@@patrickveracruz517 i mean no one knows and if that was the case she shoulded or woulded of told chloe as they basically had no secrets and she even wrote love cards to him but idk i just wished she was a live so she could tell chloe why she did it
@@jairzavalalemus3253 I just saw a video that the actress who plays Rachel tell that she is working on a new videogame and seems like it actually is another Life is Strange (but she wasn't allowed to give any informations).. maybe we will know the truth? I hope so! :) And also, I was thinking a lot about it after I finished BTS. Seems like Rachel is a completely different person on the first game, you know... like if it wasn't her at all! Then I realized that besides of what you guys said, she became a drug addicted (a real serious disease) and we can kinda understand why she did all those things that don't look like herself. It's funny how makes me kinda mad when people say that Rachel is a traitor and fake with Chloe lol Seems that people forget the whole context (drugs, trying to get away, etc)... But really, if you see the first game again but after you play BTS, seems like she's even another person (not just faking it) and that the most things they say about her was invented by the people lol Even when the game show us that Rachel was a assidue Void's member I was like: WTF, really?! Well, at least it seems like that to me. I really thought a lot about so many things. I hope I didn't got blinded by the beauty of fire! :P
@@jaquetaqueva0 oh well i really hope they do another one is by far one of my favorite series.... and yeah but that doesnt justifie all the lies rachel told chloe like even if she was doing that for both of them she could of still told her but well idk we'll only know if the game ever comes back
Bear with me this is long winded but worth the read. at 1:49:19 the girls start talking about their plan. their... dream (that’s important) to go to santa monica (also v important) and in Life is Strange there’s a song played called “santa monica dream” whilst max and chloe are talking about rachel going missing and their plan to leave arcadia bay. ONE OF THE LYRICS TO THE SONG IS “Goodbye my santa monica dream” and if you recall max has a little thought thing that is along the lines of “this isn’t the kind of music chloe normally listens to. maybe it reminds her of rachel” (it’s paraphrasing i can’t remember the exact quote) I. almost. cried. when i realised this. Dang the creators are smart asf
In my personal Headcanon, Mr. Keaton finds out about what Nathan and Jefferson are doing in Life is Strange and before they can put their hands on Rachel, Keaton charges into the dark room armed with a 2x4 and he knocks both of them out as he screams "GET AWAY FROM MY SHIP! Uh, I MEAN STUDENT!" And then they all lived happily ever after.
In my Headcanon, Chloe and Rachel (who lives) stay together and Max returns, who will get into a relationship with Steph Gingrich. Which leaves Mikey, who will date Samantha Myers (she returns as well, I know convenient right..) and they live happily ever after, until the end of their days. My version is perfect. Don't @ me.
just finished before the storm and i haven't stopped thinking about rachel amber since... she really has this electric, addictive personality. i am so impressed with this game's storytelling and it's portrayal of the somewhat toxic relationship between rachel and chloe. the highs are so high that you almost don't notice all the red flags - how chloe seems confused and very out of her comfort zone all the time, how you can never tell if chloe's doing something because she wants to, or because rachel wants to, how intense their feelings are from the very first second, how eager chloe is to change herself to keep rachel, how rachel's mood is absolutely unpredictable and what terrible consequences saying something she won't like has. the tempest scene which chloe and rachel perform together says so much about the two of them - chloe asking for her liberty and rachel denying, asking chloe to run away with her. but then you've got the look in rachel's eye when she sees chloe at school, even though they've only seen each other once before, them listening to music together on the train, her performance in the tempest, how she acted after the show... there's something electric about rachel amber - her beauty, her confidence, how she always seems to know what she's doing, the look in her eye which makes you wonder what she knows that you don't. cloaked in mystery in life is strange, before the storm's rachel is even more amazing and special, because you can't believe she's really there - and you can never be sure how long she'll be there for. she's this kind of person you'd never expect to care for you - and she keeps surprising you with the fact that she does. she's the type of person who even though repeatedly hurts your feelings, makes the good times so good you can't bear to miss the next one. there's something truly magical about rachel amber
I love this. I think it’s important to acknowledge that yes she is imperfect and her relationship with Chloe showed toxicity, but we are still allowed to love her. We are still allowed to empathize and relate with her. She is an amazing character, and an exhilaration to get to know. I’ve been in toxic relationships, and I’ve been in healthy ones. And the way they write chloe it’s like falling in love all over again. The same feeling you get when you know someone will hurt you but you don’t care. She is the representation of many many people who enter relationships when they are not yet capable of loving themselves. She is like you said, the highest of the highs and the lowest of the lows. It’s difficult to see if chloe wants to do any of this at all or if she’s just fallen for rachel. Can’t stop waiting for the next big moment with Rachel. Terribly anxious when things are going well with Rachel because you don’t know when it’ll last. She’s just a kid. They both are. We cannot blame her for grasping at chloe for escape. For projecting onto chloe the love she wishes she had with her parents. Projecting onto chloe her cries for help and her desperation to find something meaningful to hold on to. I see a lot of myself in both Rachel and chloe, and i love this game. Because that’s what life is about, it is strange! And complex. And there are bad things that good people do. And hurtful things that hurt people do. And that it’s okay to love them regardless
Also I love the symbolism of the fire burning throughout the entire game. Slowly getting bigger in the little shots of the mountains. Slowing burning in the back. A ticking time bomb like Rachel and chloe
they are so in love, i mean you can ship whatever you want, but don’t tell me that they aren’t soulmates. it’s sad to let chloe die at the end of lis, it’s even more sad thinking that they never left arcadia bay, although the moment that broke my heart the most is when she finds rachel, but at least in that way i hope they will finally be happy together again and forever.
