ahhhhhhhhh

Happy Monday

...

I still haven't watched anything except the trailer

...

ACE REPORTER

Pamper that happy camper.

huh, what's up for debate here? Chloe is hella gay

Hug that little bug!

Kate is #1

I hate mondays

Kiss that... Yeah, just kiss.

Kiss that little miss!

No she isn't. Chloe is. That's why she's getting a prequel and Kate won't be in it.

any fics where it describes Max and Chloe's first time realistically?

Could have just told me last thread when I asked
but alright

99% of Kate's character is just her reacting to being bullied. You guys dont like Kate, you like the idea of being her white knight. You're going full Warren.

Right, that works!

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

that look

>You're going full Warren.

So is that a yes to Going Ape?

Stop being mean to Kate and Katefriends right now!

Let's be honest here. She doesn't really have a lot of character depth.

wtf I hate Kate now

Some people still think the "friendship / something more" determines Chloe's feelings, not how she chooses to express them and tbf hearing all the Square PR bullshit like "hurr durr durr, CHOICES! hurr AMBIGUITY hurru, YOU DECIDE!" it's easy to see they want both to appeal to the people who want teenage lesbian simulator and at the same time are trying to be as inoffensive to hetfags as possible.

A lot of people connected with her plotline about bullying, depression and suicide. It was especially prevalent in discussions after Ep2.
Sure maybe we don't get to know a lot about her or see her in many different contexts aside of her being bullied but people can still value what she represents as a character as opposed to going all Warren

I like super religious sad chicks tho

user, you're the one projecting and creating a strawman off of my two simple single-sentence posts. If I were to have wanted to be her white knight, I'd have stayed to defend Kate instead of leaving when you Kate haters invaded the general.

Kate has a lot more character than you think and you've just looked in all the wrong places. Kindness, gratefulness, making friends with the bullied (Alyssa etc), faith in God (even if it wavered during trying times).

I shall take my leave now and leave the general to its peace.

Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good; love one another with brotherly affection; outdo one another in showing honor.

You dont have any character depth!

>If I were to have wanted to be her white knight, I'd have stayed to defend Kate instead of leaving when you Kate haters invaded the general.

Kate is actually my third favorite character, I just wish she'd actually gotten character development instead of just being a sad bullied girl

Remember how before Ep2 every thread had "Kate is a lying slut" spam

As Max and Chloe are leaving the ruins of Arcadia Bay behind, there's one more tragic story unfolding
>Alice and Lisa stuck in Max's room, Alice hasn't eaten anything in days, the dorms are destroyed and no one comes looking for them
>"No one's gonna come save us, this is the end, we'll starve to death..."
>Alice...you can survive this and go back to your owner. All you have to do is... all you have to do is eat me."
>"What? No, fuck that. Lisa, you're my number one priority, I'm not eating you!"
>"Alice, think about it... how many times this week did you try to nibble my leafs? I'm a plant, Alice, you're a bunny, maybe it's time I accept my destiny... OUR destiny."
>"Lisa, I can't make this choice!"
>"No Alice, you're the only one who can"

>eat Lisa

Reminder that Warren went ape on Max in majority of everybody's playthroughs.

Warren died in the storm

They never went to the movies, it shouldn't be an option anyway.

there was no storm for 53% of players

but user a warrencuck once asked the imagination lord on twitter if Warren and Max would end up together after the Bay ending and he said that if you picked choices favoring warren in your playthrough then surely their relationship would go into that direction
So according to the imagination lord, it's possible they did end up in the drive in Bay

I want to MARRY Maxine Caulfield!

Go for it, Chlo'!

According to imagination lord nothing was changed because they ran out of money. Evrybody knows he lies

Max ending up with Warren is almost more depressing than Chloe dying. Good thing I never pick Bay.

there was a storm later

Max, never Maxine.

So I just beat this game last week for the first time, and I've been lurking here for a few days. I'm definitely on the Baefag side. But I've been thinking about how the final time-line ends up if you choose to "sacrifice the Bay". Max uses Warren's photo to jump to Thursday night before the party, she warns Chloe and they never go to the party, never go to the junkyard, don't get ambushed Chloe's not shot, Max doesn't end up in the Dark Room. Instead according to what Chloe said afterwards they just went to her mom's house and... what? Just sat around all Thursday night/Friday morning waiting for the storm? Sure they could have just spent the night having wild, uninhibited sex, but it seems like it would have been the perfect opportunity to WARN EVERYONE THEY KNOW ABOUT THE STORM.

Some people wouldn't believe them sure, but if Max told Warren to just get his family and anyone else he can and get them to leave town for the day, you know he'd do it. Same for Kate if you saved her. Or how about this, everyone you helped out or made friends with over the week could have some kind of point system where they're willing to believe Max or not based on what you did. If you saved Vanessa from getting hit or helped Brook hook up with Warren or was sympathetic about Taylor's mom and so on they trust her.

Look at that, I just came up with a way they could have put in more than two endings AND made all the choices you made throughout the game ACTUALLY FUCKING MATTER. Imagine that.

