>Kate was finally back in her dorm once more. Poor girl, she was nearly bullied to suicide, all because she was drugged at that Vortex Party by who knows what… but Kate was back, and that’s all that mattered, right? Kate’s bunny Alice certainly didn’t think so however. Alice was too busy thinking about how her friend Lisa was doing; Max’s attractive plant that she was able to keep alive by watering it just enough each morning! Kate had plans to go hang out with Max tonight to go searching for clues as to exactly who drugged her and how, but this wasn’t of Alice’s concern. Alice had only one thing on her mind, and that was the luscious, soft green leaves that only Lisa could grow.

>“Okay Alice! You be good while mommy is gone, I’ll see you soon!” Kate said in an upbeat tone as she left the door to her dorm creaked open a bit by accident. Alice saw this opportunity, as she clawed gently at the side of the metal bars of her cage, desperately hoping that she could get out to see her one true love.

>After about an hour of searching, Alice finally found a spot in her cage that she could gently slide open with her paws and squeeze through. Yes! Alice gave a little victory hop out onto the table where the cage lay, and down onto the floor. Approaching the door instilled some worry in the poor fluff ball’s mind, as she nudged it with her nose. But alas, the door was only opened a small bit, leaving hardly a space for the rabbit to inch her claws in to open the door. Alice’s nose twitched in disappointment as she frantically hopped about the room, trying to think of another way. Suddenly, the door seemed to breeze open, just enough for Alice to hop through. What? Alice chose not to question this, before she squeezed her body just through the space in the door, and hopped out the other side.
>>
2/2

>The dorm rooms were seemingly quiet, nobody was arguing or yelling, locking each other inside of rooms; it was strangely still. Perhaps everyone had gone to another Vortex Party? Whatever… Alice had to get to Lisa’s room! Briskly hopping over to Max’s room, she nudged the door open with her body and happily hopped in up to Lisa. Her leaves were so bright and beautiful… her pot fit her just perfectly as she stretched towards the ceiling. She was even more beautiful than Alice remembered… its been forever since they’ve hung out! Lisa gave a knowing sway of her leaves as a small breeze battered against Alice’s ears, as she gave a small twitch. Did Alice breeze open the door? Would it really be so far fetched to think that Lisa could open the door if Max could rewind time? Alice certainly didn’t think so. Life certainly is strange…

>Alice gently hopped up into the pot, being careful as to not bump Lisa’s leaves or stem as she nuzzled up to one of Lisa’s sweet smelling leaves. With a small lick, a blush spread to the rabbit’s cheeks as the leaf tickled her nose in return. It was okay that the world was falling apart around them… animals were washing up on the beach, storms and strange weather plagued the area, and their owners seemed more than stressed. But, none of this mattered to Alice right now, she was safe under Lisa’s protecting, comfortable hug of her leaves, and that’s all Alice could really ask for. Alice nestled down in Lisa’s pot, minding the placement of her claws as she laid down next to the plant, giving one last loving lick to Lisa’s stem before drifting off into a heavenly sleep in Lisa’s tender embrace.

I'll make friends with someone who has a PS4. Bloodborne sounds interesting, but I've never been a fan of Sony's consoles for whatever reason.

>The main issue is that the game puts atmosphere over actually making the game functional, you'll be tasked with collecting something but given no indication where it is in the world space. This is especially annoying considering how painfully slow you move.
That sounds kind of like the Evil Dead game awhile back. There was little to no direction. My friends relied on my guidance to finish the game. I lost interest pretty quickly, despite being a fan of the franchise.

>>168015415
>Considering her bitter or broken is an insult to her struggle and strength and will to happiness, her lively, vivid and bouncy nature.
That's how she acts around Max. With Joyce and David, she's far less happy. She's still bitter and unduly angry at Max sometimes. It wasn't her choice to leave Arcadia Bay.

>Terrible interpretation.
Incredible criticism. I thought you were going to stop responding to my posts?

>>168018038
>Goddamn, this is the thirstiest, most pathetic thread I've ever seen.
There's a definite element of that in the game, but not all /lisg/ers are that bad. A few are capable of stepping back from their lusty attractions to the characters and analyze the story. The richness of the characters and storytelling up until the last episode were incredible. A bad ending ruins what was created in the moment, but not when considered from a distance on their own.

What are you talking about? The first four episodes of Life is Strange brought Dontnod back from fiscal ruin. Max and Chloe were the focus of the first five episodes.

I'm expecting a return at the end of Season 2.

So I just started this game because I got it from Humble Bundle and why did it attract so much hate again from /v/? I am like rock hard with all the QT girls everywhere
>>
>>168037660
>Meant to say "Season", not "Episode.
>I dun goofed...
Really? I had no idea...

Max and Chloe were great characters. Unless they come up with a new duo that matches their depth, Season 2 won't achieve the same level of success. Hopefully they at least make a cameo appearance. If the Rewind power returns, Max may make an appearance as a mentor to the main character. I'd rather they give us a non-binary ending where a mysterious hero saves the Season Two protagonist in the last episode and, right before it cuts to black, lifts up her hood to reveal she's Max Caulfield, thus setting up a return.

One idea for Season 3: The main conflict is Max and the Season 2 protagonist figuring out a way to save Chloe and stop the Prescotts without destroying the space time continuum. Dontnod drops ambiguous hints as to whether Chloe died in the bathroom or sometime after the Bae ending, thereby enshrining neither ending as canon.

> "I'm with my girlfriend in Portland."
> Kate spurns the "devil worshiping hedonists."
> Without high school degrees, they don't find jobs.
> They end up living in Chloe's truck.
> After a few stints in prison, they seek help from their parents.
> Max's parents, mad at her for wasting their money by ditching private school, won't let her stay with Chloe and bring her back to Seattle
> Max's parents blame Chloe for Max's bad behavior and prevent her from contacting Chloe
> Chloe is abandoned once again.
> Joyce, a conservative southern woman, and David, a traditional Republican, send Chloe to conversion therapy in return for paying her debts.
> Kate suggests a clinic run by her church.
> Chloe is raped by multiple male orderlies each day to ungay her.
> Max wakes up.

It only gave closure to Max and Chloe's relationship. The ending didn't address who survived the storm. Photos of Max and Chloe in the album with Kate, David, Joyce and the others taking shelter in the diner would've allayed more concerns.

That's not going to end well...

I know what you mean. The other characters are left unaccounted for and I know that's not what Renderanon was going for. He just wanted to cap off the abrupt ending with something that left a better taste in the viewer's mouth than 'they drive out of the town. The End.'
It's obvious in his video that Chloe's home in Arcadia Bay sustained a lot of damage, since that's where the pictures of her parents were recovered from.

But as for something that tries to show more and give closure to other characters, it hasn't been tried yet. Sbel did a little more but even that only showed Joyce, Frank, Warren, and Nathan.
Maybe someday someone will tackle the huge task of making an ending/epilogue that gives a decent amount of closure for each character. Even if it's just a few seconds to show 'hey, they're alive and okay'. Something like a montage ending from the first two episodes would be perfect. I already have what I would have shown planned out but I have no knowledge about animating.

Looks more like a photo. They're staying with Joyce and David this weekend.
It's Saturday so Max didn't have to get up for class and chose to sleep in. Chloe had to get up and go to Two Whales for her shift, but she left that on the pillow next to Max for when she wakes up.
Max can go visit Chloe later in the day.

I would as well. Just a shopping LDC where you get a budget and decide what to try on/buy and plan out a nice little date for them. A chance for them to relax and just be normal teens after the storm and everything else.

I was just reading something that said a few journalists showed up not too long ago (Maybe few weeks ago) to see DONTNOD's HQ. They got a tour talked to people and were shown the area where Vampyr is being made. But the interesting thing was that apparently part of the building was blocked off but it was clear they were working on another project.

I know nothing concrete has been said. But with all the tiny hints, here and there, it's starting to paint the picture that LiS S2 is in some stage of development. Unless DONTNOD has yet another game planned and are being secretive about it (Even though they had no problem announcing Vampyr really early on)
If it's S2 then I really would expect it early next year.

Kate never became a whore and neither would Max! Being drugged is entirely different!

I was thinking more maybe Max and Chloe reunited earlier than in the game, so they were friends, but Chloe still ended up getting shot and killed. Nathan escapes or is never seen committing the crime.
Kate saves Max (or not) but then she has to use her power to find out what happened to Chloe and go back to save her, so that by extension she saves Max. While also solving the mystery of everything with Jefferson.
>>
>>168085995
So who would be Kate's Chloe aka her partner in time & crime? Victoria? Rachel?

Probably Victoria, Kate knows she's friend with Nathan but when Nathan becomes a serious suspect she needs to convince Victoria to help her.
Rachel is still missing and died the same way. Jefferson's still an asshole murderer with Nathan as his accomplice.
Max throughout the story is not a lot of help because she's either dead or in the hospital and miserable (But she gets better once Kate undoes everything and brings Chloe back!)
No storm, Kate got her powers by praying that she could help her friends- so she got a rewind power.

Cool idea. Great franchise. Bruce Campbell voiced it. Shame they got lazy with the actual game. The entire franchise deserves better.

The Last Door is described as a love letter to Lovecraft by its developers. It captures the style well. I was honored when a reviewer once compared my work to Lovecraft. Despite his personal failings, he knew how to craft a world and tell a weird tale. Did you see the Lovecraft references in LiS?

After max rewinds automax takes over until she gets to the point in time where she rewound. The fact that she "wakes up" and the town hasn't been destroyed means that the storm didn't hit Arcadia bay.

>>168097581
That's not the point. The point is Max, and the player, are given no reason to think letting Chloe die would fix the storm.
The storm appears in Max's vision before doing anything and is coming in every timeline she goes to, even when Chloe is already dead from Jeffeson shooting her.
The story is trying to hint she needs to die at a specific moment but nothing backs that up. Max makes changes prior to saving Chloe, and can only go back to a point AFTER she saved her once (The original butterfly photo is lost for good, Chloe has the one taken after changes were made) and saving anybody else didn't cause a storm.

I haven't written fan fiction in almost 20 years, but I've considered it for LiS. Most likely it'd just be something short: Chloe considering suicide after Rachel disappears and before Max comes back. My other project idea was too ambitious. It'd take away from my paid fiction/screenwriting gigs. As much as I love the characters, it wouldn't be a productive use of my time. They already have a devoted fan base; I don't want to put less than my best effort into a noir-ish Pricefield piece because I'm distracted by assignments on deadline.

