Life is Strange Progress: I am now at what I presume to be very close to the end of Episode 2 as I have all the trophy photos. Everyone just bailed on class to head to the dorms.

Still liking the game, or more precisely, its format/gimmicks. However, this was not a good chapter for Chloe. Uh... let's see if I remember the big decisions. Think the first was talking to Kate. Told her to report Nathan too. While I can see the backfire potential Max mentions in the other path, it should be better to get these things on the record. Also, with her mentioning she'd also report him to the principal maybe that guy will realize there's a pattern here. (Note from the future: nope.)

not a major decision but i had max turn warren down. dude comes on way too strong.

At the diner I had Max answer Kate's phone call. This was essentially the beginning of Chloe being a jerk. While I feel like Max could have helped by explaining that there's a serious situation going on here, I almost feel like Chloe might not care still. As Max points out in her journal about this choice, Chloe needs to realize Max can have more than one friend. I will note that Joyce being semi-defensive of David hitting Chloe is... not good.

At Chloe's junkyard (oh god trying to examine everything here) when they got threatened, Max did not shoot. Aside from this being the obvious IC decision IMO, honestly given the alternate path it really does kinda seem for the best. I mean, no need to needlessly antagonize the guy.

This wasn't framed as a major decision, but I saved Chloe by using the fuse box to unlock the lever. I noticed on my way back after getting the tools that I could have tried to roll some stuff down to hit the jammed lever. Not sure if that was a solution, and if so, what it'd have done. I could see some pretty twisted bad ends, like it landing on the tracks and messing with the train.

Let's see other thoughts: yo jefferson with the heel turn here. I started by telling him stuff but when he turned on Kate in the conversation I decided to have Max basically tell him almost nothing. Weirdly, when she does tell him stuff, that issue with the photo that I should totally still have since inventory persists came up and the butterfly symbol showed. Not sure if that's because I had Max tell him she saw this, or the fact that I didn't have the photo automatically sets me on a path of "didn't take one" where there could have been a "say you have a picture" choice there. But I mean the butterfly doesn't show if you just evade that topic like I ultimately did so I dunno.

Anyway, yeah, Chloe is kind of a jerk. Yes, I've essentially had Max not help her on these major decisions, but each time it's been reasonable IMO and even Max has been calling her out (in the journal or even directly towards the end) for trying to make her feel like crap for it. She might have backed off since Max saved her again but we'll see. I don't hate Chloe or anything, I feel I kind of get her character, but man she is not being very likable.

also brooke being jealous of max over warren and max not getting it is hilarious. brooke is okay by me.

Also, the song Max can play in her room at the start of Episode 2 was cool. i wish i could play it more. =(
