Which decision was the hardest to you?

edited February 2013 in The Walking Dead
We all had to decide certain things, like in the belltower, or in the drugstore, at the side of the road, meat locker, in the forest, in the hospital (...) and so on.

I would like to know which one was the most difficult for you to make?

For me it was the one in the belltower, i dropped him the first time, saved him the second and third time.

I won't make a poll since i would like to see reasons too :)

    The last decision in game was most hard for me. And I chose that more good for Clementine in my opinion - leave Lee.

    Same as you. Ben in the bell tower. I hated him for getting so many people (that telltale suckered me into caring about) killed, through both stupidy (forgivable) and cowardice (not so forgivable) and i wanted the Molly to take his space on the boat.

    I was basically hoping/looking for a chance to kill him, but then when it came it felt so harsh and i wasn't gaining anything by killing him. I paused the game for more thinking time i was so conflicted.

    Eventually dropped him.

    What to do with Beatrice.

    If I shot her, the walkers would've came after me and Kenny. If I left her, I could get inside the pharmacy undetected.

    I was trying to decide what to do while aiming at her head, and just when the timer was about to go out, I chose to leave her.

    The vote to kick or keep Ben in the group. I absolutely hated his guts for all the suffering that he caused even if it was unintentional. All the characters that I cared about bought the farm due to the chain of events he unleashed on the group. He was a coward too, refusing to help Clem and leading to Chuck to sacrifice himself. I can understand from a rational perspective why Ben is a screw up, but when I try to play in character, I figured being pissed at him made sense and would take priority.

    But when it came down to it, I had a much tougher time clicking the abandon Ben option when Clem chimed in "We don't leave friends behind" or something along those lines. Damn you Clem! During my playthrough, I've decided Clem and Carley would be my moral compass. And since Clem obviously objected and I suspected Carley would've too even if she knew what a POS ben was, I decided to vote for keeping.

    The meat locker. Chose to make sure Larry didn't come back, and became a much more pragmatic Lee from then on.

    Taking the supplies from the vehicle.

    I had "just" given Clem a lecture on being good - I felt like such a hypocritical dick.

    But pragmatism, what can ya do......
  • edited January 2013
    Ben.... I hated him for causing numerous deaths. So finally getting a chance to kill him off I wanted to so bad. But I felt guilty :/ Killed him anyways though haha.

    And the final one with clem I think.

    Larry Help or kill. If Clem wasnt there boom!!! Just couldnt smash his head infront of her

    The meat locker. My first play through was me trying to be the most moral I could think of. That meant I really didn't like how Lilly and her dad ran things. I could understand being strict and pragmatic, but they were borderline abusive to their groupies (no question with Larry) from my perspective.

    So on one hand I found myself siding with Kenny in all of their little arguments. They get into another one and I find Kenny is pushing for they solution I was trying to avoid. I wanted to side with him because we were becoming very good friends, but... he was advocating killing a guy without trying to help him. I just couldn't do it, no matter how much I hated Larry and Lilly's sudden helplessness whenever he fell.

    All subsequent play throughs though...

    Leaving Lilly or not. At the time I was furious that she just took out one of my fav characters. Carley was good with a weapon, and seemed to be teaming up with Lee quite nicely. My gut was to leave her, but my head was saying the group needed all the "warm" bodies we could find. I ended up letting her on the RV- but unlike other decisions that I made and moved on...I debated it for a good part of the episode while it unfolded.

    That one for me but i left her. Also about ben since he screws up so many times and the result is bad.

    This might seem strange but for me it was bringing Clem with me to Crawford.

    Whether to bring Lilly or not with us. I ended up bringing her at the last second.

    1. Asking Clementine to shoot me (Lee)
    2. Chopping my arm off (Christa sawing Lee's arm)
    3. Deciding between Carley and Doug (chose Carley - because she was a girl in danger :p)

    1- Bell Tower (I pulled Ben up, even though he was useless I couldn't kill him)
    2- Leaving or bringing Lily (Even though she killed one of my favorite characters (Carley) I was always on her side and I wanted to forgive her, so I brought her along)
    3- Showing the bite or not (I was afraid of being kicked out of the group or killed because of it, so I didn't show the bite)
  • edited January 2013
    Definitely the meat locker. It was very sudden and very dramatic, definitely one of my favorite scenes in the game.

    Who to feed... :D

    About the third, it's optional whether or not to show it, but it is also about how honest a person can be with the ones that he/she is with. If they couldn't trust going with Lee because of the bite, I'd go alone looking for her.

    It took me ages to decide. I decided that I would try to smooth things over with Larry, and Mark sounded hungrier than all the other adults. Those two choices didn't go so well. I also fed the two kids.

    Most people have said the bell tower was a hard choice. I had stuck up for Ben the whole game, so it was an easy choice to save him.

    A lot of my choices were also dependant on Clem - I sided with her about the car and keeping Ben with my group. However, I didn't notice she was right behind me when I pitchforked the first brother. For the end, I was going to tell Clem to walk away...then she said that she didn't want me to become a walker, so I figured she was brave enough to shoot me.

    One hard choice was putting the woman out of her misery or letting her scream. I chose for the latter. The choice about leaving Lilly (as she had just killed Carly, who I thought was great) was also difficult. Later that episode, I wished I had left her.

