Because the "why isn't Max in school?" question always comes up this episode, I figure it can't hurt to explain... Max had English with Mrs. Hoida that morning but Mrs. Hoida is out on an extended absence. It's kind of a hidden fact, but you can find Max's schedule in her room. So, she doesn't have to be at school until later in the day, around the time Chloe drops her off. It all works out.
"Don't forget to be nice to David, he did a war once." -Joyce Sorry to comment so late, I've been rolling my eyes for 4 years about how much slack we cut this man.
It's definitely interesting how BtS is changing players' perceptions of Max. I for one still adore her, though. She's not perfect, and she never was. She's selfish, she's manipulative, she's constantly lost in her own head and doesn't engage with the world, and she colors a lot of what happens day to day with a woe-is-me sort of attitude even as she creates a lot of her own problems. But that's her flaw. She hasn't had that traumatic event in her life that causes her to grow up, the way Chloe was forced to do when she lost her dad and Max. Max is really still just a sheltered kid. But what this game is ultimately about is that trauma. Losing Chloe (or the threat of losing her) is what finally causes Max to put someone else's well-being ahead of her own and to become, by the end of the game, a much better person. So, does Max kind of suck? Yep. But you gotta kinda suck before you can grow up. tl;dr: Max sucks, but I love her anyway. Pricefield fo life (Rachel can watch).
pbnjpeg I think people are being a little hypocritical when they judge her as well. I mean, sure she’s manipulative, but when you have the power to rewind time...who wouldn’t be? Idk I guess I just relate to her introverted personality, but then again I still haven’t had the chance to play BTS (Ik I suck). Who knows, maybe I’ll love her less as well after I play it, but as of rn she’s my fav.
BtS changes the way you see a lot of the first game, and being in Chloe's head makes it hard to not feel her anger at Max leaving and basically cutting off all contact. But no situation is as simple as it seems. As an introverted 13-year-old, moving away from the only home you've ever known can be traumatic in and of itself. We all see how helpless Max is around other people at age 18. Just imagine her at 13 trying to fit in in Seattle. We know from the first game that she never really made any new friends there and didn't ever really enjoy it. I have to assume she wanted to be there for Chloe, but Max was also living through what was likely the most massive upheaval of her (admittedly sheltered) life so far. Chloe's situation was worse. I'm not saying it wasn't. But I also fully realize that I can't be upset at a 13-year-old for not acting like a responsible adult and putting a friend's well-being ahead of their own. Put 13-year-old me in the same position, and I would have done the exact same thing. Chloe is also not blameless, as part of the situation was her translating her own grief into anger at Max (and her dad, her mom, and everyone else). She even tells Max near the end of episode 3 that she's "gotta blame somebody, otherwise it's all [her] fault." One of her coping mechanisms is to translate her grief into anger, because she would rather feel angry than sad. (Damn this game makes me wall-of-text all over the internet. Every short comment I try to write turns into an essay. Oh well.) P.S. You should totally play BtS, btw. It's so, so good. Just be sure to get the deluxe edition for the chance to see Chloe and Max being pirates in the bonus episode that's coming out early 2018.
pbnjpeg Lol I totally get your passion for the game. It’s nice to see a community get so involved in the characters and the world of the game. I could totally discuss LiS all day, it’s influenced my personality A LOT. Going back to your OP, it’s kinda sad to see this new wave of hate for Max; painting her as some kind of puppet master. I mean, if I had the power to control time, I would sure as hell be nosy. I also kinda feel like her manipulative nature is kinda necessitated by the gameplay, and players totally have the choice to not be manipulative at all. I am definitely going to play BTS once the farewell episodes out, so I can binge play it all in one sitting. Sad to see these characters go, almost don’t want there to be a season 2 just because of how in love I am with this setting and characters...
nah. Still don't like Max. She's absolutely not a person I would hang out with, but that's not the reason. There is also a lot less chemustry between Max and Chloe than between Rachel and Chloe
@@Mr._Du Right. That's why its shocking to me when people blame Chloe and call her a terrible friend when in reality max was. Chloe had every right to bring up max leaving her and being upset about it. Max left Chloe the day of her dads funeral and ignored her after swearing she would keep in touch. Chloe had to grieve her dad alone. Which is also why Chloe blames max when she's upset because yes COPING MECHANISM. Chloe definitely developed abandonment issues. And to top it all off Rachel then goes missing. Chloe literally can never catch a break.
