Well it's not literally adapted from the comic, the game is it's own original story that happens to be set in, or at least based on the comic universe/world/canon/whatever Telltale has even said that. And like I said the game has had some characters from the comic such as Glenn, Hershel and Lilly.

T-Dog is the most pointless character ever. He is a TV show only character by the way.=]

I like Rick in the show but I find him more interesting in the comic, cool nice guy who gets his life f**ked up in this f**ked up world.

Really if you like the show you should read the comic sometime. It's much better than the show.:whistle:

The guy's name is T-Dog. That alone makes everything else about him ridiculous.

I think the t.v. show portrays him pretty much the same way. Although this season looks like they're going to turn him into something of a monster. Hopefully they don't go overboard with him being a hardass since that's not who he's been this entire time.

I would. I'm even a little tempted to.

Yeah, you see the way Rick's character develops in the comic, it would make sense for him to be a hardass(but not full on a-hole) at the point the show is at. But the show has done different things for his character development, so who knows what the show will do with him.

The game is really more like the comic .I stopped reading it because too violent for me ...and i just read who died in episode 100 so I don't think i will pick up where i left.
The comics is better than the t.v show ...but the rule is almost everybody die in a pretty disgusting way , and the few left are f***** up beyond repair.
Again I kinda liked it , but an hundred episode of Humans are the worst monsters is way too much for my taste.

I heard there's gonna be a season 2 for the game , i like the idea of an almost interactive show , I may be in full masochist mode and go for it.

Played the game at a friend's place, prompted me to have my friend snag it while my PC is down (steam sale) and having just played the first two seasons at his place, I have to say I'm very impressed.

Consequences so far are lacking (though it's only episode 2), yet the actual impact from making these decisions and feeling rushed to do so? Damn, makes you regret what you do at times and creates a stronger flow.

Glad to see also see people's opinions of you shaped on your decisions and conversation choices rather than how super awesome you are.

Unsurprised to see people wish death on Kenny and his family while trying to claim the moral high ground, however. What the hell is with people saying "CAN'T WAIT TO KILL KENNY AND DUCK" but then turn around and say they can't stab the cannibals?

I think people only wish death on Duck, not because of any moral high ground but because people hate annoying kids.:?

With that said I don't really agree with the way Kenny does things(characters who act like him get killed off fast in the comic), but I understand why he does what he does. So no death wish on him from me, just hope he stops being a paranoid idiot.

Also I like Duck.=]

Oh my god, Duck is so annoying. I tried saving the farmer's son. Not only because he helped me, but because I thought it would get rid of that annoying kid.

It's something i saw on the official forum (i think) , people really hate Duck...
He's kinda dumb so I don't mind him too much for now...but i keep my eyes on him because in TWD universe, kids can turn into vicious little psycho.(It's actually nicer when they 're get eaten by a zombie...)

Kenny gets on my nerve , same with the other lady who wants to be boss...the problem with RPG is there's often no middle ground with characters.
And in this game , the characters hold onto little things and scream at you years later...

For now , both have grudges against my pc ...even if i tried to save their familly when I could.
Actually I really don't care if they got killed , they both smell like troubles.

Others in the group are nice , like Doug (i think it's his name) the guy with glasses (poor guy :s I liked him) , and the student seem ok.

He's mentally handicapped? That makes so much sense. Still annoying, but now he's annoying with an excuse.

Wait, what? Duck isn't mentally handicapped is he? He's just a normal annoying kid I thought.

Spoilers for my whole post pretty much......Are we really doing spoilers when I thought the general rule was no need for the latest material.  It would be one thing if this forum had spoiler tags, but....




I know exactly what you mean with people wanting to kill Kenny.  I think the hilarious thing too is that people don't even hate him as much so much about killing Larry as it is 'Hey.  He's being mean to me now, and he didn't immideately jump on the guy with the gun.  He's a coward AND an a**hole.'

