Yeah. 
her dad and her sisters are the key. I'd say that part would be worth replaying canon to your playthrough if you care that much about it.

Cant wait t play this game.
I simply can't work on an episodic timeline so I have to wait until all are available to enjoy them.

I chose the wrong bible verse. I feel your pain
Oh, yep, the bible verse too. That's what is screwed up first time around.
I kinda wish this game had a photo mode where you could just take a picture whenever you want and then post it online somewhere with the old white outline and then your caption would come up as if you've written on the outline.
It's tempting, but no. I think living with your actions and decisions, right or wrong, success or failure, is a big part of this game. So while I'm disappointed with what happened and the fact that I screwed up, I'm gonna proceed as is.Yeah.
This Chloe cosplay is so good. Hella gorgeous lol
dat compression tho
is there a better quality ver
edit: oh weird, the twitter link's image is larger so there're compression artifacts

hella pretty
Ep. 4
In regards to the early Chloe decision did anyone else refuse purely because they did not have any belief that version of reality would be rewritten back to the original timeline?
Don't get me wrong it was a powerful moment regardless and I was gutted by that scene, but there was no way I was going to accept given that I was 100% sure I would be returning to the original timeline and I didn't want that on my conscious knowing that it wouldn't matter in the long run. If I assist her suicide that's a traumatizing moment that sticks with me regardless of which timeline I'm in because that's how Max's powers work.
When she asked I was just like fuck no I'm not going to kill you I'm going to undo everything I've done to fuck up your life because it was a huge mistake, you are going to live and we are going to be best fucking friends forever goddammit.
This if from someone who fully supports assisted suicide for people dying in tremendous pain. I just couldn't even handle her asking that question because I had zero belief that anything in that timeline would stick. Just from a design perspective it would be a horrible decision to make a game all about character development and player choice only to erase 3 episodes worth of it and leave you stuck in a foreign reality where the world state has to be relearned. I could never once believe that timeline had any real stakes other than the emotional toll it would take on me.

we made Dr. Dogg put some Chromatic Aberration on the picture
It's a subtle but effective change

Just finished up episode 4. After that ending, the wait for episode 5 is going to be so bad. I knew
. This game is just brilliant.
Jefferson was going to be involved somehow
Finished Ep4. I'm not quite sure how I feel about the ending.
I don't know. Maybe I ran out of emotions due to the first half of this episode.
I didn't really guess that Jefferson would be the villain, although his picking of Victoria set off a lot of warning bells. I guess that conversation he had with her on the steps was just a red herring in a way.
Chloe seems destined to die. I don't see her coming back unless max powers up and pulls a dbz rewind or she jumps into a previous photo. Considering all the shit she's gone through when she ate that bullet I was like, just tired. It was a shock, and I care for her as a character so I'm a bit pissed, but...yeah.

That conversation really got me. Some hard stuff.
Yep, that was a good scene. It's pretty neat how
in the darkest timeline they're like best buds.

Ask and you shall receive.

I think this was me. This game is throwing everything at me. It's gonna get to a certain point that I'm going to be numb to anything!

I actually thought the opposite, playing at 4K downsampled to 1080p makes pre-rendered cutscenes REALLY noticable and look kind of bad compared to how how crisp and smooth my game looks usually.
Episode 4 had way more pre-rendered cutscenes than any other episode for things that had been in real time previously.
It's actually super weird, I'm not sure why they decided to stop doing things in real time, overall I feel like they cut some corners that they didn't cut in earlier episodes.
This was episode was twice as long yet developed in relatively the same time frame. I thought there was a lot of real-time actually.
The investigation and the hospital for example are two standouts. One was a nice interactive puzzle and the other was a completely new location only accessible by a portion of the players. Add to that Chloe's alternate house, the male dorms, the beach, the barn + Dark Room, the Vortex Club party (it wouldn't be fair to say it's simply the pool area when it was changed so much and had so many people you could talk to) and

Indeed. DONTNOD is doing some black magic keeping up the quality and making the game longer in a similar time frame.
Fun Fact
We never see that picture or Victoria's contest photo, so we don't know who possesses them

Finally got around to finishing episode 4.
Did anybody else notice a significant difference in writing quality? For the better?
Not that the other episodes were terrible by any means, but they often had some unrealistic dialogue/bad localization, but this episode was pretty damn good dialogue wise.
Part that stood out to me was the intro. Was done very well.

Just finished episode 4 and wow that was very good!
Since there is such a big wait until episode 5 I was thinking of making another save file and playing through again form episode 1 but making different choices?
Worth it? Will it make much difference?

I think I am going to do the same thing. Would like to see how it plays out if
Kate Dies
Warren beat up Nathan
comfort Victoria
assist Chloe's death
I am conflicted about getting episode 5. I can't wait to see how it ends, but I will be genuinely gutted when it is all over.

Have they provided any release date range for episode 5?
Yeah, that's a good catch.
Did we already discuss the IGN review 6/10?

Wow, very good cosplay. I loved this Max cosplay as well (too bad it's an iPhone and not a Polaroid):
I disagree generally, but I fully agree that when they decide to just
go kill Nathan, and they never think twice about it... That was ridiculous.

Weird, I thought LiS was supposed to be on sale. Maybe they just goofed and put up a LiS picture on the deals section?
give the soundtrack a few rounds
speaking of the soundtrack, have you actually given some of the songs lyrics a read? i was listening to In my Mind by amanda Palmer and only just realised what the last line was.
it's such a quaint and and cute song, but then...
i thought i misheard until i looked it up.

Heard it might be around November - December.
From who? I was just assuming end of September based on the release pattern.

I don't know how I feel about this episode.
Such a huge shift in tone.
Such a huge shift in tone.
Well, the grande finale maybe takes more time. Who knows how much game is yet to come to wrap it all up. Playtesting a game with so many options gotta be tiresome too.
I for one am fine with waiting as long as the stoey wraps up amazing.
I thought it was a decent enough job in easing in that really dark tone. Some pretty scary accusations and rumors have already been brought up recently in the game, and I think the content in the tail end of episode 3 was pretty sad and real to go into 4.
Chariot said:
Yeah, I'm fine if this takes longer, I just wasn't aware. More time to enjoy this game still going on, theorize, speculate, all that, most importantly more time for the developers to make sure the episode is the best it can possibly be.
So Ashly Burch (voice actress for Chloe) was at a UK convention this weekend just gone.
I got her autograph
I heard it was her, knew her name from on here and elsewhere and when I just looked it up I figured Kiki DeWynter makes sense - but the girl also voices Rei from Persona Q? What the fuck.
