  • Walking Dead is actually the title they are most likely to continue simplfying; it's what attracted their larger audience and made Telltale become popular and mainstream. Walking Dead is what made Telltale's more cinematic games popular in the first place. If anything, it's much more likely they will make an exception for the other games than they would for Walking Dead.

    that's soooo wrong if it is true,only for the reasons: WD made TT what they are today,fans got attracted to how great the game is....now....people hear about this game who never played a game before..and TT feel they have to simplfly it to cater for them to understand what all the fuss was about...meanwhile the core fan base who stayed loyal to the product are losing interest because TT want to simplfy the product??? it's laughable,and also arrogant to feel that the hardcore loyal fans will stay with the product regardless of quality.

  • hopefully like Omid was treated.

    Is anyone else nervous how they are going to handle AJ? I just really don't want him to be a hindrance or a burden to the story or to Clem in the game.

  • I just really don't want him to be a hindrance or a burden to the story or to Clem in the game.

    Neither do I, but I guess we just hope for the best. And choose carefully when taking care of him. Responsibility is a credo of mine.

  • DUDE spoilers for the ones who haven't read the comics moron! Well I am happy that I already read them.

  • Had it been up to me, I'd have Clementine give AJ away to more capable survivors living in a stable community who are pro-children, as in completely against the Crawford mentality towards children. It's the best way to write AJ out of the story without the need to kill him off for cheap drama.

    Besides, killing the baby off has already been done before, and I'd rather not see Clementine stoop as low as to be given a choice to abandon the baby to save her own skin, otherwise I won't be able to root for her anymore.

  • What if it's a choice between Clem abandoning the baby or walkers killing them both though? Say, they're hiding from walkers and AJ starts to cry.

  • Considering that Clementine is more or less guaranteed to survive due to how the narrative is written, I'd still keep AJ and not sell him out to die just because the story demands to make a choice of whether I want to see a baby eaten by walkers or not. Yes, AJ can be considered a liability, but it would be Clementine's own fault for choosing carry AJ, hide in an unsafe area surrounded by walkers, and then rely on a baby to not make a sound at the worst possible time.

    That's why I would much prefer to have Clementine give AJ away in a community who are able to raise a baby, something that Clementine and Kenny/Jane aren't capable of doing.

  • Giving up AJ to a more able-bodied group of survivors is pretty much the best option there is.

    I don't want to see them kill AJ just so they can cross it off the list of all the horrible, borderline-nihilistic shit they can do in the story, but I don't want to see them keep him around in an attempt to 'involve' him in the story either, especially since there's not much that taking care of a newborn can add to a story, especially in the video game medium. Taking care of AJ would largely end up being an interference and annoyance to most people/players.

    They already had to -- for lack of a better term -- nerf AJ in the game when you think about it. There's a reason he doesn't cry so much and need constant diaper changes and care; the majority of the general audience would be incredibly annoyed by him, would feel burdened by his existence, and more or less lose their minds because of him. In that scenario, I'm not even doubting that most people would decide to throw him to the wolves if the opportunity came up. For example, the choice of running for the baby or running to cover would practically be a 90/10 split in favor of running to cover if AJ acted realistically. With how a lot of people responded to characters like Duck and Sarah, there's no way that people would even have the slightest positive opinion of AJ if he acted like a real newborn would, or assumed a role in the story, like crying to attract walkers and other danger.

    Then you have all the video game elements that just don't mesh with taking care of a baby. What would he bring to the table from a pure mechanical standpoint? He would either bring a bunch of unnecessary, mundane QTEs, fetch quests, and lord knows what else, or he would take a backseat to 80% of the story and action taking place, largely making him an unnecessary character that doesn't really need to be there. I just don't see a meaningful role stemming from the presence of AJ. So I'd rather he leave the story, preferably in a way that isn't a brutal death of some sort.

    You pretty much summed up how I thought and felt about AJ's potential role in Season 3 and how he was portrayed in Season 2.

  • Tbh, I really want a teaser trailer at this point. Maybe in October? It always seems to be the month for summer blockbuster superhero film trailers, or November. Either way, they need to give us something like that.

  • A teaser trailer for season 3? I doubt that. Maybe we'll get a trailer for TWD: Michonne but that's about all I'd expect.

  • I guess you're right. They really dont care about the marketing because they proabably think everyone will buy S3 when it comes out.

  • It might not have been an option to you, but I stayed with Jane after I accidentally ;-) shot Kenny.
    But I couldn't take the burden on AJ on my own so I sticked with her and returned to Howe's where we met another family.

    I really like that ending, but I would also like my other savegames to have a proper continuing. To match all those different endings would be a huge challenge for season 3. Just can't wait for it.

  • I surely will. Just bought the whole collection for Xbox One again.
    Just the kind of game you can play after work, relaxing on the sofa instead of watching more and more Netflix series.

    He's a comic character. You'd have to read the comics to find out what happened to him.

  • hey,just saying he leaves then he finds the group which contains:tdog,andrea and,merle so basically he leaves and ends up finding them.Therefore from then on the rest is basically the walking dead the series.Plus there is a vid explaining everything go check it out :).

  • The game takes place in the comic universe, Merle and T-Dog are only TV show characters. The TV Glen is different from the comic/game Glen.

    Thread: Season 3


    Greetings to the community of The Walking Dead,
    I had a game related question, since I can't access my account on where I bought Season 1 and 2 of the game, I was forced to make a new account. On my new account, when Season 3 is released,I won't have the previous seasons. My question is; 1) Is this really a problem? 2) Do I have to buy Season 1 and 2 for the second time?

  • Season 3 is going to be a totally separate game so you don't need to own seasons 1 & 2 in order to play.

  • Season 3 being separate from 1 and 2 gives me the impression that Clementine may not have a strong role in the next game. Either that or past choices will have no bearing on Season 3 whatsoever.

  • I meant septate as in it doesn't require the first two seasons in order to play (like the same way a DLC might need them in order to work). As they haven't released any information about any possibly connections to the first two games we will need to wait and find out if our saves might affect season 3 and they probably won't release any information about that until after the Michonne mini series has finished.

  • Yes, because advocating for the execution of an infant isn't the slightest bit objectionable or creepy as long as said infant is comprised of pixels.

    You guys seriously need to cut this out.

  • That's cool, so It won't be like Season 2 which requires Season 1 or else it would randomize your options?

  • You don't need season 1 to play season 2 either, as your choices don't really carry over between games except for Ben surviving in Crawford and a few dialogue options. You'll probably need season 2 because there are several different endings, but considering this is telltale those different endings won't matter.

  • There is no news yet whether or not you can import save files from season 1 & 2 but if you do need to they would likely be randomised if you lost your saves.

  • Wait.... is that Jack in physical form? Haven't played the game yet, just waiting it out still despite almost giving in to the urge. I can survive the minor spoiler.
