I'm a 32 year old Native American male that doesn't care who the playable character in a game is as long as the character is interesting and t… morehe game is fun. And I personally think that playing as Clem will add a unique experience to an already unique game.
And what's up with shoving females down our throats, why couldn't it have been a boy?
Did you think you would get cheap sentiments out of it being a girl?
You do realize that the majority of players are male and do not wish to play as girls...
As opposed to the thousands of games that "break immersion" by forcing women to play as male characters? Its not immersion breaking, if you can get over yourself. Anyone with a halfway decent imagination can insert themselves into any character. Do you have this issue with aliens, robots, or animals?
Please. Only little boys fall apart when they play as a girl.
Oh and despite my avatar, I'm male. Good characters, are good characters.
@Vainamoinen
LOL, if the gaming industry were to listen to you it would go bankrupt within 2 years.
I can't stand immersion breaking games… more where you are forced to play as a female like Mirror's Edge, Tomb Raider, Transistor, etc.. It completely puts you out of it and makes you feel like an observer.
And playing as a little girl is even worse than that, developers here are completely clueless.
i would say that for a male immersion/identifying standpoint, clementine being so young is actually advantageous, because the capabilities and experiences of a young girl wouldn't be that much different to a young boy, everybody has been young at one point.
i understand a preference to playing the same gender as your own in games when you have the choice, because when i can, i create male characters with magical powers, because in real life i am a man with magical powers, and i feel it is easier to just play me (if i was in the game world) if the character is like me.
however i think playing clementine is clearly the best choice in the walking dead and i have nothing against playing female characters in games generally, if the game is good the game is good, not every game is designed to be played as if the protagonist is the player in a game world, sometimes it better to see what the character you are guiding will say and do.
Okay this is my first post on TTC but I was reading this read and had to join in
I'm a 31 year old female player. I'm old enough to have played on a com 64, Spectrum Sinclair 128k (big geeky high five if you've played on one), master system, NES, etc and I love the new ideas coming out of TTC. I am sick of male dominated games where females are big chested sexual objects. It's time gaming caught up with the rest of the world and not just cater to one particular demographic. One of the reasons I started to watch TWD was how it was very different from what was on Tv (not catering to the masses and really made me think) at the time and what drew me in was the tough choices having to been made in order to survive. TTG have managed to bring this to the gaming world and I love it.
I played Lee an African American male make from the US which is quite opposite to me being a white female from UK and I identified and feel in love with the character from the beginning (not to mention doing so with every other male game out there). Yes I felt Clem was annoying (and a little judgey from an 8 year old lol) in the beginning, but by the end of episode 5 I was a Clem fan ( and misty eyed as well.......................alright I balling my eyes out, there I admitted it).
What most are saying here quartrog is that if all games were what you wanted, people like us would have nothing to play, while you have most of the gaming world is catered to your view (and a quite 'angry at females' view it is), let us have TWD, let us individuals have this corner of our world where games are intelligent and TTG are trying to do something new and not dumbed down for the masses.
I know my little post wont change your view but I'm guessing from your post that you are a young(ish) man. Your views may very we'll change as you grow older as you experience more of the world as us older people have. It's not all shoot-them-up male games out there when you have to deal with your own TWD life choices in the real world. I don't kill zombies for a living (sigh) but I've had to make tough choices (for me) in order to 'survive'. No not life or death choices but ones where my heart and soul feel at times they have been put through the grinder on high speed. Because of this I don't want typical games, I did when I was younger but not now that I'm older. I want my world view to be challenged and change and as I love gaming and books I look to them to provide me with nourishment.
Well I'm done all, sorry for the long post. Lol. 'Game on people'
I started out gaming with an ATARI 2600 ... an NES followed 1987, but my first Commodore was a 128 already. I had to share all three systems with my brother, who had the tendency to open things and 'repair' them...
My 1993 AMIGA 600 however was all mine. It was broken in 1997... by a friend of my brother.

