If You Could... Who Would You Choose?

edited September 2012 in The Walking Dead
Who would you choose to pardon from death? So far in this game, if you had the power to change only one characters fate, only one, which of the main characters would you save from their ultimate demise? Who gets to live? and why?

Duck
Katjaa
Carley
Doug
Lary
Mark
Shawn
Other

    tough choice... even though it's the worst choice of a zombie apocalypse, and he's bound to get bitten again... a Batman needs his Robin...

    Carley. Hands down.
  • edited August 2012
    Carley's becoming a solid fan favorite to the point where she impacts almost all of us

    Hopefully, by the time Episode 4 is about to come out, that dumbtard AJ Locasio whose been ignoring important questions FROM THE FANS and handpicking questions that SEEMS IMPORTANT TO HIM will have the balls to start asking Telltale Game staffs questions like

    1. So, Episode 3 was a bit late. You guys promised that it'd get released by mid August. What happened along the way ? Was there some sort of trouble ?

    2. I was a bit shocked about your decisions to kill off Carley. I thought she'd hang around for a little bit more. I know she had to go eventually, but it didn't hit me that she'd go this way because the Episode 3 prediction gave me a feeling that she'd be doing as fine as she did in Episode 2. In fact, players were teased with a bit Carley-Lee romance at the start of the game before her demise. What's your take on this ?

    3. I know this is THE Walking Dead, but if there was a huge request from fans, will you guys ever consider bringing Carley/Doug back ? You know, maybe at the end of the game, it might have been revealed that they survived the gunshot to the face. And by coming back, I mean in person, not as a walking dead.

    Carley. It was one of the more interesting points in the game as she was directly affecting Lee. Not many of the characters have been able to do that.
  • edited August 2012
    Carley. Too much wasted potential. I also don't really like that they went in a direction that made Doug/Carley's death at the same point. Maybe in the same episode, but still.

    OH GOD PLEASE BRING HER BACK!

    Let there be an option to make Ben the traitor, and let Lily kill him. That way, its a mere death switch, which makes it VERY viable.

    I chose Shawn. He's a police officer and he's trained. I'd much rather have him cover my back than any of the other options.

    Unfortunately at this rate, I don't think Telltale would go all out on bringing Carley back as how she looked like in the game.

    Imagine maybe Carley coming back with an eye patch or something. I think that's as far as Telltale's willing to go.

    Telltale is not Robert Kirkman, Robert Kirkman is not Telltale. How they direct the story doesn't have to be in conjunction with that fatman's story. I get it that TWD is a sad story about human nature, but it doesn't mean any game based on it have to follow that fatass' lead, especially the kind that screws up fan's expectation.

    Wasted Potential...yes i agree with that. That and other than Clem, Carley was the only one who REALLY knew who you were at first, and your love interest.

    And also the person who saved you....

    goddamn it

    Carley. She was easily the most valuable member of group (think of how she took out those bandits without losing her cools giving time for rest of the group to take cover)
  • edited August 2012
    the way carley wasted those two bandits left me pretty much in awe. nice shooting quickdraw! But I kinda thought that if she survued with me and Clem, it would be like a family. Plus, after all she did for the group, and surviving that huge bandit raid, the way she was taken out was just horrifying. What the fuck Lilly?
  • edited August 2012
    Doug. He jumped in front of a bullet meant for Ben.

    Even in the end, he was a big ol' lovable hero. :(
  • edited August 2012
    Quite honestly, I really with I could have saved that Girl in the beginning of EP3...
    But well, having Larry around bossing us around created the illusion of safety.

    If I could pick two Characters they would be Carley and Duck.
  • edited August 2012
    Carley. Duck was a cool little tyke and may god rest his soul, but my god...

    In the beginning, we all simply saw her as just an idiot who didn't know how to put in batteries. In the beginning, I just saw her as one of those snooty news anchors who was trying to move on up. But then I saw how much her and Lee were pretty much the only ones who were ACTUALLY friends. It could have blossomed in to something more.

