Who cried during the finale?

[DatDude]

Admitting tears is no shame:(

[BrandonTehBaws]

First time I've cryed in at least 5 years. Nice job, Telltale

[G1orkatsos]

*raises hand*

[george1120]

I was teary eyed. I had to resist crying.

[o0HeaDShoT0o]

Dave Fennoy was right to have some tissues. I feel no shame in shedding tears during the finale.

[Moneymich383]

I cryed when
SPOILER ALERT!!!!!!!!








kenny and ben die :(

[BrandonTehBaws]

Oddly enough, I was more sad with Kenny dieing with Ben then the "ending". Was just a rush of so many different emotions and dumbfounded.

[Dead_Man_Walking]

I wanted to cry, dammit! :mad: I called in sick to work, I loaded up on soda pop, chips and nearly nonexistent Twinkies and settled in for the long haul. I usually don't "junk food" unless I know it's going to be good. There's nothing like a tearjerker to tie your stomach up in knots and make you want to hurl.

The closest I got to that was vomiting with rage. I was actually kind of angry with the finale of the series. It seemed REALLY lackluster and rushed, in my opinion. The only reason I would have to cry, was for the above mentioned robbery of my emotionally sentimental moment.

Thanks, TTG. The rest of the episodes were great, though. ;)

Not sure if serious gif.

[Dead_Man_Walking]

Not sure if serious gif.

Dead serious. No pun intended. :P

[DatDude]

Dead serious. No pun intended. :P

Yeah the episode was short..but I believe it was meant to be short. There was needed sense of urgency and obviously time was running out.

How could you not shed tears as Lee requested Clem to kill him..and his final few words as he departed.

I'm not really sure why you consider it lackluster either.

I'm not really questioning your emotions, but if that doesn't make you feel than I don't know what would.

[PhotonCC]

I'll admit it, Two scenes utterly made me cry. It was when i discovered Ben was impaled and Kenny sacrifices himself to spare Ben from his biggest fear, and also the whole ending.

[Questionaire]

I admittedly bawled throughout the credits.

[Joker93]

I just staired at the screen. "Aw no, don't give me quick decisions at a time like this!" I could feel my heart beating faster, & finally just sat there, as I watched Clem point her gun at me, expressionless. I took a moment before reading through my decisions & just let myself drift off into the song... The after credits scene was hard to put into words. Ok, good, she's alive & in a beutiful field, away from the zombies. Ok, where's Omid & Christa?... Did I give them bad directions? Oh, two people in the distance. I guess that's them... Ok, why's she looking scared?... Oh, black screen, great... Is she going to die now? AAAAAH!!!!

That's fair enough. Everyone is entitled to their opinions, and I'm certainly not bashing TTG. I plan on checking out the second season.

The scene, at the end, didn't seem that well thought through, from my point of view. When Clemmy shot him, I think most of it had to do with the fact that we KNEW she would (Although the "Walking away" scene, where she doesn't shoot him, was equally lackluster). I would have thought that the conversation the two shared would have been more emotional. Even though we taught her these things, she just seemed too accepting of it. I just felt there should have been more emotion behind it.

My emotions, like everyone elses', are different than one can expect. I went through a traumatic experience, almost like this one, save for the walking dead and the gun shot to the head... and the roles were switched. I had braced myself for nearly a year for it, and when it happened, I completely broke down. I consider myself fairly tough, and I've been through a lot of crap, but after that I was done. I couldn't bring myself to move for hours. The ending just seemed... so.... quick, I guess. I just didn't feel anything on it.

[JPG619]

I did, really touching episode. :(

I am still crying as I am typing this

[GC Boombox]

I blame TellTale Games for a horrible storyplot for killing off every single characters in the final episode besides Omid, Christa and Clementine.

[BlankCanvasDJ]

It's The Walking Dead, you're lucky that many people lived. I was a little surprised that they didn't all die, actually.

[Moggyoxys]

Same

[JabbaDaHuttX7]

I youtube'd the whole episode, not being a PS3 owner and (usually) not minding spoilers, I have to admit I'm a little disappointed by the ending. Don't get me wrong, this game is great. It's possibly my GOTY, but the whole thing was very predictable at the end.

The main character dying, the fact that Lee was never gonna survive the somewhat inreconcilable dual plot threads of cutting his hand off or going along with the bite (at the very least it was obvious that we were never gonna play as Lee again), the tearjerker of Clementine having to shoot Lee (or let him turn) which, kinda everybody had already predicted -- the bittersweet ending with Clementine walking off into the sunset by the countryside alone? The only thing that was missing from this was "Fifteen years later. Camera zooms in at a bunch of walkers. Their heads explode. Camera moves to face Clementine, now 24, holding a shotgun. She had become the leader of a new group of survivors, and was faithfully carrying on the legacy of the Everett."

That would have been bad, in my opinion.

Clementine is a good supporting character, but I hope she doesn't become the focus of the entire 'Season Two' like she did in Episode 5.

In spite of this, it was still a powerful conclusion to the series. And I am eager to see Season Two.

[skepticalguy90]

It's The Walking Dead, you're lucky that many people lived. I was a little surprised that they didn't all die, actually.

I think that is one of the problems with TTG with the The Walking Dead. They tell such a great story, and make such great characters, it sucks when they kill them all off.

[papichul016]

I fucking cried like a bitch & im A 16 years old boy it got to me I was not expecting that just makes you think about life & take it more serioisly

[Tommyo3000]

I didn't cry, just because of the shock of all that happened in the episode and I just couldn't believe I was losing Lee.. RIP Lee,Kenny,Chuck,Carley,Doug,Mark,Duck,Katjaa,Ben and all others we lost throughout this great game... Even you Larry.

[KingOfTheDead]

no didnt cry almost toward the end an kennys death. i felt it was rushed and it seemed sequal hungry,and the lee arm cut really had no point. There was just one big twist i didnt see coming. still great ep.

[GameGal]

Surprisingly,I didn't shed one tear through the whole episode.That makes me sound heartless I know.lol It was sad but I didn't cry.

[Dead_Man_Walking]

Surprisingly,I didn't shed one tear through the whole episode.That makes me sound heartless I know.lol It was sad but I didn't cry.

Heartless? Nah. :D I'm in the same boat. :P Sometimes I think people are overly sensitive toward situations, don't get out much, or haven't been exposed to the plethora of novels, shows and games out there. Especially for crying over this. Of course, no offense to anyone that did cry. ;)

[NicoleRaye]

:rolleyes:I youtube'd the whole episode, not being a PS3 owner and (usually) not minding spoilers, I have to admit I'm a little disappointed by the ending. Don't get me wrong, this game is great. It's possibly my GOTY, but the whole thing was very predictable at the end.

