How can you be sure Nate is still alive? The Swamp Monster or Cthulhu could've got him for all we know.
Man, they always be snatching up our people in TWD.
More like 5 years, actually. Season 2 (which began in late 2013 but ended in 2014) was approximately 2 years after the first one (2012), and I'm guessing Clementine will be 13 or so in the next one if it begins in late 2015 and ends in 2016. Keep in mind that Season 2's time-skip occurred BEFORE the comics did - while at this point the comics are a year ahead of the video-game, this doesn't exclude the next season from ageing Clem up significantly.
Making her an actual teenager would be more interesting than keeping her a little child.
I'd like to assume he is still alive and well. He had a truck, ammo, food and gas its enough for me.
Um the video game is exactly parralel with the comic timeline wise. According to TWD Wiki's Video Game Timeline Season 2 Ends on day 869. That's 2 years and 4 months in that would be shortly after the events of All Out War in the comics.
Unless they do another large time skip, I don't think so. There was a 3 month gap between Episodes 1 and 2 of Season 1, an approximate 8 month jump from the end of No Time Left to All That Remains and then another 16 month skip. That's about 27 months, a little over 2 years in. They'd have to jump another 21 months for it to be a whole 4 years.
Did you read the part where I said Season 2's time-skip occurred in real-life BEFORE the comics did?
TBH, I think being limited by Kirkman prevents Telltale from developing Clem more meaningfully. Personally I don't want to wait 5 years for Clem to stop being a kid.
And to be completely honest? There really isn't any reason NOT to have a time-skip. The video-games will NEVER have a meaningful crossover with the comics, Kirkman will NEVER introduce any interesting country-spanning developments (i.e. a cure/zombies getting smarter/some actual fucking civilization) into the universe that'd mean anything to the video-game, and by this point the games really have branched into their own entity.
I admit, it would be really cool to see Clementine as an adult, but our chances of seeing that happen are slim to none. Kirkman's not going to jump further in the comics just to help Telltale out and I doubt Telltale will even be making Walking Dead games in like 5 years. I would love to see Clementine as an adult, maybe as the leader of her own group of survivors, but it's not likely to happen. But it's still interesting to see the apocalypse from the viewpoint of a child, we play as the adult so many times in this game we don't often see what it's like for a child to grow up in this type of world, which is what makes (for me at least) Clementine as the PC very interesting.
how do you know itll be 4 years? right now there only about 2 years into the apocalypse.
Its still irrelevant time wise they match up neck and neck story line wise
Hi im Lee XD.Clementine ill always be with you.
Ok im just pulling your guys legs.
So anyway whos Nate???
Lee? You've been away and missed so much
Kenny's determinant. He'll be omid'd
And you know that how? Do you have some sort of secret access to the writing room that you know right off the bat Kenny, or Jane, will get the same treatment as Omid or are you making a judgment on what may happen in S3 just because of your ill feelings towards S2?
Uh I think he's joking... hopefully.
How do we know they will do another time skip? Telltale could just immediately play it right where they left off or do only do few months for all we know. Granted I'm not sure how I feel about any amount of time skip in TWD (I just want to watch Clem grow up without missing anything).
Also I wonder if we'll see less zombies if they do the max time skip? Shouldn't the majority of them be starved to death by now?
It will always be a constant so many people have been infected it would take life times to rid them. Although less is possible. In the comics Rick's group set up their own civilization.
I can understand that more walkers can always be created since everyone is infected and they are obviously more survivors out there dying every day. But the numbers of walkers have to be dwindling since the ratio to walker and humans have to be off by the max time skip. I imagine that the walkers would start starving and/or be mostly dead since it's harder to find humans as people adapt to the zombie apocalypse. But it's hard to get a real good view on how much the population of America is walker or human so I could be wrong on this completely.
By this point it's become clear that the appeal of the games is to continue Clementine's story. But is there really any vision, any end-goal in mind, or is it just another pointless cash-cow like Kirkman's series is? If the series really is about a girl coming of age in a world infested with cannibalistic corpses, then I don't want another season of pointless padding like Season 2 was. I want to see Clem mature, I want to see her be a young woman, I don't want her to remain static.
Lee's story was always meant to end with him being redeemed by dying to save a little girl. But what's Season 2? A bunch of meandering that's further muddled-up by the ill-advised idea of giving her multiple endings. Why, oh why, would Telltale do this to themselves if they plan to continue Clementine's story?
No, I'm saying that because he's determinant. Every determinant character so far has been brushed off to the side like they never existed.
Carley or Doug weren't necessarily pushed off to the side, especially Carley. Both of them actually play a major role in the episodes they were in, and it's because of Carley that Lee can tell people about his past. Carley is a great example of a determinant character, maybe the writers will make Kenny or Jane be like Carley where they still play a somewhat major role but will eventually be killed off.
Carley was still somewhat brushed to the side, but to a lesser extent, she still had less lines and screen time than she did in episode 1.
What if there was a DLC about Kenny or Jane????That wouldve been awesome.
Yes, I do think it's time to see her as a teenager, maybe 14 or 15 even. But I'm also interested in seeing how she protected Aj for X amount of years. Maybe the DLC could focus on that if season 3 jumps ahead
I think season 2 is a good way of showing that sometimes the main goal IS just to stay alive. And wherever Clem ends up, most of us want to see how Clem got there
Given the choice in season 2, the DLC should've focused on Jane and her sister and ended with us leaving Jaime behind, as she tells Clementine
Personally I got enough of her and "her sister" in Amid The Ruins
Jane and Kenny are gonna get Carleyd
My predictions of when S3 will come in early spring and release in the summer
(the wolf among us might release in 2016)
