Kate and Vic will adopt the Marsh sisters after Kate's mom and dad prove to be too intolerant. Thanks Obama.

Kate's dad is pretty cool and I think her mother would come around to being more accepting eventually

>Chloe is not one to mince words ... But "mincing words" is pretty much exactly the phrase that would define how she characterised her "relationship" with Rachel. We get lots of "she saved me", "she was my angel", etc, but not only does she never mention any specific mutual girlfriend type relationship status between the two, she also never explicitly states that she was "in love" with her either. If we were going to argue that Chloe didn't "mince words", surely we should expect her to have been much more direct in describing exactly how she felt about Rachel to Max?
I don't think any of this helps BtS though, given how totally direct it was about the two girls being in a mutual relationship. Not only should Chloe have no real reason to avoid mentioning this stuff to Max (even if, say, that aspect of the relationship soured over time), but given that people around town were already picking up on the Rachel/Chloe pairing after only a few days (if that!), it should have been open public knowledge.

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
Nicholas Wood
Chloe and Rachel do heroin together and they both get darkroomed together
Max returns to Arcadia bay and is horrified to see that Chloe is missing, unaware and unable to investigate she is eventually snatched by Jefferson
The process upsets her just as much as it did Kate, she commits suicide by jumping off the lighthouse cliff.
Their deaths are never solved and jefferson soon gets bored and moves to another location

The thing is, legionfags have nothing more to look forward to about Rachel after BtS. And as you can see D9 will be focusing on Max and Chloe in the future, so the only way for them to stay on this general is by baiting and shitposting. They're not even looking for discussion or anything relevant to the game at this point.

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"
> THOSE VERY POINT that you just parroted for the Nth time already have been addressed and refuted just as many times where the hell did you refute my point? i'm telling you whatever happened in both games? retcon or not.. i already admitted that BtS changed stuff and gave some certain dates on it. why should we disregard them while they represented them in PREQUEL

William Martin
Dude, we replied that post like all the fucking time yet you are still quoting that shit as if it has a valid point. Seems like you still don't understand what are we trying to say.
We are not disregarding that BtS changed some stuff by using opportunities from Dontnod's lossening story telling. Because Dontnod didn't pay attention to those dates that much and to their original files, they planned to make Rachel and Chloe meet in 2011 hence why also expulsion was happenning on 2011 on that sheet. With prequel, they needed to get time and make that game one year prior. Technically by setting that game on 2010 they had to change some tiny stuff. They revised some stuff which was related with Chloe's life:
-William's death date: they legitimated it with BtS and gave certain date -Rachel and Chloe's meet date -> Happened in 2010 in BtS, so expulsion came at this year (to dontnod it was gonna be on 2011) -Justin's knowing her since 2010, not only via Rachel nor blue hair. -Joyce and David's marriage: they had to fix this legitimated that this happened later because Chloe and Rachel had just met at that time (since they took events game one year prior) -Chloe's dyeing her hair FOR THE FIRST TIME - they also legitimated this date on BtS (some anons are argued that it's not the first time she didn't dye her hair, but when you read journal and even looked at her mom's reaction IT WAS THE FIRST TIME) -Deck9 gave Rachel's parents names, let us discovered them while in Rachel's file none of them got mentioned nor got certain name -Dontnod tried to fix Rachel and Victoria's school file like many times with updates. With Deck9 they revised them and legitimated that Victoria was there on 2010 and Warren's age also got fixed.
The other rest are same not disregarded from S1. Both games are canon, but when it comes to those stuff in above YES THEY CHANGED IT AND YOU HAVE TO RELY ON THEM.
Alexander Baker
will based MadCadDad make his return to the general? Even Hannah liked him.
Juan Wright
And yet Chloe still loved her more than anything and would have taken her back in an instant.
Chase Jones
pretty sad tbqhwy
Dylan Hall
Reminder that Victoria exists to be bullied and/or murdered.
Blake Sanders
There are other stuff which is open to critism too, because DeckNine added these by themselves while these weren't even Dontnod's intentions in the first place: >Chloe's defending/involving with any confrontation with Nathan (and Drew), so technically Nathan and Chloe know each other from school and it wasn't only the ''everybody knows rich kid'' bullshit >Frank's being even more softer during their hangouts and even had a conversation about his dog. We also know from the first game that they'd been hanging out with Chloe for many occasitations; like drug-buying etc. so there's no way she could forget Frank's dog's name or any other else. Which makes The Beach scene in S1EP04 more stranger.
But just because they changed or added more depth to things, it doesn't mean we should disregard them because these are happened in prequel.
I guess this is where people misunderstanding you. They act like as if you said ''disregard all S1 and focus on BtS'' no, that's not even the point of the argument. There were some certain stuff that you labeled in above got fixed in BtS and we are defending the fact that we only should rely on them since those were represented in prequel. The rest are same. Rachel will still make mistakes in future, David will still be on bad terms with Chloe no matter what.
Ayden Williams
i never liked victoria that much but this is uncalled for
Jackson Evans
I can't argue but it also is kinda beautiful to think that the cold punk girl who hates everyond we met in S1 could have loved another human being that much.
Dylan Hughes
but that's the OPPOSITE of Victoria's existence.
Henry Price
It literally is all she's for, though. The only meaningful interactions with Victoria involve her getting coated in paint, and watching her cry before her death. And in the prequel she gets btfo twice by Chloe and Rachel.
Gabriel Martin
That awkward moment when I thought your webm was going to be an awful joke ... but wasn't ... so I had to go make the joke version myself.
Isaac Walker
>And in the prequel she gets btfo twice by Chloe and Rachel That's because Zak the hack used her as a comedic relief character with no purpose and she shouldn't even exist in this prequel.
Angel Nguyen
>You were missed, Rachel. It was Chloe who never fully recovered. It was she who some how knew you best... and like you, she never forgot that one night where true love seemed possible...
Austin Jenkins
You can't say he didn't make good use out of her. She doesn't have any depth or likability. A comic relief character was the perfect role for her.
Logan Smith