I was disappointed also. Killing off the main character was kind of cheesy. I won't be buying Season 2. I'll proudly watch it on Youtube (like you) for free :) Still a great game, but the ending was something everybody on this forum kinda came up with already :rolleyes:

[DatDude]

Way to support telltale guys! :rolleyes:

[canadianzombie]

couldn't stop, right in the feels!!!! ;A;

[SonnyN18]

You know, I'm more ashamed that I didn't cry. I'm cold as a stone.

[JabbaDaHuttX7]

Way to support telltale guys! :rolleyes:

I already bought the game on PC, in case that wasn't clear. The season pass or what's-it-called.

[DatDude]

I already bought the game on PC, in case that wasn't clear. The season pass or what's-it-called.

I was more responding to the, "I won't be buying season 2, rather i'll just watch it on youtube" comment.

You guys don't understand that every copy sold helps. It might seem meaningless, oh what will 1 sale mean in the long run?

But what is an ocean but composed of multitude of meaningless droplets?

More people buy walking dead, the bigger tell tale can grow as a company and hopefully create better games with higher production values in the future.

[iosepusmagus]

And now that Lee is gone, I cannot cry hard enough, no I cannot cry hard enough, for him to hear me now.

[2-_-DEAD]

I may or may not have shed a couple tears lol.

[Drix153]

I wanted to cry so bad. The tears were right there, ready to flow, but they didn't. I don't know why. Maybe it's because my senses were so overwhelmed. I was devastated the entire time during the period with Ben and Kenny (you know what I'm talking about). I choked up during the part where Clem was helping Lee walk and how she was telling him he could lean on her. It was just so beautiful and sad... Kudos to TTG. One of the best stories I've ever had the honor of experiencing.

[swebonny]

I expected to drop a few litre of tears, but none came. I guess it was all the talk about the emotional ending that made me brace myself.

I just finished it though and I'm completely empty in my head. I feel depressed.

[ToSch]

When Ben and Kenny died and the last talk with Clem. Couldn't see half my answers because of it. :o

[Nekrocop]

After Clem shot me, i really felt like i was Lee Everett. I was shot.
I was dead. She was safe. I tried not to cry, but after the statistics i was about to. The ending song did me in.

I have never felt something as powerful as this, not in the TV show and not in the comic book. Bravo TTG! You lived up, hell, even surpassed our expectations!


And now we wait.
For Season 2.

[HooblaDGN]

I generally don't cry except in incredibly rare circumstances. I've had to be strong for my family a lot of the time and cryin' just don't much help when shit goes down.

And I didn't physically cry during the finale.

But I teared up. And in my soul, I was crying like a little girl with no hope, and I'm not ashamed of that :(

It was a good ending. I'm sad that it had to end the way it did. But the goal was Clementine, so...

Ugh. I will be crying in my soul for a while yet for this story. I was sad at Jurassic Park, but, TTG: you dun' good with Walking Dead. Lords of Kobol.

[David Starsky]

I stopped the game for a second there during the end to sob, honestly.

I had this melancholy bittersweet feeling as the end credits music played. I just kept repeating 'Taught her everything she could.' and smiled at the after-credits scene.

[HooblaDGN]

I expected to drop a few litre of tears, but none came. I guess it was all the talk about the emotional ending that made me brace myself.

I just finished it though and I'm completely empty in my head. I feel depressed.

Don't let it depress you, man. The guy did his job and more. And Clem... well, Clem is Clem. She'll find a way.

[J0k3rr]

I'm so sad...

[Shadowhunter]

Somehow, YES. Games haven't been known to have this effect on me, just shows how well TellTale made this story.

[SkatesSC]

Duuuuude. When Clem started crying I was DONE. No piece of entertainment ever hit me that hard. Ever. I got teary eyed before, but never actually shed tears... until now. Well fucking done Telltale!

[Yertos]

watered up when Kenny and Ben died, bawled my head off when Lee died haha.

[thebigbad]

Didn't actually outright cry but there were several times where my eyes watered up.

[savi]

I'm going to blame it on my womanly raging hormones is why I cried for majority of the episode...Yeah, that's it..

http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lsrt49N3W21qkmpj8o1_500.gif

[Planeforger]

Yeah, I cried after telling Clem to shoot Lee. First time I've ever cried during a videogame, too.

Well played, Telltale. Well played.

[ZombieGoBoom]

I cried but I resisted from wiping away the tears to keep two firm hands on the controller just in case.

[gameaddictwn]

I am extremely sad and slightly depressed, but I did not cry unfortunately.

[Crusher87]

Let's say I was happy noone was playing this episode with me, haha :D. Had two scenes where I really had to wipe away some tears.

[larrylee]

There were som tears during the last scene. I've never cried watching a movie, and certainly not a video game, so I guess that goes to show how brilliantly made this game is.

[FoxxyFox]

Yes, I did specially when Clem said: "Don't Go" I had it in this game only the 2nd time and the 1st time was when Carley got shot. :(

The last time I ever cried because of a videogame was because in Final Fantasy 7 when Iris died.

[M1SF0RTUNE]

Fuck you Telltale, you made me feels! I cried too.

This is coming perhaps from one of the more jaded individuals who never felt such emotion from a game in the 15 years I've been playing them.

[Brohan]

I cried when I saw Lee's face in that jewelery store Clementine brought him... it was... horrible...

[just-some-guy]

I cried. I'm not a very emotional person, but that ending broke me.

[v0idance]

Right after Lee passed out, the situation with Clementine made me cry.

[SuperMeatBoy]

I was deadly close to.. that credits song just tempted me to shed tears.

[GoFigure]

Not sure if it counts as crying but I got teary eyed, my throat felt hard and I had... um... hiccups.

At least I didn't feel empty like after finishing Mass Effect 3.

[lilTomTom]

I didn't like how Lee died. However I chose to tell Clem that finding her parents dead was a good thing. It brought he closure. And no reason for her to keep looking for them anymore and risking her life.

Every thing I hope I chose was for the greater good.

[QuarterPounderVlad]

I cried like a little bitch and I won't play this game again because I'll start to yell and die ultimately.

[Tanukitsune]

I cried through most of the episode... (╥﹏╥)

[Milosuperspesh]

one eye got a bit more moist than normal and my throat still has a lump in it lol

[Zeruis]

I cried when Kenny sacrificed himself for Ben, and during Lee's final conversation with Clem. Oh, can't forget the credits too.

