So would Max.
She'd sacrifice her time and power to find whatever entity was trying to mess with her and Chloe and she would make that entity regret it. Max will fight for her Chloe and for their happy ending.

Better Then is basically the perfect Bae epilogue even though it starts off post Bay. Max being depressed to the point of attempting suicide to undo the Bay ending starting off the story is pretty great. I especially like autopilot BaeMax knowing BayMax is going to override her at some point, and how she resents BayMax for being 'the scumbag that sacrificed Chloe'.

Before Episode 5's release:
>Lol Mari's theories're shitty.It's way more than shitty to become true
>Chloe has to die thing doesn't make sense.Don't worry they will come with unpredictable story
>We're gonna learn everything about Max's powers,Rachel and Prescotts even Nathan,spirit animals..
>Jefferson knows about Max's powers
>Nathan,Frank,David or Samuel's gonna save us
>Victoria's with Max,she'll save her
>(After seeing Cemetery scene from leaks) I'm sure it'll be Williams,Rachel's or Kate's grave.
>Rachel's the doe and Butterfly and probably we'll see her in Max's dream
>Blue Jay's Chloe

After Episode 5's release:
>Mari's shitty cliche theory became right
>We visited the SF art gallery for 3 seconds. FOR 3 DAMN SECONDS
>Jefferson became a silly bad guy from Disney
>David came to save us.He's a former-soldier but he can't even fight,just listens teenager's orders. Even he doesn't know she has some time travel powers.
>Victoria's with us in the dark room.Laying there and we can talk her or not.Just it.
>Nathan get killed,Victoria too
>Nathan knew something about the storm but they cut it.
>Warren explained Max's powers(!)(thanks warryn) We found out her power causes/related with Chaos Theory and storm.It's not like we didn't know or something.
>Storm is only coming for Bay because Chloe lives in there but Max's the one who keep changes the time
>Prescotts story erased.Nobody even mention their name.
>Rachel's story fucked too.She isn't or butterfly,bluejay just spiritualdoe
>Spirit animals thing died.Blue Butterfly's storm summoner just it.
>Chloe dies again in one of endings (unpredictable) It gives you a lesson: You shouldn't have used your power.And you shouldn't play this game.Now erase your choices and cry like a bitch.
>Chloe has to die thing comes true, Cemetery scene explained with that.
>The other ending's short but it's less cliché than other.We saved Chloe,storm's hit the town and gone.That's it

>>180162107
Sounds interesting. It shows a lot about Max that she can be harsh on herself, sometimes a little too harsh.
In the game during the alternate timeline she's getting pissed at her alternate self for how she behaves and seems to just shrug off Chloe. I've read a few fics were Max is learning about her autopilot's actions but they were mostly with a lighter tone.

Why didn't Max trade her life for Chloe's and become one with the time stream silently guiding her friend/lover to a prefect life

The mystery is part of the appeal. If you don't pay much attention to her, you miss out on information about her that can help you save her on the roof. If you take the time to talk to her or snoop around her room she has a lot more character than the others at blackwell. She's still a side character and doesn't really have much screen time so obviously there's not a lot of opportunity for character development, but there's more to her than just that bullied girl.
>>
>>180166665
Indeed. She's amusing, dry-humored, and slightly volatile.

>>
>>180175879
>David, who everybod's got to love because he's awesome.

Are they serious?
>>
>>180175879
>Garris: It's her combination of strength and ferocity with her vulnerability. I love broken characters, I love flawed characters, because they're real. And I want more stories to celebrate flaws and normalise them, and explore how that's okay. I think Chloe is such a wonderful spokesperson for people who feel disenfranchised, for people who feel alone, for people who feel broken in some way. I hope fans will get to play her and embody her and meet Rachel and meet other characters that we have, and walk away feeling hopeful. About meeting people in their real lives and feeling okay about whatever it is that they're going through.

That's a beautiful and optimistic-sounding answer, that we will walk away feeling hopeful. Means it won't end on a shitty note.

This worries me a little.

Like, a basic example here, what if they establish Rachel as a girl with time powers at the end of EP3 as a surprise, but for DONTNOD, she was just a regular girl?

I don't want any conflictions like that, man.

>>180175879
>So what we did was create a version of the game where you can actually choose all the tracks, you've got all the tracks there. You can repeat one over and over again or you can mix them up in any order, and then it's Chloe sort of laying back on her bed listening to the tracks. So it's like a moment of calm, a zen moment you can control yourself.

>What we ended up doing was sharing the first episode of the script with Ashly. We knew that she wasn't going to be able to join as an actor, so we sent it to her, we said this is what we're working on, what do you think? And she saw our passion, she saw the story, and she got really passionate about it and she decided to provide her feedback. She asked to join as a story consultant. She's a fantastic writer, she works on Adventure Time and other materials so, yeah. Every single line of dialogue from high level story concept to any little VO line we've shared with Ashly. We talk with her frequently, we've had her out to the studio in Colorado. She's really become a huge voice toward shaping Chloe at this particular time in her life.

>Square cares so much about the franchise, about every character in the universe, but they wanted us to take the reins and run with the story. And it's a constant dialogue with them, around what we want to do with Frank, what we want to do with David, what we want to do with Joyce. And that's one of the best things about the partnership with Square, for us as developers, is how much they care and how precious they are with Life is Strange. But at the end of the day they really encouraged us to find the version of Before the Storm that we were most passionate about as developers.

>>
>>180177298
Sounds good and all, but always take what the creators say with a fair pinch of salt. Of course they are going to say Square's really careful and passionate about the franchise, because the concern a lot of people are justifiedly having right now is that, between the TV show and this prequel plus "Play One Last Time As Max!" extra, they aren't honoring the integrity and vision of the original work and ship the IP out to wherever the money could be.

But I also don't think he'd outright lie, and so if it really was Ashly who asked to be part of the project, that does make me more optimistic. I had pretty much arrived at the assumption that they had paid her for her name and face on the product, but if it really was the passion for the story and the character that drew her in and communicating with the writers frequently, that inspires confidence in the story and Ashly. I only hope she has actually played or at least seen the original by now.

He wanted the right outcomes. But its a high school, not the army or a war zone.

Chloe was a miserable self-destructive bitch. Arcadia Bay will live long and prosper with her no longer terrorizing the entire town.
>>
"Garris: Yeah. I had a chance in May to bring a slightly older version of our first episode to Paris to share with Luc [Baghadoust, Life is Strange's producer] and Raoul and Michel [the original game's co-directors] and [writer] Christian Divine, and we played through four hours - put the controller in their hands and had them play through - and watched them laugh and tense up and it was awesome, hearing their feedback and getting their support. But they didn't notice that it was Rihanna [DeVries], the actress that we got to play Chloe. They didn't even notice, they were totally immersed in her voice. She's done a fantastic job."

They didn't notice that it wasn't Ashly voicing Chloe? Who is gonna believe that?

