Can someone at Telltale please explain how the story generator/save import actually works?
I imported my save thinking that it would give me a more accurate representation of "my" Clementine, but it seems like she has just been saying the generic lines about "not trusting people".
When I do the story generator I get a much more nuanced and detailed description of Clementine, a Clementine that was focused on Kenny and family. I feel like MY Clementine should be making the comments about "AJ being her last family left".
So my question is whether importing your save actually accounts for Clem's personality, or whether I need to use the story generator to get the unique lines depending on her values? Because right now it honestly seems like my save import only takes account for her s2 ending and then gives her the default lines to say.
Can somebody at Telltale please explain this? I asked Kevin Bruner many questions about this when he first announced it but I'm not sure he knew what he was talking about. I would appreciate some insight because I'd really like the final two episodes to actually feel like MY Clementine.

I think it's random , I saw people with imported save getting the family lines, and people with story generator getting the not trusting other people line and vice versa.
I messed around with the story generator, alot I thought, and it always ened up giving me the same description of Clem.
I don't know I felt like I was getting a more accurate Clementine for the Wellington ending. When recalling AJ's "death", Clementine chose the more emotional line of, "At least he doesn't have to live in this world anymore" opposed to "I trusted people and got hurt again, meh."
When Jesus scolded Javier for bashing in Badger's skull Clementine actually said that it could have been a mistake and emotions just get the most of people instead of saying that she trusts his judgement.
I'm seriously liking these changes. However what you said is true, Clementine needs more lines and actions that show how much she loves AJ instead of giving that edgy loner vibe.
Thats interesting, I didn't know about the Wellington specific lines yet.
I just find it odd that I get the edgy "I trusted people again" lines from staying with Kenny. My Clementine adored Kenny, I don't know why she acts so bitter. If anything I'd expect to get the family lines.
I got that line about trusting people too and I got the Kenny ending. Is it maybe to do with the Ava choice in episode 2? Like, she willingly joined TNF and got kicked out? I chose to go with Ava, but then again I injected AJ so that line still doesn't make sense.
i stayed with kenny till the end and in the moment when she talks about ajs "death" she says "He was the only family i had left" but i was team kenny till the end and always agreed wiith him
I think it's less to do with the ending and more the short description you get. You can literally get "Clementine remained compassionate in a world of chaos" or "Clementine put her own safety first, both in the Kenny ending.
