If there was a choice to have Jane kill Arvo would you have done it?

When I was originally playing I was hoping there was a choice to have Jane shoot Arvo because it would've been safer then letting him go and I was right. I stole from him so that's why, but I know he says you did even if you didn't. So would you have killed him if you stole from him or not? And how do you think it would have changed or affected the story?

I wouldn't have him killed. But if he were to be killed, I think the EP4 ending scene would be more intense. Arvo's group would probably ambush Clem's group and start firing right away.
The russians show up looking for him.
Clem: "Anybody speak Russian?"
Luke: "Sarah did."
Clem : "Well, shit."
nope
i would love to kill him
But how would they know they killed him?
Nah, I like Arvo currently, so I wouldn't have killed him.
Same.
He has too much potential as a character so I wouldn't have killed him just for that reason.
You think he's gonna be around long enough to be developed? Also, what potential do you see in him?
Probably not, he'll likely die in the first five minutes but I want to know if he really has a sick sister and why he was trying to hide the medicine in the garbage so I hope he lives long enough for that at least.
He's just a kid. He didnt look that much older than Sarah.
Or Michelle...
Spies
Your point?
Hell no. Besides, you do the same thing to Arvo that Michelle did to Clem. That's just not cool.
I can't kill anyone :c Unless it's people like Lee and Sam, who are suffering or like Lee, asks to be killed.
I honestly don't know.
Possibly.
Guys, Arvo isn't a bad person. The only reason it seemed like he was, is because his group was telling him to say the things he did. In reality, he was actually trying to refrain his group from firing and starting a war, and more like him trying to keep things calm. If you read the translations, ALL of it, then you would see that he wanted nobody to die.
Is this a face of somebody who wants to start a war?
I didn't even rob Arvo, so no I wouldn't have shot him.

People tend to hate on him because it's easier to blame him than, uh, Jane for attacking him first or his group for deciding to rob Clem in revenge.
yes i probably would have, i stayed silent hoping jane would kill him, and i figured the place was quite a good fortified position against a retaliation, but i would have wanted to hide the body and denied seeing him if anybody came along, as to reduce the risk of retaliation, because in a zombie apocalypse people go "missing" all the time.
Never judge a book by its cover. He's totally the baddy of episode 5, just you watch.
So you never killed anyone with Lee or Clementine?
Do you realize he blames you whether or not you robbed him, of course I'm gonna fucking blame him.
Because he assumes that Jane attacked and tried to steal his supplies for Clem's group. It's not unreasonable for the Russians to assume that Clem's group was a threat, particularly since they have no clue about Jane's "lone wolf" charade. He apologizes to Clem if she refuses to rob him and wishes that they met in better circumstances.
It's not Clem's fault that Jane antagonized Arvo. It's not her fault that Sarita died. Yet she, and a lot of players, can't help but take it personally when they're blamed for it.
And it's not unreasonable for Jane to have killed him.
Yeah, murdering a stranger in front of a little girl after trying to rob him?
That's something 'bad guys' do.
Firing on a bunch of strangers with a baby?
That's something 'bad guys' do too.
Arvo tried to get them to stop once he realized they had a baby with them and if you read one of the translations I'm pretty sure the woman in their group also tells everyone to put their guns down.
Actually yes, when she pointed the gun at him i think an option would appear but nope.
No, he doesn't really deserve to die.
That's not the point, it's about survival.
Carver was doing what he was doing for survival too. Doesn't mean you have to lose your humanity along the way.
No I wouldn't kill Russian Harry Potter
My point was just that. He's a kid. I wouldnt be so quick to just take him out without at least talking it over first. If I was on the other end and Clementine walked up to me I would feel the same.
Shoot unarmed crippled potter? Come on man, he has it hard enough.
I don't know, but the reason I stole from him is that I didn't believe the story about his sister for a second. He already looked pretty frail and cowardly, now add being handicapped to that, and what you get is everything but a badass survivor who's looking after his sister on his own. I didn't see him surviving without other people to help him and what he said seemed like a half truth at best, but killing him for this would be a little exaggerate. You have absolutely no idea what kind of person he or the other people of this hypothetical group are.
It just seems too Carver-ish, i mean people hated that guy because he killed Regggie, then some people want the option to murder Arvo a unarmed cripple, just to possibly avoid trouble later. We are more alike than you realize, i think your just not comfortable with it yet.
I was pretty angry at Arvo for a little while but he definitely has potential to become an interesting character.
His physical disability, nervous demeanor and broken glasses do bring to mind a male equivalent to Sarah. It makes you wonder exactly why a group of 'bandits' would keep him around.