For the phone background thing, you have to do at least three out of the following: 1. Take the blame for the pot 2. Don't answer Kate's call 3. Choose to shoot Frank 4. Steal the money from Wells
I'm going to add to all the positive comments and say how much I'm enjoying this Let's Play. It's great when you both obviously love the game and know it backwards (Aoife).
I have played this game way tooo much, but I still love seeing Aoife and Johnny going through it. One of the most wonderful let's plays I have seen in a while! And yes I agree with you, down with Warren!
I dont have the time or energy to play this game in addition to all the other ones I need to get through, I'm really glad you two are playing through these games. You do a great job.
The most affecting thing for me was Kate killing herself on my first play, when I thought I'd talked her down, and even on subsequent plays where I did save her, my main memory is of her suicide. I'll never get rid of that feeling. I can't think of another game death that has stayed with me like that, where even when I save the character, my overall attitude is of their being dead.
I've played twice and I was an absolute wreck by the end both times. I can't imagine what it would be like to not be able to save Kate.. I think I'm gonna be sick
Best breakfast I recall was wandering through the Glasonbury festival at 7:30 in the morning and finding a stall that served chocolate banana crepes with Courvoiser and freshly made arabica coffee. Ambrosia...
When playing in the life is strange world, you two are just so awesome!! Your opinions on everything (Max, Warren...) are ON POINT!! I've watched so many playthroughs of LIS and you two are probably my favs now!
Fermat's last theorem, probably with a proof attempt in the corner of the table, is hilarious! Maybe it just says that there's not enough room on the table for a full proof.
this game actually feels a bit dated to me now that I've played before the storm. deck nine did a better job with some of the dialogue and facial animations.
Even with the animation imperfections, they still managed to create a masterpiece. With this genre, it's all about story and characters. Bells and whistles are nice, but I'll take a great story any day.
I totally understand Chloe and Rachel in a relationship but NOT Chloe and Max. Sometimes feels like people just go for it because they dislike Warren so much.
I was just thinking the same thing, now that BTS is out and we know how Chloe and Rachel's relationship really is, you can clearly see that between Max and Chloe there's nothing romantic, at least from my point of view
I know this comment is super late but I'm pretty sure Chloes boots are her dads boots and to be honest I think she would have rather died than watch them get destroyed, thats always my theory with why she didn't just take off her boot to escape the train tracks.
Steak and eggs are available as breakfast food, but not only have I never had it, I don't know ANYONE who does. I've seen it ordered at diners with 24 hour breakfast for dinner, though. Still pissed we don't know - How IS Annie?
I've just completed Life Is Strange recently and loved it. The collection of the bottles in this episode annoyed me and is one of the few things that annoyed me about the game. I couldn't save Kate in my playthrough and it absolutely tore me up as there were opportunities to save her - the placing of the candles at the shrine made me shed a small tear. With Warren, I sat on the fence to begin with but towards the end of the episode I grew to dislike him as I saw him to be creepy with all the Ape, Ape, ape references. The bit that did pique my interest in this episode is when I saw Mr Jefferson's black car for the first time - I don't know if anyone else thought this when they played through the game but as soon as I saw his car I was filled with the sense that something ominous was about to happen at some point with regards to Mr. Jefferson in the rest of the game.
Here for the Warren hating! So Did we ever figure out who was on the phone to Mr Jefferson? You could of saved yourself hassle with the party later in this bit, if you manipulate it with Courtney you can get her to add you to the guest list and you don't have to mess about with all the other stuff to get in.
Eurogamer Ahhh I see, since Nathan is in the class would make sense if it was his father then. Did always wonder how much of what Nathan does his father really knew about.
@@littlefurnace that's something that makes me feel bad about this really because I know I could do the same thing! Like sometimes I won't message someone for a month or two and just completely forget. Then if you don't for a while it gets harder to start something up again. Like after Max hadn't messaged for years that would be incredibly hard to make contact again, especially not knowing how happy Chloe would be for it.
@@jaidenoliver7165 Exactly! I'm definitely guilty of the same thing now as an adult, so when i was a *teenager*?! Forget it. I love EG but i think these two were pretty harsh about that particular situation.