    What made the meatlocker hard though. Theres so much going on in
    1) Loyalty to Kenny or Lilly
    2) Moral decesion. Can you kill him
    3) Impact Whats it going to do to Clem and what will she think of you doing it
    4) Fallout As Kenny says...

    Clem made it hard for me. I didnt want to teach her murder is ok and I thought how much it could mess her up... Kenny being an ass didnt help

    Same. I thought he deserved it and pitchforked him but Clem's cry almost scared the shit outta me, didn't notice she was behind me as well :D

    The meat locker, crawford and killing Lee where the hardest decisions
  • edited January 2013
    The hardest decision in my opinion, was choosing between Carley and Doug.

    While I'll admit I actually like Doug more than Carley, you can only choose to tell everyone about your past if you save her.
    I thought that was kind of a bad call.
    If you saved Doug, there still should have been an option to tell everyone, instead of having Lilly be the one to do it.

    ummmm....deciding wether or not to kill danny and andy. I really wanted to but with Clem watching I couldn't do it, the same with the campman.

    Doug was a boy in danger. Just because she's a girl shouldn't rule Doug out... -_-

    Last decision. Told Clem to leave me and felt so bad for Lee. Then I cried for about 2 hours. And that kid's, is why I cry every time at the ending. Every. Damn. Time. ; - ;

    Offing LArry probably the easiest decision I ever made.

    I can't think of a way it would make sense with Doug. And as for why Lee can't talk about it anyway well i don't think he likes talking about himself quite simply. How often does he discuss his past/family/ or any feelings without being prompted to by another character? Remember how evasive the game forces you to be with Clem at the start. He needed Carley to push him.

    I actually think that either happening on not is a nice moment as the only real example of your choices causing something asymmetrical.

    It may not have been the actual toughest decision in the game, but whether to take Clem to Crawford was the hardest for me. In the split-second decisions like saving Ben I did my gut reaction (which in that case was to save him). There was no thinking involved. But on the few occasions where I could sit back and actually weigh what may or may not happen based on what I decided, I took all the time I could, and the more time I took, the harder the choice became. This decision was by and large provided with the most amount of time, so I kept going back and forth and back again until the very last second. I ended up taking her with me.

    Whether to shoot the girl and who to feed were both given plenty of time as well, so they were the ones I struggled with as well.

    I don't understand how people can like Doug more than Carly based on episode 1 when Carly has saved Lee's whole group in the opening minutes of arriving at Macon, she saves Lee or Clementine from the zombie in the toilet, she helps Lee clear out the zombies at the motor inn and kills another 8 or so zombies when the pharmacy gets over run. Where as Doug only has one conversation with Lee in the whole episode when Lee goes to get the keys and he puts Lee at risk during that sequence when he shouts out to Lee asking him if he's found the keys yet and he doesn't stand up for Lee when Larry is trying to convince the group to kick Lee and his group out of the pharmacy, in fact he is the only one in the group who says nothing either way. I can understand keeping him alive to see how different the story could play out but I don't understand how he could be favoured over Carly as a character based on one short scene shared with him.

    Regarding us not having the option to tell the group about Lee's past if Doug is in our group makes sense since Lee didn't really establish a relationship/friendhip with Doug in episode 1 to build on for him to confide in him over the 3 months and Carly would have taken Lee's secret to the grave if killed in episode 1. Lee didn't even trust Doug to know how he knew the keys were with the trapped zombie, yet he told Lilly that he knew the owners of the pharmacy when Larry collapsed in the pharmacy and Lilly told him how Larry dragged the couple out of the office thinking they may have been bitten.

    1. Deciding who to feed in your group.
    2. Whether or not to take the food from the car.
    3. To let Ben fall or not. (The guy was a walking disaster who did nothing right but in the end I had a change of heart and saved him.)
  • edited January 2013
    Whether to have Clem leave me or shoot me. Don't want to add to the zombie population, but don't want to make a 9-year-old shoot her caretaker either.
  • edited January 2013
    whether to save Duck or Shawn.

    you owe Shawn, but Duck is a little boy.

    The meat locker decision. I was on the Kenny Team all the way through episode 1 and the beginning of episode 2, and i absolutely despised Larry. But after that, when Larry arrived on the dairy, when he started to soften up and to become more nicer (Especially towards Brenda), and after Lily told me that he lost everyone he loved, i grew a liking to the guy and started to understand what he's going through.

    So yeah, when the choice came up, i just panicked. I liked Kenny, but i wanted to help Larry too so i just kind of stood there and JUST before the timer to make the decision ran out, i quickly started helping Lily.

    The thing about that choice, is i liked both of the people by now but i wasn't sure who to side with. This was one of the decisions i spent as much time to think about as i could before i let my instinct choose.

    The hardest decisions was what to say to Clementine in the end...I wanted to tell her I'd miss her, but I didn't want to make what she had to do harder then it already was...I told her not to be afraid
  • edited January 2013
    Possibly the girl at the start of ep2, I knew Kenny was pissed at me for many reasons so I felt like I had to side with him, but it seems like helping torture by leaving her. In the end I left her because she was helpful in letting us grab as much as we could and needed Kenny on my side. But he left me when the walkers grabbed me, plus he told everyone what a cold 'b'sted I was right in front of Clem. Not cool. I'd have reconsidered but I couldn't restart, I have to live with my consequences
