[All] hot take that’s shouldn’t be so hot

Now that most of the conversation has finally switched from “why Chloe this, why Chloe that” can we all finally please agree that

How many games can we have of this make shift relationship where not everyone chose either

A: some did NOT choose Chloe as a love interest B: chose Chloe over Arcadia bay C: chose Chloe as a love interest but understood at the end of the day THIS ALL WAS IN THE SPAN OF LIKE A MONTH

Like i completely understand they wrote the relationship off but if you really paid attention to the story you get a lot of context clues of whyyyy they separated if she was still alive

For those that chose Arcadia bay over Chloe WHAT DID YOU WANT MAX TO DO wallow over Chloe her whole life???? She made a choice unfortunately it seems it haunts her in more ways than one no matter what you choose

SHE MENTIONS SHE REGRETS OR ATLEAST FEELS BAD about her decision to OFF an ENTIRE TOWN for a “blue haired girl”

I don’t wanna shoot anyone’s boat down but can we please be realistic if this was real life

YOU WILL BE TRAUMA BONDED and most trauma bonded relationships don’t last because they can’t get over it the way they need to in a healthy way

That’s my two cents I’m sorry I honestly can’t see Chloe being much help other than maybe how she was in the comics where they still chose to just be friends who think about each other but know they aren’t good for each other it’s a whole trip….sorry if this offended anyone AND IM sure there are people who can vouch for ways to add her but how many games how much trauma can or should they go through before one or the other gets tired of it

EXAMPLES biggest I can find atleast
