Okay lads. This developers cannot be consistent and I've heard that some labelization in these scenes HAD CHANGED again along with endings.Repeating this again: this is the 5th time they've changed things during in development;so some stuff were outdated cut stuff ... it never came to pass because it got changed during development and also the files were artifacts.
TRAILER is hella tricky. It may showed some glimpse parts of intense stuff but that's just not it.
So as my source confirmed either, Episode 3 will start at the Rachel's house (in order words will continue from where did it end) When Rachel went to upstairs angrily, you will have chance to talk with her family and get some informations. Then as you know, you will go upstairs and will inspect Rachel's room. When you interacted with her, you will make some heart-to-heart talk and Chloe will try to comfort her (at some point, whatever you said to Rachel earlier ''going LA,NY etc.) will be also mentioned while you were trying to comfort her. Rachel will want Chloe to stay and yes damn, they will fallasleep together, will cuddle in bed.
After you fell asleep dream sequence will take place. Of course heavy point will be focused on William's warning words and journal Max (she won't be in dream sequence unfortunately,they cut it) Chloe will wake up and we will have some heartwarming/adorable interact with Rachel again and you will talk with her. After some point, you will get chance to exchange clothes and can wear Rachel's one of clothes too or your own clothes. You can expect romantic;emotional scene in this section

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. >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 >So, once again we got the fact that our ending always will be BAE>Bay

***Hair dye scene is the most changed scenes in-game. While this was gonna happen in epilogue, devs took it more earlier. Anyway, this won't be the first time Chloe will get blue strands to her hair and Chloe will mention it. Developers also couldn't stay consistent again, and yes pals, heavy speculations point out that they will either do it in Chloe's house.
When we decided to go junkyard Chloe will get warning that Rachel is in trouble. Chloe will be obviously get worried as hell since something may happen to Rachel.
Aaand our famous Damon confrontation will happen right here.(Actually cut stuff was Rachel's not getting hurt here and Sera's stepping in, but during development this also got changed) As you can see from the trailer, Rachel will get knife'd by Damon. After it's too late ,Frank will pull him back and Chloe will take Rachel to the hospital in a rushed manner. She won't be in critical condition but Chloe will get scared shitless obviously.
Advice scene at Hospital Steph didn't got so changed there will be heart-warming conversation between her and Chloe, and she will help her to figure out Rachel and Chloe's love for each other. Damon still will be on Drew's ass so he will also get in trouble too though I told you that, trailer's tricky and showed you only glimpse of parts. But everyone forgot Damon's involvement with North brothers and they and Steph have more major role; more than you think.
Jackson Hill
The most changed scene finally got certain. While we were trying to gather money,got info cringy guy Eliot's confrontation's confrontation will be happen in Rachel's house.Actually no matter if you say ''No,maybe etc.'' to him -surely this will kinda alter dialogues yet, whatever you've read/done in his room actually will matter and unlock extra dialogues. Yes, Rachel will be with us while this was happenning and rescue us and yes this faggot always will show his creepiness. I also want to add, this kid is mentally fucked up; obsession/perversion/creepiness level in overdrive.
Ending choices' exoterical kinda changed, YET, main context still will be there to mainly testing Rachel and Chloe's bond (keeping Rachel to herself or letting her that ez) and obviously these ending choices will be connected with Sera. Expect some ''feels'' from Sera's part at this point; but bear in mind that Rachel will always come back to her Chloe. That 'vision' you saw is only part of it. Lots of people talking about whose drug is it, it's Sera's but actually it's related with someone's being kidnapt and flashback. I'm repeating this again: Sera isn't bad person as you think. The Mill yes, is related to him, and that blood in Frank's RV will surprise you all because the real confrontation will start at there and Chloe will be mostly unconscious and Rachel will be her guiding light. Yes, Raven is also symbolizing something about Sera;)

