Asked someone working on (BtS) that if Before the storm really is the last time we will see max and chloe.

>At this time, all that's been announced is that there is a bonus episode where we get to spend time Max and Chloe.

There still may be hope for those wanting to see Max in season 2.

I agree also. They've had their fights and won them, and now we treasure them.

Sequels to coming of age and love stories are among the worst things out there, artistically. This story is sacred to many, milking it and its characters is sacrilege.

>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.

I just want to see the conclusion of their story goddammit. They confirmed Pricefield is canon but then cut right before anything happened unless you choose the shitty ending.

>>181458824
then read some fanfics.

So Episode 4 showed us that Chloe is actually crazy smart about technical stuff and the main reason she never amounted to anything and dropped out of school is because her dad and Max both abandoned her. Otherwise she could have been a straight A student and a great engineer.

>>181459039
Speaking of: is there any sort of consensus for what are must read fanfics around here? Pricefield, obviously.

>>181459109
Apparently she still has science magazines lying around her room in the prime timeline
And also, while everybody attributes the 'chaos theory' thing to Warren, Chloe theorized pretty much the exact same thing as Warren in an earlier episode (I think before Kate jumps?)

Id rather see a sequel to maxs coming of age and how she handles adult hood then getting another coming of age story with different characters.

Hell, it could be about maxs career and her getting involved in another murder mystery that she was involved in, LiS is beyond the scope of le teens coming of age and finding their place in the world as hipster art students.

Its also a tale of crime solving and super natural things.

Shit I want all of this. I'd love to see Max and Chloe's life after the end of LiS1, including their inevitable roadtrip and wondering around west coast to settling somewhere and trying to start new lives.

Btw Max would totally be the bread winner and Chloe would be her housewife strutting around naked in only an apron

I've wondered since playing Episode 4 if all the alt universes Max is creating left and right continue to exist or do they disappear.

Because if they continue to exist somewhere in spacetime there is either dying quadriplegic Chloe in excruciating pain or alt!Max being sentenced for murdering her best friend.

Could Max use the photo of the butterfly to redo everything, having chosen to sacrifice Chloe? Is this why she smiles when she sees the butterfly in the final scene? Could that be a way to reconcile two endings for LiS2?

>>181461075
So Max is the crazy girl that makes weird noises there?

Victoria is obviously rich preppy girl.

Nathan is the jock suffering under the expectation of his father?

And Chloe is the loner that hates everyone and is angry at the world?

>>181461372
There's no need to reconcile anything since only the bae ending is canon.

My dream would be a live is strange 2 and it sort of be like heavy rain in terms of theme.

We see max now 21 and her photos are connected to a lot of peoples fates she gets involved with solving a bloody murder in rainy noir Seattle using her photos to investigate things she may of missed and even using her powers to ask the victim of the crime questions before going back to her timeline.
Side archs would include Tea dates and catch up sessions with Kate.
and actual dates and an insight onto how Chloe and Maxs relationship is going.

Chloe and Max hit a rough part of their relationship mid season and its up to the player to help mend their relationship and solve the murder.

4 different endings
2 bad
1 grey and 1 good.

One of the things Life is Strange did best is revel in the tiny mundane moments of life and relationships. That's one of the reasons I'd love to see a continuation of Max and Chloe's story just for tiny but incredibly sweet moments like those,

>>181461906
Seattle is a natural progression from sleepy hipster Oregon town, yes. I was gonna say Heavy Rain might be a bit too, well, heavy but LiS made me cry way too many times for that.

But I'm honestly not sure. I feel like my ideal sequel would be just totally mundane life of Max and Chloe in Seattle or Portland living together. But I understand there needs to be an actual plot to fill 5+ episodes.

>>181461336
i highly doubt she would be sentenced for murder, its a lot more realistic for police to assume Chloe wanted to die peacefully and tricked Max into giving her a deadly dose of her meds by lying what are they.
It's still a horrifying situation to wake up to though.

We see kate alive in this ending even if you failed to save her, so does this mean max needs to also encourage kate to commit suicide?

The storm is a red herring, its a force of nature its out of Maxs control. The best she can do is keep chloe alive and warn the ones she cares about to get to safety.

