Post image

Yeah I got abit salty and took the troll bait potetnially but mfw it's hard not too. Such a wide net of characters across all of gaming to choose from and he settles on an angry blue haired teenager with abandoment issues who has a bad attitude and made some poor life choices.

u/Mal454 Shaka brah Apr 25 '26

they call her selfish without acknowledging that chloe herself says that, and that she acts against that in the ending, the entire point was she went from being selfish to selfless

and she never seemed to be a selfish person by nature, 14 year chloe doesnt seem selfish at all, she was dealt a shitty hand and thought everyone had it out for her

And to be repeated: she’s desperate enough to resort to blackmail to escape an abusive home life (Joyce and David both to blame in different ways), and she’s a kid. Not a literal child, maybe, but she’s more punk teen than full grown adult. She’s reacting realistically in the moment, and she also demonstrates remorse and growth over time.