Are there any news on Season 2?
>>
>>180180430
My crack theory:
Following the bay ending(ugh), Max is alone and depressed and thinking about Chloe.
"If only I could talk to her one last time...i wish to just to talk to her or have one last day together "
Then a wizard or some spiritual entity appears and grants Max that wish.
>>
>>180181157
we have no proof Max lost her powers in the bay ending, she could have just made a promise with herself no to use them anymore. In this case she would break that promise, just for one day

Finished my first play through this weekend, but mid way through EP 3 (Where the first photos were shown changing) I stopped getting sound during cutscenes. Feel like this really cucked my experience of the story towards the end now I'm gonna have to go back and play it again.

I had this issue, the cutscene sounds only worked through the middle channel of my speakers and that was unplugged. Try going stereo or mono depending on your speaker/headphone setup

If people from DONTNOD have seen the prequel and said they were enjoying it then that at least shows they aren't upset about it or trying to ignore it. The other day there was a photo of Luc meeting with some Deck Nine guys.

The only possible ending after the (hypothetical) Bay ending is Max eventually snapping and going back to save Chloe.
A twist ending in the past would be Max going back to save Rachel.

I see this post is eight hours old, but no one else has answered. So:
Ouroboros is very fluffy and sweet overall. I wouldn't call it the most in-character fic ever but there's definitely more the characterization than making they say their trademark words every few sentences. It acknowledges what happened in the game and in the past and lets them address it and they all react to it in their own fitting ways. There's moments where characters freakout, fight, Max and Chloe have nightmares that really shake them up until the other gets there to comfort them.
It also builds on other characters using what we knew in the game or with the author creating situations. There's also relationships and friendships built that didn't happen in the game but would have been satisfying to see.

It's an interesting idea and even if the plot doesn't progress that much every chapter, it's worth a read if you're looking for something cute and character-driven to fill the time. The author lurks, or at least used to lurk, here so there's a shoutout to /lisg/ in one of the chapters.
>>
>>180194303
This guy fails to understand that the game lets you choose things for a reason.
You're supposed to decide what kind of person Max is, at least to some extent.

I find David's bullying, intimidating and harassing behavior towards Max, Kate and Chloe to be implausible and out of touch with reality.

They are white girls, and except for Chloe, above middle class. No rent-a-mall cop like David is going to treat them with anything but politeness or his ass gets shitcanned. It is also incongruent with David's social status, occupation, personality and values as a rightwing Republican white man, and one who presumably takes the values of the military, which includes respect and discipline, seriously.

He is acting entirely contrary to the typical conduct for a man in his position, especially for someone with his background. In his home region, he would probably be ostracized for his highly disrespectful attitude and lack of manners, while in a northern town like Arcadia Bay, he would be slapped silly with harassment lawsuits. It makes no sense for him to act this way.
>>
>>180194221
That's how I've described it. Everything after they find the Dark Room eliminates the ability to be creative and smart, it just railroads the characters into making stupid decisions they probably wouldn't make and gives the player no choice. All for the sake of pushing the plot into the worst part.
No option to take evidence from the Dark Room, no option to call the police or tell David, no option to tell people about the storm, no option to not go to the junkyard again. These are all obvious courses of action and we're offered nothing even close to them.
It's especially distressing when we know Max has thought to do those things in the past, like when she proves to Juliet and Dana that Victoria was sexting Zachary.
It wouldn't be nearly as bad if Jefferson ambushed them the first time they went to the junkyard. The last two episodes are full of questionable decisions by the devs to eat up time. Time that could have been used in Episode 5 to create better endings and cinematics.

I don't think he was kicked out. I think he just chose not to reenlist. He says he wasn't the best soldier and it's clear he has PTSD, but if he was dishonorably discharged (Which means he really did something terrible and criminal) then there is no way he'd wind up with a job as good as the one he has.
Maybe the prequel will give more info but if I had to guess I think he was in charge or sentry duty one night, something happened, and people got killed. that's why he's obsessed with surveillance and monitoring people, he's scared it will happen again and wants to know f any threats before they act.
Now that doesn't excuse his behavior but it provides explanation and shows more than anything he needs help.

David is the sort of person that would rage out really fucking quick when being told "no", or refusing to obey them. They'll reach out and grab your throat but then stop themselves, and get really red in the face and make vague threats. Usually the older dudes have these issues when they get out and people don't obey them like they did in the military. I guess it does make you feel like a total bad ass when you're in the military and people below you have to grovel because they legally can't talk back, but fucks with your head when some dorky kid just straight up refuses to do what you say. It'll lead to quick flashes of violence because they're so fucking mad they can't handle it. They get used to being saluted all the time by people who are forced to be their bitch. Then they get out and are shocked that in the civilian world nobody will just do whatever they want them to. Things run a certain way, and if someone doesn't do their job you rage out because you're fucking up the system.

Combine that with being in for a decade and feeling like a big man because you can boss around a bunch of 18 year old scared kids away from home for the first time leads to disaster when you get out. Then combine ALL OF THAT with the fact that social media fills their heads with the idea that their opinion has more weight than anyone else, they tend to walk around thinking they can just treat everyday civilian interactions like they're still in the military. That fucking social media shit compounds it to absurd levels because some middle-aged woman whose son is in the marines is constantly posting shit on Facebook about how all vets are the real heroes makes them feel like they're a higher caste or something. They're quick to rage the fuck out and try to intimidate people when they realize that no one really gives a fuck about their demands.

When Max talks to him in the hallway in Episode 2 he says how he used to be rebellious like Chloe. the Army helped him straighten up and find purpose and he falsely thinks similar martial attitude will help Chloe, which it obviously doesn't.
Chloe does not like taking orders and is distinctly different from David. They may have had similarities at some point but they are very different people.
I think over time and after a lot of counseling they would learn to give each other more respect and actually start to get along. By the end of the game they've both mad important advances towards not being at each others throats all the time, with David realizing he was too harsh on Chloe and with Chloe realizing she never really gave David a fair chance.
They may not grow as close as William and Chloe were, but I see no reason to think they would always just hate each other. Maybe one day she'd even be able to call him dad, or at least David.

If the prequel idea ends up being a huge success then they may do more side episodes from different points of view. Or even more with Max and Chloe!
We have to be careful though, we don't want LiS to be whored out like some other IPs and where the sheer volume creates tons of contradictions, retcons, and just general low quality. That would be a huge shame.

This is why this game has such a deep emotional impact, it makes people realize what they do not have for themselves.
However, the relationship between Chloe and Max is extraordinary and shouldn't be measured up to real life relationships. Still, it hurts to know we're never ever gonna experience such a deep level of friendship and trust like these two

>>180209519
But I feel like others do though, you always read/hear about these inseparable friends who've stayed together since childhood, it seems way more common than you make it out.

Warren's a good friend and thankfully he starts to realize Max's true feelings and stop awkwardly trying to push her into going out with him. Kid just needs some points, maybe from Chloe, and he'll be alright.

>>180209283
Oh yeah. Max is a rascal. That also shows her autopilot can use the power or at least knows about.
I'm sure they had some fun during their little sleepover/detective session. Next time they have an all-nighter it will just be for fun since there's no more super serious mysteries.

I did have friends like that, but after highschool it was all over. Couldn't hold onto them unfortunately. That's what hits so hard with Life is Strange, it's a story about getting the chance to reconnect to a friend you've lost touch with, it's an almost universal experience and almost no one ever reconnects in real life. I had a friend a lot like a male version of Chloe, guy just had this magnetic personality and was always fun to be around.

