The fact that through all the conversations, Emily left first with mark waiting in case she wanted to talk more but in the last one mark left first which is kind of symbolic to the fact that he’s done waiting for her/putting effort into their relationship: he knows that it is ruined and nothing else can be done

I replayed the game recently, and "Emily is Away" has always had a profound effect on me due to it echoing parts of my own life, though I understand that it was trying to teach lessons I had already learned it still felt like a gut punch whenever the main character was clearly thinking too much into the past. Listen, if you have these feelings understand that they can and will take over your life if you let them. Nostalgia is a hell of a drug, and I had been addicted to it for years before I realized I had a problem. I know this is a comment on a 4-year-old vid, but hey if you come across this I hope I helped.

the last chapter was just hard for me to play, because as so many other ppl do i relate to the main character. he’s putting in so much effort, and emily is just tolerating it. and it gets to the point where they’re talking like it’s an interview, the mc asking emily questions while she gives terribly blunt answers that show she clearly doesn’t care anymore. i know how painful it is for someone who was once close to you to slowly lose that feeling for you, while you’re running in place just wishing things could be like they were before.

[@letsalllovelean478]

The worst thing is that the player does everything in their power to help Emily. Listening to her woes, skipping plans to hang out with Emily, putting their feelings to the side to make Emily happy, it all makes it more heartbreaking when she just doesn't care in the end. She goes to the player when she and Brad are apart, but when she gets back with him, she has everything she needs. She doesn't need the player anymore.

Okay. I tried this game and there is what I found the best and reasonable ending enough for me. (Just in my oppinion though.) Since there is no way that the protagonist and Emily will get together, I decide to split them up in the good term possible (at least for me). I shared this in case anyone want the same outcome. This ending includes: - Not being rude to her (i.e. says you like the music), comfort and give her advice about her problem. (One I will suggest - tell her when she vent about her boyfriend that "she not a mess, she just sad and that is okay" instead of jerk about her boyfriend) - If she asks about Emma tell her that "you have a thing for Emma". (she will then asks you the similar question to the one you ask when she told you about Brad/Travis, choose good answer which will be something like "you love/care about Emma" or you like Emma because "how kind/smart she is" not because she is hot.) - If she asks why you don't kiss her, say something like "you didn't know how she felt"/"don't want to screw thing up". Don't say that she should make a move or told you that she want to kiss. - ***THIS IS IMPORTANT*** if she asks whether she can come to visit, chooses to let her come but "only as long as it as a friend", "don't let her bring any alchohol" and choose to "talk to Emma about it". This way you will not accuse of planned to hook up with her or left her when she broke down (which neither of them make you character sound like a good person in my oppinion). Instead she will ask if you have feeling for her at that time and if you do why there is nothing happend. She will say something like she think if the path between you two will ever cross it will be that time. From this point choose whatever choice you prefer, but wisely if you don't want to ruin this outcome. (**Keep in mind** that you must only choose to straight out the boundaries limit from the start if you want this outcome. Or else, even you only choose to hang around campus & no alcohol, somehow you both magically hook up eventually) - *Extra* : If she asks about Mike, tell her "He is okay" (you will then justadd that he more focus on his study now). If she asks about Emma in chapter 4, choose you "still hangout with her sometime" and "want to be more than friend"(or "you both maybe more than friend", it works both way) and in Chapter 5 about how your crush with Emma, choose "not great.." (you will explain that "she still feels weird about Emily came to visit") at least this way it will not state clearly like other ending that Emma ditch you to start thing up with Mike. I know that some people may suggest to score both Emma and Emily to revenge on her or somthing. Still, in my oppinion, ending this way, at least, is seem more natural and not too hash on the protagonist beacuse you still left with good memory about each other (+ it is like many highschool relationship that you may distance with your friend or your crush eventually, and did't we all loss someone we hold most dear along the way?). And in this scenario, Emily is not too needy and your relationship aren't as toxic as other ending.

It was a collection of "letters" between former lovers, and each had things crossed out that one wanted to say but didn't, but as the letters progressed, more was crossed out and less was said. Even though they both wanted to get back together, they thought the other didn't and thus didn't say what they wanted to, and ended up barely saying anything at all.

as the years pass in the game, you can see emily maturing. like in the last year, she starts capitalising her words and adds more grammar. it adds something into the storyline - as if theyve grown apart. emily can no longer be informal with mark and she continues to live her life. meanwhile mark is still the same and feels comfortable. but the way it was written, it looked like mark had wanted to say something to emily all these years, and emily had waited, and waited for him to say it. but in the last year, she gave up, and mark grew more desperate to say it but he knew emily had moved on. its pretty sad when you run an analysis behind it, it makes the story much more interesting and adds the "juice"

Emily is basically a bitch and/or a girl who makes poor decisions. Like really, one of those friends or crushes that starts out all good, but as time goes, she kind of "takes you for a ride" per say, and wonders why life is so bad akin to the abusive relationship that was hinted strongly in the game. This game is a representation of what it means to have one of those good friends, crushes, or lovers end up slowly developing into someone we don't enjoy or know anymore while you have to sit and kind of be victim of it. I've been through the same ordeal like many with a ex once. She was awesome, and things were starting off good, but then she started changing and showing her colors. By the end of it, I really hated her guts, and she was no longer the person I once knew. Do yourselves a favor, if you have anyone like Emily in your life, cut the ties. That person is far from having their shit together. Because they'll cut ties with you, and it feels better knowing you didn't give them the pleasure of doing it first.

Braid The Fox I played it.. Its not that fun, you can not say what you want to say. That makes it no fun!! I was trying to win her over, but the game is just set up to fail. No matter what!

[@letsalllovelean478]

Revisiting this game seven years later is heartbreaking. A small aspect I noticed is how Emily's behaviours might be a trauma response. That is not to say her behaviour is acceptable, but just a reason why she became who she was in the end. Her relationship with Brad was abusive, and she even says "we argue, but things are really good when he's nice!" or something like that. A lot of victims in abusive relationships will focus on the happy part in order to wish to stay together. They cling onto this hope that their abusers can change. She relies on the player for support for her needs, doing minimal to help the player with their needs. When Brad comes back, her needs are met and she doesn't need the player anymore. And with the title, it's word play for "the one that got away."

I don't care about the end it's just 90 percent of your choices don't change the story which makes me feel like there are false choices and I don't like that. Emily s behavior during the college segment was stupid and hypocritical and I feel like there is no reason for the protagonist to like her. Ditching her for Emma should have been an option. and if it were me, I would have left her to her own devices long ago.