Also

Yeah, that entire universe existing and continuing to exist is pretty much nightmare scenario. Either Chloe lives in hell for few more months/years and then she dies and her parents become homeless from all the medical bills or Max murdered her and that universe's Max has to live with murdering Chloe for the rest of her days. She'd spend her 20s in depression and maybe kill herself.

It gets even worse if you assume every universe that's a branching path exists as a permanent universe. Meaning that there is a universe where Jefferson kidnapped, tortured and killed Max in the dark room and got away with it and the help never came. In some universe Max spent the last hours of her life in an underground torture chamber run by a psychopath and she was then killed by said psychopath.

>>181462913
That's debunking something, but not really debunking the argument put forth, which is that Max and Chloe both agree that she needs to use her powers for utilitarian good.

The chart with all the lines about Chloe and the storm shows how this whole 'Chloe accepts her fate and wants Max to let her die' thing is dropped in literally 60 seconds before the final choice and is completely contradicted by everything said previously, including by Chloe herself minutes earlier.

>>181462837
>Ulysses is like 800 pages on one day in the (romantic) life of Stephen Dedalus. It can be done.
Oh I'm sure it can just not in this format for this franchise. Ultimately they aren't trying to write a novel that will confound critics for 100 years but to make and sell episodic game for people to buy and play.

That said, the mundane life could work as a small game of maybe like an hour long sold as a extra DLC.

>>181463361
>which is that Max and Chloe both agree that she needs to use her powers for utilitarian good.
Do they? Max's mantra and raison d'etre from the start has been to protect Chloe. She only gets stronger when she witnesses wheelchair Chloe and Jefferson/Nathan/etc killing Chloe.

And Chloe doesn't want to die. She says those things to help make a choice but she's happy in the bae ending.

>>181462913
>We see kate alive in this ending even if you failed to save her, so does this mean max needs to also encourage kate to commit suicide?
Kate doesn't kill herself in the timeline where Chloe dies because people stop focusing on her and the video. Nothing is changed so there isn't any reaction.
>The storm is a red herring, its a force of nature its out of Maxs control.
Then why doesn't it come in the timeline where chloe is shot?

>>181463519
Did you read the sentence after what you quoted? It wasn't supporting the argument.

So if we'll go back to 13 year old Max and 14 year old Chloe around the time when Chloe's dad dies doesn't that mean that we'll actually be 18 year old Max inside the 13 year old Max's body? And, if so, will we be the 18 year old Max the first time she came back or the second when she hugged Chloe?

Max didn't leave for Seattle the day William died. It happened weeks or even months later

>>181463530
We dont even know if it does or not

Why doesnt the storm NOT come when nathan kills jefferson.

Also.
There is no alt time lines, there is one consistent one. The proof of this is the fact that Max can not leave memories and fast forwards in time after she is done.
Second proof of this is the fact when we save William the world is still only just fucking up the same week.

There is no alt time lines and other wise the storm wouldn't be a factor at all. despite it also being a red herring.
Its called bait and switching.

>>181464453
Fuck, i meant why doesnt the storm come when Jefferson kills chloe.

If the storm was tied to chloe being alive or not the storm wouldnt of even happened since Jefferson kills her.

Even if the storm isnt tied to Chloe but its actually tied to Maxs power then resetting the timeline AGAIN would cause a bigger storm.

>>181464453
If the tornado is completely unaffected by Max's activities then it should have already hit the down once Max has regained control after rewinding and allowing Chloe to get shot.
I'm not really sure what point you're trying to make with the alternate timeline argument. If the assumption is that Max changing things with her powers caused the storm to happen, events that would have happened if she didn't have powers, like Kate not killing herself following Chloe's death, would not cause the tornado to appear also.

I feel that it makes sense that LiS2 would be about Max and Chloe because of the obvious fan demand but also because of how this is scheduled.

The main studio makes LiS, the offshoot studio makes smaller 3 episode prequel to LiS while the main studio works on LiS2 - to me that screams Max and Chloe in the sequel. Maybe even Rachel if they decide to put in ghosts in the sequel.

>>181464949
The funeral is only days after the rewind, The Funeral doesnt take place after the storm was suppose to hit.

Most of the time when people die the body is burred mere days after their death.

Chloes funeral wouldnt of been after the 13th or even on the 13th it could of even been a day after.

>>181465236
Its not gunna happen senpai. Just accept the existence of a new protag.

