Why do people keep making stuff up about Jane?

  • Because haters gonna hate.

    Yes, because if Jane had cared, she'd have just smiled prettily and continued humoring a man who was wanting to take a newborn child (who needs formula to survive, and they had very little left) and an 11 year-old child off on some wild goose chase through the driving snow and winter cold to an unknown camp in an unknown location, one that that might end up just being a rumor and not even existing at all, or may be filled with crazies even worse than Carver even if it is there.... yeah, that's logical, and so much more of a better choice than taking them southwards to a warmer place, to a camp you KNOW exists and has formula for the baby. Sure, Jane must have not cared at all. And really, humoring unstable people so you don't "keep getting them mad" (no matter the price), is so much more important than the value of innocent human life, too.

    Hey, you know... maybe it's not unresolved personal issues at all, at least not as that phrase is commonly used. Maybe it IS just plain old, straight up, bad morals. :P

  • I didn't claim to support any of those statements, I was just saying that the particular claim, "for irrational people, feelings equals facts", that feelings aren't necessarily always irrational. Feeling a certain way based on false beliefs when one knows the beliefs to be false, that's irrational.

    CHUCK YAUCK WE JUST STOOPID CASE WE DONT BELVE JQANES LIES,

    Btw i am the stupid person who thinks that Jane is a manipulating narcissistic woman. According to OP he stole something i had wrote in another thread discussing her character to another Forum Member.

    OP , if you want to cut and paste from my original post, why not include the whole thing. It makes me laugh, when people tell me she isn't Manipulative.

  • True enough, but there's a difference between exaggerating and outright lying.

    Translation: I am too immature to accept someone else's interpretation of my "favorite" character, so i make a post to flame/incite people to flame me, so i can play the victim.

    she certainly wasn't making up her sister's tragic death.

    TBH no one knows for sure.

    i do know this, she will lie about a baby being dead.

    What else will she lie about?

    Guess what i think?

  • That´s true but this topic has been used time and time again and it doesn´t seem like there´s even any new arguments on either side...it´s just looping the same stuff over and over.

  • Well actually, people aren't making stuff up. They're are just interpreting the facts. So, some people think Jane's expressions, body language and the things she says are manipulative while other people think she doesn't care about anybody because she leaves and some of the things she says suggests it.

    Therefore, if you think about it; people are just taking the information and suggesting what it means because the game doesn't explain it.

  • 2 reasons.

    1. It's been a few months since release, so people's memory tend to go and they don't remember scenes right or miss important details. But they continue to post what they thought happened and spread misinformation.

    2. People tend to over-embellish what actually happened. Whether it be to help their side of the argument or just to hate on the character.

    Other than that the problem could be you (not @MerakMissile2 exactly) just interpreting an opinion wrong.

    We also don't know Chuck was a hobo, we don't know Kenny was a fisherman, we don't know Carley was a journalist or that Lilly snapped. Hell, maybe Lilly made it up to gain sympathy? We don't know Hans Gruber's motive was really just the money.

    You see what I'm getting at? In a linear progressive plot, we have to initially trust the word of anyone that isn't evil on principle unless proved otherwise. The only place I've heard that Jane is lying is on a forum site, nowhere In the game does anyone mention that Jamie is a lie or fabrication. So although possible, it's no probable. There's no evidence anywhere in the game or conversation that she'd make up her sister.

    Guess what i think?

    Well, I know you don't like her. Which I can't say I particularly do either.

    Deflection? We are talking about Jane and her track record of lying, i don't understand what Hans Gruber has to do with Jane.

    You mean when she lied about AJ being dead?

    Well, I know you don't like her. Which I can't say I particularly do either.

    That connection they had to establish felt extremely forced with Jane, i didn't care for her to be honest, by the time she shot Troy, i despised her, i liked how she was written though to some degree. I feel they made her over the top though, At the same token i'm not a blind Kenny fan either, he just gets away with more, because he has been around since the beginning. He is dead now anyways, so both characters are moot.

  • Jane is my most hated character of the entire game. She is the reason Sarah is dead. She teaches Clem to leave her own friends behind. Jane didn't even help to get Sarah moving, she just gave up on her quickly. I hate selfish people, manipulaters and liars. I had no regrets killing her, this was for Sarah.

  • +10 points for the most respectable debate on the Kenny vs Jane argument fellas. Was a good read :)

    Jane this! Kenny that! It's a far too-heated debate on these forums, Everyone has their own opinion so not everyone sees things the same way

  • It is just a sign of how great she was if her character sucked there would be no reason to bother the same with Kenny.

  • Yeah, i think another reason i dislike her, is because of how she acts towards Kenny and Sarah, antagonizing someone i really care about and basically leaving another for dead is not something i'd ever do.