I only just finished this game (played the remaster) with no prior knowledge I was nice to Warren and he was an absolute sweetheart and super nice. Curious to see what happens when you dislike him from the get go 😜
I really don't get the hate for Warren. Max does lead him on a good bit. Chloe is an awful person. Yes she's gone through a lot but she is horrible to David. He isn't perfect but he doesn't deserve her shite. She pushes him. It's amazing how depending on how we play we see characters differently.
So good these lp's. I feel a little sad though when I see you guys failing to give Max the benefit of the doubt on her feelings about how she treated Chloe. Her dialogue seems like it could be simple regret, disappointment with herself rather than with finding out that Chloe and Rachel were so close in her absence.
For as much as he talks about loving science and the weather and shit you’d really think Warren’s would know better than to look directly at a fucking eclipse.
Gee Johnny, I thought you would have said "My name is Warren and I'm here to say.. I'm the lamest asshole in Arcadia Bay...". A little more catchy I would have thought. Great play through though.
So...I can see why maybe it wasn't weird when Max warned Alyssa about the football in the first episode (they were tossing the ball near her, odds were good she might get beaned), but...how in the *fuck* could she possibly have known (from Alyssa's point of view) that she needed to sidestep a roll of toilet paper at that EXACT MOMENT in the hallway? EDIT: "WHYHELLOAGAINALYSSA..." *MUHAHAHAHA* D: EDIT(2): Why does Alyssa have a mouthful of marbles?
Making Max go through people's stuff WHILE THEY'RE RIGHT THERE is *never* not uncomfortable. (Though, +1 for video game immersion, I suppose, if it makes me feel that way.)
I *seriously* did not notice how much everyone was pushing Warren on Max my first playthrough. (Then again, I didn't notice the degree to which everyone was a douche to Max my first playthrough, either.) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
35:50 Honestly - using her "evil" manipulation power for good? AWESOME and fun: *pry* into those bitches' lives and use it to make 'em open up to you, Max. ;) (*I* never talked to Taylor in my playthrough, either; good show, Aoife.)
So...I never noticed before (41:00): how is it that the homeless "Lottery Ticket" guy *sounds* like Ving Rhames, but *looks* like Harry Dean Stanton? BONUS: WHAT DOES MARCELLUS WALLACE LOOK LIKE? :D ruclips.net/video/aopg7JqbgMo/видео.html
I did not play the game myself, and have no intention to. I am getting Kingdom Hearts flashbacks though, with Square Enix and superpowered teenagers. Also, everything I need to know about Max is right there @4:39. Quoting Lord of the Rings out of context. Fuck you Max! All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes, a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king. Don't try and win back points with a Bradbury reference after that!
If you're talking about Chloe's debt to Frank, its not the same debt. The $175 is how much free weed Frank has been giving her while the $5000 was borrowed to fix her truck so she can leave with Rachel.
Keep destroying Warren. You're valid. He's the worst. Oh man. Coming back to this, I have no idea why I ever liked Max at all. But the Rachel stuff has a lot more impact this time around, which is nice. Overall I'm glad it's you replaying it and not me. Also means I'm getting your quality commentary. This is a win/win situation.
I had the same reaction. Max kinda... sucks? She's manipulative, nosy, and kinda judgemental. Also much more sympathetic to Chloe being annoyed with Max for the phone thing post-Before the Storm.
SpydersByte Warren creeps out some people, there's one point in the game (i forgot when), when you can see Warren secretly peering into Max's room from the outside. Check here to see more reasons why Warren is a creep/stalker: steamcommunity.com/app/319630/discussions/0/537402115094938779/
I dunno, to me, the Rachel / Chloe relationship has its own implications. Like, Rachel is really appealing to Chloe's rebellish side to get her to help her. The only time Chloe really gets anything out of their relationship is when she specifically has to ask / gets asked for it at the end of BtS Ep2. And supporting that seems to be that Chloe's Ghost Dad seems to warn her about Rachel. "You're so drawn to it, you don't even realize the danger. [...] Fire is jealous, Chloe. It wants all the beauty for itself. That's why you need to be careful." It makes me think that it's a pretty one-sided relationship and that even present-day Chloe never really realized that. I mean, we never know what would've happened if Chloe and Rachel actually managed to runaway together to see this go to it's conclusion.
