Which ending did you choose? (SPOILER ALERT)

[󠀡󠀡 ⁧⁧Darius]

Which ending did you guys choose?

I chose to sacrifice Arcadia Bay. I believe humans are selfish by nature and therefore I do not deny it.

I do not deny my nature and I prioritize my happiness.

You can tell me that sacrificing Chloe was the more rational thing to do but I know if it was me in Max's place - I would've done the right thing for myself by not sacrificing Chloe.

Why would I choose to suffer for the sake of others? Why should I?

The Chloe ending is the real ending. Think about it.

Saving Chloe means that every single choice you made still exists. The relationships effected (David and Joyce), who max is in "love" with, the fate of Kate/Victoria, how everyone feels towards Max, Nathans death, etc.

That said, the Chloe ending shows the Prescott families hold on Arcadia Bay is pretty much ruined. Pan Estates is destroyed. It's also hinted that Warren, Frank, and Joyce live, as the diner is still intact.

In the "Save Arcadia" ending, every choice you made is erased and a new timeline gets created that Max did not influence. Max admits when she goes into a new timeline she has no idea what happens after that. When she came to in chapter 4 in the alternate timeline she didn't even remember writing the stuff in her journal that she did.

It just makes logical sense to take the Chloe ending, or there isn't a real point to the game at all.

When I played, I thought saving Arcadia bay was the best but it took me like 15-20 minutes to think about it and I believe I didnt wait long enough before deciding... And I admit I tried both ending.. I never do that in that kind of games.. to me, the first playthrought is the only good playthrough.. Like, I never replayed any of the Telltales Walking dead game to see alternate endings.. never... And I know there are many of them.

So, at very beginning, I thought it was better for Arcadia bay to be saved because Chloe asked me to save her mom and it's true very often during the game, she sounds really selfish annoying that maybe saving Arcadia was the first time in all the game she was thinking about others. But I'll have to mention that when I played LiS, I played first episode, waited few months then played the 4 remaining ones next to each others... replaying the episode 1 no showed me many thing I forgot about Chloe... if I played all the 5 of them straigth, maybe I would have saved Chloe instead. Saving Arcadia Bay means that every choice you made will never exist... I dont really care about this.. but someone told me this: If you let Chloe die in bathroom, then she'll never know what happened to Rachel.. and she was the only one searching for her.... she deserverd to know what happened to her friend.. and it's true...I dont care it erase all my choices but... having Chloe die without knowing that Rachel never abandonned her, it's not fair.. This said, saving Arcadia Bay means the Prescott and Jefferson will be brough to justice which is a really good thing because it brings hope for everyone.

I mean, the choices have plenty of reasons to argue for. But after realizing that Chloe would never know what happened to Rachel Amber... and after playing LiS:BtS... I would never pick Arcadia Bay over Chloe ever again... I mean, there are still plenty of reasons to save Arcdia bay... and when I chose this in the first place, I was trying to listen to my reason... but... maybe once in awhile, t hinking with your heart is the way to go.. my heart goes to Chloe... forever!

anybody who picks chloe over arcadia bay is dumb imo. chloe is not the only person in the game who is important to max. max is just as much friends with chloe's mom or warren as chloe is. Also people say that choosing to sacrifice chloe means erasing your choices when in actuality i see it as a new beginning for all of arcadia bay. through the time spent with chloe in all those timelines we learned that everybody had the potential for change. you see this most with the victoria. So starting over means max can use what she learned and her experience to make arcadia bay better. The events of the game were basically a baptism for arcadia bay, a way to wake up. So i stand by my choice to sacrifice chloe. The game points to this option the most. People also say that if it was actually a choice they had to make in real life they would pick the family member as well and in that case i still say i would pick the safety of everyone over just one person. That's just me.

[.:Lorenzo:.]

the best choice is to save arcadia bay ... chloe was destiny to die just look at how many times we saved it.

[Masquerade]

Saving arcadia bay is the better ending cause it's longer, better made and a lot more emotional whereas if you save chloe you just see the bay get destroyed and it ends. (even if it makes all your decisions pointless but maybe thats the point)

[Mägitsch]

i also chose the "sacrifice Arcadia Bay" ending, because i didnt want to lose a good friend with who i made some great memories and with who i played along the whole game.

Just my opinion.

I agree...

[Jeckenn]

I saved Chloe because well basically Max and Chloe grew up together and would be like sisters or lovers depending how you personally want to see things like that. So loving someone like that well it is NOT easy to sacrifice that so in my mind the ONLY ending for me is to save Chloe and let the rest of Arcadia Bay fend for themselves...

The point is that the choices you made leading up to it influence your final choice. People died in my playthough from the mistakes I had made, being given the choice to wipe clean those mistakes and save an entire town was a compelling option, even if it meant having to sacrifice Chloe. The choices still matter even if they no longer happened, because they affect the final choice to undo everything.

But the thing is you didnt just play the game with her alone. The game also gave you the chance to make connections with eveyone. So even though i grew to like chloe alot i couldnt bring myself to sacrifice everyone just for her. Then there's also the logistics of it that includes the fact that max is only 18 and would have to go back home to her parents not travel with chloe and chloe would probably have to get a job and an apartment somewhere since she never graduated. All in all i can't see sacrificing arcadia bay being a viable option in the slightest.

Yeah and what u gonna do with all those mediocre relationships. They might be nice but they'll never be as strong as the relationship with Chloe + losing Chloe would ruin Max more than letting nature take its course on Arcadia Bay + keeping Chloe alive would make it easier for Max to get over everything

I think you are misjudging the strength of max's relationship with other people. just because you may not have liked them doesnt mean Max did'nt like them. Having chloe alive would not make max get over the fact that she let everyone else die. You saw how much it hurt that she let william die again in the past, but you're saying she'll be alright with chloe's mom being dead, warren being dead, and countless other people she go to know. You should also read the diary more to see how she felt about these people. Max definitely would be scarred for life with that ending. especially since she would end having to go home to her parents and chloe would have to get her own place.

You are being completely short-sided. Welcome to the real world where friendship doesnt feed you or pay your bills. There's no way in hell they would be able to stay together. Max dreams of being a photographer and chloe was expelled from school. they are in completely different places and once dust settles on arcadia bay they would realize what a terrible and misguided choice they made.