I know how you feel. I had my own grand ideas, especially right after the game, and just kept putting them off or didn't trust my ability to do my ideas or the characters justice.
Now enough time has passed and my own ideas have either appeared in others works because they also thought of them or my own thoughts have been changed by what I've read the past year. I'd hate to type something out, having it be riddled with errors, or be accused or stealing from others.

If it's the one I'm thinking of, the first chapters were Chloe jumping off the cliff and then the power activated and rewound her to before she jumped. There was something with Max being sick from something and just about dying, I think Rachel came back, Max and Chloe had more than one fight after becoming a couple.I dunno.

I might've found a way to trigger these 2 unused scenes from ep4.
>>
>>168106289
Every time I see Kate with her violin I just think of her playing 'Nearer My God To Thee'
>>
>>168106827
And what would those be?
Episode 4 was there things started going downhill so if there's actually something that was cut it could show their original intentions.
>>
>>168106941
Max had a scene where she would carry the gun while investigating in Jefferson's car. Jefferson was going to get shot, Chloe shot too (on her leg), but Max still kidnapped. The investigation sequence - David was helping Jefferson to find victims.
>>
>>168107092
Fuck, that first part would've been so much better than what we got, I always wondered why Max didn't use Nathan's gun

Not sure about David helping Jeffie though
>>
Gonna leave this here.
>>
>>168107092
>>168107704
>David was helping Jefferson to find victims.
That doesn't make a lick of sense. Right from the start he practically had a "Reds under the beds" attitude towards surveillance. Episode 2 and 3 even hinted at the two having an animosity towards one another with Jefferson calling him an asshole behind his back and David thinking Jefferson was shady.
>>
Gonna leak more stuff like this later.
>>
>>168107092
I do not buy that last part at all.
There was evidence that at one point Max would be in Jefferson's car and there would be some choice to call the cops or kill, probably regarding Nathan. As in Mark tried to get Max and Chloe to do his dirty work, get rid of Nathan, and then he would turn on them and shoot Chloe/drug Max.
Uncomfy spoiler
There was also evidence, and voice lines, of Max seeing Chloe's dead body in the Dark Room in a bodybag. As if Jefferson was going to pose them together. Thankfully that part was dropped entirely.
>>
>>168108220
So it looks like David was spying on Max and Chloe at the party parking lot? His rescue would make more sense
>>
>>168107810
>>168108220
Where is this stuff coming from? Because we've had access to all the in-game animations and sound files (including those which were included but never used), so unless this is coming from some external source, it's nothing hugely new. I doubt anyone has properly gone through and checked each and every animation against the actual game though, so maybe there's something slightly new to be found on that front.

Having the names of the mocap actors who performed each action is kinda cute, but they had fewer actors than characters, so it's hard to draw solid connections between what characters might have been in which scenes based on the actor. I don't know if that's what you're hinting at though.

Happy to render out some simple versions of any named animations though (assuming they're in the game files).
>>
>>168108345
Not really. He came to the Dark Room hours late. It's more likely that Joyce called him after Chloe hadn't arrived back home.

A cute little detail I just noticed - those dates! They were shooting Episode 4 animations as early as April. I guess it makes sense, but it's a neat little detail to use when we try to piece together what was made when, what changes were made to things when, etc.

How complete is that list for other episodes? Would be cool to see how far in advance a lot of this stuff was done.

And yet somehow they hadn't finished the script until just a month before Episode 5's release.

Yeah. I think he either came home, or Joyce called him when Chloe didn't return, he went in saw the board in Chloe's room and the location and went
"oh shit" and figured they were in trouble.

Though in the final timeline Chloe and Max went back to Chloe's house and told him about the Dark Room so he called the Police and went with them while the girls stayed home (And totally did things that resulted in subtle timeline changes and more people escaping the storm)
>>
>>168108853
Ehh, I think there's a reasonable enough difference, given that so much of the game's dialogue is given in a way that doesn't need explicit mocap animations. Even if they had all the main beats of every scene down and finished months in advance, they can still add/revise as much dialogue into those shot-reverse-shot-standing-with-automated-"lipsynch" type moments as they want. Obviously this doesn't seem like an ideal way to pace out a scene, but, eh, I can see them wanting to add/revise stuff where they could, especially given that nothing really makes much sense anyway.

Really, the interesting thing would be to know when the last VA sessions were. I think we have a fairly reasonable idea of this from instagram posts, but I'm not sure we ever found a full timeline of those before. And presumably it's easier to do some last-minute VA recording than it is to do last-minute mocap, so that could be a factor too.

It is infuriating. They also took like two months more to release Episode 5 and they didn't even use that extra time to make sure things were believable, consistent, or enjoyable. The only redeeming parts were a few of the nightmare scenes and saving Chloe with the photo. But even that last one was a scene I was really looking forward to, a truly emotional breakdown and confession from Max, and they just scratched the surface.

It's hard to remember now but back then the announcement that it would take up to three months total was agonizing. And to have it turn out to be such a disappointment made it so much worse. They took the time to include fanservice in Episode 4 but they couldn't be assed with polishing their finale. Even something as simple as including viewable files in the Dark Room would have been nice because at least it would provide more context for Jefferson's crimes.

>>168109747
There were so many things they could have done to improve the finale and not one of them was done. It really is the best to just assume it never happened or say Max found a third option that saved both Chloe and nearly the entire town.

I've seen this pic dozens of times, but I'm still not really sure who they're supposed to be. I get Kate and Vicky, but the other two? Taylor and Courtney? Because Courtney's hair doesn't match. Similarly with Max and Chloe. Could they be Dana and Juliet? If so, what relation do they have to Victoria and Kate that would make the artist add them in? I guess the other alternative is that the other two rabbits are Kate's two sisters ... but that'd seem a little odd to put them there with Victoria too?

I'm just confused.

I think so too. That really is just gruesome. Especially since it is such an synaesthetically engraving experience, with the sheer horror and intensity of the experience emotionally and physically - in the digging, the dirt between fingernails and all over hands, as well as the stench. The contrast of a particularly-lively sunny, sun-burnt, warm, enticingly-smelling girl to the cold, moldy and pale corpse under white moon light, its smell.

That's nightmare material and sticks with you even regardless of what you make of the experience itself, i. e. think of it as something liberating and cathartic in a sense, like I do.

In the moment, it was actually less of an emotional scene for me and more just downright hauntingly macabre.

It takes some serious Maxhugging to go back to sweet dreams after one of such.

She dealt with it in the moment, but trauma takes time to process. Some young foster kids don't have trauma related outbursts until their tweens, teens or later. Max was kidnapped and abused--possibly sexually--by her mentor, a man she admired, respected and trusted. There's no way she'd brush it off forever, especially in the state she was left after that week.

Maybe if she's still lingering around, Rachel's spirit could visit Chloe in a dream and just give her some peace.
Maybe appearing in her human form to Chloe and just being like

"I am SO sorry I fucked up, Chloe. I know part of you will always love me, and another part will always be made at me, but just remember the good times and know that I did care about you as my best friend. I wish things could have been different, but I'm okay. And so are you, I see you with Max. You'll be fine as long as you be there for each other."

She was not sexually abused, stop bringing anti-canon shit up. It is outright established in the game that he did not physically interfere with his victims beyond the drugging and posing, there is plenty suggesting it was outright not about physical satisfaction, and we have nothing to suggest he did sexually abuse her; everything else is your own fantasy. And don't start with your "unlikely but possible" nonsense - talk about the game, or don't.

You are right that it could, and should have more of a psychological impact; I deal in what we see in the game, which shows her in control in the Dark Room even after she's returned there multiple times, and shows her confront Jefferson even after it all bravely, determinedly and courageously. She was not scared, not of the experience nor him, but remained firm in her position and her fight against him, which she won more than once, keeping a cool and calculating head. The narrative sentiment is that she is strong and that he did not get to her, that she defies him as a person and whatever "artist" he believes himself to be. I choose to see that as a characterization of her, her strength and growth and her dealing with that experience with confidence and conviction, fueled by an unbreakable will-power to get back to Chloe. I have next to no interest in a psychologized reading of narrative or characters, but of course it is not invalid (and there's things to be said about the nightmare).

I see that they make each other better psychologically as well. Even after all the terrible shit. That whatever residual problems it and other experiences could cause for either of them, they could work through. Because we see them do so in the game, heal mutually, on all levels (the nightmare precisely being one such example, in as much as Chloe helps Max through and out of it).

Realistically, she would probably need therapy, and that would include talking about her relation to the Dark Room stuff.

>>168142609
Unfortunately she can't talk about the Dark Room with anyone but Chloe. They could say they found it and saw photos of Kate, Rachel, etc. but Max was never technically a victim.
She could talk to a therapist about other stuff like "nearly seeing people die", finding Rachel, and other stuff but nothing involving other timelines or time travel. Unless she described it under the guise of it being nightmares she's had.
But who knows? She has Chloe, Joyce, David, her friends, and her own parents. Maybe she would eventually tell her parents the FULL story just so they would know everything and would know their daughter wasn't being hysterical or insane.
Likewise, Chloe would need to open up to her own family and probably need to resume her therapy. Both as an individual and with Joyce and David if they really want to try fixing things.
>>
>>168132035
We mentioned how Max talking to her about the spirit doe and the idea of Rachel leading them to her and into safety, finding rest, could give Chloe peace.

I do think Chloe did make "peace" with a lot of what Rachel meant to her, in a narrative sense. As a person, and with that having happened, it's true that getting it out of her system, her dreams, would be a work in progress that functions more gradually, psychologically. Time and repeated coping rituals with Max, such as talking about her, even visiting the junkyard as part of confronting it all, talking to Frank, to her parents and being able to go through some of her stuff perhaps.

>>168143962
That is true, in the end, she never did get captured. She could still reasonably try and tackle it in a therapy setting, seeing as how people close to her went through that experience, and since he was her teacher and she discovered the bunker. This would definitely validate psychological work on that general topic and how she deals with the thought (or, as she could bring up: dreams) of being imprisoned in that bunker as a victim.

As humans, I'd also like to see them seek professional help. Especially as a family, as you say. Joyce is actually clinically depressed, David far as we have to assume is diagnosedly suffering PTSD, and their family situation could absolutely need some counselling regardless. And Chloe and Max individually could certainly benefit from seeing a professional as well. That would be the preferable reality of it. The sentimental narrative however has me convinced at least Max and Chloe would be their all in everything, that grand idea of healing and becoming whole together.
>>
>>
>>168144526
They could also visit Rachel's grave. But yeah, Chloe being open and talking about it would be the best thing. It may hurt her to do so at first, but once she's comfortable with it it will help her. Sadly, Chloe has not had it easy and has lost numerous people very close to her very abruptly. I think towards the end of the game she realizes what her mother was trying to tell her about people being gone but the memories staying alive.

