Well Emily was annoying in the first game, so I went into this not taking her too seriously after her personality was revealed to be similar in this game, but then she went from annoying whiney and self-absorbed to jealous and friend-wrecker, although if a "strong" friendship can be broken so easily from someone you only just met, then I guess how strong was that friendship in the first place?

The first game in this series was more of a nostalgia trip to when things like this happened to everyone. This installation is much more of a thought experiment, and really shows how one person can change so much in your life in such a short period of time, for better and for worse. I guess the moral is choose who you consider close carefully? But damn if its not painful whatever happens. A great game and very well done to convey what the developer wanted, however I think the thing emily chose in my final chapter was quite weak and easily explained away for a "life-long" "super close" friend.
