Whose death made you so emotional?

[ZombieBlaster]

A lot of the characters have died already, but Carley's death just broke my damn heart!

[LokiHavok]

Yeah same here. It was so unexpected. That was one of the reasons it had so much impact. And also, cause she never really hurt anybody or caused any trouble within the group.

[Sox&Rocks22]

Carley's death wasnt as sad as it was shocking. I was stunned and then immediately furious at Lilly. Duck's death was very sad, especially the scene just before it between Kat and Kenny. Very emotional stuff.

[HNKenshiro]

a toss up between Carley and Duck.

[craftyard]

I saw it coming the moment Carly called Lily a 'stupid scared little bitch' (or something along those lines). I wasn't really as emotional as I thought I would be.

Duck's death got me though.

Having to talk Kenny into stopping the train, then the dialogue between Kaatja and Kenny talking about putting down their own son, then Kaatja committing suicide, and then finally Kenny having to kill his own son.

What really hit home was the fact that the same thing would be happening to millions of families all over the world...

...And that one day, Lee might have to do the same thing to Clem.

[YamiRaziel]

1. Larry - Lily just broke my heart in that scene. It was really painful to watch her go through that.
2. Duck - Never liked him much until he named me Batman. I was saddened because of Katjaa and Clem's reactions.

Carley was sudden and not really that emotional. I really can't get why people seem to choose her over Duck's death.

P.S In my playthrough Kenny was a douchebag even during his son's final hours.

[diamondsplus]

Kat's death was emotional too me and shocking, the fact she shot herself and didn't get the job done. and seeing Kenny wasn't in the right mind, so had Lee do it.

Carly was just shocking. plain and simple

[Kiel555]

The loss of Duck was the most/worst of all the losses thus far. I keep thinking that the last thing duck saw was his dead mother....sorry...that's why his death was the worst.

[LokiHavok]

Don't worry. The last thing Duck saw was the receiving end of a Glock 22. With either a strange black man he's known for 3 months or his father behind it.

[WowMutt]

The loss of Duck was the most/worst of all the losses thus far. I keep thinking that the last thing duck saw was his dead mother....sorry...that's why his death was the worst.

I kinda choose to believe that Duck was so far gone, so close to death, he didnt even really comprehend what he saw if he even noticed.. He was curled up against the tree with a pretty emotionless blank stare.

People can argue that he was frozen in shock or something, but I think he was just already gone.

[LokiHavok]

Whatever you virtual child murderers have to tell yourself.
I personally waited for a bit until it looked like he stopped breathing.

[David Starsky]

I just sat there for a few seconds and closed my eyes... then fired.

[Kaapo]

None. The one and only death that caused any kind of an emotion in me so far was Carley in EP3, and that emotion was blind rage, which probably doesn't count.

[Christoaster]

Kaatja by far.

[Gman5852]

I actually laughed when Doug died, Lilly had such a "whoopsie" face on her I couldn't help, but do so. Same with Carly and said "Yeah, get some brain cells next life please :p"

Duck/Katjaa was more emotional.

Walking Dead has a weird thing for me that I can predict who will die(normally) from nothing, but not how. I knew Katjaa would die, I did not at all think it would be suicide because her own son is about to die. That was a great move, and really moving scene.

[Murasaki]

Kat and Duck was by far the most tragic, but Carley's was beyond shocking and had the greatest impact. Her character was one of the most endearing and you can sense the potential that had been lost more than anything.

[Bananapatcher]

I didn't really think anything when Carley died.

[Masta23]

When Carly died I shouted at my monitor. It was depressing.

[Murasaki]

When Carly died I shouted at my monitor. It was depressing.

When she died, I immediately said "No way!" and restarted the scene thinking there would be an alternative way. If anything, it serves to highlight the limitations of this type of video game.

[ZombieBlaster]

ALL of the deaths in Episode 3 are very emotional. But seeing your one true friend (Carley) killed without any reason is just too painful. She saved Lee's ass many many times, and I can't believe TTG didn't make the option to stop Lily. You all know that Lee is right beside Lilly and how the hell did Lee didn't notice when Lilly is about to reach for her gun. It's bullshit seeing her die without a proper burial or something.

[GamingDragon316]

Duck death gave me alot of tears. i didnt care to much for Carley.

[bazenji]

As soon as Carley started tearing Lilly a new one, I knew this was going to get really horrible really fast. I even saw her reach for the gun. But still, completely earthshaking since half an hour earlier I decided there was no way I was losing Carley, my second favorite character, no matter what. And then WHAM.

But my third favorite character, Kaatja, she broke my heart so deep because I had to watch her suffer and die in slow motion carrying the burdens of her son and her husband's despair.

I've always kind of liked her, but she proved to be such a total badass at the beginning of Episode 2, especially if you try to feed her while she's busy saving lives. That scene in the hallway where she's held hostage in Episode 2 I realized how much I desperately wanted to keep her alive and how willing I was to kill to save her.

She's the person I told my secret to other than Clementine...I even asked her to step aside and away from Kenny so I could tell her in private. And then she was so sweet and forgiving and supportive.

All of that just exploded on me when I realized she was gone and she wouldn't even let me fight to protect her.

[Masta23]

When she died, I immediately said "No way!" and restarted the scene thinking there would be an alternative way. If anything, it serves to highlight the limitations of this type of video game.
Well I didn't shout from the top of the voice, but said "Nooooo" rather loudly. I immediately paused the game, to take it all in. I couldn't believe it. Then I thought "screw Lilly" even though I helped save her dad and trusted her enough to tell her my secret. So I left her at the side of the road and that was that.

[Sergiy]

They all got me emotional, but in different ways, anger in some, sadness in others.
However Duck is currently freshest in my mind.

[HorrorGod]

Carley, Duck, and Kat's deaths were all emotional to me.
Especially Carley and Duck's.
I put down Duck, BTW. Kat's last words to me were how much her family appreciated me taking on the task, and not allowing her or Kenny to do it.

Then she killed herself, which made Duck's death even that much more emotional.
I sat there for what felt like a minute, before I shot him.

[NeonBlade]

I was only genuinely sad about Doug.

Kat I wasn't sad. Duck I wasn't sad, and I was not feeling any pity for Kenny. I still dislike him and don't trust him ( which I why I chose to say we are leaving ). Everything was happening so fast, there was no time to feel sorry about any of them.

[Ninja Gaijin]

Larry, Kenny was a total dick in that situation.

I was happy to shoot Duck, little brat. Wish it had the crosshairs like the sniper section at the motel, so you could 'miss' his head a few times and have some target practice on his various limbs. Would be funny to hear Kenny 'god damn it can't you shoot for anything? Give me that gun!!' and you'd be like, no, sorry it's mine.. just having some fun. Or something. Haha.

[Gratefully Dead]

I literally had to pause my game when Carley went down and just took a few breathes. Like wow, that was a Walking Dead moment, Lol.

Also, that woman at the beginning of this episode. That one made me cringe because I left her to die and all of those screams. They really make sure you feel for her while you go after those cans.

[Luckycharm]

Kat and Duck's deaths got to me, especially when seeing the boy suffering and his mother probably feeling helpless to stop it. In the end, it's sad that they we didn't get the option to put their bodies closer together, albeit being able to give them a burial.

[WD40]

I'd say that Carley had made me the most emotional.

But, the part in the game that made me feel the most emotional was beating the crap out of the one St.John brother. I was just going to town on him, and I would've continued, until it gave me the option to walk away. Walking away felt many times more cruel, so I left him bloodied and broken for the walkers to finish. That was for sure the most that the game made me feel.

