>>477313945Truly, we LiSers are the most oppressed of all anons
Test
Why the last thread was archived so early?
>>477315858Not sure, it died before even an hour had passed. That's freakishly fast for /vg/
Life is Banana or Still dead
>>477316459Or fogorten(I'm a silly banana)
>>477316396Hope it doesn't happen again. For saftey, lets keep posting shit and arguing about either the new upcoming LiS game or what to expect from Lost Records.
>>477317143All right, lemme start a flame war: I think the dude thirsting over Nora is setting himself up for massive disappointment.
>>477318407That's some spicy take, but I would like to see you elaborate further, anon. It's a bit obvious that at least Nora and Swann are very obviously based on Max & Chloe's templare, but they seem to have some crucial differences that will set them apart greatly.
>>477319395Mostly I just think with the details currently so sparse, you(or he) are projecting the way you think of Max and Chloe to characters we barely know yet.
Once again, I am asking for a girlfriend for a front tooth gap.
>>477321912Godspeed
>>477323165What True Colors was missing was Steph and Alex in PJs.
>>477326219The color of Steph's panties shall forever mystify me...
Stop dying.
>>477327809But it's hard
>>477330536Especially when things keep moving so fast.
Uhh...hella pancakes?
>>477341314Yum.
I'm a little worried about the thread surviving overnight. /vg/ feels faster than usual and we're in a lull.
>>477346252We'll just have to pray for a hella miracle. Or some sudden news to drop in the middle of the night
>>477349879I still do wish Deck Nine can give Chloe and Max a better design after a decade. Expecially the black scribble looking tat, it looks ugly as hell.
>>477355768Warren x Kate always made more sense to me than Marshfield.
>>477355735I'd expect it to be filled in with new tattoos over time and not just stay blank.
How many of all y'all have ever had a pet bunny here?
>>477356524Hell yeah. I can totally see Chloe getting new tats around her body to represent the changes in her life.
>>477367590Never got one, I prefer cats.
>>477355937a redditor atheist sciencebro and a bullyable christian girl? how could that work
>>477370870Sexy cat
>>477372640God must be a real grade A asshole to punish Kate by pairing her with Warren
>>477372640She can fix him
>>477359210Captain Spirit was a lot more interesting with its premise than the whole of LiS2. Also, I realized how well it could have worked if Chris and his dad were afroamerican, it could have tied to the whole plot of the dead mother as a ploy to cover up some police brutality incident by the local forces.
>>477355937Ehh, no. I could totally see them being friends, though. This is why Kate needs character expansion. I'd love to see more of the pre-bullying (to say nothing of pre-kidnap) Kate, the one that was a happy, well-adjusted if a bit naive, and good person. We only really see her at her lowest, and even then that sunshine personality peeks through.
You keep dying.
Will YOU allow the thread to die again?
Alice.
>>477396975Is cute and cuddly. As is her sister, and the Marsh girls.
>>477397995Lynn is probably gonna be the tallest of the lot. She's almost Kate height at age 10 and has blue eyes (like her very tall dad), as opposed to green (like her much shorter mom).I imagine she'd be pushing 6' or even over as an adult. Chloe would probably lampshade this in the mandatory Pricefield homage scene in that Lynn and Kate centered Life Is Strange sequel set in 2023 that does not exist outside my fantasies.
>>477412619>AI upscale of an already existing imageGross
I was thinking about how close we are to the Summer Games Fest, and how close we might have a reveal for the new LiS game Deck Nine is working on.IMO we should check for when the new game trademark is going to be registered before the trailer is up, or check out listings on major seling sites.
>>477419687Why are slightly parted lips with the two front teeth showing always the go to for AI hot women?
>>477423784It's a go-to in photography to show off a woman's sex appeal, so naturally AI gets countless examples of it when scraping data.
>>477426258It is very sexy, I won't take that back.
>>477426592I can kind of see the appeal, but for me it's big happy grins.
>>477426258I believe all AI "artists" should die and go to hell
>>477433253I agree, I'm just stating how it works.
>>477433253You can't stop what's coming
AI still can't 100% recognize Alex's existence.
>>477441606still what a cutie
>>477433253AI artists should be with Rachel, You mean?
>>477441606lol yeah, that's not even close.

>>477484770Angels on our shoulders.
I don't know what Chloe was bitching about.We have photographic evidence that Max had been back to the Bay recently to play pirates with her.Another thing never fixed in the remaster
>>477492776I think the AI might've gotten a bit confused there on the emblems and symbols...
>>477501180The remasters felt like such a waste. Nothing was changed, and some things were worse.
>>477501180I'd happily pay full price for a complete Resident Evil Remake style rebuild of the first game. Rework the story to work better, add 75% more gay. The ability to actively tell Warren he's a creepy simp and you will Never have any interest in him.
>>477510830>Rework the storyThe story should not be touched>Warren he's a creepy simpHe's not>tell Warren you will Never have any interest in himNo need to do it, he knows his place
>>477511912The main beats sure, but all the cut stuff about the occult and conspiracy needs to come back.
Imagine the TV show is a redo of the first game, but reintroduced the Prescotts as the primary villains - and Sean is a time traveler just like Max.
>>477515106>>477515106>but all the cut stuff about the occult and conspiracy needs to come backAdd that and you have BTS level story driven by mediocre bullshit like >>477518167>Prescotts as the primary villainsand that they somehow runs the storm.The first game stands out because the script is tight and doesn't go any of those directions. Some things should never be explained. And sometime the storm is just the storm and dead bitch is just the dead bitch
>>477510830Don't be mean. Warren is a nice boy.
>>477527751A smart thing that could be done would be to implement small parts of Before the Storm as flashbacks into the main narrative when talking about Rachel from Chloe's perspective, but then having the same scenes played out from different perspective once more stuff about her relationships with Frank and Jefferson comes out
>>477518167As of right now, the LiS tv show are on hold at D12, which is under Amazon Prime. Considering their latest video game TV show adaptation of a videogame (Fallout) has been quite a big hit, I could see some execs maybe thinking it could be feasible to greenlight a live action show. After all, LiS already has the "established franchise" tick and can be cathered to a 13ReasonWhy/Euphoria teen audience easily.
>>477527751I think Sean as an antagonistic time traveler could be an interesting twist to retell the story, because he could be the endpoint of Max abusing her powers: someone who's carefully ordered Arcadia Bay exactly the way he wants it through trial and error, and become an untouchable little god until Max throws a wrench in it all. He blames her for the Storm, but it's muddled whether maybe HE caused it, or it was a long time coming before either of them got involved. But either way, Max comes to realize she can never set things back the way they're meant to be, because actions done cannot be undone, and so she tears up the photo of the butterfly and lets the Storm hit, freeing the town, Chloe and her from Sean.
>>477531093A nice dead boy

