* GameBreakingBug: ''The Sledgehammer.'' The moment you pick it up (and to make matters worse, several times you start with the damn thing) your melee attack is disabled, and if a zombie grabs you, you don't get grabbed properly, leading to you continually losing health without being able to push the zombie away (button mashing will just have the counter go into the negative), meaning that four zombies touching you is a guaranteed death sentence. While it can be remedied if you only pick it up by swapping it with another weapon, if you start with it, these problems won't fix themselves until the next mission.

This could have spawned a whole lot of different storylines, such as a rift being formed between Rick's group and the Greene Family or Rick and Shane turning on each other earlier, but unfortunately the outcome is exactly the same as if the player chose to save Carl, just with Hershel's daughter in his place. The game carries on as usual, and [[ForgottenFallenFriend Carl is barely even mentioned]] during the prison arc.

** To a lesser extent, his father Morgan is hit with this as well. He does make an appearance, but only once in the story and is never seen afterwards. It couldh have been nice opportunity for him to become a part of Rick's group earlier than in canon and perhaps even solve the conflict at the farm/prison differently.

* FanPreferredCutContent: A storyline that hasn't made it to the final game has Merle be stranded on the rooftop like in canon, except a girl saves him right before he cuts off his arm. Then he would grow attached to the girl's group of friends and [[HeelFaceTurn end up becoming their protector]]. Many fans expressed their belief that had this storyline not been left out, it would have made the game much better.

** Related to the above, if the player has Shane kill Rick, he basically just takes Rick's role down to his iconic beard and jacket combo. He still leads the group to the prison and the game more or less plays out with the same setpieces as the show. It would've been more interesting to see Shane lead the group somewhere not covered by the show, or somewhere that wouldn't be explored on the show until much later.
