    And as far as wanting everyone who's ever sinned against the group my character is in, dead, that does not apply to me.
    And quite frankly, lumping me in that category is unfair.
    So allow me to explain my position.

    When Lilly killed Carly, I found that leaving on the side of the road was punishment enough.
    I showed that I did not approve of what she did, and left her to fend for herself.
    Whether or not if she lived or died, her fate was in her own hands from that point on.
    Not mine.

    When Vernon stole the boat, I wanted him punished for it.
    But realizing that there probably would not be enough time to get Clementine back, and catch up to Vernon, who could've been anywhere by the time Kenny and I found the boat gone, I let it go and opted to head out into the countryside.

    When Bonnie betrayed the group, I knew that I wouldn't be so quick to trust her in episode 3.
    Which is reasonable.
    But I did not want her dead.
    If she murdered a member of the group, then it would be a different story, but alas she did not.

    As far as Troy goes, I wanted Kenny to beat the crap out of him for hurting Clementine.
    Violence against children is wrong.
    And whoever beats on a child, that person deserves to get their ass whipped.

    And like I said before, Carver was to dangerous to be kept alive.
    And I did not find anything redeemable about him.
    And since he showed no remorse, nor repentance for the things he did, I saw no basis to forgive him.

  • I am aware. I didn't say you're viewpoint was invalid. We both have our own opinions, and obviously mine is the unpopular one.

    I love when I post unpopular opinions, and get down votes, and the person I'm countering has the same amount except in up votes! I guess I'll always be in the minority... I was more or less just stating my own viewpoint as well.

  • I liked that you mentioned the fact that Kenny didn't make anyone watch.
    In fact, when speaking to Clementine, Kenny urged her to not watch.
    Whether or not Clementine watched, was all up to the individual player.
    The player bares the responsibility for whatever decision they made.

    If Kenny had not killed Carver, he would come back to capture the group once again. Now, about Kenny killing him in a too brutal way, it

  • Blades, take my upvote for taking a stand for your morals, unpopular though your opinion may be. I myself disagree, and wanted to kill Carver (though not in as brutal a way as Kenny did) to ensure that he couldn't continue to take the lives of others. But I can understand not wanting to kill him. Killing is serious business, as you said, and not to be done lightly to even the worst of people given exactly how much you're taking away from them.

  • I know the history of the word. I also know in modern definition, it also applys to "uncivilized behavior, or lacking culture."

    And I know that punctuation is key when trying to sound "smrt, lelz."

    As I read, I see around four punctual errors. D+.

    yeah thats not what Heathen means, not being of the 3 monotheistic religious groups Christian, Jewish, or Muslim, does not make one not religious or uncivilized...

  • I don't think number count is what we can use as comparison between these historical figures and Carver. It's a state of mind. In my opinion a state of mind in which a person in power has no regard for his fellow man but is enamored with said power and control of others. In this case, I'd say Carver is just as bad as Stalin and other dictators.

  • Words can have more than one definition, isn't THAT crazy? I learned that in, what, second grade?

    Also, in first grade, I learned that you should capitalize the first letter in a sentence. Especially when trying to get your "point" across and make your opponent look like a "bigot."

    In any rate, I've grown tired of this squabble. Look up "heathen," you may be suprised to know there's a few definitions to the word.

  • After reading this discussion, I have to sympathize with you in some respects.
    I do not like my intelligence to be insulted either.
    And if a person insults my manhood, or my family, they're in for a peck of trouble!

    However, over the years, I've been teaching myself to respond in a more dignified way, when it comes to insults like these.
    Even though those types of remarks have a lot of sting to them.
    When someone would insult me like that, I would immediately start having a shouting match with them.
    However, I'm trying to be more calm, when responding.

    And when it comes to family, the way I feel about it is, "You got a problem with my family, you got a problem with me buddy!"
    But I digress.

    I'm happy to see things were resolved.

    Ok, I've had time to cool off. So, I apologise for being a dickhead earlier. I do not apologise for using heathen to describe Kenny's action

  • Thanks for the reply and the up vote! The down votes didn't bother me much but I really appreciate it Rock. I can see that killing Carver can be necessary, but I just wish there was a better option then killing him. I can't blame Kenny for what he did though. After his eye, I guess Kenny was just getting revenge. Still, I think Carver was dead a few hits before, and a shot to the head would have been easier.

    If you watch carefully, you can tell he was dead after the first blow.
    It doesn't take much to severely injure, let alone kill a person.

    For example, Christopher Reeves, ( Who played Superman back in the 70's), became paralyzed after falling from a horse.
    According the the video I saw, Reeves was riding around an indoor obstacle course, when all of a sudden the horse halted as they were nearing a jump.
    Reeves fell straight forward off the horse, landing on his head, and sadly the rest is history.

    Another example of how easy it is to get badly injured, I myself happened to be moving some heavy equipment at work.
    Now the way your suppose to lift is with you're legs, NOT your back, NEITHER rotate your spine.
    Cause of being in a hurry, and plus not thinking about what I was doing, I ended up hurting my back real good.