[oligo]

I was pretty much crying right from when Ben stood up to Kenny after the boat got stolen, all the way to when Lee gets Clementine, I was in floods of tears in the last chapter. Then the credits happened and I started bawling.

Still just randomly bursting into tears every now and again.

This game should come with a therapy session afterwards.

[Araron]

I just,right now,5 mins ago,finished the fifth episode.And I admit,I cried. :( Man that ending.

[Ringthane]

My decision was for Clem to leave Lee handcuffed and save the bullet. The last bit before the credits was a shot of Lee dying and slumping against the radiator. And once the credits started rolling, THAT was the moment that made me cry because I realized Lee would never know whether Clem made it out of the city. And Clem would be all alone from that point. That was the saddest moment for me. Then there was the epilogue, and at least I knew she got out of the city.

[Cooperal]

I predicted that Clem would eventually be put in a position where she would have to shoot and kill Lee. Guessed it, and even typed about it before Episode 3 was out (hurray for not being sad enough to boast about it in a new thread).

I could feel my eyes welling up in the final scene. Just after Clem helped me along near to the door. I felt that teaching Clem about your puzzle solving detracted from it a bit. Would've been nice to see how well we'd already taught her instead.

After she'd bashed the officers head in, it started to get emotional again. Held it together until the end. I was even talking to the screen, telling Clem not to shy out of pulling that trigger. About 10 seconds into the credits and I had some tears coming down my face.

Most games that play on emotions are lucky if they even get my eyes watering. I shed maybe 5 or 6 tears.

Now this is one piece of gaming media that I think the family might enjoy trying.

[glennfetherston]

I had a lump in my throat and i was really sad but i didnt cry but if i did i wouldn't be ashamed

[MesterF]

I didn't cry. But almost

[SnoopdogRL]

I was baulling my eyes out

[JPutman1183]

Yes I cried.:D

[Koops64]

I didn't cry. But, I feel so empty and lost. God... =(

[Zombay]

I cried...

[lurchibald]

Yep, tears were shed

[donmike84]

i almost cryed but resited i knew lee was gonna die anyways but it was still the most depressing game i ever played killing 4 out 7 charaters

[Warp zx]

I wasn't bawling, but I had tears in my eyes when Clem found out that lee was bitten. I just put my head in my hands and sat there fow a few minutes.

[Aptonoth]

No, Clem got to live. No tears. A sick man dies, a little girl lives. Fair trade.

[UndeadDollface]

I did not. Not once. I guess I used them all up at the end of episode 4. :/

[BlankCanvasDJ]

No, Clem got to live. No tears. A sick man dies, a little girl lives. Fair trade.

Nice.

[DarcKage]

I got dem feels in my stomach at the final part.

Just because it was so heartbreaking to see a little girl having to make such a hard decision like that. Didnt cry though.

[Agent Piltdown]

I wasn't just crying I was sobbing. This game truly earned my tears with those final moments... What a heart wrencher. I need a hug. :(

Ahem. Thank you Telltale for such an amazing experience with this game.

[ruairi46]

If so when what made you cry.
What hit me hard was saying to kenny ben wanted to die while sitting on the couch and just all the stuff with ben and kenny. Don't think I cried but deffo sad.

[Lost Mercenary]

The ending. Nuff said.

[QuarterPounderVlad]

There's another thread about this. But ... Yeah. I pretty much cried like a bitch and then I was depressed for a few hours. Now I'm fine.

[Anderson1300]

I honestly got so depressed

[ruairi46]

I honestly got so depressed

Sames right at the end I was just like... Fml.. What do I do now..

[Luizao876]

I didn't cry, but my eyes got teary.

Shit, this game. I can't even explain.

Fuck.
The ending.
Jesus.

[DreadMagus]

I gotta admit, I teared up at the end.

[SuperMeatBoy]

I managed to hold them in, it was terribly hard though. The saddest ending to any game or movie I've ever seen, yet, it was so beautiful.

[shedim]

Seriously, am I the only one who didn't cry?

[MsLox]

At the moment they couldn't open the sliding metal door and Lee had to tell Clem he was bit, I started to cry and didn't stop until the credits finished rolling and it moved into the scene with Clem.

[ruairi46]

There's another thread about this. But ... Yeah. I pretty much cried like a bitch and then I was depressed for a few hours. Now I'm fine.

There is a slight difference in threads as this is for any scene. That is for the ending.

[HanoverFist]

When Clem was crying and had to shoot Lee, I was watery eye'd. Couldn't help it, it was just so damn sad for her.

[crysisnova]

I didn't cry, but it was a messed up ending; I was disturbed and depressed.

Great game. 10/10

[SPINEBLOOD]

Saw the ending three times . Tears still fall like rain. I thought I'd cry for Kenny and Ben but I felt nothing it was weird.

[Canneberge]

Watch the poll above. No, you're one amongst the X (as I write 58) people who didn't.

Didn't cry. The game was really sad, I was sad, but not to the point of crying. This is only a story, and maybe for some people it's sad enough to cry, but maybe I'm too used to being sad for real reasons.
Was still sad. Great game.

[Balisong123]

Unfortunately, due to save game glitches, none of my previous choices (Not taking food, preventing Clem from eating human meat) were registered. No way in hell was I going to go back through on a 15 hour spree and do everything again. Nuh-uh. It would take away the emotional impact.

So, annoyingly, i simply chose randomized solutions. I chose "leave me" because I wanted her to go as fast as she could, I didn't think about other things.

Anyway, OT- fuck yes I cried. I cried like a little baby, and I'm fully grown. I have no problem admitting it. I'm the type of guy that won't cry when a sibling/family member dies (Fortunately, I have all my immediate family alive and well right now. I mean grandparents, great grandparents, cousins, etc.) but will cry my fucking eyes out when a little kitten I tried to save dies. So yes, I cried. Lots. TellTale did an outstanding job telling the story, and I'm glad I got to experience it.

Actually, I didn't cry like BOOHOO WAAAH but I got very teary eyed and I had blurry vision for a few minutes.

[dx1]

Had goosebumps and cried when I fought Clem's captor and she … you know. Cried a little more when she almost refused to do what had to be done and I said, that I'll miss her.

Great game!

[ieatbrains]

I have been following TWD since issue#1! If I did not cry then, imagine me now. Gory is the TWD way.*chomp, chomp*

[CTCCoco]

62 persons have no feelings D:

[Hayzer]

I cried like a little girl in the end, burst into tears when Lee said '' I'll miss you '' incredible how just a game like this makes you feel so emotional in real life not just a game but an amazing experience. Sad it has to end there for Lee. And Kenny's death... I'm just filled with sadness inside, thanks to telltale for making this amazing game and I can't wait for Season 2! :(

[Rink]

I did expect his death, I am glad that Clementine made it a bit further, though.

