I felt it was short, however I thought that every second mattered and was intense. But yeah man I'm defiantly like you, I would love to see the "lighter" moments (There were some) however, I think Telltale really wanted to focus on Clementine's "new" character in the first episode which didn't allow you to build the relationships which would allow "lighter" dialogue. We will see as I literally can not wait!
I think telltale did a good Job with the episode . Infact I don't have any complaints (other than that it felt too short) I felt that all the … moredark moments helped develop the story and explain to us how the situation has effected and molded both clem and other survivors. I just hope that tell tale don't forget to put in some of those lighter moments like clem putting a bug in ducks bed or licking the cows salt lick.
At what point did I ever say I loathed Kenny? And at what point did I ever criticize anyone speculating his possible return? Personally, I wouldn't surprised one bit if he made a return, and I wouldn't be upset about it either.
The only thing I criticize is people claiming Telltale is teasing Kenny's return by pointing things out that simply aren't there, and then getting mad when it turns out that it's not Kenny. It's not hindsight that Nick's clothes are different. You can go back and take a closer look and see that they are different from the beginning. It was even pointed out by forum members before the episode was released.
Nick wasn't wearing Kenny's clothes in the trailer. Kenny's hat had a white stripe in the middle, Nick's was a solid color. What everyone assu… moremed was a necklace was actually Nick's undershirt.
That's hindsight. You're making those assessments after playing through the episode itself. I'm just going by what Telltale showed in the trailer.
Telltale isn't trolling the community with Kenny hints so much as the community trolling themselves with Kenny theories.
...or maybe it would just be easier to admit you flat-out loathe Kenny, and would rage-quit in a comical fashion if he made so much as a cameo? Despising Kenny is your right as a fan, but lambasting forum members who want to speculate about his possible return isn't.

Allow me to use this quote again:

I've seen this kind of patronizing attitude displayed all over the forum, and quite frankly I've had enough. If Telltale didn't dress Nick in identical clothes to Kenny, they definitely went out of their way to give them an uncanny resemblance. (Seriously, just watch the way Nick moves when he's carrying a rifle.) I didn't say it was outright trolling on Telltale's part, just teasing. But I think the claims that Telltale deliberately made Nick's physical appearance similar to Kenny's are founded, and don't deserve to be prematurely mocked.

I have a theory as to how (and when) they'll bring Kenny back in a way that could make all parties satisfied, but I'd rather not say in case I turn out to be wrong.
I will point out that both ways Kenny can "die" purposely leave the door open for him to still be alive. In fact, you even have to choose a dialogue option (in both cases) to declare that he's dead or say that he might have survived. He was clearly not unarguably killed off in season one. If he shows up, it isn't a silly rabbit from a hat trick. It was already foreshadowed quite prominently in the first season.
if kenny comes back alive i wont be playing anymore most likely. I say this because like if lee came back, it would greatly cheapen the story… more. All the haters will downvote me for this, but think of how pointless it would be to bring him back, just for the sake of it. It would ruin his PERFECT story arc if he just "comes back to life," and cheapen the loss of characters in TWD which is the last thing that should be done in TWD universe.
There were just as many fans on this board who claimed they wouldn't play season 2 if the PC was Clementine. I think those same fans are playing the game anyway, no matter how much they grumble about it.

They had already lost me. I got 400 days, thought perhaps it would be more interesting. It was okish. Heard about the release of Season 2 and decided to watch the walkthrough to see if it was worth buying. It wasn't. I like Clem a little bit more since she's more self reliant but the game isn't one that I want to play anymore. That doesn't mean I don't want to see how the story goes....hence the walkthrough view.
Of course. Don't people watch movies or TV shows ? Major characters's deaths are always shown on screen to add to the emotional impact. When such a death is not shown, it's for a reason.

For me, it's not the fact that you had to kill the dog. It's the fact that the dog was written to be the friendliest entity in the entire series (besides Clementine) and you spent all this time bonding and throwing frisbees, and with no obvious bite marks to indicate he was infected. And they were building him up to be your companion for all of the season, possibly helping you along the way (and being a fuzzy pillow to cry on). And then all of a sudden, the dog goes psycho and tries to kill you over a few beans?
The writing was a bit sloppy and all over the place in the episode. What happened to Christa's baby? How did the random girl in the beginning manage to avoid being seen by both Omid and Christa, when one of them was standing right outside the door? How did Carlos know you had help from Sarah? And I wish you wouldn't be blamed for letting someone die when you could only choose one person.
I just don't get this.. How can a dog dying be a line that just SHOULDN'T be crossed? Humans being torn apart and eaten alive is somehow less … moreoffensive? lol that just doesn't make much sense if you ask me. I might understand if we were forced to, say, hunt the dog or something like that, but this was a case of self defense.
Sorry guys, But as much as I love the series if Clem dies then I probably won't play anymore. I feel such a strong bond with this character that it would be extremely hard for them to replicate it.

Same here, trying to find away to take my mind off of it so the time passes quickly but I am failing miserably.

I'm interested if you ever do wish to share it?
I actually posted a thread about it, but since nobody replied, I just assumed the idea wasn't popular. So I abandoned it.

ummmm when did I ever even say anything about Clem? And so what? I fail to see your point...
Wrong. I said it. I didn't buy it. I watched a walkthrough. Next.

Wait, they left?!!?!? When did this happen!?!?
What about Lee's death?
What's The Wire?
Nothing! UNLESS they kill Clem unhonorably like Omid!
Hence your name "ClemClemForever"

Shocking, yes. Pointless, no.

Do yourself a favor and watch it.

So yea, Clemmy dying = Me no longer play :P
