***** or ****** decision in episode 3?

Anyone else feel that Telltale is likely to pull this on us? An unpleasant choice where we have to choose between Kenny or Sarita in a life/death situation? On top of everything else, what if Kenny is shouting at us to save Sarita at the expense of his life?

I'm just taking into account the way Telltale likes to screw around with our emotions. If we save Kenny, he'll become more unhinged, and blame us for Sarita's death. If we save Sarita, she becomes despondent and kills herself, like Katjaa before her.

I'm praying to the video game gods that I'm wrong about this one. It's the sort of "black hole" scenario someone like Robert Kirkman would cook up, not the men and women responsible for season 1. A Kenny/Luke choice would be a much better direction to take IMO, as it's a situation that would leave the pro- and anti- Kenny camps happy.

    Ya, if that ever comes up consider Sarita dead

  • There would be a lot of dead Sartias. Easy choice for me.

    That decision would be way to easy...we don't know nothing about Sarita yet, exept the facts that she is a very nice person, alot like Katja and saved Kenny from going insane out of pain and sorrow.

    I think Saritas main purpose in this story is to have someone Kenny cares about, exept Clem herself ofcourse. He will be very upset about her death and we will have to either side with him and help him get though this hard times once more, or not.

    Choosing to safe Saritas life instead of Kennys, only real Kenny haters and Lilly fans would do that!

  • I agree with the folks above me, this choice would make itself. Though honestly I'd choose Kenny over anyone else in the current group.

    No offense, Luke, but Kenny is the closest thing I have to Lee, and there's no way I'm gonna let him go again.

  • Seriously though how many people would save Sarita ? Opps I forgot Lilly fans exist.

    Noo! Please NOOO! I don`t want to choose between them!!

  • I didn't wanna choose between Pete and Nick, but guess what happened.

    But what if Kenny is yelling at you to save Sarita. That would be so much harder because your choosing between your selfish needs and what Kenny wants.

  • I'd save her, because Christ, we've seen enough Kenny.

  • Exactly.

  • Unless Sarita gets some good character development in the next Episode, I'd probably go with Kenny. If it were someone else, like say Luke or Nick I had to save instead of Kenny, I'd be more likely to pick them because Kenny has had his time in the spotlight. Sarita is just kind of... there. Luke and Nick have actual presence.

  • THIS!

  • How about...Kenny or Christa!? (in case she ever comes back:)

    Yes that makes sense actually...i never thought about it that way.

    Kenny wouldn't want us to save him, he would obviously want us to save Sarita instead and would most likely even be blaming us for saving his life.

    This choice suddenly got interesting! :D

    It will be too much for a little girl, dont you think ? Luke already became Clems bro and on the other side her old friend from the past ..

  • I bet its going to come at the last episode outta Kenny and Luke

  • Come on, who would really pick Christa. She's a bitch to Clem and blames her for Omid's death.

    How about...Kenny or Christa!? (in case she ever comes back:)

  • You know, as a Kenny hater, I think this would be a very interesting choice actually!

    Do I let Kenny die, for the sake of all humanity? Or do I let him live and Sarita die, so he can live through that agony?

    OOOOooooo, I would SO love this choice! Both options just seem so wonderful! PLEASE DO THIS TELLTALE!

  • You know what else is too much for a little girl? Suturing her own arm, picking between two friends that she could save, and talking in front of groups. I get the feeling that Clem is pretty much like an adult at this point. She only has physical development left, and a tiny bit of mental development that is really just part of physical development.

    Christa isn't a bitch to Clem! Shes acting very hard and harsh on her, but she does that because she wants Clem to grow up and become stronger, so she can survive on her own if something should happen to her. (what eventually happened)

    Yes, she does blame her for Omid's death. I don't say that it is Clem's fault, but i understand Christa's reasonings behind that. Clem should have known better, she shouldn't have went into the toilet, without taking her gun with her!

  • He's been in exactly as many episodes as her (granted, one is an easter egg, but, y'know), and every time we see him, I wanna like him, but I just can't.

    THIS!