With Carley, I again did feel very emotional, and it even had a similar result. If the choices were to kill Lily or leave her like I did, I would have still left her. T'is a much crueler fate in such a place.

[RoboSheriff]

Ducks i just didn't thought he had to go so soon lol. Im sure ill miss him in ep 4

Katjaa she just took the easy way out i was like wow bloody mess, but ohh RIP Katjaa 2012 and thats it.

[Guibs]

Well it was Duck for sure. Being a father of 2 boys who are about duck's age, as soon as we knew he was bitten, I started to feel for him and his parents. When we finally had to kill him, I had tears to my eyes. It's rare that I get this emotional about a video game.

As for Carley, it was emotionnal, but more like a complete suprised. I was so pissed at lily that I don't think I even hesitated when I decided to leave her beind.

[StreetsAhead24]

I didn't vote cause I can't pick one..

I'm torn between Carley and Duck lol

[JabbaDaHuttX7]

Am I the only one that popped Duck without a second thought?

[Murasaki]

Am I the only one that popped Duck without a second thought?

*raises hand*

Don't get me wrong, I did feel a slight lump in my throat when he and Kat died. But during that moment in the game I was still so rattled by Carley's death I couldn't concentrate on anything else but that.

[TeleporterFIN]

It's been 2 days since I saw Carley die, and am still really sad about it..
back then I didn't even hesitate to leave Lilly behind, Carley's death has to be the most emotional thing I have gotten over fictional things, EVER. People die in other movies, games and stories, but this is the one that struck straight into my heart.
It's almost like I really knew her.

[Lars80]

When she died, I immediately said "No way!" and restarted the scene thinking there would be an alternative way. If anything, it serves to highlight the limitations of this type of video game.

Not only does this game have limited options along the way.
In Ep3 they killed most decision you made up until now.

I guess the game was just to complicated for telltale to handle.

[greenj2]

I actually laughed when Doug died, Lilly had such a "whoopsie" face on her I couldn't help, but do so.

http://youtubedoubler.com/4SPb

XD

[SupahFly]

The death of Carley made me so angry that I didn't hesitate at all if I should leave Lilly there on the road. I didn't even feel sorry for her when I saw that the zombies were coming for her.

Edit : I also restarted the scene and chose the option to blame myself hoping that I can save her.

[greenj2]

Carley's death had me sprint through shock, denial and murderous anger that later faded into loneliness and hopeless despair. Having Clem around was comforting, but Carley was the only adult character I liked and trusted 100%.

Duck's death was just thoroughly heartbreaking. Watching Kenny and Katjaa breaking down at the prospect of ending their son's life. Then seeing Kenny lose his entire family in a few cruel moments.

The fact that Kenny and I weren't on good terms at the time all this happened actually made it all that more profound. Differences were put aside and I couldn't help but feel only the deepest sympathy for the poor guy.

[Zombieface]

Doug D: I was thinking he'd die this episode, but not like that! I was really upset about Duck and Katjaa too! I was soo not expecting them to die this episode! I shot that zombie that was on top of them, and I'm thinkin "oh good, I think they're okay!" NOPE! Freakin Duck got bit! Then Katjaa shot herself.. I didn't see that coming.. I should. It was all so sad :( Ah man, then Clem woke up as a zombie, and I'm like WHAAAAT?! CLEM GOT BIT?! NOOOOOO!!!!! But it was just a dream! Phew! Poor Kenny.. I don't know why he's even still holdin on. lol. Beside's that my Lee has been his homie since day 1!.. Or I guess it was day 2 when we met Kenny :P

[Bcroft]

yea Carley died and I just kept telling myself that I'd be able to go back and save her, then after I learned that you can't, I'm not even sure what to say to that

[Demopan]

Duck's death hit me hard. I felt good that at least I never treated him like shit. Doug's death was the hardest for me though. This good, nice guy, a loyal friend, died because of his own nature and a crazy bitch who turned homicidal. Doug didn't deserve a death like that. No one does.

[Hudomonkey]

Doug's death was so sudden I wasn't sure he'd died
He gave up his life to save a traitor
Why Doug? WHY?

[Zeruis]

Seeing Carley's death was horrific, but Katjaa and Duck's death really stood out. Seeing Kenny crying was just too much for me.

[Magic Emperor]

To be honest, I think the rapid-fire deaths messed up Episode 3's pacing. When I lost Carley I was devastated and sad, and I still thought about her even when it came time for Katjaa and Duck's scene, and so the latter two's deaths didn't have as big of an impact on me as they should have.

But that's just my two cents.

But that's just my two cents.

You're not the only one to feel that way either. I just could not concentrate after Carley's shock death. I knew it would eventually come, just not at that moment.

[plaqueconspiracy]

In my first playthrough I thought Duck was annoying and needed to go. In my second playthrough I realized that he is just a innocent child when he helped Lee being a detective. Made me a bawww. Katjaa's death was the most f¤#ked up. Carley's death made a bigger impact because it was so unexpected to me. My Lee lost 2 good friends when Lily pulled the trigger.

[Wrighty]

Either Carleys or Ducks. Carleys for the sheer shock factor and because I thought lee might actually get to romance her. ):

Or Ducks because I grew to like the kid and because Lee and Kenny are bros and it really hurt to see him cry.

[Eric Northman]

A lot of the characters have died already, but Carley's death just broke my damn heart!

Honestly, Kenny's family shook me up the most. I mean, Kenny was just broken, all the light has gone out of his life, now. I felt like tearing up myself.

[SteveTheBlocks]

Doug's death impacted me the most, but i do say that Duck's death was also sad.

[Grimez]

Carly would have hit me harder if it dwelled on her death more. She essentially got shot, died and then we moved on. The most emotional part for me is when Katja shot herself because of Duck's death.

[Eric Northman]

Doug's death impacted me the most, but i do say that Duck's death was also sad.

My second time through, I had Kenny shoot duck, just to see the difference. It was horrible.

[Kelium]

When Carly was shot I screamed at the monitor like no you dumb b*** at Lilly for what she did, in my emotional rage I left Lilly on the side of the road to rot, that was one decision in the game where I felt very good about doing and didn't hesitate on. With Duck in my play through me and Kenny's family are on good terms because I have supported Kenny throughout the game. I decided to shoot Duck and I waited till he stopped breathing, it was very sad and I'm not going to lie I actually cried...

This episode was very intense, I was upset so many of my group have died and couldn't do anything to stop it. I will conitinue playing but Im not going to have such a close connection other with Clemintine.


Honestly, Kenny's family shook me up the most. I mean, Kenny was just broken, all the light has gone out of his life, now. I felt like tearing up myself.



I felt the same way, to be honest I am suprised Kenny didn't shoot himself after that horrible seen of despair. I really feel bad for his family and having no one else in the world.

[JPG619]

I go with Duck since I don't want the kids to die but since I can't control the outcome it made me sad to see him die.

[cme550]

Duck. He was just a child and didn't deserve it.

[chaz99]

Duck. It was the third death in a day, and was a cumulative effect of repeated, relentless emotional body blows.

Psychologically, Carley's death affects me the most. She save my (Lee's) life, like...at least four times. Every body else in the group (apart from Kat & Clem) are/were question marks, but not Carley. I didn't miss Larry one bit at all. I'm I'm glad Lilly is gone (for good, I HOPE). But Carley was a true ally and in the ZA true allies are gold.

And now she's gone. Hell, I was even thinking about it on my way to work. Jebus.

