Ep. 2 Ending - Michonne (Dealing w/ Randall)
Okay, so I just want to know what everyone did with Randall in the end.
I decided to bash his face it. Tbh, he kept threatening everyone and it really ticked me off!
I'm generally a nice and gentle person, I tend to show mercy, but man this guy got under my skin!! If he wouldn't have said all that crap to the kids about how he murdered their father and how he was going to murder all of them, I wouldn't have murdered him. I guess I may have been in the wrong considering I could have got them all killed (probably??) because of Norma interfering. I'm not even sure if Norma would turn as violent as Randall?
To me, I see it as if I'm protecting my own children. If you even make a death threat, especially on our property, I'm going to beat the heck out of you.
I dunno, let's talk about it, though! I'd like to hear your choices. (:

I spared him, not because I'm merciful to baddies or anything, I just thought it'd be a good bargaining chip to stop the bloodbath from happening. And I kinda like Norma, soooo.
Looks like it'll be an important choice so we'll see if I was right or not.
Yeah, I can understand that. Norma probably appreciates the fact you spared him. Tbh, she may end up becoming more understanding (??) to your side? I'm not sure how else to word that haha. Or maybe even more empathetic.
I'm curious to really see both outcomes because I can only assume major events that could happen because of this. Although, I think if she noticed the havoc her people caused the family as a whole, she'd step back? ? Or I can only hope. Because the family as a whole, was only trying to survive. The father didn't have to die. Or so I don't think he had to.
I Spared Him Because in My Game Norma has Pete,and i think if i killed him it would be a slaughter
Aw, man! I feel so bad, I forgot about Pete! In mine, I let him "sacrifice" himself in order for us to escape. So his whereabouts are still kinda in the shadows for me. If she did capture him, however, I'd def hate that she could hurt him.
Man. Guess we'll have to see where this goes!
The only thing I went off for killing Randall was because he kept threatening the house. I suppose he probably couldn't have done anything considering I had him tied up.
I may end up doing a separate save file and do my opposite actions I'm doing now. Haha.
Killed him, he was too dangerous and kept threatening Sam's family. I know Norma isn't going to leave Michonne alone after what she has done to her community.
He really was a hella threat. That frustrated me. And you do have a point there. After all that drama theres no way Norma would back off that easily. I feel like it would probably tick her off even more, but she was being compulsive and rude to begin with. Well, for me that is.
I killed the fuck out of Randall and I would do it again! He was joyfully brutal cocksucker from the start and made it clear he was going to continue being a joyfully brutal cocksucker at his first possible convenience! That guy practically had, "Kill me!" stamped on his motherfuckin' forehead! He sealed his doom by threatening to murder children! Actually he sealed it by actually killing all those kids on that boat! Killing him wasn't just my duty it was a joy!
:') I've been waiting to hear this yes
He was being extremely cocky, too, and tbh he had no damn reason to barge into that property and esp murder the dad. That got me fired up! Because it waS so uncalled for like wtf seriously
I hate Randall a whole lot but I couldn't bring myself to sink to his level, so I didn't kill him. What I'm going to do with him now, I don't know.
I killed him, because I felt like keeping him alive would be dangerous for the Fairbanks plus Paige, Michonne, and Pete, but looking at it in retrospective, he was trapped and his fingers were broken. Plus, I truly sympathize with Norma and understand where she is coming from, so I regret killing her last family member. And yeah, I have no idea how I'll canonly get Pete back, since I let him surrender and he makes it out alive either way.
I would go back and change my "canon" playthrough, but I feel like it'd be cheating. Can you guys make me happy and allow me to change my decision?
I can understand that. I contemplated about how I shouldnt sink to his level, but his threats on the kids is what threw me off.
I just couldnt stand it.
Haha, well, you'll get to figure out next week! Super excited.
That is true. I was able to look at it that way as well. I somewhat feel bad for Norma, because it's obvious she's been through some shit, but I think some of her actions were kinda overdramatic. Like the way she would talk to them to try to pry information they didnt know out of them. Like, chill lady.. haha. I hope we get Pete back soon! I rly hope she didnt hurt him, he's like my child.. hah
You could always play it under a different save account! Thats what I do. :b
I didn't want to drop to his level, and plus I didn't want to piss of Norma! Pete was ticked off with me anyways for escaping gung ho, so I didn't want to trouble him more when he told me not to do it. I also feel that this was Michonne's first real big decision since leaving RIck's group. I wanted her new beginning to be more on the merciful side.