Max may be able to do without any 'outside' help, but she would seek it if she felt she needed it, and just rely on Chloe and her own family. Chloe needs it though.
Even just the two of them talking to their individual friends would help some. Chloe and Frank chatting and being truthful about Rachel; Max, Kate, and Victoria talking about Jefferson and Nathan.
Obviously their biggest healing factors will be each other. It would be understandable if they wanted to talk to their own friends about subjects they may not be able to talk about/understand together.
If Max and Chloe REALLY felt comfortable with it, they could even visit Jeffershit in prison. To talk to him one final time and see he's not some powerful force, he is a pathetic man that they defeated.

Besides, that professional help would likely (probably, hopefully? You never know in the U.S. about these things... see: war veterans, Chloe in the AU...) be state-sponsored, or - better yet - Prescott-sponsored. So why not take it.

Oh yeah. Prescotts are going to be sucking up big time to try to save what's left of their reputation and money.
They are going to get sued big time or even face criminal investigations after everything. Would not be surprised if Max and Chloe end up with a decently sized house for dirt cheap.

>>
>>168148360
Exactly. At the least, they'd seek to save their reputation in the area and help people as well as rebuild the town's infrastructure. And more than that, they'd very likely be on the string for the physical and emotional damages Nathan caused others, and for their money spent on the bunker and equipment used for the crimes, as well as continued financial support that apparently got them the drugs. As culpably negligent in much of it.

And the victims specifically (and Chloe was a victim of Nathan's drugging, after all) could absolutely take away a large compensation. Maybe in a generous out-of-court agreement with the Prescotts. Maybe Rachel's parents would even feel compelled to give a lot of their share to the Price's. Because they know the family can use it, because Chloe was the only one still searching when even they were in denial, and because she, Max and ultimately David brought "justice" to her and everyone else.

...Well, or they think (and maybe the Marshes push for it) that justice can only be served in court - then Max can still just play the market and take some few millions from the too-astronomically-rich-anyway world of corporate and finance, should they want or need big money like that and not get it in court.

If the new characters' story was to be more narratively compelling (which I find highly unlikely), I would make that choice just the same. Max and Chloe can fight for their lives and love again, like everyone else.

Besides, it will just be one of your puppy tornadoes anyway, and you leaving everything to the deity "imagination". Meaning the obvious conclusion and road for imagination is that most of everyone survived, and Max and Chloe as the fighters and prevailing force that they are, certainly did.

I've tried, but it's not possible.

>It is outright established in the game that he did not physically interfere with his victims
When is that? His conversation with Kate Marsh is one of a couple arguing. There are rumors of him fooling around with students at Blackwell. Fucking them, drugging them then coercing them to remain quiet or risk public shame is his M.O. Townsfolk talk about Rachel hanging out with an older dude in town.

>The narrative sentiment is that she is strong and that he did not get to her
She verbally defies him, but admits to Chloe that he "hurt her". That means he got to her. She escaped, but she was still damaged. Read into it however you want, and feel free to claim that I used outside information in this analysis when you can't find a hole in the argument--as if that would've been a bad thing--, but he did hurt her. Her reaction to the event and despondent behavior in the Bae ending were that of a damaged individual. She was suffering internally.

>I have next to no interest in a psychologized reading of narrative or characters, but of course it is not invalid
It doesn't take a licensed psychiatrist to know that kidnap by a trusted authority figure will hurt someone psychologically. Did they have to tell you stabbing yourself would lead to blood loss in high school?

There's a news article on the plane specifically stating that there wasn't any physical interference with any of his victims. He himself says he prefers they never know a thing. They would know if they were sexually abused. Max would. Canon is clear here.

>His conversation with Kate Marsh is one of a couple arguing.
Are you insane?

> There are rumors of him fooling around with students at Blackwell.
One student. Another student we see him outright turn down when she comes onto him. And that student even was a planned victim, as opposed to Rachel, who was not his victim and we have no reason to believe he wanted to have as a victim. Precisely because she was something else to him: someone he was interested in sexually, maybe even romantically. As opposed to his victims.

He also says something along the lines of "I would have liked you back in my day" to Max, establishing that he does not consider it now.

>She verbally defies him
And mentally, and in actions. I'm not sure what else you want?

>She was suffering internally.
She was certainly not entirely unaffected, realistically wouldn't be, never said that. But the nightmare as partly a psychological recapture of the character themes for her shows that his impact on her is relatively slight, the Dark Room used more as a way to show insecurities she's had regarding herself in comparing herself to other people, rather than any that the Dark Room would have triggered.

And again, she is not broken by it in the game. It does not break her, on the contrary. She was not suffering immensely from or haunted by it. Then we would have heard it non-stop. It doesn't come up in her thoughts. It was horrible, she knows it was, it comes up in her nightmare and conversation with Chloe, both times Chloe is there to comfort and help her overcome it, coming out of both those situations well.

>>168160607
>It doesn't take a licensed psychiatrist
I was not at all talking about a psychiatric view on her condition. Did they teach you to appreciate stories in high school? I do not appreciate LiS psychologically. Certainly not first-and-foremost. After my ending, I don't imagine therapy session after therapy session, traumatized young girls breaking at the seams and never being ok again. I don't take things such as the Dark Room and Jefferson in what they mean psychologically to Max specifically or the story in a narrative sense of coming-of-age of young women or whatever, not primarily anyway; I take them as narrative sentiments and characterization pieces, not psychologization.

Not every aspect of every story has to be seen in that light, and certainly not in a psychological light. Sure, you can do that. Maybe Gregor Samsa in Metamorphosis is just suffering from a mental issue that would require psychiatric attention. It's one way of interpreting and viewing a fictional work, and with LiS, I never cared much to look into the "psychologistics" of it. It's not a psychogram in my mind.

She was determined and confident in her choice and it ended in a genuine smile.

That was a sign of a confident, secure and healing individual. Narrative sentiment of things looking up, her movement in the seat conveying this notion of acceptance and moving forward.

You can keep your idea that her smile is despondent. I don't see that. She is not the happiest girl in the world. Understandably. She is not a suffering individual here.

It said no physical interference has been uncovered yet. It wasn't definitive.

>Are you insane?
No. It's a pretty common interpretation actually. Check out Anima Gaming's vLog on Jefferson for a fellow Baesider's perspective on the issue.

>And that student even was a planned victim
The power dynamic wasn't in his favor. Accepting her offer then drugging her could turn real bad for him.

>I was not at all talking about a psychiatric view on her condition. Did they teach you to appreciate stories in high school?
When when discussing whether characters will need therapy, it's taking a psychological look at a story.

>>168164308
She was smiling to appease Chloe. Turning away and staring off into the distance lost in thought was hardly happy. Instead of watching the storm she put her face in Chloe's chest and cried. That's far from confidence.

>It wasn't definitive.
The devs put an article in the game saying the investigation found no traces of any interference, it is canon that there was none you daft troll. But sure, keep your fapfantasy that he sexually abused people against all canonical reasonability and out suggestion.

>It's a pretty common interpretation actually.
That Kate and Jefferson were a couple? I will not check out any vlog of a person that is that retarded, thank you.

>Accepting her offer then drugging her could turn real bad for him.
How so? He later also 'naps her from a party in-midst of a killing spree, but not decidedly shooting down her sexual advances in an illegal midnight meeting with a student he is sexually interested in would turn out bad for him...?

>it's taking a psychological look at a story
And I'm saying that look has no value to me, and yours isn't backed up by anything that would give it much either.

You responded to me. She hasn't finished coping with it, didn't mean to imply that - not realistically and not in my view on it either. But she is not the suffering, traumatized and deeply hurt, despodent individual either. That's just not in the game. She manages, and my view is that she would only do more so, with Chloe. Heal completely, become whole. Narrative sentiment, not psychological estimate.

>She was smiling to appease Chloe.
K.

>That's far from confidence.
She ripped the photo apart in confidence, held Chloe's hand in confidence, returned the oath in confidence. Not being able to watch the storm rip through Arcadia is not lack of confidence. It's obvious pain at the tragedy, pain she knows Chloe can help her bear.
>>
Of course she's happy in the bae ending. She's got someone she can talk to. In the bay ending, she has no one who she can confide with (without getting thrown in the insane asylum) and has to deal with the guilt of engineering the death of her friend/lover, the trauma of trying to talk Kate down from the room, having a assisted suicide sprung on her, and being abducted, drugged and abused by her primary mentor figure. Basically she's mentally fucked. It'll only get worse when the tornado arrives one week late ;)

No, that anon is right. He was sleeping with Rachel. Rachel says so herself in a letter that she never gave to Chloe. (In fact, Chloe never finds out that Rachel also had something with Jefferson. But will later. Go figure.)

The idea that he was sleeping with students is still absurd. He was interested in Rachel - Rachel, the gal everyone and their mothers were enthralled by. We have no suggestion whatsoever that he was sexually interested in any of the other students, or let alone his victims. He outright shoots down advances of younger people more than once. He is outright canonically confirmed not to have sexually interferred with his victims.

I think when the tornado appeared again she would be both incredibly scared but also overjoyed.
A realization of "Oh shit I can't stop this from happening!" But also "Chloe doesn't have to die!"
Now that would be a bittersweet moment. Though the most logical would be if Max sacrifices Chloe, her autopilot self would discover her powers in the bathroom and save Chloe, so Max would come to on the cliff as the storm is approaching.

I can't believe how cruel this general is toward my tru bae! He's so incredible! A little shy, but all the ladies want him. Brooke, Alyssa, Stella. Watch out Max or he'll be gobbled up by some other lucky girl! You know they'd all happily take a mouthful of him!

God. He's handsome, smart and caring. He's so good at chemistry, helping Max make that bomb to let her break into Blackwell. Then he's such a lateral thinker, figuring out how Max's irresponsible use of time powers caused everything. If only Max had confided in him on day one, she'd have put everything right then and there and there'd be no more problems.

Did I mention he's just a little bit of a dark streak. Fuck it had me trembling when he saved Max and whats-her-face from Nathan. Not only is he sweet and smart, he's also so tough, winning a fight against a pistol armed enemy! Needless to say, episode 5 was the highlight of the series for me. Not only does Warren lay some brilliant truth down on Max and tell her what she needs to do, but you finally get to reward him for saving you so many times in the past with a true romantic moment! That kiss was so hot my panties melted! Or they would have had I not thrown them off in preparation (OK I admit it, I googled "omg will warren and max xxx in ep 5" - I'm such a spoiler slut!)

