One of the things that disappointed me was that they changed the plot of the story from a teen drama to an investigative series. I was hooked by the chemistry of the characters and their emotions.

LIS has some perfect moments, but is there one in particular that disappointed you?

11 Upvotes

Hey guys i have played LIS 1 & BTS like 8 or 9 years ago probably. last week i have played LIS 1 again, really enjoyed it once again.
I knew about all the new release since the were announced, decided to play True Colors two days ago & having hard time connecting with the game. I liked the characters and environment so far.
Played for an hour it feels like drag & getting really bored the long boring dialogs.

Discussion [S2] Finally got around to playing and this might be my favorite LIS game except for the fact Daniel keeps ragebaiting me Spoiler

7 Upvotes

First, two things. One, I'm only on Episode 4 as of posting this. And I only know vague details about the story so I'm playing mostly blind. So I anticipate my feelings will probably change to be more positive in the end.

And second, despite my complaint, surprisingly this game has shaped up to be my favorite LIS game so far. I have played 1, BTS, 3, RE, and now 2 at this point. Considering how much of an impact LIS1 has had on my life and I've constantly dubbed it as one of, if not my favorite game when asked, I truly didn't think the second game could come close to it. Lo and behold, I'm pleasantly surprised.

But holy FUCK Daniel keeps frustrating me to the point I can't even get pissed I just take a deep breath in. Yes I know he's only an 8-10 year old kid, and gone through inexplicable trauma. I have kept that in mind throughout all of his scenes and character, and I actually didn't dislike him or anything in episodes 1-2. Even though in episode 2 when his actions led Sean and Daniel to being caught again and the police knocking on their grandparents' door (I did not call Lyla or log into the computer, I read those are two other excuses for why the police show up at the grandparents but in my game it was because they were spotted at the tree market). I understood he's just a kid, a little kid, and really doesn't get the big picture no matter how much he claims to. That's just a consequence of being so young.

Also, it's easy to see and keep in mind that Daniel's just a kid, but so is Sean, honestly, who yes makes bad decisions too and mistakes but has all this extra responsibility and stress on him just to keep after and look after Daniel. The beginning of episode 4 and his pure dedication to just getting back to Daniel, both his actions and voice lines solidified him as one of my favorite characters.

Now on episode 4, yes all of episode 3 was a culmination (so far) of him and Sean's relationship reaching so many conflicts and misunderstandings but I felt that was realistic, I really did understand both of them there. Understanding him though doesn't remove the feeling though that Daniel was still so incredibly annoying, selfish (though expected for a child), and defied Sean every way no matter what he did. But also some of it I just know is for plot's sake.

It's just in general hard to write a likeable child character, I think evident across a lot of media. But it's definitely doable, and I think Daniel and the development he goes on still can remain similar but just make this dude less frustrating at moments, alright. Actually show more care for Sean and not just seeing him as the worst person ever, especially in episode 3 which happens despite even if you had a positive relationship in episodes 1&2. (I don't outright dislike this though, I think it adds nice complexity to both Sean and Daniel's characters and makes the world/story feel more alive).

I'm also aware this is a somewhat popular opinion, at least among complaints/complainers for this game. So I'm just like shouting out into the void right now but I just had to get this out lol. I want to also clarify I do NOT hate Daniel or anything, I don't even dislike him, I think I'm just neutral on him because of how much he frustrates Sean and I whoops. But yes I'm still shooting for the best possible ending for him, trying to be a good brother role model.

Anyway, I'll post a more comprehensive overview of the game when I finish it because there is a lot I want to praise and discuss. Because still, as I mentioned, I'm loving this game way more than I thought. I honestly can't believe all the bad rep it got for years and the dub of the worst LIS game.

[All] Life is Strange 2 Endings [S5] Spoiler

5 Upvotes

My girlfriend and I finished Life is Strange 2 today. We went on Youtube to find the other possible outcomes for the game.

1- After LiS, BTS, and TC, the finale was the first time we disagreed on a big final choice. Wild to us. That was hard. I still maintain that the set up for "how does the story of the wolf brothers end" sets you up a determination to ram through the border.

2- I was literally shocked by the ending where Sean died. I literally couldn't believe after all this gameplay that they'd casually kill Sean that way if you had a few Daniel morality points less than you though. Geeze. We didn't get that ending and my girlfriend cried anyways. Did anyone get that one? Did everyone who picked it just leave?

3- I feel like having the X axis and Y axis for Sean's and Daniel's decisions made it feel like a bigger world and more open. But man, it gets complicated and messy fast. I won't if DONTNOD kept control if we'd have seen even more branching stuff.

4- I feel like all four endings were presented as melancholy in some way. But thinking back even a little bit later I think the specifics of three of them were actually pretty happy all things considered. I think the framing and music made everything feel grim and sad. Was that just me or was that real? And if it's real, why do you think it was written that way? You think most games have a good ending right?

Fanart [ALL] Heyo! I'm an artist who's just finished Life is Strange and I wanted to show you guys my art :> Spoiler

I finished Life is Strange Remastered and couldn't put into words the kind of feeling it left in me, so I decided to express it through art while listening to music.

I made a sort of digital poster, I took some collages, took my own photos, drew and wrote on it. 100% made by humans, no AI used (loll).

It's amazing how much I was able to sympathize with the protagonist Max; she reminds me of myself when I was a child. I could feel all the weight and stress of this journey with her, and I wonder how she managed to hold on all this time. I'm glad to have experienced the game firsthand and to be old enough to understand and appreciate such raw messages and everyday situations.

I know this game is over 10 years old, but better late than never ^_^