Well, shit, I should have so considered poor Pete's outlook on this. Oh boy, I'mma be in trouble. Haha, but I think he'd understand if the guy was threatening to murder the family (even considering he murdered their father). But at the same time, he doesn't really believe in revenge. Hm.
Great reasoning, though! It's nice to see everyone's perspectives on this kind of thing.
I spared him. Maybe some mercy can lead to something good. I can't imagine Randall being able to accomplish a whole lot with broken fingers and a busted up face. But really we're at the mercy of the writers on this one.
Right? Usually the story plays out for the better when you spare someone's life. lmao
I think I gonna have to go back and change mine from killing Randall to sparing him cause if Norma has Pete's crew, keeping Randal alive is gonna be necessary.
Yeah, me too. However, I think I'm gonna just go through with what I have now and then do a re play and choose all the opposite choices or something. I'm really curious of all the outcomes haha.
gdi randall..
I wasn't planning to kill him at the beginning of the episode, but when he killed the dad, that was over. He killed an innocent man, the father of the family (he reminded me of my own dad tbh). After that, he kept threatening us and he was happy telling Sam and James about their dad. He really crossed the line, and I just couldn't let him get away with it. He's the type of character that I want out of the story. Psychopath, dangerous as hell since he kills people like it's nothing...
So yeah, I killed him. I wasn't even really happy about it, I was just relieved he was gone, even if I still need to deal with Norma. Which is gonna be a little awkward since Pete is with her in my game. o.o
By the way, I'm usually kind and caring in the games too but I'm not really the forgiving type, (it depends on the situation though) but when someone kills an innocent person on purpose without any regrets, then I'm gonna have no mercy for them. Like Aiden from MCSM, Randall, Nate or Carver. But I spared Zachary because I knew it was an accident and he was clearly regretting what he did. That type of things just shows that a character is a nice person, even if they fuck up (like Ben, Nick, hell, maybe even Lilly). And I want to keep nice people.
I can agree with that. He really did cross the line and that's what turned me off, too. lmao. I figured that dealing with Norma, hopefully she'd understand why I killed him. If only they'll let you justify with her understanding !
And I totally agree! Nice people should be protected. Especially if it was an accident. We're all human, so it's expected. Idk if you told Zachary to help you escape or whatnot, but I'm really hoping I can trust him. He seems to be a little on the scared side and if he was forced to talk, I think he would. That wouldn't really benefit him, though, given Norma's personality. She doesn't seem to be the forgiving type at all.
I'm sure Pete is alive. He is in the comics right?
Tbh I'm not sure. I've only recently started the comics. I hope you're right, though.
I chose to spare him because I didn't want to give him what he wanted.
Before the decision to kill Randall, I wanted to kill him so badly. He annoyed, he was a coward, hit women, tortured kids etc. But then as he went on about his rant to Michonne, I realised that he wasn't worth it. He tried to use Michonnes daughter as a way to suck her in to kill him. He already thinks Michonne is cold and is a cold blooded killer. Yes, he can be used as a bargaining chip to Norma, but imo, being the bigger person and walking away from Randalls sly tactics to kill him was the smarter move to me. I mean Danny and Andy St john were baiting Lee to kill them and given what they had done, they deserved to be killed but giving them what the want would be easy and letting them suffer was the better choice. Plus, a lot of people I feel didn't kill them because Clementine was there. I feel had Michonnes kids been with her, most of those people who killed Randall, wouldn't of done it.
Yeah, I think she will be super mad even though she could understand why we killed him. He's her brother after all and they care about each other.
And yes I told Zachary to help me. Also, I wanted to save that gay couple. Gay characters are so rare in TTG u.u
Welp, Norma forgave Sam two times if I'm correct (I remember her saying you can give people a second chance but never a third). She could've killed Sam right away when she saw her again (would've been the same type of situation as Shel's group in 400 days) but she let her go. But since Michonne and Pete are with Sam, Norma probably won't forgive us for stealing and beating up/murdering her brother...
Killed him. He said it himself:
"Kill me and Norma hunts you down till you're all dead. Fucked! Let me live and I do even worse. Fucked."
That's basically why. And he killed Sam's father.