Because they never planned to make a prequel, there was no need to exand upon this. >... Again, IF BtS's ALTERATION OF DETAILS, or as you seem to rather call it "fixing", ""legitimating"", or """""""adding depth""""""", DIRECTLY CONTRADICTS THOSE DETAILS' COUNTERPARTS FROM LIS, THEN LIS VERSION TAKES PRECEDENCE. If, however, they do not, like with Rachel's parents, then it's okay to concider them canon. Simple as that. And it applies to each and every change, regardless of how "tiny" it is.
Zachary Rivera
this. the only things BtS legitimated&fixed or gave certain date were: >>William's death date: they legitimated it with BtS and gave certain date >>Rachel and Chloe's meet date -> Happened in 2010 in BtS, so expulsion came at this year (to dontnod it was gonna be on 2011) >>Justin's knowing her since 2010, not only via Rachel nor blue hair. >>Joyce and David's marriage: they had to fix this legitimated that this happened later because Chloe and Rachel had just met at that time (since they took events game one year prior) >>Chloe's dyeing her hair FOR THE FIRST TIME - they also legitimated this date on BtS (some anons are argued that it's not the first time she didn't dye her hair, but when you read journal and even looked at her mom's reaction IT WAS THE FIRST TIME) >>Deck9 gave Rachel's parents names, let us discovered them while in Rachel's file none of them got mentioned nor got certain name >>Dontnod tried to fix Rachel and Victoria's school file like many times with updates. With Deck9 they revised them and legitimated that Victoria was there on 2010 and Warren's age also got fixed.
these were creating some inconsistencies towards first game. but so fucking what? how can you disregard them while they were represented in canon? you can't say neither of games were canon while SE made them do it.
other than these, everything was same. Chloe will have feelings for Rachel yet Rachel will make mistakes and to not hurt her will hide her relationships, she will become like her mom (drug addict)... David and Chloe will despise each other etc. etc. nobody is saying that FUTURE will be changed. but some character informations got changed (if needed be they also added new characters,expanded Rachel's story) and there is nothing you can do about it. it's canon as much as S1 is.
Carson Martinez
Holy fucking kek
Jose Cooper
Do you want me to use the word ''retcon''? That was the whole point were you trying to give?
Call it however you want man.Legimating,fixing,changing,retconning,hambooning what the fuck ever.
But the fucking point is in there that, they changed stuff and we shouldn't disregard those stuff that they touched. You can't disregard prequel and the things they presented to you. If prequel wasn't exist then we could've relied on Dontnod's date about Chloe's expulsion,Victoria's age,Rachel and Chloe's meet date(which they kept ambigious though), but after prequel -where they dug in more details- everything was more fleshed out; they added some inconsistencies either but at least you know when did they meet and if some characters were exist and they changed stuff. My whole point was this.