Am I the only one here who doesn't think Chloe and Max don't fit together as a couple?
Chloe seems like a dirty slut who'd fuck anybody who supplies her worthless ass with drugs, while she's emotionally blackmailing Max into something sexual that she doesn't actually want, but goes with it because she's a lonely and awkward girl who doesn't want to lose her friend who obviously means a lot to her.

Honestly, I would have loved an option for Max to 'go ape', just for the heck of, to give the kid a chance.

Even if the player thinks Warren is the best person ever and perfect for Max, Max still doesn't have feelings for him.
>Agree to go ape: Max says she hopes he doesn't try anything or get the wrong idea and that she sees him like a brother
>Say no to going ape: She says she didn't want to lead him on and give him false hope

I really haven't seen a truly great post-bae fic that goes across multiple chapters. Most of the stories that seem to do well and be liked here are fix-it fics where Max saves both Chloe and the town.

No there shouldn't have. Max is a defined character and it's good that she has her own feelings so you can know and get attached to her. If she was a blank slate then the game overall would have suffered because the protagonist would not be interesting or have a personality.
LiS is not a dating sim or RPG where you can just make the character whoever you want.

We're not entirely sure about Rachel. She definitely wasn't lesbian, at most she's bi.
Even if they weren't together, Rachel was the first person Chloe actually realized she loved.
It's quite possible that before them meeting Chloe was looking to fill the void filled by her loses with vices like drugs, sex, etc. and hoping a momentary high would help her.
Chloe's own words were that Rachel saved her from Blackwell boys. Being attracted to Rachel was what helped Chloe realize she was gay and confirmed why hookups with guys weren't doing anything for her. Chloe was looking for something stable and a real loving relationship.

I'm curious about Vampyr and will probably give it a go. It's sure to be different and a lot darker than LiS but an action game with open world and choices like that sounds interesting. I just wish they did more with the setting, from what I've seen they don't treat the game like WW1 London at all.

If they really paid that much attention to canon and details then we may be in for a real treat. It's a prequel so they can't really do anything to hint towards the Bay ending, but they can hint toward the Bae ending by showing supernatural stuff. If they wants to go that route.

>Max is a defined character
I get the idea and argument, I really do, but she honestly was as much of a blank slate as she could have been.
She's a super vanilla passive basic bitch who lets others take the initiative in any of her relationships and even her ambitions.
And the emotions are not that well-defined at all, after it is the player's choice wether Max is attracted to Chloe or just a friend.

It's not a datign sim, but it was really unsatisfying to see that choices didn't matter at all. I suppose that by desgin and the developers have deterministic worldview, especially regarding to love, and I can dig the message in that, how it's stronger than we could imagine.

But from the story-telling perspective it felt a bit lazy that you could decide over life and death of Kate but not go on a fucking date, even if just for the whole thing culminating in Warren's broken heart.
>>
>>180221825
Dontnod didn't even pay attention to their own story and what they were showing, they cannot possibly remember every detail.
They were on good enough terms that they went and watched a Deck Nine demo and spoke with the devs. I think the whole "Dontnod hates Deck Nine" rumor is baseless and silly.

No matter what choices you make, the final entry in Max's diary will always end with:

>Maybe that's why I hated watching Chloe being so cruel in the nightmare, calling me names and flirting with all those people... I was surprised that it was like a physical pain in my heart. Is that the power of friendship... or love? I believe you're about to find out, Max Caulfield.

I don't think she was a blank slate. You know her likes and dislikes, you know her aspirations and fears, you get a general idea how she responds to situations, you know she's curious and will satisfy that curiosity by looking at things or speaking to people to get an understanding.
She's not the most fleshed out character ever and she's more subtle than someone like Chloe, but Max is still a clear character. Part of that character is her love for Chloe and dedication to not leave her again. You may not see it as romantic but Max clearly does start asking those questions and it's clear Chloe returns the interest in being more than friends.
>>
>>180221605
Hahaha. As part of my crack-theory from a few threads back, I was going to go and compare Season 1 to the BtS footage to see if she was using her wrong hand, and if they seemed different enough, use that as more "evidence" of it being in an alternate timeline. But in the end I didn't bother because I thought it'd be a little too obsessive.

Touche, Deck Nine. Touche.

But seriously, this sort of thing actually worries me a little more than it reassures me. Getting small details like this this right is a great thing ... but on the list of priorities for things I want them to get "right", it's way low on the list. "We went to individually count how many times she does things with each hand" just seems like such a weird use of their time, especially if they're being similarly anal about other details. Surely it's good enough to look at a few key examples, say "oh, it looks like she's ambidextrous?", and run with that? Or as >>180221825 suggested, simply ask Dontnod?

I don't want to sound too critical or anything, it's absolutely a good thing they seem to care so much ... but I worry this could be some "missing the forest for the trees" type situation ...

Perhaps my concern is totally unfounded though.
>>
>>180221605
Ok, this gives me hope. If they're obsessing that much about the details, they're clearly in love with the characters which is a good sign for the story. I feel like there's even a chance, what with them begin about Max's powers in the farwell episode, that they may be able to redeem the ending of episode 5. I can imagine the farewell episode being the result of a Max photojump and there being a chance for her to make sure she doesn't lose touch with Chloe in the first place allowing a chance at a different outcome for them or maybe something entirely different, like creating a timeline where she doesn't leave at all. I know that's hoping way too much but you never know. Imagine Deck Nine doing something that reboots the whole universe and making a game in an alternate reality.

Yeah she says she's going to go to community college in the San Francisco timeline. Chloe has a lot of potential and just needs some motivation to use it.
After the storm and everything she'd probably start going to school in Seattle. That'd make Max, Joyce, and David very happy.

They're outside stargazing. Max is looking at the sky and saying how she thinks she sees a shooting star, she looks over to tell Chloe to make a wish, but sees Chloe just looking at her with the most beautiful smile on her face.

I can kind of see a meaning in Max's photo, but that may just be after trying to justify it.
It's her, as the photographer, facing her photos. She is facing her memories and her past as everyone must do.
Sometimes that can be the hardest thing :To face your past and keep going, it's a common theme we see throughout the game. It's something every character, and everyone shown in the photos in that contest, must do.

I like her photo and when that meaning is applied it does earn some points. But it seems like >>180231187 was also part of it.. Jefferson would pick whatever she submitted and the school honored that choice even after Jefferson was jailed.
Even if Max wouldn't win the contest if there was another judge she would win it on her own in the future.

Sad, but true. Worst part is they could have easily fixed it just by moving events around.
But they didn't since they wanted to make the player think things were more interesting. Because of that, they left enough plotholes and contradictions to easily dismiss what they were trying to say and absolve Max and Chloe of any guilt about the storm.
No reason for Max to believe she caused it, no reason to think it could be stopped, and no reason to think it even killed that many people. gg.
>>
I think aside from all the plotholes in the bay ending, and it not fitting max's character at all, my biggest problem with it is that its an acceptance that we live in a deterministic universe and any deviations from the dictated pattern are unacceptable. Its a very bleak ending really.

