  • I believe that witnessing the struggles and habits that Clementine and Javier undergo on a daily basis might be a good way of humanizing them, and make the player feel more sympathetic toward both.

    Little moments in a slow-paced scene—like rearranging supplies in a backpack, brushing their teeth, disinfecting a minor cut on their hand, perhaps writing in a journal—would definitely ace at this, for me, if executed correctly. In my opinion, Season Three should go a step further and acknowledge that these people's lives are not so different than ours; they still used to live in our society and their past routines continue to be in the back of their heads. Show that to us, so a broader amount of players can relate!

  • Season 1 had a lot of moments like that that were good, such as bandaging Clem in Episode 1, fixing the radio, having the shotgun as Lee, etc. However, later Telltale games took up a more minimalistic gameplay format.

    I would love to see the smaller and more intimate moments like that return for New Frontier.

  • I would, as well!


    You were fast, Blind! Almost as if you knew that I was commenting this!

    Wait. No, that can't be. But… oh!

    Maybe that is why you sometime publicly warn users to follow the guidelines and other times you don't. When you do, it's because you've rewound time and you've come from an alternate scenario in which off-topic conversations lead to the demise of the Telltale forums! When you don't, it's because nothing would be different otherwise.

  • i just googled TWD A New Frontier and some sites are saying the release date leaked and is November 15? That's cool, I'd rather it be early to mid November than later.

  • I hope they possibly release the official trailer! That would be so awesome!

    Someone already found out about this a few pages back, but however - it did remind me that I forgot to update the main post to include this.

    November can't get here soon enough!!!

  • but it'd be hard to challenge someone who almost single-handedly took down an entire town of cannibals and murderers, can take care of a grievously injured man, and who can track and kill a deer with a bow easily.

    You know, when you put it that way, it actually sounds pretty ridiculous that Ellie pulled all of this off

    A single 14 year old girl slaughtered an entire town of cannibals almost entirely on her own

    A bunch of battle-hardened adults that had a ton of advantages over her

    As well as escaping a 15+ man ambush after they followed her to her hideout

    And managing to evade the town residents in their own town that they should know the layout of

    And yet everyone gets on Clementine's case about shutting off a wind turbine and kicking down a door

  • Came back to some good news! Yay!

  • Time feels like it's going by so slowly! I'm so excited for November! :)

  • I actually feel quite the opposite - time is going by super quick, and we're merely weeks away from the launch.

  • I know you are right, my friend, it's just that I can't stop thinking about it every single day, and I'm just awaiting the release day so much! :)

  • Well, the argument usually wagered in favor of TLoU is that with the narrative pull being more of an action game, there needs to be gameplay segments that pad out the length while steadily increasing the challenge in a way that continues the story organically.

    One thing that can be said is that although Ellie is immensely OP with the bow as well as fleet-footed is that her playable segments don't allow her the same level of strength or health as Joel and thus swaps more action-oriented mentality with cunning stealthy tactics.

    As well, I always found that the crux being addressed in the winter portion of the game is a kind-of deconstruction of typical narratives. You see, Ellie never needed Joel to save her. She took out David by herself, she successfully made her way to the tail-end of the town and effectively killed over half the group (it could even be argued that without her softening the town's members, Joel couldn't have made it as far as he did). She never really needed Joel to protect her, and that's what I find so interesting about the winter segments of the game.

    It shows that she became a hardened survivor more than capable of making it on her own, the only question is should she?

    "It can't be for nothing." Although she can survive, she doesn't exactly rally behind the ideal of surviving being the approach she wants if it means having to do the stuff she's done. Honestly, she is one of the more layered and interesting character examinations I've seen in a game.

  • I think the shirt is used as a baby carrier for AJ, so her arms are free to use weapons and that they dont get to tired.

    Nah I don't get that from Clem, but I do I get it more from the coat that possible sister of Javier's is wearing in one of the screenshots. Looks like she stole it from Ellie's Winter segment of The Last of Us.

  • I'd love if Javier just started randomly humming XD

    Javier: * humming *

    Clementine: "What are you doing?"

    Javier: "Just thinking about something from before" * continues humming *

    Clementine: "Is that ninja turtles?"

    Javier: "Do not judge me!"

  • Wow, I can't believe time flew so fast. We're already at Season 3 and I remember Season 2 ending, all the commotion in the forums etc. and the most fun part; the waits between episodes. Those were brilliant. People were so bored and desperate during those times that lots of memes and fan content was created.

    I can't wait to see that repeat.

  • edited September 2016

    I'm quite sad honestly, now I'll have to find something new to piss on with the same recurring flair as I once did with sphincter eye.

    I doubt anything will ever herald the same ease as my favorite urinal-chip. It's become second-nature to me at this point.

    Just out of curiosity... What ending did you guys pick from Episode 5?

    I actually didn't shoot Kenny and I went with him instead of going into Wellington! I remember that I started crying when Kenny said "Just take the kids." and I was like "WHAT?!" :D

    I also played Episode 5 on a school day and I had to go to school with puffy eyes, I was SO embarrassed!!~

  • Ahh yes those scenes are such a nice change of pace, it's these little things that made S1 great.

  • I picked the same ending! I know how much Clem and Kenny care for each other, and I didn't want them to be seperated! :)

    Just out of curiosity... What ending did you guys pick from Episode 5? I actually didn't shoot Kenny and I went with him instead of going

  • Me too, I'd be even more furious.

  • I, uh, shot Kenny and left Jane.

    Just out of curiosity... What ending did you guys pick from Episode 5? I actually didn't shoot Kenny and I went with him instead of going

  • I shot Kenny, went with Jane and accepted the family.

  • My canon ending is staying with Kenny. There are a great many quotes that influenced my decision.

    Hershel: "Family's important, it's all that matters."

    Kenny: "Hell, in the end family's all that matters."

    Luke: "What's the most important thing in this world? Clem, it's family."

  • Shot Kenny. Replayed it, shot Kenny again. Left with Jane. Told the family to take a hike.

    Kidding, I'm not that brutal. I went with Jane, let the family in.

  • I chose the alone ending. I thought it was badass XD

  • Of course they wont let our relationship with Javi became romantic...THERE TELLTALES!! There boring as fuck! But they would suprise me if they did that.. :)
    Also isnt there a saying a boy and girl cant be just friends? It dosent have to be forced but DETERMENT!!! OH GOD PLEASEEEE TT MAKE IT HAPPEN!!!! :´(
    Remember in S2 EP 5 Clem,Kenny,AJ,Bonnie,Mike,Luke,Jane and Arvo set up camp near in the electric fence? That was the best chapter EVER! Apart from in Howes that was cool watching clem watching Carver die (Piece of shit) I loved how Clem `Though´ she knew what Luke.Mike and Bonnie were talking about (Kissing Stuff xD) And how Clem would come back for Luke ;) Can we have a determent chance for Clem to have a crush on Javi like she did Luke! That would be SOOOO CUTE!!! ^-^ <3 <3

    I hope so too but I highly doubt that they'd do that anyway. I think the season is focusing on Javi and Clems friendship. (friendship is magic even in the apocalypse XD)

  • Should I wake up at like three am and play before my day starts?

    That's what I do, it's not that bad.

    I don't think people including myself would like that tbh. I only wish for them to be like brother and sister. Just looking out for each other like bros do :)

    I also can't wait for a scene where they start to bond and talk about their past. Perhaps even learning from each other! that be awesome!!
