To clarify, we mean it's not going to show people from past seasons meeting present Clementine, right? Because there's absolutely going to be flashbacks to Lee and Kenny and all that. If it flashes back to previous seasons, then no, that doesn't count. I'd say if it's a new flashback made just for the teaser/Season 4, then that counts as a win for us. Is that fair?

Unless it's like, an empty area, or a frozen scene from previous seasons, those don't count

Unless it's like, an empty area, or a frozen scene from previous seasons, those don't count yeah, only if it's a new flashback with characters from previous seasons, or a character from a previous season in the present. I'm banking on Telltale wanting to come right out the gate with some fan service to try and bring back in some people who left bc of ANF, and also the fact that we aren't half a year out from the premiere like with the ANF teaser, I'm guessing it's gonna premiere around June, maybe a little before. Pretty sure they're already working on Episode Two, so maybe even May?

Pretty sure they're still aiming for Summer, and I think they've already started writing Episode Two based on some of the writers' twitter accounts, tho I could be wrong

Gary Whitta who worked on S1 and is working on S4 says that it's "coming soon", now I know this is TTG but I don't see them calling 6 months soon, so I'm pretty sure this is out in May and TWAUS2 will probably release in October.

I'm hoping Gary Whitta gets a shot at redemption in the eyes of the fans. The main problems with Around Every Corner are design. The writing is great: Kenny and Ben's arcs are great, there's some great stuff with Christa and Omid, the "Ask not for whom the bell tolls" line is fantastic and sets up the main theme of the episode is a really cool way, Crawford is - from a writing standpoint - really cool, and there're some pretty awesome choices(whether or not to bring Clem to Crawford, dropping Ben, etc.). It's just the design that drags it down. The first person shooting bits are... weird. The sewer puzzle is slow and a little pointless, walking back and forth around Crawford is really boring... the only thing that works from a design standpoint in my eyes is the climbing the stairs section, because it is legitimately really tense trying to break Lee's leg free while keeping the walkers at bay. But to get back at the point at hand, yeah, I'm thinking Walking Dead will premiere in May or June(like I said possibly May because Telltale almost never announces who the lead writers are for episodes in advance, so since Mary Kenney has said publically on twitter that she's the lead writer on Episode Two, it seems like writing has started on Episode Two), with TWAU2 premiering in the Fall sometime.

Dropping Ben is probably the best choice in the entire telltale catalogue. Not a single choice has as much buildup, payoff, or thematic weight as that one choice, except arguably the ending of Batman TEW episode 4.

Not a single choice has as much buildup, payoff, or thematic weight as that one choice, except arguably the ending of Batman TEW episode 4. I'll agree. It's not something that was thought up at the last minute. The entire episode is built around that choice. I remember Whitta saying by the end there will be a choice where you will say outloud don't make me choose. I'd say he's right because I had to think the first time I got it.

Y'know what? I'm gonna go ahead and give a vote to... uh, "Vincet"... oops.
I just remembered while playing TWDS1 Ep1 that it was confirmed by Kirkman a little while back that Vince is canonically Glenn's older brother, and I just don't think it makes a whole lot of sense for him to disappear and then we never see him again.
So, either he's gonna show up, maybe with some of the other 400 Days folk, for this final season, or Kirkman's gonna bring him into the comics once the Season is over and all of the Telltale characters, locations, and storylines become available for Skybound and AMC to use. (or heck, maybe even AMC will bring him in. They're also getting the rights for all of the Telltale Walking Dead stuff when the final season is over apparently? So, that might be interesting)

Holy shit for real? That's actually pretty cool. Wish more of their cross overs were like that and not just "HEY GUYS LOOK ITS JESUS ISNT HE BADASS".

Holy shit for real? That's actually pretty cool. Wish more of their cross overs where like that and not just "HEY GUYS LOOK ITS JESUS ISNT HE BADASS". Yeah, I don't know if it was originally planned, or at least if it was initially canon, but Kirkman confirmed it in Letter Hacks a while ago. I think maybe it was always meant to be the case, what with Vince killing that guy to "protect his brother", and the fact that it's hinted at that Glenn stole cars for extra cash outside of his pizza delivery job(actually, I think maybe this was hinted at in the TV show but outright confirmed in the comics?), not to mention Glenn was one of the two comic cameos from Season One. Telltale probably made it more subtle than the thing with Lily though in case Kirkman wanted to contradict the canon they created like he did with Lily. Thankfully, in this case, he seems to have fully accepted it into the Skybound Canon, so maybe now that that's the case Telltale might want to bring Vince back? If not though, there's no way he won't show up in either the comics or TV once the final season is over. Maybe in the TV show they'll make it so he's part of Magna's group? Probably not, though, the premiere of Season 9 and the end of Season 4 will be too close for them to plan something like that.

IIRC Kirkman's been hinting at one of Michonne's daughters appearing in the comics, so Vince might be part of the same community.

IIRC Kirkman's been hinting at one of Michonne's daughters appearing in the comics, so Vince might be part of the same community. She already has, and the most recent storyline has really centered around her. So far, no sign of Vince. I think Kirkman will wait until the final season ends until he includes any other Telltale characters in the comics.