>>477599150What's the problem?
>>477596561Truly cursed, but I want more.
>>477580708I feel sorry for all the people laid off, at the same time this might be a change in a slighty better direction for Square, and maybe even give their developers like Deck Nine (and by that the LiS franchise as a whole) better breathing room and more freedom.
>>477617893Wait a minute
>>477617893I really dislike this AI generated crap, wish we could have more human made fan arts
I'm writing an autofiction slice-of-life fanfiction romance story between myself and Max. Does anyone have any ideas for what should happen?
>>477612354Hopefully, but Square hasn't been known for sensible decisions lately.
>>477617893Well I mean it is one way to explain why Kate would suddenly grow bigger boobs...
>>477617893Who is the father?
>>477630949Max is right there, doofus
>>477631180Jesus blessed them with a gaybaby because he's into that shit.
>>477510830>add 75% more gayDamn right. By far my favorite parts of LiS 1 were those moments where Chloe and Max were just hanging out.I also just do not like how ambiguous their relationship is and that its physical height is a quick peck done on a dare. In my ideal LiS 1 remaster/rebuild, we would get Chloe and Max going on one or two actual dates together. Them sitting on that lighthouse bench, in that golden afternoon light, tearfully embracing each other and just opening up on their true feelings for each other is something I have wanted out of this franchise for close to a decade now. To me it really feels like the Chloe/Max relationship only ended up progressing like ~15% as far as it should have given the time, circumstances and personalities involved.I would also just like more openness regarding sexuality in general. Since I have always had the impression that they were cagey about progressing queerness much beyond subtext and innuendo in LiS 1. It also just opens up good narrative opportunities. I mean, it would make perfect sense for someone like Chloe to be very aware of her sexuality, and yet still be closeted due to living with a person like David. This could even be another vector of hostility between them.>The ability to actively tell Warren he's a creepy simp>you will Never have any interest in himAs cathartic as this would be. He should just be cut all together. As it is, he is just a late addition included so as to not alienate hets.The story is about Chloe and Max, he has no natural place in that. While I think there is room for player choice in elements of their relationship together, I think that choice should always be within the wider framework of them being two girls who have very strong feelings for each other and on some level would like to be in a relationship with each other. The barriers here should be forgiveness, trust, safety and emotional openness; Not some random creepy incel stalker that fancies himself a white knight.
>>477630949Warren.
>>477532530>and can be cathered to a 13ReasonWhy/Euphoria teen audience easilyTechnically yes. But I think the best way to capitalize on that audience would not be with a direct adaptation of LiS 1. I think the better course here would be to re-imagine the world of LiS 1.Keeping most characters, plot beats and the general setting intact. But reworking things so that it flows better as a slower paced drama. The pacing of LiS 1 would just never work as is for a TV show.I think this also allows for some interesting changes, such as Steph and Chloe still going to Blackwell when Max starts. Maybe even have Rachel still be alive and have her disappearance be the stinger for the end of episode 1.>>477555219Crimson and Clover.Over and over>>477630949>>477631180For whatever reason in a Max/Kate pairing, I imagine Max would probably be the one with something extra. And even then it is somewhat of a toss up.But with Pricefield, it just has to be Chloe. Something about her aesthetic, personality and voice acting radiates what I guess you could class as 'big dick energy' to me. Something that I think holds true regardless of if it is biological or synthetic.
>>477642663>But with Pricefield, it just has to be Chloe.For me, it's Max with a slightly below average size that Chloe is still completely enraptured with and loves to encourage Max over, to eternal embarrassment.
>>477313843No
This is how Chloe sees Max when she's doing all her time altering heroics.
>>477642663>Maybe even have Rachel still be alive and have her disappearance be the stinger for the end of episode 1That wouldn't work as well with the context of the mistery behind her actions and disappearance. But I do agree on the rest, expecially if the story is being adapted within the structure of a eight or ten episodes series with a 60 to 45 minutes runtime each. And if there's someone passionate, they could expand side characters roles like Kate or Alyssa.
>>477656402The real question is if Max would be the only viewpoint character, and how they'd frame other people's side stories. And how would Max's thoughts in her journal be conveyed to the audience? A lot of people find narration corny these days.
>>477656201I'd love to see Chloe and Max at pride, they'd love it.No drugs, tho. Bad.
>>477660897>if Max would be the only viewpoint characterKeeping Max as the single perspective made sense within the video game medium, but in a TV show adaptation it gets a bit trickier since you are a passive viewer rather than an active player. We could have Max still being the main character but also have small parts in which we focus on Chloe, David or Victoria as characters. >And how would Max's thoughts in her journal be conveyed to the audience?You could show her writing stuff in a scene, and maybe translating some of the more direct thoughts into new dialogue sections with other characters.
>>477664514Chloe is literally already a pothead
>>477645727That is a painfully cute dynamic anon. I admit I would love to see that expanded into a wholesome SoL fanfic.Not how I imagine things, but still super cute.

>Summer Games Fest is in June>June is pride month>LR presentation and LiS 3 reveal are basically confirmed for Games Fest at this pointI am going to be so mad if the marketing teams at DN or Square do not take advantage of this. What a golden opportunity to market very queer games and some merch to go along with them.I would happily settle for something as basic as Nora's cringy wolf shirt or one of Max's shirts, slightly reworked to include the sunset flag colors. Even if just in a band around one of the sleeves.>>477780235>they could come up with some magnificently malevolent schemesI could see an AU where Chloe gets the help of Victoria with all manner of goofy, comedic plots to get the new girl Chloe has a massive crush on (Max) to notice her. Likely all culminating in Max feeling enough second-hand embarrassment for Chloe, to get over her own shyness and just directly ask Chloe out herself.>>477865896Best Kate ship. I don't care what anyone says.
>>477863568Is Max around in this?
>>477881614I need a new Jane Doe shirt anyway, this would be a good opportunity.
>>477883258Probably not. Max is, honestly, one of the easiest people to take out of any AU, since it only requires Max going literally anywhere other than Blackwell.
>>477888483While true, and it can be interesting to explore the dynamics without her, people treat Max as way too superfluous to the setting when she's practically integral.
>>477893625Oh, absolutely. Absent Max leaves you a very different story, but that's kind of the point of AU. "What if Max never returned to Arcadia Bay, but also Chloe met a closet-gay Kate in 2010 instead of Rachel?" is a perfectly valid and interesting way to start an AU, look at how that might change things one way or another.unfortunately, a well-written fanfic of that premise seems to not exist, so far, or if it does I haven't managed to find it.
>>477893625>>477896443I would argue that Max is more integral to Chloe then most people give her credit for.It is pretty clear that Chloe was on some level pretty damn obsessed and infatuated with Max since she was at-least 16 (realistically, likely for several years predating this), with one of the big reasons why she ends up on such a bad path and associating with human garbage like Rachel is due to her feelings of being abandoned by Max just when she needed her the most. I really think people are far to quick to dismiss Max from Chloe's life and write her off as just being a mostly superfluous factor that can be replaced by any random gay girl. I personally do not see any scenario where Chloe is happy and stable without Max not only in her life, but in an active relationship with her.'Soulmates' is a term that I think tends to be very overused. But I really do think it is absolutely true when it comes to Chloe and Max. They just cannot be whole without each other. Both LiS 1 and BtS consistently show that the very worst suffering always happens when they are separated. Chloe and Max are made for each other in a way that is not seen in any other ship and cannot just be substituted without devaluing Max and ignoring her specific importance to Chloe.>>477885116A new Jane Doe shirt with a sunset flag flair to it would be nice. Max's deaths-head moth shirt or even Chloe's snake tank from ep 5 would also really pop with a sunset element on them.
>>477897535And yet, if the paths of the two were to never meet again for whatever reason, that's an AU right there. A story need not be all happy rainbows and sunshine to be good; as I said above, I'd love to see where a sort of "middle road" would lead. Rachel was not leading Chloe into a good place, and Max is ideal, but what about Kate? Not the soulmate, but a ridiculously good person as a friend and lover, and where that might lead.>>477859668Or, y'know, this done well could be p. cool. Realistically I see the two of them happening even less than Pricemarsh, but the "only gay girls around" scenario alone could be interesting enough to explore.
>>477900171>that's an AU right thereI'm obviously not disputing that. I'm just saying that I think people discard Max far to quickly; As if she were totally interchangeable with any random gay girl. All I'm saying is that there is an inherent importance that Max specifically has to Chloe. That a relationship Chloe would have with Max is fundamentally different from a relationship she would have with any other girl.I absolutely do not have a problem with AU ships involving Chloe and someone other then Max (I personally absolutely love the AU scenario of Chloe getting into a loving, supportive, openly gay relationship with Steph rather then ever getting involved with Rachel). I just don't consider Max to be an interchangeable and fundamentally disposable person in Chloe's life, that being the sort of vibe I tend to get from most non-Max Chloe ships.>but what about Kate?Kate's parents borderline disowned her for a video where she was apparently just making out with some random guys. How do you think they would react if they found out she was in a relationship with a girl?Kate is a nice girl and I agree that a closeted Kate is an interesting scenario. But with all of the shit that Chloe had going on in her own life, I do not think she would be able to really give Kate to sort of support she would need to not have a breakdown over the idea of news of her actual sexuality possibly getting back to her family.For that to work, I think Kate would need someone rather emotionally strong, self assured, capable of taking charge in a relationship and just generally able to be her emotional rock. Basically I think the best match for a closeted Kate would be an openly gay and somewhat sexually aggressive Victoria. Someone gentle enough to help her out of the closest, while also being strong enough to hug her and make every problem in the world just melt away in an instant.
>>477903505>That a relationship Chloe would have with Max is fundamentally different from a relationship she would have with any other girl.Agreed here, definitely. Max is a whole different level of important to Chloe. >a closeted Kate is an interesting scenarioThings growing slowly is good, and the "disown" could be a good plot detail, too. Admittedly that's in large parts because I find the idea of Kate adopting elements of Chloe's style and attitude to be incredibly hot.Actually had a story idea of my own revolving around a scenario more or less like that, though God knows if anything ever comes of that.
>>477904682>Max I'm pretty sure the truck was in the other direction