Geminias i mean, in LiS Frank says that him and Rachel had a thing, so she would have been cheating on Chloe. (If I remember all of that correctly, it's been a while)
Madness1 I understand where you're coming from, but does Max owe it to Warren to date him now? Warren could use his sweats and tears to reach the moon for Max and I still don't think Max OWES him a date or to be his gf when its clear she doesnt like him that way.
I said they could go out, not date. Guys and girls can go to the same place and do stuff together, without dating, you know. Hell, drone girl can have him.
Madness1 I get what you mean but its very clear Warren wants more than just friendship, so wouldn't Max be leading him on if she were to go out with him? Yeah, if Warren likes Brooke in the future, I think they fit each other better
Well if they kill Chloe...which to be honest is the right choice...Max will need some Doctor Love! Because somehow I don't think Victoria is going to put out for Max.
Y’all are too hard on the kids lol. Max isn’t that bad, she is sweet and caring plus anybody would be a least somewhat manipulative if they could rewind time.. and Warren may be.. many things, but he’s a nice kid. Also you love Rachel and she IS manipulative and impulsive and has a tendency for playing games. I love you guys though 👍
Just wanna ask although it's a very long time now, why do you hate Warren so much? He's been helpful to Max everytime and he's not even mean to anyone. I personally think that he's cute and lovable with his attitude, but how come you guys hate him? You always whine and tell warren to piss off whenever he's around
This is a really late comment, but I think a lot of it is around him seeming to try and force more of a relationship. Like Max doesn't seem to be particularly interested in Warren as anything more than a friend (though you can kinda make choices around that) and I guess it can just be annoying/frustrating having someone always trying to hug you, hang out, do anything you want or defend you. Like when he defends or helps Max sometimes it feels like he's mainly doing it because he wants to get something out of it, like another point in the Max/Warren relationship jar.
Because the "why isn't Max in school?" question always comes up this episode, I figure it can't hurt to explain... Max had English with Mrs. Hoida that morning but Mrs. Hoida is out on an extended absence. It's kind of a hidden fact, but you can find Max's schedule in her room. So, she doesn't have to be at school until later in the day, around the time Chloe drops her off. It all works out.

Sorry to comment so late, I've been rolling my eyes for 4 years about how much slack we cut this man.
Warren told Max about the totem pole because he wants Tobanga
HEYOOOOO
Thanks Eurogamer. Only just watching this playthrough, but liking it so far 🙂
I realize I am kind of randomly asking but do anyone know a good site to watch newly released series online ?
@Uriel Jeffrey I use Flixzone. You can find it by googling =)
@Uriel Jeffrey i would suggest FlixZone. You can find it on google =)
That Rachel folder always gets me at the end :(
Same! Especially when you got to know her in the other game!
“2007 called, wants its vernacular back” best comment in any let’s play, ever, the timing, the pace, the delivery, just gold
It's definitely interesting how BtS is changing players' perceptions of Max. I for one still adore her, though.

I recently discovered your channel and I must say i love your gameplays so much. Plus you two are just made for each other :)
Aww, I love watching you guys play together. 😘
lol who disliked this already.. some people need to re-evaluate their life choices.
Gonna be *that* guy. The Doe is Rachel, the game directors confirm it in the directors commentary.
While in the dreams/ alternate realities on both games, check your SMS and journal for "slight differences"
Totally agree on the warren thing with them!
What a great surprise on a Monday morning! I'm so glad you guys are revisiting this. I was wondering how BtS would change my perspective as well.
Aoife's description of Ariana Grande is just the best 😂
The most affecting thing for me was Kate killing herself on my first play, when I thought I'd talked her down, and even on subsequent plays where I did save her, my main memory is of her suicide.

I think they are his boots. Like in BTS we see Chloe get some of his clothes. I think she probably always wears something of her dad's

"going ape" is a euphemism for wanting to bang in his car lmfao.
The other day in class I draw a deer on a whiteboard and wrote “oh Deer, it’s Rachel” then held it up to show somebody and my teacher saw it.
When is the next episode gonna come out?
wait, theyre playing the game WHILE theyre playing the sequel!?!?
Well they've both played the game, they're just going back through it to appreciate all the stuff they wouldn't have the first time
johnny's reaction when max talks to the weird lady
Here for the Warren hating!
