  • Guys please stop arguing!

    But this is getting really enjoyable. I love it when mommy and daddy fight.

    Most of the writing and all character development was very poor in season 2.

    Disagree for the most part. But as always, to each their own.

    I'm still holding out hope Christa is alive

    Although Clem's probably going to end up watching her die :(

    The quick deaths of Omid and Christa. S2 felt too much like you were starting a whole new story with new people, rather than continuing the old one

  • I agreed with her opinion. That it all. And what extra help?

    Yes, what extra help? If I agree with someone's comments, I'll say so. Havent you done the same, Mrwalto69? Same thing if I disagree. Thats what these forums are for. What is this combative attitude for? This argument is getting kind of out of hand imo.

  • To try and prove me wrong. Because you never admitted that Clementine was a screen hog. So you wait for someone to come on and try to justify that Clementine was wrongly done by.

  • I agree with people yes I do. What I don't do is try to get in between an argument between 2 people like you have done. This a forum that is suppose to express peoples OPINIONS. But I have an opinion about Clementine, and you people who enjoy her, can't admit that she was a screen hog, so you put the blame on other characters (NOHATCLEM firstly blamed Kenny, then blamed Jane, then tried to say they didn't blame Jane). I admitted that Kenny did take some time away from the new characters but the fact that you 2 can't admit Clementine did the same when it's clearly obvious playing the season she did, then it shows that you people don't know how to write on a public forum.

    It seems you dont understand how forums work. Theyre not all about having private arguments that people "get in the middle of". You seem angry when someone agrees with someone that doesnt agree with you so you call it taking sides. Its all getting pretty ridiculous. People should feel free to respond how they want without feeling like theyre getting in the middle of a battle.

    As for admitting Clementine is a screen hog, why would I admit to something that I dont believe? Ive already said why. Clementine is meant to be the focus of the season, so how can she possibly hog it? It would be pretty strange to play as her and not have her be in most of the scenes.

    You cant beat people down with your opinions, no matter how strongly you feel about it. You cant try to make them admit to something they dont think is true. Now can we put this to bed?

  • So now your saying that I waited for someone to help me? I'm not admitting that Clementine was a screen hog because I don't believe she was. This whole discussion was between me and you, KCohere just stated her opinion. I agreed with it because she saw where I was coming from. Not once did I anticipate the help of others to argue with you.

  • You have a point on Ben. Ben is one of the most realistic characters in my opinion. This guy represents any person that's hesitant and yet he gets hated. What he did to Kenny is what Kenny did to Lilly and that is just fucking bullshit. I guess the almighty Plot card is on Clementine's favor since she is competent and not Duck... who is a plot device.

    Anyway, Christa should be in Season 3. She deserves it a whole lot.

    Funny how you mention the sewers, yet you failed to realise that I was comparing Lee's screen time in the first episode of S1 to Clementines

  • Not at all. I get annoyed when people join in with someone and don't admit something that is real and does the same thing in saying something that isn't true.
    By your logic, why am I not getting the benefit of the doubt? I say Clementine hogged the spot light, you say she didn't and I'm wrong? Hypocrite?
    Again, Lee was the same as Clementine yet was he the focus of season one? No, he had a storyline behind him but so did all the other characters, that's what made S1 better then S2 all different plot holes. S2 had plot holes but cared more for Clementine then anything else. I was expecting her to be like Lee. Have it focus on her but also more with the new charatcers. Explore Nicks mum and his hate more, Rebecca and Alvin more, Sarah and Carlos more. They were all briefly mentioned but never properly done like Kenny and his family or Clementine in S1 or Lily and Larry, Carleys affection with Lee etc.

    I never said I wanted to "beat you" what are we in grade 1? If you can't admit that focusing the majority of the time on Clementine effected how S2's characters were developed then you really are biased.

  • I'm sure you didn't. That's why you ran straight to her thanking her for helping you. Before she came a long, you were blaming multiple characters then saying you didn't blame them. All over the shop. Clementine being focused on that much ruined S2's characters. As I said to you. Clementine being by herself in all that remains was over half the episode long. That's roughly 40-50 minutes of just her. When did Lee have that much in an episode.? Someone mentioned the sewer scene in around every corner. That was around 10 minutes of a 2+ hour episode. Nothing compared to Clementines exposure.

  • Says the person who called mine a "biased opinion". It's alright to have an opinion when it's you but mine is biased. Good job, yours is biased towards Clementine then. Tell me an episode S1 or S2 where Kenny had half and episode of just him in scenes. If you can do that then i'll eat my hat.

  • You know I hated Christa but after what they did to her in S2, it was pretty fucked up.
    Ben and Kenny doing that stuff was wrong and both got backlash from it, more so Ben but Clementine got told by Christa and Lee that the stranger wasn't a nice guy, 2 people in her group she trusted and Lee who had been her guardian since episode 1 and she goes behind their back which in result indirectly gets Lee killed, Ben Killed (if saved) Kenny separated and they lose the boat trying to find her yet everyone doesn't think it's wrong what she did? Biased.

