Playing the walking dead overall was very interesting for me. I went into the game not knowing what to expect at all because I had never seen the show and I didn’t even know it was a video game. The only thing I assumed is that there would be a decent amount of death considering the word death is in the title. I was not a huge fan of the ending because it was such a tough decision. I had to choose Clementine to shoot Lee and it was very difficult for me to do. I felt like it was a huge plot twist to the ending despite me feeling bad for Clementine. It intrigued me that they would want such an important character to be killed off, but I guess that means it was a great ending because it was so unexpected. I personally do not think I would change anything because I feel like at the time, I was making the best decisions. It is easy to say I would do something different after you know the outcome so I do not think I would change anything.

If I had to pick somebody that affected my decisions the most I would 100% say Clementine. The game makes you favor Clementine in a different way than you would with anybody else. It is also helping that she is young so that helps with how we feel about her.

In the chapter it says, “In a game, a nonplayer character can make a joke that lightens the mood during a slog, provide assistance in the nick of time, even sacrifice himself so that players can carry on and win the day.” This is basically saying that non player characters can act completely different then the actual characters. This can put a complete turn on the game so that the players morales change.
