Pretty sure it's just the religious use of the term 'sister'. Besides, if Alessa had actually had a sibling of any sort, I'm sure we'd have heard about them to no end.

My thread's deteriorating faster than Walter's sanity.

Take the sister argument to SH3 board :)

^Very true. 'Pologies.

Considering how much Gans loves SH, he probably tried in the initial stages to keep the storyline true to the game. However, the audience is the ultimate critic. Who would be prepared to see that a mother was not only willing to sacrifice her daughter like that, but set the whole thing up herself? No, the public would not like that at all, and the movie would hardly be considered worth the money to make it. No studio would go through with it.

Though I agree, it would have been nice to stick closer to the story, I see why it was done, and (begrudgingly) accept it.

Victimizing Dahlia killed the character....personally, another reason for me to hate the movie. :?
Value your failures more than your successes. Successes only last until someone screws them up. Failures are forever. She left...and...I'm lost.