I cried at the ending (and then became a bit angry at the epilogue :P), was nice emotional.

But it isn't the first time in the game I cried. I cried at the Duck/Katjaa-thing. Really couldn't help it.

[Marumochi]

Guilty.

Just thinking back to the first episode and the original group makes me tear up. *sigh*

[CupcakeUnicorn]

Heartless? Nah. :D I'm in the same boat. :P Sometimes I think people are overly sensitive toward situations, don't get out much, or haven't been exposed to the plethora of novels, shows and games out there. Especially for crying over this. Of course, no offense to anyone that did cry. ;)

I dunno, I get out plenty, am not overly sensitive, am part of a book club, have seen numerous films and played my fair share of story driven games.

I cried. Here is why: I know I will never have the kinds of adventures or stories as fictitious characters will. I will never save a little girl in a zombie apocalypse. I let myself believe wholeheartedly in the story, in the world and in the characters. Even if things don't work in the game (or movie or book) how they should (ie. there is no gravity when there isn't any reason for there not to be) I just don't question it. I let myself believe that everything that is happening is real. Personally I feel like it makes the story better when you let yourself believe. Don't get me wrong, I know the difference between reality and not, but for the time that you're in that world... you're able to experience things that you would otherwise never have a chance to know.

[kirby18]

I was on the verge but I kind of knew what was going to happen half way through the episode (the clem would have to kill Lee) so I kind of prepared myself.

[Emmerd]

No, the ending did not really work for me.
Next to that I always have in the back in my mind that it's just a game, so I'm pretty dry..
(And I'm a woman XD)

If that would happen in real, I would have not survived the first episode, because I would have died from dehydration from shedding all my tears.

But in a game.. Nah.

Loved the game tho!

+

I have cried enough in real life to still cry about stories I guess.. x)

[Emmerd]

62 persons have no feelings D:

I did not cry at the ending.
But it did hurt my feelings that you say this xD.
So I guess I still have them!

[walkerbait00]

i cried so hard that i couldn't see my screen it was so sad

[UndeadDollface]

62 persons have no feelings D:

You're wrong, because now I feel bad. :(

[Gratefully Dead]

Damn right I did.

I never mashed A harder then when I wanted Lee to get his ass up as well. "DAMNIT LEE, COME ON MAN! JUST GET THAT LAST FUCKER FOR HER."

It was hard to give her advice but I did my first time, I'm pretty sure the second time I'mma go for more emotional speeches then being a hard ass teacher. <.< Sooo, I may again and I know what is going to happen.

[AceStarr]

I told Clem to shoot me for two reasons

1) It would make her grow up and know that loved ones shall turn and she has to end it.

2) Lee wont turn into a zombie

[Dee Jay]

Yup, it was drawn out really well with some contrasting choices, shame they
didn't end it at that though.

[Palmer_Eldritch]

I've never cried so hard during a video game. Ever. This game is masterful and Telltale should be proud of what they've accomplished.

Not a fan of the ambiguous ending though. Felt a bit let down that we couldn't exactly find out what happened.

[Ja1862]

Heartless? Nah. :D I'm in the same boat. :P Sometimes I think people are overly sensitive toward situations, don't get out much, or haven't been exposed to the plethora of novels, shows and games out there. Especially for crying over this. Of course, no offense to anyone that did cry. ;)

I'm with you on that, crying over a video game is a bit much if you ask me.

But I can say i did do that when I was 6 loosing at Mario back in the day, that was more cry-rage.

[dustpuffs]

Got a little bit of moisture in one eye, but no actual tears. Sure felt sad for poor Clementine though.

[CapAp]

I have never cried at a video game before. Never even been moved to think "hmm I wonder if anyone cried at this part". I sobbed at the end of this one.

[Dildor]

Yeah, lots of manly tears.

[Plan_R]

I blubbered like a baby, a hungry, angry baby. It was my first time for a video game and I look forward to finding the next game that can do this to me, hope it doesn't take another 20 years.

[Kaapo]

Honestly, Telltale killed off my feelings when they killed off Kenny. I'd been playing through the whole damn series with the one goal, one purpose of getting through all that shit together with my best pal Kenny, or at least get him through it even if I didn't survive, and then this game that is "tailored by the choices you make" just decides to get him killed for no real reason, and give you nothing to do about it. So yeah, at that point I entered "Fucking really?" mode and couldn't give a flipping crap about any of the rest of the episode, or the cheesy ending.

[The_Ripper]

I've cried like a baby at the end.

I've chosen that Clementine left Lee handcuffed in the jewelery store. What a emotive scene, my God.

Then the music in the credits... More tears. I feel like crap right now.

Don't be afraid, Clementine... and she held my hand. Gosh... I love her. :(

[SouthWardRB]

I cried when Kenny died, and I cried when Lee was in the building.


The whole time.

[kikyouchanx]

Tears were shed through the part where Lee and Clem were in the building together after the walkie-talkie guy ordeal was done.

[Mafon2]

I've got something in ma eye, but i've quickly braced myself.

[ColtPeacemaker00]

not a drop, didn't mist up either. never have in any movie or game but it doesn't mean I never felt an emotional tie to the characters.

[Rock114]

Oh yeah I cried. Cried when Kenny helped Christa up and saved her life, and only stopped when I was able to take my frustrations out on the walkers in front of the Marsh House. Then I started up again after Lee showed his bite, and kept at least a steady misty-eyed-ness going up until I had her shoot Lee.

[ColtPeacemaker00]

on an off note though who cried when they shot ole' yeller?.....hands?

[ieatbrains]

I cried when I saw another thread about if I cried.:rolleyes:

[ColtPeacemaker00]

I cried when I saw another thread about if I cried.:rolleyes:

lol

[Arkane]

I teared up, and that has never happened to me before. It was just devastating even though I knew what was going to happen.

[Samcharles]

I didn't cry, I sobbed. I knew what was coming..but watching it was much harder than I expected.

On a side note when I was fighting with the kidnapper I thought my W key was going to break. :)

[Arkane]

I didn't cry, I sobbed. I knew what was coming..but watching it was much harder than I expected.

On a side note when I was fighting with the kidnapper I thought my W key was going to break. :)

Haha, I was gritting my teeth as I spammed the Q key screaming DIE!!!! and continued pressing it long after the prompt had left the screen.

