All of you are guys and you're all acting like you know EVERYTHING that goes on in a female tween's head. Guess what guys, you don't so shut u… morep and stop acting like you do. Girls are ALWAYS thinking about love, Clem probably more so, she's desperate to find something that will give her warmth and happiness, even if that's just for a short period of time.
Shakespeas?
Also, it's still wrong after edit. It's Shakespeare.
Anyways, I definitely agree with you. I thought Macbeth was pretty lame as well. Julius Caesar and Hamlet were probably my favorites.
That is true, but I think I can speak for a large amount of them. You're right though, not all of them but it's the mind of a young girl that's going through puberty. It crossed everyone's mind during that time.
No one is arguing that she is incapable of having a crush, they are debating whether or not it would be appropriate for a crush to be explored in the game. I personally don't care, as long as it is well done (it wasn't in the TV series).

Ok well to the "Left Behind" spoiler thanks alot lol & it seems like a happy kiss? Elly looked like she just wanted to have her first kiss? That has to be it (:
It's not that I was annoyed by it perse. I just remembered how I used to do the same mistake when I was younger. No one ever told me what I was doing wrong until I eventually found out by myself. Words cannot describe how stupid I felt, so I wanted to save this guy the embarrassment. He should not relive the same pain I had had to go through, lol.
Who gives a shit? It's not like he's writing a masters dissertation. Could one of you please explain the psychology of someone who feels a need to correct tiny grammatical errors?
Is it an OCD thing?
Not taking the piss, genuinely interested.
Yeah I know that, I was replying to other people who were saying she never thinks about things like that. I wouldn't mind seeing some relationships explored in the game, but Clem wouldn't be my first choice as someone to get involved in love.

Dunno, sounds weird for a 11yo in the apocalypse to be caring about a boyfriend b-but i want clem to be happy
As long as telltale doesn't pull off this fucking bullshit right here
How to ruin a character.jpg
You're using the wrong dot, it's not an apostrophe. ''''''''''''''''''' Those are apostrophes. Does your keyboard not have the correct symbol for it? I notice you're not using a normal O either.
I've wondered this myself. But, honestly, I don't think the cuteness of a relationship between 11 year olds fits the tone of TWD, specially Season 2. And I don't know if a crush fits Clementine as a charcter. Besides, most of the still-alive grown ups are dicks. If we ever get a 16 year old Clem in a future season, then maybe I see it happening. But right now, I don't.
If Clementine is given a possible love interest, I am fine with it as long as it is achieved by choice of the player and avoidable. If someone wants to have a relationship as Clementine let them, but don't force everyone to.
I thought it was the story of a little girl being kidnapped and developing stockholm syndrome with a grown man that routinely beats her and pays her for sex.
Henceforth not something I want to happen to Clementine.
Nothing wrong with a crush at Clementines age. Most if not all children develop them at some point, sometimes even towards much older people. Would I want to see it in this game though? No, probably not.
Unless of course it became relevant to the plot. For example, would she save the person that's most useful to the group, or would she save the person she has developed a crush for.
Trouble is if telltale were to go down this route, I bet there would be dozens of threads popping up calling whoever Clementine has a crush on a pedophile. Looking back at some of the threads that's already been closed, it seems many people in America think there are child abusers round every corner. Makes me wonder what would happen in that country if a man saw a child Clementines age in distress, and out of concern went to the girl to see if he could help. Next thing you know there would be a lynch mob after him, wanting to hang him from the nearest tree. Really is a sad world we live in sometimes.

I'd have to completely disagree. It worked well with Bill, it was a funny reveal and was great comedic relief. Ellie and Riley wasn't supposed to be funny. A hug doesn't have nearly the same effect as a kiss. Why would we be more invested in their relationship exactly?
Personally I don't even see this kiss as showing Ellie as homosexual. I see it as two friends who care very deeply for each other. We all go through a phases. That is the only ambiguity they should have left for us.
Yes. Well, more specifically the kiss in general.
I have no problem with characters being gay. Hell, Bill was gay and I thought he was awes… moreome. I just thought his sexuality being a mystery was a pretty interesting aspect to his tough, macho personality. I liked how they didn't make it so blatantly obvious. His relationship to Frank gives you hints and teases and really makes you think, "Is he actually gay?" Then we find out he is when Bill leaves, never to be seen again and Ellie's revealed to have taken his gay magazine. I thought it was really clever how they executed that.
They could've done the same with Ellie. Make her relationship to Riley a mystery. From what they showed, all I saw was two best friends making the last of their time together. If she did have feelings for Riley fine, but if you do nothing to hint this and have the two just kiss right out of nowhere, it just ruins the mystery. Maybe a long, tear-jerking hug would have b… [view original content]
I agree, just because she kissed a girl, doesn't mean she is gay. Many people are very narrow minded when it comes to these kinds of things. Oh and whoever spoiled that for all of us, please use spoiler tags next time.