Your not alone haha, I was thinking about my play through this evening and started contemplating death after life and what happens to the ones we love. This episode was very good in a sense it got so many emotionally, I have never played a game where I felt so upset bc of a character/characters died. Very good work on Tell Tale and the Walking Dead writers part.

[Web Head]

Duck and Carley, obviously Duck's death was the saddest one, I almost cried when I saw him breathing fast while he was against the tree and his face was so whacked -_______- and when Katjaa killed herself for Duck as she loved him more than her life afterwards Kenny came to cry OMF* -________________- :( somebody will cry today...

[DreadMagus]

Carley's

Neither Kat's or Ducks had a real effect on me, I was still in a "wtf-mode" over Carley. Too many, too soon.

[Dead_Man_Walking]

To be honest, I think the rapid-fire deaths messed up Episode 3's pacing. When I lost Carley I was devastated and sad, and I still thought about her even when it came time for Katjaa and Duck's scene, and so the latter two's deaths didn't have as big of an impact on me as they should have.

But that's just my two cents.

Well, I like your two cents. That's actually how I felt, too. Makes me wonder how episode four is going to follow up.

I chose other. I think the bunny rabbit (Beginning of Episode two) was the most screwed up death. D: I didn't even get to eat him. I hope he comes back as a Walker and we can see him in episode four. Deep down, we all know that happy endings have rainbows, butterflies, a sunrise, pixie dust, rainbow farts and BUNNIES! :D

Seeing that dead rabbit made me feel like there was no hope left. <3

[Master of Aeons]

That's pretty much the point. It's shockingly bad, it's terrible, it's way worse, and the final step of it all is shooting the little boy who never shut up and now is quietly wheezing out his last moments. If you don't like the pointedly manufactured hopelessness of this episode, Walking Dead isn't for you.

[sparkzfly]

Seeing that dead rabbit made me feel like there was no hope left. <3

hahaha omg marry me.

[RedKoolLoops]

The gravity of Carley's death never really hit me until the latter stages of the episode.
I will admit that I am still sad about it but it was Duck's death that had the most impact on me at the time.

The whole scene. The talking and the lead up to it with Kenny pleading with Kat and of course, that bloody soundtrack. Kudos to the sound department, man. That music alone could've brought tears to a glass eye. Katjaa's death was simply salt in an already painful wound.

[donmike84]

im not gonna vote as i say it's a tie between kennys family and carley

[ZacTB]

Carley's death was more of a shock, Katjaa and Duck was more emotional.

[TMLC]

I think Carley’s death was probably the most shocking in the sense that I did not saw it coming.

But the saddest were most probably Duck’s and Larry’s because of the other characters involvement. Watching Lily trying to save her dad and Kenny facing the need to kill his son (and doing that myself into my game) had a deepest impact.

[Xarne]

none of them were emotional as in teary eyed

Larry death- relief
Doug- 'Doug, you ok?, Walk it off brah'
Kat and Duck: 'Oh snap, that just happened...this episode is crazy!'

As I'm realizing now, Doug was just fluff. Carley interacts with you more substantially in her episodes; saves your ass at the beginning of Ep2 with the dude in the pickup turning; gives you food; allows you to come clean in Ep3; she had your back like you had Kenny's.
Doug is hard to talk to, if he talks at all- he does make that alarm system at the motel but that's it. I picked him because the OBVIOUS choice was Carley so I figured, he must have been the hidden gem. No, he was just the illusion of choice for Ep 1.

[Cyreen]

Different person, different death, different emotion. I was shocked and angry when Carley/Doug died, hurt and a little guilty when Katjaa died because I didn't see it coming, sad but resigned when Duck died.

It is true that you can bond better with Carley, but Doug was not just fluff. He was actually my favorite character. He was a very nice person, heck, he got in the way of a bullet for a guy he barely even knew, he just didn't save you as often as Carley because he didn't like guns. On Ep2 he does hit David/Travis when he attacks you, but as it turns out, wooden planks aren't very effective against zombies. I guess I liked him because he was a character I could identify myself, my Lee, with, I feel like he was the only person you could actually count on, he just didn't have that many moments to shine.

I thought Doug was gonna build us a laser-guided walker killer or some anti-walker grenades...something McGuyver-ish. I was all 'ha! everyone picked Carley, lets show them, Doug!'...nothin.
When I replayed it with Carly; omg; so much interaction- she seems alive and part of the group.

[Zombies are Awesome!]

Carley is dominating the poll, and she should cause i agree. I was shocked beyond belief when it happened

[Viser]

Oh well. Just different opinions I guess. I've yet to do a playthrough where I save Carley, I plan on doing that after I finish all 5 episodes. But I don't know, I feel like Doug deserves a bit more attention, he was a very cool guy, and as I've stated on more threads than I can remember, I almost cried when Lilly shot him, but still couldn't bring myself to be mad on neither her nor Ben...

[Xarne]

Oh well. Just different opinions I guess. I've yet to do a playthrough where I save Carley,

oh...you'll be in for a surprise. I know you like Doug but you'll see the devs clearly spent their time on Carley

[Skythe1908]

Other: Lee axing his brother was the most emotionally charged death scene for me.

[Viser]

Other: Lee axing his brother was the most emotionally charged death scene for me.

Really? I find that interesting... we didn't get to know Lee's brother and family that much, so all I could do was feel a little sorry that Lee had to do that, but nothing else, really.

[RafaelBrasileiro]

Is the first time I feel sad, nervous and shocked by a character in a game die! Carley was the one who always saved lee, the person I trusted most (Clementine too), because until now I'm sad ...
But see kenny crying and kaatja dead beside him, and duck!that was sad too!

[Xarne]

lol ur going to video game hell

[Master of Aeons]

I'm taking all of you with me! *drinks nitroglycerine*

[Freeze]

Carley's and Ducks death were the most emotional for me. Kinda thought she said what she did cause knew Lee had her back. Doubt anyone expected Lilly to do what she did. I was shocked and had to pause the game for awhile but when Duck died I almost started bawling. I didnt shoot him fast enough and he actually turned! So sad :(

[Xarne]

2 people voted for Jolene :)

[Freshking27]

Katjaa for me, no doubt

[slough]

Duck, man. I was playing with my two younger siblings and they were kinda staring at me as I was crying as I shot him in the head. lol.

Kenny's my buddy so watching him grieve was extremely difficult. And Duck wasn't a bad kid either... maybe a little annoying, but his enthusiasm was heartening. I've played through the episode four or five times now and Kenny's reaction sets me off every time.

In terms of other people...
-Carley: Meh. She was really stupid for going off on Lilly. Not that she had it coming but she should have used her head there. She wasn't in my "canon" playthrough so I wasn't as attached to her as most of you are; her death ranks in value to about Jolene's in my book, no offense.
-Doug: What a great guy. I felt way more sad in this case because he died a hero in a way. And I was hoping that he'd pull off a badass move in a later episode, oh well.
-Katjaa: Her death was the most shocking to me... but it really made Duck's death more depressing more than anything.
-Larry: As much as I disliked the guy, as even though in my "canon" playthrough I help Kenny kill him... it wasn't an easy thing to do, especially watching Lilly scream and struggle the way she did.

[Cyreen]

I'm taking all of you with me! *drinks nitroglycerine*

No birthday bumps for you.

[darknessofheart]

Carley and Duck.

Carley because she was a trusted friend to Lee in my game and her death made it harder and harder to go on with the group, especially since she was murdered by someone in the group.

