* IKnewIt: As soon as the season was announced with a poster mirroring that of Season 1, fans were predicting that [[spoiler:Clem would get bitten and AJ would have to make the same choice she had with Lee at the end of Season 1]], speculation helped along with some heavy foreshadowing. Come Season 4 Episode 4, this prediction was proven correct... mostly: [[spoiler:Clem ''does'' get bitten and tells AJ to either kill her or let her turn, but AJ takes a third option and lops her infected limb off, letting her survive]].

** A common complain of ''A New Frontier'' is Clementine's lack of importance to the story and only being playable during short flashback segments. Here, she is once again the playable character and her actions will influence AJ similar to the relationship between Lee and Clementine in Season 1.
** Kent Mudle stated in a Reddit AMA that he disliked a lot of the [[PlotlineDeath often unavoidable]] character deaths in Season 2, echoing a particular complaint from fans, and promised that if a character is determinant and is saved by the player, they will live to the end of the story.
** Clementine's ShipTease with Gabe in ''A New Frontier'' received mainly negative reactions, due to Gabe being considered TheScrappy for many, and since you didn't control Clementine, there was no way of influencing her opinion of him either way. Whether the crew was aware of this backlash or not, in ''The Final Season'', you're back in control of Clementine and are given two different, much more likable love interests and can decide which one to romance, or even if you want Clementine to romance them at all, the choice is entirely yours.
*** Expanding on that, when Louis asks Clementine in Episode 1 if she's ever had a boyfriend, you can decide whether Clementine will mention Gabe and that she possibly liked him, or dismiss him entirely.
** Similarly, another romantic sub-plot that received some flak in ANF was Javi and Kate's relationship being pushed by the narrative and other characters even when you try to have Javi show no interest in her. Kate can come off as down right nagging as she will regardless attempt to pursue a relationship with him and throws a tantrum if you don't reciprocate. In ''Season 4'', as mentioned above, you can choose to have Clementine not pursue a relationship with either Violet or Louis and, apart from minor scenes, nothing of the story changes (in fact staying friends with them will give different unique minor scenes and dialogues) and neither Louis or Violet will act "disappointed" at being rejected; on the contrary, it's never brought up again and they continue to be great friends to her (particularly the one you save).
** Season 2 received some criticism due to the group of able-bodied, healthy adults relying on an eleven-year-old girl to do everything on account of Clementine being the protagonist. In this season, Clementine becomes the protagonist once again, but this time she's surrounded by children her age or younger who don't know as much about fighting and survival as Clem does, so their reliance on her is much more believable.
** Seasons 2 and 3 were criticized for undermining the side characters, as even those with more dimensional personalities (Nick, David, etc.) were often left out-of-focus until they often died abruptly. Season 4 has been praised for giving the new characters proper focus and development, allowing players to actively care about them as opposed to seeing them as bodies waiting to drop.

** In a Q&A session on Reddit, Kent Mudle stated that he disliked how the writers for Season 2 had gone out of their way to unavoidably kill off characters like Nick, Pete, and Sarah -- circumventing the players' ability to choose to save them -- and that for Season 4 a strict ground rule was laid out that "If a player choice causes this death, it can only be caused by player choice."
** Kent Mudle lowkey dislikes the marketing image for Season 4, since Clem looks too aggressive and AJ looks too timid.

** Another early draft had Violet determinately turning into an antagonist at the end, [[spoiler:where she'd keep fighting Clementine after the boat destruction and either leave or be forced to come back to the school. Even in the latter scenario, Violet would still end up leaving, her trust in people broken to the point she'd rather be alone. After the above scenario with Tenn got changed, this ended up changed too, as the writers figured an ending where both Louis could die and Violet leave was too much of a DownerEnding.]]