Did the comic pick up at all? Or is it still unfathomably cursed?
>>477950508Got delayed actually, I think the next issue doesn't drop until summer?
>>477956372>Max, I don't think this is weed...
>>477968473I'd read a comic in this artstyle, it's really cute.
>>477974173it literally whitewashes Alex
>>477976878It makes her a little too pale but she's blatantly not white there.
>>477905135You know that you do not have to be in a relationship with someone to adopt elements of their style, right?It is pretty easy to imagine an AU where a closeted Kate decides to come-out to the only openly gay couple at Blackwell; Chloe and Max. Becoming a close friend and eventually adopting elements from Chloe's punk style as an outward manifestation of her rejection of the heteronormative expectations of her family.>>477918498Kate + Victoria is a fantastic ship. It is pure head canon for me, but I have always maintained that the main reason Victoria was such a massive bitch to Kate in particular was because she had a hella gay crush on her.>>477938737I swear that I'm going to start going to coffee shops everyday until I get my own gay LiS wife. That story is still one of my favorite things to ever come out of these threads.>>477950508>>477951737>Did the comic pick up at all?No new issues. The next comic issues and even the novel release all got pushed back until around Summer Games Fest. Another of the big signs hinting at a LiS 3 official reveal around then.>is it still unfathomably cursed?Yes. The next issue I believe is the one that actually shows Kate killing herself. Possibly while Rachel and Chloe make-out in the foreground, since that is the main thing the comic seems to actually care about. Based on what we have seen so far, smart money is still on Max being dead, so in the remaining issues there is still a bunch of room for things to get far more cursed.>>477976878I don't see it. My main criticism of it would be some of Steph's faces if anything.The Steph on the far right is not far off Moon Over June territory.
>>477985372so tru
>>477982207Kate has clearly taken responsibility over Magic School Bus here.>>477985372I'm a sucker for nails painted black and toe rings.But honestly Chloe wearing those boots is by far the most erotic thing in that picture

>>477985372Does Chloe have a thing for Max's feet?
>tfw we never got side-shave native american ChloeI wish I could just peak into the timeline where all of the bizarre ideas from the early concept of LiS 1 made it into the final game.Plus, side-shaves are just objectively the single most attractive hairstyle in existence for tops
>>477996235Was Chloe ever considered as a half native american at some point? I've never heard of this before.
>>477996632Apparently. This was back when Native American mythology was going to play a role in the story. So I assume that Chloe being half native would have tied into things, especially in regards to why Max was given powers to prevent her death specifically.Pretty much all of the Native stuff got cut early on, but you can still find the empty holes in the narrative where it would have fit if you know where to look. I think the last real remnants of it in game are a cut line from Nathan about the storm and Blackwell's spirtpole.A real shame because I think the concept they had for Chloe here was super cute.
>>477997934So you are assuming that Chloe was half native, but it wasn't confirmed nor said by the developers it was the case.

Will we get another Lost Records trailer for the Summer Games Fest? I really hope for a gameplay/demo showcase of some kind, just to have a better idea of how the system as explained in the interviews actually works.
>>478018229I wonder what happened to cause the inverse of life paths.
>>478013727I think we are going to end up with each of the four girls getting their own trailer between now and release. So I would expect another one of them to drop for Summer Games Fest at a minimum. Here's hoping they release Nora's next.I think a showcase for LR is a pretty safe bet, as well as more story focused trailer drop.>>478018229Need more punk Max.
>>478028912And regarding to the new Life is Strange game... the IGN article mentioned it was going to be annouced "pretty soon", so what we could expect from the reveal in June?
>>478030209We're approaching the 10th anniversary of the first game. Maybe, just maybe, they might consider revisiting the first game's cast.
>>478030209I think what they revel and just how in-depth it is (a full presentation vs a trailer), comes down to if they are going to release it this year or not. If it is a Q4 2024 release, then I think we can expect some form of presentation. If it is a Q1 2025 release to sync up with the 10th anniversary then, I would just expect a short reveal trailer like what we got with LR back during last years game awards.Either way I just hope we get some cool new merch out of this. June is not just Games Fest, but also Pride Month after all. Some pride themed LR or LiS 3 merch is probably one of the easiest marketing slam-dunks I can imagine and LiS/LR are one of the few series where it would not come off as just cynical pandering.>>478033812I think it is a very safe bet that LiS 3 is going to be another Chloe/Max game. Even if you discount the leaks, I think Square knows what moves copies and all of the data we have suggests that it is Chloe and Max. The fact that the ten year anniversary is coming up makes it seem like an almost perfect time for them to finally wrap up Chloe and Max's story with a nice bow.
>>478033812What... if the leaks about the game story being set 10 years after LiS1 with Max as a college teacher is partly true, but it was outdated, so now all the story beats that are tied to Max and Chloe have been rewritten to feature new original characters in their place?
>>478035654Yeah, my bet is for the game to be relased between February and March 2025. As for Lost Records, it might relase the first part either November or December 2024 and then the second part in March, if everything goes smoothly.That would mean that the second part of LR might have to compete with the new LiS game, and that might be curious to see.
>>477904682Huh, that's an older set.
>>478045172They probably should have dressed warmer
Secret 3rd ending.
>>478061321Rachel the fag enabler.
>>478061321Bae still seems like the most happy ending for everyone.>>478066670You are making Rachel sound much cooler then she actually was.
>>478067643>You are making Rachel sound much cooler then she actually was.The Rachel that could have been
>>478067643I mean, Chloe and Max finding each other is the important thing. In a world where Joyce didn't have to die and Rachel was able to mature and cut off Chloe's obsession with her, I think that would be pretty golden too.

>>478085910The girls aren't too wacky or fantastical and the settings are grounded. It feels naturalistic in a way and it helps that almost no character is ugly.

>>478101472I loved in the festival that you could physically see how hard Steph was falling for her.
>>47808591099% of lewd LiS stuff is utter garbage. Almost exclusively gross coomer crap for misogynistic incels. The sort of scum that picked Warren if they ever even played the game at all.Artists who buck this trend, like Afterlaughs, are extremely rare.>>478092430I think sacrificing the Bay was the better option, as long as it meant that the demon remained forever sealed in her shallow grave/binding site.>>478119160TC really did such a good job when it came to the relationship between Steph and Alex. One of the reasons I wish the game was longer is so that we could have got more of them just being cute together.>>478121249I really wish there was a good fanfic based around the idea of Chloe staying at Blackwell. I love the idea of both Chloe and Max attending classes together. Maybe even going with each other to prom.
>>478122374>TC really did such a good job when it came to the relationship between Steph and Alex. One of the reasons I wish the game was longer is so that we could have got more of them just being cute together.I love those two, but I do have to give kudos for Ryan. He's an absolute bro with great romance potential; it was the first time in a very long time I saw a straight romance done from the female point of view and done really well. I totally get why Steph won, hell it's not like I disagree. I just think that if I were strictly a straighto, I'd get my money's worth and then some with Luchen.

>>478101857Is that you, Steph?
>>478124726Might choose to romance Ryan in my next TC playthrough.
>>478124726If the gay romance option wasn't Steph from Before the Storm, Ryan would have easily gotten a 50/50 split in choices.
>>478141982Doubtful. Sure it would be closer, but Gay is always the way.

Michel confirms that The Craft is one of the "non game" inspiration for Bloom & Rage
>>478203072I mean, they were all fairly obvious even without confirmation.

>>478217435You're imagining things.
>>478231908Kate has the power of God and Anime on her side
>>478203072>>478203882I think we all called IT and The Craft within minutes of the teaser dropping last year. But I'm happy they have finally confirmed it.I just wonder how exactly The Craft influence will manifest. Max v2 being an outsider to the already established group seems pretty obvious, but I wonder if the actual conflict/danger in the story if going to come from them fucking around with magic.Depending on just how strong that Craft influence is. I hope that we are going to get some freedom as to who we support and just how far that support goes. Something I have always hated about the movie, is that the protagonist didn't smooth things over with Nancy and potentially end up being in a relationship with her.>>478210886I categorically refuse to believe that the dare we see in LiS is the first time they ever kissed. Even just as a dare.
>>478243859Saucy
>>478246482>Something I have always hated about the movie, is that the protagonist didn't smooth things over with Nancy and potentially end up being in a relationship with her.See, I do think part of the similarities with The Craft and Lost Records won't be 100% obvious. People expect that Nora = Nancy due to her similar appearance, but I think it's just a smoskescreen. IMO Kat (the blonde girl) feel like the one who might become the antagonist or at least be possessed by this weird, supernatural force we see in the trailer.
I want to eat Max out
>>478252130Oh I fully agree. While I do not know if Kat will end up getting possessed specifically. I think out of all the girls she has some uniquely bad vibes. Given just how little we know about the story right now, I think her taking on some-sort of antagonist role makes the most sense out of all the theories.I expect Nora will be mostly used as a romance option (honestly, who could resist her charms?) and maybe a fake-out when things start going wrong.I guess what I'm trying to get across here is that The Craft would have been a far better movie if it had committed to a big gay ending with Nancy.