And Duck because it showed that even pure innocence stands no chance in this brutal reality that has been unleashed by God knows what. It really demonstrated that there are no lines this "infection" won't cross and implicates through Duck that even Clementine can very well be a victim. Overall, Duck's death brought up the possibility that someone as innocent and cute as Clementine can be turned and that is an incredibly disturbing and brutal reality; the last remnants of innocence is slowly being purged from this scarred world. I can't even imagine how this is all going to turn out now.

[Xarne]

Duck, man. I was playing with my two younger siblings and they were kinda staring at me as I was crying as I shot him in the head. lol.

Kenny woulda taken care of that for you, no problem.
At least he did in my game- took a lil coaxing but I got it out of him

[slough]

Nah, I couldn't do that to him. Maybe if I make a playthrough where I'm purposefully a huge dick to everybody, but I'd never force somebody to kill their own kid. Better me than him, especially when we've been buddies. I'd rather have Duck reanimate.

[Master of Aeons]

No birthday bumps for you.

What? Who's birthday is it? Did I miss cake? Was there a story about girls night out? I still get cake, right?

he's gonna throw it back in your face, watch lol
thats the only reason I made him do it

[Zombies are Awesome!]

No he won't Kenny is my boy! he would never do that, i always got his back!

[slough]

he's gonna throw it back in your face, watch lol
thats the only reason I made him do it

Katjaa said that killing Duck would be doing the family good, and Kenny has mentioned forgiving Lee due to Katjaa's opinion of him, so...

Although I didn't really think of Kenny killing Duck from a full-circle thing with Shawn/Hershel. Hm. Maybe I will make a playthrough for that because that's an interesting idea. Good thing I have this game bought on two systems lol

No he won't Kenny is my boy! he would never do that, i always got his back!
That too!

[Xarne]

No he won't Kenny is my boy! he would never do that, i always got his back!

Like when you didnt back him at Hershels farm after Sean dies (Ep2)
Like when you first enter the drugstore and Larry confronts Duck? (Ep2)
Like at the start of Ep2 when you dont agree with him he throws it back?
Anytime you dont blindly back him for your own personal reasons/beliefs best believe you'll get a reminder of it in the next ep- I know I have haha

[NessaT]

I was sad to see Kaatja go the way she did. I mean, there was no time to mourn over Carley because she died suddenly.

The whole Kaatja / Duck scene was build up slowly until it reached to a climax. That was pretty intense. I was prepared to lose Duck, but Kaatja - I didn't expect to lose her the way I did. It was very upsetting, hence, she gets my vote.

[Ajlan31]

Duck and Carley have the Saddest deathes IMO


But hey,... Its just a game :D

She was soon to be a Madre...I apologize, my Spanish nature escapes me when i am besides myself.

[littlezoe]

Katjaa. That was just sad.... she probably felt hopeless now that her son was about to die... i felt sad that she died :(

[Motordead]

Doug for me, It was the only part of the game that made me jump in anger at Lilly

[Cyreen]

As deeply sad as this game has made me on occasion, it hasn't made me cry yet, which I find kinda odd considering I bawled when Max died (not when they stole his brain). Someone really needed to knock Lilly on her butt, though.

What? Who's birthday is it? Did I miss cake? Was there a story about girls night out? I still get cake, right?

Yes.

[Master of Aeons]

Yes.

Happy Birthday to Yes, Happy Birthday to Yes...Happy Birthday dear Yes...

[ZombieBlaster]

RIP Maybelle

I bet that cow is dead, so it's appropriate to say R.I.P

[Cyreen]

Happy Birthday to Yes, Happy Birthday to Yes...Happy Birthday dear Yes...

That would be a good name. Just think of the possibilities.

[nublar93]

Carley's death is the most shocking. I knew that she and Lee will make a good couple but thanks to Lily we'll never see any more Lee and Carley moments. But I thinks this how things are in the world of The Walking Dead.

[Full of Regret]

A lot of the characters have died already, but Carley's death just broke my damn heart!

yes, mine too..... telltale! let me mourn! let me regret! please so i can move past it and keep going! crippled by emotional pain i am no longer able to play the game without feeling like i am the walking dead on the inside.

What episode are you playing?

[KennysBESTFRIEND]

Honestly...Carley...Carley should have reserved her words. I KNEW Lilly was a mental, ticking time bomb ever since Lee had found those opiates. Carley just pushed it way too far, so I braced myself for that. I was shocked, though.

Duck....oh man. I literally cried. I support and love the whole Kenny family, and seeing a father cry over his dead wife / mother of their son...that...that got me good.

I got very teary at the end of episode 3 when Clementine drew the picture of his family. I lost it.

[Xarne]

So we have a KennysBESTFRIEND and a Carley on the forums;
whats's next LarrysHeadeache, BensGuiltyConscience? lol

I am not afraid to admit I was upset when Duck was killed, here is my reaction to it.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DD7Dd_a8tp4&feature=relmfu

[Milosuperspesh]

oh cool mack is on the forums !!

for me carley's demise was sudden, unexpected and i wtf'd with shock not much emotion felt a bit angry maybe lol#

but duck you see it coming, you know someones got to do it, you see the termoil of the group to what has to be done, kenny and katjaa's reasonings strike it home.

then you see duck laying there slowly dying looking like shit then you have the choice do it yourself or make kenny do it..

Thats emotion..imho

[Rock114]

When Carley got shot, I paused the game, stumbled into my living room and babled something that made my cats look at me weird.

I broke down during the scene with Kenny bargaining with Kat after he stopped the train. Made me think of my own parents. I can't believe I managed do play the rest of the episode without stopping or pausing once. Cried when Kat and Ken took him into the woods and I had to explain everything to Clem. I was honest.

[Snake Liquid]

Like many others, I have to say Carley. Not to the extent of some players that are so furious they want to quit the game forever. I've been reading TWD for years, and I know that no one is safe already. It doesn't mean I don't get attached. I was attached to the character who... let's say 'departed'... in the 100th issue along with other characters that have died over the comics run so far. Hell, I am NOT looking forward to whenever Kirkman does decide to off Rick. I'm not sure I'll be able to continue the comic at that point, but I know it's coming and have kind of accepted it.

Regardless, I did have an emotional reaction at seeing it happen. I sat in stunned silence because I did not expect it to happen at all.

Frankly, I wish Carley hadn't died, but it was worth it. The emotional reaction I and many others had when Carley or Doug died means that Telltale did their job. They crafted characters that we care about so deeply that we are visibly shaken by their deaths.

[ChickVelcro]

Can't believe anyone is choosing Carley's death over Duck's.

Watching a kid like Duck slowly die in his mother's arms over a few scenes was so much worse than seeing Carley taken out by Lily. Carley's death was quite shocking, but watching Duck slowly turn grey and start wheezing was just gut-wrenching. Not to mention having to then kill him or have his father kill him.

I actually think there's something a bit wrong mentally with anyone who was more effected by Carley dying than Duck. Duck dying was seriously one of the saddest things i've ever seen in video games. Carley was a nice girl and all, but come on. Duck was a fun-loving, fairly simple, kid, who was running round playing Batman only an hour or so earlier.

Also, as for all these 'special bonds' and 'connections' with Carley. She fancied Doug until you let him die. She simply moved onto the only other eligible male in the group.

this 100%

[Sampz]

Doug and Duck, But i voted Duck because it was more emotional.

[DreadMagus]

Can't believe anyone is choosing Carley's death over Duck's.


The problem with Duck's death... is that it was the last in a string of character removals.

Had it been first, or by itself... entirely different situation.

[Cyreen]

Carley's death was shocking and inspired anger directed at Lilly and her dead became secondary to dealing with Lilly. It was too abrupt to inspire grief over the death itself.