Max only regains control after a rewind at the point in time where she went into the picture.

Why not? They've earned their happy ending more than most and even if the story doesn't focus on them the new protag/s can meet them living together and being Max and Chloe in love.

The only reason people are even paying attention to this series is because we fell for the characters in the first season.

No ones going to care and the only reason people might care is to hopefully see a hint of max and chloe.

and anyone saying xd i WANT to see ALL new characters is lying to themselves.

To normies, yes Bay-ending seems logical because they have watched countless movies that puts on emphasis on "good of the many, etc", and so when they get to this choice they don't actually follow the story, they just choose the one that various other forms of media would have done

>>181467392

Nope. They are likeable and all but most people who picked up this game did so because they wanted to play a choice and consequence adventure game in a nice setting.

>>181468307
Plenty of people believe in the philosophies of utilitarian ethics outside of movies.

>>181467829

That's maybe why they bought it; that's why I bought it. But they came to love the characters, particularly Max and Chloe (whether platonic or romantic), and want to see more of them. Yes new characters might be good, but the interplay of Max and Chloe together is near perfect and what makes them such an endearing pair that would be hard to top

Chloe has one death scene per episode, right? Nathan in the first one, the train in the second one , the SUV for the alt!Chloe in the third one, Max in the fourth one and Jefferson also in the fourth and Max, again, in the fifth one.

Jesus, the universe really wants her dead. Which makes it even more romantic, IMO, Max is literally defying the will of the universe and/or fate to keep her Chloe alive and by her side.

People who get their ethics from reading philosophers and doing academic debates aren't going to be playing Life is Strange. And pretty much everyone else gets their ethics from the popular culture, the mass in "mass media" is not there accidentally.

Pretty much. People think Chloe is the leader in that pairing but actually Max is the strong one that carries and protects the vulnerable and hurt Chloe on her back.

Which also makes a really nice juxtaposition with their personalities since Max is shy and introverted while Chloe is boisterous and aggressive and extroverted.

She didn't have her superpowers for Kate. And half didn't have her superpowers for episode 5. And she was genuinely thinking about leaving alt!Chloe and her family the way they were if alt!Chloe hadn't been literally dying.

>Why do people like and care about THIS specific choice and consequence adventure more than most if not all others?
First of all, the game has been a success especially for its budget, but it's not really a success bigger than similar games of its type like, say, Heavy Rain or whatever TellTale'sbeen putting out particularly 2012-2015 TellTale.
Secondly, even if it were the reasons might have been plenty. The atmosphere, aesthetics, the the mystery, the way the relationships were written and developed, the fact that there isnt really a lot of games with this kind of setting. None of this requires Max and Chloe to be present as far as garnering interest in the sequel is concerned even if you already decided the dynamic between the two main characters from the original cant be topped.

>>181470342
I like smart Chloe. I wonder if Max will tell Chloe she has tremendous potential for science and/or engineering to get her to go back to school. She doesn't have to dislodge all the info just tell her she saw her alternate self from another reality being brilliant.

>>181470568
I preordered Before the Storm and I'm not even ashamed to say it but I don't care about Vampyr, I just want more Chloe and Max and Before the Storm has at least half of that.

Also I think relationship with Rachel and Chloe is interesting since Rachel is the first major romance Chloe had and Chloe clearly loved Rachel and wasn't ready to fully let go until almost the very end of LiS.

Also also I like that Rachel was initially a substitute for Max when Chloe needed Max but Max wasn't around but by the time Max does return 5 years later Max is now the substitute for Rachel, at least initially.

>>181470673

But they haven't announced anything yet, though.

second. Max won't appear in Before the Storm. Or she will appear in the special episode but not at the same time as Chloe.

Also if you don't get emotionally invested in the characters what's the point of playing LiS? The gameplay is borderline non-existent though I do love the rewind mechanic for literally letting you cheat. The characters and their relationships are the draw.

The photos burning as the memories never happened. Chloe dies never knowing she loved max and max loved her and never knowing all the trauma they went through. I was depressed for a week and im even getting emotional remembering it.

I made things right and played it again this time saving her.baeending should be canon anyways.
Bay ending would end with max hurting herself, that would really fuck a person up big time.
Plus the storm isnt magical and it didnt kill everyone anyways.