I think that is just what a lot of people want those types of games,they just want to mindlessly kill things,I used to play games like that all the time(well I still played Fallout,fable,elder scrolls etc.),until I played TWD game,I realised how awesome a game like that can be and if I still had a working PS3 I would have went out and bought Heavy Rain and Beyond Two Souls.
Wow, very interesting indeed! I didn't know any of this stuff. It's insane how much thought is being put into it and how much the marketing outcome differentiates from country to country. I guess I am lucky - when my brother and I were kids, we started playing video games together and no one ever gave it a second thought. We both had gameboys, the first PS1 our parents bought was for the both of us and we spent equal time playing Worms Armageddon or Tomb Raider or w/e. I have no idea why parents nowadays would force those kinds of stereotypes on their children. .
Polygon recently came out with a really interesting article about the history of the industry and the stereotype of video games being for boys. Definitely worth a read if you've got the time.
Thanks for the game suggestion of heavy rain. I have an xbox 360 and buying ps3 pre-owned for Xmas. Got beyond two souls, the last of us. Been looking for TWD type games to play. Will go out and grab this one

One of the reasons it took me insanely long to even consider playing TWD was exactly that. Even though my friend recced it and promised it was different, I was so certain that at some point inside the game it'd end up being the same boring shit where all you have to do is shoot zombies and mindlessly roam around looking for supplies and I just found it so so uninspiring. I didn't want my opinion of TWD to change because of a crappy game.
Um yea, not a big fan of David Cage or any of his games BUT, they are different and interesting, I've tried them, I want to try new things but sometimes new things don't work.

It was my neighbour who had the com 64. My older sister had the spectrum and then I had a master system 2 (bigger in Europe then us) and it was alllllllllll mine. I still have the thing in huge attic and I can still complete sonic the hedgehog in under 45 min with all 6 crystals, 12 lives and 6 continue. Of course you see continues anymore. Lol
My little sister however is 9 years younger and when I had a game boy she begged and cried to play it but I said no because she had the habit of throwing game pads at the floor whenever she lost her life. She then proceed to undermine my ownership and went to a higher power (mum) and of course the high power said let her have a go. Within minutes she lost her life and through my game boy on the floor and broke it. Gotta love siblings

Just like you, I was tempted to create an account and join the conversation.
I'm still young, so I don't know any of the consoles you are talking about. I did had a gameboy a long time ago, I would play all day long while my younger sister kept asking me to play. She was so desperate to play that one day she told she would make my bed a whole month if she could play for an hour. I fell so bad for her. You said it, Gotta love siblings
Total big geeky high five

