Finished the second season of The Walking Dead. I thought the ending was a little weak, and season two was definitely inferior to season one. Still a good game, but the cast of characters this time around just couldn't hold up to the group from the first game. Lee alone was better than any character from season two, and I got annoyed at how everyone kept asking Clementine, who is like twelve years old, to solve every goddamn problem. It's just insanely unrealistic. I like Clementine and all, but she's just not a good choice for the playable character.
I did find it interesting how differently the end of this season can go depending on the choices you make at the end. I talked to one of my TF2 buddies right after finishing (he finished it a few days ago) and his ending was literally entirely different. Going to put the rest in spoiler tags.
I'm curious how they will start season three with such different finales depending on the choices you made. I may actually want to play through season two making different decisions just to see what happens for season three, which I have to imagine is a lock at this point.
Regardless, Telltale really needs to introduce some better characters next season, because that was this one's major weakness.

I chose to shoot Kenny and save Jane, and then to forgive Jane. He chose to let Kenny kill Jane and then to shoot Kenny. I ended up going back to the Howe's store from episode three with Jane and the baby and deciding to set up camp there. Three other survivors showed up and I decided to let them in. His ending was much like the ending of season one, with Clementine (and the baby) in a field. A herd of zombies approached and she found a corpse and coated herself with entrails. It ended with her walking through the herd.
