Yeah same here. It was so unexpected. That was one of the reasons it had so much impact. And also, cause she never really hurt anybody or caused any trouble within the group.
Carley's death wasnt as sad as it was shocking. I was stunned and then immediately furious at Lilly. Duck's death was very sad, especially the scene just before it between Kat and Kenny. Very emotional stuff.
I saw it coming the moment Carly called Lily a 'stupid scared little bitch' (or something along those lines). I wasn't really as emotional as I thought I would be.
Duck's death got me though.
Having to talk Kenny into stopping the train, then the dialogue between Kaatja and Kenny talking about putting down their own son, then Kaatja committing suicide, and then finally Kenny having to kill his own son.
What really hit home was the fact that the same thing would be happening to millions of families all over the world...
...And that one day, Lee might have to do the same thing to Clem.
1. Larry - Lily just broke my heart in that scene. It was really painful to watch her go through that.
2. Duck - Never liked him much until he named me Batman. I was saddened because of Katjaa and Clem's reactions.
Carley was sudden and not really that emotional. I really can't get why people seem to choose her over Duck's death.
P.S In my playthrough Kenny was a douchebag even during his son's final hours.
Kat's death was emotional too me and shocking, the fact she shot herself and didn't get the job done. and seeing Kenny wasn't in the right mind, so had Lee do it.
The loss of Duck was the most/worst of all the losses thus far. I keep thinking that the last thing duck saw was his dead mother....sorry...that's why his death was the worst.
Don't worry. The last thing Duck saw was the receiving end of a Glock 22. With either a strange black man he's known for 3 months or his father behind it.
The loss of Duck was the most/worst of all the losses thus far. I keep thinking that the last thing duck saw was his dead mother....sorry...that's why his death was the worst.
I kinda choose to believe that Duck was so far gone, so close to death, he didnt even really comprehend what he saw if he even noticed.. He was curled up against the tree with a pretty emotionless blank stare.
People can argue that he was frozen in shock or something, but I think he was just already gone.
None. The one and only death that caused any kind of an emotion in me so far was Carley in EP3, and that emotion was blind rage, which probably doesn't count.
I actually laughed when Doug died, Lilly had such a "whoopsie" face on her I couldn't help, but do so. Same with Carly and said "Yeah, get some brain cells next life please "
Duck/Katjaa was more emotional.
Walking Dead has a weird thing for me that I can predict who will die(normally) from nothing, but not how. I knew Katjaa would die, I did not at all think it would be suicide because her own son is about to die. That was a great move, and really moving scene.
Kat and Duck was by far the most tragic, but Carley's was beyond shocking and had the greatest impact. Her character was one of the most endearing and you can sense the potential that had been lost more than anything.
When Carly died I shouted at my monitor. It was depressing.
When she died, I immediately said "No way!" and restarted the scene thinking there would be an alternative way. If anything, it serves to highlight the limitations of this type of video game.
ALL of the deaths in Episode 3 are very emotional. But seeing your one true friend (Carley) killed without any reason is just too painful. She saved Lee's ass many many times, and I can't believe TTG didn't make the option to stop Lily. You all know that Lee is right beside Lilly and how the hell did Lee didn't notice when Lilly is about to reach for her gun. It's bullshit seeing her die without a proper burial or something.
As soon as Carley started tearing Lilly a new one, I knew this was going to get really horrible really fast. I even saw her reach for the gun. But still, completely earthshaking since half an hour earlier I decided there was no way I was losing Carley, my second favorite character, no matter what. And then WHAM.
But my third favorite character, Kaatja, she broke my heart so deep because I had to watch her suffer and die in slow motion carrying the burdens of her son and her husband's despair.
I've always kind of liked her, but she proved to be such a total badass at the beginning of Episode 2, especially if you try to feed her while she's busy saving lives. That scene in the hallway where she's held hostage in Episode 2 I realized how much I desperately wanted to keep her alive and how willing I was to kill to save her.
She's the person I told my secret to other than Clementine...I even asked her to step aside and away from Kenny so I could tell her in private. And then she was so sweet and forgiving and supportive.
All of that just exploded on me when I realized she was gone and she wouldn't even let me fight to protect her.
When she died, I immediately said "No way!" and restarted the scene thinking there would be an alternative way. If anything, it serves to highlight the limitations of this type of video game.
Well I didn't shout from the top of the voice, but said "Nooooo" rather loudly. I immediately paused the game, to take it all in. I couldn't believe it. Then I thought "screw Lilly" even though I helped save her dad and trusted her enough to tell her my secret. So I left her at the side of the road and that was that.
Carley, Duck, and Kat's deaths were all emotional to me.