This is your second thread in which you state how much you dislike The Walking Dead. If you don't like it, may I ask why you're hear, on a dis… morecussion board for the game, talking about it?
As to your post... they made Clementine the protagonist in this one because the vast majority of people have grown very attached to her and want to see what happens next to her. It makes good creative - and business - sense.
Ive been playing video games since I was little and I got the taste from my mother so I am always glad to see other girl gamers around. We have a variety of tastes not just female-centric ones.
Polygon recently came out with a really interesting article about the history of the industry and the stereotype of video games being for boys. Definitely worth a read if you've got the time.
Being a middle aged white woman, I had no problem playing as a 30 something black man. I wouldn't care what the age, race, or gender of a character is, as long as it is well written. This seems like a whiny complaint from a little boy. It's a game; it's not like someone is actually coming into your home and dressing you up as a little girl. Don't play if you don't want to, nobody will care.
I think you should not have any kids. If you think CLEMENTINE is a brat and annoying, I definitely recommend NO children with you because you wont have the last of it especially if they are yours... I know you actually like Clementine, but you just are desperate for attention. I think your her biggest fan. Clementine and Lee are seriously the best gaming characters ever!
I'd have to say SKIP HEAVY RAIN! The storyline has so many plot holes it's not funny. Many of us wondered how many different writers worked on it because it simply wasn't a cohesive story. Also the controls don't react at times you really need them to.
Thanks for the game suggestion of heavy rain. I have an xbox 360 and buying ps3 pre-owned for Xmas. Got beyond two souls, the last of us. Been looking for TWD type games to play. Will go out and grab this one
more misogyny. first we have someone complaining about female nudity, but not female severed heads. now we have people complaining about playing a girl.
Telltale creates such believable characters it shouldn't even matter if you are playing someone not like you. Hell, I felt like I was Lee and never thought for one second I couldn't be. And this is coming from a tiny white girl lol.
My biggest problem with playing as Clem is the fact that she is so young and weak.
I know I know it gives us something new, but still, one of my major gripes about season 1 was the fact that Lee was clumsy as all hell and seemed to get his ass kicked every other few minutes.
I mean seriously, playing as a girl is whatever, playing as a little girl though....I mean come on how is a little girl gonna do some of the stuff that Lee did? Like being able to chop through a guys leg, or bashing zombies heads in with a wrench. I mean I get it that I'm not playing Dead Rising or something but damn....there's gotta be a little bit of that action right? The kind of stuff that requires being stronger than a dainty little 9 year old girl....and also I imagine the conversations not being as good either, honestly a 9 year old doesn't have the same conversational aptitude or life experience that a college professor convicted of murdering his wife did.
Reeeeaaally was hoping that I'd somehow end up being Molly...
It's funny that it's only the guys that seem to have some issue playing a character that's the opposite gender.
Playing Lee didn't feel strange at all to me. And I've never had problems with playing male characters before.
I wish I could understand what makes you guys so against playing a female.
As for the "Clementine could have been a boy" thing, I feel that would just make her too similar to Carl Grimes.
So if you want a little boy protagonist, you can always just read the comics or watch the show...

People seem to fail to realize that something like living in a post apocalyptic world would make children start maturing way before their age.… more
Anyways, ever been hit in the head by a 9 year old girl with a baseball bat or a hammer? You should try that sometime... It totally won't hurt at all.
Carl is even more annoying in my opinion. For me it's a matter of physical strength and age. A 9 year old girl is not capable of half the physical things that I liked from the first game. Jumping from the bell tower, cutting through the guys leg, holding back any number of doors, etc. etc.
It's funny that it's only the guys that seem to have some issue playing a character that's the opposite gender.

Clem didn't do any of that in one hit, why don't you stand around with your head held in the right height 'til a 9 year old girl [or 11 now] bashes you with a bat or steel hammer with all her strenght for about 5 or 6 times?
I'm pretty damn sure it would break something. Children CAN hurt you if they want to.
How does it feel to have 84 people(and counting) hate you?. Why the hell would you come on a forum full of Telltale game fans and slag off the games they make?. Are you a troll or just a complete fucking retard? BTW " playing as a little girl (puke) " way too sound mature.
You're right. I'm male too and almost exclusively play female characters, sometimes because I like their VAs better than male ones. I.E. Mass Effect. Other times, they're just more pleasant to look at. Sometimes it's thrilling to get a slightly different perspective from playing an opposite gender. I have no trouble in assuming female roles, nor male ones. Hell, I loved playing as Lee. And I love playing as Clementine.
TWD Season 2 provides us with very interesting protagonist, one that I'm already emotionally invested in. And so far, it's been pretty nice playing as Clementine. And I'm extremely interested to see how all of this will pan out.
...
I think I know what OPs problem is but view his thread nothing more than a desperate need of an attention, when there's plenty of other games in the market to suit his low imagination and "special" requirements for a protagonist.
As opposed to the thousands of games that "break immersion" by forcing women to play as male characters? Its not immersion breaking, if you ca… moren get over yourself. Anyone with a halfway decent imagination can insert themselves into any character. Do you have this issue with aliens, robots, or animals?

Ok, you are right. Obviously I'm mistaken about the fact that a 9 year old girl is as physically capable as a grown man.