>>
>>180233595
I don't really agree with any of that first part - I don't think "acceptance that we live in a deterministic universe" is something that would factor into someone like Max's decision - but I agree with your last point. Bay is just tragedy for tragedy's sake. But conversely, Bae doesn't really have any meaning either. That's what I was getting at with >>180233396. Both endings are pointless because ultimately, the entire game is pointless. It's just a bunch of random things happening that don't conform to any existing story structure.

Who knows?

As we learnt from Season 1 (and as Deck Nine seemingly learnt, as they've increased the time between each episode's release), a full five-episode season takes most of a year to release. It seems like the official Season 2 announcement from a month ago was done earlier than Dontnod wanted, and was simply in response to BtS being showcased at E3. That is, if BtS didn't exist, we probably still wouldn't have any official word on Season 2. It's not like Season 1 (or BtS), where Episode 1 was released only a few months after announcement.

Especially given that BtS's release schedule is looking to spill into the start of 2018, there's almost no chance that Season 2 will be getting released in the first quarter (or half) of 2018. And if it gets pushed back too far, the release schedule would again have to spill over into the 2018-2019 holiday period. I previously speculated that this was unlikely ... but BtS is doing it, so who knows, maybe Season 2 will too?

But, yeah, I'd go ahead and assume that we won't see Season 2 in the first quarter/half of 2018. And by that point, they may as well keep it for their E3 display, which might push the release back another few months again. Perhaps it will launch a year after BtS?

With all of that said, I was wrong about pretty much every assumption I made about how BtS would be released. So my expertise on this matter is zilch. Fun to speculate about though.

Max did not know she had the ability to stop anything since out of all the timelines she saw, the storm was coming.
Blame whoever gave her a power knowing it would create problems, don't blame some poor girl who never asked to be a part of it. By that point on the cliff it's way too past the point to ask Max to give up Chloe.
>>
This is the new Chloe's VA.
Say something nice to her.
>>
>>
>>180236220
On the cliff during the storm, even if it doesn't seem logical to you and I as external viewers, Max and Chloe believed that the storm would be stopped by allowing Chloe to die. Their belief is the relevant factor here.

>>180236268
She has an interesting fashion sense. Kind of want to see Chloe in that outfit.

They had no belief.
Max may have said it was her after coming out of the nightmare, but there's no confirmation.
It could just as easily be due to Rachel, as Chloe suggests, or due to anything else that happened. Even if Max did believe it was hers, to think Chloe dying would solve it is a big stretch, we've already seen Chloe dying doesn't work and don't give me that "But that was after she was supposed to die."
If she was supposed to die then Max would not have been given any power. People judging Max apply unfair standards to her, use outside information, and use hindsight. In that moment, and overall, she cannot be blamed.
>>
>>180236567
Maybe, throw some more spikes and studs onto the coat, some ripped/patched jeans, and a t-shirt with a graphic on it and I could see Chloe wearing it. That's just me though.
>>
>>180236595
There's obviously no confirmation; that's why I said "even if it doesn't seem logical to you and I". They did believe it. Here's the script:
>[Max pulls out butterfly photo]
>CHLOE: You could use that photo to change everything right back to when you took that picture... All it would take is for me to... to...
>MAX: Fuck that! No... No way! You are my number one priority now. You are all that matters to me.
>CHLOE: I know. You proved that over and over again... even though I don't deserve it.
[Skip a bit, player chooses Bay]
>CHLOE: Max... it's time...
>MAX: Chloe... I'm so, so sorry... I... I don't want to do this.
>CHLOE: I know, Max. But we have to. We have to save everybody, okay? And you'll make those fuckers pay for what they did to Rachel.

You see how there's no hesitation when Chloe suggests that allowing her to die will stop the storm? How Max instantly accepts it as an (undesirable) way out? They believe it, that's what matters.
>>
If anything Bay ending is your Max choosing to live in the timeline without Chloe.
>>
>>180237087
If you're foolish enough to pick that option then they have to try to justify it. Point still stands they have no reason to believe it and they don't unless they're forced to by crap writing.
The entire bay ending is a mistake that punishes the characters for nothing. Anyone who judges Max, or other players, for not going along with such a disaster of a choice is being silly.
>>
>>180193642
Waifufags can kill themselves, whilst militant lesbians will stay.
>>
>>180237280
All it is is delaying how long it is until Max and Chloe drive away together.
>>
>>180237879
Their decision to believe it was illogical, but they DID believe it. That's the point. That's what we've established. Because she believed it, the fact that the storm ended up happening in Bae is HER responsibility.
>The entire bay ending is a mistake that punishes the characters for nothing.
You're 100% correct. I think both endings are kind of stupid, but Bay is especially bad because it exists solely to be tragic.
But my point is just that arguing that "Bae is logically justified because Max and Chloe didn't have proof that letting Chloe die would stop the storm" is stupid.
>>
>>180237879
It's like if you chose to let Pompidou get hit by a truck or to let Frank stay dead. It's entirely out-of-character for Max to not rewind something like that but if the character doesn't then the game needs to try to go on and factor it in. Even if it was a stupid action that by all means should have been avoided.
>>
>>180238185
Max is shown the contrary many times. She may believe she caused the storm, but she has absolutely no way to know that letting Chloe die would stop it. If she rips apart the photo then she accepts the storm is beyond her control or not worth finding out by taking a gamble.
She cannot be judged in the Bae ending because that's an entirely different set of events where the storm is presumed to have been unavoidable. The choices exist independent of each other, if Max rips the photo before going back then she cannot be help responsible because she, Chloe, or anyone else will never know what would happen if she went back.
>>
Even if you picked the Bay ending, Max is going to eventually photo jump and bring chloe back.
>>
>>180238516
You're still not getting this. Yes, there's plenty of evidence to the contrary and if she were thinking logically on the hilltop, then she would have decided that there wasn't enough evidence to conclude that killing Chloe would stop the storm.
But she didn't consider that evidence and she wasn't thinking logically. Even though her belief that letting Chloe die would stop the storm was illogical, she DID believe it, and THAT'S the point.
>>
>>180233913
>It's just a bunch of random things happening that don't conform to any existing story structure
"A series of things that happen" is a well established story structure. Catcher in the Rye, which is referenced multiple times in the game, is a series of things that happen, for instance. It's frequent in Bildungsromans.
One could argue that Bay defies the nature of a Bildungsroman by acting as a sort of reset button, which is true, though one could further argue that such defiance metonymizes the core mechanic of rewinding.

Yes, the ending is shit. But it's delving far into /v/ territory to claim "literally nothing happens: the game"
>>
>>180238516
(I'm this guy >>180238708) and by the way, I just want to point out that I'm 100% pro-Bae. I just think everyone's attempts to logically and morally justify it are idiotic. Bae is justifiable because it strengthens Max and Chloe's relationship, because it's not needlessly tragic, and because it's what I think most people would do in Max's situation. That's it.
The very point of the Bae ending is that sacrificing the town isn't logically and morally justifiable - that action in all its amorality shows how much Max loves Chloe.
>>
>>180238708
She doesn't believe it. That's the end of it.
She has no reason to believe it and on the cliff she is still not convinced, Chloe only offers it as a possibility, and Max denies it. That's the only acceptable course of action for her aside from going back to warn others.
Anything else is OOC nonsense the writers forced in that should be disregarded because they couldn't prove it.