Chaos Theory was released 9 years ago today.
>>478299461the peak
>>478297626Will Chloe keep her safe?
>>478257537We have to consider that this time around they promised a more reactive story branching with how you back and forth between the past and current day events, so maybe your relationship with Nora and how Kat will behave will be affacted by this specific circumstance. But either way, we see in the first trailer that only three of the four (Swann with Autumn and Nora) were running away from something, and Kat was seen briefly screaming at the fire in the woods, she possibly caused it?
>>478299461>>478301274Episodes one, two and four all had their own standout moments. But episode three really was the best of LiS 1.I think my main criticism of it is that retroactively it seems to peak the relationship between Chloe and Max too early. Logically, you would want to write things so that the relationship between Chloe and Max peaks right before before the Junkyard trap and the shock death of Chloe. You want to maximize that impact to not only close out the episode, but to up the stakes going into the last episode and the desire to save Chloe's life again.If I had the ability to rewrite things. I would personally move the pool swim to episode four, after Chloe thinks Nathan has gotten away but before she gets the text that is seemingly from him (lets assume the Vortex Club party is held either off campus or elsewhere on campus). This reworked pool sequence then, would involve an emotionally exhausted Chloe that is no longer able to maintain her strong punk persona. A Chloe that with all of her normal emotional blocks down, tearfully reveals her true feelings for Max. The choices the player has made until this point would determine if Max merely emotionally reassures her or if she opens up with the truth about her feelings for Chloe, with the two passionately embracing each other.Either way, the moment would be interrupted by Chloe getting a text she believes to be from Nathan. Despite the pleading from Max to either get help or to stay where they are (depending on relationship), Chloe's mind cannot be changed. The remainder of the episode plays out as normal.The way things are in the final game, Chloe and Max's relationship is inconsistent and resembles more a generic waveform then a satisfying storytelling arc. The peak of their relationship being a quick kiss done on a dare is also very weak. It makes me wonder what LiS 1 would look like had it not been episodic and Square not been scared of gay physical affection.
>>478299461I'd love to see a remake purely to move the first kiss to the pool. Absolutely simmering with sexual tension.
>>478306929I personally think that episode two would be the best place for the first kiss between them. Especially is it stays the short dare kiss we ultimately got. In terms of opportunities you have, the diner, the 'lair' in the junkyard, after Frank is dealt with and after Max rescues Chloe from the train.The pool scene is filled with sexual tension, but that is why to me it makes sense for a second, more proper kiss/makeout. Not to mention actually providing some space for the girls to get their feelings for each other out in the open, something we never really got in the final game.
Space gays.
>>478274424no fucking way Max could ever get that built, she is as sticc as it can get
>>478319464I headcanon Chasefield Max as being the Alpha Bitch of Blackwell, so she's a little more in shape to keep up appearances. She and Chloe are still lowkey besties but discovered their own sexuality before they reconnected, so Max is with Victoria and Chloe is dating Kate.

That was a close one.

>>478343950Eh, as a serious theory I don't like it. Rachel was a shitty person, but she was a shitty person in the context of a confused teenager making a lot of awful choices, not literal evil.
>>478343950She is a semen demon.
Since that one guy is so insanely obsessed with her...
>>478380129That makes sense.
Payne to the Max!
>>478342468>Septum ring>Another sleeve>Max got some tattoosNow this is a post-LiS look I can get behind. All the more reason for LiS 2 to be declared non-canon. What it did to Chloe is unforgivable.>>478393569Victoria gets the girls.
>>478394345Chloe getting more tattoes all over her as opposed to covering up her iconic sleeve for reasons that have only been explained by the dev on Twitter feel like a better development IMO.
>>478402157Getting more tattoos makes so much more sense for her character, compared to covering up her sleeve. Same deal with keeping her hair blue vs letting it go green and looking like a swamp hag.I'm almost convinced they included that just to spite the people that were vocally disappointed DN wanted the series to be an anthology.
>>478411848My favorite thing about this fake-Polaroid is that the AI just decided to invent a dude with a cool shirt just to have him presumably accidentally and unwittingly photobomb Pricefield. There's no reason for him to be there, and indeed it'd make more sense for him to NOT be there, but the AI went like "You know what? Let's have someone photobomb them."Well that or the person ordering up this picture specified that they should be photobombed by a random dude. But I prefer to assume it's my version, and AI just did that for no reason other than "Why not?"
>>478411848>>478412779It is sort of mind-blowing to me just how well these came out. Especially when it comes to Chloe (I love the more emo, heavy eyeliner take on her in the first picture).But I don't know why it decided to make Max into a trap/femboy from ~07.
>>478420264I'll post the rest from this set when I get home. I wish it was easier to nudge it into this style.
Has someone checked any recent leak or game listings about any possible Life is Strange 4 reference? I think we are getting closer to a full announcement and we should at least have some things gearing up in the background.
>>478425693I'm shocked at the quality difference between something like this and some of the awful commissioned stuff Uber has done. This is obviously not as wholesome as what you would get from someone like Nicefield, but as far as lewd LiS stuff goes, this is gold.I cannot decide if Chloe having black painted nails, Lisa being present or Chloe's facial expression is my favorite part.
Canonically, Max and Chloe probably masturbated together as friends
>>478426860I think that goes without saying anon.Max seems to have basically lived at Chloe's place prior to leaving. They did not spend all that time together playing pirates.
>>478427621>>478426860Yeah, dares and discussing of "weird" things together leads to that.
>>478421105>>478412779Found them.
>>478426860Did Joyce know?
>>478434961Chloe should be taller than Max for domming
>>478433635Well even when they did play pirates, Chloe seems to have always been the captain.I could see Chloe giving Max some 'weird' orders.>>478434242Joyce was just happy the two were such great gal-pals. Who spent hours alone together in Chloe's increasingly odd smelling room.>>478436197Based and truth-pilled. I never understood how some posters in this general could ever picture Max as dominant and Chloe as submissive. I think they are both very clearly coded with a particular dynamic in mind.
And an early attempt at Swann to finish off.
>>478437118>Based and truth-pilled. I never understood how some posters in this general could ever picture Max as dominant and Chloe as submissiveChloe act though but we all know that's a facade to mask her inner struggles and trauma. She can be dominating in every other contest but melt down if the right person is around, like Rachel and Max
>>478438572This. 90% of the time, Chloe's the little spoon, despite her height advantage.
>>478437195Still a creepy picture to me personally. Looks exactly like my mother circa 1980.>>478438572Her punk persona is just a tough shell obviously.But even once you get down past that. Chloe is fundamentally headstrong, assertive, bold and has somewhat of an overpowering personality. When you combine that with the punk aesthetic, she is very, VERY clearly dom coded. Max being the obvious inverse here.I would sooner accept a submissive Victoria then I would a submissive Chloe.
>>478439483I like the way another anon described it where Chloe wasn't submissive so much as a power bottom, where she was willingly "submitting" by encouraging Max and pushing her to take the lead.
>>478439828I can accept a power bottom Chloe. I think that is far more true to her character then her being purely submissive.But I personally cannot see her as anything other then a dominant top. Even ignoring character coding, I think just on the levels of personality and relationship dynamic, this would gel the best with Max.
>>478446627Victoria and Kate make for such a cute couple.
>>478447360Every time Victoria puts out a new exhibit, there's always at least one photo of rabbits.
"Hey, you're finally awake."

>>478471927I'd kill for a PROPER remaster using the mocap and graphics of TC.
It's torture being a big, muscley, tattooed line backer motherfucker and having the first game in my top 5. Either people laugh and don't believe me or they call me a creep who fetishizes the characters.I just like the tragic romance, likable characters, and extremely, almost painfully comfy setting.
>>478473617I wish they'd waited for the 10th Anniversary and done it properly.
>>478473617Chloe would be too hot in the TC art style and animations.

>>478544976What if Max liked Deathspell Omega
>>478531046>>478538548We have already established that Max has awful personal hygiene due to her 'tism. It logically follows that she is the worst smelling.>>478548857They were not that bad. Excluding some problems with shadows that the remasters still have, they are basically at the point of just being a slightly better looking version of the base game.

>>478554081Very cute.A few more tattoos and maybe a hint at some abs and you got perfection.>>478574028Correct.But I think the inherently tragic and yet believable nature of the relationship between Chloe and Max is also a big factor here.>>478575165I could imagine Chloe 'playing doctor' with Max.>>478581402>Steph+Alex>No Rachel or her as a rotting corpse in a coffin-car>Taylor+Courtney>Nora+Swann>Autumn+Kat?>Steph+Iizze?>Riley+Alex?I think that just about covers the advances in gayness since the original image was made.
>>478581402Maybe Steph, Ryan and Alex all together in Ryan's truck. Could move Rachel into Frank's RV, or stick her in a ghost car with Gabe for the meme. If it were a different teeming than a race I'd need to give it more thought, just some kind of cute activity everyone is doing together.>>478583012I'd say don't put any of the vitriol into it, there's no need to spite Rachel in these - that's against the spirit.

