Anywhere, here's the new Nick appreciation thread because I dunno what happened to the old one.

  • Yeah I agree Nick rules.

  • Nick's awesome.

    "You mean us guys." (That melted my heart.)

  • My favourite:

  • Who doesn't love Nick? Yeah he messed up sometimes but he was such a good character otherwise.

    Damnit Telltale stop killing everyone I love :'(

  • I love that stupid kid.

  • Can we stop with threads like 'We all like x'?

    Like, I do love Nick, but it just seems unnecessarily exclusionary. Like, if someone doesn't like Nick, that's okay.

    Ohhhh Nick. What a man he was. So relatable and realistic. Is reaction to the world was so organic and complex, you can just reallllly feel the pain inside him during his prologue during A house Divide. Superb voice action and writing all around.

    Huh, this was the first post by me about Nick that didn't go "OMG NICK! HE SOOOOOOOOOOOO HOT<3 WHAT A FUCKING BABE!" (Will not THAT bad but still I'm pretty sure I have problem.)

  • Never stop believing Nick.

    Alright, what would you rather I call the thread, then? I can edit the title if need be.

  • I don't think his last name would have been Randall...?

    Randall was Pete's last name, and Pete was his mom's brother, making that his mom's maiden name. Assuming his parents were married at one point or another, he would have had his dad's last name.

  • I know I shouldn't have come here, and you guys are gonna burn me down, but I've never liked Nick. He was the last member of CG I cared about. So nope, not all of us.

  • Okay, cool.

  • But I find his character very well-written, if it counts.

  • I'm probably in the minority, but I never liked Nick. If it wasn't for him missing the shot, he would have killed an innocent 11 year old girl. Yes, I can't accept he was willing to kill, or at least severely injure a child without letting her talk.

    Later, even though Luke told him to stay behind, he still went to the bridge, and again tried to kill an innocent person without letting them talk, but didn't miss this time. Poor Matthew suffered a lot without deserving because of Nick, and no, he wasn't aiming his gun like Nick said. Sure, he might have been sorry both times, but that doesn't matter much after you've already done it, and might do something like that again.

  • Yeah, none of that's excusable, but the guy had pretty high anxiety and each time meant it in an effort to protect someone else, not to just mercilessly murder people like Carver. They were bad mistakes, but he had good intentions behind them.

    That being said I changed the title to plain old "Appreciation Thread" so people who dislike Nick don't feel compelled to come in and say so. Not exactly the purpose of this thread.

  • One of the most consistent characters in the season. Based Vanilla Ice.

  • Hold me closer, tiny danger to the group...

  • I don't see anything wrong with the title and the OP is good.

  • Eh, I changed it anyway just to play it safe. Took like two seconds. Wasn't a big deal.

  • Nick was an awesome character, I hate how I accidentally got him killed in my canon playthrough.

    Also, love that gif of Nick kicking down the door like Bigby xD

  • Nick's got some marvelous moves. His booty gives me life.

  • Yeah, especially his expresion there. He just doesn't give a fuck.

  • Found this video of all Nick's dialogue. Only 8 minutes, compare that to Kenny's 57 minutes.

  • I can put something on nuke?

  • I can't believe I'm in love with a fictional character that has only eight full minutes of dialogue in a video game.

    Yeah, he is on fourth place on the lowest amount of dialogue(of a main character), Carlos is on third place, Sarita and Alvin are on second and Pete is on first.

  • I don't understand why people love him soo much. He was an ok character but nothing great.

  • Nick deserved better than his disappointing death. So much better

  • People found him very relatable.

  • I miss Nick...I wish they have treated and handled his character better....

  • He could have died in the shotout I think that would have been better.

  • Definitely agree with this. It would have given the shoot-out more clout and Nick's death some meaning

    He could have died in the shotout I think that would have been better.

  • nick is one of the only two characters introduced in season 2 that i truly cared about, and if curious, sarah is the other. I love both of them with all my heart and was saddened that both were killed off in ep4 (and thats not even why i hate that episode). Nick meant so much to me, he literally reminded me of myself and how id act in every situation hes put in. And even during the times i didnt feel similar to him, i cared so much about who he was and his feelings towards everything. Either him or Sarah should have survived s2, but neither did.

  • 8 minutes worth of dialogue, and he's still one of S2's most developed characters

    Pretty crazy to think about

  • In all fairness, a lot of people also talked ABOUT him. A great deal of Pete's dialogue is about Nick.

  • So Nick's dialogue goes something like this: 2 and a half minutes for episode 1, 4 and a half minutes for episode 2,1 minute for episode 3
    and 1 second for episode 4. Compare that to Ben's 27 minutes..... Pretty sad actually....

  • Thank you Nick for almost killing Clementine, Thank you for trying to get Clementine wasted in the shack, and thanks for killing Matthew.

  • COME ON GUYS, WE NEED 12 SUPPORTERS LEFT! WE'RE ALMOST TO 200! JUST NEED MORE SUPPORTERS!!!!