Why shouldn't people try to justify their choice? Especially when some people go out of their way to try to demonize them for it by calling them selfish, murderers, in denial, etc?
It's not unfair to use facts and logic to argue your side of something. Yes, at its heart, the Bae Ending is about Max and Chloe being together, but to just say it's Max going "I choose Chloe and fuck everybody else" is wrong.
It's that Chloe is her priority and that throughout all her adventure that week, Max never saw anything to totally convince her that the storm was from her. That part is important when you're in her shoes and expected to make a choice. The most important part is Chloe, all the other info and logic stuff just stacks on top of it to confirm it is the right choice to not go back and risk making things worse.
You can say it's stupid to try to apply rationality, I saw it's stupid to ignore fact and just blindly accept whatever is said as truth. Especially when you know it's not.

People take it as an attack on Bae, even though surely any true lover would pick Bae regardless of whether the Bay logic is absolutely bulletproof and there is a confirmed 100% casualty rate on the town.

Alright, LiSg. Since these arguments always seem to go the same way. Let's channel our anger in a more positive direction. How do we fix Life Is Strange?

I liked the idea discussed the other day of Autopilot Max in the Bay Ending discovering photo walk and it leading back to the cliff anyway through sheer can't fight fate/character flaw irony, but that doesn't really fix a lot of the other issues...
>>
>>180235045
>>180235215
I thought there were some photos of her doing the motion capture/voice acting fairly recently, certainly after the start of the strike?

Regardless, someone had previously explained more of the details of the strike, and it sounded like it was being directed specifically at some companies over others. I'm not exactly sure of the details, but it sounds like it might not be a total whitewash of all voice acting?

Further, perhaps there is some loophole given that Ashly is seemingly doing some motion capture for HZD as well as voice acting? That is, perhaps she's hired under some actress contract, not a *voice* actress contract? Or something? Probably just speculating out my ass.
>>
>>180239552
You can try to justify it, you just shouldn't use stupid reasons to justify it. As I said here >>180238961, there are some good justifications for Bae, but "Max and Chloe didn't know for sure" isn't one of them.
Also, saying, "I should try to justify everything I do" is a stupid way to go through your life. If I shot someone in the face, I shouldn't try to justify it to myself. I should own up to it.

>>180239756
Yep. Thanks for being sane.
>>
>>180239756
That's one of the big problems with the endings. Most people WOULD still pick Bae regardless of logical inconsistency or casualties. Most people did and only noticed those issues after the fact so they didn't play into making the actual choice.
The issue is that there's enough gaps in the story that it can easily be dismissed as bullshit which were only found after post-game discussion and examination. That's when it's realized that it's a trial of Max at the end where there's in no way enough evidence to say she is guilty.
People here don't care what the game's alleged themes are or what the writers claim, they care about being convinced and if they are not then they shrug it aside and adopt an answer they find more consistent.

/lisg/ is a very rational and logical place, perhaps sometimes too much. But I'd rather that than the other possibility where nobody is willing to look deeper and just judges things by appearances, then there'd be almost nothing to discuss.

I by no means think either ending is perfect. But I do think one ending is inherently inferior and that's that's given no support throughout the game and that has to turn the characters brains off to even make it worth considering.
>>

>Most people WOULD still pick Bae regardless of logical inconsistency or casualties. Most people did and only noticed those issues after the fact so they didn't play into making the actual choice.

The 50:50 split has been pretty consistent among general players since Episode 5's release.

>>180239951
Oh hey that was my suggestion for how the Bay Ending should have gone if it were being true to Max and the whole concept of fate.Glad someone enjoyed it.

If you mean how to fix the game to give a satisfying ending then show some scenes after a timeskip after the storm in an extended Bae Ending. Or give other options for endings like Max going back to talk Nathan into not freaking out and shooting. Even just a New Game + mode where Max relives the week with all her knowledge and some new dialogue options are unlocked would work towards making the ending less of a wreck. More chances to take care of stuff earlier on and warn people so you know they survive the storm. However, that would not change any of the inconsistencies.

If you mean how to fix it by making it consistent, but not changing the general concept and themes they were going for, then it would be: Have Max's first change in any timeline be saving Chloe (No testing powers in classroom or answering a question or fixing stuff), have her first rewind be a regular one that just rewinds her to before Nathan and Chloe entered the bathroom (No unique rewind or loss of the original butterfly photo), only give Max visions of the storm after she saves Chloe, make the storm and dying stuff disappear in the alternate timeline or after Chloe is dead in Ep 4 to establish a clear link, have Max note these changes in her journal and acknowledge what they mean. Then there'd be no room for plausible deniability on Max's involvement in the storm and no other inconsistencies regarding the timelines and power.

The jumbled way the story was written suggests that Dontnod wrote the beginning then the end, and then filled in the middle. Or they just weren't paying attention. Either way is amateurish which is sad because the rest of the game was very well written. I really hope Season 2 has a better story that flows from start to end.

Because of all the inconsistencies that ultimately existed during the game's release period, many people here on /lisg/ disregarded the Bae vs Bay choice as being way too stupid since it wouldn't make sense. Almost like they were trying to fool us into thinking that's where it was going only to reveal some other plotline like Rachel or the Prescotts. The logical approach and the sheer love people have for Chloe and Max made many people decide ahead of time that if for some reason that predictable ending did become reality then they would save Chloe.
Personally, I made that choice after Episode 3's release.

As >>180241054 said, originally the endings were split near ever, but making Episode 1 free seemed to cause a rise in people picking Bay since they were more likely to rush through the game and not see every detail like those who had months between playing episodes did.
>>
Baefriends, there is no point of saying "there's no proof" or "not enough proof or sure that letting Chloe die" because it's not true. There is correlation between the storm and Max's powers. There are other ideas behind the storm brought up such as climate change and Rachel's revenge but nothing more than that.
Max and Chloe came up with the conclusion that Max's power is behind the storm. You weren't convinced though but that doesn't matter. Even if you were convinced, you still would have picked Bae right?
We can rip apart the logic behind Bay ending all we want. How Max can't possibly restore the original timeline. How Max could save Chloe without using rewind. How Max would still have a vision of the storm before she got the power. Etc

We chose Bae (at least I) because we saw the love between Max and Chloe. Chloe was Max's top priority. Max loves Chloe so much. Max claims it was her destiny to save her. There's no real urgency on why such a decision needs to be made at the cliff because Max has all the time of the world to go back and make things if she chooses anyways.
We are not monsters or mass murderers.

IIRC, there has never been more than a few percent split between the endings. Especially given that we don't know how exactly it's calculated (for example, on finishing Ep5, I went straight back and rewatched the second ending ... did only my first choice get counted, or were they both counted?), I'd say the few percent difference is probably within the error bounds.
>>
>>180242371
Only your first playthrough's stats are counted.
>>
>>180242135
Seeing the stats aligned with the correct (in my opinion) choice makes me way happier than it should. I was super bummed when I first beat the game and saw more people killed chloe than saved her.

On a semi related note, have dontnod ever indicated they know they fucked up with the endings, or are they still at bioware ME3 levels of 'you just didnt get our artistry'?

Even if we shred the Bay Ending and rip it every way we can, it's not necessary and we're just reinforcing our own already steeled conviction.