++About epilogue... In changed locations, they will most likely end the game at Chloe's house or famous lighthouse (believe or not, they seriously still considering it) while they were sitting alone and Rachel will be with her. With emotional conversation after what they had been through. At the ending they also will show glimpse parts of other characters' actions, how they ended up... -Max will also get mentioned by Chloe at some point
Now let's talk about hot/romance scenes again... For those who asked if we are gonna see kiss scene again at the endings: As we always told you, Chloe and Rachel's relationship won't get ruined no matter what. There are some few different variations depending on intimacy counter. In multiple endings and depending variations, there is also an emotional kiss between them right after that moment (if your intimacy again,romantic) because they will think they will get seperated at first. Also epilogue has HELLA lots of romantic dialogues between them. Even in a panic/intense moments you will see it.
Julian Phillips
Extra stuff about Episode 3 and why did they cut that part in dream sequence? :
As I told you before, that thing Max's physically appearence in dream sequencemay be or may not be released. They chose to cut it because their original intention was gonna either making her talk or either seeing her physically -which was they were gonna go with. Though, they found this unnecessary and kept that character's presence for future episode. Ah, but it's not like you won't feel that character's presence in nightmare still. You just don't see her physically and while talking.
+++
Let's put this as a reminder, keep an eye for this week -starting of Tuesday (most likely may be released on Thursday though,this can be change). They are preparing special video for the BtS finale; like sneak peek/demo video kind of thing.
As I told you while trailer was pointing out important things , some scenes are put there to confuse you and doesn't really evolve in the way as you think. They will use this one week to recover them; just as Dontnod did with ep4 trailer.
Isaiah Turner
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"
you got a vagina of your own and a photographer whose taken a fuck ton of selfies.

I saw it coming from a mile away. Those kind of telltale games can be easily released on IOS/Android, just like The Wolf Among Us and The walking Dead. but it's not really the platform that matters here, it's the fact that a new and proper release of the game would garner even more attention and hype from casuals. Just imagine the typical mobile '''''Gamer'''''' kiddie trying to appreciate the game properly on his fucking phone, that ain't fucking happening.

this game would be pretty comfy on my ipad desu

Don't worry, Max. A few days isn't that long. Plus it will feel really good to see Chloe again.

Thomas Bailey
Maybe by some miracle it won't change all that much. Not like the percentage matters towards anything.
Being Max is hard. You just want to protect your Chloe and be good friend but some sideline moralist keeps making you subject yourself to torture to benefit people you don't even know. All soy you can be miserable and they can upload a YouTube video of blog post about how sad/righteous they are.

Hitler, Brexit and trump were elected on the basis of choice
People are inherently dumb and immoral
Sadly compassion and empathy are the minority

>Hitler, Brexit and trump One of these things is a tad more extreme than the others.

Levi Morales
So you essentially call compassion killing 1000 people over one, so you get laid. The irony. Hitler did the same btw.
Sebastian Ward
He was voted for and at the time not seen as extreme
Personally I think all baefags should have someone close to them taken away by fate. Practice what your preach.
Matthew Nelson
Only the middle of those was a popular vote. The other two won due to other circumstances such as being given/seizing full power or winning the Electoral College. Sometimes, the majority desire doesn't apply to what is correct or at least exists as reality.
Cooper Myers
Magic storms don't exist in real life There will be no situation where I'll be responsible for such a Thing
The storm is Rachel's fault. Not maxes.
Not jumping in front of a bullet for someone doesent make me the shooter. The shooter is the shooter.