>>181474823
Max has literally no reason to believe she can save anyone besides Warren's half assed theory. She's given the choice to MAYBE save people, or definitely save Chloe.

Also you're crazy if you think everyone in town died.

Chloe is strong

>>181474861
>Hearing maxs voice crack, hearing chloe say she loves you,
The voice acting is really amazing in this game, too. I honestly didn't care that much about Rachel but I felt like I got hit with the full brunt of Chloe's anguish just form her voice acting when they finally find Rachel's corpse. The way she screams and her voice gets super loud and breaks, it gave me the chills. I didn't even expect it and I wasn't even that emotionally invested in Rachel's story but the voice acting felt so real it hurt me.

Also VA was perfect with alt!Chloe as well. The way her voice was recognizably Chloe but she was weak and out of breath and strained to talk combined with some of her comments ("I haven't talked that much this entire year") really made it feel real and like you were really killing your best friend.

>Bay ending would end with max hurting herself, that would really fuck a person up big time.
I fully agree with that. From all the trauma Max experienced that whole week the absolute worst would be letting Chloe die. I think Max would genuinely lose the will to live if that happened and possibly commit suicide later.

>>181474950
At least all of the people we saw die in the time line where max walks through town died. Also, she doesn't have anyway of knowing for sure that the disasters that seem to happen because of her powers will stop once Arcadia bay is destroyed, and that saving Chloe won't just cause destruction at a later date.

>>181474950
>Also you're crazy if you think everyone in town died.
They didn't. Ton of buildings were left standing and people have shelters. Even Joyce's diner was standing afterwards.

>>181475442
A tornado that size would have destroyed everything within miles. I don't care about Dontnods inability to properly model property damage.

>>181475348
>At least all of the people we saw die in the time line where max walks through town died

Not true at all. The timeline is different. If you buy into the chaos theory nonsense, any number of things could have changed. Those people might not have even gone to the waterfront and might have taken shelter. Max sends several messages to Warren's phone which dont go through, and the only time in game when we dont have cell services is in the dark room. Its possible Warren and others sought shelter in a bunker as well.

>>181475571
>I don't care about direct canon evidence of survival and lack of destruction

>>181475670
Why would they have taken shelter in the bunker? Max doesn't tell Chloe about it while in the photo and auto max doesn't know.
>>181475682
If we're allowed to use information that we would only know after making the choice then Max should sacrifice Chloe because we know that the storm doesn't destroy the bay in the timeline where Chloe dies.

>>181476002
If you paid attention to the game you'd know the Prescotts were responsible for the Arcadia Bay bomb shelter boom. Theres at least a higher than average number of bomb shelters throughout the town.

>>181476101
Then why didn't people hide in those in the timeline where we see all those people in the town dying?

>>181476197
They may have. We only see people who are either idiots or got trapped and couldnt get to a shelter.

Seriously. People make too big of a deal of the hurricane. "Max sacrificed the entire town", I mean it's a hurricane it's not a nuke that blew up the entire city or magical spell that took everyone's souls.

There isnt even different time lines, there is one consistent one or else that just messes up the point of the game. Shes rewinding time and rewritting history not transcending space into other dimensions. If she was transcending timelines a lot weirder shit would happen like black holes and shit.

She only thinks she might be switching timelines but shes as clueless as we are.

Good evidence of 1 timeline is the fact of the happenings happening in all time lines.
The fact that max cant leave her "memory zone" until time is in the present and she fast forwards in time to the present.
also
>max doesn't make huge random mistakes such as committing manslaughter against your best friend or murdering Frank.

There is only one max and one timeline and one everyone else.

>>181477069
>the morality of choosing to sacrifice a multitude of lives for one life.
Does it? What I don't like about philosophy is that it always seems as a giant generalization from personal preference.

Sacrificing many lives for a single life is not okay... except when it is. If the president of the US got attacked by a serious attack how many lives would be sacrificed to save his? Or the war is basically "sacrifice many lives for a single life" given form considering how many lives are sacrificed for a single life of a general or a leader. "but war is immoral", says you, okay but not even that is true, if all war is immoral than was it immoral to fight against the nazis? And how many tens of millions of lives got sacrificed there for just a handful of lives.

