Character Rehashes Game thread(Name all 3.0 and 2.0s of previous characters)
Let's play a game..........
There has been a lot of character rehashes in TWDG franchise so we get to name them and a reason or don't provide a reason if it's obvious..
For Example:-
Molly-----Jane------------Season 3 Clementine
(1.0) (2.0) (3.0)
All have lost someone they cared about which got them colder and less opening to people. All prefer to be loners and have good survival skills.

Hmm I do not see it...let's take your "examples"
Molly is a loner because her leaving Crawford was not because she wanted to be a loner...it was a reaction to the cruelty and horror of life there. Molly had/has amazing physical ability and smarts.
I would love to see her again one day.
Jane was always a loner, it took the apocalypse to maker truly appreciate family. Her sister's inability to cope with the new world broke Jane's spirit and tore at her soul.
Jane had been in groups on and off but death drove home to her that her loner tendencies would keep her from feeling the grief of loss. Ultimately she found a bit of happiness with Clementine...but her depression and the thought of bringing a child into this world drove her to suicide.
Molly would never kill herself...nor would Clementine.
Clementine...a loner because she ultimately felt that AJ's death was her fault. That with the NF betrayal in her mind pushed her to a solitary life.
Ava her friend from NF knew that Clementine needed people to help her and keep her from becoming a bitter human...giving her info to find Prescott and AJ's drawing was a way to keep Clem as close to the Clem we all love.
Clementine can survive alone....but ultimately she is not like Molly or Jane...Molly can survive alone easily...Jane needed a group but chose a life of solitude.
Clementine is happiest in a group, she craves human interaction...it is just that in S3 she is dealing with loss and betrayal.
The characters are very different.
Sure they're not exactly the same but they're a bit of a rehash in my opinion. They're obviously not going to have ALL the same backstory and traits but I saw many similiraties between them. Also you didn't play the game
Ben Nick/Sarah Gabe
Clementine would probably kill herself if AJ died. She's willing to kill Lingard even though he's high and clearly is miserable.
Molly>Jane>Ava
Kenny>Tripp
I would say Conrad is the rehash of season 2 Kenny as they both got mad at losing a loved one (Sarita, Francine) while blaming the character (Clementine or Javier) for their actions no matter what you did. They harbor a negative reaction on a compromise towards a teen (Arvo with supplies, Clem with the deal)
Duck - Sarah - Gabe
Tripp is like an Abraham/Kenny hybrid– Abrakenny v3.0.2.5
Honestly, I always saw Clementine as more of the loner type, since Season 1 I dont feel like she has fit into any group, as in, its not good, the way being with Lee was good, again, this is partly due to different Season 2's and whatnot, but I always saw Clementine as the odd one out in season 2, and in season 3 as well, she is the one that knows how to survive, knows what it takes, while the others also know this, they arent as accepting, and dont always choose/know the best course of action, because feelings get too much in the way (feelings are good, but sometimes you have to throw them aside, something Kate was terrible at, Gabe as well).
So I have always seen Clementine after season 1 as someone who is with people out of necessity, not that she doesnt enjoy company, but she also realizes that groups are bound to become conflicted eventually, and groups will never be able to hold up, if youre by yourself, and only interact with people when you need to, you dont run the risk of getting involved (such as Javi currently is with The New Frontier), and you dont run the risk of turmoil, I think youre right that Clementine enjoys company, and doesnt mind being in a group, but I think she realizes that being alone has alot of positives (obviously also negatives, but there are alot of positive things you can gain from only being with people when you choose to)
Four boats and seven trucks ago....
All hail Boatmaster Kenny, Ruler of the Seven Trucks, protecter of the Boat Realm.
I don't think it's always clear cut rehashing so much as stark similarities, but I'll play along
Clementine -> Mariana
Kenny->Season2Kenny
Nick -> Gabe
Danny St. John->Rufus
Stephanie->Eleanor
I'd be inclined to agree that they're not always clear cut. Your last 2 comparisons were very interesting.
Well I tried to go for actually close characterizations rather than the super easy "I don't like this character, so they're just like Ben" so many people fall into.
Fair enough.
I think Gabe is way more like Nick than Sarah or Duck
I've been saying that since the beginning. Also, it was Ben everyone were comparing him to, not Duck.
I've seen some compare to Duck but yeah I forgot to include Ben
