    Comparing this to EP1 this is a HELLA boring bad fanfiction, cutscenes are boring nearly empty, uninteresting,most of the soundtrack was not really fit for them useless,bad dialogs from chloe,(drew this, drew that, mikey this,mikey that,) the voice acting is bad, its strange because episode1 voice acting,dialogs,soundtracks was great in episode1.

In this episode chloe was more similar to Max Caulfield in both action,personalitie, and voice acting, than real chloe was.
    NPCS(school teens) are boring, and uninteresting, Especially eliot and samantha both of it just irritating, one is always want to climb me, and the other one is a superhero saveer wanna be girl The Tempest was bad, all i could say WHEN ITS gonna be END!?. The game need to focus more Chloe and rachel story just two of them together on a trip and adventures like the first episode was! Episode 2 was boring and dissapointment! There is no plot twist at all, no more shocking endings at aleast we got RAVEN our side, i like the nightmares, and the RAVEN!    … Expand

    Everything from the first episode is still here; the writing, the direction, the audio-visual style, the great character development, and, of course, the feels. Unfortunately, it's not the same game, for the simple fact that it doesn't really care about pushing the story forward, which is a shame as the next chapter is actually the very last one.

    In "Brave New World" we manage to get a real glimpse of the unique and magical relationship that Chloe and Rachel shared. These two characters are fleshed out exceptionally, but the episode faces pacing and directional issues, only saved by the emotionally charged finale.

    An honest insight into the tragedy of loss and growth in youth. I'm torn, because I want so much more of Chloe and Rachel — what a beautiful duo — but I know that all good things must end — some sooner than others. This one, as we all know, will be coming to an end too soon. I'm just not sure I'm emotionally ready for it.