So Did we ever figure out who was on the phone to Mr Jefferson?

lmao the breakfast club reference, yesss
I really don't get the hate for Warren. Max does lead him on a good bit. Chloe is an awful person. Yes she's gone through a lot but she is horrible to David. He isn't perfect but he doesn't deserve her shite. She pushes him. It's amazing how depending on how we play we see characters differently.
So good these lp's. I feel a little sad though when I see you guys failing to give Max the benefit of the doubt on her feelings about how she treated Chloe. Her dialogue seems like it could be simple regret, disappointment with herself rather than with finding out that Chloe and Rachel were so close in her absence.
I remember playing this in parallel with Dreamfall chapters, when it was originally released
For as much as he talks about loving science and the weather and shit you’d really think Warren’s would know better than to look directly at a fucking eclipse.
Gee Johnny, I thought you would have said "My name is Warren and I'm here to say.. I'm the lamest asshole in Arcadia Bay...". A little more catchy I would have thought. Great play through though.
brooke is so mean at that moment
Bae over bay every time hate the mindset of you got to sacrifice chloe
They're in high school, not uni, so yellow school buses are still a thing.
I'm surprised they messed up with Warren so bad. Wow they really hate him that much.
Poor Warren xD
I love Chloe Price she awesome and I know feelings for friends betrayed,some of my close Friends that that never hang out with
So...I can see why maybe it wasn't weird when Max warned Alyssa about the football in the first episode (they were tossing the ball near her, odds were good she might get beaned), but...how in the *fuck* could she possibly have known (from Alyssa's point of view) that she needed to sidestep a roll of toilet paper at that EXACT MOMENT in the hallway?
EDIT: "WHYHELLOAGAINALYSSA..." *MUHAHAHAHA* D:
EDIT(2): Why does Alyssa have a mouthful of marbles?
Making Max go through people's stuff WHILE THEY'RE RIGHT THERE is *never* not uncomfortable. (Though, +1 for video game immersion, I suppose, if it makes me feel that way.)
I *seriously* did not notice how much everyone was pushing Warren on Max my first playthrough. (Then again, I didn't notice the degree to which everyone was a douche to Max my first playthrough, either.) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Surprisingly, I was not bothered a tosh, going through Kate's room, while she was RIGHT THERE. :)
35:50 Honestly - using her "evil" manipulation power for good? AWESOME and fun: *pry* into those bitches' lives and use it to make 'em open up to you, Max. ;)
(*I* never talked to Taylor in my playthrough, either; good show, Aoife.)
So...I never noticed before (41:00): how is it that the homeless "Lottery Ticket" guy *sounds* like Ving Rhames, but *looks* like Harry Dean Stanton?
BONUS: WHAT DOES MARCELLUS WALLACE LOOK LIKE? :D ruclips.net/video/aopg7JqbgMo/видео.html
I'm all here for the Warren hating lmao
Warren is the best character
Yeah same I mean I don't hate him he's just not my favorite at all, plus he's trying way too hard!
Love u guys
I did not play the game myself, and have no intention to.
I am getting Kingdom Hearts flashbacks though, with Square Enix and superpowered teenagers.
Also, everything I need to know about Max is right there @4:39. Quoting Lord of the Rings out of context.
Fuck you Max!
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes, a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.
Don't try and win back points with a Bradbury reference after that!
1:27:36 in BTS it was about 175$, here it's 5000.
If you're talking about Chloe's debt to Frank, its not the same debt. The $175 is how much free weed Frank has been giving her while the $5000 was borrowed to fix her truck so she can leave with Rachel.
I know I just meant he is probably more willing to forgive the debt from BTS because it's much less money.
Aww, Baseketball reference :D
Keep destroying Warren. You're valid. He's the worst.
Oh man. Coming back to this, I have no idea why I ever liked Max at all.
But the Rachel stuff has a lot more impact this time around, which is nice.
Overall I'm glad it's you replaying it and not me. Also means I'm getting your quality commentary.
This is a win/win situation.
I had the same reaction. Max kinda... sucks? She's manipulative, nosy, and kinda judgemental. Also much more sympathetic to Chloe being annoyed with Max for the phone thing post-Before the Storm.