So at the end, I made the only choice I could, quivering in anticipation for what was to come. And I wasn't disappointed! Warren totally made a move on her at whats-her-name's funeral, just like he did when the eclipse appeared.

Cowardice, to be honest. They throw all these allusions to sexual abuse in how both Chloe and Kate describe their ordeals, have Jefferson monologue about "corrupting their innocence" etc. Then they go, 'nah they weren't actually sexually abused' and your wrong to even consider the possibility.
>>
>>168177948
In know it's been said before, but it should be repeated, Jefferson is a retard.
He says he wants to capture fear and loss of innocence but then he:
-Photographs people like Rachel or Victoria, who are not exactly "innocent"
-Drugs the subjects up so they don't even know where they are or know to be scared. They just look zoned out.

The only times Jefferson gets the images he describes, showing that fear, is when something is wrong and not enough drugs are used so the person is aware of what is happening. The only time he shows his vision and "masterpiece" is when HE fucks things up.
Plus he criticized Arbus for saying "humanity is tortured" but then that's his whole shtick.

Jefferson a shit. Shit photographer, shit teacher, shit criminal, and shit human being.

No, not really. I mean it was impressive that they somehow wrote a juggernaut of a fic in the space of a month. But I didn't particularly care for edgelord Max.
>>
>>168182548
The only fics I enjoyed from them there the comfy AUs where they had a kid, the elementary school one, and the start of the one where Max drove down to visit Chloe (Before that became one plethora of tragedy and mental issues)
Credit though that they wrote that many stories and that they were all long and mostly well edited.

You only get coda if you pick the mature option. Otherwise you need to use your imagination.

>>168183208
There was one fan fiction of Chloe, as a teen pre-William's death, debating whether she was in love with Max or not. It was well-written and authentic.

>>168183668
It would be cool if it cut to them on their wedding day with Joyce, David, Vanessa and Ryan present.

>Kate is the flower girl.

If they had a bigger imagination aka budget, they could've cut to them, much older and married, at the graves of those who died in the storm. That would've solidified that Chloe would survive afterwards.
>>
>>168184634
I think cutting to their wedding would be too abrupt. That's something I want to see a buildup too.
But when it does happen Kate will be Max's Maid of Honor, maybe Max has a younger cousin that could be the flower girl.
And of course both of their families would be there like in >>168125495 (Joyce and David are probably blocked from view by Max)

True. That would've been a cool jump into the future to make the ending more tragic. Them standing at the graves of those who died or a memorial for the victims of the tornado years later with rings on their fingers. That would tell us who survived.

It really deflated a lot of the tension. Max was tied up in a chair yet I still had the thought, "Oh, he's not sexuality abusing them? That's not as bad as I thought it was". They should have committed.

>>168178292
>They just look zoned out.
In terms of capturing fear and loss off innocence Nathan actually did a better job photographing Rachel than Jefferson ever does with Kate and Max. The junkyard is a far more intimidating backdrop than a white sheet. Rachel looks genuinely scared not just doped up. There's a better use of chiaroscuro. I bet that drove Jefferson crazy(er).
>>
>>168190470
>"Oh, he's not sexuality abusing them? That's not as bad as I thought it was".
Agreed, but, at the same time, unless he took photos of him and Nathan sexually abusing the women, the authorities wouldn't discover it without a victim coming forward. Then it would be speculation. Victims of sexual assault face undue scrutiny when coming forward. It would be their word against Prescott's attorneys. They'd pay Jefferson's legal fees to avoid information about the funding behind the Dark Room going public.

>I saw exactly one. It was in Blackwells rejection letter to AU Chloe.
That's one. I felt some of the overall atmosphere was somewhat Lovecraftian, with the surrealism, darkness and references to occult/non-Western religions, for example the Tobanga.

I'm Salt Bay, by the way.

>The junkyard is a far more intimidating backdrop
True, but it's also a riskier location.
>>
>>168190470
I thought Jefferson photographed Rachel (the photos in the binder with her name) and Nathan was with him giving the drugs. Nathan screwed up (or was ordered by Jefferson) and gave her an OD.
There's even the theory that Nathan freaked out when Rachel died, Jefferson drugged him to keep him calm and forget things, and then told Nathan that Rachel was alive. Which is why Nathan thinks Max is Rachel at first and would have contributed to Nathan finally going against Jefferson.
>>
>>168191764
That's about the only reasonable explanation I can think of. As disturbed as Nathan is I have a hard time swallowing that he'd be willing to pose next to Rachel's corpse and act completely calm. Dialogue from the game's files shows him freaking out and expressing remorse after he kills Chloe by accident.
>>
>>168193298
He's more spaz than sociopath. He killed Chloe because he pulled the trigger instinctively when she pushed him away.
>>
>>168193298
Even if he didn't want to kill anyone, Nathan shooting Chloe was down to his own stupidity. Carrying a loaded gun, with the safety off, and his finger on the trigger.
It was his entirely his fault. Or it would have been had Max not rewound it.

Still, Nathan does hurt some people. He attacked Max and Warren, pulled a gun on them and Chloe, and who knows what else he has done. Nathan has a lot of issues that only heavy doses of medication, and completely new surroundings, would start to help with.
>>
>>168191548
>unless he took photos of him and Nathan sexually abusing the women,
There's plenty of creative ways to capture the subject while abusing them without putting themselves in the frame.

>Victims of sexual assault face undue scrutiny when coming forward
If you say so, I think the accused face far worse scrutiny. People are falsely accused, it happens.

>I felt some of the overall atmosphere was somewhat Lovecraftian
I find the word Lovecraftian gets thrown around a little too loosely. Applying it to LiS would be a case of that to me. I think you'd really like Bloodborne, it does cosmic horror as well as possible while still giving everything a health bar.

>>168191764
>I thought Jefferson photographed Rachel
No. The photos are taken in the junkyard, specifically in Chloe and Rachel's hideout. Jefferson wouldn't use such a risky location. Jefferson also wouldn't order an OD for no reason, nor would he have let Nathan kill Rachel if he was present for the dosage. The game overtly tells us that Nathan was trying impress Jefferson by kidnapping and photographing Rachel.

>Which is why Nathan thinks Max is Rachel at first and would have contributed to Nathan finally going against Jefferson.
Not a very good theory. You don't forget that you killed someone unless you were drugged before hand. Jefferson would have no reason to drug Nathan unless he killed Rachel so that cancels itself out. The game constantly compares Max to Rachel, Nathan confusing them is just an extension of that.

>>168193459

Got to read that. Really cute little fic, the author did an astounding job with the imagery and making it feel like a younger Chloe and Max. I'm sure their friendship was great.
Which makes it sad it too a very long hiatus, which did neither of them any good. That thought makes me sad, especially thinking of Chloe pretty much all alone until Rachel came along (and still didn't give her what she needed).
But in the end I can at least know her and Max did reunite and will get to live out their dreams together.
>>
>>168195173
The photos in the binder are Jefferson's and were taken in the Dark Room. Nathan was there with him and after Rachel died they drove to the Junkyard to bury her. Nathan was freaking out so Jefferson drugged him, then then saw how he looked and decided to take a few shots of a dead Rachel and incapacitated Nathan.

If he told Nathan that Rachel was alive and just had to be paid off to go away or something, Nathan may believe it just to give himself some peace.

But he does remember parts of it since he writes 'Rachel in the Dark Room" repeatedly on that one crazy sketch. He also painted the warnings in the junkyard sometime before Max and Chloe get ambushed and he gets killed or whatever happens to him.
>>
>>168193668
It is his fault. It just feels like there was misstep with his supposed murder of Rachel. His characterization up until that point had been of a coward who played tough guy to hide his insecurities. When confronted with real violence he panics. For him to take Rachel dying in stride and pose next to her corpse feels very out of character for him.
>>
>>168195867
I agree. I could not see him taking pictures with Rachel like that either.
It strikes me as something Jefferson would do. And it seems like Nathan was free to hang out in the Dark Room, but he could not access the filing cabinets with the binders. Otherwise he would have seen Rachel's binder with him in it as well and he would have seen Victoria's. Which I don't think he would have idly stood by and allowed, one of his few friends to be harmed.
>>
>>168195680
>The photos in the binder are Jefferson's and were taken in the Dark Room
We see two photos. One of Nathan lying next to Rachel in what is clearly the junkyard. In the other photo it's harder to tell but the framing is far more similar to Nathan's work than Jefferson's. Remember that Jefferson was in a relationship with Rachel, the devs confirmed during a live stream that the note Max finds in the junkyard is Rachel confessing her relationship with Jefferson to Chloe. Jefferson wouldn't have chosen to photograph Rachel. Furthermore Jefferson straight up says that it was Nathan who kidnapped and photographed Rachel to impress him. He has no reason to lie to Max since he was about to kill her.

>Nathan was freaking out so Jefferson drugged him
We don't know this.

>He also painted the warnings in the junkyard
What warnings?
>>
>>168197263
In Episode 4 at night you can walk into the the clubhouse and see the wall is changed.
It originally said from Episode 2:
>Chloe was here, Rachel was here, (optional) Max was here
It becomes
>Chloe was here, Rachel IS here, Max was here- YOU'RE ALL GOING TO DIE

It couldn't have been Jefferson because he was at the party and only arrived after he knew Max and Chloe were going to the Junkyard. So it had to be Nathan painting it (Pretty sure it also matches up with his writing) either as some kind warning or just in the throes of a mental breakdown.

It only says YOU'RE ALL GOING TO DIE if Warryn is allowed to go full street fighter.

>>
>>168199143
He wouldn't have any reason to do it unless he knew the Dark Room had been found.
He must have had cameras in that room showing him whoever entered and once he saw Max and Chloe he knew they found out, a quick trip to the junkyard would confirm his suspicions.
That was all on the Thursday within a few hours between finding the Dark Room and Max getting drugged/Chloe getting killed.
>>
>>168199370
Okay so Nathan painted it then.
In one case maybe trying to help with the"IS here" since they showed mercy on him, and in the other he's threatening them.
Either way I think it was Nathan having a breakdown. He knows he and Mark have been discovered, that Rachel's dead, and that more people are going to get hurt.