    As a result, after going to my chiropractor, I was told not lift anything heavy for the next couple, if I didn't to make things much worse.
    I still went to work, but my work performance was hindered because of my injury.

    It doesn't take much to get injured, or killed.
    One little accident, is sometimes all it takes.
    Depending on what the person's doing at the time, of course.

    With all due respect, since I'm the one who created this forum, let's please try to keep things civil.
    I did not create the forum so people can fight with, nor insult one another.
    I created this forum, so we could calmly discuss a subject, about a questionable moral decision, made by a videogame character.

    So I'm going to ask, that we please put our differences aside here.
    As you can see, he's trying to end things in peaceful manner.
    So let's let bygones be bygones.

    True.
    But like those men, he had a very unsacred view of human life.

    That's why keeping ones mind focused on good, decent things is so important.
    What we feed our minds on, has a strong baring on how we act, and react, to situations/ struggles that come our way.
    That's a lesson my Dad taught me growing up.
    Smart man!

  • It's ok.
    If people have different opinions and wish to debate them, that does not bother me.
    Sometimes I rather enjoy a good debate, especially if it involves an intriguing subject.
    Just as long as mutual respect is shown.

  • Even is someone doesn't like the way another person said something, that doesn't mean a person has to get rude with them.
    Nor resort to insults.
    Someone who is truly tactful, does not resort to such things.
    And by not doing so, not only shows respect towards the other person, but also shows self-respect.

    Now I cannot make anyone show respect for anyone else.
    But what I can ask is for people to at least be civil.
    And since I'm the one who created this forum in the first place, I do have a right to ask such.

    And now, with all due respect, let's drop it.
    And move on!

  • Kenny killing Carver was humane in a technical way.

    If he never did that, imagine all the people he would kill next? All the people that would suffer at the hands of him, children even.

    Just like the man himself says, "Killing one in order to save many is part of survival. It's one of the tough decisions that a weaker person couldn't make."

    The 'weaker person' being Luke, sadly. So, in a way, Carver predicted his death... wow.

  • Maybe not right, but necessary. Preferably just with a bullet to the head though.

    He was a bastard who would've killed more people, probably raped Rebecca, tortured Carlos (and potentially Alvin), beat Kenny half-blind, smacked kids about (or instructed it happen), and would probably have come after the group again.

  • no thanks, i will continue calling bigots out on their bigoted behavior. and you didn't create this forum white knight; you created this thread..why are you even jumping into a conversation you dont know shit about? your making excuses for a bigot to continue their bigotry, is that the type of person you are?

  • I actually can't blame him for killing Carver. Even if he killed him violently, I couldn't blame him for snapping. Carver took out his eye. I mean Kenny was being really stupid when he cursed at Carver, but Carver almost killed him as a response.. Personally, Kenny had every right to kill Carver the way he did.

  • edited July 2014

    I meant to say thread.
    And you're correct, it was not my conversation, and I in hindsight, should not have gotten involved.
    And I apologize.

    But I also respect him for standing by what he believes to be right, as doing so takes inner strength.
    And also the fact that he apologised for getting ill-tempered.
    And plus, everyone has their own opinion on something, whether people agree with it or not.
    That's called individuality.

    And after all, Kenny is only a videogame character.
    Not a real person!
    Even though I like his character, and will defend him and why I like him, I don't start calling people bigots and whatnot.
    If I disagree with what they're saying, I'll do so, giving the reasons why, but still doing so in a civil and respectful manner.

    Even though this was originally cause there was a disagreement over the meaning of what a certain word meant, the principle of not needing to resort to insults when disagreeing with another person, still apply.
    And I stand by that principle.

    Plus, this thread that I created, was not asking about a videogame character persay, nor was it asking about proper word definition, but rather was asking a question regarding a questionable moral decision.
    And how ones see it.
    Do they believe it was right/ necessary?
    Or not?
    And seeing why others felt the way they do.

    But anyway, back to the Carver incident.
    The fact that Carver provoked Kenny into killing him, shows just how evil he really was.
    He knew that doing so, Kenny would be playing into his hands, cause Kenny would be stooping to his level.
    Carver wanted him to do so, as he knew he would be taking Kenny down with him, morally speaking.
    That is totally demented!

    Kenny, before then, had never killed out of revenge.
    Yes he had killed to survive, but that is a different reason all together.
    Not saying that Carver did not need to be killed.
    But the reason why Kenny did it, raises highly questionable moral implications.

    Though that is not to say Kenny is a bad man.
    After all, Rick tore a guy's jugular vein out with his teeth, to save his son.
    And he's still trying to do the right thing.
    So I have a feeling, Kenny will still try to do the right thing, while being brutal when he to be.

    no thanks, i will continue calling bigots out on their bigoted behavior. and you didn't create this forum white knight; you created this thr