Why did Chloe have to love her so much?
Anthony Garcia
You sound like a massively insecure 13 year old faggot who found Veeky Forums for the first time this morning, ironically tries to get involved with every conversation he doesn't know shit about.
Nobody denies the fact that BtS had contradicted those stuff user labeled in here . But at the end of the day, they've given permission to do it 1)SE had Dontnod's IP.. 2)Dontnod also aware of those [...] and they fixed them or either changed those stuff overall since Dontnod didn't pay attention that much because you are saying it yourself ''they never planned to make prequel for this series, this was the something they decided to do it later''
If prequel represented them then you have to trust those 7 +2 informations at this point. Because that's ''prequel'' and focuses on the past *fully* more than Dontnod's game did. So about past, of fucking course Prequel had more accurate evidences for Chloe's-Rachel's reunion,expulsion date yadda yadda because that's what the game focuses on.
Gavin Stewart
>>You can't disregard prequel and the things they presented to you >''If it contradicts LiS, then we definitely should and we definitely can'' See? Now you are telling me that prequel/its informations aren't canon.
And who are you to say this while game company who owns game developers' IPs also made this game and called it as ''prequel'' ?
John Jackson

Jacob Rodriguez
>If Prequel contradicts LiS, then we can definitely disregard it this is why arguing with you is just pointless. what's hard to understand they with prequel they ironed things out and put some stuff to their places that Dontnod kept either ambigious/either messed up/didn't pay attention in their games.
by changing expulsion date,dyeing her hair etc etc the whole story didn't got changed afterall. those were minor stuff that dontnod never been that certain about or made a big deal. it's not even like they disregarded all S1 events, which had been shown at BtS's ending.
Oliver Barnes
You still couldn't refute anything he said, retard. All you are doing is keep repeating ''LMAO BTS ISN'T CANON'' but it is. Even if it changes some minor stuff, it fucking is. Developers calling it as prequel so you can't disregard it, if you do, then you only delude yourself. Feel free to do it.
Robert Sanchez
>the information that contradicts LiS? yes. You can't disregard it, its informations and BtS is there to explain background info voids on Season 1. BtS is canon, some changes are canon.. and Season 1 also canon (its background infos fixed with BtS) End of the word.
Robert Cruz
>The only meaningful interactions with Victoria involve her getting coated in paint, and watching her cry before her death. I'd argue there's more to Victoria's character, but it's not something that's really made clear through direct interactions.
The thing is, Max and Victoria are much more similar than either would care to admit, with the big differences being about how they've chosen to present themselves. Look at Victoria's writing in her notebook in Episode 5 (pic related), it's full of a lot of the same concerns (I suck, me/my art isn't as good as that other persons, get over yourself) that Max also expresses internally throughout the game. Similarly, Max calls herself out for acting like Victoria/Courtney/Taylor at times. They both admit to admiring each other in various ways, they both share a lot of the same interests, they both have a nerdy side (eg. Victoria's anime action figure). The difference is that Victoria wears her insecurities on her sleeve and acts much more outwardly, while Max turns her own inward. The two characters aren't directly analogous of course, but when you look past a lot of Victoria's bullshit you notice a lot of Max in her character.
This sort of thing is highlighted extra well in the alternate timeline, where Max's attitude is flipped in such a way that she "becomes" a Victoria type character. Victoria doesn't become a Max-like wall flower (the changes in the timeline obviously didn't affect Victoria as much as Max), but it's still a nice little comparison.
