I just recently played this game and I actually really loved it, but your comment about Sam stealing the valuables in the house really hit me. All through playing the game I was wondering 'what's going on with these VCRs and such being disconnected from the TVs?' because over and over you see these unconnected plugs where there should be an electronic of some sort. It does seem like Sam must have taken them, because as far as I'm aware that wasn't really explained specifically.

However, she didn't take any of the televisions or other valuables that I saw - the clocks, safes, etc were all untouched even when the combinations were just kind of laying around.

I didn't consider it the pinnacle of video game writing, but I'm more of a solitary gamer and don't run in a lot of gamer circles where people would be talking about this. I played it because I saw a couple good reviews and I got some money for the holidays. But as for the reality or personality traits thing, I don't know, teenagers are fucking idiots - especially about relationships. And the game is set in what, 1994? While things were progressing toward gay relationships at that time, it was still a very difficult situation to be in (my brother had the exact same 'this is a phase' reaction from our parents but SHOCKINGLY remains gay to this day, and also had a hard time in high school even though he graduated in 1999). It doesn't mean that these young girls aren't risking their futures to be with each other, but I think it would be very easy for young lesbians to think they might not ever find another person to be with. Combine with the whole young love thing, and it's even more believable. But lots of teens go through these kind of stupid decisions and still manage to survive, so I didn't have such a bleak outlook about what might happen to them.

Technically the combos weren't lying around. You piece them together, and as far as I remember, there are only two combos, right? The first is Sam's, the second is Oscar's (which she already knew about).

Regardless, it's hinted she stole her mother's jewelry, and, worst of all, the $999 Laserdisc her father was reviewing that didn't even belong to him.
