drat I really liked this episode up till that last bit; is there some rule that every time travel story has to be about how you can't change things because I'm pretty sick of that. Also it kind of falls apart if you think about it I still recommend this game to everyone though

I'm not meaning to single you out or attack you or say you're wrong, by the way. I'm just trying to explain (for my own benefit, really, to help process the emotions I'm feeling after the game) what I got out of the story and why the endings worked for me.

No that's cool, it's been interesting reading everyones takes on the ending. Personally I've been rolling it around in my head and I always end up back at disappointed though, I guess it feels like they went for bittersweet but just hit bitter instead

I finally did the bad ending, the butterfly taunting Max at the end was really just too much. "The End! No moral." in videogame form

It is actually refreshing (for me at least) to have a super power you try to use "for good" and it only continually fucks things up and the only way to do good things is to stop using it.

This is basically every time travel story ever

Edit: I'm gonna walk that back a bit, but it is really really common