>>478605503nah, i rather LiS2 than highschool sketchbok Chloe
>>478614203Chloe getting more tattoos as a way of responding to a traumatic event makes infinitely more sense then her getting her sleeve blacked out. If anything I would expect her to have a few more then what she has in that picture.It's cute and suits her character.
>>478617005I don't like them being haphazardly thrown all around her body though, the sleeve made sense thematically and I'd want to see a continuation of something to that degree.
>>478621975Oh, I fully agree that the random placement is not great. My point was just that getting more tattoos makes so much more sense then what we see in LiS 2.I personally imagine a post-LiS 1 Chloe would have two full sleeves (likely extending up into her shoulders), with a relatively small number of one-offs on her legs, back, torso and butt. Something generally much more organized then the chaotic layout we see in >>478588775
>>478625808I think her old sleeve should have something to "cap" it off, or kill it, to show that spiral she was on has ended, and the new sleeve is separate and building something better for herself.
>>478630926I don't know about 'killing it'. But Capping it off with something up around her should is absolutely something I could get behind. Same with her new sleeve being something new, maybe more positive and reflective of her life with Max (Chloe and Max's spirit animals spiraling around each-other up her arm maybe?).

>>478694723I'm 200% sure her cherry was popped already by the time they started dating.
>>478694723Nobody is gonna report him as long as he keeps the drugs flowing in the bay
>>478694723Which is funny because the staggering majority of females do not reach adult age as virgins anymore these days.
Max and Chloe are never coming back to the series. Ever.
>>478698413I hope so because I doubt either DN or D9 are capable of delivering something good with them.
>>478663974Is there anyone this dumb slut didn't fuck?
>>478699023Probably her dad. She's a whore but not THAT much of a whore
>>478699023Chloe.
>>478698664Speaking of, do we have any more news if the new LiS game is coming out at this Summer Game Fest? There has been a lot of leaks about many games (like that Valve multiplayer one) but no any news about the LiS game Deck 9 is supposedly going to announce soon.
>>478662501Gay
>>478698413I think it is far more likely that a new LiS game will be Chloe/Max centered, rather then feature new protagonists.LiS 1 and BtS both sold great. TC was successful, but an order of magnitude less so then LiS 1. LiS 2 damaged the series.Square is a business and they are going to go with what they know sells. Chloe and Max sell.>>478699256Chloe really dodged the bullet there. Rachel was a walking bio-hazard.>>478701998Ignoring the rumors from last year, these are the only details that we know for sure:>LiS 3 is currently being developed by D9>LiS 3 is in a very advanced stage of development as of a few months back>The TC novel and next nightmare comic issue that were due to release in April have been delayed and will now release after Summer Games Fest>SGF is during Pride Month and thus a pretty natural time to announce a series with such a strong LGBT association/fanbaseAll of the indications suggest that at a minimum we going to get a LiS 3 teaser along the lines of the LR teaser from last years TGA at SGF next month. Maybe a full presentation. Either way we know that LiS 3 is very far into development and SGF is the natural show to announce it during, given an assumed Q4 '24, Q1 '25 release window.If I were a betting woman, I would feel pretty comfortable putting money down on a LiS 3 announcement next month.
I want Kate to eat me out.
>>478650880Lisa is an avid sci-fi fan.
Just randomly heard To All Of You playing and got hit by a huge wave of pain and now I want to kms because I can't go back to when the game had just freshly come out and also the characters aren't real. what do you call this feeling
>>478710652Yeah we know that. All I wanted to know if there is any movement from Square or D9, or any possible actor involved to set up things in some possible teaser/announcement trailer
>>478718013Spirits Within is a legitimately good movie. Lisa has good taste.>>478722385I don't think there is a name for it. But I get down from time to time that I will never have a relationship like Chloe and Max.>>478725157Nothing that I know of. I have been looking at trademark registrations every few days, both nothing so far associated with LiS.>>478726491Gal-pals being good gal-pals.
>>478727128>Spirits Within is a legitimately good movie. How much tied is it to the Final Fantasy franchise? I bought the classic Final Fantasy 7 some time ago and I definitely wanted to try it and see how it holds up, and if I have to know the earlier games to have a better understanding of the story>I have been looking at trademark registrations every few daysMe too, but so far nothing. If they are going to register it, I feel like they might use a fake title related in someway to the franchise or a working title, before changing it to the official one.
I want to play D&D with Steph
>>478729585>How much tied is it to the Final Fantasy franchise?I have never played a FF game before and I both liked and understood it. I think it is its own standalone thing, removed from the games.Now I think about it, SW would probably make for a decent date movie. Assuming you have the right sort of kinda nerdy partner.>I feel like they might use a fake title related in someway to the franchise or a working title, before changing it to the official oneI think they have probably covered most of their bases in that regard.But SGF is only a few weeks away now. So I think there is a chance we could start seeing D9 hint at an upcoming reveal. Depending on if we are getting a full presentation or just a teaser.>>478734808I want to smoke some pot with Chloe.
What if Max was busty
>>478739201She would be less attractive.Alex is the only LiS character I can accept being busty.
>>478739201Chloe would be spilling spaghetti around her constantly trying not to stare. Jefferson wouldn't target her because he's a creep aiming for more youthful, young and can be inferred childlike targets.
>>478746519I can see this. Max leaves, then returns 5 years later with absolute honkers.
>>478739201Imagine Chloe's journal in BTS if this was the case
>>478750261Hey Max.I tried to write another letter today, but I got thinking about your bazongas again and now the pages are stuck together, again. lol.
>>478739201Ruined
>MaxCute>Chloe Beautiful >AlexHot
>>478750261>>478755825Given that we already got her drawing Max as a thirst-trap pirate, I'm surprised that more pages of Chloe's journal were not stuck together.>>478758543I agree with you on Max and Alex. I don't know if I agree if you on Chloe. Not because she is not beautiful (she obviously is). Rather, I would not describe her beauty has her main trait.My favorite thing about Chloe personally, has always been her personality. Something about being head-strong, assertive and spontaneous while also having this very emotionally fragile inner core is just something that I think is inherently interesting/compelling/likable. To the point that I think she steals most of the spotlight from Max.Replaying LiS 1, I know that my least favorite parts of the game are those long stretches in episodes 1 and 5 where Chloe is absent.
>>478739201
bump
>>478759885The thing about Chloe is she has this kind of fleeting beauty to her, like for how damaged she is she's also vulnerable, and you're always at risk of her slipping through your fingers.
need more chloe in my life
What if Chloe was chubby
Not really the main topic here in this thread, but apparently Steph's working on a live-action movie.
>>478794169ventriloquist dummy lookin ass
>>478739201Would she even be Max anymore?
>>478794169Happy for her, I'll check it out when it drops
>>478778550That is actually a really good way of describing her.It makes me just want to hug her and not let go all the more desu.>>478791897She would be even more cute.
>>478794169That's cool to know, hope everything goes well for her!
>>478760594imagine suckling on those beauties
>>478806249Yes please

>>478844218Max - Arcane MageKate - Holy PriestChloe - Outlaw RogueVictoria - Demo Lock
>>478844471Steph gets roped to play the tank; not sure if she'd go warrior or death knight, tho.Also their most epic moment in all of w0w career was that time Kate mistakenly ate the wrong brownie and they all sat down to play as a way of keeping Kate grounded-ish, only to discover that sober Kate is good, but stoned outta her gourd Kate is a god-tier healer pulling off feats that shouldn't be possible.
>>478840648What do you think Rachel's reaction would have been to Max showing up?
>>478844239Great song. But I still like 'To All of You' better.>>478855440My understanding is that demons typically flee when confronted the virtuous.So my money would be on her either quickly leaving the Bay or just melting Wicked Witch style.>>478858332Now this is a super hero movie I would watch.
>>478855440I think at first a sense of relief that she might have a means to cut Chloe off "clean" without guilt of leaving her alone, mixed with a tinge of jealousy that Chloe has someone else she can be as happy with as she was around Rachel, that she doesn't quite know how to unpack.
>>478859027So it's confermed that Ratchel is a demon AND WORSHIPS THE DEVIL
>>478864469Would you honestly be surprised if she were a satanist? Rachel is basically the anti-Kate.I would go as far as saying that she was a totem keeping away some of the people most able to actually help her victim, Chloe. Notice how Max and Kate only show up in the Bay once the demon was defeated?
>>478859027>>478864469>>478867025My brother in Christ, or if not in Christ then in this general - you need help. Seriously. Hating on a fictional character beyond reason is not a good way to build your entire personality around.
>>478869520This. It's the same shit that makes Amberpricefags unbearable, just changing the target doesn't make it sane behavior
>>478869520>>478874441Because I really do think Rachel is a demon. That is a totally reasonable thing to say about a fictional character, that would only be said totally seriously.Unfortunately there is not a single standardized symbol for denoting humorous sarcasm in text, so in the name of accessibility, I will make sure to prefix all my future demonic Rachel posts with a combination of ⸮ and ¿