Literally best girl of all time, another user had a point, id rather have her happy for ever with chloe than with an user like me. But i cant help admit Max is dating and wife material.

...

>Max asks you for a dance

How do you react?

Could be 'Neill', but that's a bit of a weird way to spell it.
Alternatively, the second name could be 'Evan' and the first could be a female name

Tell her I'm not Chloe

Max would be too shy to do that

You have permanently unlocked Pricefield to be featured on your Steam account already, haven't you?

I wish

No FeelsBadMan

>Sacrifice /lisg/
>Sacrifice your girlfriend/boyfriend

Which one do you pick?

I don't have a girlfriend

>anyone on /lisg/
>having a girlfriend/boyfriend
pls

IF YOU DID.

USE YOUR IMAGINATION:)

>sacrifice random strangers or someone who means the world to you
I bet a bayfag is behind this

>Pricefield
The worst ship reddit has ever made.
Max isn't lesbian.

Ha.

Please start using a trip so I can easily filter your idiotic posts. Thanks

Max is bi but its clear she feel in love with chloe.

>You will never snuggle in bed with best girl
>You will never tell her how much you love her
>You will never raise kids with her
>You will never see her smile

The truth hurts

user please dont do this to me.
I made similar post on last thread,

waifufags, go away

Mari leave now!

>I seriously hope you don't kill me.

You fucking revolving pieces of shit.

Just fucking kill yourselves, retarded waifufags. I hope you both get stalked, and raped.

We are here to stay,
Although we loved max and played it for mostly her there is no denying she loved Chloe, as an other user stated before id rather have her happy with Chloe than with random user like myself. Im allowed to think max is best girl while still knowing her heart belongs to Chloe.

Reminder that waifufags are not allowed.

...

That attitude towards her, of "best girl", and "dating material" is absolutely emotionally barren, and retarded. It doesn't matter if you're accepting of her ultimate relationship with Chloe, you've clearly objectified the character, and reduced the duality with Chloe that Max exists within.

I truly hope you kill yourself, you worthless cunt.

>being this triggered by a waifufag

your autism is really acting up today huh?

Waifufags are like fangirls who play the game for their "small bean" Nathan, or Warren.

They aren't sympathetic; they're enraging, disgusting, and hilarious.

I'm not late, you're late!

BFFs, Pirates, Wonder Twins, Partners in Time & Crime & Love, Fellow Dorks, GFs, Wives.
OTP.
youtube.com/watch?v=rhvZxmgLfNA

You waifufags are like a cancer, that if you let alone, will spread in its revisionist pollution, and slowly normalize itself.

You insult these characters.

>muh autism lol triggered??

Pathetic.

Wouldnt be surprised if this turnt into a /utg/ thread on /mlp/. It just proves waifufags will exist in any and all generals

You're late

Hey /lisg/. I finished this game for the first time a couple days ago. The game was pretty good. Even days after finishing, I come here to read shit about the endings. I don't know but I feel as if my desires haven't been sated by the game and I continually want to know more. It's been a couple days and I am still getting a lingering feelings to come here and read.

Tell me, does it stop?

If you're a guy and played the game and didnt end up having feelings for max or chloe by the end of it there is probably something wrong with you.
By your le epic triggering I think that confirms it anyways.

The MLP characters are literally two dimensional, idealized children's characters. They don't lose anything by being waifued. It's post-irony material akin to contemporary cartoons like Adventure Time.

LiS characters really do.

N-no. You're late!
I'm going to rewind time and be first!

I finished the game a month ago. It doesnt stop, but it gets slightly better I guess.

A character literally loses nothing because a person that doesnt even occupy the same reality as them is in love with them.

>what are gay men
>what are lesbians

I didn't have feelings for them, because I appreciated them in an artistic manner, as they should be appreciated. Having feelings for characters is not comparable to pure, revolting waifuing, however.

I don't even care about the waifu faggotry shit, I just feel like the game had an impact on me and I want to understand more.

But lewd Max and Chloe dont lose anything and the characters being sexually objected is okay but waifufaging isnt? actually making me think.

You dense motherfucker.

>does it stop?
Goodness, no.
Why do you think this place has existed for so long? Love of Pricefield and disdain for the endings. Which turned out to be a big blessing in disguise and allowed us to continue to this point.
Anyway, best thing to do is discuss stuff here and read lots a fics (Check the recs sections in the OP). Even though I haven't seen any really good post-storm fics yet. Mostly fix-it ones where Max does as many people wanted her to do and find a third option (But that's not her fault, that's the writers who dumbed her down for the finale)

Oh and headpats and hair ruffles!

What are you talking about?

>art deceptions of chloe and Max having sex where nudity is shown in a pornographic way.
Ah yes everything is okay with this
>Someone saying Max is their ideal girl
WOW WTF OBJECTIFICATION YOU'RE DISGUSTING.

Not to say the lewdness of Max and Chloe potential love making is pornographic and cant be shown because it can if done right but if you dont call out stuff like that which ive seen on threads already but call out waifufags its a bit of a hypocrite thing to do.
