Shooting the Girl in the street
Okay so when Lee and Kenny are out hunting for supplies and the girl comes out screaming, and you have the choice to either shoot or not shoot, what did you decide and how does it effect the story?
I chose to leave her as a distraction, I thought the zombies might come after me.

In my opinion Kenny is becoming more of a monster with each episode.
It will be interesting how far he'll go now when his family is dead. Is he gonna wake up or actually get even worse?
It's monstrous. There's no two ways about it: You prioritised your own safety and supplies over giving someone else a merciful, swift ending.
And I did it too. Damn me, but I did it. There was a little girl depending on me, but that's hardly an excuse.
the way i see it is, i wouldn't want my death to cause another, so why would the girl?
All 20 items, though I left the girl to die.
First time was 17 though, also left the girl to die.
I left her for bait the second time - and I got more stuff.
If I have another choice, I'd shoot the girl. There seems to be not much difference in the number of stuff retrieved.
Helps the girl.
Can anyone tell me what happens during that conversation if you don't shoot the girl? Does he mention the incident at all?
It's a powerful moment in the game. You're essentially making a choice between pragmatic survival strategy or performing an act of mercy for a total stranger about to suffer a gruesome death.
In the game I shot her and have no regrets. Were I to face that same situation in real life, I'm not sure what I'd do.
They never really consider trying to save her. In my world that would be the most obvious. Instead it's just a matter of cold calculations. In the end I shot her by accident because I was aiming at a zombie, but the bullet magically curved to her head. Apparantly it didn't matter anyway.
But that thing kinda hinted at how cool Lee is about his possible future girlfriend being shot. Doesn't seem to bother him at all.
Were you going to shoot all 10 walkers and risk a herd? Maybe drag her into the drug store so she can turn while you're looting supplies, or maybe drag her back so she can turn in the compound, with walkers in tow.
I got 20 items, which is the limit.
Wasn't kind, but I had people to feed.
But I'm glad it happened, anyway. One less person suffering and one less walker in the world. c:
What's so difficult to understand? I shot the girl because I still have some humanity left. Kenny wouldn't, but I'm sure that he will pull a Shane on me if his life depends on that.
If you shoot the girl, Kenny will proudly confess to the group. There's a difference between doing what's necessary and bragging about it. Kenny is an idiot. Even his wife doesn't agree with him.
Collected 12 items. Lilly was pleased with the haul and a fellow human being did not have to be used in an inhumane way to do it.
It is a bad thing, but necessary, I had to get the maximum possible supplies for my group!
Where was the humanity and mercy?
So. What if you shoot the girl, attract the walkers and you both die in the drug store? The supplies never make it back to the group and that's that.
You put a stranger out of her misery sure, but you are now dead. The rest of the group is probably dead as well. And I don't want to hear "oh.. well that didn't happen", because at the time it's a damn good possibility that it could happen.
There was nothing MONSTROUS about what Kenny suggested at all. It was a good suggestion for the good of the group, and our group is more important than a stranger who is dead anyway.
My thought was to get rid of as many walkers I possibly could and give her a chance to fend for herself - for whatever time she had left. I wasn't about to shoot her, let alone leave her to die with all those walkers around her. Yet the game decided for me, what a shame.
Who knows, maybe she would have had a chance to escape and have the herd of walkers go after her.
so other than the screaming leave her alone
Yami, I played through that the other day and I didn't see Kenny beaming with pride - I saw him leveling back disgust. He brings up the girl in town to illustrate to Lilly that Macon is a waste of time - that it is about time to leave (counter to her suggestion to stay through the winter).
Based upon the choices with Kenny regarding his own son, I am confident that he will do what is necessary for the survival of the group. Anyone who isn't disappointed of what the ZA has made them do - of what they have become, is insane. EVERYONE has done something unscrupulous in the name of survival.
Got 20 supplies though, but I don't see how that affects the story besides a bit of dialogue.
Proudly confess??? Wut?
Kenny said what had happened to illustrate how bad things were in Macon now. He was basically sayin the only reason we got what we did was because a poor girl died. He wasn't proud about it at all.
Bites are 100% lethal and you can not save her. People will get non-zombie illnesses and when cholera spreads amongst your group, tell me how merciful it was to shoot someone who was going to die five minutes after you met her instead of getting enough antibiotics. There are no 'best' options in TWD universe.
Two episodes earlier. :cool:
seriously
That depends on how you played that scene. If you refused to give her the gun and she shoots herself in the parking lot after the balcony breaks, they have to make a run for the car as the walkers arrive.
