SJW and reddit shit aside this was literally one of the best endings in video games. Prove me wrong.
protip:you can't
Literally tumblr. She had blue hair and hated on men for being men. Also, it's barely a game.
>>321520670
>She had blue hair and hated on men for being men.
Chloe wasn't meant to be relatable, but she grows on you and that's whyaccepting her inevitable death was so hard
>>321521249
>spoiler
Not really.
I think I realized by the start of Episode 4 thatkeeping her alive was why everything was getting so fucked up. It's not a hard choice to make, especially when the alternative isletting literally every other person die for her sake, with no actual guarentee that it'll stop the natural disasters
>>321521493
She was a good friend though, and realizing thatthe person you spent the adventure of a lifetime doesn't even exist anymore was a strong feeling.But I guess that's just me.
>>321521837
> good friend
Literally every single time you might have just not agreed with her she got pissy at you and goes like "what could I expect when u didn't even see me in so long" like bitch stfu
Whencrippled Chloeasked you tokill her ;_;.
>>321522004
Everyone she ever cared about got taken away from her, anon. Of course she's gonna be an emotional mess.
>>321522004
Well, yeah, but in your moments of weakness she was there for you. And she's far from the kind of person that deserves the universe to go full Final Destination on his ass.
>>321522214
I don't care, if I'm gonna try to be with her, and the moment I question her or say something that doesn't agree with her she fucks me, I'm not going to emotionally connect with her as a character. Because the writer makes her react as a shitty friend. It doesn't excuse her
>>321522321

>>321522417
Would a person you're talking about deal withhaving to die like Chloe did?
>>321522492
I have no idea actually. What is she like?
The only thing that i don't like about the ending is deus ex tornado. Would've been better if things didn't work out on their own instead.
>>321522626

What?
I really like this game, it wasn't perfect but I was definitely invested in the story. When I first looked up what people thought about the last episode after I played it I was surprised everyone seems to hate it so much.
I feel like this game was a cheap knockoff of telltale games, only with a mediocre storyline, less relatable and likable characters and a dull gameplay that relies too much on a very flawed plot that revolves around a bunch of unlikable people.
>>321522136
I said Yes. I didn't think Chloe would ever be happy living like that. And she was in full control of her mental faculties, so it was a decision she had the capacity to make.
>>321525549
Fuck you tumblr/redditard
>>321522004
Agreed, she was like bitch calm the fuck down.
>Best endings
No, it had a great story, up UNTIL the ending, which was idiotic garbage.

>>321523529
I didn't manage to save her the first time, and I was surprised to find myself thinking about it the next day. I did try and give her as much attention and support as I could.
On a recent playthrough with a friend I told him to pay particular attention to helping her and she survived.

>>321526247
I was being sarcastic.. You're pretty dumb yourself for not getting that.
>>321522136
I did it without thinking twice but then I figured that she would actually probably want it that way so I undid it and let her live because letting her suffer is way more brutal. When I told her later on her reaction didn't change though it sucks.

The time traveling plot was handled much,much worse,that's certain, but I didn't really feel that way since the setting and atmosphere are so different between the two.

I know people will call bullshit and never ending post of (You)'s but honest to god i prefered Life is Strange over Undertale, not because its good, because it was a nonstop train of laughing at how bad the writing wasi mean the gameplay was pretty fun if you like point and clicks

They work because the writers are fucking insane
Just take the scene where you steal Franks keys, where you can take an object, travel back in time and still have the object
Its King Crimson time deleting bullshit and i get angry at my brain thinking about it.
>>321541529
Chloe wouldn't be mad at you. She was the one that suggested Max let her die.
Which is stupid in itself because Max would have no reason to believe it would work.
Now that would have been an interesting ending, let Chloe die and the storm still comes.
>>321526540
>>321527517
I don't get it.
>>321541529
and that S02 would be, like 15 minutes long. It's literally go back and live normally instead of changing anything she changed just because of her powers.
>>321541752
Well your clothes and bag travel back with you
Max doesn't travel through time naked
What happens is that anything which is a few inches from Max travels through time with her
Which is why when Chloe threw the RV keys away the guy isn't stuck outside, there were 2 sets of keys in that timeline
>>321542339
>What happens is that anything which is a few inches from Max travels through time with her
I hope you know that makes zero sense
You cant continue from taking Franks keys unless you go back, so you'd have to put the keys back for him to not be mad. Its not Terminator travelling back in time, its visually rewinding the time.
Its the same as if you drove forward in a car, rewinded the time, and had the car was forward but the speedo was still lower and the gas never got consumed.
Also, you can walk forward, rewind time, and still be in the spot you were before you rewinded, so to everybody else you're just blinking from place to place and thats just a-ok.
>>321542317
No
S2 continues from Max and Chloe traveling and creating chaos because of the paradoxes or whatever
That's my sort of headcanon, bay ending is either incomplete and what I said will happen or an outright hallucination
The tornado is the universe's way of fixing the time discrepancies by destroying everything that changed
The nightmare was the universe's way of trying to mindbreak Max to stop her from fucking up the timeline even more
They're published by SE, they might as well go nuts with crazy weird plots
>>321541876
Exactly
The moral of the game is that time travel always fucks shit up so that's what it does
>>321527662
No, they employ people to make threads where they know their market may be. /v/ is a big board for videogames. They shill on leddit and similar websites, too.

