Few video game friendships are rendered with the depth and complexity of Chloe and Max in Life Is Strange. 

For while Chloe can be a challenging presence at times and her friendship with Max had its many bumps, there's no denying her love for Max - whether you kept the duo friends or made them something more.

After Max returns to Arcadia Bay, she rekindles her former bond with Chloe, the pair providing enormous comfort to one another through thick and thin. And yet, the rebellious Chloe will still keenly call out Max when needed.

Were Chloe not such a great friend, the game's crushing final dilemma wouldn't be so agonising - to either sacrifice Chloe's life or leave Arcadia Bay to be destroyed by the incoming storm.

Regardless of what you personally chose, Chloe's life is marred by tragedy, which only makes her all-encompassing friendship with Max that much more powerful.
