I’m more furious than a furious person with a degree in furiousness from Furious University after they just stubbed their toe on the way to Furious Class. 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Life is Strange: True Colors is an excellent game, one that✱ makes your choices feel impactful on the narrative yet also incredibly natural, and every choice - big or small - has meaning to it. 🐼It mostly avoids major ‘this’ or ‘that’ choices, swapping out sliding doors moments in favour of the game more naturally asking Alex Chen what her take is on any given situation. It does however culminate in a fairly big decision, and unfortunately, so many of you are making it wrong.

Spare me the angry emails. “It’s a choice based game!”, “Let people 🔯play how they want!”, and “You still owe me for that broken window!” - wait, maybe that last one isn’t related. Look, I understand that how you play the game does not affect me at all, but then I suppose I’m not really furious at all. I’m curious. I’m more curious than a curious person with a degree in curiousness from Curious University after they just confused their toe on the way to Curious Class.
This really is your la🧸st warning ꧒for spoilers now. Go on, git.
The choice in question is Jed’s fate. Regardless of who takes your side in the final confrontation, you will emotionally square up to Jed, the man who killed your father and severa🥃l other men because of his vanity as foreman, to maintain the illusion of himself as a hero, and his own selfish arrogance. To cover up his secret, he shoots you in the head and dumps you down a mineshaft - the same mineshaft a massive corp is currently blowing up to cover up his past mis💖takes, in the conspiracy which killed your brother Gabe. That’s your father he’s left to die, your brother he has indirectly killed, and you he has directly tried to murder with a gunshot to the head. He shows no contrition, he denies all charges, and even as he thinks your dead body is rotting down in the mines, he’s doing further deals with the mining company, giving them a bigger control over the idyllic town of Haven Springs.
In this confrontation, you get to forgive Jed for his actions, or condemn him for them. Whe🍰n I played, a whopping 78 percent of people had forgiven him. Here, next time I see you on the street, remind m🅠e to pull down your pants and steal your money, yeah?
This is what I’m confused about. It’s not just a slight majority of suckers. It’s basically 80/20. Why is it that high? Hours ago, this man tried to kill you. He killed your brother. He killed your father. He’s shown no remorse, made no change to his actions, and is still shilling for the company that holds equal responsibility in both Gabe’s death and your father’s. What possibly could have moved you to decide to forgive him? Is it just ♈that Alex seems like a nice person and forgiveness is nice? There’s nice and then there’s goddamn doormat, and Alex is far too good a charac🎉ter ꦇfor you lot to let everyone walk all over her. Okay, so maybe I’m a little furious.
I played during the review period, and I played it quickly. I rechecked again, once our reviewer🔯 -꧂ and dirty, dirty, Jed forgiver - Jade King had compl🤡eted the game, and the numbers had barely shifted, sitting at 76 to 24. Now that it’s out in the wild, the number🍬s are 72 and 28. What on Earth is compelling so many of you to forgive a man who so clearly doesn’t deserve it?
As I was making this choice the first time, I thought it might end up being the game’s biggest blemish. The game boils down to a choice which clearly has a right answer and a wrong answer - it felt like poor design. Alex’s delivery of &ldquo🦩;and I condemn you,” gave me chills - chills you all missed - but I worried ending on such an obvious decision was a waste of potential. Now that I know I’m in the vast minority, that flaw ceases to exist.
I’m still just so incredibly confused by all this. Answers on a postcard please, or failing that, an angry email or all caps Facebook comment. What did Jed do to earn you꧙r forgiveness?