#NoRegrets
Didn't kill him, but I'm almost certain his hands don't work anymore. With broken fingers his hands are useless, so empty threats and insults is pretty much all he had by the end of my play through. Obviously killing him straightaway wouldn't make the most sense, strategically speaking.
Killed him, and he's one of the only characters where there wasn't even that much of a decision. Unlike most choices in these games, where it's hard, did not regret a thing, so I guess I enjoyed killing him in the sense. He himself almost seemed to want it because he himself brought the final point which gave me the final conclusion, as in him saying that I don't kill him, he will just chase after me and brutally kill everyone a lot harsher way than Norma will ever do. Also, the town that Norma was running, seemed like a good community, and for fucks sake, Sam had to fuck her and her family by stealing from them. The town was very cool, and Norma seemed like a very good, fair leader, but her brother was the one who was keeping the community down, if he just orders people to kill other people. He absolutely NEEDED to die, and there's no thinking in that.
Ahh, true.
Gay couple?? I don't recall.. Thats precious, though aa. And well I wouldn't say she exactly let Sam go. Are you talking about when Michonne and Sam escaped? That'd be cool if Sam butted in about how her people basically killed her brother (too) as like an even stand point. Granted, she'd most likely still be pissy. It's kinda ironic if you think about it, though.
I'm sure she wouldn't forgive us for harming/killing anyone related to her family (basically shown in that sneak peek..), but they've got a lot of similarities now that Randall raided the innocent home and murdered their father.
Idk, so much could happen in the last episode, though. I'm so excited to figure it all out.
Yeah, I feel that on a strong level. That's what I was thinking to start with. It just got under my skin that he threatened the young ones and I didn't want any harm done to them. Which I guess I could have avoided if I kept Randall where he was. I may end up going back to spare him. Kids are a really weak point of mine and if I feel like theyre in any danger, I try to get rid of the problem. The game just takes so many unexpected turns. Haha. Now, if the kids were there, I would be strongly against killing Randall, but no one was and I felt like I had the chance to just get rid of one of the problems. Idk, he made me furious that I didnt think too far into letting him live and made me reckless, I suppose I should say.
Thank you for your feedback, btw !
Hahaha. Well, that is true. I think. Shit, tbh now that I think of it, Norma's gonna make us suffer away, most likely ..
haha aahhh #toKillorNottoKill
Good point. I would assume they would have tied some cloth around his mouth just to shut him up. Haha. Kinda irked me all the shit he was saying.
Considering this being a survival game, I can say that would be the common choice.
However, someone did point out to me earlier that his hands were broken anyway so what more could he do. It seemed to be all empty lies. But honestly, telltale can make things pretty unexpected and even tenser than before. If this was reality, I would honestly make sure he wouldnt be able to hurt someone, and i hate to say it, but i'd probably do what Michonne did and break his fingers. That way he wouldn't be able to carry a gun.
You are, however, right in the voicing part. He is still in a fair commanding rank and it's not like people wouldnt listen to him or help him slaughter the others. It's a very tricky decision. I'll guess we'll find out soon though whats to happen! ! fingers crossed
I'm calling it here and now. In the next episode, you're gonna have a very hard time if you spare Randall.
Oh in that case, I can't tell you what's far in the comics then. The DLC is pretty much where Michonne hasn't appeared in the comics for some issues.
Well that's the beauty of the game, it progresses by how we choose to go forward. Some of us killed Randall, some didn't. I can see your point of view with the kids being threatened, it would drive a lot of people to doing that. My feeling was that had my Michonne killed Randall, yes he would've been dead, but now, she has to live with what she's done and that Randall was right all along. Not giving him that satisfaction was better then giving it to him. But some people think his better of dead so it's down to what your intentions are.
Killed him. I hated Randall. In the moment I felt I should do it because I let Sam kill Zachary, and I didn't want her 2nd guessing me. But, mainly I did it because I hated him. And was also afraid of what might happen if I missed my chance, of killing him. I felt, if he lived he would do all he could to hurt Michonne any way possible.
So yeah, I'm good with my choice. Bring on episode 3!
Ohh yea.
I'm more anxious than ever... only a few more days! !
I will keep you in mind, my friend
WHEN THE TIME COMES...
Hahaha, I feel you !!
Good luck ;D !
Randall was a sadistic bastard. I knew I was going to put him down first chance I got, idgaf how Norma's going to take it, if she doesn't leave us alone I'll kill her and her all her evil friends too. Can't wait for the finale!!