In the comics, Max and Chloe left Arcadia bay to somewhere else but max has the power to go to alternate realities where she went to the reality where Rachel is alive and Max, Chloe and Rachel are now in Santa Monica in Los Angeles
(When you look close to Rachel when your hair isn’t dyed and related to her throughout the entire game. Then while playing all you thought was “I wanna find my own Chloe” 😂)
She almost seems like she does t believe she has any real friends in her mind. People just preferred the over achieving hot girl but no one ever really listened to her. You see that in her quick temper. She spends so much time pleasing and acting like a character in life which is why Chloe was appealing. ..she knew she expected nothing from her. I am often amazed at how no one mentions how Rachel rubbed off on Chloe without changing her completely. This is the type of relationship you'd stumble upon and still think about decades later.
Rachel and Chloe are so damn cute together. Both of them are so cute and pretty. I love their tomboy styles btw. I will mos def take some notes down on their clothes. Lol
Literallyyy Chloe Price is fr one of my style icons. I guess she just dresses emo but I just love her character so that’s why I use her as fashion inspo 🙃
I really regret torturing myself and playing this before the LIS 1. Finding Rachel’s body wouldn’t have hurt as much if I didn’t know the backstory. Sure, she’s clearly someone important to Chloe that it’s still a bit sad, but it’s a whole different thing when you see why, how, and who she is as a person, all the time she spent with Chloe, and seeing how amazing she was. She’s charming and easy to get attached to.
You can say whatever you want but I love Rachel and I love her and Chloe's relationship. I'll never choose anybody in this game universe over Rachel. Her character gives me so much joy and gay panic. And that's all I need to be happy. This game is truly a masterpiece
I relate to Rachel a ton. I can charm almost anyone that in one point of my life it was almost a game. However....after a while you sort of start to forget who you are because although you aren't lying you're molding yourself to whoever you meet and it all sort of bleeds into some giant performance where playing a whole cast of characters and it gets very bizarre. It's only when you find someone you can let your guard down with you have a severe connection. I think Rachel is often mistaken as manipulating but I get the vibe she was just doing what everyone else wants while sitting at home later who the hell you just were just for acceptance.
pause at 1:19:39 they were really lazy when it came to Rachel's phone; the image is the same with YOU-KNOW-WHAT from the YOU-KNOW-WHERE (i won't spoil the ending of this game)
its weir because in the screen it says "Chloe calling. 17 missed calls" how would Chloe be calling her haha its kind of an easter egg or a spoiler, OR some detail that the producers put there to make us more sad hahaha
@@themasteractive8165 He's not the only one. The AmberPrice chemistry, the music, the thick tension in the air. Everything is just so magical. Kinda wished they had a sex scene in episode 2 or 3. That would've made me extremely happy.😃🤞
I don’t know if Chloe realizing that if you apply pressure to a bleeding wound then she won’t oass out as fast, and won’t be as close to watching Rachel die in the car. Just saying.
The knife went through Rachel's arm, so I don't know if it would help. Also, it would be more important for Chloe to get to the hospital in time than to keep pressure on the wound.
I keep coming back to this and I'd love to meet those who wrote it. You can watch their relationship go from infatuation to friendship to dedicated love. It's brilliant.