Made perfect sense. It gets beter when you get out of school and start making choices that can affect who you are around day in and day out. Just make sure you stick to doing things you enjoy and you will find people who enjoy doing those things also! This probably doesn't mean much coming from a random person on a forum, but it's true.
Yeah im just looking for people that aren't afraid to be themselves. I cant even stand to be around my friends these days cause it seems like… more everybody my age is just a follower lately. I cant even speak my mind in a group setting around them cause its like they have to all agree with whatevers the popular idea around them is at the time though I know some of them don't actually agree with what they are defending just from having one on one discussions with them. I get along so much better with people in their late 20's and older just because they have something more meaningful to tell me when im looking for advice other than "Damn man, that sucks."
Thanks for the words of encouragement, and love the phrasing "odd man out". That's indeed the story of my life as well.
Tired and getting lazy so I apologize if a lot of that didn't make sense lol
Exactly my point against it.
Awkward teenage romances?
Ugghhh.
I remember being 14. It might feel terribly important to the two with the crush but to onlookers it's vomit inducing.
I graduated 3 years ago and I quickly went from the immature kid I used to be to the person that doesn't recognize that kid any more that I am today. Probably why I feel like a stranger to my friends lately. Though I did fall off track in my life there for a little bit. I basically hit a reset button on my life just a few months ago and hit a point where I don't know where to go from here. But I know one thing, when I figure out what im supposed to do with myself there isn't a person, place, or thing that's gonna stop me.
You've oddly enough gave me better advice and motivation than the people in my life that should be telling me these things.

Way to generalize every female tween in existence.
Thx dude.Medieval English isn't really my strong point. Old English makes more sense to me than those extra e's.
Hamlet and Caesar are probably the best.
Henry V has it moments
Titus Andronicus was cool, but the movie was better.
Lolz MacBeth yeah that blows
You wouldn't know. I'm telling you from experience, it's how it goes.
Because everyone is the same, amirite?
That is true, but I think I can speak for a large amount of them. You're right though, not all of them but it's the mind of a young girl that's going through puberty. It crossed everyone's mind during that time.

Don't ask me why, it just does.
NO!

if they did do something like that, her love interest, telltell would pull a carley on us and kill her in the next 10 minutes :P
I SO loved that scene.I shipped them on first sight!
Die,demon that controls this user!Ok,just kidding.But NO.
I dunno why but i feel like Sarah will end up getting a sorta crush on Clementine for whatever reason...

I don't think they'll pull this on us again.
I think they mean they like buildup to that kind of reveal in a game. Lol.
I was thinking more along the lines of Sarah liking her and Clem only thinking of her as a friend.
Off topic, i found that scene utterly adorable.
If Clementine is given a possible love interest, I am fine with it as long as it is achieved by choice of the player and avoidable. If someone wants to have a relationship as Clementine let them, but don't force everyone to.
People really don't understand when they're being fucked with, do they?

I know.I ship Rellie.But i also don't think a Clarah or a Sarentine(?) wouldn't work.Ever.
Well thanks for responding, but we already solved the problem yesterday!
Ding ding ding, we have a winner.
Ellie is 13 when she kisses Riley.
When you first meet her she mentions she is 14.
As Red said, 11 to 13 isn't much of a difference.

Aye!
I'm sorry he ruined it for you guys!
"Don't go." And then she rips off the tag. Omg I almost died! Loved the entire scene!

Now if you are put it that way. I dont want it too!! .
You had to deal with someone who didn't speak english very well. A fucking tragedy.
I know!
Did you miss the part that I put in parenthesis?
I said I DON'T want a std. lol
