Possible horrible things that will occur in season 2.

edited December 2012 in The Walking Dead
So in season 1 we have dealt with some bad things like cannibals, bandits, and of course the insanity of others. Wonder what kind of things we could see for the second season of the walking dead.

    1) Crazy religious cult that believes that zombieism is a blessing to be embraced like Omega Man.

    2) Zombie curse is blamed on (fill in the blank) and a witch hunt ensures.

    3) Über-zombies???

    1) Sounds a little bit interesting, but I do not really believe it.

    2) Mhm... Maybe.

    3) Like whut?

    Walker friendly cult is bound to happen sooner or later. That'd be pretty neat too, would kinda mimic the St. John's in a way. New group finds this town with several people in it, they take them in and but eventually learn that they plan to have a big group turning, they sacrifice one of our group and that person comes back and turns most of them and maybe bites another group member.

    Clementine is *probably* safe. *Probably*. With Kirkman you really can't tell. In fact, some Kirkman watchers might argue that because Clementine seems so incontrovertibly safe, Kirkman will make a point of killing her, because one of the points of TWD is to mess with and break your expectations of happy outcomes.

    Anyway, one big aspect of a broken down world that we haven't seen yet is rape/sex slavery. Maybe we won't, may be too hot for Telltale, but given some stuff they have shown I wouldn't say it's completely off the table.

    Another possibility: a horrific death for Omid because he's Mr Funnypants and Mr Funnypants isn't supposed to have a horrific death, goes back to what I said about Kirkman in the first paragraph.

    Some people are predicting something ghastly re: Christa's baby, but I don't think so. I think it's possible that Christa's journey to delivery will be the focus of a future season and that it will have to be possible for the baby to survive for that to work. (Otherwise, it would be like making Season 1, the point of which is to save Clementine, without the player being able to save Clementine.)

    kenny is alive, but at some point gets bitten and lies about.

    they forshadowed it in the attic scene when kenny says he'd lie about being bit

    Maybe they'll have the player's character begin to go insane. The rest of the group realizes how dangerous the insane PC is that the season ends with him/her being exiled and left for dead by the few people that remain (and possibly have one character choose to go with you, depending on how much they like you).

    I was just about to say it.

    But it's not too hot. Remember Jolene? In her video she dropped the camera and called the people approaching her "rapist"...uhh bastards? I can't remember. But they definitely raped her and whatnot. Both the sex trade and slavery could be a pretty interesting feature I think. Maybe it's just too early in the apocalypse in the game but who knows

    Rapist monsters. I'm pretty sure they also raped her daughter.

    My mind thought of something completly fucked up when you mentioned Christa and the possiblity of a baby. That baby would have the zombie virus, so would it not awake if it was stillborn? Christa could be literally done over like a person would in an alien movie.
    Pregnancy might be a real problem in that type of apocalypse, which we might see something of. It is literally so hopeless that you can't even breed without that being a possible problem.

    We do not know, if newborns are infected, too~

    Like in all zombie movies they will search how it happenend. Just the standard things they will blame the government bla bla bla bla bla.

    Kind of happened already in the Dawn of the Dead remake (2004). A women died in childbirth, father keeps zombie wife and zombie baby. Other survivor finds out-chaos ensues.

    While the women wasnt eaten from the inside, it has sort of been done before. What I think is more likely is that we get to help Christa decide whether keeping the baby is worth it. Say we go into a pharmacy and find some pills. Do we say its not possible to raise a child in this world and the baby would endanger the rest of us with crying? Or do we take a chance and keep it? I can see that being a major choice in season 2.

    Traitors... That's all I'm saying, they havent done the whole "Trust" thing to the max yet ... what if, in episode 1, they give you a survivor, who's MASSIVLY likeable, like a male carley or something, then towards the penultimate/last episode, he betrays you, wiping out every character you cared about and then almost kills you, leaving it on a cliffhanger?

    It'll teach you and others that you cant trust anymore ... I'd like this alot.

    I also hope season 2 has more episodes.. and by god.. dont kill the PC AGAIN, it wont have that much of a emotional impact anymore..

    I like that idea a lot actually, that would be really interesting, hope they do something like that.

    Rape has been mentioned multiple times. As was stated already, Jolene and possibly her daughter were raped, and I can't remember if it ended up being in the game or if it was just left out voice recordings, but Ben mentions being forced to watch his classmates get raped. So it's definitely not off the table as a possibility.

    I just find the whole baby thing interesting because I'm wondering how it's still alive now. I can't tell you how hard I flinched when she landed on her stomach after jumping across the balcony, I think she has a serious possibly of a miscarriage, and seeing as the virus spreads through the air, if the baby is somehow not infected yet, then it certainly would be if it was born. They could go about it a lot of ways, it really should be a focus in the next season, assuming her and Omid are still alive.

    Do you have the video with the audio on it?
  • edited December 2012
    I think that season 2 should focus more on romance, because that's a big factor that destroys relationships in the comics. I would also like to see an antagonist like the Governor, who keeps control of his own community and lashes it out with the protagonist.

    *coughCarlcough* Clem is just like him, in the sense that they are both "safe".

    I looked into it to check it and turns out that it was from his unused audio clips (my point still stands though, seeing as they were originally intended to be used in the game).
    You can listen to them here: http://thewalkingdeadgameconfessions.tumblr.com/post/35713099073/ben-paul-bens-unused-lines-from-episode-2

    On a semi-related note, his original voice kinda sounds like a younger Kenny. It's cute but I prefer his final/in-game voice

    Edit:
    Thought I'd also mention that it's confirmed on the wiki, seeing as the way he says it can seem a little vague.

    I'm going to assume Christa, Omid and Clem are coming back so.

    1. Something horrible that happens with a very pregnant/given birth Christa, I could come up with a dozen or two ideas but I doubt you want to read them all. A 8 month or so jump is still well within comic canon so this is possible.

    2. The new crew joins/enters/escapes the horde into a Negan/Woodbury like settlement. Something horrible happens to at least one of the crew as payment or retribution or something messed up. Gets shot, tortured, etc.

    3. A member of the new group are really working for someone else and double cross the other members getting someone injured, killed, bla, bla.

    4. Someone in the new group (if its large enough) is a real does it for fun type murderer. People keep vanishing throughout the story and you never really know what exactly is going on till its to late of course.

    5. One of the new crew members throws someone to the zombies to save themselves. I imagine this would be a way to kill of a cool character/love interest so the hated jerk can save himself.

    6. You find a working car with your crew and bandits come up the road trying to kill you and your group. The bandits take out your tires smash into a tree at least one person dies. Remaining bandits capture you.

    I could probably do this all night but I think that is good enough, for now anyway.
