Should the St. John brothers return (if you let them live)?
I'm not too sure how much of a part they could play in season 2, since there's only so many different story paths Telltale could cram into five episodes, but should they make some kind of appearance regardless?
I think Telltale could make things a little easier on themselves by having the brothers show up as walkers, with a few minor differences depending on Lee's actions in the last game. One way or another, the farm was being overrun by zombies, and it's unlikely they would have escaped even if Lee allowed both brothers to live. If Lee killed Danny, for example, we'd see Walker-Danny appear with a pitchfork still impaled through his chest. Or if Lee shot Andrew through the head instead of kicking him into the fence, Walker-Andrew wouldn't appear at all. Little details like that wouldn't give Telltale too many grey hairs, but it would still give ongoing players a treat, so to speak.

They did know. It was arranged between them and the bandits. The bandits could have easily killed Mark. Maybe even Lee, who was probably their target.
They only used the bandits as an excuse to kill Jolene, who would have spilled out their plan(to kill them and eat them).
In both my playthroughs, I didn't hesitate in killing those fuckers.
I don't think the bandits had any part in it. The St. Johns had probably planned to knock Lee and Mark unconscious by turning the fence on(knowing they would be out there), then retrieve them and cut them up.
Well then the rest of the group is going to wonder what happened to them when they get there. Some version of the St. Johns "deal" with the bandits was probably still on. If you kill Jolene and mention her after Danny steps in the trap he says "That bitch never got it! She almost fucked up our best deal!" Clearly something was still going on between the two groups.
I think in that case, they would tell the group that bandits had killed Lee and Mark while they were on the outskirts of the farm and walkers ate their remains or some such, then the group would probably leave and head back to the Motor Inn(in which case the St. Johns lose nothing but gain more food to trade). I also think Danny meant that Jolene almost told the bandits that they were receiving human meat, since she herself used to be one and probably had contact with them.
well the only time seeing andy st john again would have been with the bandits in the start of ep 3, if you let him live that is it could have been cool to see andy team with the bandits to go after lee and his group and lily would shoot him in the face
I wanted them to be eaten alive by walkers.
I was quick to execute Larry and both brothers. I had a moment of hestitation for Clementine's sake--but they were all threats and not in my circle of trust. I'd rather her feel bad about my actions than wind up killed/eaten by one of them.
If you think about it being only 5 episodes. They can choose the length of them. They could make it so each episode could be 5-7 hours instead of 2-3. They dont really have a real limit other than what they have set themselves.
And no, i think their fate was sealed when you left the farm even if you did not kill them. The only way would be that the brother outside survived and wants revenge for his brother and mothers death.
I'm not a "killer" and did not want Clem to see what i did. They were helpless and i'm not a monster like they are, therefor i let them go.
I would love to see Andy again, not as an antagonist, but a broken man who has no idea what he's even living for. Could Clem help him? Should she? Would she forgive him? Maybe he could request she kill him or maybe she could choose to do so herself, out of fear or anger.
TellTale loves to subvert the player's expectations, and pretty much everyone states that both brothers were devoured by the zombies if you didn't kill them, even though you never actually SEE this.
They won't come back as even if you leave them most of the chances are they got eaten by walkers..and even if they did clem would recognize them..I dont think she forgot whitnessing larry's horrible death
That's the whole point. Clem is going to be our new protagonist, and given her size and age, she's going to need dilemmas far more unique than Lee's. I love the idea of her running into a seemingly-broken Andy at, say, Tavia's settlement. As someone who has lost everything, including all semblance of family she had, she can relate to him, but like you said, no way could she ever forget the events of that night. What does she do? Tell the others who and what he is? What would be the result? Would they believe her? Would her outing him make him angry enough to target her? Would he be kicked out or even executed? Maybe even a moment where she has to choose his fate. Does she get revenge? Mercy kill him? Try and help him recover? She's not Lee. If she chooses to trust him and makes a wrong call, she can't hope to fight him off.
