Kenny, the biggest hypocrite ever

Kenny saltlicks Larry to prevent him from turning, even though he wasn´t dead for sure:

"Hey don´t be mad at me, someone here have to have the balls to do the hard thing."

Clementine axes Sarita to prevent her from turning, when everyone including Kenny saw that she was bitten and bleeding from the arm, meaning she wouldn´t make it for sure:

"STUPID FUCKING KID!"

So the "hard thing" is allowed to be done as long as it isn´t YOUR family, right? Seriously, FUCK KENNY.

  • I'm more pissed that Sarita's trauma is assumed horrible because it 'hurts' Kenny, rather than killing her. If the writers bothered to make us care about her as an entity separate from Kenny, or at least allowed Clem to have a conversation with her that wasn't about him, then I'd be a little more forgiving of how everybody is talking about her boyfriend rather than grieving over her.

    Lol its actually a good callback to the first season

    Kenny: (after salt licking larry) "Im sorry"

    Lilly: GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM ME!

    Season two

    Clem: We have to go

    Kenny: GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM US

  • Kenny has always been a jerk, did you play season 1? This is nothing new, he has a attitude, you just have to deal with, personally i love Kenny. Even when he is hard to deal with, he reminds me of my best friend in real life, they have basically the same character flaws.

  • Kenny is the Joel (The Last of Us) of Telltale's TWD, if I may be so bold. And a little coy.

  • YEAH...If i were there, I would have killed Kenny in the 1st season! lol! he sucks!

  • Yeah, when I saw this scene I thought: you deserve that. Of course I liked Sarita but still... Larry could be alive. Sarita couldn't. These were really similiar scenes, especially if Clem said sorry after axing her. And yes, Kenny is the biggest hypocrite ever.

  • someone here have to have

    *has or *needs

    Hehe, sorry for being a grammar nazi.

    Anyway, yeah he is, i guess that's why there are so many people that don't like him.

  • Sarita didn't deserve to 'die' any more than Duck did. Kenny's mindset of the world punishing him for his mistakes by killing his loved ones is a silly one, but apparently easier to deal with than realizing that the world is a chaotic place.

    I'm just saying, everyone is a bit of a hypocrite at this point. The reasong being that most of the time you have to be.

    -Lee can go off on Kenny for murder when he's done it before himself and determinantly does it again 5 mimutes later.

    -Clementine can condemn Carver for his actions and leave Sarah to die a day later.

    -Alvin seemed really pissed that Nick killed Matthew but we later find out he wasn't a stranger to murder either.

    Kenny IS a hypocrite, but so is everyone, or mostly everyone who's lived 2 years in the ZA.

    In other words, my only problem with your thread is that it appears to be just another biased one that further proves Kenny's fans point: they might not be the most annoying out there after all.

  • I don't think he was even thinking of that meat locker.

  • Even if these are apt comparisons, Kenny is the one who is relentlessly a dick about his shittiness. The guy shows little empathy and remorse. His concept of taking charge is bossing people around, but taking no responsibility. Kenny has been a constant source of toxicity in groups, except, it seemed, when he stayed with 3 doormats. His redemption, in my game, involved him admitting what a dick he was to Ben at least, then getting himself killed. Now Kenny is back, seemingly through magic, doing the same old shit.

  • My theory is that he came back to become as villainous as Carver.

  • Kenny Can be a dick but who else isn't? Luke, Larry,Carver,Troy,Lee (determinant) all act like dicks at some point, Kenny lost a loved one and Its pretty realistic to lash out at others like he did so most of you would have done something similar , admit it or not...

  • Yeah that's more of Bad Writing....

  • Yeah, that kind of came out of no where.... and lol look at my dislikes, keep em coming ...

  • True, but for some he had reasons but the "blame Clem when she didn't cut the arm" seemed like Bad writing to me, but you are right he has done LOTS of other things...

  • We're not discussing how plot convenient Kenny coming back was, or how much of a dick he is. But if you want to talk about assholes, you probably realized Luke started 90% of their arguments in Episode 4. Luke kept getting in Kenny's face and took every available opportunity to do so. Whether it was because of his mental state, his obsession with the baby, or just everything he thought was right for the group. Not to mention, the ONE time Kenny called him out for being a reckless moron Luke goes on to cry because of how shitty his life is. Yeah, because the rest are having a blast.