I get it maybe Rachel and Chloe weren’t the best couple or whatever and maybe Rachel did cheat on her or something but we don’t know but there’s a big possibility but you can’t deny that there’s so many cute fucking moments between them
Rachel used Chloe. Rachel knew that she could take advantage of Chloe’s reputation of being lonely by paying attention to her. All the times that Rachel went crazy (starting the fire, throwing the bottle at chloe, telling Chloe that she only cared about herself, etc.) Rachel specifically chose Chloe to try and run away with because she knew that chloe had nothing to lose and would be willing to do anything for her. After chloe couldn’t provide an escape for her, she moved on to frank and then Jefferson. Chloe always seemed to be the one who put effort into their relationship, and after a while the only thing that kept them together was Rachel’s urge to leave.
Then you clearly didn't watch the gameplay. James tells the story, you can clearly see Sarah's physical appearance, not only does she look like Rachel but she had the same style as Rachel as well as mannerisms, above all, the need to escape. Sarah was reckless. Rachel was reckless. Sarah could never be satisfied. Rachel could never be satisfied. She did things on a whim because she knows her desires are only temporary. You can call them soulmates, soulmates can be toxic after all. But Rachel hurt Chloe. Not the cheating but the constant drama and the threat to leave her. Not to mention the constant manipulation, unintentional or not. Rachel says throughout the game "that's not the Chloe I know." She doesn't even know who Chloe is, but what Chloe wishes herself to be--and what Rachel wants to be as well. You see the point here?
its 2020 and im still here lmao,, OK so,, im pretty sure rachel loved chloe the same way chloe loved her (the people who says that rachel was just using chloe can choke btw), i mean its kinda obvious with all of their interactions throughout the game, and the way they're always trying to protect each other,, the way she looks at chloe and those shit,, and im thinking that if there's anyone rachel is possibly using its frank,, maybe she used frank for money or for drugs idk,, or sure, maybe she truly loved him but that idea kinda seems farfetched,, im really hoping that we could get an explanation if not a game through rachel's pov right from the firewalk concert up to the day she left arcadia bay,, it would be fun to dive into the mind of rachel amber someday ://
It’s her “rolling dice” because that’s like representative of how Rachel is just coming up with all of these lies on the spot and they’re randomized, just like rolling dice.
The saddest here is chloe... Shes like on the universe wanted list, her dad died days before max left, max left and lost all contact, rachel who she loves gets killed, and in the end she dies to nathan, basically no one is on her side.
i am so impressed with this game's storytelling and it's portrayal of the somewhat toxic relationship between rachel and chloe. the highs are so high that you almost don't notice all the red flags - how chloe seems confused and very out of her comfort zone all the time, how you can never tell if chloe's doing something because she wants to, or because rachel wants to, how intense their feelings are from the very first second, how eager chloe is to change herself to keep rachel, how rachel's mood is absolutely unpredictable and what terrible consequences saying something she won't like has. the tempest scene which chloe and rachel perform together says so much about the two of them - chloe asking for her liberty and rachel denying, asking chloe to run away with her. but then you've got the look in rachel's eye when she sees chloe at school, even though they've only seen each other once before, them listening to music together on the train, her performance in the tempest, how she acted after the show... the good moments are so fucking good you almost forget how shitty she makes you feel the other half of the time. the good moments are so fucking good you choose to ignore the bad times, because you can't bear to miss the next good one. there's something truly magical about rachel amber
@@erisnixx7404 the only problem is I think Max's old version was better... She looks like she has permanent eyeliner all around her eyes. Absolutely love Chloes glow up though especially in the first game, she looks gorgeous especially with her blue hair.. like I can't get over it
Ellie T Rachel wasn’t selfish. Chloe was going along with it out of her own free will. Rachel didn’t treat Chloe like a toy. Rachel didn’t do it maliciously to hurt her.
@@Lilothestitch yes she was. She risked chloes life by asking here to help her find her mother, even if she knew it was risky (she knew chole woundt say no). She played with both chloe and franks feelings to get what see want. The one she really liked was jefferson and he killed her..
There was something going on with Frank and Rachel. Rachel hid this from chloe. Everytime you see frank tries to save Rachel. And even in Life is Strange Chloe and Max find pictures of Frank and Rachel together and some love letters. There is so much hidden stuff. Hope I get to know why... She even says Frank in the not "You are the only one i trust" Breaks my heart because Chloe didnt know whats happening with her....
When everyone gushes over Rachel who literally did nothing but treat Chloe like crap, throw dramatic hissy princess tantrums and put Chloe in harms way just to get what she wanted. MEANWHILE, hate on Max who LITERALLY created a tornado of death because she messed up time and reality so bad doing nothing but trying to save Chloe's life. >.> LIke really?....I'll take a Max over Rachel anyday lol
