaction. I've been wondering how these two would get along. I think my Clem would first look at Nate as unnerving but then warm up to him.
Molly Return
A zombified Kenny or Jane that Clementine puts down
More fight scenes
More Characters
Me too, he was such a good character. I'd give my right toe nail for him to come back alive.
...seriously I banged the nail on my toe today, it really hurts.
That sounds painful, but if it would bring your sacrifice would be appreciated.
How did you bang your nail, or was it your toe as well?
I banged it really awkwardly when I was climbing on my bed. I have this small laptop desk thing I use and it's made of wood. My nail was already kinda odd because it'd gotten bruised, but I really hit the edge of it badly, the pain was literally like getting a nail driven through my toe and I don't even mean that as a pun. It keeps weeping and feels like the nail will fall off.
So yesh, very painful. I'm scared to touch it. But hey, it'll be a good sacrifice! T.T
I could see this happening, Nate did try to help Russell during 400 days, so he does care for the 'child' characters. I haven't really thought too much about the 400 days characters linking in, but I guess they could meet at Howe's/Wellington - leading to an interesting story route.
I could not agree more. Molly was such a great character, and I felt her and Jane were very similar. They were both experts of survival, I just felt Molly cared for the group as a whole, and I felt I could trust her. Like yourself, I would love for her to return.
For this idea, I don't exactly know what you mean. There are two ways I feel this could go: Kenny/Jane get bitten whilst with you, and they fight alongside you until the end, where you have to put them out of their misery, or, you find whichever one you killed zombified, and end them then. I would prefer to find the other one around somewhere, as I would prefer for the one you stayed with to be given a peaceful sending off, that's if you're not alone of course.
I can see why. The fight scenes we had in S2 really kept me on the edge of my seat, and I'd love to feel some more suspense like that again, especially that of Kenny and Jane.
You can't have TWD without new characters! Knowing Telltale, I'll try not to get too attached anymore - every time we do, and we think we're safe - nope! They're dead.
Thanks for the reply of your ideas!
Start with Kenny or Jane(the one you saved) or Clem alone(or a returning character from seas 1) , and choosing her alone is always an option.
Jane and Kenny and Clem all have their own advantages which results in differrent approaches at scenes , and the one you killed at the end of seas 2 will stalk you through seas3 or maybe Lee will stalk you looking like my avatar.
So, maybe during the episode the camera keeps showing the zombified Kenny/Jane will be following you? That's an interesting idea, I'd like to see how that works!
Could be a good plan in the beginning but you also can think (s)he is dead after dodging and "killing" him/her multiple times and then he/she suddenly returns with half a head/No arm/Legs an crawling towards you ala terminator 1(St Johns farm the crawler at the tractor) at the end or something and mix it up with the iron guy from resident evil2(but not a iron guy but just a lucky zombie that falls through walls using boxes and breaks doors by accident) who breaks through doors/walls.
And what you say is also a good plan , making it a timed event which you have to complete in time or Clem/Kenny/Jane dies
Well I hope your nail doesn't fall off... It sounds like it really hurt
Would it be bad to say that I want a different PC in the next season? I could never get comfortable with the whole group relying on Clem to be the most sane and capable person in the group.
I wouldn't say that's bad, we're all entitled to our own opinions, and I can understand where you are coming from. The game does consist of adults relying on a 11 year old child.
I would LOVE to see Lily back. I think she was an awesome character with a lot of depth, which not many characters didn't had besides Kenny. I really liked the sisters on 400 days I want them in season 3. We definitely need more fights and suspense wether its within a group like Kenny/Jane. I know Lee cant return but I would like for Clem to mention Lee more or at least remember some of the things Lee did ( not killing the St. Johns, Stealing from the van, and Lee's last words to her ) I want Lee to have more influence on her. I hope are choices have more influence within the group, I know she's a little girl but i like Season 1 choices where Kenny/Lily were affected and react and remember your choices throughout the season
I didn't really think much of the sisters as we really didn't have enough time with them. I wouldn't mind if they came back of not, but I feel if they did, we wouldn't really know much about them, and I don't feel they would fit in with the others.
Lee mentions are a great idea, and would show that Lee had a huge impact on Clem, and that she still remembers everything he taught her, and cares about him.