[StephenR369]

I'm crying right now. :( R.I.P Lee, stay strong Clem.

[Cerrano]

No tears, but the low point for me was finding the kid in the attic. That was definitely an "awwww, man" moment.

[Samcharles]

Dear Telltale, I hate you..please make another game like this.

[HiggsBoson2142]

I felt horrible because I never really cry, but on the inside my heart was dead.

[Arkane]

Not sure if it counts as crying but I got teary eyed, my throat felt hard and I had... um... hiccups.

At least I didn't feel empty like after finishing Mass Effect 3.

Which is weird because that's one of my all time favorite games and THIS game made me feel something I never got with Mass Effect 3. Like you I felt nothing after it ended, and even with the EC I felt only a slimmer of something, though that could of been the twitching. At least Telltale committed to their ending.

[StephenR369]

I'm still crying. The fact that I will never see Lee ever again is killing me, and that Clementine will always be without him from now on is doing the same

[IndigoHawk]

I am sad for Clementine, but otherwise TWD isn't sad after awhile. People die all the time for no reason, so it's a bit sad, but not terribly sad the way it was at first.

Since Lee was going to die, he made the most of his life. He got Clem back, got to teach her a couple more things, found her family so that she knows they're gone, and helped her escape. He did everything he could for her and lived a full life by TWD standards. I think I'd raise a glass for him before I'd cry for him. I am sad for Clem that she is alone (or maybe not, depending on who those people are) without Lee, but that's not crying type of sad.

[Emily]

I cried the entire second half of the episode. Like a baby.

[tonyyy123]

last episode did nothing for me...personally the delivery of the last moments wasnt as good as it couldve been...i did almost shed a tear tho when kat and duck bit the dust...did not see that coming and it was emotional as hell lol

[jonathanbloom]

Walking Dead made me cry twice in the last week. I'll say it was definitely the game and the other time could have been the comics or any episode of the show (won't say which to keep it a surprise)

[MuffinMansBro]

I VERY rarely cry, and when I do, it's never over a story. I didn't cry, but I DID feel very sad. I was basically dumbfounded at everything past the Kenny/Ben scene. And I did feel a little misty eyed.

[DeadbeatUK]

I cried and still cry now every time I think about it, I was also literally sick with worry twice thinking about Clems fate in the zombie apocalypse and am considering having a few days off work to get over it... Of course I didn't cry lol great story and sure it was sad but reading some of these comments is hilarious!!

[StreetsAhead24]

Manly tears were shed...okay that may be a bit of a stretch I sobbed like a little schoolgirl lol.

Kidding aside I admit that my eyes were a bit watery. I don't really cry but I was pretty darn close in this one, that hasn't happened to me since watching the movie HOuse of Sand and Fog.

The way that Kenny and Lee went out... man it was just so sad

[CrazedZooChimp]

At the moment they couldn't open the sliding metal door and Lee had to tell Clem he was bit, I started to cry and didn't stop until the credits finished rolling and it moved into the scene with Clem.

Same here. Stupid games, making dust get in my eyes so much...

[kierano87]

The game for me was overwhelming from start the finish. Episode 5 hit me like a bombshell from the start of cutting my arm off.... to losing kenny and ben. Then the ending.. It teared me up... I even played it a second time straight after for a diffrent outcome.... Only made me tear more than the last lol.
Dang! Dat ending...

[kierano87]

I think the part which did it on the end scene was when lee was trying as hard as he could to live just that bit longer to help clem, when he knew that his fate couldnt be avoided it was so emotional.. When he said i really want to help you clem but i just cant now.. I failed blah blah blah not the exact words but yeah.

[bwat47]

This was some of the greatest, and saddest storytelling I have ever seen. Telltale really pulled this off amazingly.

[SevenExxes]

No but I got fairly pissed off. After all the shit Lee goes through, cutting his hand off and everything, he still ends up dying.
I think that really sucked.

[Hamatula]

It's so weird but I cried when Duck was dying, but I couldn't cry while Lee was dying.

[chowyunfat]

The ending was so sad that, I will cry it for the whole night :(
Just kidding, but got some tears in my eyes.. yes

[fruitpunchsamurai]

Manly tears were shed

[Marussian]

I cried all the way during the ending for like 10 or 15 minutes..My eyes became red..I just couldn't stopped crying..I knew what's gonna happen but I cried no matter what..And after the game I cried for couldn't tell the Clem that I loved her :/

[waspbr]

Last time I cried was the 19th of January 2000 when my dog died... The ending was just too much... the connection between Lee and Clem was something that the game developed really well... Damn this game.

[HungryHippo5]

I started crying from about the moment Lee entered the hotel up until about 20-30 minutes after I finished the game. I could not stop. It was absolutely heart-wrenching, and I wouldn't have changed a thing.

[Dildor]

I'm glad I played it when nobody was around, that's all I'll say.

[Nonymous99]

The ending of episode 5 made me cry.

[Zeruis]

I cried when Lee said his goodbyes to Clem. And vice-versa.

[WowMutt]

I started crying from about the moment Lee entered the hotel up until about 20-30 minutes after I finished the game. I could not stop. It was absolutely heart-wrenching, and I wouldn't have changed a thing.

amen!

[Perfect_Cell]

Tear session 1= Kenny's sacrifice(christa) through till lee alives at the marsh house
Yes the walk to the marsh house was badass but i reallllly didn't want lee to get bit again

Tear session 2= After the 2nd failed failed qte of getting up for clem in the garage through till the credits

[Eric Northman]

If so when what made you cry.
What hit me hard was saying to kenny ben wanted to die while sitting on the couch and just all the stuff with ben and kenny. Don't think I cried but deffo sad.

I would have, but I was all cried out over T-Dog, and Rick's wife dying on the tv show.

[JabbaDaHuttX7]

Not really. I was pretty discontent with the ending. I watched the PS3 release on youtube and when it ended, I sorta was like "Seriously? That's it?" The scene at the end was a good one but I had too many gripes.

[Bulbous]

Did you cry at the end? A little? Almost? Come on, admit it!

[JabbaDaHuttX7]

Umm... no.

[Bulbous]

I wept like a little child... why didn't you include a poll?

[george1120]

If so when what made you cry.
What hit me hard was saying to kenny ben wanted to die while sitting on the couch and just all the stuff with ben and kenny. Don't think I cried but deffo sad.

No, I didn't crY. But I did cry.

[george1120]

I can't find a yes or a no in this poll.

[Dead Kev]

I definitely got teary-eyed at the end of Episode 5. Episode 3 had me all kinds of messed up though.