    Kenny was an out of control maniac who beat the living hell out of a child repeatedly (Arvo), and could have ended up with two more children dead (Clem and AJ), based on his personal obsessions, and on his complete and utter inability to listen to reason because his "feels" trumped everything, including basic logic. The only thing Kenny was right about is that if you shoot him when he's fighting with Jane, he admits that he's completely lost it and is too far gone before he dies.

    And as for most of the rest of the group towards the end, let's recap:

    Bonnie - An ex-junkie who betrays you.

    Mike - Aids and abets Bonnie in her betrayal.

    Arvo - Pissed off, freaked out, and shot Clem.

    Luke - Already dead.

    Kenny - Out of his goddamn mind.

    AJ - A little baby who cannot survive on his own at all, in any way, shape or form.

    Frankly, Jane was better (more competent, capable, stable, and trustworthy) than anyone else in the group by that point, aside from Clem. :P

  • If people hate or love character so much, they tend to over exagerate facts to make others want to despise or love those certain characters.

    "Jane/Kenny thinks of Clem as only a replacement" when really they just grew regular attatchment to her

    "Jane/Kenny was completely responsible for the fight" when really both of them are responsible, maybe one more than the other as some people claim

    "Jane never shuts up about dead sister stories!" when really she's talked about her twice in relevent situations (Getting to know Clementine and how Sarah was similar to Jamie)

    "kenny dindu nufin he good boy, Arvo was Stalin incarnated" when really there isn't anything good or not horrible that Kenny did in handling Arvo, and while he wasn't a saint or right for shooting Clem, his entire group was killed by us, he was robbed, beaten mercilessly, and because of little interactions we got with him he believes we killed her wounded sister who was actually a zombie.

    "Jane manipulated Luke to have sex with her" when really dey both wanted sum fuk

  • I never liked Jane, she didn't care about anyone but herself, she abandoned Clem multiple times. She is the reason Sarah is dead and the reason Arvo ambushed Clem group. She doesn't even know how to save helpless people.

  • I respect Jane, because she did come back for Clementine. Remember, "You're probably 90% why I came back," (Even though the other 10% was Luke).

  • She is the reason Sarah is dead

    That's a lie. Sarah's dead because the writers chose to have her stand on the deck for no reason, when it made far more sense for her to be inside. Sarah's dead because everyone forgot they had ammo when Jane tries to rescue her. Jane is the only one who even tries if you tell her to.

  • Jane doesn't "make" Clem do anything. Clementine chooses what to do. She can save Sarah, or leave her behind on her own accord.

    For the record, Jane doesn't "make" anyone do anything. Luke easily could have refused, and remembered his duties as lookout, instead of thinking with his pants.

    she made Luke an offer making him ditch his own job thus letting the walkers get close

    Ok really, I love both Jane and Luke but I can't understand how people keep thinking this is without a doubt Jane's fault. First off, we don't know exactly what Luke and Jane said to each other as it was never explicitly stated what they said to each other in that observation deck. In addition, Luke clearly knew what his job was. In the scene before everyone split up to do their jobs, Jane walked away immediately, saying, "I'll check the building by the river" and is not seen again the rest of that scene. And Jane left before Luke ever announced his duty to check the perimeter for walkers (a duty which he assigned to himself!) to everyone, minus possibly Jane. The rest of the group had guns; when Jane and Luke were together, Jane could've assumed some of the rest of the group was on duty if Luke never mentioned what his specific job was to Jane. If it was anyone's fault that the group was caught off guard by walkers that we can be absolutely sure of, it was most definitely, at the very least, Luke's, as he knew he had a job to do, and he instead accepted Jane's offer. The only way he couldn't have gotten away was if she forcibly had her way with him, and that just plain didn't happen. ("She made me an offer and I accepted.") If the guy had really wanted to do his duty, he would have been able to shrug Jane off and protect everyone, like he'd said he was going to.

  • Before episode 5, I was hating on Luke more than Jane, I blamed him for Nick and Sarah's death, he seemed to not care about his best friend when he died, his reaction was just "Fuck..fuck" despite being his friend for 20 years and he seemed that he wanted to leave Sarah to die, leave his own friend behind,I thought he promised Carlos to look after her and I did blame him for accepting Jane's offer.

    1) What percentage is there in beating the hell out of a former opponent that is now helpless, and a child to boot? If you're going to kill him than kill him, but wailing the snot out of him "just 'cuz" is senseless brutality and nothing else.

    2) We have no way of knowing what they would have done, if Jane hadn't threatened Arvo. Would they have been friendlier, or would they have taken a 'survival of the fittest' mindset and tried to kill Clem's group anyway? No way to know for sure, but I lean towards the latter, because they sure didn't seem too friendly, even before Arvo mentioned running into Jane and Clem previously.

    3) I had been actively looking for a way to leave Kenny myself, before the brawl between she and Kenny even took place. Hell, when Kenny was out with all those stalled/abandoned cars in the snow, I was trying my damnedest to find a 'drive the hell away' option, but couldn't. So how could I fault Jane for wanting to get the hell away from him, too?