Especially Carley and Duck's.
I put down Duck, BTW. Kat's last words to me were how much her family appreciated me taking on the task, and not allowing her or Kenny to do it.
Then she killed herself, which made Duck's death even that much more emotional.
I sat there for what felt like a minute, before I shot him.
Kat I wasn't sad. Duck I wasn't sad, and I was not feeling any pity for Kenny. I still dislike him and don't trust him ( which I why I chose to say we are leaving ). Everything was happening so fast, there was no time to feel sorry about any of them.
I was happy to shoot Duck, little brat. Wish it had the crosshairs like the sniper section at the motel, so you could 'miss' his head a few times and have some target practice on his various limbs. Would be funny to hear Kenny 'god damn it can't you shoot for anything? Give me that gun!!' and you'd be like, no, sorry it's mine.. just having some fun. Or something. Haha.
I literally had to pause my game when Carley went down and just took a few breathes. Like wow, that was a Walking Dead moment, Lol.
Also, that woman at the beginning of this episode. That one made me cringe because I left her to die and all of those screams. They really make sure you feel for her while you go after those cans.
Kat and Duck's deaths got to me, especially when seeing the boy suffering and his mother probably feeling helpless to stop it. In the end, it's sad that they we didn't get the option to put their bodies closer together, albeit being able to give them a burial.
I'd say that Carley had made me the most emotional.
But, the part in the game that made me feel the most emotional was beating the crap out of the one St.John brother. I was just going to town on him, and I would've continued, until it gave me the option to walk away. Walking away felt many times more cruel, so I left him bloodied and broken for the walkers to finish. That was for sure the most that the game made me feel.
With Carley, I again did feel very emotional, and it even had a similar result. If the choices were to kill Lily or leave her like I did, I would have still left her. T'is a much crueler fate in such a place.
Well it was Duck for sure. Being a father of 2 boys who are about duck's age, as soon as we knew he was bitten, I started to feel for him and his parents. When we finally had to kill him, I had tears to my eyes. It's rare that I get this emotional about a video game.
As for Carley, it was emotionnal, but more like a complete suprised. I was so pissed at lily that I don't think I even hesitated when I decided to leave her beind.
Am I the only one that popped Duck without a second thought?
*raises hand*
Don't get me wrong, I did feel a slight lump in my throat when he and Kat died. But during that moment in the game I was still so rattled by Carley's death I couldn't concentrate on anything else but that.
It's been 2 days since I saw Carley die, and am still really sad about it..
back then I didn't even hesitate to leave Lilly behind, Carley's death has to be the most emotional thing I have gotten over fictional things, EVER. People die in other movies, games and stories, but this is the one that struck straight into my heart.
It's almost like I really knew her.
When she died, I immediately said "No way!" and restarted the scene thinking there would be an alternative way. If anything, it serves to highlight the limitations of this type of video game.
Not only does this game have limited options along the way.
In Ep3 they killed most decision you made up until now.
I guess the game was just to complicated for telltale to handle.
The death of Carley made me so angry that I didn't hesitate at all if I should leave Lilly there on the road. I didn't even feel sorry for her when I saw that the zombies were coming for her.
Edit : I also restarted the scene and chose the option to blame myself hoping that I can save her.
Carley's death had me sprint through shock, denial and murderous anger that later faded into loneliness and hopeless despair. Having Clem around was comforting, but Carley was the only adult character I liked and trusted 100%.
Duck's death was just thoroughly heartbreaking. Watching Kenny and Katjaa breaking down at the prospect of ending their son's life. Then seeing Kenny lose his entire family in a few cruel moments.
The fact that Kenny and I weren't on good terms at the time all this happened actually made it all that more profound. Differences were put aside and I couldn't help but feel only the deepest sympathy for the poor guy.
Doug I was thinking he'd die this episode, but not like that! I was really upset about Duck and Katjaa too! I was soo not expecting them to die this episode! I shot that zombie that was on top of them, and I'm thinkin "oh good, I think they're okay!" NOPE! Freakin Duck got bit! Then Katjaa shot herself.. I didn't see that coming.. I should. It was all so sad Ah man, then Clem woke up as a zombie, and I'm like WHAAAAT?! CLEM GOT BIT?! NOOOOOO!!!!! But it was just a dream! Phew! Poor Kenny.. I don't know why he's even still holdin on. lol. Beside's that my Lee has been his homie since day 1!.. Or I guess it was day 2 when we met Kenny :P
yea Carley died and I just kept telling myself that I'd be able to go back and save her, then after I learned that you can't, I'm not even sure what to say to that

Carly was just shocking. plain and simple

I personally waited for a bit until it looked like he stopped breathing.

Katjaa she just took the easy way out i was like wow bloody mess, but ohh RIP Katjaa 2012 and thats it.

I'm torn between Carley and Duck lol
