What do you want via the end of the game?

I know it's WAY too early to think about but one small part had me thinking about it.... Clem thinks that Lee would be a good daddy. And Lee (may) want to be one.

Do you want him to only have Clem? To have more with Clem being the biog sister type?

Or maybe darker? Like a hero's death for our valiant man?

I think/hope we can get a season 2 but this is obviously going to be super hypothetical at this point!

Personally, I'm hoping that he 'adopts' Clem after they find her zombified parents. (They 'may show up later'). There will be no happily ever after but I could see finding someone to connect with. I still think that Carley could 'get with' Lee and things could happen although what that would mean for a Doug playthrough would be completely different and I doubt we'd get THAT big of a leap forward. But it's just my own personal hopes (at the moment. Could change after Ep. 3!)

Any thoughts on an early predication/desire/hope?

    If they find the parents I would just stop playing.

    The Walking Dead is better that way to keep your mind wondering and making new stories and theories. If they found the zombified parents it wouldn't feel emotional to me but it would feel stupid.

    The dad is dead i like to believe Clems mom found a foster daughter and Lee raises Clem

    I think in the end Lee is going to die saving Clem, at least that's what I hope my Lee would do. Make the ultimate sacrifice for her

    I hope for the citrus child to turn, and i get another button sequence of struggling with her, and then Duck falcon punches her into nopesville

    Puhlease Duck has a crush on Queen Clem if your gonna hate you shouldnt praise someone then say you hate their friend. or Termaducker might put you under a tractor

    What I would like is Lee taking care of Clem. But I think what's really going to happen is that Lee dies and Clem survives.

    Well, besides all the variations caused by your choices, I guess you'll have something like " Save your ass" and " Save Clementine".

    Actually, if they made " Save Clementine" the canonic choice, they could make a Season 2 where we play as her, but older. And to avoid any plot hole( cuz the comics, y'know), they could say something like " Some years later, the group gotta seperated and Clementine's decided to try her lucky in X place". If their parents don't appear later in the game, could be where they were.

    Eeeh? How 'bout that, uh? Would be cool! :D

    I think it's highly unlikely that they EVER find out anything regarding Clems parents. they are probably dead and it's not really smart to check on each walker you encounter. If there is some information about Clems parents or they even appear in the game, I would not like that. It would be pure coincidence and utterly unbelievable.

    But yes, Lee will probably have to choose to either take care of Clementine or giving her to a nice couple they meet in Episode 5. I personally would fancy it, if Lee and Carley would couple up and take care of Clem. But sadly Carley will most likely die in the next episode (but I sure hope not).
  • edited June 2012
    Ugh. I hope Carley doesn't die. She seems to be the only person that fully trusts Lee other then Clem!

    I just remember reading somewhere that we may not have heard the end of Clem's parents. Maybe they can meet her mom though... The father was bitten but the mother was just scared/alone... not dead!

    When we meet Clems mother shall the speakers start playing "It's a Small World after all"?
  • edited June 2012
    Isn't she in Savannah? (I think that's right. It's late and I don't wanna look it up <.<)

    That is right off the coast though, depending on the route the take to get there. I didn't say it would happen! :| Just that it would be interesting!

    alot of things could happen but would it be best for lee. the game could end with clementine choosing between her mom and woodbury or ricks group [is there another group?] or lee and possibly kennys boat
  • edited June 2012
    I personally would really like to see Lee live at the end with Clem (or at least have it be an option). I personally am kind of sick of the "the hero needs to die" crud everyone proclaims. Hey, some of the greatest films, games and stories of all time have the hero live at the end. Just because something is dark in tone does not mean it has to completely have a bleak ending. I think the way I have been playing my story should allow for me to have an ending where even if it is not happily ever after, Lee and Clem can still watch after each other and survive.

    That said, I also hope there is an actual resolution. I do not want any of the whole Mass Effect-like "make up your own ending" or the also potentially lame "It will forever be a mystery" endings. Even if not every thread or mystery is resolved, there needs to be proper closure. I seriously cannot see the team continuing Lee and Clementine's story past this season (unless there are some very intriguing story ideas I am not aware of), so give us a satisfying resolution at least.

    Nobody should ever use The professional as an example of hero dying for a kid because Mathilda is NOT Clementine.... I know noones mentioned it but just preparing

    Eh? You're talking about the comics, I guess? Like they should do it first in the comics? I am a little confused 'bout what you just said, man. :confused:

    Uhmm, maybe. I don't know... I mean, unless they think that we still think that this zombie problem can be fixed, I highly doubt it... And if are you saying this because of the plot holes, well, this is why I suggested being in another place. Like, I don't know, Mexico? An adult and experienced Clementine could go there.

    what im saying is basically Consider the universes interchangeable. if Queen Clems Adventures in the year 2025 and Ricks adventures is in 2012 then there would be problem with how everything fits even if some of the pieces are hammered into place the puzzle is still whole two incredibly diffrent timelines wouldnt work unless Kirkman included a series of TWD that took place in the same time ad Queen Clems 2025 adventures.

    Does that make more sense?

    I understand where you are going, Buuuuut just for the fun it it, you might wanna change the whole "Rick's adventures is in 2012" thing.... Kirkman has said that the comic is in a unnamed time so that we will be able to relate to it 5-10 years from now...

    I will try to find the quote if you want me to

    My guess is your long term treatment of clem and your morals as lee.

    will be expressed when we see a teenager/adult clem in the final epilouge and what kind of person she grows into will be due to your influence. sort of similar to your influence in elanor is bioshock 2
  • edited June 2012
    I'd want Lee to find a safe place with the group and maybe make an appearance in The Walking Dead show in series 4 maybe

    or in the comics

    QFT

    After playing ME3 and the first screwed up endings, never underestimate the need for an epilogue and to see how your choices affect others.
  • edited June 2012
    I'd like to think Lee, Clem and at least a few other survivors will find a safe and sustainable place to call home and settle down to wait for day when the world will be free of the walkers.
  • edited July 2012
    I think that a I am Legend like ending would be pretty good. At least something where all the zombies are gone, and the group is safe(Whatever's left of them).
  • edited July 2012
    some kind of happy end would be nice...

    well "happy" like lee and clem (maybe carley, like her somehow) not dying and not in an desperate "were dying anyway" situation... everything else up to the story writers!

    thats all id like to ask for... please ;)

    Ooooh, now I get it.
    But, I don't know, even if she is in Mexico? It's not like the Zombie Apocalypse will end or something. I guess.

    Ooof course it's not like Telltale will do what I suggested. We are hardly going to have a Second Season, and if we have, it's probaly going to be other character.
  • edited July 2012
    I'm such a sucker for happy endings (interpret it as you wish)

    But based on just the picture for the last episode, it looks like everyone might die and it will just be Lee and Clem, and even then Lee might die protecting Clem or something

    Maybe Clem ends up a walker at the end?
  • edited July 2012
    Yeah I too think that Lee is going to end up dying to save Clem.

    And Clem will grow up to the the main character of season 2.
