if Carley was a nerd and Doug was a crack shot
if Carley was a nerd and Doug was a crack shot and had a gun, would you have saved different people in your first game?
Edit:
i was thinking about a sort of personality swap but more as a background to the reason why they have the skills they have, they would still have the same family and history but have swapped careerer paths
Doug would know your secret he is the reporter and he saves you with his gun, Carley would programme the remote etc.

I don't know. That's a good question. I honestly saved Carley b/c I liked her better. It had nothing to do with utility.
If their personality switched too then maybe.
I think you need to rephrase the question/answers or add a couple other options. The current options are just making an assumption that is counter productive.

@zgamer i have made the question a bit more clear i hope
Amen.
I'd still save Carley.
I wasn't interested in a romance with her or her personality (she actually seemed a bit of a bitch confronting me in the back office) I simply picked her because she'd be more of an asset.
If it was Doug with the gun, he would definitely have been brought along for the ride instead.
So now I know I can't, I don't know. After knowing this stuff, I would have likely chosen carley, because she can shoot. (without using reasons further in the game)
That little bit of trust Carley showed Lee in the office went a long way with me.
OMG i didn't realise "bro's before hoe's" could be used as the opposite to "women and children first"
If TWD was a puzzle heavy game, then I'd have picked Doug. That bit he did with the remote and the TV store across the street in Macon would have sold me. Since it isn't, I chose Carley and would do it again.
To be honest, it's almost like TTG wants you to pick Carley. What do you see of Doug's personality before making a choice, except for the brief exchange outside of the drugstore?
yeah i realised after i asked the question that carley would have appealed to me more if she was a nerd
But.... if this isn't the case.
My answer....... stays the same.
Doug would have earned some trust, but... Nerd Girls are hot. So, I'd have actual hormonal incentive to save Carley. Where Rambo-Reporter Carley got saved because she was good with a gun and showed Lee some trust.
Doug... well... he was there and he was alive. That's literally all I knew about him. He did a good job getting those TV's on to distract the walkers so I could get the keys but that is literally all he did in the first episode.
Besides, in the situation, Carley looked like she was in far more distress than Doug anyway. Carley had a walker grabbing her ankle and more coming through the hole toward her with no way to defend herself. Doug had a walker arm reaching in through some boards to grab his chest, which in reality he could have easily gotten away from. It sucked one of them had to die, but in the situation we were given, I will always save Carley and never will get to experience what Doug has to offer.
I didn't save Doug because Carley proved she was far more equipped for the apocalypse than he was. If roles had been reversed and I'd gone on a mission with Doug, he'd saved me and he proved he was a capable guy, I'd have saved him instead.
Carley wasnt a bitch where did u get that?
reasons for saving carley (at this point of time, knowing that one must die, in my personal order):
-saves you twice
-i like her because of her character traits (or because i know more about here)
-good shot (though you can still use her gun if she dies)
-attractive
-women need protection
if you swap personality, skills and plot with doug then all that's left are the last two points. so then i'd save doug. if you only take out the good shot point i would still save carley
Switching personality would mean let a hot girl-nerd die...maybe
And two the amount of interaction you have with carley.
There is the scene in the office where she tells you she knows his secret and that she won't tell any one. The battery scene and the broadcast that follows. Then she comes on the motel mission with you. She also saves your life.
Doug turned on tvs for me. Then yelled at me to hurry up.
I think, if Doug had just had THE ONE zombie on his ankle he could have stomped on (because Lee does this several times himself) and Carly was being grabbed by several zombies, I'd have gone for her. In the game of course I saved Doug for this reason.
