6 Dumb Video Game Protagonists Not Known for Their Smarts
Chloe Price (Life is Strange)
Chloe Price is a character with plenty of depth and emotional complexity, but that doesn’t mean she hasn’t had her moments of stupidity.
In addition to getting in deep with a drug dealer, Chloe regularly makes hot-headed decisions that have lasting ramifications on her life.
Case in point: She gets herself thrown out of school so that Rachel Amber can perform in a play, right after Rachel throws herself under the bus for her so that she can stay in school.
The same can be said of her decision to try and save Rachel’s mother without the help of the authorities or any sort of adult figure. Again, touching and speaks to her courage, but a really dumb decision once you think about it.
This is all to say nothing of her actions in the main game, where choices like shooting a junked out car’s steel bumper force her friend Max to rewind time so she doesn’t die from a ricocheted bullet to the gut.