But it's also kind of an inconsistency of when Nathan dies. He was never at the party (presumably because he was dead) but he's able to leave Max a final message and warning after she was in the Dark Room since she doesn't get it due to the poor cell service/ weather interference. She gets it later when she drives into a clearer area.
So it looks like:
Max and Chloe find Dark Room and Rachel, Jefferson calls Nathan to inform him, Nathan runs to junkyard to paint warning/threat, Jefferson tells him to text Chloe, Jefferson ambushes them, Max is drugged and confined t Dark Room (Possibly with Victoria), Nathan leaves final message as Jefferson comes for him, Jefferson kills Nathan and buries him then returns to Max.

This is all in one timeline and the final timeline of the game is left really vague. Nathan and Victoria could both possibly survive if Jefferson was caught by David and the police quickly enough.
>>
>>168178527
>Subjective.
I fail to see how the scene of Max angrily tearing the photo in half, while saying "Not anymore" shows anything but confidence. Or how you could read that as hesitant.

Let's not forget that Max's actual choice was to not go back again in order to let Chloe die. The tearing of the photo on the spot was not needed. In fact, one could go as far as calling the action reckless, as without knowing what may still be to come, you instantly make it tremendously hard to ever change your mind on this.

The tearing of the photo is there to drive home how confident Max is in her choice.

>>168199370
I thought it was determinant but I wasn't sure, thanks for confirming. Never noticed the Rachel thing, very cool.

>>168199530
He doesn't need a reason to frame Nathan. But as we've just learned it was indeed Nathan who writes it.

>>168199956
>In one case maybe trying to help with the"IS here"
That is one hell of a stretch. It's a threat from a crazy kid, plane and simple.

>Jefferson calls Nathan to inform him
Or Nathan just writes it after getting the shit kicked out of him.

Jefferson has killed Nathan and is using his phone. That's why it's the only text from Nathan that's grammatically correct and doesn't use slang terms.

She only gets it after she's escaped the Dark Room and is driving into town.

Nathan used the last of his magic to bind a part of his soul to the Jacket, the Jacket left the message for Max before turning into stardust and returning to the cosmos.

Or it's an oversight in the writing, I forget which. I guess you could say Max just doesn't check her voice mail very often. My phone doesn't auto play voice mail so maybe hers doesn't either.
>>
>>168201696
I dunno. I know it's not important, because it gets undone.
But it just seems to me that Nathan was alive longer than originally thought. He could have called the police himself and helped Max somewhat, or even killed Jefferson himself, but he was too scared/depressed to do it. In that timeline he just accepts his death.

Perhaps it's cowardice in an artistical sense. I'm sure they've had a variety of reasons why they didn't make him an actual sexual abuser, such as fears of how it'd sell, maybe Square saying not to outright go there after all; it is true that he can easily be taken to represent the concept of that in the context of the story. "Bad sexuality" as a theme in the coming-of-age tale of a girl, more so than just the theme of not trusting authority figures, and that people will abuse their positions and trust, and whatnot. He only abducts girls, talks of corrupting their innocence, practically moans while taking the shots. It is an obvious connection, an anology on sexual abuse. I'm glad they didn't make him an actual sexual abuser - this analogous way of exploring that fits the narrative better, and made him at least a little more interesting as a villain.

And I wouldn't want to even have the implication of such with these characters.

>>168203142
David. He was spying on his own family and young, female students, and wouldn't even admit to it in front of his wife or justify any of it - rather, he called them punks that he'd not have to take shit from. He was also a proper asshole on more than one occasion, and harassed Kate, Max and Chloe in ways that obviously made them very uncomfortable, outright physically attacking them (shoving Max, slapping Chloe).

It was necessary for him to think about himself and reconsider his behaviour. Getting kicked out would more likely lead to him to think about what his family means to him and realize that he's done them very wrong.
>>
>>168203142
David, Chloe, and Joyce. Those are issues that extend to way before Max came back and they will only be addressed properly through conversation and therapy.

>>168178527
That's not his kink.
Oh, first it would be bad for him, now it's not his "kink"? You jump from one retarded defense to the next stubbornly just not wanting to seem the immature retard you are, then accusing me of throwing a tantrum?

We have no reason to believe this is a sexual kink for him and plenty of things that go against it that you wilfully ignore. We know of 1 person he slept with. She was not his victim. He calls her being victimized a tragedy.

>In fact, I referenced it in the post
Funny that you'd use a facetious argument like that considering the fact that not knowing about the article which I brought to your attention originally precisesy is what made you look like a proper retard.

If the devs put an article in the game saying a criminal investigation yielded no evidence whatsoever for any such speculation, the canonical reality is that there is no room for such. How can you be so daft? What more do you need to stop injecting sex into this game? That the article says "after these three days of investigation, we can absolutely exclude that he ever even only thought of sexually abusing his female victims!", or did you want to see every second of one of his sessions to be sure he didn't pull his dick out? Canon is clear here. We have no reason to assume he did, plenty that suggestively and outright goes against the idea. Everything else is you fantasy. It is also not "definitive" that Mark isn't a lizard in disguise.

>It sounds exactly like a couple arguing.
I mean, not really? It sounds like a troubled young student seeking support in a teacher student she thought she could trust, and being harshly disappointed.

The idea that Kate was having an affair with Jefferson comes out of complete nowhere of your overly-sexualized mind. I really don't get how you can say that and not feel like a mad man. Your tendency to see things that just aren't there is maybe something you should let a professional have a look at, on the topic of mental health.

>>168178527
>We were discussing it, whether you like it or not.
I was talking about potential nightmares of hers with another anon. You responded disagreeing with something I said, saying she'd still deal psychologically, that it was a trauma. I did not get hostile or throw a tantrum in response - I agreed that realistically it should be a more psychologically impactful experience, but justified my original statement in the context of this fictional story and what it establishes. And it shows that she deals very well with it, that Chloe helps her, and that I take it as a characterization piece and don't want to psychoanalyze characters or story.

You responded with more psychoanalysis and insulted my intelligence, upon which I had to explain to you in greater detail again what my point was that you entirely missed.

>Subjective.
Yeah, it's all so very subjective!

Do keep your idea that she's a broken, suffering and scared individual in the Bae ending. But do so with the caveat that it is your subjective opinion. I don't see that. I honestly cannot see that. I see the opposite. And it's the Bay ending where I see a broken, suffering and scared Max.

>She disagrees.
She says he hurt her. He definitely did. I just don't take her for as psychologically troubled as you do, because that is not the narrative. Refer to my original post.

>They should have committed.
I'd rather they not, but I can see why people could see this as a cowarded move of them not to. It could be an important topic to tackle in video games to begin with, right? How many games do deal with sexual assault/abuse?

They could have at least made it so Nathan was sexually motivated, because that would fit his being a young guy in over his head, his "falling in lust" with Rachel, his drugging of Chloe and her description of it, his leering stares, awed expression when Kate jumps. His room with those posters, things collected from Max and Kate and Chloe, him projecting Kate's video onto his wall even after her potential suicide.

That would definitely make sense, him being a necrophiliac of sorts, obsessed with dead things, and that obsession expaning into the sexual, liking the idea of screwing unconscious people. And it would have spared them having to make any such implications with regards to all the other victims, and Max's abduction specifically.

>>168190470
>In terms of capturing fear and loss off innocence Nathan actually did a better job
Agreed. Jefferson's stuff just does not work at what he's set out for it to, which is especially glaring when he says his sessions with Max might have been a career high for him - precisely because she's conscious for some of it. If the drugged subject was his thing, his session with Max would have to seem a Kate or Rachel-tier desaster for him.

>>168195173
I do think Nathan abducted, drugged, photographed and eventually overdosed Rachel as his first subject. But I also think it's possible - and there's things to suggest this, such as his mad scribbles, relation with David, mistaking Max for Rachel - that Jefferson discovered the messup, drugged the freaked-out Nathan, posed him in the junkyard with Rachel copying his "style" as blackmail material, and told Nathan Rachel didn't die so he wouldn't snap. Because as we know, he wanted to get rid of him ever since that incident.
>>
>>168206996
>as blackmail material
Sorry, as scapegoat material. Copying Nathan's style on those shots precisely because he wanted to make it seem they were his shots. "Framing" him, as it were.

It's just a theory though. While there is substance to suggest it and while it is a reasonable, workable theory, it could also just be that Nathan did know Rachel had died that night, and was merely in a psychopathological state of denial.

>How many games do deal with sexual assault/abuse?
Alice Madness Returns comes to mind. Alice's therapist had molested her younger sister, he was also using his position to turn young girls towards prostitution. The game revolved around taking back a corrupted Wonderland from the therapists influence and uncovering the painful truth of her hidden memories. The game was dripping with symbolism of innocence corrupted by sexuality. It was disturbing but it made for an extremely compelling story. If devs shy away from subject matter deemed too taboo then it limits the medium. If DN never intended to explore sexual abuse in any capacity then that's fine, but if they pussied out on it for fear of being "problematic" then that's not okay.

>liking the idea of screwing unconscious people
Nathan's a coward. Nothing would exemplify that more than him sexually abusing someone completely incapable of defending themselves.

>Jefferson's stuff just does not work at what he's set out for it to
Or at the very least he just sucks at explaining what he hoped to accomplish. "Corruption of innocence" has nothing to do with a drugged up model who has no idea what's going on. It looks more like pic related. The dolls, a symbol of innocence, have been corrupted by the therapists (or Dollmaker as he is referred to in Wonderland) sexualized hands.

>and there's things to suggest this
Maybe, "The Dark Room" is sort of used as a concept as well as a space though, so that could explain the scribbling, Nathan's also nuts. I always felt like the David thing was a dropped plot line or something. When Max first finds the picture of Nathan 'posing' next to Rachel she says something to the effect of, "They look so vacant" or something similar. But none of that really compares to Jefferson just telling Max that it was Nathan, he really has no reason to lie.

>was merely in a psychopathological state of denial.
Yeah, I'd say he believed what he chose to believe.
>>
>>168209605
AMR seems interesting. Will check out.

>but if they pussied out on it for fear of being "problematic" then that's not okay.
Fair stance. I'm still glad how they did it. Although I agree that it really would have been well-implemented in a more explicit fashion with Nathan's character. And maybe they even wanted to? There's much suggesting this (he stripped Rachel - Jefferson doesn't do that; he collected items from the victims; he watched Kate's video projected against his bedroom wall; his room looks like a fetish lair, dark and red and "erotic"; he had the hots for Rachel, he does have an obsession with death, ...), and they cut the line where Max outright asks him whether he raped Kate. Maybe they decided at some point to give him a sense of redemption, at least in a way that doesn't show him as a complete monster that sexual abuse would undoubtably make him?

