Why does Clementine get all the hard jobs?
Seriously. She may be a survivor. She may be badass.
But she's just a little girl! Yes, she really is a clever kid, but she definitley is physically way weaker than the others in the group, and they met her like a week ago and already trust her with every god damn thing!
'OMG, we have to turn this off! Does anyone know how?! Oh, Clem is here. You got it, Clem.'
'Let's scout this bridge. Oh, wait, better take someone with me! Clem, let's go.'
'Hey, we should take a look around. Someone could climb up there and have a look...Clementine.'
'Could you look for food in that station? Why I can't help you? Because I HAVE to sit next to my wife.'
And I also don't like how Clem is treated like an adult and is constantly asked for help by grown up people!
It just doesn't feel right if everyone takes Clem's opinion for pure gold! I mean, if I were in their positions, I would use my brain too sometimes, instead of completley relying on a little girl. On everything.
I hope this will change a little in the future, because it really starts to get annoying.
If I play as Clem, I don't WANT to be taken serious all the time. I don't want to be treated like Lee 2.0, I want a new experience, how it feels like if noone takes you totally serious.

pretty much im guessing is because shes the main character, would you like to see someone else instead of you have an epic fight with walkers on a bridge that you might fall off? :P
Because if you dont you would spend the whole episode watching other people do stuff, and no doubt fans like you would complain, and you know that, so why ask?
lol by the way i accidently read the tittle of this thread as " why does Clem get all the HAND jobs " and was all like WTF? lol
You're still posting this around?
Ok. I get that you wouldn't be able to do anything and stuff.
But it would be better if you would support characters more, and not do literally everything.
It just feels weird.

It seems slightly unrealistic that grown adults would have a kid do everything, but hey, zombies.
Better not to think too much about it. Now go check out that station while I sit my fat ass on this branch.
I hear what you're saying but ultimately it doesn't sound like something I would like to see changed. If we aren't doing something important/dangerous as Clem that means were going to be watching someone else do it, and that to me doesn't sound particularly engaging. Also they aren't completely ignoring Clems age. There are definitely times where characters express uncertainty in the realm of "Should I really be asking an 11 year-old to do this?" even if their resolution always results in "Yes, I should."
I admit it is a little goofy, but frankly I feel it is necessary.
Alvin was my boy but he really pissed me off when he asked me to go into the station and find his fat ass and Rebecca some food. And then his greedy ass wanted to keep it all!
That scene was so stupid
'Why don't you come with me?'
'I...uh...have to...look out for my wife.'
Remember when we were urban and had one arm and had to do everything? Yeah, some things never change.
How the hell did you do that?
Maybe they don't get that Clem is a kid, they may think that she is a dwarf.
Well most of the group has seen how tough she was, they probably made her do most of the task to gain more trust I guess.
