Episode 5 has to be really short then...

edited October 2012 in The Walking Dead
If Lee is bitten then he doesn't have much time, huh? I doubt it's going to be very long episode at all.

    Lee dies in chapter 5, rest of the episode you take control of Kenny. Make it happen Telltale!

    You can always meet back up with him before Lee dies.

    You'd be surprised how long some people can survive a bite. I mean Duck lasted the majority of episode 3 with a bite and his immune system is weaker. I think the record is dale in the comics IIRC.

    Yeah, but Duck was resting the whole time and Lee is kind of a Batman. No pun intended.

    It doesn't have to be really short, they pick up from where you left off and sense theres no specified time on when the bite would kill you they keep you moving in real time instead of skipping ahead or anything and it can be longer than EP4.

    True but then what was the point of that choice at the end? everyone would be together again real quickly.

    Trust me, tell tale knows what happends if they don't give a satisfying finale. But I have to say ( unless they amputate successfully ) that Lee's best time is an entire day.

    That's pretty much how long Jim lasted in the TV series.

    It depends on each person with how long they can survive once they've been bitten afaik.

    Strong adults can last quite a bit longer.

    If TTG botches this last episode I might not even bother with Season Two. The two month wait is just too long.
  • edited October 2012
    Lee's a pretty tough guy, and the bite wasn't that severe. I'm sure he can last a while before turning.

    Guessing lee will last till the last chapter of episode 5. It will the rest of them getting onto the boat with whoever is left. Was thinking of them putting in the ending cutscene with clementine and probally christa and omid driving away on the boat while lee is seen waving goodbye to them as he pulls the pistol out and points it to his own head and it cuts back to a tearful clementine watching lee fall. My other thought was of clementine shooting lee since he taught her enough to survive and shes ready to go on her own.

    How long did Dale last? I feel like Allen lasted a while, too...

    Also Jim lasted a good day, right? And his bite was pretty serious.

    You'll more than likely take the reins of Clementine. And give a prelude to the second season. I'll miss Lee. I shed a tear.

    Telltale said that all episodes are of similar play time, so it doesn't matter if the last episode takes 2, 10, 24 hours, or a week... about 2-3 hours will tell the story. :)

    Dude that is like ZERO incentive for me to play next season. HATE KENNY!

    Dale only lasted that long because he was immediately amputated. I was looking for the option to hatchet Lee but there wasn't one :( BOOOO!

    Adult immune system is going to be stronger than a 10 year old's immune system. I'm not saying he is going to survive the bite, but I'd think he'd have more time than Duck would.

    If the episode plays closer to real time, it won't be a short episode nor feel implausibly long.

    Fifth episode - 2 hours, Lee doesn't get any symptoms yet.
    Second season - next 10 hours, Lee starts getting weaker.
    Third season - next 10 hours, Lee is really weak and starts hallucinating, finally dies at the end.

    Seems pretty hard to picture...

    you want all 5 episodes of TWD to be Lee just feeling sick on Savannah?

    Are people forgetting the very very first trailer for TWD when Christa had a gun pointed to her head? I think this could be a VERY interesting episode!

    You do realize that none of this isn't real, right? The writers can decide Lee will last as long as is necessary for episode 5 or whatever.

    That was the deut trailer that also showed most of the group and glenn sitting around a campfire. They already stated that they have on few real moments in that trailer and others are hints. christa shooting herself while kenny screams no is really jolene shooting herself if u dont give her the gun lee is the one screaming no no nooo. Christa might die but it wont be suicide by gun. almost 100 percent for sure on that.

    Why should this last episode be very short? The other episodes have huge time jumps (sorry, i don't know how I should explain it in English, but I hope you understand what I mean). For example they sleep during the other episodes and so on. If there are no "time jumps" (argh please tell me which words I should use for that^^) in episode 5, this episode can last up to 24 hours..

    True. It's gonna be either Lee till the end of EP 5 OR you take over as Clem. It can't be anyone else, as it is possible for Lee to go searching for Clem alone.
  • edited October 2012
    Just because there's usually a time jump, doesn't mean this episode won't start were you left off. Lee will be playable until the end. Look at the trophies since there the only hints we got(no preview this time).
    'Mercy' I assume is the confrontation with the shadow figure. You decide his phate. Kill him or knock him unconcious. 'What's in the bag?' Someones keeping secrets :) 'Stay close to me.' A Clem & Lee moment. On the verge of turning, there's 1 more decision to either kill yourself or tell Clementine to leave without you. If you turn, Clem makes her decision in 'What remains', depending on how she was raised by you.
    At this point sit back and relax for the rest of the episode unless they do let you control someone else, in which case, the only logical choice is Clementine. Now, please don't take anything I say personally or get mad if this doesn't happen, it's all speculation.
    However, I've been right so far at predictions mostly. The few times I was wrong were shocking or in denial of losing certain characters so easily....

    Not just no, but hell no. :)

    I second this. I'd rather face a game over screen than play as Kenny for even half an episode.

    The episode will be the usual two to two and half hour long feature. It'll probably span about 24 hours maybe, roughly same as what episode 4 did.
  • edited October 2012
    Kenny has become a mopey(not sure of spelling here) b***h. The only thing he cares about is getting on the boat and sailing away. Staying true to the plan he devised to keep him and his family safe/alive(probably out of some sad push to continue on for kat and duck). If I have to control him I don't believe I will be signing up for(buying) Season 2.
  • edited October 2012
    After Lee, we'll probably control Clementine as she'll be the least hated character we have.

    Edit: Oooh, what if we get to control Molly? I'd love that.
  • edited October 2012
    I think after Lee's death you will just see an epiloge and won't play anyone else. Whatever it would be funny to play zombie-Lee lol
  • edited October 2012
    All episodes(maybe except Ep1) so far just took a day in the game,right ? And i'm sure Lee can last a day.