Personally, I think both sides had their point, and Telltale games did a wonderful job putting him in a situation where trying to stop him would be much harder than normal.  Of course, we have the internet bada**es, 'We could have handled him' without stopping to think that even the stringbean band teacher zombie almost got Lee, and they had a gun and an axe at the time.  Dealing with a Larry zombie who's not only massive, but the only thing to smash his head is a giant cinderblock leads to a situation where he easily could have eaten everyone in there.

I'd also say another problem is we have no idea how fast people turn when they die.  Based on what I hear from the comics, it can be anywhere from less than a minute to hours.  It also doesn't help that we don't fully comprehend how 'dead' clinically or otherwise he has to be to turn.

Personally, I did what I felt I would have in real life.....I froze.  Kenny knocked me over saying I was useless and proceeded to do what he felt he had to.

I also get the feeling that a lot of people don't actually deal with kids a lot when they have to resort to calling Duck mentally challenged to say why Duck is so annoying.  I'll even go ahead and explain why I feel all of what happened happened.

Tractor:  Duck has never been on a farm before and probably figured it wasn't even on.  He may have even been thinking of it like pretending to drive when your parents let you pretend.  At this point, you may say its the farmers' fault for having the keys in, but that's fairly common for convienience, and most farmers teach their kids not to mess with things like tractors early on.  After that....there's Shaun who put him on the tractor in the first place.  As for that, yes.  It was a mistake to put Duck on the tractor, but obviously, he didn't even think about Duck accidentally turning something on and moving it since he's been there his whole life and something like that has never happened.  So in the end, I'd probably say Shaun's the most responsible, but I can see why he didn't think ahead about it.

Outside the drug store:  It looked like he froze or was backing up from the zombies he was seeing.  He got jumped from behind.  He's hardly the first person, child or adult, for that to happen to.

I was actually fine with him in episode 2 since he didn't end up messing anything up at least.  He got taken hostage, but so did Katjaa.

Basically, I like Duck and feel he's as well written as Clementine in that he's much more likely to be what a real kid is like.

I don't read the comics, but based on what I've played so far, I think one of the most important things needed to learn is to not hold grudges against people.  When people panic, they do stupid things.  When a life is at risk, people will get scared.  If you hold these types of things against people, you're just going to add more and more distrust and division between the group.

As for future episodes, yeah....either the group's going to divide or it's just going to get worse.  I can't see Lilly possibly try siding with Kenny or finding it very difficult to see things from his point of view when he just killed her dad.  That's just not something I see her getting over.

At least with Kenny, my issue with him is that all through episode 1 I had his back. Throughout most of episode 2 I had his back. Except when it came to the Larry choice. So not siding with him there leads him to just do nothing when the one brother attacks Lee when he says right before that he'll watch your back. He just sits there and watches as you struggle and Lilly has to save you and help out. Obviously Kenny's priority is his family, but that sudden shift felt too much to me, especially in that case where not helping Lee jeopardizes his ability to rescue his family.



Anyway, Gary Whitta, the writer for episode 4, posted this a little while ago on NeoGAF

I may be biased but I think if we do our jobs right we have moments  lined up for each of the remaining episodes that will make Larry's death seem like a pleasant dream by comparison. We'll see.

Hmm.. well it shouldn't be hard. I don 't think Larry's on anyones top 10 favorite people lists. Though, I'd still try to save his sorry butt.

Episode 3 not far from release.  WARNING spoilers in article and video.

I find it funny that he was punched collectively 1.5 million times. Wanker deserves it.

YES! YES!

And though it comes out tomorrow for me, it's good to see PSN get something early for once.

Without spoiling it, the second episode deals with an issue so old in games, that it shouldn't even get a response, but the delivery... Let's just say it'll leave you sick to your stomach.

Yes, true.  I think they take the cliches and make it gutwrenching because you do care about the characters.  They did a great job with Clementine, not making her scenes too syrupy.

It's so much better than the TV show.

It's better than the show because the game is set in the comic book universe.:whistle:


Ah, I thought the show had some great parts in it. I don't think the comic book would be able to top that for me.
