Discuss Episode 2 trailer

BigLee · September 2018

Here is to say anything you think of the ep 2 trailer:
-New Characters
-What did you think of the trailer?
-Your Conclusions
My opinion: I only see 1 minute of trailer I'm sure this episode will be the best of the 4 ep. One thing I was intrigued that came back 2 great characters were revealed 1 and the other? Other than that we will see what is the dream of Clem and has nothing to do with the ranch. And another thing that puts the foot on her head is not Lilly I'm sure of this. I also think that they are going to have to leave the School because of the invasion, to see it clearly when they are in the forest.
sorry for English

Clem and Violet alone in a bell tower. What could go wrong.

DabigRG · September 2018

It's nice to have a thread like this, but you're pretty late with it. Hopefully, people can start flooding in to talk about the trailer as a whole and reassert their impressions.

Your English is understandable, don’t worry

First and foremost, Lilly’s return is very exciting. We haven’t seen her in such a long time, and she’s the last link to season one. Also (I’m basing this off of the episode art), the inclusion of the whisperers will prove to be quite interesting.
The trailer was extremely well done - it said so much while showing so little. We know this episode is going to be tense, but we really have no idea what exactly is going to go down. With most telltale trailers, you can kinda infer the events of the episode, but I’m lost when it comes to this one. For sure one of the best trailers Telltale has ever done.
In conclusion, I’m beyond excited for episode 2, and can’t wait to jump back into the universe. When it comes to my “how will you react to Lilly” plan, I’ll be willing to move forward if she’s ready to own up to the heinous act she committed.

I think on the other hand what could be right

DabigRG · September 2018

Here's a recounting of my reactions
H. Jon Benjamin: Oooh my goodness...

Wait, that wasn't Mitch...

.

Was it [James from Michonne]?

Oh, fuck me....

.

If the raiders are involved, I kinda hope Violet(and Clementeen) does[ get hurt]a little.

.

AJ had a bit of an Irish accent there at one point.

.

while the voice and the speech itself was relatively spot on, the physical reveal is kinda bad looking, if I'm being frank.

.

Hopefully, she will at worst be A major antagonist, but not necessarily THE villain.

.

To be fair, Kenny's return was meant to be this emotional reuniting(for those who really cared) and leaving it open[ for the surprise] was somewhat plausible at the time.

Telltale are obviously banking heavily on Season 1 and early Season 2 nostalgia/hype for this game.

.

Unless I missed something, Abel isn't in this trailer.

.

Almost looks like AJ's backed/fell into him[Abel] after something happened in front of him, but I will say the fact that he's there(if that is him) is telling.

.

That boy that looks like Mitch when Nikki speaks the second time.
It's either James or hopefully Alex.

.

Whispers?

.

He looks more like an older Alex, if you ask me. Which I hope is the case.

.

Mm...eh...?
Like, at least they're actually taking advantage of what set aside before, regardless of popularity, but this was such a long time coming and partially in such an obvious manner that any impact is kinda lost on me.

.

There's gotta be some united basis for story consistency sake, but I hope so[two versions of Lily].

.

Oh shit, the fearsome foe by the name of Oilly is in this?!

.

What mask?

.

I love how clicking auto-translate caused the page to immediately jump up to Jackie Chan's confused face just now.
AJ getting ready to use the Emeralds.
"The protected of coutras life a ranger who te surprise a ball that you do not avoid."

.

Oh, fuck him for real tehn[if James Fairbanks is the romance option].

.

Speaking of which[spoiler that someone previously pretty much spelled out], that skyshot makes me think(or it would anyway) I may have to repurpose an old phrase in protest.

.

The game apparently checked for Michonne DLC data upon installation last month, which similarly raised the possibility that a surviving character from there would be in this.

The boy does indeed somewhat resemble Alex and James, Sam and Greg's little brothers who left with Michonne, Pete, Paige, Siddiq, and determinately Oak and Sam herself at the end.

.

Idk...they've been so blunt and obvious damn thing that it could honestly go either way.

But yeah, history dictates it's the latter[Lily is a red herring].

.

AJ?
I can't see the video on this page, so I'd have to check[a light voice calling for Clementine].

.