SpydersByte Warren creeps out some people, there's one point in the game (i forgot when), when you can see Warren secretly peering into Max's room from the outside. Check here to see more reasons why Warren is a creep/stalker: steamcommunity.com/app/319630/discussions/0/537402115094938779/
Chloe Price I really ship her with Rachel now. Time to live in a world of denial, where nothing bad ever happens to them I guess :D
I dunno, to me, the Rachel / Chloe relationship has its own implications. Like, Rachel is really appealing to Chloe's rebellish side to get her to help her. The only time Chloe really gets anything out of their relationship is when she specifically has to ask / gets asked for it at the end of BtS Ep2.
And supporting that seems to be that Chloe's Ghost Dad seems to warn her about Rachel. "You're so drawn to it, you don't even realize the danger. [...] Fire is jealous, Chloe. It wants all the beauty for itself. That's why you need to be careful."
It makes me think that it's a pretty one-sided relationship and that even present-day Chloe never really realized that. I mean, we never know what would've happened if Chloe and Rachel actually managed to runaway together to see this go to it's conclusion.
Geminias i mean, in LiS Frank says that him and Rachel had a thing, so she would have been cheating on Chloe. (If I remember all of that correctly, it's been a while)
You didn't actually have to talk to Warren at school 😂
In my defence I did say I'd go with Warren because he did take a beating for Max. I mean come on, that had to be worth something.
Madness1 I can see people finding him too awkward, but their aversion of him borders on irrational lol
Madness1 I understand where you're coming from, but does Max owe it to Warren to date him now? Warren could use his sweats and tears to reach the moon for Max and I still don't think Max OWES him a date or to be his gf when its clear she doesnt like him that way.
I said they could go out, not date. Guys and girls can go to the same place and do stuff together, without dating, you know. Hell, drone girl can have him.
Madness1 I get what you mean but its very clear Warren wants more than just friendship, so wouldn't Max be leading him on if she were to go out with him? Yeah, if Warren likes Brooke in the future, I think they fit each other better
Well if they kill Chloe...which to be honest is the right choice...Max will need some Doctor Love! Because somehow I don't think Victoria is going to put out for Max.
Jeffershit calls it a beautiful word and yet botches the pronunciation of chiaroscuro. Then five seconds later Aoife makes it even worse. :-D
I love how you hate Warren, like i do xD all the game trying to avoid him, is really a persistent annoying butnecessaryattheend boy
Y’all are too hard on the kids lol. Max isn’t that bad, she is sweet and caring plus anybody would be a least somewhat manipulative if they could rewind time.. and Warren may be.. many things, but he’s a nice kid. Also you love Rachel and she IS manipulative and impulsive and has a tendency for playing games. I love you guys though 👍
Can you two try playing Doki Doki literature Club while streaming? It's very enjoyable game.
1:20:12 They say a man touched it and grew a beard
OH that's the holy stone. Well I'm ashamed of myself now xD
Johnny looks like such a 'bad boy' this episode (/jk)
IS THE HOMELESS WOMAN SERA!?!?!?!?!?!?
Best thing to do is not help Alyssa ;)
Is it just me, or does Johnny look like his head is photoshopped to someone else's body?
full bugman
why you take so much for upload the episode :(
Just wanna ask although it's a very long time now, why do you hate Warren so much? He's been helpful to Max everytime and he's not even mean to anyone. I personally think that he's cute and lovable with his attitude, but how come you guys hate him? You always whine and tell warren to piss off whenever he's around
This is a really late comment, but I think a lot of it is around him seeming to try and force more of a relationship. Like Max doesn't seem to be particularly interested in Warren as anything more than a friend (though you can kinda make choices around that) and I guess it can just be annoying/frustrating having someone always trying to hug you, hang out, do anything you want or defend you. Like when he defends or helps Max sometimes it feels like he's mainly doing it because he wants to get something out of it, like another point in the Max/Warren relationship jar.
What's with all the Warren hate lol
I ship Grahamfield, Max with Chloe feels weird to me, they're cute as friends, but that's it! Amberprice trasher since game 1! :)
The Warren hate is just too much. A decent person doesn't have a chance. These games tell you a lot about the people who play them.
A decent person? Warren is a forced, repetitive jackass that keeps showing up no matter how many times he’s denied. Says a lot…
