Huh, the music video for Got Well Soon was posted on October 4th, 2013 - the day of the Vortex Club party where Kate was drugged...

I am so excited for the next part of the game but simultaneously so sad because I think this is the last time we see Justin blazed as hell again. I love that guy

The Vortex Party always felt like week to me. The obvious and flagrant accepted-deviance of it (high school students openly drinking beer with no sign of judgement from authority figures) clashes. The game tries to convey a typical party that the player will understand while, at the same time, tries to convey immoral side that, hopefully, the player will also understand. I'm all for ambiguity and circumstances being layered with multiple meanings, but the game doesn't establish the "badness" of character actions outside of what happened to Kate marsh. The previous episodes, underage drinking and getting stone had always been accepted as the way the students of Blackwell function. Then, just because of a change of scenery, these actions are supposed to be illicit some sort of revulsion from the player. I think it doesn't help that the outcast characters show up to the party. Characters like Alyssa show up and party, and then explain how terrible it is to party. It doesn't seem like much of a protest if the protesters do the same thing that the people against whom they are protesting do. Then again, teenagers are big into the irony thing.

Holy poo poo Max can be loving savage when she wants to be. That was so jarring compared to the rest of the video. I wonder what Chloe was doing this whole time? Glad to see she hasn't shot anybody yet, probably. Warning Victoria is the objectively correct choice here and I'm glad it's winning by a landslide. I thought there was a fifth episode to this game? But it's the end of the world?  Panzer, are you going to be doing any more alt-route videos once the LP is over? I do enjoy seeing what Nega-Max does and I've been wondering how the game changes if Kate dies, if Frank/Frank's dog dies, etc. (Though this is probably a ridiculous amount of work I'm still curious because this game/LP is incredible aaaaa)

And honestly no, I probably won't be! A lot of things both large and small can change, and I feel like I'd rather leave some stuff to motivate people to get the game themselves to find.

If Max had moved into a super bright area and her irises hadn't shrank, then there would be evidence she had gotten on the dosed train. Or is this a  thing?

Max's eyes being open wide is a metaphor for us, the players, whose view has been expanded greatly with the knowledge that Rachel is no longer with us Max's grey hoodie is symbolism for the moral ambiguity of holding a party under such circumstances. teenagers need to wind down and relax yet at the same time it comes across as in poor taste of the recent events Chloe becoming separated from us encourages us to attempt to look for her, much like she was looking for Rachel the entire time. it puts us in her shoes to experience her suffering join me next time as I explore the true meaning behind Victoria's pants (it's communism and the plight of the every man)

Let's not jump to conclusions here! Just because there may be some circumstantial evidence against him, we shouldn't start suspecting that poor guy. It's probably just one big misunderstanding and in a few days they'll all laugh about those silly shenanigans.

Said party is also taking place on the campus, so it's somehow advocated by Blackwell. Presumably everyone in the Prescott pocket just turns a blind-eye towards Vortex Club parties.

This twist. Oh man, this twist was gold the first time, it was gold when my friend was playing it and I was watching him via PS4 Share ("gently caress YOU NATHAN YOU SON OF A- .......What. The. gently caress!?!?"), and I suspect once more see this the reaction will be just as good.

Paul Zuvella posted:Maybe it was just me, but this twist was hilariously obvious to me and honestly the weakest part of the game in my opinion. I think this is completely based on who you are as a person and how much you notice in narratives. It's always a problem when writing a mystery to balance the clues and the twist appropriately, and I thought they did a pretty drat good job! My first time through I did not see it coming at all and it completely floored me, but it varies based on personal experience. v  vRequest for the thread at large: if you just watched that video and you didn't see the twist coming, please post your immediate thoughts in reaction to it in the thread (cause that's the best bit lmao) Additionally, since it's been a hot minute, here's the stats for Episode 4!   I'm pretty surprised even 6% of people watch Chloe murder Frank and go yeah, this is fine, i'll just leave this as is

As soon as the syringe came out like in a loving Dexter episode, it was pretty drat obvious this couldn't be Nathan. Like come on. Nathan? Silently creeping up behind someone to give them a perfectly placed shot? Speaking of shots, the excellent marksmanship just confirmed it had to be an adult. I was kinda expecting Nathan's father, though, but neither that nor what we actually got makes much sense aside from meta reasoning (the worst reasoning) anyways.

Be mean to Victoria, blame Chloe for the joint, derail the train, let Kate kill herself, get suspended from Blackwell, don't kiss Chloe, kill Pompidou and Frank. Leave a trail of destruction and broken hearts in Max's wake. Also, I never saw the Jefferson twist coming, but then I never see any twist coming. I am the worst at solving mysteries.

Silently creeping up behind someone to give them a perfectly placed shot? Nathan's father would be a pretty bad twist, as he has not been an active character in really any part of the story. Like that's honestly the biggest problem with it all for me. Nathan's father is not really present, so it couldn't be him, and it's way too organized an effort to be Nathan. Also there is exactly one professional photographer in the entire game. e: Like I guessed who it was in episode one, but if you got to the bunker and didn't figure it out then I would be honestly surprised.
