Superposition: The Genre of Life is Strange

I decided to play this because of this video (I stopped watching a few minutes in and immedietly got the game). So now I've finished it and watched the video in its entirety. I've not seen or read any other critiques but a key issue I had is that Chloe isn't particularly likable in the beginning. She's entitled and arrogant, as if the world revolves around her, and never takes personal responsibility. She's also manipulative and displays classic abusive patterns so often Max can't say ANYTHING right. Somehow, Chloe uses it to throw back at her or hold against her as a 'bad friend'. I get that Chloe's dad died and shortly afterwards, Max moved away. But Max was fifteen. And it's a modern world. Relationships take two. It was terrible Max never called or wrote, but neither did Chloe. And when Chloe berates Max for not visiting all I'm thinking is: Well, how? She was a teenager. She couldn't afford a plane ticket or just do a road trip on a whim, could she? But then, things shift. Because I repeatedly didn't put up with Chloe's manipulative crap (Dealt with that enough with actually people I've chosen to cut out of my life), she starts taking personal responsibility. She starts thinking about how HER choices affect people around her, instead of always complaining as if life is personally out to get her. And it works really well because, at the end, when faced with the choice that isn't a choice, it's truly Chloe who makes it. Which is so interesting because if you choose NOT to sacrifice Chloe, it's like the two characters have swapped roles and Max has become the selfish entitled one who chooses what she wants with no regard for how it will affect others.