I will say that a video game has never brought out this kind of emotional response like The Walking Dead has done. All I can say is that TellTale did an amazing job.

[george1120]

Oh and I wept like a baby boy for 5 minutes.

[stevean2]

So who else cried as much as pewdiepie?

http://youtu.be/gb94Y-SjDU0?t=16m59s

[Cerrano]

Thanks for posting that video. I was having a rough day and I needed a laugh. lol

[stevean2]

Thanks for posting that. I was having a rough day and I needed a laugh. lol


You're erm.. welcome :D

[Kratos23]

I did tear up a bit....

[HiggsBoson2142]

I felt horrible for actually not crying. Even when Ben and Kenny, my two favorite characters died, I didn't feel much. It's just like what Vernon said!

[Viden]

Very few things make me cry. ("Tough guy" here.) But this brought me close. Very, very close...

I actually usually only cry because of sentimental, but not really sad, moments. Certain love songs, that kind of thing. Tragic and depressing things, I just seal up. This game didn't make me cry. It made me dead inside. At least in the moment.

[Persioncool]

I wanted to, but could stop myself..

[Tienak]

Can't say I cried like Pewdiepie but that scene was very hard to sit through, there aren't many things that make me cry but a friggen video game does it...if only they kept the ending just like that instead of ruining it at the end with the epilogue...oh well.

[klogd]

Hell yeah! :'(

[Cooperal]

The end scene was so well done. Even though I pictured such a scene coming before even Ep 3 was out. Shows, movies and games that provoke emotions in the past usually don't even make my eyes well up. The very very best have never gotten more than two tears out of me. This finale squeezed multiple. Not 10 but it's certainly past the point of BARELY crying.

So that's a new one. Now I've learned something about myself. Thanks TellTale. And for god sakes get a bit more organised with episode releases, I'm not waiting through that hell again.

[Vainamoinen]

I just merged three "Did you cry" threads - sorry for those lost polls, I kept the largest intact. A fourth thread will follow immediately. :rolleyes:

[dinofire]

I cried like Pewdie even on my fifth time watching the scene ;_;

R.I.P. Lee

[MaKTaiL]

Can't say I cried like Pewdiepie but that scene was very hard to sit through, there aren't many things that make me cry but a friggen video game does it...if only they kept the ending just like that instead of ruining it at the end with the epilogue...oh well.

How was it ruined? Season 2 is coming.

[Demopan]

I think that is one of the problems with TTG with the The Walking Dead. They tell such a great story, and make such great characters, it sucks when they kill them all off.

One of the main themes of the everything Walking Dead is that no one is safe. They don't call it the walking dead because of Zombies. They're referring to the people.

[HelloCthulhu]

How was it ruined? Season 2 is coming.

It lessens the impact when you know that the second season is just going to be you being a little girl for an entire season...

[chaz99]

cried during the scene where Katja and Duck died by the railroad tracks.

Cried when Lee died.

[CTCCoco]

I don´t understand the people who say "you are a pussy" or "you are a homo" because you cryed... assholes.

I cryed too... and it´s hard as hell to cry for me.

[Crixus]

So who else cried as much as pewdiepie?

http://youtu.be/gb94Y-SjDU0?t=16m59s

I cried at the exact same moments as pewdiepie :(

[Diduz]

I didn't. I liked the season on a whole but I didn't cry.
I was emotionally struck by the final scene between Lee and Clem, because it was well executed, but... I didn't shed real tears.
As for Kenny, at that point death had become such a routine thing in The Walking Dead universe that I just watched his sacrifice with a: "There goes another one." I think The Walking Dead is more... depressing than moving. :(

[voodoohandbag]

Of course I cried. Why would I be ashamed to admit it? Hormones!

What I've noticed, though - and I'm aware this might sound stupid - the game has had a more profound effect on me long-term. I'm strangely proud of all the choices I made, so it reminded me that I am a good person. And it was easy for me to project myself on to Lee, as I also have a child that I am training to be a strong adult (that's what parenthood is all about) and that I would willingly die to protect.

[englishnick]

I didn't cry like he did over Ben... because I gladly let his coward ass fall down the bell tower... but the ending... yeah... I didn't *wail* like he did... but I pretty much cried like a little girl when playing it... and again when watching Pewdiepie playing through it... and it still upsets me now (though obv not to the point of tears, 'cause that'd be weird).

[Cool man]

I did not believe it that I was crying...but...but..I was.U know because it's a game and at least fo now is not on true story but Telltale Games showed that it is not just a game.
E5 make 75 % of players crying.Thanks Telltale Games for Thanks The Walking Dead.
And...I have an offer for you guys...Watch the TV series too but I love the game more.

[Peace&Love]

I cried and had to force myself not to mewl like an infant. Good job Telltale.

[WD40]

I didn't cry, but I did wind down by listening to some choice music directly afterward.

[Skullpoint]

Hello all. I just want to share this experience with you. In the end of episode 5 i literally cried. My keyboard and chair were soaked wet from tears. I know it's just a game. But i can say that this is the best game i've ever played in my life, and 8 years of active gaming. I don't know if there will be ever this kind of game. I experienced fear, shock, panic, laughter, sadness, hapiness, disgust, heroism and more in only one game. I underestimated you Telltale Games, because i thought you can't make such a great game. Thank you for this game Telltale Games. Thank you, and keep up the good work!

[Tomi021]

I cried(in ep 4 and 3) but not furing the finally i almost cried in ep 5 but i held my tears in.

[TheShaneWalsh]

Well you see, when i played, i was sitting next to Lee in Hell, yes Lee is in Hell, guess picking up little girls after killing someone isn't a good idea if you want to go to Heaven, regardless of how innocent it is. However, he was crying... I was to busy laughing at him crying to even watch the end... My bad...

[AnTea]

First time I cried in front of a cultural thing (Movie, TV Show, VideoGame, Book...). A wonderful experience. Thanks TTG.

[ColtPeacemaker00]

no, no tears or misty eyes at any point in the game

[Kiel555]

I did pretty good up to the point where Lee showed Clem the bite on his arm. Clem's reaction to the bite, Lee saying he was sorry and seeing my favorite character about to die but still struggling to save his friend was just too much. Tissue please...

[AsariTears]

Yes, when Lee and Clem said their goodbyes and Lee told her she's so strong and can do anything. And then told her to always keep her hair short :'(

[Cyreen]

Ditto. A perfect "Aww, *sniff... tears*" ending.

[Maggard]

No offense guys, but if you didn't "see" how this was going to end by the wrap-up of Chapter 2 then you must never have read The Walking Dead or know the basis of it.

