I don't get this...

I realize some people might not play The Walking Dead and play The Wolf Among Us, but the Georgie statistic makes no sense to me...

Almost half the people left him to suffer.

Yet in The Walking Dead season two, ninety percent put the dog down instead of leaving it to suffer...

How does that work?

  • Animals first, bro. And Georgie was a murderer.

  • Georgie is grown up dude, it wasn't so big deal but when innocent hungry dog suffers like that, it lefts even the hardest men disturbed.

  • Well I put Georgie out of his misery because IDK I know he's a murderer but there was a part of me that felt bad for him. I guess because he just lost Vivian....

  • He had to do it. Or it would've been Georgie's head on the doorstep a long with Faith and Lily right after by a CM goon.

    i let the dog suffer....i'm sick in my games....the bad playthrough first.

    if no ones tried it, i killed the crooked man in the warehouse and brought him dead to the trial....it was one of the best sequences i've ever played..so awesome...you can show everyone that you ARE the big bad wolf and to NEVER fuck with you, haha...i loved it so much..

    now to play my 'good guy' play through and do things "better".

  • Yeah, I was surprised that my choice of killing was in minority. I know he was an asshole, but still...

  • I killed the dog, but let Georgie suffer, I just felt that Bigby shouldn't have been killing more people idk....

    Honestly, I just thought I'd get crap if I stuck him myself. Bigby says "I'm not like you;" so it wasn't as much left to suffer and refused to kill. Plus I thought his case was more ambiguous. Stabbed in New York versus empaled in the middle of podunk, North Carolina.

  • I killed him too. Although the option I would have wanted from the beginning was to call an ambulance or Doc Swineheart. When Georgie started losing it at the CM's place when they started to throw him under the bus I figured bringing him in would be the best bet, let him testify against the lot of them.

    I tried to uphold the law for the most part. Mainly cuz I wanted Snow White to like me. But apparently we don't bump uglies so I may as well go back and Wolf out the whole time through.

  • I think I did it balanced - I tortured him, and then I finished him off.

  • Well, you know, Georgie died after being stabbed by Bigby,..

  • Technically Bigby already murdered Georgie when he stabbed him...

  • Yeah, but Georgie was trying to kill bigby at that time

  • It wasn't a murder, it was a kill, murder is a planned act.

    Bigby just defended himself.

  • Hurt him and then left him to die cause i felt like it and he was a shit anyway!

  • could have been better if u put a spoiler tag.

    ...

  • I'm a huge fan of Georgie but I felt suffering would be the best choice. A quick, (SORT OF) painless death did not seem like an option to me. He didn't deserve it. Plus, him still alive while Vivian's dead body laid beside him seemed enough. Let him look at someone HE cared about dead and unable to do a damn thing about it.

  • Because he was just a puppy.

    I personally thought that if I left him Swineheart would be able to perform some miracle on him if I got him there fast enough. Of course it didn't turn out like that at all, but I don't rewind.

  • but the choice said "Leave him to die"

    Idk it just didn't click when I read it I guess. I was more focused on keeping him alive to get his testimonial.

    If I was to go back knowing what I know now, I would probably leave him anyway, and I'll quote Pudding_Pie as to why.

    "He didn't deserve it... Let him look at someone HE cared about dead and unable to do a damn thing about it."

    All Sam did was attack a stranger that was holding out on him. Georgie was actively involved in a crime syndicate that used slave labor, and he was a murderer.

    but the choice said "Leave him to die" ...

  • The dog was hungry, desperate and not capable of human empathy. Georgie on the other hands forced women into prostitution and enslaved them with weird ribbons, abused them (verbally/emotionally at least) while they worked for him, and murdered two of them.

    The choice there was also to put the dog down, not whether or not to hurt it first, so it's not really the same choice.

  • A murderer vs a hungry dog. Kind of a apples to oranges comparison.

  • I dont murder georgie, cose its like eutanasion.
    I left him to die, in hope he understand what he did, btw he dont understand that was hes fault.
    He no need to do everything what CM say.

    I have played through the game twice now, and I must say the letting him bleed out option seemed significantly less brutal.

    I am glad I chose that option to be honest... I never knew whether or not he would definitely die, so I left him there.

    I killed the dog in The Walking Dead: Season 2 because it was quite visibly struggling, and dogs are less able to console themselves in situations like that. Humans are able to psychologically aid themselves, so the dog is just going to suffer.

    Actually thinking about it. If Georgie was dying in the same way, I would have put him out of his misery. I guess it seemed more likely that Georgie could live, unlike the dog.

  • Yes, but he was justified as well as the dog. "It was them or Vivian" so he clearly wanted to protect someone he cared about, and he wanted to protect himself. He kinda had a bomb strapped to his back. He does what the CM says or he dies and the girls still get punished.

  • Either way he killed two people. Its not hard to imagine he's gonna get less sympathy than a hungry dog.
