  • I don't think Javier would teach her. now im not too much into guns or rifles but I guess they all work the same way and as per handling the gun's recoil, I think she can manage as in twds2e2 she figured out how to counter the rifle's recoil while killing zombies near the windmill. also I think she's a lot stronger now that she's a teen. and of course when we look at the poster it seems like that its no big deal for clementine to handle that rifle. so idk, but im not too sure about Javier teaching her in the game

    That could be a great bonding moment between Javier and Clementine.

  • I will be more focused on clem too but it'd be kinda diificult if there are like clem, Javier and rick/carl/jesus/michonne/negan at the same time on screen.

    I will certainly be more focused on the Telltale characters rather than the comic characters, and I honestly love Clementine even more than Rick Grimes.

  • I have that gut feeling too. but I don't want that to happen. honestly tho Javier's brother/friend looks like a big 'fck up' (I don't know why, but he looks like he will do everything wrong) but his sister reminds me of s2 Clementine so I don't want anything to happen to her. but I like the idea of Clementine consoling him. that'd be cute.

    I predict that someone in Javier's family is going to die in "A New Frontier." Possibly one of his siblings. He will be absolutely heartbrok

    yea that's one of my theories as well. They will be 'kind of' frenemies. I think. But I think as Javier we will get to make how good their relationship can be.

    I feel the exact same way. I think they may not get along at first, but they will warm up to each other, and work together as a team.

  • •AJ "a very big situation Clementine is dealing with"
    its one of the those things that make me super excited for this game. I absolutely love the idea of how our little Clem who is now in her early teens (around13/14) will try to become like a teen mom to AJ( who is I think a toddler). also it would be adorable to see her trying to make him eat vegetables or read him a bedtime story( yes!even in an apocalypse! ).

    I wouldn't trust any sources other than Telltale as Amazon could have a placeholder date and the original November 15th date could have been a placeholder for the disc version in the first place.

    It's also possible that Telltale asked retail stores to remove the November 15th date so they changed it to another placeholder date or removed the date altogether as Amazon UK have removed the release date and have also completely removed the ability to pre-order the PS3 and Xbox 360 version of the game.

    I see a lot of people are pissed that the new guy is going to me the main character instead of Clementine. This isn't really a problem for me as I am more or less neutral on Clementine's involvment in season 3. The possible problems with the new character and season 3 for me are,

    1) He can't be Luke 2.0. I remember someone else saying that they got this vibe from the trailer, and I felt this way as well (even though we're judging him on a few seconds screentime). Him being similar to one of the most generic, disappointing characters in season 2 would not be a good thing.

    2) He can't be simlar to Lee. If he is then he risks being compared to him and will be made to look 2nd best. It's the reason I never really liked that 400 days character that essientally had the same entrance as Lee (mysterious character with a bit of an edge, being transported to prison, making small talk before discovering ZA in brutal fashion)

    3) He can't be just a generic bad ass with little personality (basically like Michonne or Daryl from the TV show).

    Any news on episode length as yet? Because that's gonna play a big part on the quality of eps in my opinion. They need to be at least season 1 length if not longer. Can you imagine season 2 length episodes whilst trying to juggle multiple playable characters? That would be a fucking disaster. And the fact that AJ is still alive is ridiculous. Man, we've had awesome characters like Lee, Kenny, Lilly, Jane all written out and that burden plot device is still with us? Hopefully he will be meeting his end soon in dramatic fashion.

  • Good thing the Steam refund policy is to have less than 2 hours of playtime. Perfect for me if they decide to pull off that 90 minute episode garbage again.

  • I think Javier would be a very emotional character kind of like Kenny (but with less outbursts). I also think he would be very protective and conservative type unlike Luke or Lee ( he may not want to help Clementine early on in the game). He would be good at fighting walkers but not excellent (so not a Badass) and I think would be the kind of guy who uses his wits more than strength (somewhat like Lee but making it more clear about what he's doing).
    If you're talking about Vince in number 2 then i don't know about you but I think he was a great character. One I definitely wish to see in twds3.
    Also I think the first episode will focus more on Javier than Clem so there may not be much switching.
    Lastly I'm all in for Clem taking care of AJ and he's definitely not a burden plot device imo.

  • lemme just

    enter image description here

    Some thoughts off the top of my head.

    • Javier has a family - they will die in ep1
    • He then meets clementine
    • They both get tangled in a new group or clem existing group (if she has one)
    • Another Randall or Carver type character - this person will have a connection to Javier and his family's deaths
    • Im gunna guess at a Christa return this season
    • Potential AJ kidnapping
    • Luke returns like "sup bitches"
  • I'm so excited to see Clem taking care of AJ, they will be the sweet moments in the game! (Next to Clem and Javier's funny/sweet moments)

  • Should have faked his death to escape from the broken group and came back as a much tougher and better character in season 3 than he was in season 2. Too late to bring him back now though.

    That is classified intel. ;)

    (...and by "classified intel", I mean that I'd prefer that it not be too well known so that people don't over use it).

    However, I do trust that it's okay for BetterToSleep to know it, as he doesn't seem like the type to overuse it and/or use it without good reason.

    I just don't like HIM to be the major character. I have known that I am gonna dislike him from the frst moment I saw him. So, I hope that he dies in the end of the season and Clementine remains the playable character. TWD is Clementine's Story, not Javier's.

    That was just a sarcastic joke in response to all the people genuinely hoping that Javier dies because his story is coexisting alongside Clem's.

  • Just because someone prefers something doesn't make them a salty baby.

  • You must really like Javier.

    ATTENTION TELLTALE! NOBODY LIKES CLEMENTINE! WE LOVE JAVIER MORE! PLEASE KILL CLEMENTINE AND LET JAVIER BE THE NEW MAIN CHARACTER! DOWN WITH CLEMENTINE!!!

  • I'm just having some fun in response to how a very small niche of people seem to have a burning hatred for Javier personally because of Job's comments about this being "Javier's story."

  • Nope. I love Season 2 and think it's better.

  • AWWWW Im a sucker for flashbacks with characters when they were younger!

    also, since Javier is apparently in his 20s (I'm going with 23) and the outbreak started about 4 years ago, he would be in high school still (17-18ish)

  • Yeah, they are right, Clem is mine and theirs personal favourite character, so Telltale making her something like a deuteragonist with playable flashbacks rather than the main protagonist, is something that makes us want Javier to die.
    Personally, I would like Clem to kill Javier at the end of the season.

    Most people at facebook and etc loves Season Two.
    Just some people on this forum is strongly dissatisfied and do not know how to restrain their emotions about what Season 2 is not like Season 1.
    Season 2 such amazing like Season 1. For me even better.

    Let's play a mind game - what if, theoretically speaking in some different timeline or whatever, the roles were swapped between Seasons 1 and 2.

    There would be a different version of Season 1 without Lee Everett, where Clem was the playable character and similar events happen in Season 1 without Lee being there. Lee Everett goes on to survive until the events of Season 2 and is the new playable Character in that Season. Lee encounters Clem by chance, and they go on to have the same dynamic that they had in our version of Season 1, with Lee protecting Clementine (and Clementine is not as hardened or self sufficient this time around, so she still needs Lee). The time skip is ditched, so Lee and Clem are close enough to the same age as Season 1.

    Would people want Lee Everett to die because he took the spotlight away from Clem?
