Yeah. We both looked at the marble statue at the same time but I was faster!

That sucked having to see Kenny again after telling him to go fuck himself. Still, I did get a chance to try and kill him and called him a bastard so it was not a total loss.

For the others, you came to the wrong thread to look for sympathy for Kenny. That asshole is responsible for getting us all killed. He even told me that every night Kat gave him shit for being such a dick. Lilly was right again...we can't let one person fuck this up for everyone!

I dunno, the way my game played out - I can't hate him anymore.

Hai guys

Yeah, my playthrough gave me some serious sympathy for Kenny.

I was never particularly mad with Kenny so much as I felt he was coded very terribly. I usually sided with him because, a lot of the time, he was just straight up right. When he was being irrational or shortsighted I disagreed with him; this brings up the issue that for every Kenny Point you gain by having his back, you lose five billion for disagreeing with him in even the most minor of ways.

It was really frustrating, building up a friendship with Kenny and then having the gentle house of cards that is his friendship meter come tumbling down because I forgot to say "bless you" after he sneezed.

Seriously.

You know I never liked the guy. Because of his neverlasting needs and because he complained about anything after all the things I've done for him.

But I MUST give him his right, and I must admit maybe he might not be that bad at all. NOT BECAUSE he did something which needs to be done by courage but because he did THAT without knowing all the reason for bad happenings are because of himself. If he knew whole story(who the "stranger" is and why he is doing these) and then went for it, it was meaningless to me. But without knowing the whole truth, I guess he at last could manage to make one thing right in his pathetic life.

By the way, congrats to Wrighty and thestalkinghead
Sorry, but I still don't like him because he led us to our ending, but I admire him most with his last but meaningles suicidal attempt. (For your information, I was always kind to him, I even didn't threw him the statue)
One way or another, it was a great story which became more dramatic with Kenny. He played his role well, he doomed us, and that's all. Nonetheless, for one time, for all good, everyone, let's say:
F.ck Kenny!
(I really don't know what I'm thinking about this guy. Both admire and hatred so much for me. Something like love? I'm scared. :P)

Okay?

But this doesn't change the fact that everybodies life in this game screwed because of him not only by one time but more. I was blaming him for Larry, and now this? These are to much for me to sympathy for him. I just pity for him for his mistakes, and I'll always remember him with his debts, failures, and with his bad temper which made him look worse than he is in real.

[Ninnuendo]

I see no reason to have sympathy for him. There's a moment when he realises what a prick he's been to Ben but he's soon back to himself, threatening Lee and thinking about smashing your head in with a bust. When he told me to leave I did it without a second thought.

[rachellouise85]

can he still hate you at that point (in the loft/attic)? In mine, on the sofa Kenny pretty much says he's over it now. Even though he did spend quite some time hating Lee.

I guess it is fair to judge him with his existance during the journey. I mean, he had a very strong role in this story which made him unforgettable.
I don't blame him for what he has done anymore, as he is a virtual character. But I accepted his existance as a MUST. "He is like this, he is like that.." well well, everybody has their own point on him. But the constant fact is he stood on where he should stand , he played his role well(to me, as a trouble magnet).
I think, Telltale deliberately made him sacrifice himself as they were already knowing Kenny must pay his debts.

Come here, sit and feel free to have a drink, besides it is the best thing you can do during Z apocalypse :P

LOL.

So much this.

When he sacrificed himself for Ben in my game I was kind of torn between bemusement and sadness. Sadness because he was the last of the original group to die besides Clementine and Lee but bemusement because he is such a giant ass hypocrite. He hates Ben the whole game and then he hates on his wife for killing herself and all he cares about is pragmatism like getting a boat or killing Larry because he might be infected and then all of a sudden he's like SUICIDE CHARGE INTO A MILLION ZOMBIES EVEN THOUGH BENS ALREADY DEAD BECAUSE I ALSO WANT TO DIE BUT IT'S TOTALLY NOT SUICIDE BECAUSE I HATE SUICIDE...

Part of me really wanted to grab that gun off Kenny and shoot Ben and then proceed to beat him to death with it... The zombies took my satisfaction away...

[Viser]

Eh, gotta give props to that guy. My slight dislike for the way he is turned into indifference and a bit of admiration because of what he did for Ben, my favorite character. He finally decided to show me his good side, and we were kinda starting to get along after I apologized for losing my temper with him in the attic. Too bad he didn't show me that earlier, I spent most of the game on his bad side...

And I don't know about you guys, but I'm kinda getting sick of every single person we meet dying or disappearing in the game. I know it's TWD, and it's that idea of no one being safe that drew me into reading the comics in the first place, but I think that since it's a game and we get more emotionally invested because we're actually interacting with the characters, I believe that in season 2 it's gonna be a lot harder to get attached to any character we meet after every single person (not including Clemmy) we cared about in season 1 either died or had an unknown fate. Not being able to get attached to anyone would kinda suck D:

But don't mind me, watching the characters I cared about constantly dying just got me a bit frustrated at TWD in general.

[Josec]

I was totally p*ssed with Kenny, after saving his son, feeding him, supporting Kenny and his family for long, just because I didn't killed Larry with him, he holded a grudge against me and left me to death twice. I even told him to "f*ck off" in episode 4, although I replayed it later to bring him to die in episode 5.
He becomes better in episode 5 if we can bring him along us, which is still possible if we have sided with his family, although not with him for the whole game.
In the end, my opinion about him is more or less the same he has about me: I don't like him but I recognize he stood for some moral principles when helping finding Clementine, at least. Definetively not my hero but I'm not so p*ssed with him after episode 5. Took him some time to become a team player but he ends as one.

Epic agree.

He could have, should have survived. He didn't have to take as much time putting down Ben before following Lee up the ladder.

He pissed me off severely but I still feel that his dead was pretty much needless.

Maybe he just couldn't take anymore... I mean, Ben.
He mistreated him for all that time, and so maybe Kenny couldn't stand the idea of killing him and just then going on...
Maybe he just got tired of their desperate survival. He ventured even being a big disappointment to Lee, and he let it go. Maybe, in the end he came to a conclusion like "Nah, he is already dead in any case" or after thinking of Lee's condition...He just couldn't. Who knows why?
The thing is he completely gave up.

[HiggsBoson2142]

It's funny seeing everyone saying "Kenny's a bastard!" one minute and then "Kenny's such a hero!" the next.

He completely gave up, in my opinion.

He gave up a long time before this moment, if we're being honest. If you don't understand why he was the way he was, you don't understand simple human emotion; his wife killed herself, his only friend had to kill his son because he couldn't do it himself (in my playthrough, at least). After their deaths, he pursued the dream resolution of a magical boat that would see them all safely into paradise with an obsession bordering on delusion. Truth be told, Kenny died with his son and his wife in the Georgian countryside.

Also I am really shocked and impressed that a video game is so deep and complex and rich that I can actually say things like that about one of the characters. God I love TTG.

I don't think anyone up there is saying, "He is such a hero."
People who doesn't like Kenny -like me- is about a confession that Kenny wouldn't be that bad. Some admiration for him and that's all.
Please understand this now. I EVEN didn't throw that statue at him, and I managed him to understand his fault on Ben with my choices.
It was not Kenny, who was all good by himself. But it was LeeMe.

Same here.
