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.
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.
