Shooting the Girl in the street

[DreadMagus]

I saw her get bit, so I used her as a distraction.

Wasn't kind, but I had people to feed.

[littlezoe]

I shot her to not make her suffer.

[-Anna-]

I tried to shoot the walker on her, but the bullet curved to her head...

But I'm glad it happened, anyway. One less person suffering and one less walker in the world. c:

What's so difficult to understand? I shot the girl because I still have some humanity left. Kenny wouldn't, but I'm sure that he will pull a Shane on me if his life depends on that.

If you shoot the girl, Kenny will proudly confess to the group. There's a difference between doing what's necessary and bragging about it. Kenny is an idiot. Even his wife doesn't agree with him.

Shot the girl. That was a pretty sick idea Kenny suggested. Let a terrified girl die in agony so we can have a little more time to loot Lee's parents store. Just sad. Where is the dignity of men? Have we sunk this low?

Collected 12 items. Lilly was pleased with the haul and a fellow human being did not have to be used in an inhumane way to do it.

I left her ... I would not kill someone I'd never met, and kill her? would not bring any benefit!
It is a bad thing, but necessary, I had to get the maximum possible supplies for my group!

[DarkCrisis]

At the end game rankings with other players I was honestly shocked that the majority (by a lot) left her to die in agony.

Where was the humanity and mercy?

So. What if you shoot the girl, attract the walkers and you both die in the drug store? The supplies never make it back to the group and that's that.

You put a stranger out of her misery sure, but you are now dead. The rest of the group is probably dead as well. And I don't want to hear "oh.. well that didn't happen", because at the time it's a damn good possibility that it could happen.

There was nothing MONSTROUS about what Kenny suggested at all. It was a good suggestion for the good of the group, and our group is more important than a stranger who is dead anyway.

Were you going to shoot all 10 walkers and risk a herd? Maybe drag her into the drug store so she can turn while you're looting supplies, or maybe drag her back so she can turn in the compound, with walkers in tow.

My thought was to get rid of as many walkers I possibly could and give her a chance to fend for herself - for whatever time she had left. I wasn't about to shoot her, let alone leave her to die with all those walkers around her. Yet the game decided for me, what a shame.

Who knows, maybe she would have had a chance to escape and have the herd of walkers go after her.

once I saw the bite, I stopped wasting bullets

[Milosuperspesh]

she gets bit even before you have the option to shoot her..

so other than the screaming leave her alone

[Xarne]

and try for a 20 item supply run

Yami, I played through that the other day and I didn't see Kenny beaming with pride - I saw him leveling back disgust. He brings up the girl in town to illustrate to Lilly that Macon is a waste of time - that it is about time to leave (counter to her suggestion to stay through the winter).

Based upon the choices with Kenny regarding his own son, I am confident that he will do what is necessary for the survival of the group. Anyone who isn't disappointed of what the ZA has made them do - of what they have become, is insane. EVERYONE has done something unscrupulous in the name of survival.

[Viner16]

Left the girl, she should've ran straight instead of in circles.

Got 20 supplies though, but I don't see how that affects the story besides a bit of dialogue.

Proudly confess??? Wut?

Kenny said what had happened to illustrate how bad things were in Macon now. He was basically sayin the only reason we got what we did was because a poor girl died. He wasn't proud about it at all.

Bites are 100% lethal and you can not save her. People will get non-zombie illnesses and when cholera spreads amongst your group, tell me how merciful it was to shoot someone who was going to die five minutes after you met her instead of getting enough antibiotics. There are no 'best' options in TWD universe.

Two episodes earlier.

it would have been selfish of that woman to have asked (if she somehow could) us to risk our lives to end hers sooner, i gave irene the gun no risk to me and the only cost was one bullet, but i left the woman on the street to die, because the risk to us far outweighs any reward she could gain

[Cyreen]

There was just as much chance of Irene drawing walkers as the girl in the street. Lee was at risk at that point anyway if he couldn't get over trailer(with or without Kenny's help). Kenny was fine. Worse case scenario, Kenny leaves the pharmacy for another day and leaves Lee to be munched, but that could have played out whether Lee took the shot or not.

seriously there was a small risk with irene since you had killed the nearby zombies, the woman on the street had the dead hanging off her
