Another tiny "No Going Back" theory [Episode 2 spoilers]
After playing "A House Divided", which to me was the most intense episode I've played so far, I came up with a random theory regarding Episode 5's title. In Episode 2, I got the vibe that we'll eventually have to choose between staying with our new group, or joining forces with our "old friends" once again. Especially with Luke and Kenny, who are so far the leaders, butting heads. This of course is going on the hopes that Telltale could give us different endings, which would be an amazing and striking difference from Season One.
I'm not sure if they'd do this, but who knows. It'd really be a break through from the story's mainly linear past, and they do seem to be shaking things up a bit by adding more determinate characters and such. Here's a scenario:
Everyone (or not everyone) makes it up to Wellington, but due to some differences they decide to split up permanently, although It's on good terms. Say we meet up again with Christa there, and she goes with Kenny because that's the only other person she knows besides Clementine. Both sides want you to come with them, and care for you deeply. After all that you've went through, in the end, who would you (as the player) stay with? Do you think your bond with the Season One characters, who also knew Lee for that matter, would prevail and prove to be stronger? Or do you think you'd become more attached to the cabin group? I know I'd be torn. Heck, I couldn't even decide who to sit with. Thoughts?

I wouldnt choose anything, I would let clementine to decide what she wants...
If this is true, I'm totally going with Kenny. The cabin group can't be trusted. Luke is WAY too nice and Alvin killed that George guy.
Having to make that coice would kill me, i had a hard time choosing who to sit with too.
Maybe i would go with the Cabin group. Why go only with Kenny and Christa, when you can go with Luke, Nick, Carlos etc... But again what the fuck do i know.
I actually wish this would happen! But, it does sound like too much of a happy ending for TT to actually do. Regardless, if I were to choose, I'd choose Kenny and Christa in a split second.
I feel like people in the cabin group trusted you a lot though... Nick told you about his Mom and his feelings if you saved Pete, and after Rebecca gave you crap she apologized and told you what it was about. But I don't know about Alvin and Luke... I feel like they are not as trustworthy.
I'm siding with Kenny on absolutely everything till the end, no matter how insane people think he might be.
I meant as being the player for Clementine, who would you choose? Like the choice between shooting Lee or leaving him in "No Time Left". Sorry for the confusion, haha.
Let's say in episode 2 for someone, Pete Nick and Alvin die. That leaves Clementine with a pretty small Cabin group. d: Just pointing that out.
That would be a very interesting choice. There are two factors for me. If Molly is included, where she is(that will probably make me instantly choose that side), and where the 400 days characters are, if any of them are on either side. My favorite 400 days protagonists are Shel and Becca, Vince, and Wyatt, so I'd probably want to go where ever they went if they were on the same side.
If the groups don't include Molly or the 400 days characters, I think I would probably go with Kenny....I sat with him on my original playthrough at his table and felt bad for Luke, but I still sat with Kenny. I think it would probably be the same. Then again, we still have 3 episodes to get to know the cabin group and see how Kenny might have changed.
Good theory. Lets just see how episode 3 and 4 go. We need to get to know the cabin group more because when Carver says "You don't know who these people are do you?" makes me nervous. In the end I think I would have to go with the cabin group. Kenny has changed into a man I no longer know, Christa however is more like a mother figure(well to me) and would make me sad to see her go with Kenny. I doubt it though Christa didn't really like Kenny so I hope she goes wherever Clementine chooses. Carlos, Rebecca, Nick, Luke, Sarah, and Alvin all trust me and love me now. They are my new family.
I was thinking... you know how you end up going with carver? what if he turns clem evil, and there's bad things she has to do... and theres no coming back from it... i dunno
I understood the question and I didnt choose nothing at the end, clementine decided instead of me. See here: http://kotaku.com/5975065/if-you-didnt-make-this-choice-in-the-walking-dead-clementine-would-make-it-for-you
Kenny all the way 4 me, Luke is way to nice... Alvin is a dick.
Right now i would probably go with Kenny and Christa, because i know them from the first season and i can trust them. Maybe if Kenny goes nuts, because Sarita dies and Christa blames you for Omid's death i can imagine going with the new group.
Oh, I never considered that. Thanks for pointing that out!
I think Clem is destined this season for a fate worse then death, being alone.