Anyway, this would have been an "easier" way to explore that topic that is definitely important, and if they did shy away from it for those kinds of reasons, it is disappointing with regards to their integrity indeed.

>"Corruption of innocence" has nothing to do with a drugged up model
Precisely. There exists no innocence in the unconscious. The entire idea of selecting models for their innocence, but then considering the unconscious state one of innocence (let alone of "corruption" of such) is just a completely nonsensical notion. That's the irony of Nathan being better at fulfilling his vision than he himself, and the comedic effects it gives his narcisstic remarks such as "like father, not like son" and "tried to copy my art".

Not to mention that, as you say, there are infinitely more well-suited subjects for the capturing of such corruption. Plenty of which do not include being a criminal filth. On the contrary, war and social photography can highlight and help alleviate problems in the world by raising awareness, or plane (:p) getting those subjects money off the work.
>>
>>168209605
>he really has no reason to lie
I obviously agree with this. Again, we canonically have to believe Nathan did this to Rachel. We know Jefferson didn't even want to do that to her, considers it a tragedy. More, not only did he attempt to do Chloe on his own, we have to assume Kate was also entirely on him. He's an absolute shithead regardless of knowing whether he killed Rachel that night or not.

But the theory makes sense: The photos of Rachel first are obviously his and not in the style of Jefferson: we see her awake and furious in them. Nathan freaks, gives her too much, she frothes at the mouth and he freaks out even more. Upon which either Jefferson barged in on the scene, or Nathan called him and admitted what happened, hoping Jefferson can help. But it was too late, or Jefferson didn't want to risk taking her to the ER, for obvious reasons. And either way, he drugged him, took the shots of Rachel and him in the junkyard as scapegoat material he wanted to later frame him with, and told him that Rachel had survived once he came to, in order to keep him from snapping and potentially wanting to go to the police. Saying that he paid and sent Rachel off or some such story that Nathan could buy seeing as how he knew she was looking to run away and was in love with Jefferson... but that he didn't entirely buy, and thus went insane with doubts and guilt and consulted David to find out what happened to Rachel, hence their relation.

But it is possible he was simply in denial, that fits him as well, both in a pathological sense, but also in the sense of him having a conscience that refuses to believe this happened, since that would make him a monster. That is narratively explored with him as well, that refusal to confront his demons. And perhaps Jefferson even blackmailed him after all.
>>
>>168211184
>The photos of Rachel first are obviously his and not in the style of Jefferson
Oh, meant to add after that: But later the photos switch styles - now they are black and white, and instead of showing Rachel in her exposed state, they concentrate on framing her face, explicitly hiding the nakedness of her body that Nathan seemed to go for. Those would be Jefferson's shots that he took of Rachel after he came into the Dark Rook and after Nathan overdosed, not wanting to waste the subject. Further suggestion that Jefferson came into it after-the-fact.

But yeah, Nathan is how they could have made sexual assault an actual thing in the game without having it be part of Jefferson's motivation, since the latter would come with disturbing implications for the number of victims he's had, for the Dark Room scenes we have in the actual game that would need to address this in rather "uncomfortable" ways regardless of outright showing parts of it or not, and would also take away from his character, in that his artistic obsession is even worth less than it already is as a basically-masturbatory one if it were outright-sexual on a physical level. And would makr it even less believable, since getting away with sexual abuse is not quite as easy. The victims notice something happened.

If they made Nathan sexually motivated, it would be possible that he did want to rape Rachel, but had problems keeping her subdued and overdosed her and that ruined it. Or, well, maybe he would have raped her, even after overdosing her. Kate was done opportunistically and hastily by him, and as a way to get back in with Jefferson after having been told off by him for what happened to Rachel, so he would not have been sexually motivated with her, wanting to show Jefferson he is also in it for the "art". Chloe he probably would have tried to sexually abuse, but fortunately she woke up and bailed. And neither Max, nor the other victims, were his.
>>
>>168211638
So with Nathan being made the sexual predator, things wouldn't be quite as disturbing, but still thematically (and characterally) fitting, and give means to address this topic in a narratively (and commercially) workable way - a topic that is both important as a narrative theme in a coming-of-age story about girls, and maybe important for video games to tackle more to begin with, highlighting such issues.

But still, I maintain that I am glad that LiS is not the game that did outright go there, and I personally certainly don't need a game to tell me how horrible that shit is for me to be aware of it. I don't "miss" this theme in the game, and cowardice or not, whatever good or bad reasons they've had not to do it, I can't help but feel better about them outright making it canonical reality that sexual abuse was not happening.

Sometimes hinting at something aggressively then later finding out it isn't happening can be just as impactful as it happening without having to directly "go there" and without impacting the story and the character's development in such a significant way.

>>168211813
>>
>>168213026
Also a fair stance. But if that was indeed what they had wanted to go for, then they should have hinted at it more aggressively. They cut out Max "accusing" him of rape, for instance. With that, the thought would have been uttered for once. As is, it is not.

I don't really know what the effect of this was... I did have an initial sense of something sexual going on with Rachel having gone missing and Kate's weird incident, but with the supernatural stuff entering the stage more and more, I just thought they'd have a greater, more interwoven backdrop for it all, tieing into each other thematically and narratively. ...But then it's actually just two madmen abducting and drugging young girls, no supernatural tie-in whatsover -BUT! also not for sexual purposes. Uh, ok? The narrative effect was a bit mediocre as that.

I see a lot of what they wanted to do with both Jefferson and Nathan individually, in their relationship, and in their criminal activity and artistic obsessions, and some of it they did pull off rather well, I do appreciate some aspects of those character narratives and the narrative themes established with and through them... but a lot of it they also just didn't pull off well at all. We get way too little insight into the specifics of their relationship and activity, their motivations and behaviour seems outright paradoxical at times, and their complexes are not compellingly explored in the game. To an extent where Nathan as a sexual predator could even improve his character complex, morbidly enough as it is to say that.

>AMR seems interesting
It's one of my all time favorites, top 10 for sure. However I will conceded that the gameplay is very shallow and repetitive. If you can find it for less than 20 bucks then go for it.

>at least in a way that doesn't show him as a complete monster that sexual abuse would undoubtably make him?
I think the game would gain more by sacrificing this supposed redemption for a exploration of sexual abuse, and specifically how that ties into the power dynamics of photography that the game already explores. Especially when, as you say, there's so much in the game already supporting the idea. As for whether or not they wanted to do this my best guess is a no. I think they were going for a "beautifully tragic hanged man" thing. I'd say they failed but your interactions with him at the diner along with the stuff you find out about his mental illness and his father suggest they wanted him to be at least somewhat sympathetic. Even if I don't think it worked (It's pretty cute that he has that best son ever certificate sighed by his dad framed on the wall though).

>Plenty of which do not include being a criminal filth
That's the thing, nothing he does wouldn't have worked just as well (probably better) with willing participants. Of which he would have had many, some may have even liked the idea of getting doped up. If it's supposed to be a power thing then surely it's more satisfying to have willing models than ones doing it against their will. He says himself that it's easy to corner someone in a dark corner, having someone put themselves in that corner for you is far more difficult.

>plane (:p)
D-dork.

>or Nathan called him and admitted what happened
Very likely.

>he drugged him

>>168213398
>beautifully tragic
;^)

I'll admit that that assessment of mine back then was a bit hyperbole, but I do maintain there's a lot going on with Nathan that makes for a well-told and constructed tragedy. There was a fair bit of thought put into that, as not least interviews reveal. His dialogue is indeed comical at times, but that doesn't make his character narrative, its themes and its cinematical handling less tragically compelling. But I agree that there's also "cute" aspects of his characterization - cute obviously in a sense of "I see what you wanted to do, but this is just... not the greatest storytelling", i. e. it takes as you say more than a best son certificate in the corner of his room to make me sympathize with his person -, as well as other aspects that simply are not well-told (at times in that they are not told at all, as you had pointed out back then - sometimes it works for the narrative and characterization, sometimes it is indeed simply the lack of such).

>willing participants
Yeah, that's one of the possibilities. He says willing models are not genuine, lose that naivete... but as I've said in the past, with what he does, he simply shifts the ingenuine nature of the model to that of the scene, the photograph. The setting is not naive. It's a rape bunker, lol. It's not the real, genuine world. It's a crafted setting. The model may not be willing, but its unconscious, so it is not unwilling either. It's just not a subject of "innocence", and it's not an innocent scene either, let alone a corruptive one.

Dunno, maybe they could have just gone one step further and made it so he does pose them while conscious... but afterwards uses sick native magic to make them forget.

>Just stuck a needle in his neck?
Just stuck a needle in his neck. Madman, of the absolute type.

>Maybe Nathan just used a tripod
Also possible. I like my theory though. :p
>>
>>168211184
>And perhaps Jefferson even blackmailed him after all.
I don't think Jefferson ever needed to.

>But it is possible he was simply in denial, that fits him as well
I agree. I've never been able to see Nathan as anything other than a cartoon character. Who Nathan wants to believe he is is so far away from reality, it fits that he would be in dental of it.

>now they are black and white
Possibly edits Jefferson made from Nathan's photos?

>the Dark Rook
The most treacherous of chess pieces.

>Further suggestion that Jefferson came into it after-the-fact.
I agree there's a style shift in the photos. Though some of that may just be post-shoot editing, it's hard to say. It's also hard to say how opportunistic Jefferson would be about having Rachel as a model. He would have been furious with Nathan, and he would have to use pretty poor lighting/ staging and such. He always struck me as a perfectionist.

>since the latter would come with disturbing implications
Not necessarily a bad thing. Better than "That's not as bad as I thought."

>the actual game that would need to address this in rather "uncomfortable" ways
Uncomfort is good sometimes. But they wouldn't necessarily have to show us anything, even the suggestion is enough on it's own I think.

>that his artistic obsession is even worth less than it already is as a basically
His ego probably told him he was above making such low brow art. But his 'art' is already so inconsequential, not to the characters but just as photos they're pretty boring. When it comes to storytelling I think disturbing trumps inconsequential.

>The victims notice something happened
True, there would be physical evidence of abuse too which drastically increases risk.

>even after overdosing her
Probably cry, "Why don't you love me daddy" while he did it. He's really that pathetic.

>but fortunately she woke up and bailed.
He probably gave her a lighter dosage for fear of ODing her too. What an asshole.
>>
>>168214518
>I don't think Jefferson ever needed to.
Me neither. Nathan was coward enough himself to not go to the police, even after killing someone. Coward and egotistical enough to even go on, after that.

But again, I do like my theory that he did not know she died. Not for sure. That Jefferson controlled him that way, keeping him in check until he's done with him and can initiate his (insane) scapegoat plan.

