9. Chloe Price - Life Is Strange

This death made me hella sad.

Chloe Price was extremely close with her father growing up, but her entire life was shattered after he was killed in a car crash when she was just 14. After her best friend Max moved away, she felt completely abandoned. Upon Max's return five years later to their hometown of Arcadia Bay, Oregon, we discover that Chloe's new best friend, Rachel, is missing.

Max, upon witnessing Chloe's murder, discovers that she can rewind time, and begins to use and abuse her powers to rewrite history and uncover the mystery behind Rachel's disappearance. Altering the timeline so significantly has extreme effects of the world around them, with Max having constant visions of a cataclysmic storm just off the coast of Arcadia Bay.

Just a few days after discovering her powers, despite solving the mystery behind Rachel's abduction/murder, the hurricane is on top of their hometown, and there is only one way of stopping it: going back in time and allowing Chloe to be murdered.

Of course, you can choose to save Chloe, but this results in the entire town being wiped out and everyone you know dying. Chloe understands this and urges you to save the town and everyone that lives there.

Rest in peace, Chloe.

Pricefield for life.
