    AWFUL EPISODE!! I can't believe it was that bad, I am really disappointed. I LOVED episodes 1-4, but this one was terrible, not only that but extremely short. I just beat it.

    I started balling my eyes out when it came to that last choice. Once the credits started i literally got up, still crying, and grabbed the Brandy ;_;

    My first thought was giving him a Captcha to solve....

    Would that be a drink or your significant other? Because either one seems like a viable option right now.

    I forgot the blonde hair girl's name, but wasn't she confirmed to being in episode 5?

    The drink. Significant other once I calm down, lol

    PLEASE don't spoil yourself. PLEASE. I'll answer, but try your damned hardest to experience it:



























    Deciding if Clem should shoot you. You also get to choose your final words to her ;_;

    I never cried EVER because of a game, and this game caused me to. Kenny has been my bro since the beginning. we agreed on everything..... except Ben. I saved him. when Ben fell and the zombies started coming, I wanted to leave him. Kenny wanted to stay. I decided I would fight to the end with him. when he shoved me through that gate, I started crying sooooooo much. the next 5 minutes were all silent Lee. so sad. ;(

    Oh and I chose for her not to shoot me, it was a waste of a bullet and I didn't want her to have to do that.

    I was in denial. I even said "maybe he got away" but the after stats confirmed what I thought I saw in the ally from the bird view :(
    If saving dropping Ben in episode 4 saves Kenny I'm going to be pissed. ;_;

    I thought, as cold as it sounds, it would tough Clem up a bit to make her put me down. Spread your wings and fly, little one, you need this last push to help you fully develop.

    Well I let Ben die in my game in episode 4, for me it was Christa that jumped down and Kenny saved her.

    Molly. She wasn't confirmed, everyone just assumed because it was impossible to get her killed in Episode 4. Maybe that means she'll come back in Season 2.
    Oh and I chose for her not to shoot me, it was a waste of a bullet and I didn't want her to have to do that.

    What happens then? Does she just walk out?

    Yeah, she just walks away and you see Lee pass out basically.

    Well that's certainly less dramatic.

    Is it possible for Lee to not get shot during the fight with Campman?

    Did Christa survive? in my game ben got impaled on a spike and Kenny stayed with him till the end. I felt it was a fitting end for him.
  • edited November 2012
    This is the first game I ever cried. From the beginning whether to cut off Lee's arm to the very end there's so many hard choices to make.

    yes, Kenny had her climb on her and he got her out of there. As far as I know she and Omid were still alive at the end.

    Did anyone not chop off Lee's arm? I did it because I figured that was the only chance he had.

    By the way, who here cut off Lees arm? I didn't. what happens through the game ( dialogue, events, etc )
  • edited November 2012
    I chopped off Lee's arm.

    if Ken saves Christa, is his fate not so.. ambiguous? I know he IS dead but... I was in denial because I'm one of those "if I don't see the body then I won't believe they are dead" type of people.

    Also, that twist with campman.. made my jaw literally drop.
    What happens if you didn't take the supplies from the car?

    you don't see Kenny die, you hear him saying things like "get off me" and then something like "I'm alright, you guys go". but you don't actually know for sure if hes dead, just assume that hes dead.

    Yeah, that twis with Campman surprised me to. I liked how he brought up all your wrongdoings as well.

    That's what happened in my game. You see a hoard chowing down on a body, but it could have been Ben. That's why I was in such denial.

    unlesss Telltale has a trick up their sleeves for season 2. there's that denial kicking in again...

    Yeah, it made me feel like a piece of shit. Almost made me consider letting him take Clem.. until I realized what's in the bag...

    So Kenny's death is ambiguous in both cases? That's...interesting.

    Yeah I didn't see a hord chowing down on someone, it was a "I'm not sure if hes alive or not but I'm going to assume he died" moment.

    In a way I agree.But I wouldn't say terrible.

    I'm a bit dissapointed about who was on the other end of the walkie-talkie.I feel it would've been more interesting if he were someone from Lee's past or even the Crawford leader.

    Also,maybe it's just me,but I thought it was bit silly when Lee was all gung-ho in the street with the walkers.Tell me why they all weren't after him?Sure a few were but most just didn't seem to care.

    About Lee's death,it's about what I expected.It was sad but I wasn't bawling.The whole "goodbye" sequence didn't satisfy me.I was waiting for the option to tell Clem that I loved her.Just would've been more of a closure for me.

    Oh I just remembered something that made me laugh.When the gang was trapped in the house upstairs and we're preparing to shoot,did anybody think of Charlie's Angels?lol We did the poses I swear.

    But yeah.The episode was good but could've been better in my opinion.Please don't anyone kill me.lol

    I thought EP.#4 was the best and this episode was the worst. Still a great game.

    He still blames you need because it was your people who took the supplies.

    Campman really reminded me of the Governor in some ways.

    Spoilers if you haven't read the comics...


    Like with Penny. If you've read Rise of the Governor, you'd realize he isn't evil, he's just.. severely mentally disturbed after all the shit he went through. So that's the light I saw campman in. Though, he needed to die... I'm so proud of Clemmy for poppin' him. Though I felt bad at the same time, that she had to do that.
  • edited November 2012
    Just finished it.

    It wasn't what I was expecting. I was expecting Campman would tell me to do something, and I'd have to fight my way across town to get to him (to be honest, I had absolutely no idea what his motivation could have been). But then he said, "it's a rescue," and I thought, how the hell am I going to find him? Does he really mean it?

    I chose to go it alone, but we were reunited again pretty quick. I didn't chop off my arm, because I believed the infection had already spread too far. Huge decision though.

    I was shocked when Kenny stayed behind. I wanted to save Ben, but I knew it wasn't going to happen. I hope Kenny survived, and I'm sad Ben didn't really get a chance to prove himself.

    I almost thought Campman was sane until he started talking to his wife. Euch.

    Teared up at the end, but I wasn't as heartbroken as I thought I would be. Sad I didn't get to tell Clem I loved her.

    And what was with the epilogue scene? I'll be interested to know just how different it can be, depending on your choices.

    Overall the episode was good, but it felt a little short, and it was nothing like I was expecting (not that that is a bad thing). I'm glad I was able to save Clem.

    How the FUCK couldn't Kenny take out the cancer survivors!?! They're all 50 and up! That was out of character for both him and Vernon! Vernon wasn't a guy that would steal a boat and potentially KILL a group of 6!
    Putting that aside I REALLY liked the episode. Really well done and well performed. Also, how in the hell did Clem pull Lee to that store?!
  • edited November 2012
    Loved it! Wept like a little baby. Watching Clem hold the door knob hoping Lee won't die was just gut wrenching!

    Also, I don't know how many others have read the comic books but in the epilogue doesn't the scenery, the hillside, and the two people standing on top of the hill remind you of a certain moment where Rick finds out about the towns? Couldn't help wondering if Clem ends up finding a home.

    I thought this was an amazing episode. still have to decide if it is my favorite. (2 & 4 are tied. ) It was short, but really got the message through. this one focused on wrapping up characters stories.