  • I'd save Sarita. But I don't think they would give us a choice. They would make us save Kenny to continue his downward spiral of a psyche story.

    i doubt it'll be choosing kenny over sarita. she's there just to make kenny snap. now, if the choice was sarah or sarita,.. i could see them making that an option. will you choose sarita because losing her will drive kenny over the edge, or sarah, who wants to be your friend, and trusts you (and losing her will make Carlos, Doctor Extraordinaire, very disappointed with you).

  • I think a much more difficult decision would be Luke or Sarita. Letting Sarita die would cause Kenny to snap I think. But a lot of people (I'm guessing) are too attached to Luke to just let him die to preserve what's left of Kenny's sanity.

  • I agree. Hes been around too long at this point. His character is getting a little... old. I surrendered so now hes mad at me again because I didn't do something he wanted me to do.

  • I'm gonna get a lot if down votes but if Saritas character plays a bigger role in future episodes I'd pick her. I can't stand Kenny if you side against him just once he just hates you.

  • Telltale still won't let us...

    Christa isn't a bitch to Clem! Shes acting very hard and harsh on her, but she does that because she wants Clem to grow up and become strong

  • Haha right! Fucking Kenny....

    Of course the moment Sarita is in harms way his arms fly in the air like they were filled with helium.

  • And the way he went out of his way to insult Nick and Luke. To me, it looked like he did it because I preferred to sit next to them, and he was jealous. Well boo-fucking-hoo.

    Seriously, why did he do that?

    I would chose Kenny, not just cause Kenny and my Lee were pals, but also because of how much shit Kenny, Lee, and Clementine went through.
    together. I'm my mind, it's the right thing to do!

  • I prefer a Kenny/Sarita rather than a Kenny/Luke. I'm not sure if I could choose between the latter.

  • Someone found one of those game text codes and in one of the episodes i forget which it said "Kenny crying" so expect Sarita's death soon. As for your theory, i like if but i would choose Kenny every time over the new characters

  • edited March 2014

    I would expect more of like Nick or Sarita
    if Nick died in your playthrough, it's Alvin or Sarita
    if Alvin died too, Sarita remains alive and you don't have to make any choice to save her.

    Saving Nick would result in Luke trusting and being more friendly towards you, not doing so will make Clem and Luke distant and break their friendship
    Saving Alvin would make Rebecca like Luke, trusting you more and loving, not Saving Alvin would result her hating you.
    Saving Sarita would of course result in Kenny being happy and loving you for saving her, not saving her would result in Kenny losing himself, become like Kenny post Duck and Katja death.

    What i think, is that if Nick and Alvin die in Episode 2, you don't have to make such hard decisions and will not make any characters mad at you, will only make them Sad.
    But it would be awesome if Telltale makes ultimate decision, where we have to choose between saving 3 people: Nick, Alvin or Sarita
    I would go for Nick, i promised Pete

  • I'd definitely save Kenny over Sarita. She seems like a sweet woman, but Kenny & I have history.

  • Telltale must have put in Sarita expecting everyone to think that she will die and cause Kenny to go into another meltdown, kinda like a deja vu situation with him. It could either be an epic troll move by Telltale - in which she will survive/outlive Kenny - or a very obvious plot device. I think a lot of people would expect the latter, as it is clear the wide majority would choose Kenny over Sarita, which makes it even more suspicious. Personally, I really can't see Kenny not being a main part of the story

  • I would save Kenny because I am slightly annoyed at the fact that hardly any of the original characters have survived so for that reason I would save him

  • Just because someone hates Kenny or like Lilly doesn't mean they're the opposite, you can like or hate both characters. I see Lilly and Kenny as two flawed but understandable characters. I'm not going to get into a debate here because there are already tons of threads about this.

    That decision would be way to easy...we don't know nothing about Sarita yet, exept the facts that she is a very nice person, alot like Katja

  • Why did he do that?

    Simple answer.

    He's an asshole.

  • Well I'm in the minority here but I'm saving Sarita. She's nice and isn't borderline psychotic like Kenny is. Kenny will more than likely die this season anyway, what kills him is the real question. I will probably get dislikes for this comment but it's the truth Kenny lovers.