    Let's get back on track. The thread is about picking Kenny out of a huge group and saying "HA! What a hypocrite, fuck you."

  • See, this seems to be a constant problem with trying to explain why Kenny is disliked: Those who defend him doesn't even acknowledge his actual flaws, compartmentalizes shit, then redirects the criticism to some other character. "But this other character was was also doing this thing that may be bad!"

    Kenny is a hypocrite. And yes, fuck him and his hypocrisy. And his bad attitude. And his lack of empathy. And his bossiness. His belittling of everyone. His pettiness and petulance. His selfishness. Fuck him for suggesting to leave a girl to suffer just to scavenge a bit longer. Fuck him for refusing to help rescue Clem. Fuck his hypocrisy.

    I find it hilarious how you went from a calm, relartively well prepared arguer to basically copying and pasting a wall full of "Fuck Kenny." Talk about going downhill.

    Did you even read the part where I clearly said Kenny IS a hypocrite? Derp question. You clearly didn't.

    What the fuck, you're right! Kenny killed Larry when he wasn't sure he was dead, and he wasn't bitten. Clem killed Sarita when she was sure she was dying, bitten and bleeding out, and he said that someone''s gotta do the hard thing.

    Kenny will go insane as Lilly almost did, and it will be like this:

    1: Kenny lost Sarita, and they're attacked and end up in gunfight with Russians. / Lilly lost Larry, they're attacked and end up in gunfight with bandits and walkers.

    2: Kenny and the group gets away / Lilly and the group gets away.

    3: Luke will start saying someone caused this (Kenny killed Rebecca/yelling at the russians!!) / Lilly will start saying someone caused this (Ben working with bandits)

    4: Kenny gets mad and shoots Luke / Lilly gets mad and shoots Carley/Doug

    5: Clem will have the choice to leave Kenny behind!! / Lee will have the choice to leave Lilly behind!!

    (If you take Kenny with you this will happen!)

    6: You find something you were looking for (Wellington) / You find something awesome (The train)

    7: You search the city / You search the train

    8: Kenny steals the baby and runs off / Lilly steals the RV and drives off

    Damn, what if this could happen??? :D

  • He may be a big hypocrite, but that's a part of why he's a complex and well-written character, which leads to why people included me love him!

    Did you miss the part where I'm laying out the reasons why Kenny is the hypocrite that is getting singled out? Derp question. You clearly did.

    I find it hilarious how you went from redirecting the criticism to other characters, to redirecting the criticism to me. Talk about not actually having a counter argument.

  • Talk about not actually having a counter argument.<

    Yep. This is the end.

    I've proved you wrong, or at least provided enough evidence to prove you're not right either on everything you've said. Then you went on to basically confuse me with someone else by saying "I don't accept Kenny's flaws".

    Additionally, I'm still waiting for your response on how Kenny is the asshole after Episode 4. I'll give you a moment to think about it since I just opened your eyes about Luke. Just come back when you have something interesting to say, or when you have something that's actually true. Crappy 80's generalization ain't gonna cut it with me.

    Actually, we'll continue when you realize "But they did bad stuff too!" doesn't really address or refute my reasons why Kenny is particularly disliked.

    I wait for you to see the humor in you essentially saying this thread isn't about all the things wrong with Kenny, just kenny's hypocrisy, when you just went on about the things wrong with Luke before and after that post.

    Just come back when you have something non snarky to say. Flimsy, grasping, and strawmen ain't gonna cut it with me.:)

  • Are you.... serious? You can't be.

    One of the first points I adressed was that the content of this thread itself wasn't actually wrong, because Kenny is a hypocrite. Did you just find that out?

    I only came here to prove why this pick and smash was unfair. Which I successfully did.

    Since then you ranted on and proceeded to indirectly call me fake and we technically argued about three topics at the same time due to your lack of responses to each one of them. It felt like playing Mario 64 all over again.

    It's okay, girl :)

  • Oh? If only you would point out these sloppy and inconsistent arguments instead of snarking I might learn the error of my ways!

    Or continue the snark. I'm actually perversely entertained by it.

  • I think they established that with the Duck thing. Yeah, it's always easy for Kenny to do the hard thing as long as it's not someone he cares about. In his defense, that probably would be hard for anyone.
