So Now That We Know Season 2 is Happening...
...would anyone like to see a sort of "flashback" episode that details some of the events that occurred between episodes 1 and 2?
Just writing this, I realise that this kind of episode would not be able to contain any major choices that would affect the story. As a compromise though, I could see a more action, stealth and puzzle gameplay coming from such an episode, with the choices being whether to be more guns blazing or more stealth oriented (and having the episode, change depending on this, but not have anything else affected by it).
I propose this because I think some of the events that occurred would be interesting to experience, like investigating the Air Base and meeting Mark, etc.
Anyone like the sound of this?

Would much rather see a continuation or a whole new group of survivors if possible. Maybe a new location?
That's true what you say though. I would take away from the experience a bit, knowing who'll be making it out. But it would be a chance to further develop characters that die early in the series, and provide a different focus for the game (action/stealth/more puzzles, but note that I wouldn't want any of the core mechanics to change).
You make a fair point though, but know who lives doesn't mean it wouldn't be interesting.
My vote for season 2 is a continuation with Lee and Clem.
It was just a time gap that has advanced the timeline of the story, the characters have now spent 3 months with each other, the zombie appocalypse has advanced and is now completely widespread (in episode 1 it was just a few days old), food is running out etc, it basically stops us playing the entire game within a few day period at the very start of the outbreak.
This. I feel the need for Lee and Clem to return for the second season rather then introduce a totally new group of survivors. Let's make this really "season 2", shall we?
Well, I guess my idea hasn't been too well received. That's okay though, just thought I'd put it out there. I liked Mark and would have enjoyed seeing more of him.
Mark was a good character. I actually gave him food the first time around. He would benefit the group greatly if he had survived(He did save you from Brenda).
Maybe the relationship between Lee and Clem will go "neutral" in preparation for the second season.
but then that's hardly "your" clem and lee then.
That way, they can save a few key decisions/stats from the first season (like your allegiance with a few key characters, your standing with Clementine, who is alive, and maybe a couple others that we can't possibly know this early), and go from there.
Season 2 could move to a new setting and feature a largely different cast (retaining perhaps only Doug/Carley and/or some other survivors you pick up later). It could work, I think.
I am setting my hopes on season 2 to feature Clem in her late teens, Lee will be dead by the end of episode 5, as the final hard choice will be him or Clem, and I know for sure where my priorities lie. She will be living in a world that has settled into its new state for a while now, having different kinds of settlements throughout. She is a hardened girl with a gentle touch and always carrying a bit of Lee inside her. We bring her up partly, and she'll make us proud in season 2.
that would be great!