If I had the money, I would love to commission a short Afterlaughs comic on it.>>478902773>>478903702Steph is so lucky. Just imagine spending every night beneath those thighs.
>>478905054>Steph is so lucky. Just imagine spending every night beneath those thighsShe's living the dream, I can't hate
No beanie
>>478909237she's so pretty
>>478909237Being able to see the full framing of her hair really elevates her, which makes it so hard to pick between beanie and no beanie.
>>478903184Very subtle
>>478905054Alice knows.
>>478922952Rabbits are quick to sense lewdness.
>>478920421I'm personally team beanie. But Steph does have a hairstyle that compliments her perfectly. By default I am also just super jealous of anyone that can wear a beanie, without it turning their hair into a frizzy, matted mess for the remainder of the day.>>478922952Alice knows and approves of what her aunts get up to.I imagine Kate is probably the only girl in the dormitory innocent enough to not figure out what Max has been doing with Chloe. The likes of Dana and Victoria can recognize a walk of shame when they see one, especially when it always seems to sync up with Max going somewhere with Chloe.Kate is probably on the level of Joyce in this regard.
>>478929853The absolute scandal when somebody catches Max sneaking back into the hall before sunrise, still smelling of weed and sweat.
texmod intensifies
>>478932882An incredibly disheveled and embarrassed Max attempting to sneak back into her room after spending yet another night with Chloe, makes for a really cute mental image.Probably also having to deal with an angry Victoria and/or concerned Kate after trying and failing to not make any noise.

Afterlaughs is a treasure.Just imagine how much better things could have turned out had Square just hired her to do the official LiS comics. Even putting art-style aside, pretty much all of her LiS art shows that she understands the characters more then any of the actual comic writers ever did.
Weird shit hours.
>>478906328Damn I'm jealous of Alex
>>478953816extremely cursed
>>478966810Steph kisses...
>>478951303I do enjoy their art, but I wonder if their art would suffer scheduling a workload like an ongoing comic.
>>478977964I got this: we involve Max in this, and have her go back in time to commission Afterlaughs for this as far back in time as Afterlaughs first got into LiS. And we give her a very generous timeline, till like... Let's say June 2024? that'll be plenty of time to take it nice and slow while also producing a high-quality comic series.
>>478929853>Alice knows and approves of what her aunts get up to.Indeed.

The next Life is Strange should be about a cute lesbian black girl.
>>479069531Black girls belong to BWC
>>479078721>Chloe confesses to Ghost Dad she accidentally blurted out that she's "hella coming" last night with Max
>>479065854I agree. Bodyworship is where it is at.>>479069531I have put some real thought into what I would do if I could dictate my own LiS game. I guess one of the good things about LiS as a series is just how fundamentally malleable it is.I would probably make it about a high-school senior dealing with the dual realization that not only does she suddenly have the supernatural ability to influence technology around her, but also that she is actually into other girls. The general tone being most similar to the more laid-back vibe of TC/Early LiS 1 episodes, with a big focus on just hanging out with people and building relationships/your own circle of friends. Rather then some big mystery or time critical drama.Unlike previous LiS games, there would be four romance options and the relationship itself would be both at the core of the narrative and form the bulk of it. Unlike pretty much every other game that has romance options (including previous LiS games, to a lesser degree), the romance options here would actually be their own people with their own wants/desires out of a relationship/partner and could just outright reject the player if they do not play their cards right. No universal acceptance of the player or ambiguous bisexuality.Each of the four would all have their own unique requirements, based on both their personalities and social clique. For example: Attempting to romance the goth girl may require you to start wearing a choker for her and be able to deal with a relationship that is constantly tiptoeing around her conservative parents. Pursuing the athlete may require having to deal with dates that are slotted in between practice sessions/events and a partner who is very open/proud of her sexuality. Romancing the trans girl could outright require you to cut someone from your social circle and handle a partner that is really emotionally sensitive about certain things.All of this culminating in the big school dance.>>479084535I'd be crying also desu
>>479078721I feel this.

