Clem's death - Anyone see this?
Yet again, i'm playing through ep 3 trying to look for spoilers. In the train station when Lee boosts Clem over the fence she is trapped with a walker. Lee's gun skids under the door for Clem to get a hold of. She freezes up and doesn't help Lee kill the walkers after him.
As an experiment I went back and looked to see if she got me the keys and if I didn't open the door, if she would shoot the walker coming after her. The walker takes about 20 seconds to get to her so I just waited. Lone behold she did nothing and is overtaken by the walker.
Anyway I frapsed it to see what she would do, and the outcome broke my heart. I can post vid if anyone wants.

I told her to learn to just pull the trigger. There is never gonna be a way to get anyone to stop fearing the dead. IMO
Not a nice clip....

killing one might help, but it could just make it totally worse, its hard to tell
What the hell...In situations like these, Lee is ALWAYS supposed to die. Not someone else...
Ironically, at the end it says You are Dead.
Glad I didn't wait to see if she would kill the thing.
It's kinda hard to see but it looks like when he sticks his arm through the bars the zombie grabbed hold of his hand/arm. Either way Clementine dying would be a major change in story arc, especially if it had happened in Act 3 considering majority of the characters we grew to know ended up dying or being exiled. Any game has it's limits, if Clementine had died at this stage two major story arcs would be non-existent in the third episode, the mysterious stranger, and the possibility of her parents (or mother) being alive.
I told her when Duck was being taken care of that 'that will never happen to her' and I mean it.
I shan't allow it.
Guys I just realised, if we keep bumping this thread we're going to scare the pants off of someone who came onto the forum recently, because they would just see "Clem's Death" in the spoiler forum.
Zombie on ya?
Stop! Hammer Time!
I expected her to take to a gun as a Duck does to... well.... hmm... food?

Nightmare fuel.
Plot armor. Why is the 'game over' when Lee didnt die?
Because that would mean your actions actually mattered. And they had to write a different branch of story not involving clementine anymore.
So instead, anything that would naturally cause a different result than forced ends in a "You Are Dead"-Screen.
The directness of your answer is refreshing.
I'll hang around and wait for the more common replies of 'How can u lief without Clem!!!111'
Maybe because the objective of the game is more than just survival?
In a ZA?
Illogical
So there's reasons to add more choices and reasons to remove choices. I, for one, think that in episode 5, Clem should be able to die. I want multiple endings where Clem lives or dies by your choices. Episode 3 (and even 4) are too soon for that.
Either way, perhaps a 'Game Over' screen would have been more appropriate rather than the 'You Are Dead" screen.
No offence to Clementine.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks this way.
clem being young has more potential to the above better and of course she could be part of the 'cure'
children are the future...
So it wasn't just me then
It reminded me of a nature documentary which showed chimps hunting small monkeys. Clem's screams sounded eerily familiar to the noises that were made as they ripped apart the little monkeys.
it seemed to me the woman who does clem was doing it, must of took some practise lol
I sat in a corner while hugging my legs for a while.