Little funny thought there

Dontnod hasn't publicly addressed any criticisms other than saying why there was no kiss in the Bae Ending (They said it wouldn't have really been appropriate, which I can at least partly agree with. Even though right after Max rips the picture up could have worked for a kiss). Other than that they have been silent. SE has denied claims of budget problem towards the end, but that seems to be partly the reason.
I just hope they have seen the criticisms and know that they can improve, don't let all the praise and awards go to their heads and think nothing was wrong. If they improve their writing in Season 2 then we will know they did pay attention.

>How do we fix Life Is Strange?

I've actually thought a lot about how I'd restructure large portions of the game from Episode 3 onwards in order to "fix" a lot of issues. Or, more accurately, to set things up so there's more room for plot-related stuff. I've just spend the last hour summarising a lot of it, and now I realise it's way too big to reasonably post here. So here's a pastebin link:

https://pastebin.com/6SB0VeWV

Thoughts? The way it's set up, there's lots of free scenes in Episode 4 to finally do some proper exploration of what the Prescott's might be up to (and the supernatural elements!) Any ideas of how this could be done?
>>
>>180245731
Not bad but personally I'd remove the photo rewind ability altogether. Aside from forcing that idiotic bathroom choice, to me it disrupted the story's flow by bringing along multiple sequences that were ultimately inconsequential. Almost every single choice that appears in the final statistics page takes place in a timeline that gets erased in about 30 minutes. I know that part of the appeal of time travel stories is visiting alternate timelines. But it's extremely hard to make that work with what's meant to be a choice-driven game.

>>180246468
I'd mostly agree, especially since it all gets smushed into the final episode in my version of events.

BUT, I feel like you lose something by not having original-timeline Chloe properly die at some point. If we get rid of the photo-jumping, this can't take place, and we also lose the euthanasia scene. Maybe I just haven't thought about it too much, maybe this is fine, but I feel like we'd probably lose out a bit on Max's state of mind if we go from all of these "dealing with Chloe's deaths" to "Chloe is fine up until the very end".

Additionally, I do enjoy some of the photojump stuff. The gallery scene is nice (I like how it gives Max a big confidence boost about her abilities, which she has been constantly downplaying), and I do like getting to explore some of the stuff between Chloe and William in 2008/alternate-timeline. We could fit in a load more Prescott-plot stuff we we got rid of all the photojumping, but I feel like we'd miss a lot of the alternate-exploration-of-characters stuff it provides.

I guess there's a compromise here somewhere, where we instead try to refine how the photojumping works, what scenes we visit and why, etc.
>>
>>180222245
What are you even talking about?
>>
>>180247028
You could still keep the gallery scene. All you'd have to do is covert it into an epilogue. Max could even bring along Chloe to it.

And as nice as it was to see William, I'm just not that keen on the premise because I've seen it so many times. Don't go back and change the past, otherwise the time gods will throw a hissy fit with their "CHAOS THEORY!". It was obvious where the writers were going right from that moment Max stepped foot into her younger self.
>>
Friendly reminded that the only ending where anyone is confirmed dead and not coming back is Bay. BaeMax still has all her pictures and all the time in the world to travel back in time and convince people to properly evacuate the town. Even the few bodies we see arent set in stone. She could save literally everyone. Theres not a single thing stopping her. This doesnt even rely on plotholes Bayfriends will try to explain away, its just what the game itself tells us is possible. As far as we know, this wont even cause a storm, only Chloe being saved caused that. William being saved didnt cause a storm.

Disagreed. It is a character-centric coming-of-age and relationship story that is set in a mystery/investigation type context. Plot is not all there's to a story.

I see a lot of meaningfulness in its moments, narrative themes and instruments and their use, the entire story arc and even the ending(s). That the entire game is without a point and just a bunch of random things happening is one of the most narratively illiterate things I've read here. Even the people that despise the endings or the game overall do not think it's "pointless".

>as much of a blank slate as she could have been
Stupid statement. They could have literally given us the option to fill in her name, change her look, given us no backstory on her whatsoever.

She absolutely had to be defined as who she is and where she is at that moment in her life, for her to have the coming-of-age development the story was set out as.

>super vanilla
How so? She has a bunch of personality traits I find rather rare indeed.

How is it that we get hundreds of anons crying for a "Max gf" and thousands upon thousands of people adoring her worldwide, but she's apparently super vanilla? Having a peculiarly distinct vocabulary alone is already more than I can say for a lot of people I interact with. Do you have words nobody else uses, anon?

>passive
Yeah, besides the whole changing the entire universe with the flick of her wrist thing and saving lives. Have you ever saved a life, anon? How dare you sit on your chair and type into a Hindu Fishnetting Network's text window that someone who saves lives, reunites and fights the universe with her childhood best friend, investigates and solves a murder mystery, wins a photo contest and empowers numerous people all in the same week is passive? What have you done last week, anon?

>basic bitch
Hm?

>lets others take the initiative in any of her relationships
She takes initiative with Chloe, especially later on when she has come out of her cocoon more, thanks to the power and Chloe - something the story is explicitly about, mind you.

>and even her ambitions
She takes photos completely intuitively and out of her own motivation. And she does hand her photo in, eventually.

>the emotions are not that well-defined
Her romantical emotions for Chloe are something quieter, but they're there if you are not a romantical retard. In the words spoken and written, the glances, the touches. And the profound love is in the actions, that emotion is glaringly there even if you mistake it for a friendship love.

I've no problem with lesbians or with any character's hairstyle and I actually prefer small tits. The game is bad because the choices don't matter, the time travel thing makes no sense both in terms of gameplay and (especially) narrative, most characters are cunts with no redeeming qualities (Chloe) or bland as fuck (Max) and the story sucks because it's a giant mess up that makes no sense.

The thing to understand is that the powers don't have to make logical sense to make narrative sense. Time travel can never make logical sense anyway and comes with a plethora of paradoxes. The thing to understand is that the powers work for the narrative in ways that do not revolve around time travel. That the story is not about time travel, how to use or understand it.

If you really don't get that this is not a sci-fi story about time travel and try to understand it in that way, you are hopeless.
>>
>>180267140
>Why are you here? Seems you are even more lacking in character than the people you claim to understand.
I like the game, and the characters, but there are valid reasons for criticism of the story and gameplay.

When I say girly, I don't mean to offend you, even if you think I'm lacking in character, I have a soft spot for this kind of thing. It's a really cute universe.

It's just that the game was made and marketed for another demographic than that guy (probably) and me are in.
>>
>>180267809
>there are valid reasons for criticism of the story and gameplay.
Sure. But if you think their criticisms are valid, you don't like the characters nor the game, and you don't get it.

>I have a soft spot for this kind of thing
So you are "girly" and you like it even though you find it unlikeable. You are weak and "girly", then, by your own admission.

>It's just that the game was made and marketed

>>
Time travel served no real narrative purpose in this game, other than to make Max a more daring person, something which could just as easily have been accomplished by just having her hang out with Chloe, and her growth coming from her friendship with Chloe would have even strengthened the relationship.

