That said, Hutchison takes a guess at how the final season might have changed had Lee still been among the living: “I don’t know if he would have stayed at that boarding school. “ I feel like because of how much she maintains of her connection and her relationship with Lee, I don’t really see it turning out too differently. “I think a lot of the decisions that she makes and the direction she goes throughout all the seasons really represent what Lee would have also chosen to do,” says Hutchison, who doesn’t think Clem’s journey would have changed much had Lee survived the first season.

I haven’t really experienced feeling like I would do anything differently.”įor Clem, one of the moments that linger with her throughout the series is the death of Lee, which is still regarded by some fans as Telltale’s The Walking Dead‘s most shocking scenes. It was “like coming home,” according to Hutchison, who felt the shock of Telltale’s demise not just as a performer but as a fan of the games.īeing both the voice of Clem and a gamer, Hutchison has had a lot of time to think about many of the series’ biggest moments and decisions, such as the fate of the unstable Kenny, whom she chose to spare in her playthrough.īut Hutchison doesn’t really linger on her decisions in the game: “ The stories are so nailed down that I haven’t ever had moments where I’ve been like, ‘Eh, I wouldn’t have done this,’ or ‘I don’t know why they chose to do this or leave this in here or take this out or kill this person.’ I just feel like they nailed that story down so well.

But ultimately, I just feel so completely satisfied and so happy for the fans. “I didn’t know how I was gonna feel when the episode released. It’s definitely a very interesting end to Clementine’s journey,” Hutchison says. “Basically being almost done recording the game, and then to have it yanked away and then have Skybound come through and save it. Hutchison still had about an hour’s worth of lines to record when the studio shut its doors. 2018 when 250 employees were let go without warning (and without severance) and given 30 minutes to exit the building. Telltale’s disastrous closure began in Sept. No foreseeing what was ultimately going to happen with Telltale Games shutting their doors out of the blue.”
“I should say it was an interesting twist because it started off as a Telltale Games adventure. To actually grow and age with a character, it’s become such a huge part of my life,” Hutchison says. Melissa Hutchison spoke to us on the phone back in March, around the time of the game’s stunning finale, and shared her thoughts on the end of the series and Telltale Games as well as what it was like to play Clem for almost a decade.
