  • I didn't kill him. It's not my nature.

  • But you did kill Kenny.

  • Yeah to save someone else at the time. Heck if it had actually been me in real life I'm not sure if I'd have been able to muster up the courage to do even that.

  • When I initially play these games the first time, I try to play them from the viewpoint of me being the character.

    As for Javi, the first choice to "betray" Clementine after she shot the guy in the hanger...I tried to talk her down and defuse the situation, but after she shot him, I figured that since she was taking me back to my family, and she had already spared me before, that backing her up was still my best bet to reach my family.

    As for Conrad....pissed me of when he flipped his shit at me after I even went down to help Francine, but chalked it up to him grieving and just lashing out. But when he took Gabe at gunpoint, my nephew, and possible the only family I have left (Kate's in bad shape), yeah, to hell with that guy. You've got to go!

    Will be fun playing through this on a second go around, but initially, those are the gut reactions!

  • Why did I kill Conrad?

    Because I refuse to use Clementine as a bargaining chip or otherwise. Not to mention he threatened Gabe.

  • He didn't really. He tried to hold them off for a while, there was no winning that fight so he had to get out of there.

    And still why would Tripp put some people he had just met above Prescott? I mean, besides Conrad and the lady doctor didn't he have other friends there?

  • Agreed, except for maybe the last part. That choice put Conrad far too in the wrong too fast. That rivals "Save Sarah/Pull Jane" in terms of visibly one-sided bias.

    Telltale fucked up bad. They should've let the player agree to the plan before Conrad even holds Gabriel at gunpoint and most people would have done so.

  • Admittedly, telling Conrad what he wants to hear is easier than getting Kenny to calm down.

    Tbh, not wanting to betray Clem was only a small reason as to why I killed him. He had Gabe at gunpoint and was seriously unhinged. I felt he was a danger to those around him and I couldn't risk it.

  • The bigger and main reason why i shot Conrad is that there is no way I'm betraying Clem, not a single chance, BUT THAT doesn't mean it's the only reason.

    Let's think about it a bit, TNF took Javi from his family and Clem saved his life.

    And then the same girl took him back to his family.

    And when TNF came to Prescott, i choosed to come down and try to talk cuz i didn't want them to kill Francine.

    But TNF seemed to have an another opinion, the same girl saved my life for the second time.

    And then Conrad starts trash talking to me even though i tried to play it cool and tried to save Francine, and that alone pissed me off.

    The guy was unstable, so later he pointed the gun on the girl who saved my life twice and wanted me to betray her, and he threatened to shoot my nephew and possibly the only family Javi got, since Kate is injured and she may not make it, REALLY CONRAD??

    I think all of this was enough reason to shoot him, and if i decided to accept the plan, how I'll make sure that he will not do it again in the future for whatever reason?

    He was dangerous and it had to be done that's it, i didn't even hesitate and i still think i made the right decision and i'm happy with what I've chosen.

  • and most people would have done so.

    Hmm I dont know about that.

    Telltale fucked up bad. They should've let the player agree to the plan before Conrad even holds Gabriel at gunpoint and most people would have done so.

    Maybe, but he still seems too trusting when they are that deep into the zombie apocalypse now. If I were Tripp I would see Javier as an ok guy(he being in that awful situation with his family), but Clem is kinda fishy. Everyone can see she is hiding things.

    I really liked Conrad,great guy, with a nice heart, similar to Tripp. I didnt wanna kill him but im not giving up Clem.
    I shot him, i knew that was the option from the get go. I shot him. but i was thinking about the consequences. What if Javi doesnt get a good shot and Gabe gets killed?

    Lol dw though, May Conrad RIP in my playthrough like pretty much everyone elses haha. I mean did TT think i would really give up clem... haha no

  • lol

    Something YOU seem to be misreading as CAPITULATION.

  • I will shot him if i played the game
    3 reasons
    1) clementine all the way
    2)you put a gun at my family i put a bullet at your head
    3)i never liked that guy's face

  • I shot him for the simple fact he was threatening Clementine.

    Sadly the living example of how not to do a child character didn't illicit any feelings from me when he was threatened.

  • Hopefully it gets bigger, unless they decide to kill off more characters. Hopefully they don't.

  • Well my first play...I did not shoot him. My second play, I shot him, the reason being, Javi is a man who just lost his daughter(yes I know it is his niece but he felt differently) and saw his partner shot. He was not going to let someone threaten Gabe like that. So I shot Conrad.

  • Yeah that's the reason we as players also know, i think he was gonna die anyway, as always.

  • Threatening Gabe was the wrong part of him trying to convince us.

    He'd have more people siding with him if he hadn't done that (a few more people, but more nonetheless)

  • The only person I trusted was Clementine, and I always will. MF had to die.

  • He was. Conrad is a person who would do anything in order to force others to follow his ways. And all of that only because he lost his morals and reasoning after Francine died. You can't have someone like him in your group if you want to survive.

  • Ugh let Conrad be an example of how wasted a Telltale character could be. This decision would be far more difficult if he'd been written as a nicer guy and instead of freaking out on a whim tried reasoning with the group as to why they should turn her over instead of flipping his shit like an idiot to create conflict.

  • Conrad is a person who would do anything in order to force others to follow his ways.

    I don't think so. Conrad did follow Tripp's orders and kept up with the group even after Francine died. Yes he did force and threaten Clementine, Javier, and Gabe but he did that for the rest of the group and for Kate.

    You can't have someone like him in your group if you want to survive.

    I guess it might depend on how you want to survive. Tripp sadly didn't even care that Clementine was captured compared to when Conrad dies, he overreacts. Jesus thought Conrad's idea was useful against the New Frontier.

    To me, having someone like Conrad who overreacts like that is bad. But I always take in fact that he suffered alot. He's not the first to force others to follow his ways. Kenny was the same back in S2 when he wanted the group to go to Wellington. And Kenny's suffered worse and look at how bad he overreacted.

  • I shot him because he took Gabe hostage and was pointing his gun at me too. Not selling Clementine out wasn't really a factor in the decision, I was just tired of his bullshit.

  • Yeah, at the very least, he had a legitimate reason to be on edge, but they really had him get too aggressive and thus made him too in the wrong.

  • Conrad seems pretty nice to me. He was very kind and genuine when he and Javi first met. Sure he got mad and blamed Javi for Francine's death, but he calmed down afterwards and didn't really seem to have a grudge against Javi afterwards.