There is no "winning" in the Zombie Apocalypse. There is only breaking even for as long as you can.

Lee did everything he could in every way imaginable and you know what? He bought Clem longer to do the same.

No one is safe. Nothing is sacred.

"We ARE the walking dead!"

[ColtPeacemaker00]

I just merged three "Did you cry" threads - sorry for those lost polls, I kept the largest intact. A fourth thread will follow immediately. :rolleyes:

attaboy Vain! And it should be noted that anyone who starts a new "crying" thread "should be boiled with thier own pudding and buried with a stake of holly through thier heart, ", or at least have the Dickens slapped out of them.

[Snake Liquid]

I never reached actual tears, but I did feel an intense sorrow watching the ending play out. I tried both endings to Lee's story, with him asking Clementine to shoot him and asking her to leave him. They are both so intensely sad, but I think asking her to leave him is by far a sadder end.

Her pleading with him to come with her and not become a walker, right to her final words asking him "Don't go..." and then watching as his lifeless body slumps against the radiator. Man, I felt so sad watching that play out. Episode 5 was just intensely sad from beginning to end, much more so than any other chapter and that final chapter in the jewelry store was just plain heartbreaking.

[Conviva Ebrius]

I'd say I was just a shy short of CinnamonToastKen's reaction to this. I had then started to wonder whether I could somehow ratchet up the misery a few steps more, so I went ahead with some musical alterations to the scene. Even if pushing it a little, given our sensibilities, it will certainly pass muster with someone from over here. However, I can only guess how one outside that native background might take to it (likely a deal over the top for some), so consider it at the least a cultural experiment.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZR_oIKuZqpg

[Drealgrin]

Holy Crap, not only did i Cry, i broke down in front of my family. This was insane. I felt a little sad about katjaa, ;ess about the other deaths, but holy crap was the ending heartbreaking.

Not since the last episode of Battlestar Galactica with Adama and Roselyn did i cry so much.

[TheNNerdGamer]

I literally cried on Lee's last moments, when Clem shot Lee I was sad.
At the end of the credits might have been christa and omid at the distance so she might be safe

[Emmerd]

*Slowly raises a hand* ...And I'm a girl.. (Not that matters, cry your eyes out men!)

But seriously, I get a bit hurt by comments like "If you didn't cry at the end, YOU'RE NOT HUMAN >:C". So what am I? An alien? Seriously, I just knew it was just a game, not real. If it was real I would cry untill I died from dehydration. But really, I don't tend to do that a lot in games.

It's okay to cry, but it's also okay when you don't cry.. Right? XD


P.S. Excuse me for my English, it's not my mother tongue c:.

[jord955]

Well if im honest i did feel like crying, and the reason was is because the characters are not just some cheesy made up on the spot people who are like mindless idiots, I actually adapted to the characters (im a guy by the way) And when kenny died...I felt destroyed, I loved him, I loved the whole series. Can't wait for the next 5!

[JakeSt123]

I didn't, I was more astonished than sad.

[Matrox Yang]

I didn't cry (I've never cried at a video game) and didn't even feel like crying. That being said, it was a very good episode and I felt like I'd been punched in the gut when that thing that happened to Kenny happened.

[rachellouise85]

I was more "no...I haven't got Clem back to Omid and Christa" Not now,a little bit more. *keep bashing the button, trying to make Lee get up* Then mixture of feelings, which stopped me from crying.

[Emmerd]

That's true and I respect that.

Cheesy or not, it was still just a game for me.
Of course I was a bit sad.

[cormoran]

I get a bit hurt by comments

You gonna cry?

:p Sorry i couldn't help myself!

[Dildor]

A question for OP and the people who didn't cry. Nothing wrong with that btw.

How recently did you pick the game up? Have you been playing the episodes as they released from the very beginning? I feel like I cried so much because I just got too attached to the characters over all those months. I can see how somebody who bought the game last week and played through it wouldn't experience the same emotions I did, maybe wouldn't cry.

[WD40]

I didn't cry, and to answer the other question, I got each episode on the release day. I did feel emotional, but it takes a fair bit to make me cry. I think the last time I cried from a media source was when Sturm Brightblade dies in the first Dragonlance book trilogy.

[CharmingBirch]

I can see how somebody who bought the game last week and played through it wouldn't experience the same emotions I did, maybe wouldn't cry.

I don't know about that. I played it over the course of a day and a half and shed more than a few. :o

Emotions are weird. I laugh sometimes, especially at jump scares in video games/movies/etc. Not a normal reaction, mind you. For instance, I laughed when Katjaa was trying to help that guy in episode 2 and... well... you know.

[HiggsBoson2142]

I cry when I've given up on hope, and I didn't cry. Well, maybe when Ben was telling me to let him go...

[Dildor]

I don't know about that. I played it over the course of a day and a half and shed more than a few. :o

Emotions are weird. I laugh sometimes, especially at jump scares in video games/movies/etc. Not a normal reaction, mind you. For instance, I laughed when Katjaa was trying to help that guy in episode 2 and... well... you know.

Glad to hear it. :)

I'm not saying this game won't make people who just picked it up cry, just saying they probably won't feel the same attachment as the guy who's had them on his mind for the last 8 months or whatever. ;)

[Zeruis]

I cried at the ending. Then again, I have been playing episodes since they were released.

[CharmingBirch]

Glad to hear it. :)

I'm not saying this game won't make people who just picked it up cry, just saying they probably won't feel the same attachment as the guy who's had them on his mind for the last 8 months or whatever. ;)

I'm sure a lot of us will find out what it feels like when S2 is released. :)

I'm trying to imagine playing through an episode, getting to the cliffhanger ending and then having to wait for the next installment. Pretty sure I would pull my hair out. :(

[Momobyon]

The little boy in the attic made me cry for like an hour but the most that happened for the ending was my eyes misted up a bit. I just was really disappointed with the ending so I was unable to feel all this emotion that other people felt. I guess if you're satisfied with something, you can truly be engrossed in it? The attic boy and Ben and Kenny dying (either separate or together) really...man...really got to me.

[Istibul]

Seriously, I just knew it was just a game, not real.
Thats why some girls should not play videogames. True gamers always compares themselves with an main hero, its like another life behind the monitor's screen.

[Marleysativa]

Thats why some girls should not play videogames. True gamers always compares themselves with an main hero, its like another life behind the monitor's screen.

wat. I have the same outlook, but I'm a guy. Does that mean I shouldn't play video games either? I just... wat.