That is not even touching on my personal preference for a Victoria/Courtney/Taylor throuple ship. She just seems like pure gf material to me I guess.
>>479146618What the hell is this garbage?
>>479146618Still nowhere close to Alex, it seems
Anyone watch this after discussing in the last thread?
>>479153439I watched it.I was honestly surprised just how emotionally effective it was. It was also super obvious that one of the characters was originally written as gay. Pretty decent movie really, I think it would make for an ok date movie.
>>479153439So, Lost records?
>>479163374Just based on what we know of LR, I could see it being an influence. Obviously the whole 'group of four friends reconnecting as adults and reflecting on their time together as kids' is a pretty clear point of overlap.But, I'm personally expecting that LR will lean more into the vibe of something like The Craft. Now and Then is more dramatic and comedic then the tone that the LR trailers seem to have been going for.
>>479163374LR seems to be built off the lifeblood of those coming of age 80s stories
AI anon, what program are you using for your pics? Stable diffusion?
>>479141454I can think of a number of reasons why Victoria is uniquely attractive. Her being one of the very few LiS characters that does not have an overly passive personality being a big one.
>>479175343Bing for the most part.
>>479176023what is the context here
>>479185610Victoria "hazing" Max and Kate. More specifically, Max is under Victoria and Kate is under Max.Gosh I love Victoria.
>>479186424Victoria tries to humiliate two girls in her class and instead gets the best head of her life - you hate to see it
>>479191067Victoria's bullying has always come across as having some pretty gay sexual undertones to me personally. In that light I think this is more a case of a plan coming together better then she expected.She always seemed like the type to be the absolute biggest bitch to someone like Max or Kate during the day, only to then spend the night fantasizing about having them on a leash.>>479191376Chaseprice is very underrated. Just imagine the fights over who gets to top.
>>479191376I have no explanation as to why but my brain reads this as Max and Chloe's daughter hitting on Kate and Victoria's daughter
>>479196928Understandable. "Chloe" is wearing a Max shirt and "Victoria" seems to have Kate's face.>Max and Chloe's daughter hitting on Kate and Victoria's daughterI wish that was an entire comic now.
>>479204140The lesbo baby timeline must become real
>>479224505>Chloe and Max's daughter is a brash punk tomboy that knows how to push other girls buttons>Victoria and Kate's daughter is a spoiled princess type that gets easily flustered and embarrassedI would absolutely ship them. It has actually got me curious as to what the daughters of other LiS couples would be like, especially Alex and Steph.The lesbo-baby timeline has my full support. I really want to see a full comic set in it now.
Only ever played the first episode of LiS2 and Captain Spirit in 2019, but gonna start it again tonight. I convinced my girlfriend to play True Colours and she loved it. LiS2 is the only one I haven't played, but I am an older brother to a 10 year old so I feel like it might hit me hard.
>>479235863LiS2 made me really sad because I realized I wasted time and money on LiS2
>>479242253Kate finds business Chloe in the park, interrupting the gay meeting just before Max arrives.
>>477313843Life is Tumblr you mean?
>>479250358What
>>479243736Such is life
>>479259310How very strange
Don't forget Ryan down there with Max, he's gotten jack shit since TC released while Steph and Alex are eating. I'm a Stephfag but I still would at least want him to be a major character in Chengrich stories, he's the third member of their trio.
>>479196928>>479204140
>>479211604I'm in Love with the Villainess>>479250358Yes. Thank god for Tumblr.>>479274782That is painfully cute. I bet Kate would be such a great mom. I picture Victoria as the type who would try to be strict, but quickly cave and utterly spoil her daughter.I really would love more of this. Life is Strange: The Next (Gay) Generation.
>>479274446What's the deal with pairing an sexual abuse victim with the person that bullied her and drove her to suicide?
>>479295470They're cute together.
>>479295470They make for a perfect couple. Extremely complimentary personalities.Victoria is also a much more complex character, compared to the cruel bully that some people tend to reduce her down to. Not to the point of making how she treated Kate excusable, but also not unforgivable. While Victoria did set the dominoes falling when it came to everything that happened with Kate, she obviously never intended for things to get to the point where should would attempt to kill herself. The suicide attempt itself also seems to be primarily motivated by how Kate's family was treating her and potentially broken memories of the Dark Room; Things that are downstream of Victoria, rather then the bullying of Victoria herself being a direct motivator.I would argue that there is some level of queer subtext to how Victoria interacts with other girls. Especially girls with more passive personalities. Courtney and Taylor for example bent the knee and became Victoria's flunkies. Both Max and Kate to some level resisted Victoria and become the subject of her bullying; Bullying that I would argue is sexually possessive in nature.Because of all this, I would argue that Victoria is probably closeted and does not know how to express her feelings for other girls in a healthy way. She really seemed like a changed person after what happened with Kate and I could see this as a catalyst for positive change. Potentially to the point of Victoria just being honest with Kate about her feelings. Feelings that could be reciprocated.>>479298756This is also important. They are very, VERY cute together.
>>479300117>>479300450The most difficult question in the LiS fandom: Chasefield or Chasemarsh?Both ships make for very cute couples.
Road trip!
>>479312449Kate is serious about Max and Chloe helping her volunteer at Bible Camp
>>479312449Clearly this is just another one of Victoria's totally heterosexual pranks™As with all of Victoria's bullying, there is absolutely no gay sexual undertones to be found!
>>479314927How does this tie in with Comic Victoria having essentially the gender swap of herself for a boyfriend?
>>479315285They're each other's beards.
>>479315285That speaks to Viccy trying to be "normal", yet still finding the most obviously twink boyfriend who clearly reminds her of a woman, herself.
>>479314927fucking love ehryel's art, it's all gay
>>479316309Here's hoping that one day Victoria will be honest with herself when it comes to her own sexuality. Kate is probably holding out for her.>>479317460I just wish they did more LiS stuff. An entire Victoria set would be ideal.Just imagine some more pictures alone those lines but featuring a different girl with Victoria in each one. Max, Chloe, Courtney, Taylor, Steph etc
>>479318632>Just imagine some more pictures alone those lines but featuring a different girl with Victoria in each one. Max, Chloe, Courtney, Taylor, Steph etcI feel like Steph's would have Victoria as the topless one.
>>479326480Steph is a total bottom. She just has a much less passive, introverted personality then the likes of Kate and Max.I would put her into the same broad category as someone like Chloe. Would probably make a show of resisting and being embarrassed, but secretly has probably been dreaming of being tied up and handled by someone like Victoria for years. If anything, I think she would be much less of a brat then Chloe.
Dana Cute!
>>479312449Imagine if they hit a bump in the road and Max's feet got pressed against Chloe's nose for the rest of the ride lol that would stink hahaha
would you a first person max mod?
>>479342378I don't think that would work very well. I know a number of games built like LiS 1 tend to have scenes built sort of like dioramas, a resource efficient way to built things because they know that the camera is going to be somewhat restrained. Suddenly allowing 360 degree player free-view seems like it would just result in contently seeing how the sausage is made. Tables with untextured bottoms, voids instead of ceilings, aggressive object culling, missing backgrounds, sudden detail fade-in etc.Maybe it could work if LiS scenes are built differently to how I assume they are. But even then, I do not think a first person mode would add much.>>479342628Clearly the best day in both Max and Victoria's respective lives. I think it is safe to say that they have both been wanting to do something like that for a very long time. Always nice to see LiS art that is so true to the characters. They even managed to fit in the secretly jealous Kate.Incidentally, I just finished 'Im in love with the villainess'. At times it gave me a bit of a Chasefield vibe. Not just because it is so easy to imagine Max as a masochist around Victoria either. With just a few tweaks, I could very easily imagine Max pursing the person that the game intends to be her rival
>>479344940omg hot
>>479285048
>>479298756>>479299373>points out the ship being composed of a abuser/former bully and its victim as fightfully fucked up>"b-but they cute owo"Not an excuse, people who ship Kate and Victoria toghever are on the same level at those who ship Nathan with Max or Warren toghever.
>>479357193always loved this style
>>479358409As awk and off-putting as Grahamfield is, at least Warren never tried to kill Max. So that immediately puts it above a Kate/Victoria ship.
>>479358409Nobody is suggesting that what Victoria did was not fucked up. The argument is that what Victoria did was not unforgivable that both her and Kate could not move past. Especially if they both ended up having feelings for each other.Victoria didn't know about the Dark Room. Victoria did not make Kate's family seemingly go out of their way to be as hurtful as possible. Victoria clearly did not think this would escalate to Kate attempting to kill herself. All Victoria herself did was be a bitch to the sensitive girl and did something really cruel to her.>abuser/former bullyLet's not go overboard. Victoria was a school bully who seemingly targeted shy/introverted girls like Max and Kate. She could be a cruel bully. But still just a bully.Kate's family were far, far more abusive then Victoria ever was. While Victoria did inadvertently set these events into motion, ultimately Kate wanted to jump because of the direct actions of her family, not Victoria.>b-but they cute owoObjectively speaking. They are a hella cute couple. Even if Chasemarsh is personally only my third favorite Victoria ship.>WarrenI can understand why people (especially those with a shallow read on Victoria) would have a problem with Chasemarsh. But putting that on the same level as Grahamfield is just insane.>>479359454Warren was a creepy incel that literally stalked Max around campus and spied in on her bedroom window. If it were not for the fact that LiS has a serial killer and a date-rapist in it, Warren would be the worst person in the game.Shipping the incel stalker who has a misogynistic white-knight delusion with his lesbian victim is far worse then anything suggested by even the most uncharitable criticisms of Chasemarsh.>Warren never tried to kill MaxVictoria never tried to kill Kate. While Kate wanting to kill-herself was downstream of Victoria, that was clearly not something Victoria wanted, expected or was a prime factor in.
>>479361169Victoria was literally filming, hoping to get one last viral video out of Kate, and remains unbothered and unapologetic even if Kate does kill herself.I'm an AU fan through and through, but as is, Chasemarsh is right down there, barely half a step above Marshscott or Jefferfield.
>>479361915>and remains unbothered and unapologetic even if Kate does kill herself.Now that part's just not true - she is visibly conflicted by it and Episode 5 literally shows off a brief segment as Victoria where you can see it's one of the things tormenting her.
>>479361915>Victoria was literally filmingShe was bitching a bitch and watching a what she thought was just a meltdown.>hoping to get one last viral video out of KateShe very clearly never expected her to jump. She is pretty clear about this if Kate actually does kill herself. Even if Kate lives, it is obviously something she feels bad about. She fundamentally misjudged the seriousness of the situation, a fuck up, not malice.>and remains unbothered and unapologetic even if Kate does kill herselfObjectively not true.Victoria is very clearly seriously hurt by this, regardless of if Kate lives or not. She explicitly apologizes if Kate lives and if she dies, she states that she wishes she could apologize. Regardless of outcome here, Victoria is both very bothered and apologetic.>barely half a step above Marshscott or JefferfieldGross opinion. But it is clear that you just have a bad read/recall of the situation and generally shallow understanding of Victoria as nothing more then sadistic, villainous bully.
