Season 3, will it happen?

edited October 2013 in The Walking Dead

Season 2 hasn't even came out yet and people are wondering, will there be a season 3 and to be honest I'm kind of curious too. I think it really depends on how season 2 ends I know I'm going really far fetched but I'm pretty curious. What do you think?

    I'm sure there will be a Season 3, unless Season 2 becomes a horrible flop.

    Telltale Games has been continously developing their franchises, even niché ones.
    So I think we'll at least see three seasons and more if there is demand for it.

    The ending of Season 2 should not matter when it comes to this, because during a worldwide zombie apocalypse there are many
    other persons and locations a season could focus on.

  • Okay, makes sense. I wonder if they'd carry Clem's story or pass on the torch

  • Well let's see. The TV Show has already confirmed a 5th season and Season 4 has just begun. The comics have no end in sight yet they are far ahead of the show. The game can very well be the same, a never ending zombie story.

  • Exactly! If something as hideous as that TV show can have a 5th season.... I mean, of course there will be a 3rd season.

  • TT would be stupid if they stopped at Season 2.. TWD is pretty much a cash cow for them, some people would just buy it for the name even if the gameplay was crap.

  • Maybe a good story, is a story which end ?

    Whatever group Clementine will join in season 2, I'd like them to have long term plans for an odyssey from Georgia to the Midwestern states.

    Montana is the promised land.

  • and why not a tour around the world while your there...

    I don't think telltale knows at this point, maybe when they're doing episode 5 of S2. I hope so tho.

    Are you implying I'm dumb enough to wish this only for the sake of traveling ?

    Midwest has the lowest density of population (= way less zombies than anywhere else) but lots of farming structures. Also Great Plains : you could see eventual traveling zombie herds (worst case scenario) from a huge distance and have the time to prepare diversion to direct them the way you want.

    This is the best hope for survivors who want to re-create something like a society and have long term plans.

    and why not a tour around the world while your there...

  • Looks to be that future seasons will carry on with Clementine's story. Maybe Clem is immune and the key to a cure of sorts.

    Who knows, hope I didn't ruin the whole premise there :P

  • I think if we see clementine in the wood it is not for nothing...
    One think that the WD universe teach us, is that zombies can gather in herd. And the best way to conduct a herd, is to go on open area !!
    So big plains and all is just the biggest trap just after the town if you want a place to stay...
    I think that the best way is to be in trees. Also the vision is not very good, so zombie can't follow you easily. In big plains, where you can watch zombie coming, you can also be spotted by them!

  • Then how come lee and Clem walked in a herd of zombies and didn't get attacked?!?

  • Depends on how successful season 2 is. But at this point, I don't see it being anything but.

    Remember, you can't just change your user name to "gimmeseason3" mid next year. ;)

  • Hold up the fun train.

    First of all, it all depends on season two's success. Season two was announced shortly right after episode two of season one was released. Considering it was sales which primarily prompted Telltale to make a sequel before the season was even out says a lot. Second of all, the story. Telltale can only keep continuing Clem's story for so long. There's got to be a point to stop in the future. I'd rather have season two end with an ending that is left to players than to butcher out another season for the reason of success.

    And this is where my opinion comes in. I didn't even want season two. I still kinda don't. But I'll play the first episode to see if it's up to my liking. I can't even fathom the idea of a season three right now. I'm sorry, but I can't.

  • are you dumb...
    they covered themself with zombie shit... it was camouflage...

    It all depends on the sucess of Season 2 if S2 does great than I'm sure there will be a season 3 I just hope when Telltale are done with TWAU and TWD S2. That they will get back to their other projects (Sam & Max) ect.

  • Practically speaking, it is very possible to do - TTG knows they have something here, which will bring in money - and that's a good thing, but from a gamer standpoint of less interest.

    From a more storytelling point of view it is even better. We can safely assume that the outbreak lasts for about 400 days before the world starts picking up the pieces and organise in a more serious manner. This from an outbreak that affected the entire world, and a helluva lot of people.

    In other words, there is so much potential here for several seasons I don't see a reason to ever end actually. Remember, even if the comic, the show and season 1 took place in Georgia, that doesn't mean everything needs to take place there - we have an entire world to play TWD in.

  • Well then they could do it again, hypocritical people sigh

    are you dumb... they covered themself with zombie shit... it was camouflage...

  • I just hope it will continue Clem's story. Changing the protagonist every season wouldn't make any sense...

    "wouldn't make any sense"

    It totally depends on what happens in season 2.

    Please calm down, Clem groupie.

    You don't even know the characters from next season yet. Some very interesting characters could emerge.

    I just hope it will continue Clem's story. Changing the protagonist every season wouldn't make any sense...

  • I hope that in future seasons they keep jumping a few years ahead of time for clem until the fourth were she would be in late teens our connection with her would be so strong...

  • edited November 2013

    That's the thing.

    Even if the game is officially no longer canon, it's still very problematic to leap years forward, since nobody knows Kirkman's long term plans for the general plot of the Walking Dead.

    So that can't happen. Best Telltale can do is skipping a few months now and then.
    That means after playing a season 2 with 9 year old Clementine (going on 10), in 3rd season she would be 10 going on 11. in a 4th season, 11 going on 12, etc....

    "our connection with her would be so strong"

    When she finally reaches 18 in season 11, Clemfans will finally be able to officially call her their waifu

    I hope that in future seasons they keep jumping a few years ahead of time for clem until the fourth were she would be in late teens our connection with her would be so strong...

    You do know there's an obvious solution to your problem, right? Refuse to play season two, and pretend it never existed.

  • Yes, definitely. This game is to good to stop.

  • Yeah, but WHY would a zombiecalypse go on for 11 years? One of humanity's biggest strengths is that we are quick to adapt to new conditions and strive forward. That's why we humans are actually here now, and not a long forgotten memory in the world's history.

    No, I'd say 400 days is a pretty good measurement on how long this disaster would go on before we'd picked up the pieces and started reorganising.

    Besides, I think Clem might die in season 2 since she was nowhere to be seen in 400 days. Just a thought.

    In that case, you can forget about future seasons! People (including me) would stop playing the game if Clem died or if her story would stop at some point. Imagine Tomb Raider without Lara Croft...

    Indeed. I know it's fashionable for most zombie movies and stories to have a misanthropic view of humanity, but come on: Zombies are dumber than bricks, and can be easily killed if you know how. All they have on their side is sheer numbers. A well-organized group of humans could take down massive scores of zombies if properly equipped. Even in the WD universe, where anyone can come back as a zombie whether or not you're bitten, there's only so long before SOMEBODY would catch on.

    That's another reason why I simply can't read the comics any more. You reach a point when you have to ask yourself, "Does the author really think the entire human race is THIS unbelievably incompetent?"

  • and the thousands of other sales that are made after clems death are going to be pointless cause you "and a few others" stopped playing?

  • There is actually a higher chance there is someone than there isn't. There is people out there who are immune to the HIV virus. So the infection in TWD may have someone who is also immune. Would be depressing to think there isn't :P

    Who knows what will happen, just have to wait and see.

    You're probably right! You're soo much smarter than me. Omg, it's not fair I wanna be smart :/

    So sick of people acting like their opinion is a fact.
