Season 2's character...
I know this season is not over and should maybe not jump the gun, but do you think we will play as someone from the current group or another random guy with all new characters? If you could skip ahead a few years ( I know they said they couldn't because they dont know where the walking dead universe would be then.) but if they found a way to. I think you should play as an older Clementine.
I know im obviously not the first to suggest it, but I think it would make the most sense. I feel like clem has seen all your actions and she takes that into how she would probably deal with things in the future. So in my opinion it would make sense since she got the way she handles things from lee. ( telltale stated they didn't want a main character where you had to learn a lot of their past from.)
My last opinion is I feel like they need to at least include characters from this season to make the other feel connected. OH AND ONE MORE....would someone please quickly chop Lee's arm off....HURRY...thanks.
What are your opinions? you don't have to agree with mine.

I am totally against playing a female in these type of games and I highly doubt it would be a wise marketing strategy as the huge majority of players are still male.
Sorry, not trying to be a downer but i'm pretty sure Ep5 will end with either Lee or Clem dieing depending what you do.
Either that or a whole new storyline from outbreak onwards
Anything else wouldn't really work.
Anyways naming it Season 2 seems to suggest a continuation of some sort.
Series 2 would have been more apt if it was to be a new group.
I have no idea why someone would think that's a good idea
or even want that...
The thing i realy would like to be in season 2 would be chosing ur gender it would probably be more interesting and they can have conversation differences, but it will take more production time and money to get the actor and ofc all of the lines, but if they maby make 1 episode not maby monthly i wouldnt see any problem in doing so.
That's... kind of offensive, you know. I'm not even sure what "some beast-women" is supposed to mean, but when you say, "I want to be the one saving people," is that supposed to imply that women are incapable of saving people? Because I think there are plenty of real-life examples to shoot down that theory.
As for the this marketing idea, (A) even if it's true that most of TWD's players are male, that's still not a terribly good reason to not have a female protagonist, and (B) Resident Evil, Silent Hill 3, Tomb Raider, The Longest Journey, Beyond Good & Evil, and Metroid all say hello. If having a guy hit on your PC really makes you that uncomfortable... well, don't save Doug.
As to the original question, I don't know. I'm not sure I can really see Clementine as the protagonist for Season 2. Not because she's a girl, but I think people want to play an adult character. And that would mean jumping so far ahead in the timeline that it could be kind of disorienting. Not to mention that you then run the risk of contradicting things that might happen in the comic later on.
Now that we more or less know that Lee's not going to survive, I suspect that any Season 2 would revolve around a whole new group of survivors. Then the question is, do we once again follow the new survivors from the beginning of the zombie apocalypse so we can see how those people adapt over time, or will we be picking up right where Season 1 leaves off?
Remember how the main character dies but you continue on as a new one? I would really, really, miss Lee but also think it would be pretty cool if halfway through the episode Lee turns or offs himself right before and for the rest of the episode you take control of Kenny. Game ends with Kenny and Clem sailing away into the sunset/sunrise. Season 2 you play as Clem 5-10 years later in a new group of survivors along with Kenny, but Kenny dies the first episode.
I only suggested it since everyone wants to play as a character from the current group. And clem is the only one with the background you know and would make the choices you made in season 1. If you played as kenny but you were a nice lee and saved everyone it just wouldn't work..
Like I said just wouldn't work imo. All of a sudden you're trying to save everyone you can when the kenny we all know leaves everyone behind.
We really don't know what can happen from the next episode onwards, or even that episode. People change, especially in stressful situations. Perhaps Lee's death will have a personality change in Kenny, helping him to shed that selfish tendency.
In all actuality Kenny's selfishness stems from his mission-orientation. Get to the boat at all costs. As a sort of way to honor his fallen family, in some sort of way. His motivation while they were alive, was simply to keep them alive at all costs. This could translate to an interest in the remaining group.
I don't like Kenny but I would rather play as him instead of someone completely new. I don't want the new guy having to learn everything about the virus again. Would rather have someone who knows how bad it is and not some new guy that in his mind would be saying "were all gonna make it , we can all do it."
Dear God, I hope it's not Kenny. Actually, I'm still holding out hope that Kenny will end up as zombie chow in Ep. 5. The jerk. If he were the protagonist in Season 2, in order to stay true to the character, all of the dialogue options would have to involve him leaving his friends hanging and then yelling at people about not getting any respect for making the hard choice of leaving his friends hanging. The only character from the whole series I would be less interested in seeing as a protagonist would be Lilly.
If it's not going to be Clem or Molly, I'd really prefer that they just give us someone new for Season 2.
I would LOVE to play as an older Clem. Nothing wrong with female protagonists as long as you do them right (in fact, being female myself, I'd appreciate this a lot). But if the "canon" series has only gone 3 years then I don't see it happening unless they turn the game into an AU. Which...I would be okay with, actually.
Kenny can turn a new leaf in the final episode, and in Season two you can continue to try to be a better person, or fall back into old patterns of selfishness and survival over others.
But in all seriousness, they seem to be setting up either Omid and Christa, or those cancer survivors as being Clem's next caretakers. I mean, that's assuming that they don't do something completely insane like bring back her parents or kill her off.
i agree with u on not wanting to play as a female but i do think u were a little sexiest but i think that ur right on alot of the players are male but the best option is opicking ur gender or just male
The developers had said there was a character they are excited to introduce us to in Ep. 4 which was obviously Molly. Why say that if she's only sticking around for 1 episode?
They've fleshed her out and have given her too much back story and general competence to never return to the character again. Besides, regardless of your choice, we never see her die.
A playable Clem wouldn't work. Making decisions/choices as a child would be boring and too limiting, and an older Clem would require a shift in the story by several years, beyond the time line of the comic even which I doubt TellTale will be given the creative freedom to do.
Agreed. I think a new set of survivors and protagonist will be good.
Regardless as to whether or not Molly had a good back story it is impossible for her to be the protagonist of the next season as she can die in episode 4 should you leave Clemintine in the house and fail to save her from the walker (although if you look into the wiki on the walking dead it does state that it is unknown as to whether or not she survived the walkers grouping around her.