Victoria was a bitch and a bully, but she thought she was knocking a self-righteous prude down a few pegs for a cruel laugh, not pushing a girl to suicide.
So Max and Chloe's daughter is Kari Price, but what would Kate and Victoria's daughter be named?
>>479365332I think we can all agree that her last name would absolutely be Chase. For much the same set of reasons why Max and Chloe's daughter has the last name of Price.Kate would probably want a more old fashioned first name and I could imagine Victoria wanting a first name with a bit of associated grandeur. Given this, I think Elizabeth Chase, Alexandra Chase and Catherine Chase are all solid options. As with Victoria's name, they are also all shared with past royalty.Out of these, I personally like 'Elizabeth Chase' the best. If only because I imagine Kate and Victoria's daughter to hate having her name contracted and I could picture Kari taking great joy in constantly insisting on calling her 'Beth' or 'Lizzy'.
>>479342378There's a VR mod for BTS.
>>479362149>Episode 5 literally shows off a brief segment as Victoria where you can see it's one of the things tormenting her.This.People seem to completely miss the context of this section. Why suddenly make you Victoria if not to try and show you something? She's bullied just as much as anyone else, just in a different way.
I want to tongue punch Vic's butthole
>>479378037Get in line, anon.These past few days have been a real well of long overdue Victoria love on /lisg/. It is great to see.
>>479380527>I came here to kiss girls and chew bubblegum>And I'm all out of gum
>>479380748Love Is Strange 2, except this time Max turns her timepowers into becoming an absolute badass like Duke Nukem."The Bad Guys always thought they'd have more... Time."Also involves Max having a harem of all the hot girls of Arcadia Bay.
Playing BTS for the first time.Fucking hell.
>>479366723Elizabeth Chase sounds nice. It makes me wonder what other kids would be present in a lesbo baby timeline. Dana and Juliet? Stella and Brooke? Alex and Steph?
Not a bad edition of /lisg/ all in all.
>>479382024where can i donate my money to fund this?
>>479420189>>479382024I can absolutely see Baymax going full Punisher with her powers to get revenge.
>>479404001>Dana and Juliet?I picture their daughter as a hyper sporty tomboy type. A tall and yet also kinda thicc softball player, who can always be found either in the gym or on the field. Always friendly, cheerful and keen to help, but can be sort of overwhelming at times. Generally a pretty loud and touchy-feely type of person. Has a bad habit of slapping her friends on their backs or butts.For her name I'm feeling Ashley Ward. But she hates being called by her first name and everyone knows her as just 'Ash'.>Stella and Brooke?This is a hard call. But I think given that both her parents likely ended up in pretty well paying jobs and were sort of bitchy in their own way. I could see their daughter ending up as being cut from much the same cloth as Victoria. A very spoiled, elitist bully who maintains her own small clique of bitchy flunkies, mostly due to how happy she is to show off her wealth and splash money around. I do not see her as being as refined Victoria is, nor do I see her as having the same sort of social graces/power as Victoria. A generally much less complex person and more straightforward bully. Likely one who would single out and target girls from poorer families.I think both her mothers would want her to have something unique. So I'm thinking either 'Priscilla Hill' or 'Khari Hill'.>Alex and Steph?This is probably controversial, but I see their daughter being pretty mostly influenced by Steph. A girl who is pretty big into the arts and with plenty of nerdy interests, but is the total opposite of introverted. The kind of personality that lights up whatever room she is in. But at the same time, she has this more pensive, reflective side to her. I could see her getting into literature and maybe even end up being an author. I can also picture her being in a band, but just as a fun hobby.The two options that stick out to me are 'Heather Chen' and 'Laura Chen'.I really want a lesbo-baby timeline comic now. So many fun possibilities.
>>479432674How about these two?
>>479395507Yeah. Chloe's journal is depressing as fuck in that game.
>>479437749The temptation with a Taylor/Courtney daughter is to make her a clone of her mothers. A bully sidekick, that in this instance would be for Stella and Brooke's girl.But I personally imagine their daughter as taking on the more passive personality traits of both her mothers and actually being a very shy and sensitive girl that struggles to connect with other people. I picture their daughter as being pretty classically nerdy and even an outright weeb. Lithe, with extremely pale skin, greasy/curly dark brunette hair, glasses and maybe some acne scaring.She may have one or two friends that she mostly talks about anime or other such things with, but she spends most of her time alone in her room. Probably a pretty frequent target for a bully like Stella and Brooke's daughter. Despite all this, I think she would be pretty naturally intelligent and talented. Possibly with some level of interest in game design, comp-sci or even illustration. She may have even taken the time to learn some degree of Japanese.For whatever reason I also imagine her as being pretty big into femslash stuff. Something that probably started with her taking a liking to certain Sailor Moon characters as a kid and by the time she is in her late teens has evolved into her having a big collection of yuri focused light novels and maybe an author page on AO3.Her relationship with her mothers is good for the most part. But they have both had some level of difficulty connecting with their daughter. Even if they have always been supportive and there for her.The name 'Alison Wagner' stands out to me. But I also really like both 'Gretchen Wagner' and 'Emma Wagner'.>>479440302It is worth noting that the way Max looks in her journal is how she would look the next time Chloe sees her (LiS 1). But not how she looked the last time Chloe saw Max.Making Max hanging from the tree a potentially prophetic vision of her in a Bay timeline.
>>479442597I still think that Chloe has powers that no one realized. Too much important shit revolves around her in the games and comic. She's like a keystone of fate or something.
>>479443364My schizo theory is that either all or at-least a decent amount of young adult women in the LiS universe have some sort of supernatural power. But these powers lay dormant until awoken by some extreme emotional event. Even then, most of these powers are subtle, involuntary and generally dismissed as things like 'luck', 'Deja vu', 'coincidence' or 'instinct'.Chloe seems to have the power to see potential futures in her dreams, likely awoken by the death of her father and the feelings of abandonment surrounding Max. Rachel probably had some limited pyrokinesis or wind powers, awoken by the drama surrounding her parents. Alex has her empathy/aura ability, likely awoken by her traumatic childhood. Max obviously could control time and that was awoken by the death of Chloe.In this view Max is not special for having powers. But for having such a pronounced power that she is aware of and can control.I think it also logically follows then that due to their traumatic experiences in the Dark Room, both Victoria and Kate (even if she does not fully recall) may have developed their own powers.>She's like a keystone of fateI think that speaks more towards how important she is to Max then anything else. I do not think Chloe has any universal significance. But I absolutely do think she is the keystone at the center of Max's world.
>>479445142I like this idea that powers are a common thing in that world, the uncommon part is people actually becoming aware of them.
>>479452271i can subscribe to this idea, also Chloe being Max´s canon event fits nicely, she is her Uncle Ben
>>479443364You need to remember that Chloe wasn't just seeing William in her dreams, in Ep3 she flat out talks to him while parked up by the roadside.That they gave her this ability in the prequel without even a hint of it in the OG is a shame.
innocent sleepovers with kate
>>479461796Would love to stay up all night with her discussing our fave passages from the New Testament
>>479461796I do wonder just how many "innocent sleepovers" Kate can have in Victoria's room until people start asking questions.
>>479463028As many as it takes
>>479463278Well just based on the layout of the dormitory, I think they could get away with it for awhile. Especially if we assume Max was spending most nights having her own "innocent sleepovers" at Chloe's place.The main stumbling-block I see is people potentially seeing a disheveled, sweaty, bruised Kate try to sneak back to her room each morning.
>>479432674
>>479466174Nature finds a gay.
>>479468076Ominous.
>>479466174Best pairing
>>479468076I associate that shirt with Max more than Rachel at this point so for a second I thought that was a second Max.
I want an AU where William survived, Max didn't leave, and Jeffershit never existed.
>>479484461>Chloe is never traumatized>Never falls in with Rachel>Has to face up to her feelings for Max years earlier then she actually does>Stays in Blackwell>Both her and Max become friends with Steph>The pair end up coming out to their parents together and eventually go to prom as a coupleWhat a blessed timeline. The only thing I could think of to make it better is if Chloe and Max followed Steph to Seattle and they all formed a band with Izzie.
>>479489087I hope it ends with a big gay orgy
rachel bad
>page 11
>>479509967
>>479510259well max shouldn't have been messing around and turned in her photo
>>479484461I can't believe Chloe fought in the revolutionary war
>>479514396She is the older one between the two, though.
>>479516050Max the Civil War vet...
>>479520785This is now canon. Maybe AI-anon could conjure that up?
>>479499039>Chloe, Max, Steph and Izzie form a punk band>Travel around the US doing gigs>Have frequent gay group sex togetherI think we have discovered one of the better 'good end' timelines.>>479502867Possibly my favorite art style I have ever seen LiS art in. Kate in a Sailor Moon cosplay is a weird choice, but it works.
>>479528069Eh, still got to work in Steph meeting Alex.
>>479534282If they are touring around the country, I think we can imagine them running into Alex and hitting things off.Personally however I really prefer Marrich over Chenrich
>>479536026Can't really imagine how, when Steph and Izzie both come to the realization they're better off not in a relationship, they want different things. But do you I guess.
>>479534282Agreed. P. sure I'd rather a cute empath than a miserable narcissist.
>>479528069
life is strangemore like life is lesbians haha
>>479524281Confederate or Union?
>>479536837I get that. But we are already deep into AU territory. So I do not think it unreasonable to imagine a Steph that did not want to settle down in any one place. Certainly not some small town in Colorado anyway.This seems like it would remove the main thing that broke up their relationship.>>479536935The Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune cosplay is a fantastic touch. Very subtle.I had such a massive crush on Sailor Uranus when I was younger. Coming across the Japanese subs of the series was eye opening
>>479536897I think narcissists are cute in a way...
>>479539478I didn't think settling down was the issue, to me it seemed like the major issue with Izzie was she had some self-confidence issues that manifested as Steph needing to frame her own happiness around Izzie's needs. Once Steph realized her own major hang-ups over her mother's death, she realized she could make a home anywhere so long as it was with someone she loved and trusted. But Izzie wasn't in the headspace to present that same trust to her partner.
>>479542170It has been ages since I last played TC. So I'm probably forgetting a bunch of details.But from what I can recall, the big thing that broke them up was Steph wanting to stay in middle of nowhere Colorado, while Izzie hated the idea of being the only trans person in a small town. But as I said, it has been ages since my last play-through.>748 postsI guess I will start on the next thread.
Good thread everyone.I was getting worried after how quickly the last one got nuked.