You could remove time travel entirely, rewrite the story only very slightly, and not only would nothing change, the game would actually lose a lot of its major inconsistencies and problems.
>>
>>180266319
So then why are you in this general?
>>
>>180267780
>trying this hard to excuse bad game design
Time travel can't happen irl but in fiction you can make it look plausible if you establish the rules and make sure everyone follows them. Groundhog Day is a good example of that. Time travel works for the narrative and doesn't make you question it.
>That the story is not about time travel
The story IS about time travel as well as other things. If it wasn't then there wouldn't be a need to include it, it's not like it's prose or anything. Are you saying that the time travel mechanics are just a gimmick? Oh yeah that would make the game much better.

If you're going to include something integral to a story you better be sure that it makes as much sense as it can. And stop with all that "you don't understand" you sound like one of those modern art twats that try to make up excuses for their total lack of talent.

Anon, that is exactly what happens in the game.

>other than to make Max a more daring person
A pretty big deal in a coming-of-age characterization where it's explicitly about coming out of one's shell and starting to confront and take oneself into the world. But no, the time travel did serve narrative purpose. For one thing, it enhances the narrative, fundamentally determining the narrational structure, adds or changes things, lets us explore more narrative substance in scenes, interactions, environments and dialogue alike. The supernatural also acts as a bridge to try and capture an older generation to have that juvenile wonder and sense of adventure again that is lost in benign everyday reality as we grow to know it. It adds to the themes of nostalgia and regret, but most of all, it symbolizes the powerfulness and meaningfuless of the core relationship that it springs from and revolves around. It can be taken as the power of love in that sense, but generally certainly as a power of will, an effort this character makes to fight for what she believes in, to take on the world and establish herself in it, and a sort of metaphor you can take as her manifested self-doubt and second-guessing of herself that she ultimately overcomes, an analogy for finding self-confidence, self-love, and the strength in that, through self-growth and growth in the relationships we have, the love in them, the complementarity and challenges in them. The whole supernatural oddyssey as a sort of allegory on that path of growing and coming of age and realizations, coming into onself.
>>
>>180268638
>you can make it look plausible
If that's what you set out to, sure, you can kind of get it to seem like it works somehow. But not really, and this would be effort spent unwell for this type of story. The few inconsistencies we have here are avoidable, but do not render the whole use of time travel non-sensical.

>Are you saying that the time travel mechanics are just a gimmick?
In terms of gameplay? Pretty much. A fun, interesting mechanic in the context of a choice-and-consequence game structure, that saves people save-scumming and gives the the chance to explore the game more exhaustively without exhausting themselves with multiple runs. In terms of narrative? Very much a device that plays into the main, actual themes of characters and story.

But time travel as a theme in itself? No, that's not here. There no substance on the ethics and mechanics of time travel here. The devs said from the beginning the supernatural strange stuff is not what the game is about, and outright admit they freely compromised the supernatural for the natural story that it is merely serving.

>>180268747
>That doesn't follow.
If you think Chloe is a cunt with no redeeming qualities and Max a bland bitch, are you really at the same time saying you like them? Your taste in people is weird, then. But sure, it's no impossible you have a soft spot for that kind of character.

>by your definition weak side

Canon Chloe IS happy. It just took some time after the storm to reevaluate herself and her life, to escalate her relationship with Max, and improving how she treats her mother and stepfather.

>>180268201
I like the time travel power and think it suits Max very well to help her help others, and to also help herself gain confidence.
It's the storm that was a stupid inclusion that serves no purpose. Remove it and you still have the same game but with automatically better endings that don't boil down to 'pick a tragedy' with no explanation why.

Okay then so it's a gimmick. This makes nothing better, in fact it makes the game worse. All this effort could have been put into making the story and the characters better. Congrats developers, you wasted your and everybody else's time.

At least the next game won't have any of this crap. But then again the developers weren't planning for a sequel so it's going to be bad anyway.
>>
>>180270440
I repeat: The powers add to the story and characters in various ways. For one significant thing, they establish Max and Chloe's love as a literal timeless love, a love that transcends time, exists in all iterations of space-time, defies the universe, fights destiny and tragedy, has them overcome obstacles from within and without. It adds to this quality of their relationship in a way that is impossible without it, and that alone is more than enough reason why I would never want to miss "time travel" in the story, which I take as a story revolving around the two main characters and their relationship above all, a love story above all.

And even as a gameplay mechanic in the context of narrative-centric games, it is way underrated. You can explore the entire world more in detail, it's fun to just watch things in reverse, you can speed up or slow down the reverse, you can time the rewinds correctly to have things play in stop-motion, you can time them even tighter to essentially stop the world. All of which is fun, but also interesting narratively in that you can explore otherwise unexploreable details (plates of cars driving by, the numbers on the train, interactions you wouldn't have otherwise been there for, thousands of lines of dialogue, differences in interactions, expressions, ...).

Sorry it's not your sci-fi epic time travel tale. There's other stories for you out there.

If time travel was a gimmick then they shouldn't have bothered at all with it. If it's part of the story then they did a pretty bad job implementing it.

>they establish Max and Chloe's love as a literal timeless love
I'm not even sure about that. In the alternate reality where Chloe is a cripple, Max seems like she had an entirely different personality (she's like Veronica now, that's why she's hanging with all the cool kids). If she loved Chloe wouldn't she have visited her earlier when she arrived in her hometown, especially considering Chloe is badly injured from the accident. Judging by her friends alternate reality Max is probably quite assertive so her not visiting a loved one can't be excused. In the default reality Max is shy and socially awkward so it's sort of understandable why she hasn't visited Chloe even though she probably loves her. So by that it's fair to say that there isn't any timeless love because alternate reality Max doesn't love Chloe. In fact we don't even know if alternate reality Max would even visit Chloe since she get's "killed" by default reality Max and then default Max is the one who goes to talks with Chloe.

But then again the whole time travel thing is so messed up so who knows for sure.

>you can explore otherwise unexploreable details
That's fine, I'm not against that but in order to work you need to establish the rules of time travelling and make sure every one follows them, otherwise you end up with Life is Strange. It doesn't have to be complicated as high science fiction. Just watch Groundhog Day, it's a comedy with simple time reversal mechanics.

Again read this:

>>180275365
>because alternate reality Max doesn't love Chloe
She sends her letters and writes that she wants to visit her. She was afraid of meeting Chloe. She is in fact not a completely different person. Read her journal, which is the only thing where we really learn about her AU self. The opening pages are identical to her original self. And she still talks about Chloe.

It is also obvious why she hadn't visited Chloe by that time: the story needed that exposition for their actual meeting. The actual meeting that ends in Max destroying the entire universe, for Chloe.

>make sure every one follows them
Valid criticism of how they implemented the time travel mechanics (there are two or three questionable instances), but nothing against the value in implementing it at all.

>Sorry but your beloved game sucks.

But couldn't find the time, right? These kids have the time to go from their dorm to the diner which takes ten minutes or whatever using the bus, eat breakfast and then come back to attend school, but Max hasn't got the time to visit her old friend. I guess she's partying all day with her new friends.

How so? I agree that she should have visited her, but I repeat, AU Max is not a completely different person just because she went to a party or two. She could have absolutely been scared to visit Chloe, not knowing how to deal with her situation, the pain for the both of them in it. Their bond was still there, writing to each other, thinking about each other.

