THIS THREAD CONTAINS SPOILERS. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNEDAlright, everyone knows the biggest problem with telltale games is that choices generally don't matter. Telltale just doesn't have the budget to generate completely separate stories based on the choices people make. Generally, all telltale did was have some small changes within individual episodes, and maybe a few large determinant characters over the course of the game. While we don't have many determinant events at the end of the episode, we've got plenty of determinant characters, and I honestly think that Telltale has the potential to do a bunch of amazing things with season 2 if they want to use this. So, just post which characters survived for you by the end of the episode, and we'll see how Telltale might try to make a cohesive story out of this.
Group 1: Asher has received a knife in the back, a greatsword through the gut, an arrow wound, and probably some other injuries I've forgotten. He's currently with Talia (who I'm fairly sure survives no matter what), and Gwyn. I killed the traitor (Duncan). Royland apparently sacrificed himself to get Asher out of Ironrath, but his death was never shown. Group 2: Beshka managed to escape with Ryon. I'm pretty sure this is one of the few things that remains constant regardless of the choices you make. Group 3: Garred is with the Forrester bastards and with replacement little sister Sylvi, defending the north grove. He's on good terms with her, considering he din't rip out Cottor's heart for blood magic. Group 4: Asher kicked Griff into a fire then killed him. Ludd managed to survive after Mom ruined my cancilation of mission "kill Ludd". Ludd survived and sacked Ironrath. Harrys was killed by Asher, who was assisted by Mom. Group 5: Mira died rather than marry Morgryn. Tom's alive, Sera still has a job and is marrying Tarwick. Could we have used the torch to club Morgryn? That would have been satisfying.

Group 1: Rodrik, Talia, and Royland, who was my traitor. Group 2: Beskha and Ryon (This always happens) Group 3: Gared, Slyvi, Josera, and Elsera are heading towards Ironrath. Group 4: Gryff's in control of Ironrath after I decapitated Ludd in his own camp Group 5: Mira married Morgryn and still works for Margery, Tom's dead, and Sera got fired but she's still marrying Tarwick.

Group 1: Rodrik is with Talia and Royland after being badly wounded from the war. Group 2: Ryon was saved from Gryff by Beskha after I fought Ludd.
Group 3: Gared, after ending Cotter's suffering, is heading South to return to Ironrath with Slyvi, Josera and Elsera.
Group 4: Ludd was decapitated by Rodrik and Gryff managed to survive in Ironrath. For now.
Group 5: Mira married Morgryn and was dismissed from Margery, Tom's dead and Sera still works for Margaery and is marrying Tarwick.

I honestly could see how Tom or Mira as the next protagonist could work. What if Tom worked for Morgryn? That way, both Mira and Tom end up wherever Morgryn goes, just in very different circumstances.

Rodrik survived with Talia and Duncan Tuttle my Sentinel. Beskha made it out with Ryon thank god. Gared is coming back with to the North with the twin bastards. Gryff was executed for fucking with Rodrik for three episodes, and Ludd lost one of his few remaining sons. Mira bravely told Morgryn no, and died with honor and grace like Ned Stark.

So I wound up having Gwyn at the end instead of Royland?
I regret everything.

I regret everything. At least he died with honor.

Is it wrong to consider changing my decision in Ep. 5 to killing the traitor just to keep my sentinel alive?

Unless your Sentinel is Duncan.

Group 1 Was Rodrik, ended up with Talia and Royland (mah boi royland, my sentinel. i dont regret making him sentinel best sentinel ever. Group 2 Yeah pretty sure beskha saves ryon no matter what. She saved him while I fought Gryff and then cut his head off Group 3 Gared marched towards Ironrath with north grove people. I dunno if that was a good decision since Gared's a deserter which means he might die so Group 4 Chose Gryff over Ludd, decapitated the little shit and Ludd ended up living and took over Ironrath. Bastard. Elissa killed by Harys cause if you're Rodrik you dont have a choice on poisoning or abmushing ludd, you just gotta battle it out Group 5 Mira was killed for not marrying Morgryn. Can't let my bro Tom die after all he's done for me.

Seriously, I don't think the determinant thing will be that big of a problem for Telltale.
The Ludd and Gryff thing can be treated as a Doug/Carley thing because no matter what, one of them ends up living, you can't kill both in ep6. So this means it shouldn't be too hard to have them in s2
Same with the people who saves Rodrik/asher and talia. You either have Duncan, Royland or Gwyn.
And they did ok with Rodrik/Asher in this episode, they can keep Rodrik/Asher as PC for season 2, just different dialogue choices that would suit Asher or suit Rodrik and other lines.
I doubt we'll have Mira as PC for season 2. Whether she survives or not, she's not on the main menu after you beat ep6 (it's just Gared and Rodrik/Asher) Maybe we'll visit her again if she survived sometime in S2 as Rodrik/Asher or whoever we play as
Gared shouldn't be too hard, he lives no matter what (im actually shocked he lived, i was thinking 6 was his death for sure) I think Telltale might just make the people who chose to stay at North Grove have a situation that makes them leave so they end up having to march to Ironrath. Yea, that'd be disappointing for those who chose to stay but I doubt Telltale will not have Gared in s2 at all just cause of that. They could also do the other way around and if you chose to march to Ironrath you see it occupied by whitehills so they turn back and go to North Grove which would suck so pls no
So Basically what I think would work about determinants
Treat Gryff/Ludd like a Doug/Carley thing
The thing with Gwyn/Duncan/Royland ends up being something like if you're with Gwyn, maybe she eventually heads back to Highpoint and your sentinel reappears not dead. I dunno, this is where it starts getting complex and Im too lazy to think of ways they could do all this

Wait, what? Why do you say that?