@ OP: I didn't cry either. It was sad, no doubt, but it was pretty cool knowing that you've given her (Clem) the tools to survive in that world. Kind of like a weird sense of pride, haha.

[Istibul]

wat. I have the same outlook, but I'm a guy. Does that mean I shouldn't play video games either? I just... wat.
If you think "screw all, thats not real, I just tap buttons and then puppet on the screen obeys my orders" - probably, yes. //upd I mean you had a different reasons to not cry, not like OP.

[Hazevamp]

*Slowly raises a hand* ...And I'm a girl.. (Not that matters, cry your eyes out men!)

But seriously, I get a bit hurt by comments like "If you didn't cry at the end, YOU'RE NOT HUMAN >:C". So what am I? An alien? Seriously, I just knew it was just a game, not real. If it was real I would cry untill I died from dehydration. But really, I don't tend to do that a lot in games.

It's okay to cry, but it's also okay when you don't cry.. Right? XD


P.S. Excuse me for my English, it's not my mother tongue c:.


I'm a girl and no crying here. I really felt for Lee and i hated that he had to leave Clem alone. But no tears here.

[Cyreen]

Thats why some girls should not play videogames. True gamers always compares themselves with an main hero, its like another life behind the monitor's screen.

The ability to empathize is not gender specific.

[Drake Sigar]

Thats why some girls should not play videogames. True gamers always compares themselves with an main hero, its like another life behind the monitor's screen.

That's not a fair statement. People are more likely to identify with a protagonist of the same gender. Problem is most female protagonists in the gaming industry aren't crafted with the female audience in mind. Generally both male and female protagonists are crafted by young white America males, for young white America males.

[Vainamoinen]

Thats why some girls should not play videogames. True gamers always compares themselves with an main hero, its like another life behind the monitor's screen.

??!????!??? Because girls are so known to not immerse themselves and feel with fictional characters ??!????!??

[Emmerd]

Thats why some girls should not play videogames. True gamers always compares themselves with an main hero, its like another life behind the monitor's screen.

I just didn't cry because I knew it was a game and I had enough messed up shit in real life to care. Of course I had emotions, but not strong enough to shed tears xD.
Not because I'm not a 'true gamer' bro.

Are you living in 1900 or something like that?

[Emmerd]

I've been playing from the start and I got my hands on the last episode as soon as it came out.. But I just knew that Lee was going to die at the end.. It was a bit predictable.. So maybe I was prepared for it?

[TheNNerdGamer]

have you ever seen a kid cry and you start feeling sad; that's why I cried

[Siniistar]

have you ever seen a kid cry and you start feeling sad; that's why I cried


exactly. Lee's death wasn't sad in the least bit because it was obvious since the middle of the espisode that he was going to die.


but seeing Clem break down like that...the feels :(

[anonymau5]

I went through the games as they were released and waited for all of them to come out. I'm beginning to suspect that I'm a robot, because I never cry at things that makes everyone else cry.

[thestalkinghead]

i cried because i knew Clementine wouldn't be safe before Lee died and because Clementine was so sad.

Of course this is because i was able to be in the moment and ignore the part of my brain that says "they aren't real people" so i was able to empathise with Lee and Clementine

[tatersalad74]

I, like a lot of people cried. Never thought a video game would make me emotional, but this one did. I think it was because I can understand what a child of that age might be thinking and going through. My daughter is the same age and the last episode was tough to get through. It was very easy to put myself in Lee's shoes and think what I thought was best for Clem.

Thanks to the writers and all of the people who had anything to do with this game. Very well done. Looking forward to season 2.

[HelloCthulhu]

I went through the games as they were released and waited for all of them to come out. I'm beginning to suspect that I'm a robot, because I never cry at things that makes everyone else cry.

I can kind of relate to this because well... I don't cry at video games either. I cried at the stage performance of Les Miserables that I watched on Broadway, but not at this. I think its because despite how well done the comic feel is in the games, it is still only pixels and the crying looked fake to me. With Les Mis, it was the song when Jean Valjean pleads to god to take him instead of his daughter that got me in the feels.

First time in my short 3 years of gaming experiences that I have cried, most games make me upset but I've not really ever cried because they haven't designed the end of the game properly, but TTG did it just right and I'm not ashamed to say I cried, in fact I was still upset a couple of days after. I think that when Clem was begging Lee to get up because the door was just there and he was too weak and little Clemmy was begging and begging I thought it was going to be cheesy but it did make me cry and I'm not ashamed to say it.

I was sad and depressed but I couldn't cry. It's really hard for me to cry, considering this is possibly one of ( if not the ) the games I've been most connected with.

I think it's safe to say that the people who didn't cry are dysfunctional.

[dukeleto]

Yes, I did.
But honestly, I felt worse when Lee covered Clem with that -stuff- than the ending itself. We all knew that the ending will come by one way or another but that scene at the marsh House was a sad moment to me that I can never forget. Knowing Clem will be broken when she finds out the fact about Lee's bite was a heavy burden and while doing that stinky job, I was emotionally wrecked. Because that little girl was still in some kind of hope as they will both be together and they'll continue trying to survive.
I started crying and it was so sad...

I was really sad when I buried the kid and through most of episode 3 (after the suicide), but I didn't cry during any part of the game. It pretty much takes John Lasseter to get tears out of me.

Oh, well at least I have the moral authority of a person named strangely close to a pokemon to guide me.

[RickRymes97]

Why would I cry ? It wasn't sad at all.

[Myorderedconfusion]

Yeah I teared up a bit when Lee told clem she was smarter than all of them.

[Hudomonkey]

Just Clem's voice at the end after you collapsed

It really hurt

[Arbitrator]

I was teary eyed. Not full blown crying, but I easily could have.

[Mornai]

I rarely cry and this is no exception. Not because i'm too "manly" or heartless or anything, i just don't.

It was quite depressing and tore at my emotions of course, but i didn't cry(i definitely would have if i cried easily).

I did not cry during Episode 5. I cried during Episode 3.

Duck's death is for me, the saddest moment in the series. Lee's death I saw coming. I thought Duck was "safe" and if he did die, it would be in a fairly innocuous way. Instead they really ran him through the mill. Devestating. Telltale were such bastards putting the "Batman and Robin" detective sequence right before Duck's death, they did that purely to make us like Duck so we'd be gutpunched when he went ;)

(They did a similar thing with Carly - shortly before her death you can have a conversation where she implies she'll meet up with Lee for some hanky-panky later. This is to titillate you and make you predict a romance, so you'll be gutted when she gets shot in the head minutes later.)
