Telltale Games

If the first season was about raising a child amidst the most unfriendly of environments imaginable, maybe the second season could be about having to decide between holding on to your sense of idealism and integrity in the face of such bleak odds, or succumbing to the savagery unfolding all around you, simply because that's the only "realistic" way to continue living.

Perhaps by the end of season 2, the gamer would face a different kind of choice; the PC could die once again, but in doing so retains his/her decency even after the rest of the human race has abandoned theirs, or survives the final episode, but at the cost of his/her soul, so to speak.

That theme was always there but it wasn't brought to extremes. I think in this scenario it's more of a "will you become a bandit to survive" type of thing. Someone who openly steals from others, kills them etc. to keep themselves(and their group) alive.
