    This action will have consequences. That’s what the little butterfly tells me as I make my way through my annual(ish) replay of Life Is Strange. “Will it really though?” I find myself thinking. While I might save Kate Marsh this time around, or manage to keep Victoria out of Mark Jefferson’s clutches, it always boils down to a single choice in the end: Bay or Bae?Videogames have gotten ver... more.