What is the difference between those being sacrificed and the ones doing the sacrificing? The power to do so on the one sacrificing and the willingness to die with the implicit understanding of lower worth of their lives compared with the ones they're sacrificing for.

In this case Max is using her power to sacrifice many lives to save the one she cares the most. It's not immoral it just is.

>>181477503
But auto max wouldn't have known to tell Joyce not to go to work. Did everyone else who happened to get trapped or stay in the town also happen to leave because of an increased pollen count?

but to add on even more, the entire premise of the game becomes pointless if max is visting new realities and not just rewritting history.
If shes transcending realities shes helping no one but herself and shes simply trying to find the best reality that suits her since she isnt saving anyone.

No nah i dont believe in the whole muti timeline theory.

>>181478047
Stop trying to use the nightmare as proof of something like that. The nightmare could also suggest that it's an irrational fear and Max's mind uses a vision of Chloe to disprove it.
There's absolutely nothing to prove either way if there are multiple or singular timelines. Not that it even matters since whatever Max chooses is the reality she and everyone else lives in.

>>181477953
That is some amazing gymnastics. Ignoring all your bullshit, how about this: Max making the choice to sacrifice a large number of people to her own express emotional benefit is almost certainly amoral.
>>181477927
"Timelines" are a metaphysical concept people use to think about time travel. We know Max probably doesn't create an alternate universe every time she uses her power.

>There isnt even different time lines, there is one consistent one or else that just messes up the point of the game.
I mean you can believe that but no it doesn't mess anything and yes it's entirely valid possibility
>If she was transcending timelines a lot weirder shit would happen like black holes and shit.
That doesn't even make sense. From scientific perspective, well, no one has done this so how would you know it causes "black holes and shit"? From fictional perspective, there's plenty of time travel stories that utlize the multiple timeline theory that don't feature any black holes


Also the game's writer said in the interview when asked about the endings that to him the game takes place in multiverse which makes both endings canon.

>>181478007
That's the Butterfly Effect. Any number of things could have happened to spare those in the diner. Maybe since Chloe went home that night, Joyce noticed how sad she was and heard news about Rachel. Joyce would know Chloe is heartbroken and take the next day off from work.
If there's no one else to work there then the diner would just have to go on being closed that day.
Or since Jefferson is arrested earlier, that means David would have time to see the storm, drive into Arcadia Bay, and bring those in the diner to safety.

There's tons of explanations that would allow them to survive, but only one to say "The timeline would play out exactly the same". Since we're never shown definite proof then there's nothing wrong with being creative.

>>181477927
>>181478416
I agree with you. I think there is only one timeline and the thought of their being numerous ones is never confirmed and is too horrific for me to accept as some kind of fact.

Their love transcends the fabric of space and time.

>>181459256
Better Then has a really nice conclusion and does an okay job tying the supernatural stuff up. Like a lot of fanfiction though the middle is kind of confusing and more or less pointless. But the ending works very well and feels satisfying without being hand wavey perfection for the characters.

>>181459707
I agree with this. Chloe only begrudgingly accepts David at the end and while she loves her mother, their relationship isn't great and Chloe clearly doesn't need her emotionally. I don't see Chloe having much regret about Arcadia Bay being destroyed. Max would have a much harder time with it seeing as now her schooling is screwed up and her friends are all dead.

>>181459256
There's a recommendation list in the OP

>>181482413
Chloe cares about both Joyce and David. At the end of the game she is realizing how much they both went through and how she really didn't help them. They got off on the wrong foot and would all give each other another chance when they saw each other after the storm.
While Chloe would find happiness with Max no matter what, that doesn't at all mean she should only have Max there to support her. She deserves her family and friends as well.

>>181481815

>>181460528
This. I'd like to see how Max matures and how her snd chloe handle their relationship and coning out to Max's parents.

>>181482641
I don't think love is cringe. And they pretty much say in the game several parts (but especially at the end) more-or-less "our love transcends dimensions".

>>181482641
you're cringe

>>181482571
Addendum: the same goes for Max. Just because she has Chloe doesn't mean she should also lose all her other friends.

>>181482663
>I'd like to see how Max matures
I loved the art exhibit segment because in it Max seemed more mature and more adult than normal. Normally she looks like somewhat scared artsy teen girl but there she looked like a professional published (is that the expression?) artist she's meant to be while still staying true to her character.

