Let me tell you of the world I used to know
Hot Dog Man and his disgusting Mustard lover are the true reason Arcadia Bay is to be cleansed. While we wait for the purifying storm, Jefferson has been taking out the trash himself, one unholy deviant at a time. He maintains a thorough photographic record, but only to serve as a frightening warning for future generations.

I'm waiting for the Ep 5 scene where the superpowered assassins come to kill Max for disrupting the timeline. Max gets a gun and the game turns into an FPS with time-rewind.

Max will save Chloe. She has to. She/I will rewind time a million times, endure countless nightmare lifetimes until the answer is found. Chloe's not getting let down again, the power of friendship cannot be denied. :colbert:

This can only work if Chloe breaks the cycle by wishing to be god though.

Shaped like a friend

My wild guess for episode 5 is that Mr. Jefferson is going to drag Chloe onto a theater stage and kiss her before turning into a giant monster blueberry and chasing Max down a random spiral staircase.

Sometimes it's not the bomb that's retarded.

Max meets David Young and they walk into the sunset in search of a perfect memento.

"Call me Super Max. That's what everyone calls me."

Sidenote, I found it incredibly distracting that Max signs her texts with xomaxo, because first of all, who signs texts? Second of all it read like xo ma xo, and I was really confused for a while there.

It's extra weird loading up MKX after playing Life is Strange. Here's hoping my dual-pistol wielding Chloe Cage lands a sick nutpunch X-Ray on the final boss, ostensibly followed by a selfie fatality.

I'm completely fine with this timeline especially if Warren is the damsel that constantly needs to be saved.

Max is confused why Chloe suddenly became hardcore military minded like David. Meanwhile, Special Forces wonder why Cassie suddenly got blue hair and became (even more) or a smart rear end.

If you were to use your time travel powers to go back and get rid of Jefferson in some way before he got to doing all he was doing, I wonder if David would've been a less paranoid dude and would've been a better stepfather to Chloe

It doesn't mean it's a date. Especially if Max and Chloe are five seconds away from eloping.

Max finds out about Rachel and is jealous; she can't stop asking questions about her, obviously considering her a rival for Chloe's affections. Maybe sometime in the past a time paradox duplicate of Max has her house burned down by her pathetically lightweight friend who got drunk off a caesar salad. The polaroid-fueled fire released a toxic smoke that altered Max's appearance and voice; no longer considering herself the "real" Max, she decided to change her name too. Later on, "Rachel" bumps into Chloe and is immediately attracted to her eye. They have a grand old time. Years later, Max finds out about Rachel and is jealous; she can't stop asking questions about her, obviously considering her a rival for Chloe's affections. Maybe sometime in the past...

Obviously Max is Rachel reincarnated, and the storm is a metaphor for how Max needs to release her attachments to worldly concerns in order to save the town and escape the cycle of rebirth.

I thought it looked pretty familiar to that, but assumed it was just something along that general style rather than actual stills from the movie.

I'm assuming this is just an amusing coincidence rather than anything French developers would actually know about.