>we needed it to happen this way because otherwise our script wouldn't work
...That's how every script decides on where it sets focus. The narrative message of the AU is that Max cannot and will not live without Chloe, and thus destroys this universe, for her, accepting but more so embracing their pasts, and their future together. This is an important aspect of their story, that Max was given the opportunity to give Chloe a happier ending, infinitely more so than that of the bathroom... but didn't want a happy ending - she wanted Chloe, burning the pancake photo just like she was to later rip the butterfly photo. Determination, dedication, confidence in who she is and what she wants, believes in, cares about, the choices she's made, creating and destroying universes at the will and strength of their bond. Defying destiny and tragedy, transcending time and death, a timeless and immortal love, established importantly also through the time travel, metaphorically, symbolically, analogically. They compromised the realism and consistency of other aspects of their story, including the time travel, for the main things they wanted to say about people and life. There's different interpretations, but most agree that this story of people and life was worth telling despite its flaws (which do definitely exist, in both writing and execution).

none
>>
>>180290265
I think she only writers it if you kiss him and have gone with the other options that favor him.
Meanwhile it's possible to have the kiss option entirely removed from the choices, which it's not for options regarding making advances towards Chloe. Max will always mention the possibility of love for Chloe in her writings.
>>
>>180289197

Dont need to refute it.
He's literally forced at the end there to appease the warrenfags that the devs saw - every point up to then she expresses ambivalence at best and disgust at worst to the idea of being with Warren.
She spends the entire week mooning over Chloe.

Then, right at the end, after months of babbies on Tumblr whining about their lust for Warren - shock horror, the devs put in a little note about how she kinda likes him sorta.

The entire game puts them on totally different levels, regardless of one line which sidles in right at the end.

>>
>>180289197
The game always ends on Max running into Chloe's arms leaving Warren behind wordlessly. She was only in the Diner for the photo to begin with, which is Chloe. Even if you do pick to kiss Warren, which I would agree is aking to fanservice given that prior to that point she had found the thought of him making a move on her revolting and thought him more a brother figure, the game always ends on Max's nightmare in which Warren is depcited as someone she's at best scared of, romantically, and Chloe as someone she doesn't want to be with others, romantically. She describes how seeing Chloe like that caused a physical pain in her heart, and the only thing that changes in her last entry is whether she knows it to be more-than-friendship love or wonders if it is, and that the remaining scenes are her finding out.

If you ask the devs, they would tell you Warren is totally a "romantical option"; if you ask the story and your heart, you know there's no romantical substance between them whatsoever (and hardly substance altogether, with how little screen time he gets), and brilliant romance between her and Chloe.

Have you ever been to a funeral, anon? Not everyone goes because they were good friends with the person who died, it's pretty common to go to support a friend of the person who just died (in this case, Max).

Also it's a vidya and they wanted to show more of the characters in the ending.
>>
>>180293195
But some people wouldn't have liked Max or anyone else there without all the shit that gets erased in the bay ending.
>>
>>180292930
What is there to not get? They are Blackwell students. Chloe is the step daughter of their security chief. She also studied there for a time.

It's also a small town and most people know each other, at least by appearance.
>>
>>180293338
Then how did Max not see Chloe ever?
>>
>>180294170
Maybe she did, but not recognized her.

Remember how she didn't recognize her at first, and thought to herself "I should save that poor girl in the bathroom." in EP1.
>>
>>180291434
Goodness, no.
At the absolute most she can agree to go to a movie (Which she says she doesn't see as a date), leave a note on his door, or give him a kiss (Which is a small peck and then immediately erased from every happening, just so she can get back and save Chloe).
Even if you think Chloe dying would suddenly mean Max is into Warren, she would be too grief stricken or consumed with going back to save Chloe again to do anything.

Warren never had a chance with Max and never will.
>>
>>180294776
Chloe seemed to know Max was going to Blackwell. As you said, if Max saw Chloe then she didn't recognize her. What Max should do is just use a photo to go back a month to when she first came back to Arcadia Bay and make one of her first actions to be to contact Chloe again. Or even to go back at least six months and try to save Rachel.
Sure the storm may still come, but they will have plenty of time to plan for it plus it prevents Nathan and Jefferson from hurting more people, averting the entire situation with Kate before it even starts.

Lol what a joke. Even if you go full Warren in the game, she writes about him getting the wrong idea about the movie and at most she says, "he's....nice" to chloe in the pool scene and even chloe says, "FRIENDZONED FAGGOT". There's only even an option to kiss him in the diner during the storm because, he's going to die a virgin and she feels bad for him. Warrencucks are pathetic.

It only 'fails' to be a game if you have a very rigid definition of what a game can be. Pong is a game and yet it consists of moving a single object of a couple pixels. 'The game' is a self-effacing mental exercise. There are some really esoteric indie games that involve coding or messing with files yourself, or are won by deleting the game from your computer.

From a ludological perspective I'd say LiS is incredibly interesting in that the gameplay is simultaneously irrelevant and crucial. Irrelevant in that it is very simple and could be easily mastered by someone with zero gaming experience or carried through with little attention, but crucial in that physically maneuvering an avatar forces you to feel and engage the environment in a manner completely different to that if it were merely played upon a screen or written as a choose-your-own-adventure book.

I have always been baffled by the people who watch 'let's plays' of LiS
>>
>>180310793
Hmm I can accept the argument that you said the game is like a choose-your-own-adventure book, huh that's a good answer, I guess I do understand now why you guys enjoy it that much then.

>>
>>180312075
Neither.

It's Chloe's somewhat uncharacteristic hold on Max, in the hazy, low lighting. It's Max's expression of mild contemplation, as if she's thinking about how much Chloe's been through, and that she realizes what she means to Chloe.

Chloe's firm embrace, as if she can't quite believe she's here, that she could feel this health again, and that she's still slightly damaged by it all.

It's a perfect moment, and I fall in love with their relationship every time I see it, all over again.

I like the 'Time & Crime' idea that's been mentioned here a few times of it being a chain with a pocket watch one one end and a handcuff on the other. Maybe even each having half on their wrist so when they hold hands it fits together.
Or maybe something with the lighthouse or doe for Arcadia Bay.

No. Max was always destined to save Chloe.

Just imagine that the natural progression of the Bay ending is that Max comes back for Chloe, like she always has, always will.

That thought might give you some comfort.

>>180314754
None of the devs have ever really said how they feel, except for Luc who said he'd sacrifice 10,000 people for his love.
Even Michel, the person everyone associates with the Bay Ending, has said both are completely valid choices with their own upsides and downsides (Though I'd admit I'm hard pressed to think of an "upside" to the Bay Ending.) The devs have been neutral regarding all choices.
If you followed Max's feelings, then you know it's true that Chloe is alive.

Aight, but make sure to replace the BtS description text with:

Life is Strange: Before the Storm features Chloe Price, a 16 year-old rebel who forms an unlikely friendship with Rachel Amber, a beautiful and popular girl destined for success. When Rachel’s world is turned upside down by a family secret, it takes their newfound alliance to give each other the strength to overcome their demons. Available for pre-order on Steam, PSN and Xbox Live.

The lack of commas and disparity between "new found" and "newfound" between it and the LiS description trigger me.
