  • Not just because she killed Eli...

    Anyway, Eli didn't need to die, that's a waste of a bullet. We don't even know for sure he was even trying to rip her off, he was noticeably frightened, and seemed to wanted to compromise for the bad quality Clem received, he was going to give her batteries back. Clementine pulling the trigger contradicts her own season 2 advice as well, not to mention, she doesn't even give a shit after she kills him, just "please cover up for me Javier lol, look how impulsive I am, whoops!" The only reason we get from Clem killing Eli is "I DIDN'T GET BULLETS REEEEEE", and yes, I get that those bullets could've gotten her killed, and Clem killing Eli in the first place should've been determined by your season 2 Clem, like Telltale was talking so highly of prior to the release of this god awful season, but Clem changes not in the slightest. Clem doesn't do anything differently, and has issues being a solid character this season in general. I would've preferred they just omit Clem from this season.

    Regardless, the point being is that her change from seasons 1 and 2, to season 3, is definitely not a welcomed one by many people, and it's so night and day it's laughable how abysmal her character her is now. For those that didn't play edgy Clem in season 2, this is blatant, and many people I've discussed this with agree with the change, and typically dislike Clem this season.

    I know you're going to disagree with the first segment, I'd honestly prefer you not reply in regards to that topic specifically, as we've had that discussion in the past, and it ended up a shitposting festival. You think it was justified, I don't believe Clem should've been the one to pull the trigger (my Clem/Lee are moral, didn't descend to their level of asshattery, especially not going to kill people off little information and impulse), etc. The recycled arguments go on...

    Well s1 clem.would never of survived without lee and everyone changes like this in twd just compare days gone by rick to.current rick.

    Yes, and everyone's Lee told Clem to not let the apocalypse change who they (unless you didn't take Clem to Crawford, I don't know if he says it otherwise, but most people have a moral Lee statistically; same rules apply unless you're douchebag Lee). If Clem were to ever actually change her character, it would've been after Lee's death, my Clem remained moral. The season 3 transition however, was shoehorned with a <5 minute flashback, and a time skip, and boom, Clem has no dynamic values, only edge and impulsive behavior.

    Hell, she doesn't even act clever anymore, before, even in season 1 as a side character, there was always a clever and intelligent sentiment displayed, but in season 3, she feels like a generic Hollywood action movie teenager. Season 3 is a great example of fan service to the people who wanted a "badass" Clem, despite her being more badass in season 2 while remaining a great character (in my opinion as always).

  • What's the implication? That they were too focused on X event that they were overcompensating or trying too hard to make it """well-written"""? Maybe I'm just too tired right now to comprehend this completely.

    DabigRG posted: »

    Do you think the writers of ANF were overly concerned about focusing on certain things because they felt they were too obvious?

  • Agreed. It's also worth noting that the bullets were apparently working until literally right as they were at the gates of Prescott clearing walkers with Tripp, meaning she was more or less threatening him into a refund because one or two bullets messed up on the way to see him and ended up accidentally murdering him when she wouldn't calm down.

    I realize Telltale pretty much dug themselves a hole with the whole #MyClementine thing, but the Clementine I remember wouldn't have been that blatantly careless with other people's lives.

    I mean that there are certain plotlines and character interactions that you'd think they put a fair amount of focus and effort into to tell an engaging story, but for one reason or another, they sped through the ones they didn't drop altogether.
    Ex. Vengeful Conrad, Clementine and Gabe's actual relationship(outside of shipteasing, I mean), Tripp's presumable experience helping the group, Eleanor and Clementine's dynamic, etc.

  • Yeah, I got that part; what was asking is how did they crash so bad that they got surrounded by walkers.

    Anyway, @Deltino answered this in a different thread sometime after I asked this though.

    Gabe forced him to crash by grabbing hold of the wheel, he says as much in one of the endings.

    Bandit leader actually had some pretty blue eyes. I like to think he's really handsome to contrast with the grating hick voice and attitude.

