Telltale Crossed The Line

[Red Panda]

Is there are anything TTG can do that will make you quit playing?

A lot of people said they're done after Carley was killed. We'll see. Is there anything they can do, of have done, that will have you calling it quits?

For me, if they kill Clem in episode 4 I would not buy episode 5. They would have killed off the last fuck I gave.

I would just move on after that. I wouldn't even be a little curious what happened next.

If they bring back Carley, I'm done.

Nah, I've bought everything from Telltale and loved pretty much all of it. I'm not really the sort to get outraged by a story's events. The more deaths the better. They'd have to do something uncharacteristically bad to change my mind, and I'd still finish the game. Then their next two releases would have to be abysmal to sour my favor, and I think Harrison Pink would have to shoot my mom or something.

And even then, I'd still come back for another Sam and Max season.

Ewok dance routine at the end.

Short of that.

Nah.

After episode 3, TWD is too bleak (for me). Not just the murders, but the suicide, deaths, and the team interactions. I came to the forums to see how other people responded to TWD and if they perceive TWD the same way. It seems like the consensus is that TWD is hopeless, and that's what people like about it. So, I think TTG is faithful to the TWD with episode 3, and there's no reason for me to get another season.

I'm not really interested in playing to find out when people die. Since I have the season, I'll give episode 4 a chance. Maybe episode 3 was just how the writers wanted to take the narrative to an emotional low point. But I don't think so. I think it will stay miserable, but now the choices will have no have emotional impact because it's obvious that the characters have no future.

So, I'm not looking for anything particular in episode 4, just whether episode 3 broke the immersion for me completely by revealing too much about how TWD works.

I still like Telltale, though. It's more that TWD is not for me; it's not an issue with Telltale.

No. They can kill off my Lee and I would still want to see how the series ends.

It looks like Cyreen and I actually agree on something That has been my biggest fear. With all the bring Carley back talk...blecch

[KCohere]

No way they are going to bring Carley back. I think being shot in the face and left there is a pretty definitive "she's not coming back". People just have to get used to the idea that she is gone. I liked Carley too but I dont desire to have her come back, or anyone else that we lost. We have to move on.

I think most people that talk about bringing Carley back ("Hur dur, carley shot in face, she alive hur dur") are trolling, seriously, you can't get so attached to a video-game character for so long after she's dead already.

But if they brought Carley back (which is very, very unlikely), I would stop playing as well.

And well, if Clementine died... I would still buy season 2, even if she died on the last episode.

If Ben and Kenny survive Episode 5...

Other than that, it's cool i guess

To me, there are no lines. This is their game, they can go wherever they want with it. I'm just here for the ride.

Nothing they do is going to make me refuse to finish it.

Nope. I've had a blast playing this game and just love the story. It was fun to play even when it was just Lee at the beginning of e1.

I know people are upset over the loss of characters they really liked but we are only three episodes into Lee's story. Think about it for a moment. There are plenty of stories worth telling from that hour when the first walker reanimated. TTG picked Lee's story to tell just like Kirkman picked Rick's story. I think the best is yet to come.

Whether it's too painful to make friends anymore is up to you. People we like are going to die. Maybe we can choose what Lee says from time to time or figure out a puzzle but that's about the limit of our control and Lee's control of this world and the people in it.

It could be worse, at least e4 and e5 and season 2 don't have us at a farm looking for a missing girl.

This. I'm seeing it until the end despite my favorite character ever dying, and half of the characters I like being dead. They know what they're doing, and should keep on with their story as they originally planned to. If they decide to bring Carley back or not, they should do it because it was part of what they planned, not according to what people want. There will always be someone who will love TWD no matter what. I'll play it until the end. I mean, why not finish what you've started? And I still love TWD and find episode 3 to be great along with the rest.

When it comes to story reasons, if Telltale made it nice. No one deserves "plot armor" not even Lee and Clem deserve it, same with Rick and Carl.

[Vainamoinen]

I wonder why the comics do not give rise to such protests. Kirkman has been doing the exact same thing for a fucking decade now. Children killed, babies and mothers killed, suicides, prolonged rape, massive torture. I can absolutely understand why people would call it quits with Clementine's death - and I probably personally would as well - yet why is Kirkman "allowed" to and even praised for breaking those taboos while Telltale is continuously bashed for it? Is that some kind of double standard for the Walking Dead fans?

Of course they'll cross the line. The original comics series has crossed so many, it's hard to even think of another line it could cross!
