Decision Making In The Walking Dead

Is it mercy killing when a man kills an animal if they are no longer useful? Or is it the right thing to do for a man to kill a person who is on the verge of turning into a zombie? Well in the video game “The Walking Dead” there are decisions that are made that can hurt or help you and the group that you may be put in. You would think that in a crisis situation you would make the right decision. But we realize that we question our decisions after they are made and we sit there and hope that they turn out to be good or bad for us in the short or long run. This game really makes you question your decision making and makes you think twice before you want to take charge of a group of people that you can barely trust. In the first the episode
Lilly is one of the survivors that was added to the group and she was the paranoid one out of all of them. Eventually the groups makes it out of the motel in a RV and while they are traveling to south Georgia they run over a zombie and they pick up a straggler teenage boy name Ben. Lilly instantly doesn't not trust the kid and she decides to confront him and my character Lee is trying to get her to calm down and she continues to interrogate to the fullest and Carly who is also in the group insults her about being paranoid and having trust issues. After Carly insults her Lilly shoots Carly right between the eyes and kills her and my character Lee is left with a decision to keep her in the group or leave her. I chose to leave her because she didn’t have to shoot her because she felt insulted even though tempers are high there was no reason for someone who is completely healthy to be shot and killed. There was nothing about that act of killing right. I could understand if you accidentally shot her but even then I would need a legitimate reason how that happened as well. At the end of the episode the game said that 57 percent chose to keep in the group and let her stay, and 43 percent chose to kick her out. I was definitely going to kick Lilly out right after she killed Carly. She couldn’t even come up with a good reason on why she did
After I wake up a little later, I am given a choice of whether or not I should chop off the bitten arm. I chose not to chop off my arm. For the amputation to be effective, my arm would have needed to be chopped off right after I got bitten. Additionally, I wanted both of my arms to deal with Clementine’s captor. However, 71 percent of players chopped off the arm, while 29 percent left it alone. The reason why most people did is because they hoped that the infection did not spread past the arm, but unfortunately, it did. Chopping off the arm does help. It slows down the infection a little bit, but it does make it harder for my character to move around. When I kept the arm, my character almost passed out a couple of times while escaping from zombies, but that was the only problem I had with keeping the arm. Honestly, there was not an optimal choice for this decision. There were pros and cons with both decisions, but the end result was the same; armless or not, I was going to