[DreadMagus]

True. But it is the one that started the hellbound snowball rolling...

So when I think about where Episode 3 went wrong, that's where my mind goes first.

Maybe it's a primacy thing.

I saved Carley, was fond of her and I agree with you 100%.

[notbored]

I actually think there's something a bit wrong mentally with anyone who was more effected by Carley dying than Duck.

WTF?!?! Can you substantiate this?

Why everybody assumes that a childs death is always worse than an adult's is a complete mystery to me. It's still a question of sympathy. Yes, Duck's death is sad and remarkable for a video game, but I felt a lot closer to Carley.

If you thought Duck's death was worse than Carley's thats fine with me. But there are no objective reasons to favor one character over another, so stop psychologizing people like me.

[The_Cheshire_Cat]

Nobody. I haven't built up a emotional connection with any of the characters, besides maybe Lee and Clem.

I was shocked to see Carley get the bullet to the forehead but I didn't feel any kind of way about it.

[Geryk]

little angry to Lily on Carley's death(in episode 3). Katjaa and Duck's death make me cry.
Mark's death make me sad.
That's all.

[-Anna-]

Kaatja. I appreciated her neat accent, kind personality and her intelligence. Also her suicide was depressing to think about; like, not even being with her husband (of at least 10 years) was enough reason to live. Sadface.

Couldn't agree more. :)

[Rock114]

Carley's was more shocking than anything, while Duck's was just sad. Especially the way Kenny kept looking for a way to help Duck, like a cure or something and the way he kept denying that Duck was going to die until the last moments. Even when he accepts that Duck is a goner, the way he argues for something more "peaceful" instead of shooting his son was just heartbreaking.

[Jennifer]

Duck's was indeed sad, but Doug hit me the hardest. He was trying to be the voice of reason, and keep the peace, and he ended up taking a bullet that wasn't meant for him. It was truly a heart-breaking way for him to go.

[Zeruis]

Still wish Mark was around. The guy was a friend.

[rachellouise85]

I think kenny's will. I think he'll die in at the end of 4 (more likely in 5 probably). It's like they're building a good friendship with him, going through all the highs and lows (or lows, and lowers), having more stuff in common with him/interacting with him the most (other than clem) etc. then they'll rip that friendship, and one of the last links to humanity/normality/sanity away from me. Then I'll be trying to look after clem, and carry on, but inside, I'll be screaming "we're all going to DIEEEEEe. There's no hope left!!" and feel like giving up.

I didn't really feel anything at carley's death. More just numb, and wtf just happened?

[HeWhoHidesInTheDark]

I chose Duck. The funniest thing is that for the longest time it seemed like everyone hated Duck. If you were like me you would think things like "Shut up Duck" or "Get out of the way Duck." But episode 3 made me realize that anyone can die in this game. It also endeared Duck to me in a way I did not think possible. Choosing to be totally awesome and not leave him hanging or having a ward like Batman really made me like having him around for once. The loss of Carley was bad but at least I could cope since I got rid of Lilly. I think seeing how sad Kenny was over loosing his family is what made this so emotional. Having made the choice to shoot Duck for him made me realize just how hard this loss would hit me. The prospect of losing Clementine in such a way made this loss the most jarring and saddening.

[ozzmann]

My reaction at Carley's deat was to say" WTF!"

[TheGonza]

i was in shock with carley, came outta nowhere mid-sentence, I was upset and in a fucking rage with lilly, i left her, I still dont know if i made the right choice but i had to draw the line someplace. but very rare for a game to actually have emotional ties with characters, telltale games have done a fucking phenominal job on character creation.

[Luigi01080]

obviously it was lee's death... every dam time i miss a quick time event. But seriously it will be lee's death when he dies in episode 5.

[Phoenix VII]

My death. I was so pissed off at Clem when Lee got bit.:(

[DreadMagus]

Pissed... at Clem? O_o

[Macon Bacon]

Carley. Only because of the way it happened. Don't get me wrong it is amazing story telling but it's just bs that that is the way it had to happen. I expected nothing less of a bite to anyone or maybe shot by a bandit/stranger. But Carley's was just out of the blue. Unlike Duck and Katjaa, Carley's left me with a wtf as well as an aw shit.

[FollowLilly]

i actually cared more about Lilly leaving than any of the deaths : p
but anyways, Duck's was easily the worst, you can see him slowly falling apart, the whole sequence was really sad
and then his mother dies right in front of him, then his father starts talking about shooting him in the head with him sitting right there
ugh...
after that Id say Doug, kinda sucked that he died the way he did
Kat after that
then Larry
after that I dont even care at all
Carley was just some dumb broad who didnt know how to kick a walker off her foot

and btw, why is Shaun on the list, but not Mark?

[Phoenix VII]

Pissed... at Clem? O_oYeah, was. I'm passed that now, radio dude on the other hand....

[Macon Bacon]

You know despite what Lilly did to Carley or Doug I still wanted her along because she is strong and capable. Is she trustworthy? Yes to some degree. I mean she lost her damn mind and shot at someone. A mistake? A huge one yes but it wasn't because she didn't have a reason to. It was completely uncalled for and unforgivable but she did it with the right intentions. Because of that, she could be useful down the road. However, she steals the fucking RV so that made me look like a jackass by keeping her around lol.

[TheNNerdGamer]

My beautiful carley nooooo!!!!!!!

[SneakyWh1teMan]

i believe carleys death made most players(myself included) emotional because lee and carley were flirting and made it seem like a romance was going on, then that evil woman lily shoots her in the face in cold blood, pretty brutal if you ask me. i have to say on my other playthrough the doug death was also very emotional, he was a great assest to the group and gets executed in the back of the head saving stupid ben, ouch.

[SneakyWh1teMan]

RIP Chet:D

hahah poor chet:( i wish there was an option to save that banjo playing hobo, by far one of the greatest\short lived characters in TWD

[Feja10]

I think carley will back to life

[marcu5]

Larry

although i didn't see Carly's death coming, Kenny killing Larry caught me completely off guard

[QuarterPounderVlad]

Dougs.
Go Doug.

[ZombieBlaster]

Both Doug and Carley died a hero, right?

[KingOfTheDead]

Both Doug and Carley died a hero, right?

only Doug he pulled Ben out the way. Carly was straight up got shot.

[TheNNerdGamer]

people who hated Ben at the bell tower were like:
"I can't believe this, I can't let him go".

[TWDFTW]

A lot of the characters have died already, but Carley's death just broke my damn heart!

I think it was because she was always so trusting in you and when she started to show romance between her and Lee it really was going somewhere. I really liked Carley as a character, there was something about her that really made her special :)

[Willzy123]

Why isn't mark on here?

[Alanz]

Chuck's death made me the most emotional. From the point you find him dead in the sewers up until the end, simply because he's not mentioned once. He was such a cool guy. Poor magical hobo. He deserved better. :(

[mz3]

carley. carley......

[Ninnuendo]

Carley lead to stunned silence, Zombie Clem got a loud "Fuck me!"

[TWDFTW]

[HiggsBoson2142]

Larry. I'm one of the few that didn't want to bash his head in, but I did in the end...and I realized Dale was right in the comics and TV show. The group is losing their humanity. That this shit wasn't supposed to be messed around with.

[Demonseed]

Carly's death to me was most emotional, followed by Duck. Carly should not have been shot, that was the worst thing to do based upon a "hunch" which turned out to be wrong by Lilly anyway! She overreacted and let emotions play out over reason.