    Seeing how much she cared about Clem and Lee, how she always joked about the battery situation, how she kissed Lee on the cheek, how she wasted those two bandits with her pistol... only for her to be on the other end just five minutes afterwards.

    That is why I didn't think twice before leaving Lilly on the road... that is why I would have killed her, would I be given the choice... that is why I would have made it to where that coward died and not Carley.
  • edited August 2012
    ITS UNANIMOUS! Come on telltale.... please make the choice to save Carley...its the logical choice and i want it.
  • edited August 2012
    Man, lotta love for Carley here... But you know what? I'm gonna go for Mark. I mean, I liked Carley but at least she got shot in the face and died instantly. Mark was a cool guy who had his legs chopped off and eaten before bleeding to death! If anyone deserves a reprieve, it's that guy.

    theres no way to bring back Mark without severely changing the storyline

    These are some solid questions. Unfortunately, if they do answer the questions, they'd probably give us some BS answers.

    I miss Carley and Duck.

    Katjaa.

    Not sure why, but I felt more of a bond with Kenny/Katjaa than any other characters in the game. It really sucked when she offed herself.

    Duck. He's a two-fer, with Duck comes Katjaa.

    Carley and Mark for me. Cause I think they would of been useful.
    Duck and Katjaa had no real place. Altho if I had to choose one to die, it would be Kat.
    Cause Clem needs another kid and maybe Kenny wouldn't be such a wreck.

    I think Kenny gathered himself remarkably well, all things considered.

    I would save primarily Carley and secondarily Mark. Carley because her death was just so stupid and Mark because he seemed all-round likable.

    I really, really wish you could've chosen whether Lilly shoots Carley or Ben based on your conversation choices just before it happened, since she was blaming both of them after all.
  • edited August 2012
    Carley.

    I can't help but feel TTG knew this would be the sort of reaction they would get. Can't help but feel it's sadistic of them to kill her off, but would you expect anything less considering the nature of the series?
  • edited August 2012
    carley because I was hoping to get sex after her hitting on me so much
  • edited August 2012
    Carly, because she seemed to be the most reliable, friendly, well-balanced and level-headed person in the whole group. Besides Clem, she was basically the only person in the whole group you could really depend on, who never tried to backstab you or accuse you of something or starting a huge argument or anything. That's especially remarkable considering SHE KNOWS the truth about Lee's past right from the start... and still she supports you time and time again.
    That's EXACTLY the kind of person I'd want to have in my own survivor group - people I can depend on. Who cares if she's got a problem with batteries?

    Lilly got increasingly angry, hostile and downright insane, Kenny would blindly do anything to protect himself and his family, Larry was just a giant ass to everybody and Ben is ... well ... just nobody you could depend on to save your life in a sticky situation.

    Mark was likable, if maybe rather naive, but I just didn't know him enough to prefer him over Carley. Same situation as with Shawn, really (minus the naivety).

    I also liked Katjaa quite a bit, but in the end she's still Kenny's wife and during the episodes I didn't really get to talk or interact with her all that much. The whole situation was also just too much for her to handle, so I have my doubts if it'd do her any good to bring her back into this cruel world.

    Duck was plain annoying in the first two episodes, but I did feel very sad for him in episode 3. Still I think he's better off this way. If not on that day, something would have gotten to him rather sooner than later, anyway.

    Doug... well, I didn't play with him, so I can't say much about him. Liked him in episode 1, at least, but I'll always prefer Carly over his TV remote skills.
  • edited August 2012
    Even though Carley was my favorite character behind Lee and Clem, I voted for Mark. He was much like Lee in his decision-making and attitude. Would have loved to see how they got on if he wasn't made into food by the St Johns.
  • edited August 2012
    I would save Larry, of course. Thus our group won't fall apart and even your beloved Carley will make it... probably :D
  • edited August 2012
    But... I couldn't save any of them... *sigh*
