Prediction:

* Bay ending will be canon

* Bae ending is canon in the Alternate World but Max and Chloe broke up.

* Chloe will be a surprise reveal in Alternate World

* Chloe will be hostile to Max but Max will be like, "Oh my god, you're alive!"

* Chloe and Max will have broken up because Max couldn't live with the guilt of killing so many people for Chloe's survival, including Chloe's mom

* Max and Chloe will have the option of a relationship but it won't be necessary

* The ending will allow more video games of the pair solving crimes across the Multiverse.

I just want to know if the comics are going to tie-into this game or not cause they're actually really interesting IMO as they deal with the whole Multiverse thing and this game is exploring parallel worlds.

I don't have anywhere else to say this, but it kind of annoys me how one of the game's endings is basically what I would have done at the beginning of the game. Let the unstable violent guy shoot the girl and not time travel to prevent it.

I suppose murder by inaction is something they felt would be out of character.

Well, I guess, but it seems to me to be basically going:

Player: "I dunno, maybe I should think about the implications of using time travel to stop this guy"
Game: "Don't worry about it! It's totally fine!"
[Hours later]
Game: "Time travel has consequences you dolt!"
Player: ...

Eh, on the other hand, Spider-Man has taught me that if you DONT use your powers then your Uncle Ben will die.

So everyone without an uncle named Ben is fine? Or are you arguing that everyone who doesn't have an uncle named Ben, has superpowers but never used them?

I'm saying that Max using her powers is what a person should do if someone is about to die.

Which admittedly is why the ending of the game is bullshit.

Not if using those powers leads into an even worser situation.