>cartoon character
He has cartoonish streaks without a doubt. His character and behaviour itself is not always the most convincing in what it aims to achieve and convey in a narrative context... but that context does work, I think. We should go into this another time more extensively, if you want. There's a lot I'd have to say about it that I don't have the time to go into now. I'm certain we'll find a relatively even ground on this. Somewhere between brilliantly tragic character and one feather away from duffy duck! :p

>edits Jefferson made?
Possible.

>The most treacherous of chess pieces
Got me!

>hard to say how opportunistic Jefferson would be [...]
Good points. I agree that this is not more than mere suggestion, not the best of proofs for my idea that Jefferson only came into it afterwards and lead Nathan on

>Not necessarily a bad thing
Well, it would be for me. The game was more than disturbing enough for me, definitely more so than I expected it would be. I'm not at all against "disturbing" stories, especially when they deals with topics of that kind in a way of narrative commentary. But LiS was not that to me, and I wouldn't want it to be either.

>Uncomfort is good sometimes
Definitely. And as I've agreed, I could accept Nathan as that uncomfortable suggestion here, since it is not quite as disturbing in its implied and actual narrative impact. ...But I want LiS to be comfy! So I'm glad that they didn't make it so. Maybe an indulgent gladness, but eh, there's enough uncomfortable fiction I've confronted.

Fair enough. I shall continue to maintain that, "That's not as bad as I though" is possibly the most detrimental thought you can have about a stories main antagonist.

No. That's just entirely wrong. The stakes being lowered is never a good storytelling beat. Especially not at that point in the story.

Good night everyone.
>>
>>168214518
>drastically increases risk.
Yep. The victims would definitely know, and the risk of leaving physical evidence (that is already high, and him not having been busted at latest after the Rachel incident is already criminally questionable...) would be even higher.

As it is, I can kind of believe that he got away with it for so long. He says he prefers they never know a thing, and it's only Nathan that fucks up the dosages. Jefferson would indeed be that perfectionist that knows how to keep them just how he wants, and they never know what happened. Well, the realism of the working of drug (how quickly and effectively and without risk as well as without symptomatic or chemical after-effects it puts them out) and perhaps the injection wound not being noticable is also to be questioned, but anyway, it would be simply not be believable that he could cheekily sexually abuse that many girls. So maybe that's one of the reasons they didn't make him a sexual abuser.

>He's really that pathetic.
He is. I can't stand him myself. I have a really, really hard time sympathizing at all. We share this dislike of him as a "person".

>He probably gave her a lighter dosage for fear of ODing her too. What an asshole.
That's the implication I think. And would obviously mean he did at least remember he overdosed Rachel regardless of whether he knows for sure that she died because of it. But regardless, he doth must go on drugging people!

I always wondered how anyone can look at the photo of Chloe he has in his drawer and then not completely reject all and everything that tries to "defend" him. He is a literal causer of terror and death for other human beings.
>>
>>168215153
>"That's not as bad as I though" is possibly the most detrimental thought you can have about a stories main antagonist.
That's also fair. It depends on what kind of antagonistic quality the narrative wants to tap into of course, but it's true that with Jefferson, they ultimately did seem to want to go all-out Disney villain, "pure evil". There's a hint or two toward his complex, but not at all compelling, certainly not narratively. So yeah, it's a fair argument if it was detrimental to your narrative experience of him as a villain. And it is obviously true that the game did become decidedly darker, and for the people that were invested in one way or another into that darker narrative, the half-assing of such is indeed a valid criticism. Wouldn't even had to have been sexual either - something related to the supernatural such as that using magic to make the victims forget, summoning storms, capturing and killing or using time travellers or whatever idea would have also made them worse, and tied into the lore.

I think they handled what I liked in that part of the darker narrative fairly well, and for anything they did not, I'd just say it never interested me much anyway, was foreign to the story and didn't fit tone or narrative. But that's me. I get and could also see myself becoming more interested in the darker, shiftier aspects of such a world as part of that mystery and crime story that LiS teased us with. I actually was so impressed with how eerie and disturbing they did manage to make it feel at times that I have already said in the past I'd welcome a second season that concentrates primarily on that type of narrative. Even if I wish "LiS" remained warm, soft, comfy and mellow altogether, and already wished the finale would be decidedly more so.

Tell me forcing them to pose in tea parties isn't more disturbing than anything else he could do to them! He'd even have some of those scary puppets and stuff with them at the table. It would absolutely corrupt their sanity and world view - a truly altering experience.

>"Hey Nathan look, a flying Whale"
>"What! No way, wher-"
>*pick*
What's the problem? That's about the criminal proficiency I'd attribute to Jefferson. He probably got the FBI officer to drop Rachel's case the same way:

>"So I understand you had been meeting Mrs. Amber publically shortly prior to her disappearance. A student of yours, correct?"
>"Yes, at the Two Whales. In fact, why don't we go there now? They have ~Donuts~!"
Then, Jefferson simply didn't show up to the Diner, where the officer was too preoccupied with eating Donuts to care, and that's the end of that.

I forgot to mention that theory makes sense. I was just playing devils advocate mostly.

>Somewhere between brilliantly tragic character and one feather away from duffy duck! :p
For sure, I'd actually prefer to see Nathan as a better character if I could. So I'd be very open to being convinced that there's more going on with him. I actually like Nathan in a cobra commander kinda way. He seems like the sort of dude to hold an evil telethon to blow up computers in Interpol and Scotland Yard (yes that's actually a plan that cobra came up with once).

That raises the question of why Jefferson wasn't smart enough to realise Nathan was a fuck up. Are we supposed to believe that Jefferson always has a scapegoat, and Nathan's just the most recent? I'm not sure if that makes more sense or less. It throws suspicion off of him but it's also far more risky.

Indeed, had the stakes been raised somehow I would have been more engaged with the story. Instead I was stuck having a conversation with myself going, "Wait, so he just like... kidnaps these girls, takes their photos, and lets them go again? That's it? man that's a lot of effort." Meanwhile Jef is rambling on about his lame ass pictures.

I think AMR is a good substitute for that.

Jefferson proceeds to put only one and a half sugars into her tea cup. Thus beginning her descent into madness.

>and that's the end of that.
Jefferson would later kidnap and drug a donut, capturing its innocence, once photographed he returned the donut to the Two Whales and no one was the wiser. He sent it to the FBI officer who became infatuated with its beauty. That is why Jef has never been caught, he supplies the FBI with a fresh stream of donut art and they stay off his case.

>>168217042
>I forgot to mention that theory makes sense.
One thing I will say now with regards to the conversation we'll definitely have about Nathan! - is that it is a let-down how little insight we get into the specifics of his involvement in and relation to the Dark Room stuff. It would have built up his character way more if we had more knowledge on the relationship between him and Mark, Rachel and David. Again, sometimes it works well to use gaps and that narrative volatility... sometimes it just cannot work at all because it gives the character and narrative nothing to work with.

For the Dark Room stuff specifically, we only have vague info that leads us to such theories, and if anything, it all paints him in decidedly worse a light than it seems the devs ever intended for his narrative role - since they do actually have Max say she cared about him ("more than Jefferson"), that she hates his actions but cannot hate him, feels visibly sorry for him when the call comes. That is a sense of and attempt at redemption that the the narrative of his character simply just doesn't justify. Max is an understanding person that would look for the good in him, but after what he did to Rachel, Kate, hell, Chloe? Maybe she could not outright hate him, but she would absolutely despise him for it. It's as if the narrative is not aware of its own implications, too much "gap" in the info for a narratively coherent stance on Nathan in this sense. ...More on that another time.
>>
>>168217042
>why Jefferson wasn't smart enough to realise Nathan was a fuck up
I've argued exactly that in the past. Why compromise his operation with a mentally unstable edge kid at all? Jeff's been doing this shit for a while - he doesn't need a million-dollar bunker for it, obviously would have his own equipment and money to get drugs. Why risk it? At best it was his sentimental idea of passing it onto someone, that wanting a protégé as a narcissistic endeavour of "this is too great to die with me". At worst - and likeliest - criminal stupidity.

And it does actually end up costing him everything (and should have earlier already).

>>168217797
>That's it?
Was also the effect it had on me. Confusion. And then amusement. But I'm kind of glad it did, not least for others. My nerves and stomach for the morbid are fairly well-trained, but even I felt uneasy before the reveal. Finding the DR, Rachel, the soundtrack and atmosphere - that was downright macabre, felt strangely, almost traumatically violent in the context of this story I had become so immersed and invested in. So if it had not lead into such "comedic" relief, I can see that other people would be straight-up appalled and disgusted by it all. If Jefferson had actually been convincingly portrayed as an authentic narcissistic-disorder-suffering sociopath that does monstrous things to people, and such.

As it is however, I could even kind of respect his method. He genuinely seemed to prefer they never knew anything, as if the even wanted to preserve their presumed "innocence" outside of his work. If it had not been for his cowboy killing spree, had they established that he hates having to do that to people, I would appreciate him more as a villain and perhaps even artist.

To an extent. What I recall we didn't agree on is whether the game "encourages" such "defending" of him. I think it does more than you do, from what I remember.

But we did agree on the important base argument: defending him at all is really very hard, and whether this stems from the game portrayal itself, or just general hybristophilic tendencies or similar such infatuation with his character as a romantical interest ("cute/sexy/suffering/mysterious boy") does not matter so much as the asssessment that all that defending is pretty disturbing in that they really ignore more of the terrible reality of the game than perhaps even Warryncucks. *gasp*

>him and Mark, Rachel and David
Come to think of it, Nathan seems to almost exist in a vacuum. We don't see him interact with anyone when he isn't antagonizing Max. In that sense the game almost forgets to even treat him as a character. He's just walking obnoxiousness and bad decisions. Seeing him interact with almost anyone he's not actively hostile towards would be interesting. Does he sass Victoria? Does he hang out with Jef or is it strictly a student teacher thing? Does David occasionally ask him how he's doing? Any answer to these questions would be better than nothing.

>it all paints him in decidedly worse a light than it seems the devs ever intended for his narrative role
I don't know. The fact that even Samuel, the eyes of god himself, says Nathan is bad news makes we wonder if he was ever meant to be more than a sandy vagina. Max saying she cares about him more than Jef says next to nothing. But as you say, another time.

>At best it was his sentimental idea of passing it onto someone
I wouldn't buy that for a dollar. Jef's egotistical enough to think his work should be passed down, but self centered enough not to trust anyone else to do it properly.

