How do you feel about Javi returning?
I absolutely love Javier, but I honestly hope he's not a major part of season 4. Honestly, if TT has return, if at all, I hope its not until the end of the season when Clem goes back to Richmond with AJ.

I definitely wouldn't mind Javier being a main character, but I kind of doubt that's the direction Telltale is going with for season four (and it would depend on what exactly the story for season four is going to be). The entire season built up to those final moments in the finale where Javi basically agreed to lead the new Richmond (technically it was a choice, but...). Javi now seems to have his hands full with running Richmond, and he didn't seem to show any plans of actually helping Clementine physically look for AJ. He stays back when she leaves, and the implication behind both of his final dialogue choices with her (bring him back, leave him be) is that he expects she will one day return to Richmond.
I've seen a few ideas thrown around about having Clem and Javier once again being shared protagonists, and some parts of the episode being dedicated to the difficulties of leading Richmond. While that idea is very appealing to me in different aspects, I think Telltale is gonna have a much bigger focus on Clementine's story and shine a much bigger spotlight on her as a main. Having a deuteragonist would be very, very risky in trying to balance Clem's individual story and that element of it.
So, as it stands right now, I think his particular story as a main is done. Now, because I liked playing as Javi and I want that player payoff from seeing him again, I can definitely see him making some appearances and cameos throughout the season. Not to mention, it would be really cool to see a scenario where Clementine does return to Richmond and we get an update on life there: what Javi is like as a leader, what the determinants have been up to (we saved some of them, so I want to actually see them alive and somewhat happy). Maybe Javi could at one point rejoin Clementine in her mission to save AJ in some capacity, if she seeks his help. I can see that they've left just enough ends tied up, and others loose, that we won't necessarily ever hear from the Garcia's ever again.
Well, everyone thought season 2 was going to be the end for Clementine because of the multiple endings and whatnot. I hope if Javi comes back that they don't just off everyone for plot.
Same, I really hope TT doesn't kill him for shock value.
I'm sure he'll be fine since he lives no matter what. It's Kate and Gabe that I'm worried about. But yeah I agree
Same. I think he makes a great protagonist, but I don't want Telltale to include him in the next season because his story is simply done. There is no reason to bring him in just for the sake of it.
I fail to see why anyone would still be attached to the two-dimensional cardboard cutouts that are Kate and Gabe.
You need glasses then.
Javier's character would be most likely wasted or ruined If he were to return.
Javier is great but hopefully he doesn't come back. He should just be left as leader of Richmond.
No I don't want him back I had enough of him.
I don't mind if he returns but it should be saved for episode 5. Clem has set off on her own to find AJ so there's really no reason why he'd appear before she returned to Richmond.
I don't mind if Javier returns, but on one condition...
What, you don't like his beard?
Just a tad XD
Season 4 is probably gonna be Clem main again. I like Javier but i don't see him returning as a actual playable character... maybe a cameo or something though.
For all we know season 4 Clem probably gonna run into kenny again. Clem: "You were dead." Kenny: "Nah I wasn't."
I honestly thinks he looks way too odd without it.