Duck and his mom was just as sad due to the impact of both dying....Katjaa was Kenny's life, as well as his boy. Losing both in the same day...

[ThinkSharp]

As far as "emotional" I actually have to say Shaun Greene.

There isn't as much time to form a connection with him or get to know him, but he is the one character that you pretty much have to hear scream "help me" while he's dying and you can't really do anything--that tore me up.

Even Duck, while that was horrible, just sat there.

What actually made me "lose it" wasn't a death though. It was when Lee got bit. I actually dropped the controller and just stared at the screen in complete shock with that. The choices I had to make immediately afterward almost didn't register. I had to tell myself, "OK. Time to press buttons now." Pathetic.

[ThinkSharp]

I'm curious:

Everyone who picked Doug/Carley is talking about when they got shot by Lilly right?

Because technically, Doug/Carley got killed twice. The first death being the death of the one you didn't pick.

[Cooperal]

Totally shouldn't have included Carley in the poll. To too many players Carley was the closest thing that they'd ever had to a girlfriend. The boards were overflowing with irrational "bring her back to life", "give us the chance to save her" and who could forget the ever so pathetic "maybe she survived the shot".

Duck had to be the worst for me. Katjaa was bad but I can't hold all sympathy for someone who kills themself, especially if it's the only way to make Kennys unbelievably horrific day even worse. I never had a reason to dislike Duck, he got on well with Clem, he thought I was awesome, it's sad to see that his death was at the hands of full-grown men. Those being the bandits and Ben (who technically isn't full-grown). His parents had to experience suffering through a much slower deterioration than most people should have to witness. And yet they tried every desperate thing that they could.

I felt Kenny had lost some marbles with the way he behaved during Ep.2 but he didn't deserve any pain as close to that.

[Perfect_Cell]

Going the non mainstream emotion of shock or sadness and going with anger/frustration.
The obvious choice that comes to mind is the St John brothers. Man when I was punching andy in the face over and over again, I could just feel lee's anger and my anger rising, letting out all our frustrations at how this had turned out. And oh the storm just made it so much better. It took all of my will power to leave those two alive.

[MoonFaerieJen]

I think it all depends on what you can relate to...

Episode 4...I know he was dead already, but digging up the dog was very uncomfortable for me. I really, really hoped I didn't have to do anything else to get the collar I looked away a lot. I lost my 14 year old dog this year, so that was very sad for me. I was even angry that they didn't bury the dog..
Then you go in the house and see how close this family was to their dog, the boy's love for his dog made me think of my love for my dog.
Seeing the boy was very horrible. When you learn about Crawford, I honestly assumed the parents left him for that place. I know thats not necessarily the case you don't really learn what happened to the parents...but that's what I felt so I got angry. I thought the parents left the boy with the dog. The boy ran out of food, the dog died so the boy did his best to bury the dog...I mean, the hole really wasn't all that deep. It made me think the kid must have done it.

What made me bawl like a baby was learning why you don't bury the dog...you bury the boy with the dog. And with each time you put more dirt on their bodies, the more emotional I got. I kept looking at the bodies, and it made me miss my dog so much. Because those two were best buds you knew that, and now they were together again.

[TheShooter]

Totally Carely's death, she made me cry and I barely find my self crying at things cuz I'm not usually an emotional person although I am a girl.

[KingOfTheDead]

Why isn't mark on here?

Because he was food that doesnt count

[AwkwardlyNERD]

Definitely Mark and Ben's deaths.

With Mark, I was in a state of trauma for about two months xD It was all I could talk about, and every time someone mentioned "cannibal" (which is a lot in my college) I would put my hands over my ears and go "Ahhh, cannibals :("

And with Ben... my heart died. I was really, REALLY sad, then I was just... empty. I cried a lot.

[AwkwardlyNERD]

Chet lives if you leave during the day
there hasnt been a single banjo seen yet in the series, so dont know where thats from

Chuck plays the banjo.

[Demopan]

Andy, if you just left him there, actually kinda hit home. I mean, we just killed his entire family and ruined his home, stripped away everything he owned and mashed his face up to boot. I've never seen a man so broken.

[LauriNicole]

I blubbered and cried a little when Carley and Lilly went out at the same time (I left her on the side of the road since she had lost her sanity). Those two are/were my favorite characters, and losing them both at once was tough.

I did the same when Ben died. Poor kid, even though I hated him at first, I grew attached to him.

[ZombieBlaster]

Those two are/were my favorite characters, and losing them both at once was tough.

I feel the same because I trusted Lilly all the way. That's just sad, seeing my two favorite characters gone. I sure do hope Lilly will appear in season 2 :D

[Scaeva]

Duck's death was the most emotional, in my opinion.

Carley's death was shocking, but it wasn't as depressing as watching Duck slowly begin to die while both Katjaa and Kenny were being torn apart by grief. The fact that Duck was just a kid, and his parent's were in the group, made his death far more emotional than Carley's. By the time Katjaa had committed suicide and I had Lee do the deed for Kenny, tears were flowing.

Only one game before had ever made me cry, and that was the end of Silent Hill 2. The Walking Dead got me twice. (Duck's death, and Lee's death)

[AnnaSan]

Duck's death made me depressed, talking some sense to Ken and seeing him cry just.... broke my heart :(

[zev_zev]

The St. Jihn Brothers. That was epic!

[Apex4thetime]

When carley was shot, I stopped playing and I'm not going any further. I really thought she was an awesome character, dunno why but i liked her

[pelham123]

Carley. I'd genuinely developed feelings for that girl, she had my back the whole time, she forced me to admit the wrong doings in my past to the rest of the group, I immediately went to her aid at the drugstore (and instantly lied saying that I was intending to save them both) I couldn't fucking believe when she died. Lilly had to go, no hesitation... I never even brought it up after with the others outside the train. They knew, we all knew. I tried my best to help Lilly, I really did, despite her asshole dad having decked me. But she killed Carley, and because of that, she had to go. Goddamn this fucking game has really affected me. Haha

[pelham123]

Andy, if you just left him there, actually kinda hit home. I mean, we just killed his entire family and ruined his home, stripped away everything he owned and mashed his face up to boot. I've never seen a man so broken.

I'm sorry man, but that guy was a cannibal. I beat the shit out of him, but I let him live, never trusted him from the moment I laid eyes on him, he had a George Bush Jr. thing going on for himself. I gave him a fate worse than death, reflection... but to be honest, it was really the transference of anger, residual self hatred, having failed to stop Clem from eating, The Meat.

[King Cam72]

I think Ben's was the most tragic, he was given a chance to prove himself to Lee and the group, but he never got far enough to.

[Sickle5]

Am I the only one that thought Lee's death was sad? Just how him and Clementine were talking, the fact that she needs to do everything on her own now. I teared up

[KennyTWD]

-Duck. God damn it! That damn walker just HAD to be there. Thank god Lee shot it.
-Carley/Doug. Mostly just went "What the fuck did she do? >:L)
-Kat. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
-Ben. Damn kid. Hated him because he kiled my family, but after I heard his story, there was nothing to do but apologize.
-Larry. TROOLLOLOOLOLOLLOOLLOOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO

[Wynne]

Duck's, because it was so slow and painful, watching his parents suffer, and little mister bright-eyed and bushy-tailed was just lying there all wheezy and gray in his mommy's arms... and I...

*lip wobble* Dammit! It's not fair! He was supposed to grow up and mature and become a cool guy like his dad and marry Clemmy!

...no, it's just allergies. Really. *sniffle*

That is one of the most disrespectful things I've ever read in my life. Is it so unbelievable that so many people liked her and her death invoked those reactions simply because they thought she was a good character.