Without a doubt. Its all done externally. Publishers will allocate an advertising budget and they'll just pay one or more company/companies to work on making the ads for sites and getting them in the adsense rotation, thumbing up youtube videos of the said game/games, irl advertising (bustops, walls of buildings etc) and in some and mainly most cases will be online gorilla marketing, going on Reddit, NeoGAF, Youtube and any other side with either a username or no-username system and positively praise the game. The more they shill the more chance the companies will return to them with more games to shill. More than a few know that this place is easily fooled, and they'll just shill here for even more exposure.
>>321540053
>i mean the gameplay was pretty fun if you like point and clicks
>>321542841
Nice car metaphor, wanna know why it's perfect? You can't rewi d while in the car during the game? When max goes back in time she stays in the same place, on a global scale not universal scale or she'd get thrown out of the atmosphere, and if she rewinded she'd possibly maintain her momentum but not be in the car anymore
Remember the night you break into the principal's office? Yes, Max pretty much teleported in there
Remember when you saved Kate? That was sort of an example of what happens when Max rewinds, she pretty much teleports
>>321544181
>>321542841
So basically since Max rewinds along with her clothes and bag, obviously everything in her pockets and bag travels with her
You do it a million times in the game, like when you're collecting the bottles for Chloe and that pile of trash blocks you for instance
>>321544382
>So basically since Max rewinds along with her clothes and bag, obviously everything in her pockets and bag travels with her
How are you not getting this?
Her travelling with her clothes and bag means nothing, she's not travelling, she's rewinding. Anything on her will be on her.
The rewind makes no sense, and it never makes sense within the game. Its like you Temple of Doom rip someones heart out and then just rewind, keep the heart and everything is fine, thats how nonsensical Life is Strange rewinding is.

