Regi and his arm

Iv been thinking and I don't think that Regi lost his arm to a walker bite.
I personally think it could of been a punishment from Carver for trying to escape with the group.
I only think this because chopping Lee's arm off didn't work, but then we chopped his arm off a while after he got bit. As we know removing the bitten area hasn't worked before.
But saying this I did chop off Sarita's arm at the end.

  • It has in the show with Hershel.
  • The show is different to the game and comic though
  • But this is the game.
    I even cut off Lee's arm because it worked in the show

    Yeah i agree with this. Especially how when we are exploring just after meeting Reggie, Kenny says "So, Walker just snuck up on ya?". Reggie's reply doesn't seem real enough to me.

    I'm not saying that it doesn't work because for all we know, we cut Sarita's arm off straight away so it might work. Where as Lee was bitten for a quite a length of time before the arm could be cut off.

    But anyway it probably won't work, since we have the choice to not chop her arm off so she's probably just another determinant character :/

    I think that depends on how quickly and where you do it.

    Let's say your hand or foot gets bit, if you just chop off your foot or hand, it might not do the trick cause the infection might have spread further than that so if you chop like the entire arm or the entire leg, your're more likely to succeed if the infection hasn't spread far enough.
  • It works in the comics too, as far as I know.

    Amputation is an important theme in TWD.

    It worked for Dale in the comic.

  • It didn't work because Lee was bitten for Lord knows how long before getting it cut off. By the time Lee fainted, the disease has already entered his brain, slowly killing him.

    But this is the game. I even cut off Lee's arm because it worked in the show

  • What he was saying didn't seem real. A complete cover story.
    And why would carver let him be saved to just throw him off a building.
    It could work of you cut it off immediately, we cut off Lee's arm a while after it happened.
    But we cut off Sarita's arm when the zombie is still attached to her.
    It could be a whole nick thing, one choice saves, one choice kills.

    Yeah i agree with this. Especially how when we are exploring just after meeting Reggie, Kenny says "So, Walker just snuck up on ya?". Reggie

  • Its a tricky subject, as we've not seen it happen and someone survive,
    We've heard of it working, just never witnessed it first hand.

  • This seems somewhat relevant, my aunt got her leg cut off yesterday.
  • In the comic and TV show it might work,
    But they could try and so something different with the game.
    I don't know, I just don't think Regi was bitten
  • That is why I immediately chopped Sarita's arm off. Maybe it'll actually work this time. and we have proof of it working in the game as well.

    Unfortunately even if it does work Rita is still living on borrowed time, best case scenario she will now be determinant.

  • That just kinda killed the mood :/

    Up to now we have no proof of this working in the game.
    I chopped off Lee's arm because it worked in the show, but by the time we had the choice to do this, the infection probably spread too much. I'm hoping chopping off Sarita's arm works.

  • Oh wow.
    That's terrible!

  • Nah it's not so bad, she is glad to be rid of it since it was ganrenous.

    Oh wow. That's terrible!

  • Me too!
    Poor Kenny doesn't have much luck :/
    First his wife and child. Then he almost dies and now his current girlfriend.
    Everything seems to go wrong for the guy.

    True, but I do hope she makes it, I wanna see her live.

  • Well, what we only have to go by is Reggi's lost arm, and we have no real evidence it was taken away cause of the walkers. So yeah, I'd like her to live so people in that world get somewhat more of a hope, maybe.

    Atleast he seemed happy without the arm aswell.

    That's exactly why I chopped off her arm too. Up to now we have no proof of this working in the game. I chopped off Lee's arm because

  • Pete said it worked, though. Why would Pete lie?

  • Was she bitten?

    Sorry, bad joke if you're actually serious. My prayer goes out to her, man.

  • Yeah, he didn't even get to keep his boat. well, atleast he got that awesome beard to keep him company.

  • At least she could look really cool now with a wooden pirate leg.

    If only he had his boat to complete the look.

  • Yeah especially now when he's doing this entire pirate theme, maybe he should get a parrot and a peg leg too :)

  • Bad joke, I got a chuckle out of it :)

    Nah she is doing well, the gangrene was caused by bad blood flow and the bad blood flow was caused by cancer treatment, thankfully she is getting on top of the cancer.

  • We only have what he's said to go on.
    And I feel like he wasn't bitten.

    He was probably pretending to be happy,

  • Just to complete the look!!!
    He's definitely pulling the pirate look off.

  • haha yeah, he'd look incredible.

  • I would like to find out if it's true he lost it to a walker or not, Bonnie mentioned they've had herds come through before, maybe it was during one of those times.

    Pete said it worked, though. Why would Pete lie?

  • I think heards happened before Regi got 'bitten'
    Maybe that guy who apparently saved him could inform us of the truth.
    If he's still alive.

    Poor Reggie, though I think he should have stood up for himself. Carver was never going to "let him back" into the group.
  • Sorry to hear that man. I hope she manages and recovers well.

  • I don't think he would have let him back in.
    He was pretty much using him to work until he got the group back.
    Then forced them into the work.
    If he stand up to him, he would probably lose another arm or leg.

    The game is canon to the comics, and in the comics amputation fucking works. case closed.

    I think Pete said that he's heard of it working. But even he hasn't seen it work.