>>181482776
>>181482781

>>181482787
>Addendum: the same goes for Max. Just because she has Chloe doesn't mean she should also lose all her other friends.
For Max it's more murky. In the ending where Chloe lives Max pretty much chose Chloe over everyone, including all her friends and Chloe's family.

>>181483035
She chose not to abandon Chloe, even if it meant something bad possible happening.
I do not in any way see that as Max killing anyone or letting them die. She is just deciding that she can guarantee Chloe's safety and everyone else will have to guarantee their own.
Some people like to look at it like Max holding a gun to everyone elses head and pulling the trigger, which I disagree with entirely.

>>181482898
This, Also seeing her in the car driving with the rain behind her made max look mature as fuck. I liked the look and for a second you could maybe see the future. I want more of that. not another coming of age teens.

It would be better to see Max grow.

>>181483326
Sure, I don't disagree with that. But it's still the case that she explicitly chose Chloe over literally everybody else including any higher power.

Kate is a good Christian girl, leave her alone.

Yes, I love that part of Episode 5 when she takes charge, takes Jefferson's car, and drives to the diner among the chaos just to get the picture from Warryn to go back to save Chloe.

May have one. Let me look.

>>181483581
That choice comes from her dedication to Chloe as well as her being unsure that going back would even change anything.
It's not that she doesn't care about anyone else, because she clearly does and so does Chloe, it's that she doesn't think there's any stopping what's already occurring. As long as she has her powers after the storm then she can use her photos to go back and warn more people if it turns out those close to them really did die.
Even so, there's no reason Max had to make a choice like that on the cliff. They could have waited to see the actual damage and casualties but even then I couldn't see Max letting Chloe go.

How do I convince /lisg/ that the bae ending isn't cannon?

What do you think the deal was with Jefferson sensing something about Max when he says, "there's something weird going in with you" in the darkroom like he can tell there's some supernatural fuckery going on? He could he possibly have noticed anything?

Anyways, what we mean by "canon" is the choice Max would mostly likely choose. We don't even need to point out the inconsistencies or how the Bay ending doesn't make sense, we just listened and paid attention to Max's dialogue, actions, journal entries, and thoughts. throughout the game.

pretty much this. The Bae Ending is all about Max and Chloe being together and for that reason it's why most of us chose it even before episode 5 came out. Because it's clearly what Max wanted and would do in such a situation.
All the inconsistencies, logical considerations, and other metagaming just reinforce the point that it was the correct choice.

Guys why was I emotionally raped by this game? I cant even hear the songs in the game now with out tearing up and remembering what was going on.
even the 2nd time i played through the game knowing what to expect i was still smiling like an idiot when you save kate from the roof.
and i still shook my head as if i was there when Chloe asked to be put to sleep as if it my first time hearing that.
its been almost 2 weeks and this game and its soundtrack and meaning is still stuck in my head.

>>181486230
Raiden from MGR. but who cares? Max isn't a fighter and if she does have to fight then she needs prep time to beat anybody above human level.

>>181486427
>even the 2nd time i played through the game knowing what to expect i was still smiling like an idiot when you save kate from the roof.
First time I saw alt!Chloe was in a playthrough on youtube and I literally cried. Then I thought it couldn't be that bad if I played it myself, right? Nope, cried even worse.

I generally find that I need to take breaks and do or watch something that requires zero emotional involvement, e-sports, random youtube video, etc, to cool off from LiS. I love the game but my god is it both extremely emotional and very dark at places.

Who would win Elsa from Frozen or Max? Ice Queen powers vs time lord powers?

>>181485864
That looks like a completely different game. It looks more actiony. I also don't know where or in what scenario would Max end up in a hospital gown. I guess Jefferson had one spare?

It also looks like it's during the storm so either Max is rampaging across Arcadia Bay during the storm or she's trying to get out of town before the storm hits?

>>181485034
Is it a coincidence that Max looks like Jesus on the Last supper with everyone around her as the 12 disciples?

"Okay a belgian podcast pretended to get some leaks regarding the season 2. Obviously it should be taken with a pinch of salt but it doesn't give too much information to sound fake:
- the game takes place in the US, but somewhere in the East Coast this time
- Two playable characters this time, the lead being female. They don't know for the second one.
- The characters will be slightly more aged (university?)
- New power which will connect strongly with max's powers. They don't know what it really means either
- It will be episodic
- their source wouldn't tell them when the game will take place. Could it be before LiS and then explain somehow Max's powers?"