Thanks for the reply!
I do have hopes for season 3, but as predictions go I am not going make any, I am not good at them to began with. but I hope the next time walking comes up I want enjoy the moment as much as possible. Those people who do make predictions I hope they work out and that deams/ ideas are dashed when aren't
I am sure some people make a face like this when season 3 comes around -->
i have a bunch of ideas but too lazy to write. but ima keep it short. i want the premier episode to be at least two hours.well the 1st the 3rd and last episodes to be the longest. with either the premier or the finale to be the longest ones.
kenny or jane not to die like fucking bromid- cmon TT wtf.and for them to be impactful and last till the last episode (maybe 4th) christa.
maybe some group that doesnt die completly. and maybe new location??? also more brutality. i know some people will not agree, but this is the apocalypse, twd universe shit is gonaa hapen. group vs group. nit something like in the comic that'll last all season, but some comflict ( nate fans im looking at you, yall know i dont give a shit about nate, but maybe we bring that crazy fuck back for this)
I certainly hope mine work out, and I can completely agree as to why you don't want to make any. However, knowing Telltale, our dreams will may well be slashed immediately ;p. - R.I.P Omid.
I wouldn't count myself out of making that face during the next season.
Thanks for the reply!
I could not agree more, we need a powerful beginning, middle and end to the story, and it will hopefully be something that keeps us on the edge of our seats, right until the very end.
Yes! They should not have killed Omid off that fast, and they certainly should not do it to Kenny/Jane. Whether they will last until episode 4, for me, I don't think will happen. Hopefully they do, and I appreciate your prediction, but for me, as much as I'd like them to, I doubt they'll make it.
This, I like this. This paragraph has some pretty cool and unique ideas. Firstly, I'd love for a some group members to actually stay alive for the whole season. Not just 1 or 2 survivors. More brutality would be popular, considering how many people watched Kenny beat down Carver. It is beginning to become more and more brutal as we progess, so hey, we might get more in season 3. Finally, group vs group. This would be a fantastic idea. They could fight, kidnap members of each group, stealing supplies, etc. There are so many routes that idea could take, and I'd like to see.
You have some cool ideas, I appreciate you sharing them - let's hope they happen!
Thanks for the reply!
Good for you, hope it works out for you.
first. how do you do that?? highlight and respond to the certain things you highlighted?? and yeah the 1st middle and end should be the longest, and again idk which should be longer, the premier or the finale. and either kenny and jane should last cmon they just didnt make us pick just to kill them in a minute, but i can see why it would be hard for TT to write so much different story lines but cmon that would be awesome. and the last paragraph it was suppose to be longer and better explained, now i cant remember the rest lol, but yeah i think they should stick to short time villians it has work well on this game. i mean if it has another time skip people would become more fucked up. but i also like what @marioluigi344 said, should have some redemption theme in this. and thank you im glad you liked it:)
Firstly, sorry for the amount of time it has taken to reply to this comment. I haven't gotten on to my PC in quite some time.
Okay, so for this you are going to first need to click the reply button. Next you should see some tabs above the reply box. Click on the one with the quotation marks (") and a little bullet point (>) will pop up in your reply box. Whichever text you wish to highlight, you copy and paste that next to the bulletpoint. Then click enter two times, and you will have highlighted some text ;p - hopefully you can understand this - if not, I'll try again. Hope this helps!
After thinking, I think a powerful, impactful premiere of the season will be a great idea. Something to pull us in, and keep us there. The finale should be a decent length, but should be emotional and something we will remember and think about even after the season has finished.
This is a good point. Last time I was slightly critical and putting out what I thought would happen. I would love more than anything for Kenny to live throughout the season, and like you, don't think that Telltale would go through all of this with these characters, just to kill them off fast. Maybe they will, I just hope they don't.
The villains we have had so far in this game have been brilliant, as few as there have been. But yeah, we should keep them short-term but with a good enough story and plot. And the redemption theme would be a great idea. Try and get back whatever is left.
Once again, thanks for the reply, I appreciate it!

I'm sure Mike will return and I make this theory...Where did Arvo get the bag full of medicine and the two bag from the house? The answer is Wellington ,it might have check Wellington first time and then again 2x and they know they are gonna accept them after they have 2 bags of food water etc
