Someone confront TellTale about this. If they admit they're placeholders, then we're cool. If they don't respond or they don't denounce these two figures, then we're playing as them.

If I have to play as either of those motherfuckers in season 2 I'm going to cry.

Remember when everybody called Chuck a pedophile-in-waiting just because he was an older man who shared candy? Yeeaahh. Hopefully if this ISN'T a hoax Telltale will further show that you shouldn't always judge a book by its cover.

I don't remember anyone calling Chuck a pedophile. I remember people liking him and being majorly pissed when he died. Some people might have, but saying everyone did is an exaggeration.

These dudes, though. They look like pedophiles.

I believe so as well. Leaving their fate ambiguous, the way one of them is tall and thin (Christa) whilst one is shorter, trailing behind and a little chunkier (Omid) and how Christa believes going into the country is the best idea, but also how they seem to stop as soon as they spot Clem (a child sized figure) in the distance.

Those guys do a look a little creepy, but imagine seeing Kenny and Doug like that before S1 came out. A lot of people wouldn't like the look of them and they both ended up playing a big part in the first season (depending on how you play). Lee is another example. It has nothing to do with his appearance, but a history professor in his late-30s who busts up his leg a few minutes into the game doesn't sound like a lead character in a zombie game, and he was an excellent character.

Didn't know that pedophiles have a certain look about them... :sigh:

It's funny how people retort to stuff such as pedophile as soon as a new male character is brought into the scene.No-one said that Lily or Carley are possibly pedophiles and rescued Lee and group infront of the drugstore just to get their hands on Duck.

"How pedophiles look like: like a pedophile."
Screw logic anyway...

Of course it is. If we gonna play one of those characters, the most people here will do not like it because of a few reasons, for example:

- They seem to be not very good looking. Neither Rick nor Lee were unattractive!
- They are not Lee!
- They are seemingly no badasses!

They were deliberately genericized figures so that someone couldn't rip the 3D assets and definitively declare "IT WAS [X CHARACTERS] AFTER ALL!"

We knew people would do 3D screen dumps and zoom in, and we wanted that to be left a mystery even if people try to cheat. If you look at it with textures and lighting turned on, they are painted completely black, too, with no facial features or anything.

I feel like you have to think about this like a really wide shot in a film that was shot by the second unit team. You COULD zoom really close in to a 70mm film still and say "hey, that's not Tom Cruise, it was an extra!!" but what would the point of that be?

So, it could be ANYONE?

Given how much people are speculating, why would we want to answer definitively who it is now!

Does Telltale even have a definitive answer to who it is, or do they just leave it open to be able to determine the story later???