[Fedzz]

Am I the only one that thought Lee's death was sad? Just how him and Clementine were talking, the fact that she needs to do everything on her own now. I teared up

Most of these replies were before the last episode was released I think. Lee's death was the saddest for me, never cried over a video game until the death of Lee.

:(:(:(

[Frozen-san]

*SPOILER* Why is Lee not here? The only death that really made me cry was his. Carley's death just made me want to torture Lilly, and Duck's wasn't too bad. But it made me so sad that Kaatja killed herself.

[double_u]

If Lee was on the list, definitely Lee. The entire scene was intense and a tear jerker. In the meantime, Carley had the most effect on me because she's my favourite character in the group. It was sudden and shocking and it effectively squashed the possibility of a brighter future. It served as a reminder of the brutal TWD world after the writers set the player up for disappointment with a romance arc that suggested a brighter future was possible. This is probably why so many are upset. I definitely felt things were a lot more dark after Carley.

[CarleyandLeeTWD]

(Just felt like copying instead of quoting so I did)

A lot of the characters have died already, but Carley's death just broke my damn heart!
When Carly died I shouted at my monitor. It was depressing.
__________________________________________________

Me too, f that soab lilly. I immediately said (f you soab lilly and wanted options to you know kill her?) it was also shocking and depressing. i didnt play for days and thought about that scene until now o.0

[JordyLicht]

The death of Lee gave me swollen eyes... Especially since Clemetine was alone after that and you could tell the ending of the game was near.
Beautiful ending, beautiful death.
So yeah, Lee's death was the 'best' in my opinion.

[CarleyandLeeTWD]

I dont think her as dead. the bullet went in her jaw/cheek. So what?
You cant die instantly. I bet the group could patch her up.

Carley's death was the one that made my jaw drop. and like what the first post said, break my heart? She had a great personality, good looks, etc. What a great character. She needs to be recognized more. (I don't think she's overrated, cus she deserves recognition for saving her life, and for being a great person)

[SeriousScar]

Yeah nothing top's Lee's death, that was sad. Duck's was most tragic. That poor kid was looking at his dead mother, probably saw her kill herself and then watched as the gun was pointed at him and he was put down like an animal. What a horrible way to go. At least Carley's was a quick death, she never knew what hit her.

[aaron1290]

i vote st. johns, shaun, larry and irene and mark and even the walkers and even beatrice

[Lego]

I was so pissed when I couldn't figure out way to save Carly! Worst death and it really made my choice meaningless in episode 1 to save her or Doug!

[Mornai]

Yeah nothing top's Lee's death, that was sad. Duck's was most tragic. That poor kid was looking at his dead mother, probably saw her kill herself and then watched as the gun was pointed at him and he was put down like an animal. What a horrible way to go. At least Carley's was a quick death, she never knew what hit her.

Even worse, if you give Kenny the gun. Seeing his own father aiming a gun between his eyes, and(without intervention) walking away and leaving him to turn.

[CarleyandLeeTWD]

I'm sure that most players said something like: "WHAT THE F*CK when their favorite character died." Haha.

When Carley died I was like: "WHAT THE F*CK DID YOU DO (Directed to Lilly), YOU STUP*D PIECE A' SHIT? Kind of reminds me of Andy St. John's reaction when Lee lies/tells him that both Danny andBrenda are dead.

Duck's too. But I didn't really react much, since I knew he was bitten. But seeing the poor boy who hasn't lived out his life yet much die, that's something sad to see.

[bballman96]

100% Carley. I expected Katjaa's death. Carley's was too sudden. And to add salt to the wound, Carley was your one true friend. Everyone else vascillated b/w kind and douchebag (except Clem, Duck and Katjaa).

[Psyconix]

I agree with the people who said that Carley's death went very fast and it has been more unexpected than emotional. I don't mean that I wasn't shocked when she died, but the scene didn't pack me emotionally.

I think the death of Duck was very emotional, because the whole scene was very powerful initiated. You go there to meet Katjaa and have to witness that she ended her life to get out of this horror. I then gave Kenny the gun to kill Duck and the overall scene was very emotional I think.

[BenIsKindaCool]

Lee's,Ben's,Kenny's and Duck's ...God,on their ''dying moments'' I wanted to kill all the zombies in zombie universe.. -.-

[Hudomonkey]

Lee just because of Clem...

[Corcline27]

Duck..If you wait long enough he stops breathing and his eyes are fixed on you. its very sad.

[McGrory456]

Mine is Ben, I can not explain why this death affected me, as I was the one who dropped him. But as you see him fall, and eventually teared apart by walkers. It was awful, I would of much rathered sent him off much quicker, but I do not regret killing him, as I feel he redeemed his mistakes by deciding it would best if I left him. To be honest I didn't particularly like Ben, nor did I dislike him I just thought of him as a careless teenager but even the music as you look away is saddening much more than any previous death ( I have yet to play episode 5 having just completed episode 4.)

[Uadude97]

Lee. With Clem the gunshot and then dark. I dropped the controller
and declared this the best game I have ever played. Then the credit
song kicked in. Good games wow you with visuals. Better games
have challenging gameplay. Great games elicit an emotional response
that you'll want to tell others about. Telltale please don't disappoint
with season 2.

[Rambo297]

Lee . it was really hard for me...

[CarleyandLeeTWD]

100% Carley. I expected Katjaa's death. Carley's was too sudden. And to add salt to the wound, Carley was your one true friend. Everyone else vascillated b/w kind and douchebag (except Clem, Duck and Katjaa).

One true pairing. If both Lee and carley survived I bet they'd marry and raise Clem. Would've been heartwarming to see that. ( considering most wanted that)

[Danno123]

Everyone who has put Carley I hate you so much it's unbelievable.
Anyway,

**SPOILERS**


It would have to be Lee's. I cried for a damn hour. LITERALLY.

[Phil_TWD]

Game: Carley
TV: Merle

The Walking Dead has that effect on people!

[ZeroShoot]

As Clem said "Don't Go..." fuck... I was done... if you know what I mean, hands all wet... and stuff. That music in the background was so great too, and the ending theme didn't exactly help my feelings, I was crying like a damn bitch, but I'm man enough to admit that... But Lee's death is not up for vote in the poll so I have to go with Duck's death, for the reasons SeriousScar and Mornai gave some posts earlier.

[JakeSt123]

Ben & Ken.

TV: Merle
Some people haven't seen the episode yet! :O

[crispy01]

Ben & Ken.


Some people haven't seen the episode yet! :O

Hence why it's blocked out. Also, I don't think people realise that there are different release dates for TV shows based on region. The only time you realise are times like this where people see it, post spoilers, and the people who can't see it yet get annoyed.

[Phil_TWD]

Ben & Ken.


Some people haven't seen the episode yet! :O

Okay, but this is the spoiler section after all.

[Mark$man]

I put other for the last person to die in the game... R.I.P...

[crispy01]

Was this thread made before episode 4? There are a few dead people not on the poll.

[walking dead lover]

When I saw Lee,s death,I was thinking about it all the day and I could not stop thinking about it.:(:(

[Viner16]

Lee
Ben
Larry
Carley
Doug
:(:(:(

[The Fallen]

Its not a simple question to answer, they were all good at getting a different emotional reaction from me.

For sadness: Lee saying goodbye to Clem, Kenny standing over Kats body and realising we still have to deal with Duck, horrible moments.

For Guilt: Dropping Ben, Having to leave Doug.

