Yeah, I did that. Thing is, because you can only do it at a certain moment, I thought I had to go trough hoops to do it. So I lost time searching for a way to do the grafitti, while actually you just have to do the chores and it comes available automatically :P
Yeah I know what you mean. I went back to replay the first game after episode 1 of BtS came out, and I wasn't able to get through episode 4. I did not want to have to watch that scene where Chloe finds Rachel, it's just too much to think about. I do plan to go through the whole first game again after the final prequel episode comes out though, it's going to be rough.
Haha I did the exact same thing after episode 1. I got done with the alternate timeline section, reunited Max and Chloe, put the game down and haven't picked it up again since.
Do you make the same choices every time? Because my first and only playthrough is my own little true canon storyline. Can't change that! :P
I've replayed it twice and I chose the same things. I can't bear to let Kate die and you're god damn right I'm gonna kill the town for my favorite angry, blue-haired lesbian (or bisexual; they don't make it super clear in the original what she identifies as).
I did and I honestly regret it. I have this weird thing where my first playthrough ensconces itself as canonical in my head. It kills me. I've done a total 180 on it but I don't know that I'll ever actually finish it again.
Haha, yeah I'm a monster, my first choice was Bay. I played through twice after that though and picked Bae both times instead. And yeah I think it will be literally impossible for me to let Chloe die ever again.
I definitely have a strong attachment to the way my first playthrough went, but I loved going back and playing it again to make different choices. It's hard for some of them though, like I saved Kate on my first playthrough so I had to deliberately let her die in order to see how that all plays out, which is not very fun.
I just watch other outcomes on Youtube and pretend they're the non-canon choices.
You chose correctly and you're better off not seeing the Bay ending. I wish I was in your shoes!
Just because Bay is the ending that makes sense and is actually well done doesn't make it the right ending! >:(
I've become content with the new voice actor for Chloe after getting used to it, but watching this reminded me how much better Ashly was. I'm still pissed they basically replaced everyone character's voices.
I like BtS/Rhianna's version of the character a bit better (although this might be protagonist bias - I relate to her VERY strongly), but I like Ash too. They kind of exist alongside eachother in my head. I think Rhianna's deadpan snark makes a lot of sense for Chloe to me. I also think she kills it with the more vulnerable stuff, like the junkyard scene in episode 1.
Well, there's a reason for the strike, right? Isn't that on Square Enix and doesn't it show how much they care about their voice actors if they're willing to just replace everyone?
The part where Chloe goes around hitting things with her bat is actually one of the scenes which I think shows where Rhianna is lacking. I feel like she doesn't have the range that Ashly has and it shows in her relatively monotone delivery in that part of the scene. The moment where she sees the car is better, but I think that Ashly would've pulled off the entire junkyard scene much better overall.