  • I already explained why I thanked her, and she already said she just agreed with what I had to say. Nobody helped anyone. So off that subject. I'm not admitting anything about Clementine hogging the spotlight. She didn't in my opinion. She's the main character, she's gonna be in the majority of the scenes. They could've done a better job developing the cabin survivors in the next four episodes. But they didn't, unfortunately.

  • See what I mean? I explain to you details about how Clementine was selfish and didn't give the S2 characters screen time where as Lee had his time and the other characters got plenty of time and you decide you don't want to respond to it? Normal for someone to take off when they know it's true.

    KCohere posted: »

  • And why does she agree with your opinion again? Because you both are Clementine fan girls. Okay so your opinion is that she's the main character and that it's normal for her to be in the majority of the scenes. So how come Lee was the main character but didn't have half an episode of just him walking around doing nothing? Do you think if they cut out or cut down those scenes of Clementine in all that remains, they would've had more time to develop the cabin group? Yes or no? Remember what people said about a new day? A good introduction episode on the characters, so why should an already established character get half an episode and new undeveloped characters get brief development?

  • Stop calling us Clementine fangirls....that's like me calling you a blind Kenny fan. You wouldn't like it. I'm willing to say that they should've taken more time on the cabin group, sure. But they had to show how Clementine managed to get to the cabin, how she'd manage to meet Luke and Pete. I also wanted to see how'd she'd last alone, how she'll struggle. I wanted to get to know more about her. Should they have added a scene or two about the cabin group having the meeting or hell, even talking about Carver, YES! But I believe by the end of episode one, each cabin survivor had their own personality established. Luke being the "good guy" of the group. Pete being that caring, father like figure. Nick was hot-headed and was still coping with his mothers death, which caused him to be wreckless. Rebecca was a belligerent pregnant lady, that everyone hated. Sarah was a sheltered child who needed to be exposed. Carlos was an overprotective dad who became defensive as soon as his daughter is mentioned. And Alvin was another caring husband who wanted nothing but to keep his wife safe.

  • You can say what you want about me, I'm not going to cry like you are. I'dsay yes I like Kenny, but I can admit when his done wrong or if his taking up screen time, where as you cannont do that. Look, I admit that Clementine needed to be tested on her own, and she did that by escaping those men who attacked Christa, that was fine, but after that, walking around for ages until she meets Sam and gets bitten. They could've had her been bitten when she met Sam like if she goes to pat him but they dragged that a long. How is Clementine walking VERY slowly being spooked by birds good for the game? Luke was shown to be caring but he was overshadowed by Clementines presence. When she's talking about HER past at the end with Luke, it's all about her, hardly anything about Luke. Pete got on well with her but that was wasted because they killed him off the same episode or at the start of the next. Yes but we didn't get to the depth of his anger or try to be friends with him. He has the meanginful scene locked with Clementine then his only relevant when he kills Matthew and that's it. And then they made Rebecca into a nice character and even her development was overshadowed by Clementine"you better be nice to ME". What does Rebeccas lies have to do with Clementine? Is Clementine a detective now? The only scene we got from Sarah was to BENEFIT Clementine, to manipulate Sarah to help her. Carlos only has the one scene where his nice or mean to Clementine. and Alvin is the biggest waste of them all,Says a few words then is only seen if Clementine ask him for help, again all circling around Clementine. If that was S1, all those characters would've had way more time to tell their story and wouldn't of been kept down by Lee .

  • No. It's an opinion. I already told you, Amid The Ruins and No Going Back. I'm willing to say Clementine was boring and bland. I'm also willing to say she was underdeveloped and unrealistic. I don't believe she was a screen hog. Anything else?

So there are sceens in ATR and NGB where he was walking around by himself for half an episoce like Clementine? Explain to me why Lee didn't hog the screen as much as her yet S1 was better developed then S2.

Not once have a forced you to admit anything you didn't want to. We already know S1 is better than S2. Clearly each episode being cut down to an hour played a big part.

    In all honestly, there wasn't any point in bringing back Kenny other than fan demand. I remember there were petitions here from the fans to bring back Kenny for season 2. Kenny's story was done in season 1 - he developed into a character that Lee can rely on and can call his friend. When he was introduced in season 2, there wasn't much character growth for him. As a result, TT wrote him as a dude who is experiencing PTSD who is hostile and dangerous to the group - they pretty much made him the main villain because there was nothing else for TT to do with the character. Season 2 goes down hill when Kenny is reintroduced in season 2 of TWD because the game focuses more on him and his PTSD than any of the other characters - I can't even remember the names of the other characters other than Craver.

  • I agree - I am glad that Dontnod is going with this direction of making a new story if and when they do a season 2 of Life is Strange. I feel that by continuing Clem's story, it made powerful moments like Kenny sacrificing himself to save Lee or Clementine seeing two strangers nearby in the post credits less powerful.

    they should have just made season 2 like season one, a totally original story not related to anything done before (except it being in the wa