Well, we do have some interactions. Obviously that one with Chloe in the bathroom, with Victoria in Episode 2 in the classroom as well as that weird smile he gives her when entering her room in the ending cinematic, some subtle, non-verbal interactions with Jefferson in the Principal's office, arguing with David outside the school building. But it's true that he's a shifty character that we don't really see "be himself" much, if at all. Which can work, but some of these things are just too important both from a characterization and narrative standpoint to leave as vague as they did, indeed.

>I wouldn't buy that for a dollar
He does say his teacher-student relationship with Nathan did have its charm for a while, so he did enjoy it on a certain sentimental level... but then it's not only true that he'd not trust anyone to do it properly, but he already long ago should have noticed that Nathan certainly couldn't do it.

It's possible that apart from the money, he just wanted someone willing to look at him do his thing, wants someone to admire him at work. Who knows how many victims Nathan saw go through the Dark Room. I'd wager at least one - what else could he have tried to "copy", otherwise?

It's obviously stupid anyway. It compromised and ultimately cost him everything. Cost people's lives.

>Delicious.
The implication would be disturbing enough for me; had they outright gone there, I'd have uninstalled and hate-spammed dontnod on the spot!

The finale was uncomfy enough as is. LiS is for comfy!

>but my art, it's just too good!
I meant having to kill people, but obviously it would still require a well-crafted portrayal to not seem anime-tier dramatic like that.

And again, I'm actually glad how non-disturbing it turned out. All things considered and those pesky murders aside, Jeffy was a relatively comfy bloke in the Dark Room. He even gave me a sip of water and put on some music!

When young boys are abused, yes. But the system is stacked against female rape victims. The amount of proof necessary for a conviction. Rape kits practically rape them a second time.

That's true, hence I said somewhat Lovecraftian, which is a bit of a stretch in hindsight. The lighthouse, storm and themes of nature reminded me of some of his work.

>I always felt like the David thing was a dropped plot line or something.
Imagine if David was another father figure to Nathan, trying to bring him to the light side. Both have a fair amount of psychological issues. Maybe they bonded over that. It's possible David had a bad relationship with his father as well. They could've talked about that. Speculation, but it's interesting to think about.

Bayfag here. Yeah. That was my biggest issue with the game. Neither ending made sense. There was no compelling evidence linking Chloe's survival to the waterspout, but the narrative pointed to it. I wasn't happy with my decision, but my conscience wouldn't let me go the other direction. The Bae ending was too short and more disastisfying than Bay. I will soon fly to France and demand the money back as well as a free burrito.

>But it's true that he's a shifty character that we don't really see "be himself" much, if at all. Which can work
Work as what? The game goes out of it's way to show that people are rarely as they appear. The game accomplishes this (to a varying degree) with everyone except Nathan. I don't see how failing to make him a well rounded character accomplishes anything.

>He even gave me a sip of water and put on some music!
A class act!

>>168229215
It's my single favorite piece from the in game art assets. They could've gone full Evangelion, after Jef shoots Chloe we experience the game from inside Max's mind. The game comes pretty close do doing this anyway. I'd certainly have preferred an internal view of Polarized to the external one. I wonder what the final Choice looked like in Max's head. I like to think she saw younger Chloe and present Chloe facing her. With teen Chloe's arms wrapped gently around her younger self. She also sees all the residents of Arcadia bay. The final Choice simply asks Arcadia Bay or Chloe, no mention of sacrifice. Dontnod can't into logic so they may as well have gone for raw emotion, like Fantasia with lesbians.

Indeed, Nathan is a central character but he barely interacts with anyone while not being actively hostel. You can't help but be curious about how he conducts himself outside of that.

Vanessa lied! (But Max doesn't mind)

Polarized does kind of remind me of Evangelion a little bit. Specifically Max talking to herself in the diner and confronting who she is, who she wants to be, and what she wants. Makes me think of Shinji facing himself on the train.
I love those kind of scenes.
Unfortunately I think I can make more sense out of Evangelion's ending than I can of Polarized. The themes in NGE/EoE are present throughout the story and build on what the characters feel, both good and bad. The final scene on the cliff just backtracks on everything established and makes the characters act different.

I wonder if he would ever get better as he grew up and found someone that liked him as well. Hopefully.

Wot? Being awkward is just as bad as -stalking-?

>>168297105
See >>168297245

But also, just scroll further up the thread. There's still a fair bit of discussion going on about the game, new bits of art are still being posted here and there, people are still digging into the game files and finding potentially interesting content, and so on.

>>168298072
Well it could be perceived as Stalking. Which at least a part of Max thinks based on the nightmare.
So even if she knows it's not the case, and he just has a crush on her and is trying to score a date, she can't help but have the worst case scenario in her mind.

>>168297105
Sometimes having the same conversations each thread feels like a chore and I cannot possibly save enough (decent) images to post new content.
But still, overall the attitude here is comfy and some talks are rarer or new thoughts appears which is nice.
No word on S2 yet, but it probably is in some stage of development, all attention from Dontnod is currently on Vampyr set for the last quarter of this year.

Useless. Maybe if they hadn't wasted $$ revising the ending, making the new cemetery scene, they might have had enough for other things.

>>168303994
But that scene *did* happen, anon. Or at least, an equivalent happened. There was no flying bus, but there was a lot of other flying debris, lots of people getting their shit handed to them, fire, destruction, explosions ...

>there were no signs of sexual abuse so far.
"Although there were no other signs of physical or sexual assault on the victims" is what it says. There WERE NO such signs on THE victims (= any). That's a definitive statement. It doesn't get much more canonically confirmed than that. And again, this is on top of no single reason to believe sexual abuse was happening, and plenty circumstantial counter-suggestion. It just is not the reality of the game, everything else is fantasy - not unrealistically fantastical (of course such a type of criminal activity screams sexual abuse), but uncanonically fantastical.

If you for some reason like to believe he sexually abused his victims, or Max specifically, against all canonical suggestion, reasonability and even confirmation, so be it - but don't bring it up in discussion on the game, such as saying she would be suffering trauma from sexual abuse. That's just not in the game. Max does not herself notice or mention any sexual abuse, and I'm sure ~noticing it at all~ would be the first thing to happen if it were a reality of the game, let alone one that it makes a point of having her suffer from psychologically. And I mean, even apart from all suggestion and common sense I could bring up as to why that assumption is uncanonical, what about the mere fact that she has her jeans and shoes on in all DR scenes? Did he undress, abuse and then dress her up again, tieing her shoes and all? All while drugged? Why the fuck would he do that.

I wasn't all that serious about taking you for an immature retard, but your jumping from one daft or downright perplexing argument to the next, regularly ignoring the original point of argument as well as other arguments made in the process, and that all just to stubbornly defend your weird beliefs about the game that often seem to revolve around the girls getting fucked by men, is - apart from some of your shitposting - just immature and retarded to me.

>Work as what?
For example in the way you describe there, i. e. having this particularly elusive character that we get to understand only once it is too late. It could have worked in as much as they built him up as an asshole that we however get glimpses on that paint him as a troubled character psychologically, biographically and in conscience. While this aspect of his character does play into my idea of his tragedy, I agree that, if anything, in itself it works as the opposite of a rewarding character study. We always wonder what is up with this guy, his misdeeds and assholishness ramp up, and while we can make out an unstability and a sort of descent into his doom or madness if we read between the lines the narrative draws, the narrative function ultimately does seem to want to evoke a sort of empathy for him, a certain redemptive revelation... which doesn't work. I mean, it obviously did work on a fair share of people, but the more you look at and into him, only the worse it gets for him, and even the "revelation" itself - being his call - turns against him (making excuses for himself, for one thing).

I can excuse some of the misplaced gaps in his characterization and narrative, the lack of infos we get on things I'd consider important to make him more rounded as you say, since at other places I think this volatile and hard-to-grasp quality plays well into his character and tragical quality of it... but I cannot excuse that the narrative itself seems to get confused by those flawed gaps in info and presents me with an uncommitted stance on his role in it all, to an extent where the prime moment of his character function in the finale that is intended to make me feel for him, makes me do the opposite, and makes me question whether the writers even knew what kind of character they built between those gaps, understood his tragedy and his demise. The only thing I can imagine is that they did have a rather different idea for his finale altogether.

Frank did nothing wrong.
>>
>>168308903
Piece of shit deserved the bullet to stay in him for that and all he had done.
Too bad it was be too uncanon for Max to leave him dead there so it got undone
>>
>>168308903
I have sympathy with Frank and I see a good, lost man in him. He knows his path is not the one that will lead him where he wants to be; he truly did love Rachel and she probably made him want to be better, and now he's stranded between the acceptance that Rachel and him did not work out, that she's gone and that he's alone again - and the need and will to go on, his motivation having to grow from within. He also was somewhat of a friend to Chloe in the past, and I that loan must have been given in kindness, even if obviously not entirely so.

But I won't excuse his actions. If he was just grumpy or a bit of a douche, yeah okay, his prerogative. But swinging hard drugs to school kids, sticking a knife in people's faces, charging or launching at them with it, threatening them with a gun or choking them - that's unacceptable, especially if it's unprovoked and against physically non-threatening people. He introduced that hostility and violence into their interactions needlessly.

Anyway, he's not evil, can obviously have a rather good standing with Max and Chloe in the end, and he did want to turn his "professional" life around.

"If it's a threat to Chloe, it dies"
-Max Caulfield
>>
>>168309518
Even if she does throw it over the RV in that quick moment, she is worried sick and only goes on because Chloe reassures her that he's gonna be ok.

That's one of the less characterally problematic choices I think. The decision-making itself happens in a quick, scary moment, and she feels bad about it but goes on not knowing exactly what happened, hoping he's ok, and arguably fearing he could attack her were she to handle it differently.

There are other choices that are decidedly worse, two or three of them to an extent where they just have to be considered OOC, not least because they very noticably serve out-of-narrative purposes, such as the want to have player choice lead to "surprising" twists or "significant" consequences. Those choices have more to do with the player and an intended game experience than narrative or character consistency and authenticity.

>"I'm proud of it," Schultz says. "My video is saving lives."

Also:

>Six of the tornadoes across north central Illinois formed from one supercell thunderstorm. This includes the strongest tornado that was a long track EF-4 with maximum winds of 200 mph. This tornado began from near Franklin Grove (Lee County), through the northwest side of Rochelle (Ogle County), across I-39, through Fairdale (DeKalb County), and ending south of Belvidere (far southern Boone County). This tornado caused two fatalities, both in Fairdale, and a total of 22 injuries.
