Is Lee's death/zombification inevitable?

[MaddogIsBoss]

i would just like to see lee live some how, forget all that crap on how it wouldn't be realistic or true to the comic i just hope they do it in some way that isn't like "i say that coming" sort of way like it was a dream he was having when he fell asleep and it ends with lee, clem and all the people u let on the boat riding off into the river because if it ends with lee just dieing then what was the point in having kenny and the whole group risking their lives for getting suppiles for the boat and omid. which brings to another question maybe season 2 is with the same characters traveling west because going to crawford would have been for nothing if lee just dies trying or after he saves clem

Alot of us saw this coming around Episode 1.. Sure it was all just a guess then how the season would end, so I'm not surprised at all.. It's just that the way the scene was done, leaves it open for speculation!

If TT had made it a close-up of the walker ripping away a huge chunk of Lee's wrist and he yelled, we wouldnt be having this discussion!

[AceStarr]

He can survive but there is only two options

1) Chop off his arm and hope he survives the shock of it

2) Somebody has a cure


#2 Is highly unlikely


#1 is more believeble and possible an it also can get him to season 2 atleast for the first episode of it cause like i said he has to battle the shock and fever that comes with choping off his arm.

I just don't have words for this. The cliffhanger was just way too awesome! Everything happened in such a short time, I can't even explain the way this made me feel, specially after everyone chose to go with me. Anyway, overall, the episode was really well made, I really liked the fact that we had a timer for nearly all the dialog options, we sometimes could just choose two of the three available options, which made me love the timer-stress even more! Now, talking about the story, telltale said we'd hate them if they did they job properly... I'm going to stab everyone at telltale...

I mean in this game have we ever seen anyone take a wound from a Zombie and not die, or take a scratch or anything of that nature and not die outright?

Usually when one take the first bite they get dragged down or pulled and that's end of story.

I don't think Lee is gonna die. Or...he might and then when he dies Clem is finally reunited with her mother and it is is Clem who has to put a bullet in his head.

Oh...how..dramatic!

well crawford is done so its probable that her mother is dead

[miguelr23]

why tt let us know that lee was bitten on the end of 4 episode?we can see the end of ep 5 already(saving clem and get headshotted by her or suicide);he may be imune to the bite infection but anyway if is going to die by the bite they only should showed at ep 5

[CapnJay]

Lee is going to die. whether it's on screen or not is the only question

[LokiHavok]

Perhaps Lee will search. But the likelihood of her parents being alive is like slim-to-none. And the chances that they're Walkers is almost certain, we forget that Walkers are nomadic eating machines.

They're just not likely in Savannah anymore, given the horde dynamic...

[Finnisher]

If Lee were to survive, he would need Vernon very fast.

[FarmerJoe]

The only problem I have with Lee dying is that it it makes any kind of dilemma that could of come up if he had found one or both of Clem's parents alive irrelevant.
It would of been a no brainer for me but I would of been interested to see how many players would do a "Jolene" and tried to have kept Clem to themselves.

Now it's not even a choice because Lee has no hope for any kind of a future.

Lots of people said they expected Lee to die... I hoped they wouldn't kill him off. The player character is the only character I'd have really wanted to not see dead.

I wouldn't consider it unlikely that Clem gets bitten too. It would be So TWD (imo).

[JabbaDaHuttX7]

By the way, since we didn't actually get to see the real Crawford... I think the guy on the walkie talkie actually might belong to Crawford.

Wow, I never actually stopped a second to think about it, perhaps the walker guy is Crawford's leader itself! You just gave me a whole new point of view. The next question, WHAT does this guy WANT from Lee?

Pretty sure the leader of Crawford was hanging on a noose at the top of the armoury, under the bell, already zombified. His hair seems to match with the hair on the man in the photos lying around pasted on the walls of the school that have the words 'supreme leader' writen on them or something.

Also, what do you guys mean by 'the real Crawford'? As far as I know there was only one Crawford and everyone in it died and turned into a walker.

Chopping off his arm would only work if he did it extremely quickly after being bitten. By the time they reach the nuclear bunker, it's far too late for that to do any good.

[ommmnomnomnom]

I hope it isnt a staring into the sunset/sunrise death, that will be so weak...

Or the blow myself up to save everyone ending...

Or anykind of dream (unless lee is alive) :P

So now Lee has only Clem to Lose. That makes him a VERY Dangerous man

I just don't want him to die because he seems like the only one who can take care of Clementine and it would seem weird for someone like Kenny to do it. Unless her parents are alive, which I doubt.

Also, how come he wasn't already feeling ill after the bite? Duck started feeling down right after they left the motor inn on the RV while Lee was able to talk normally and make the trip to the morgue to find Clementine.

So yeah, is he hopeless or is there a slim chance the devs will defile the lore and get him cured?

Honestly, since they've never seen anyone survive a bite, it probably wouldn't occur to Lee that chopping off his hand would help in any way.