Any more information on this?

>>181492747
>but somewhere in the East Coast this time
Well the most obvious location is New England. NE and Pacific Northwest are like sister regions, very similar culture, attitudes towards life/politics/religion/feminism/lgbt, similar-ish nature (ton of verdant forests) and similar hipster culture.

Nope but it's hella fun to speculate.

Of course.
They came back to Max's dorm room to see them both sleeping near each other and some rain hitting the window.

>>181495646
>NE and Pacific Northwest are like sister regions, very similar culture, attitudes towards life/politics/religion/feminism/lgbt, similar-ish nature (ton of verdant forests) and similar hipster culture.
Is this like some Midwest canard or something? I've lived in New England my entire life and never considered PNW a 'sister region' or heard anyone claim that.

>very similar culture
NE culture is very blue-blooded, Boston Brahmin, Puritan, 'weird Maine people', etc
>attitudes towards life/politics/religion/feminism/lgbt
Aside from Massachusetts, NE is not nearly as famous for liberal politics as the PNW. And even in Massachusetts, it's 'limousine liberalism' rather than some grassroots force. Boston is famous for its racism.
>similar-ish nature (ton of verdant forests)
Yes, there are a lot of forests. But they are quite different types of forests. It's like saying NE is similar to Montana because they 'both have forests'
>similar hipster culture
This is the first I have ever heard of someone claiming NE has a hipster culture.

Closest thing to NE "Hipsters" I know of are the coffee shop types that dress kind of like college-bound lumberjacks. But all they really do is just sit there enjoying their drinks/food, typing away on their laptops, or playing music.

They'll make hella great parents

Would Max and Chloe adopt or would they get a sperm donor and have the baby themselves? If the latter, who would carry the baby? I think Chloe because Max would be worried time travel could harm the baby.

>>181499793
They use lesbian science to conceive the baby.

>>181499793
Adopt. The idea of either of them being pregnant is somehow... weird. But one can certainly imagine Victoria or Kate having kids down the road.

>>181499793
Adopt their first (daughter), maybe have their second (son) with Max carrying.

Wait what's wrong with the lisg discord?

>>181500876
Very polite but a little shy. Loves to draw and read.
They're a little younger than Max's and Chloe's daughter, who always comes up with schemes that usually gets them in some trouble (That's the pirate coming out in her.) But they're great friends and look out for each other.
Whenever Kate's and Victoria's kid goes over to Max's and Chloe's house, they get spoiled and given a bunch of candy so Vic picks up her kid with a sugar high.

I'm replaying for like the sixth time and I just realized that in the art gallery, Max has an entirely different set of texts in her phone. Her conversation with Chloe is wonderful.

>>181502217
Yeah, it's a nice look into how things went down differently that week.
If you're still there, can you point out exactly where the texts with Chloe change from more or less the standard ones to the completely different stuff where they discuss Rachel's death? I don't remember how much of their interactions are the same in that timeline, but it's a reasonable amount.

Does anyone think chasemarsh is actually possible? and are there any good fics for it?

>>181502360
Not there anymore, sorry. I think they stayed the same until Tuesday, and then there were a few lines after then that stayed the same (like the "Marry me, illegal in Oregon for now, fuq that shit, elope" lines).

>>181502217
That week really is great. Hopefully everything after the ending is similar with them being happier despite all they went through and with Chloe starting to user her potential.

This one is alright.

>>181502392
It would definitely take a lot of effort on both their parts, especially Victoria's, to make it work but the rewards could be very satisfying.
If Victoria is really truly sorry and wants to become a better person then Kate can help her, and Victoria can help Kate deal with issues of people treating her poorly.
As for fics about them their friendship and eventual relationship are part of Ourobors but I don't know of any really good fics centered on them.

>>181502461
I just checked on the wiki in the meantime. The 'elope' like is exactly the same, meaning the exchange with Frank in the junkyard happened in both timelines, and the earlier texts reference the same 1st-day meetup and snow.
It's unfortunate that the pool break-in and all the interactions the next day are seemingly erased, though they still clearly spend a lot of time together grieving over Rachel and have become very close.
