Quoted from PanzerFreak:With Stern choosing not to include anything about the shows characters in the game they are taking the human aspect of the show out of the theme and leaving the game to be centered around guns and death ... Don't get me wrong I love The Walking Dead TV show but I'm not sure I can see having the game in my home with my wife and I starting a family one day.
That's a valid concern. I'm hoping there will at least be a family mode that dials down some of the most gruesome stuff.