For Shock: Carley, Also the horror of Mark's death, i was pretty sure he was dead, but never expected the true horror.

Overall which got the biggest reaction from me? I would have to say Carley. I lost probably my favourite character in an instant, no chance to say goodbye, no heroism. She was murdered suddenly and pointlessly, it still hurts a little even now.

Lee is obvious choice, but i knew what was coming from that bite scene, i always suspected the arm chop had come too late, and i knew i was going to have to explain it to clem, and so i was braced for it and battle hardened by everything that had happened to get this far. Still a close second.

This forum is therapy for me :p

[Clemmy1]

THE ST JOHN BROTHERS??? Hahaha who voted for these people,i didn't enjoy Ducks death as i treated him more special as he was a child.

[mrkareemruiz]

Where is LEE on this LIST, WTF IS THIS? RIP LEE!

[mrkareemruiz]

Lees was more sad then the others

[Mark$man]

This forum is therapy for me :p

I agree to that lol

[smokeyythabear]

*Carley will remember that*
Great for shock value, but it kind of ruined the game for me, because it just made it seem so depressingly linear. This is a game about choices, but your choices don't really matter: you can never save Dough or Carley, you can't save Duck, you can't save Katjaa, you can't save Mark, the game gives you plenty of choices but in the end it ends up the same. No matter what happens, by the time you find Omar and Christa: Katjaa, Duck, Carley, Doug, Larry, and Mark will be dead. Lilly will be MIA (hopefully dead). You will always come to that point in the game when it's just you, Clem, Ben, Kenny, and that hobo guy (I forget his name).

[RabidMonkey]

Emotional ws Duck. But the death that hit me the most was Carley. Mainly because she was my favorite character in the game and wanted to see more of her.

I actually stopped playing for the longest time because I was so annoyed that we couldn't save her no matter what we did. By far the most shocking but would've preferred someone else dying in the scene

[GREYxDUZxKRUSH]

a toss up between Carley and Duck.
This.

[Rommel49]

Does relief count? Because if so, Ben and Duck.

Couldn't stand the latter's nails on chalkboard voice; I'm positive that the good folks who make Excedrin bribed Telltale to include Duck to sell pills.

:p

[Simonov]

Other then Lee's death it's a tossup between Carley and Ben.

At the time of Carley's death she was one of my favorite characters and she was murdered for no good reason.

A lot of people don't like Ben because of how many times he messed up and indirectly hurt/killed other characters, but the way he died was probably the most horrific to me.

[rivonirina]

When she died, I immediately said "No way!" and restarted the scene thinking there would be an alternative way. If anything, it serves to highlight the limitations of this type of video game.

Carleys' death is chocking,:eek: and I just wanted to immediately kill Lilly ! but what makes the most anger is that there's no way to prevent Lilly from shoting her !! :mad:And THAT is nonsense :confused:! Because the basic of that game actually is that the choices and decision you make lead the way that your adventure happens ! So, where the hell are the decisions that can make us save Carley or just make her not be shot by Lilly on that road, that night, at that moment ?!!! That game should give us the feeling that "Hey, I am in the story, I have the power of decision ! it's great !". But actually, with Carley's death, you just feel like you dont have any power of decision !!!

It would be VERY usefull that Tell Tale Just explain us WHY they did it like that. I think many of us would really want to understand the aim of Tell Tale about Carleys' death. :confused:

[Mornai]

It would be VERY usefull that Tell Tale Just explain us WHY they did it like that. I think many of us would really want to understand the aim of Tell Tale about Carleys' death. :confused:

Edit:Here we go:
It feels (to me at least) like Lee had power over the things he would realistically have power over, and is frustrated by the things he can't change. We don't want players to feel cheated, but we also don't want them to feel like they are the all-powerful gods of the universe who can change the story and other characters to do whatever they want. In real life would "pouring affection" into someone guarantee that they do what you want? I don't think so! Only in video games is that allowed, and it starts to fall apart if you want to have NPCs who act more like real people, with their own wills and whims separate from yours.

It's a balancing act for us, for sure -- how much does your will as the player actually change the course of other characters and the plot -- and I won't say that where Season One landed is perfect. We have a long way to go and a lot more to work with to get that balance and feeling right. There's always room to improve and to try new things. The Wolf Among Us pushes this in new directions which I think you'll find exciting, and of course with future Walking Dead games we will be playing with and tweaking how the player's balance of power works. We won't be going back and re-doing Season One, though!


Personally i think it's good to have some events like this. Just as in life, you can't control everything, and there are going to be situations that you can't prevent. I wouldn't want to feel like a god who had complete dominion over everyone's lives and decided when people would live or die.

It would have been nice to have a little more effect on the situations where we did get to choose a decision, but maybe those will have an effect on Season 2 in some way.

[CarScar]

Carley raping the poll, fuck yeah!

[Advanced]

As Clem said "Don't Go..." fuck... I was done... if you know what I mean, hands all wet... and stuff. That music in the background was so great too, and the ending theme didn't exactly help my feelings, I was crying like a damn bitch, but I'm man enough to admit that... But Lee's death is not up for vote.

This x9001

[Domingez]

The saddest and most emotional was Lee's death, later Kenny and Ben. Most shocking death which filled me with anger afterwards was Carleys.

[mrkareemruiz]

why Lee not on this listen wtf

[Mornai]

why Lee not on this listen wtf

I think this poll was made before the final episode was released, so that might explain why Lee's not in it.

[Natsumi]

Carley's made me snap because it was so unexpected and happened just cos Lilly couldn't keep her damn temper. :(

Mark's was the most upsetting because they had locked him up and were torturing him to death. That episode made me really squeamish...

[SLH1222]

It has got to be Ben and Kenny's when they die together. Kenny goes out something some people call...a hero.

Also, Irene's death was quite sad. (The woman in episode one who wanted to commit suicide)

[The Girl From Aus]

Seriously why would you have the brothers in the poll and not kenny!!! Gawd.... Yes I lost myself over Kennys death :(

[Rock114]

I'm pretty sure this poll was made before Episode 5, which is why I voted for Duck. I'd change it to either Kenny or Lee though, because they were bros in my game and seeing both of them go in the same episode really got to me.

[michikade]

I know this poll was created before my first choice died, but here's my reasoning anyway.

I had to pick Other because it was Lee - not necessarily because he died, but because of the last conversation. That was so hard to watch - I could put myself in both Lee's shoes, only worried about Clem being OK, or I could put myself in Clem's shoes, watching her father figure die minutes after seeing her real parents as walkers.

Second was probably Duck. Kenny's "death" got me because I wanted to see him through to the end, but watching Katjaa and Kenny watch their little boy die was heartbreaking. You could literally watch them go through all of the stages of grief throughout the episode. And then when you come across the little boy in the mansion - watching Kenny's face was tough.

[Bioshock Infinite WD]

I have cried at many points, I cried when Carley died, not on the spot but when Katjaa talked about her. I cried when Ben and "Kenny" died, and of course the end.

[Natsumi]

Carley: I was horrified at the suddenness of her death, and how it came from within the group. (no regrets leaving Lilly behind. No way I'm having Clem around a crazy woman who shoots people in the head over an insult)

Kenny: In my playthrough he sacrificed himself to save Christa. Just made me tear up since there was that symmetry to it; he couldn't save his own wife and child so he gave up his life to save another man's wife and child....

And now that I'm done....

Lee: I decided not to make Clem kill me. Seems kind of pointless, but I spent my game building my relationship with her and I didn't want her to have to kill someone she liked.

Katjaa: Poor woman :(
