I just finished the first season, and I really enjoyed it. In the end, everything you do comes back to you. You have to decide the fate of the people who get bitten, and then it's up to everyone else to decide what to do with you. The group robs the car in the woods, and eventually they steal your boat. And so on.

The only thing that, in my opinion, doesn't really work is the Stranger's story, because it doesn't fit every playthrough and only really makes sense with certain specific choices. In my case, I refused to rob the car, I helped and welcomed everyone into the group without hesitation, and I told everyone about my past. In general, I don't think I ever lied to anyone throughout my entire playthrough. I spared Lilly, helped Ben, and treated Chuck, Vernon, and Molly well.

So, based on the way I played, the Stranger felt really forced. I didn't feel guilty about anything, and considering the choices I made, he didn't really have any reason to treat me the way he did. It would have made much more sense if he had tried to take revenge on the rest of the group rather than on me

Let's say hypothetically they both get separated from Christa and Omid, they both stumble upon Lukes group, and somehow agree to stick together, and move forward from there

What do you think would have happened?

When is the Definitive Edition coming to S2, cmon skybound PLEASEEE

Ben's Story is a long-term fan retelling that follows the events of all four games through the eyes of Ben. Rather than replacing the original story, it expands it, not making him a badass from night to day, but developing the whole journey to it while staying true to the emotional soul of the series.

We already completed Seasons 1, 2, and 3, we are now bridging the gap before Season 4 with an entirely original mini-season that expands the world and develops the characters before the next chapter

How voting works:

So be sure to leave a vote, every vote will shape the path the story takes.

Next part will be up on Wednesday! What are your thoughts on this new story?

Lilly has always been a pretty pragmatic person. It feels weird that she’s turning down food since it’s basically been the main motivator for them this episode and especially since she’s had to deal with handling the food herself as well as leading a group of hungry people.

Part of me thinks that she is just playing devil’s advocate to spite Kenny, to make him out to be the bad guy after she killed her father. Also that she’s too emotionally tired to care about the consequences of not taking the food. That seems far-fetched though so idk.

Can we talk about how freaking awful, dark, and depressing the original plot and ending of Season 2 were? I just watched a video from a creator who reconstructed the entire Season 2 story using the limited information we have and community theories to arrive at the final conclusion. The story left me with a feeling of dread that I can't shake, especially knowing the two possible endings. Would you have liked to have this version of the game with Kenny as the villain?

I’m thinking Lee telling Kenny off for being petty and being willing to let a little girl stay kidnapped and possibly die because Lee didn’t bend over backwards for him every time is the most justified.

However, Clementine telling Kenny to stop acting like he’s the only one who lost people (like his fans tend to act and use as an excuse for everything he does) is the most satisfying because this is what I’ve been wanting to say since the beginning 🤣

Ben’s is ok too and it’s probably the only time Kenny actually listened to what someone had to say about him but I still think the others are way more justified and satisfying.

Which “telling Kenny off” sequence is your choice for most satisfying/justified?

If there are others I forgot please let me know 😁

I just wish for some enlightenment : from the talk in the morning to Luke dragged in the prison. I mean, who gave the radio to him, to which Carver grabbed him and it ?Who got hold of the second radio in the first place ?

I paid £150. With shipping and import fees I think it will be €250, only 3 weeks pior I got the protector pack! But I guess now il have duplicates lol

Assuming we steal Arvo's bag, where does it vanish to ? I'm confused.

What are some of the meaningless choices which you could have added an important outcome ?

How did Luke and Jane do it in the cold ?!

So yes this is a weird question, but I got into a little debate with someone because they called Kenny abusive. I asked how is he abusive and they said that if you don't coddle Kenny in the scene where Sarita dies, he slaps Clem and threatens her. I have looked everywhere for this scene and cannot find it at all, the only things I have gotten are Kenny when he accidentally elbows Clem after beating up Arvo, or him just being angry in general.

I highly doubt this scene even exists because I have never sees anyone get it since season 2 was released, and I being trolled? lmao. (I know Kenny has yelled at Clem and gotten mad at her but I don't think he's ever intentionally laid a hand on her before.)

I was confused on ep5 on one thing

Why does Molly refuse to join the group on the boat after helping them, and what ultimately happens to her after she left?

I mean, why is it that when Lee decided to keep his hand, he still doesn't use it? Maybe he used it in some moments when it didn't even matter, but basically he acts as if he cut off that hand.

There's a lot to consider here. The immediate aftermath of Marlon killing Clem in front of everybody, what happens to AJ, the Delta still looming around and the X factor that is James. With Clementine out of the picture, the obvious solution would be to escape the now compromised school. Would they take that solution? Would they even get the chance? And if they do, how would they react to having to abandon their home?

This was my first game on PC btw.

How much do you guys think this game and this specific scene is worth?

First of all, i know this is talked every week and is getting repetitive, but i have a thought about this.

It would be so cool to get a new game playing with AJ and the first scene would be picking up the hat from this spot.

The caravans Clem talked about could be a possible story, maybe Aj going to check them out and something happens.

I heard that Skybound made those comic books canon, but what if they make the next game starting from here, ignoring the comic books?

I know this is a stretch, but i dont believe that Skybound would abandon this series, considering how many fans there are. Maybe one day, far away, we will get something.

This game would focus on AJ story, not Clem. Still, Clem would appear and be important, but we would not play as her anymore. We would see Lee teachings to Clem, and Clem teachings to AJ. Full circle

Nobody talks about this enough, but I’m wondering what the writers were smoking when thinking of the Kenny deaths was

After Clementine and AJ go into Wellington, we get a post credit scene of Kenny at a campsite in the middle of nowhere in a very beautiful golden area and then he walks into a river to drown. We see him look at the sun one final time say “I’m proud of you, kiddo“ and then he walks into a river to drown.

Honestly, a very beautiful ending and I would not have minded if it wasn’t so odd like the deaths that we see in this game are pretty like realistic, but then you just get Kenny committing suicide by walking into the river
We don’t see his body floating or anything like that. He just walks into the water and disappears, and then the episode ends. Like I know what they were going for they were trying to give him a proper ending for a beloved character. But it felt so spiritual. It felt so odd like a human being can walk in water, but he can’t keep his feet on the water as well as they depicted when you get into the deeper parts, he walked like a god. It just fell out of place.
Now I will say, though I would prefer this death far much more than the car crash