>it only counts when these thousands of people are stranger, so I don't give a fuck anyway. But if it was my family I'd still killed them, because I'm a desperate virgin and the girl I saved will have to guilt fuck me now kek.
Benjamin Richardson
More like I am mad at people who disregarded everything that has been said/implied in-game
Lincoln Sanders
I've seen people say Max killed more people than the Atomic Bomb because the storm "caused more damage." The level of things some will say without any evidence or rational thought hasn't surprised me for some time.
Jordan Carter
Chloe also doesn't exist in real life. So you can't blame Bayfags for killing her either.
Carter Jenkins
Maxs family was in Seattle
Kill a fictional character betrays a lack of empathy on their part
Samuel Collins
you just explained bayfags
not sure how it caused "atomic bomb" damage while houses, shitty buildings were still standing.
Anthony Thomas
>character says that she doesn't want to do it and shows her regret >bayfags choose it anyway to make her more suffer
William Gonzalez
So empathy only counts if it's Chloe. The rest of thousands of lifes killed don't count because...? You are autistic and virgin, so "empathy" only counts to you when you need something from someone.
Jonathan Fisher
>Chloe says she wants to sacrifice herself for the whole town to live >Baefags go against Chloe's character development.
Gabriel Lewis
Oh boy, I sure can't wait for new bayfags to swarm this general and start shitposting about morality.
Chase Hernandez
>>Chloe says she wants to sacrifice herself Not this excuse again, it's like you ignore all the dialogue and focus on this one line.
Angel Campbell
>thousands of lifes killed don't count because...? There's no way that many people were injured or killed by the storm and blaming any storm on Max is absurd.
Gavin Baker
>What Chloe meant there was there are many people in there who deserve to live "more than her" (technically she sees herself worthless") and was ready to take all responsibilty from Max. Also says she will be okay with whatever she choose because she trusts her more than anything >bayfags disregards it either and takes that emotional dialogue as "suicial" rather than being "heroic"
Kayden Cox
Spock was autistic and he said "the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few"
Bay is for autistic unfeeling people with no close relationships and only feel a wider connection to humanity at large because they cannot form close meaningful bonds.
The mindset of a school shooter and the killer of Chloe's is very much the same. Only morally inverted.
While real humans would never sacrifice their loved one for anything. Because they have emotional bonds and aren't unfeeling autists.
So you are the virgin and autistic. Because virgins don't form close bonds
While normal people do.
Now. If you want to go further. The true empathetic choice is SELF sacrifice. Not the sacrifice of an other. You are not moral for sending a lamb to slaughter.
If you want to be a real hero. Sacrifice yourself. Chloe and the town is saved.
The context of Spock not relevant. In real life a revival trope is not an option.
While the sacrifice bay and bae can be broken down into a real life moral dilemma equivalent
Levi Hall
this
Gavin Roberts
A self-sacrifice option is just as bad, if not worse, than the choices offered. What did Max do to deserve to die? There's little heroism in that, especially when it hurts everyone close to Max. It doesn't help anyone. Her parents, her friends, and how do you think Chloe reacts when she finds out that her fuckup killed Max AND that Rachel is dead? All it looks like is something even more tragic and that the universe decided to bully a random girl to death.
Carter Lewis
I want to kiss Vic's nose and protect her from bullies like Rachel
Connor Gutierrez
Chloe's sacrifice is nothing but murder. Her life is ended without her consent (of the present self she is in the bathroom) and is essentially murdered by the player
If Chloe had the time powers and was aware and actively chose her death then it would be more acceptable.
In the context Max is treated as a self insert. The player chooses to sacrifice themselves. Which is far more honourable than acting as a selfish executioner while preserving themselves
Jordan Cox
Way to completely miss the point and bring shipping wars into the discussion for no reason Guess that's why you guys are Legion
Christopher Garcia
>Bay is for autistic unfeeling people with no close relationships and only feel a wider connection to humanity at large because they cannot form close meaningful bond
Honestly user, you hit the bullseye on there.
Just check other communities and talk with people (not hater normies though) who chose bay. When you asked them why did they make this choice, their answer is simple :"Chloe needed to die, oh final destination example, and Chloe said she wanted to die at the end" When you try them to explain what happened with time-travel plot they don't accept it either.
Then... you are asking this; "What would you do if they were in Max's shoes, what would you do if your loved one was standing in front of you"... You can't get answer, they hesitate. Then they either say "I don't know, I have never had true intimacy with someone" and they are so hopeless about it. When you asked "Would you sacrifice yourself for both for your loved one's sake?" You still can't get exact answer.
So what you said is totally true.
Zachary Turner
>Bayfags are back
Jose Morales
If you're going to look at is morals and what's "right" then you may as well just pick Bay since you're not looking at it from the standpoint of the characters. Killing Max is just as dumb as killing Chloe. High chance it would end up killing both.
Jackson Gomez
no, we were just assuming. i mean if anyone wanted to see tragic-heroic ending then it would be that.