I'm pretty sure it's either AJ or Violet.
Unless you're talking the struggle immediately before, in which case I think someone spoiled that BS already.

.

Yes, but Telltale confirmed it's a different character.

.

She is the only reasonable alternative, yes[Violet being the voice].

.

That depends on how long it's been since the Miniseries[how old he'd be now].
Also, Alex was just more intriguing(?) a character.

.

Again, it can go either way[Christa may be the threat from the past].

.

Now that @Poogers has made a meme with it, can I say more directly that that physical reveal model[Lily] looks kinda stupid?

.

Is there one at the school or is this them exploring[Clock/Bell Tower]?

.

It's not James. But what you're saying kinda makes me hope I'm more right[Lily is a cultist and abducted Alex to be a member].

.

It's not James Fairbanks.
It's just James the Greasepaint

.

Oh, okay.
So Telltale more or less openly acknowledged that people look in their files[James is named there]? That's...rather forthright of them.

.

Because Minstrel Shows and sexual tension are a terrible combination.[]

.

What's funny is that I think she has the opposite problem they had.[TFS!Lily compared to TtBP1!Kenny&Jane]

.

Or, that there is something of surprise in the episode and that being in there ain't exactly it

.

It's kinda obvious(moreso here than in other examples) that Lilly here is a recycled Season 2 character concept[Kenny Carver].

iFoRias · September 2018

Wtf

DabigRG · September 2018

Which one?

iFoRias · September 2018

If the raiders are involved, I kinda hope Violet(and Clementeen) does[ get hurt]a little.

Sir.

DabigRG · September 2018

Oh.
....
Well, it's basic drama stuff, really.

Chibikid · September 2018

Don't know why they keep insisting on the completely rhetorical "Am i murderer" deal, but it looks like Tenn most likely dies along with Violet/Louis too. I'm curious where Rosie fits in all of this since Marlon's gone and she's noticeably absent from the trailer.

DabigRG · September 2018

What makes you think that?

Chibikid · September 2018

Telltale's track record and speculation.

FERKILL377 · September 2018

If I'm not mistaken, Telltale confirmed that Tenn will live for AT LEAST 3 episodes.
Moreover, it would be too early in the series to kill off Louis and Violet in episode 2.Maybe in the 3rd one, but certainly not in the 2nd

DabigRG · September 2018

Might as well mention the moment where Clementeen, AJ, Louis, and Violet are walking through the woods, with the latter two hanging back together and the first looking over her shoulder at them with a concerned/scrutinizing scrunch.
There's probably some tense feelings starting to brew a bit there, possibly based on both your relationship with the two and especially what happened with Marlon.

Sir_Tubs · September 2018

i missed lily

DabigRG · September 2018

Here's two other things that I brought up elsewhere:
Lily's speech is thematically similar to the one Nick gives in A House Divided's trailer.
There's what appears to be a relatively petite female walker tied to a gate during the flashes near the end.

Deathbeam · September 2018

Rosie is the only confirmed character that will live this season. Telltale says that they will not harm her.

Chibikid · September 2018

I don't think that's the case. The writer said she was safe through EP1, but couldn't promise afterwards.

And out of all the characters, Rosie being the only guaranteed survive is a complete waste.

Razer531 · September 2018

Did they confirm that somewhere?

Chibikid · September 2018

I believe the writer confirmed she'd live for EP1, but couldn't promise after that.

Zombiekiller3121 · September 2018

Anyone think that Lilly was at the Ranch? I speculate that is how AJ became so nonshelaunt with killing people. Clem should've been able to tell him the wrongs of killing people while they were out on their own, and have him follow it. Maybe having Lilly in his life during his more impressionable years influenced him more than Clem anticipated.

BigLee · September 2018

Yeah, and Clem killed all of them and that explains Lilly's face when she looks at Clem.

Zombiekiller3121 · September 2018

What can I say?

A mother's love is boundless

DabigRG · September 2018

I suppose that would be a way of ensuring that McCaroll Ranch gets some exploration, but I sincerely doubt it.
And honestly, it just potentially sounds like more fuel for demonization.

FERKILL377 · September 2018

She will definitely live through episodes 2-3, just look at the achievements on Steam