>>321542967
>S2 continues from Max and Chloe traveling and creating chaos because of the paradoxes or whatever
only if we consider chloe survived. That's very unlikely. Even so, there is not much story in fucking everywhere you go. It's clear that the 'paradox' is not something they can fight against. The only way would be live your life without using her powers. You're really trying hard to justify the plot hole, but that's what it is: a plot hole. There is no reason for the event of letting Chloe live to change so much, and everything else not change anything.
>The tornado is the universe's way of fixing the time discrepancies by destroying everything that changed
except she changed things anyway in both endings. Chloe dies, but she still made her teacher go to jail, for example. The game is just bad.
>>321545392
Yes she did
She still told David about Jefferson
In the bay ending Jefferson still gets arrested because Max warned David before going back and letting Chloe die
>>321545392
her teacher goes to jail, for example.
>>321545431
>Very limited form of time travel
Not at all
Max didn't travel back to when her and Chloe were kids, she rewinded, that's why she was a kid as well. You gotta learn the difference between traveling and rewinding. Traveling is a blink or a jump, rewinding is turning it all back.
The way it doesn't make sense is that she can rewind while standing still. Like if she rewinded all the way to when she was a kid but if it was the same as day to day rewinding she'd be standing in one spot for like 8 years.
I'll try and explain the temple of doom reference a bit easier.
Imagine if the game forced you to kill and cut open Chloe to take something out of her like a razor she swallowed or some pills, and then when you have them all in your blood stained hands you rewind, the blood and the poison pills in your hands and not in Chloe, and Chloe is good as new. Thats actually how Life is Strange rewinding works and it makes zero sense.
>>321536361
You're a thirsty virgin?
>>321545695
See >>321541529
That's what I said, the tornado still happens
The tornado happens because of all the changes she does, not just Chloe
It'd be fun if Max has to fight against another time rewinder
>>321546051
Photo travel is different
That's a completely different form of time travel with only her conciousness travelling in her old body along with her powers
And the way her rewind workd in LiS is this
Max can beat up somebody and rip off a tooth
Then she rewinds while having the tooth in her hand
Now the other guy is ok with all his teeth and Max has the tooth from another timeline that she then erased
So say Chloe accidentally swallows cyanide pills and Max needs to save her
If she cuts her up and removes the pills from her stomach and then rewinds, Chloe will still have the pills in her stomach while Max holds pills from another universe
This is how time travel works in Lis
Yeah you can make billions by rewinding tons of times
best 2015 game after W3 desu
>>321545786
That's because rich kid rats him out
>>321546706
And I just figured out another plot hole
When they steal the money in ep3, they could have put the money in Max's bag and then rewinded to have another bag basically creating a duplicate
Unless of course the removal of something from one timeline and then rewinding causes the item to disappear in all timelines and only exist once in Max's bag
Which might be correct because of how the bottles work in ep2
In which case it would avoid crazy duplicates and excessive paradoxes
>>321520465
The only reason nobody can prove you wrong is that latterly no one has ever played that c game
I never liked chloe at all. I don't see why people praise her so much. People even cried when she Droid
>>321520465
the ending to life is strange is on par with the ending to Mass Effect 3, except instead of three idiotic choices it gives you two.
What's the fucking point of letting the whole town die if you don't actually get to see the carnage? They sort of gloss over that, don't they? Everyone fucking dies but you don't see a single body, or how the whole town gets wiped out. And Chloe and Max are just driving through a ghost town with big stupid grins on their faces, they might as well have been listening to a Pitbull song on the radio it was so idiotic. It's the biggest cop out I've ever seen.
>>321547379
I didn't like her in ep1
I started loving her from ep2 onwards
Because she made Max do fun stuff with her powers
>let's shoot some bottles
>let's crash that car
>let's break into the school
>let's go in the pool
Fun girl
I would have done more crazy crap though
>>321547668
The bay ending was the cop out
Bae was alright
You see the tornado hit and suck up the town and just basically go along with Chloe's "glass the place" fantasy from ep1
>>321547379
Her being with Max felt right.
>>321520465
Chloe ending was alright I suppose. Felt unfinished though.
So why exactly couldn't she warn the city that there is a tornado coming? She could have saved the lesbo and all the people.
>>321546706
and as i said, that game would be 15 minutes long. Literally just go back in time to do everything without changing stuff she did with her powers. Might as well make the end of S01 like that instead of a new game just to explain a plot hole.
>>321547214
it is explained she gave info to david, i believe.
>>321549045
Nobody would have believed her and she had other stuff to do likedigging up Rachel's partially decomposed body
>>321549317
huh, I assumed time travel was its own timeline and that photo was the point of departure
>>321549665
She can prove it since she can actually do it. If she spend all that time thinging of a way to prove that she can time travel instead of dealing with teen drama... Holy fuck how can anyone believe somebody this retarded exists?
>I KNOW FOR A FACT THAT THERE WILL BE A TORNADO THAT DESTROYS AN ENTIRE CITY AND KILLS A TON OF PEOPLE
>I will now ignore that and look for this one person I don't even know that has been missing forever and is most probably dead.
>>321549838
the thing is, saving chloe is far from the only thing she changed until that point, and she changed even more stuff after letting chloe dies. Still, somehow it's "letting chloe die" that stops the tornado. It doesn't make sense.
>>321550219
Trying to get into Chloe's pants is way more important.
>>321548224

>>321551909

it's not much of a "choice", but you did change shit after chloe is dead. The teacher is arrested, as i explained, for example.
>>321536361
>shepard shuffle
>>321552761
Nope
Tornado is unavoidable because she changed tons of stuff
>>321553439
which means there is no point for the season. Actually, it makes the entire S01 pointless.
>>321553619
Season 2 is creating and surviving even more crazy stuff and as I already said fighting another time rewinder
>>321552878
Here's what I can't wrap my head around, what EXACTLY causes the tornado? Does it specifically hinge on whether or not Chloe is dead or alive, or does it occur if Max uses her rewind powers at all?
The game tries to push the whole destiny / butterfly effect theme, but Max can still go back and, for example, catch Jefferson before he goes and abducts more girls. Why doesn't THAT cause the tornado to happen? Does that not qualify as altering "fate"?
If the tornado comes just because Chloe is alive, then why is that the case? Why is her life so much more important than everyone else? And, even after Chloe is dead, couldn't Max still freely use her time powers?
Speaking of the tornado, that shit doesn't make any since either. How in fucks name would people not be able to see a tornado of that size forming days in advance and evacuate accordingly? Why the shit were people standing in the fucking street while it was ripping through town?
I could go on and on about this shitty game for hours, I swear to god
>>321553910
>How in fucks name would people not be able to see a tornado of that size forming days in advance and evacuate accordingly?
Maybe I'm missing some context since I haven't played this game but hurricanes are the ones that people see coming days in advance. A tornado can form in minutes and start wrecking shit.
>>321553879
>fighting another time rewinder
this is not a fighting game
>creating and surviving even more crazy stuff
all she have to do is Not use her powers anymore.
>>321554634
Doppler radars could easily detect a tornado of that size forming from oceanic winds days in advance.
Then again, the entire game revolves around magical time powers, so who the hell even knows
>>321555741
You can set tornado warnings in advance but you can't definitively say when a tornado is going to form until it happens.
>>321552679
Absolutely.

I can see how it's moving but it's also really stupid and predictable
