    I can confirm that the man at the end of the comic con teaser trailer is NOT Nate from 400 days. He's a brand new character.

    -Kent

    Season 3 ends with Clem going to get AJ and her knowing that she has a safe place and a friend to return to when she finds him but season 4

  • Walter has returned...CONFIRMED!!

    I love a lot of scenes but I don't want to spoil them! For a very minor not-spoiler though, there's a really fun bit where Clementine plays a card game with the kids at the school to get to know them. It's the kind of fun character building scene that I love having in our games.

    I love all our weird children, but I have a special spot in my heart for Louis. He's got some really funny lines, and he's just a sweet goofball.

    -Kent

    Hello Kent! Thanks for this AMA and I have a silly question - out of all these teens you created as new characters for this season, who's your personal favourite and why (without spoilers)?

  • I honestly love the sound of that, can't wait to play it.

  • That's everything I wanted him to be thank you.

    There will be scenes about AJ bonding with the new cast of survivors, and learning things about the world from before he was born.

    -Kent

    So this might be considered as a spoiler question, but I thought i would ask anyway. So Aj has been shown to be curious of the world befo

  • Ok Kent this is more like it...Character building....Character is the center of TWD...if we never learn about people how do we feel anything for when you meanies kill them in horrible ways...Please don't kill Clem!

    No. I just love bricks.

    Hey Kent! The brick in the first game-play video and a bow in the SDCC teaser are the references to The Last Of Us?

    TFS is built in the Telltale Tool.
    There may be outfit changes based on story, but there is not a system to customize Clem's style or car.
    There are stat screens similar to the ones we had in Batman! I think they look even cooler than those did, thanks to the excellent work of our UI artists.
    The rest is spoilers :)

  • That sounds like a fantastic character-driven scene! I can't wait to play it!

    We have an awesome team of animators with very creative (and horrifying) thoughts that use their awesome skills to make the sickest zombie kills imaginable.

    -Kent

    How does the team go about making creative and unique walker kills?

  • I can imagine TFS now being just as good as the first season.

  • I am dying over here from all the Louis love this AMA is giving us.

  • YEEET BOI WALT'S BACK

    Walter has returned...CONFIRMED!!

  • mostlypoptartsmostlypoptarts ModeratorFormer Telltale Staff

    1) I can confirm queer character(s) in the season!

    re cute: Aw shucks :3

    -Kent

    * Any queer or (non-Clem) mentally disabled characters currently planned for this season? * Any last names or heights for new or old characters? At least for Clem? Y'all're cute!

  • that sounds really cool. Oh, you designers with your creative ideas.

  • There may be outfit changes based on story

    Outfit changes in regards to game choices? That sounds interesting.

    That's all from me for this time! Thanks for all your awesome questions, sorry I didn't have time to get to more of them. I hope you're all looking forward to the game!!

    Signing off-

  • Yes, holy crap the hype levels are too high. Can't take it.

  • Thank you for answering both of my questions!

    I actually have one last question to ask though.

    Will the end credits music return this season like it was in S2?

  • He was real close to my question. Oh well, hope we can do this again before august 14.

  • Ok to recap from what he said...Walter is back and Chuck is back....Clem has no math skills...and the team is filled with sick minded people who animate dead human beings and have them dessecrated for our amusement.

  • 20 days. HYPE

    Yes, as evident by your previous comment.

  • I was asking about how they come up with the story and also some little things like Clem's surname and the state that s4 will be set in.

  • *...and he's just a sweet goofball *

    Looks like AJ's title has been replaced and another ship is about to set sail.

  • Well he did say the story was about the concept of home..fighting for it for yourself and the people you love. Her Surname is unknown...hopefully we learn it. As for the state...well if Clem dies I will be in the state of denial lol....but it looks like Virginia from the license plates.

  • You could feel the passion on that final episode. An excellent series from start to finish, and one of the best jokers of all time

    You're welcome! And just that I love Telltale Batman with all my heart, and if anyone hasn't played Enemy Within please do, so that you might also fall in love with that green haired murder boy. -Kent

  • Not sure if trolling or serious..... Hmmmm....