  • Oh yeah, definitely. Would've toned down everyone's judgmental assumptions that they know nothing about survival and should've been around this far in. Which has gotten very old on top of being boring, btw.

    I always [accurately] assumed that Gabe and Marianna did undergo training from Kate and/or Javier, they never had to use it often, to Gabe's chagrin and Marianna's preference.

    Funny But do you think a scene where they get surrounded like that and have to fight them off as a family would have improved the episode?

    I agree, as I said before I usually complain about removed scenes/lines, but in this instance they made the right choice leading us to believe crawford hung himself when he saw his perfect survivor's community crumble around him.

  • Yeah, but the karma element probably would've made it just as funny.

    Louche posted: »

    Good idea, you're right about 70% of the time. Plus seeing Conrad get bitch slapped by Ava wouldn't have been as silly as Tripp getting knocked down like that.

  • Ah yes, another point I forgot to include: All of the cartridges functioned before and after Clem revisits Eli (unless the cartridge was to blame while she was getting into Prescott). Thanks for pointing that out. It appears there was 3 misfires in a row, but that honestly could have been an issue with her pistol (the environment is rough, gun may need cleaning or other maintenance), we have no direct confirmation that it was the cartridges themselves, and honestly it feels as if Eli wasn't ripping her off, or wasn't trying to rip her off. I doubt Eli made it this far in the apocalypse selling people cartridges that aren't reliable/don't function at all.

    What's the context of this gif? Im assuming it's a joke about Tripp, Gabe or David?

    Also:

    Does picking Luke in the story builder affect any dialogue in ANF at all?

  • Ah, yeah, they definitely should've focused on other developing sub-plot relations/tensions/events/etc. That's what made this series even better as it felt more polished and detailed, and assisted in character development regardless. I'm quite disappointed in Telltale though with Clem especially this season as you know, so I'll refrain from ranting about that.

    Also I watched Gabe's death scene, it honestly wasn't depressing or sad for me, Gabe's just like "lol Clem grab (you mean "take"?) these cards...", "Javier I want to kill muhself now, the painnnnnnn aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa".

    Some cringy dialogue and cliche raining despite there being no signs earlier (regarding the rain), and some idiots say "It's as sad as Lee's death"....why?

    What happens if Conrad dies in Episode 4? Does Kate already know that she ran over him or is there an option to tell her that she ran over our beloved Comrade? Or is it completely forgotten about?

    Also, if there is an option to tell her, can someone find/link a video about it? I tried looking it up, but I couldn't find a video about it myself.

    I...have nothing to say to this, since YMMV. All I know is that the fact that Gabe is determinate and that Clementine can essentially say that she was falling for him was a huuug copout.

  • I...have nothing to say to this, since YMMV. All I know is that the fact that Gabe is determinate and that Clementine can essentially say that she was falling for him was a huuug copout.

    Ugh, Clem shouldn't even have determinantly been in love with him in the first place, cringy as hell, most people didn't want it. Regardless, this just helps proves my point of Telltale's fan service, accompanied by Clem being more "badass"....

    I'm just waiting for season 4 """Clementine""" to be determinantly a lesbian or bi. The ship has already sunk due to this season, it could probably descend further downward though.

    What went wrong? Why is this season significantly worse and flatlined compared to the previous seasons? Did Telltale just go full libtard LGBT pandering squad? Or possibly just a bad selection of writers and decision making (decisions such as this abysmal new engine)?

  • Ugh, Clem shouldn't even have determinantly been in love with him in the first place, cringy as hell, most people didn't want it.

    Hence why I was always of the mindset that they just be mostly platonic friends(if Javier/David's influence doesn't change that) and Gabe non-determinately survives so that should anyone actually approve of that shit, they can consider fulfilling/jossing it for Season 6 and still have the high ground by keeping it as just fandumb stuff.

    I suppose that does make sense, I thought Hector was that when I first played episode 1. Man, he was pointless.
