A troubled, isolated and gay sixteen-year old Chloe Price forms an unlikely friendship with Rachel Amber, a popular girl with her own hidden demons

Life is Strange: True Colors (TC) is a narrative game from developer Deck Nine (D9). Protagonist Alex Chen is a young woman with the astonishing supernatural power of being gay. While Alex’s power will lead to moments of great joy, it also brings her into the orbit of violent anger, world-altering sadness, and irrepressible fear

Life is Strange: Double Exposure (DE)

Lost Records: Bloom & Rage (LR) is an upcoming narrative game from developers of the original Life is Strange, Don't Nod (DN)

It was hilarious to see amberfags back in 2017 often getting in arguments with people who hate Chloe and Pricefield just as much if not more than they do because of the constant Max bashing. They are universally hated.

Max Caulfield is relentless in her pursuit of acquiring brown GF. She went as far as to leave Chloe to her demise in the school bathroom to achieve that dream. Well, at least Chloe will finally have Rachel all to herself in the afterlife.

When amberfags hated on Max, Pricefield fans would defend her. When they also hated on Chloe they would also defend her.

Victoria and Kate astrological relationship analysis:
>Sextile between Victoria's Pluto (Scorpio) and Kate's Venus (Virgo)
Here we see the emotional warmth of Kate compliment the inner strength of Victoria.
Kate's Venus illuminates Victoria's Pluto and is always able to see the inner good in her.
Victoria's Pluto is positively begging to be changed for the better by Kate once they are in a relationship.
>Trine between Victoria's Uranus (Capricorn) and Kate's Venus (Virgo)
Victoria's and Kate's relationship was destiny.
>Trine between Victoria's Neptune (Capricorn) and Kate's Venus (Virgo)
They are both creatives that share the same general interests.
This aspect in particular indicates a long lasting and happy relationship.
>Sextile between Victoria's Venus (Leo) and Kate's Mercury (Libra)
Indicates free, warm communication between the couple and harmony in general.
>Conjunction between Victoria's Jupiter (Sagittarius) and Kate's Jupiter (Sagittarius)
As a couple they radiate kindness and positive energy. Generally both in agreement on what course of action to take.
>Trine between Victoria's Neptune (Capricorn) and Kate's Sun (Virgo)
Extremely positive aspect for a relationship.
Indicates a long lasting romance that will be filled with warmth and creativity.

Overall this indicates that in a relationship Victoria and Kate would have a happy, loving, passionate and long lasting relationship. Love comes fast and easy to them, lasting a lifetime.
I personally consider this proof that Chasemarsh was fated and is the ultimate Victoria ship. The second best ship overall in the series. I want to see them get married damn it.

It has a bit of credibility in the sense that I could totally see Deck Nine write out a story like this.
At the same time it conveniently avoided explaining about the parallel timelines, the weird owl, double moon, the other person with powers and the supposed "red storm" you can see in one frame of the reveal stream.

So, if it turns out to be fake, that anon is asking to be mocked relentessly by making bold statements like "We'll see in October who's right".

If Double Exposure flop (by Square absurdly high standards, mind you that Max will still gain a lot of audience traction) it might be truly the end for the LiS franchise.

If the leak is true about the Chloe final appareance, at least it would be something. Life is Strange started with them, so it would be poetic if the series ended with them again.
>>
>>483536660
If DE fails, it’s over for d9, either let the franchise die or create another series like DN is doing with Lost records, an OG story with OG characters.

and it would be more poetic to have the game release the game on 30th of january 2025, as a homage to lis 1's release date (exactly 10 years later)

Well, there you go. You just nailed the whole issue on the head. No matter who "wins" the competition between DE and LR, all that really happens is that DE will sell less and sell slower, because some people are gonna go for LR no matter what. Quite a few people, in fact - hell, I myself probably will do exactly that, at least going by what I know of either game right now.

But to the dumb suits in charge, it's all about competing with imaginary "enemies".

At this point the only one I'm expecting to actually have real powers is Kat. She just gives off some bad energy. I fully expect her to either be directly involved in whatever goes wrong or become the outright antagonist.
I just hope we can avoid another Bae v Bay situation for the ending. Because if given the choice I am just going to automatically pick Nora to live regardless of whatever the trolley problem of the day is. Just like with LiS 1, it sort of undercuts the ending when there is a clearly superior choice.

I feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to contribute to this unique IP, and to have produced two Life is Strange games.

Come of think of it, that leak doesn't seem so far fetched... if they are working on maximum crunch conditions, a 2025 delay might be on the table.

I feel like DE is at 85 - 90% complete stage and the last thing left are bug fixing and optimization. I won't be surprised if the early access version come off with a shitload of bugs, crashes and performance issues like the remasters.

they are already showing odd footage of Max going to Safi's memorial, her hearing her voice, seeing Safi's aura ghost & splitting up the timelines, being shook for seeing her almost like it's first time

Kate is the perfect example of "Still waters run deep", or even "Beware the quiet ones".

Sure, she's shy at first, but once they're dating... Well let's just say whichever lucky lady that ended up with her is in for a lot more than they bargained for in all the best ways.
>>
>>483551870
>Kate is the perfect example of "Still waters run deep"
Honestly, surprised that Kate is a Virgo. She comes off as an almost archetypal water sign, I would have even said one with a Pisces or Scorpio stellium.
Compare her to Max, who is a classic Virgo.
>whichever lucky lady that ended up with her
Let's be real. It's Victoria.
>she's shy at first
Maybe if she found a nice passive Pisces or Cancer girl, then I could see Kate being becoming pretty assertive and even outright maternal in the relationship. It is a role that most Virgo and Taurus signs tend to naturally assume when paired with the more emotionally vulnerable water signs. One of the reasons why they are considered naturally compatible couples.
But Victoria is a fiery Leo. Kate is going to be wearing a collar in the relationship and she will like it. The Virgo weakness for fire signs (really just Leo and Aries) is almost as bad as the stereotypical Pisces weakness for Aries.

>The writers are absolutely shit, they said Max found Safi dead in the woods, then they said Max found Safi dead in the snow and in reality, Max found Safi dead sitting on a bench. At the edge of the forest.

>When Max finds Safi's body the original script had her on the ground and that's how Max found her.

More like Deck Nine is internally one of the worst organized companies and Level Designers have the full liberty to change the story beats without the writers knowing.

Alright, here's my theory crafting.
Keep in mind things like >>483553806, because it might explain a lot of things if we take the previous accurate leak.

In august 2022, one dude on the GamingLeaksAndRumors subreddit claimed to have talked with a playtester for the new LiS game, and two years later another dude claimed to have partecipated in a survey dated fall 2022, detailing what's the next LiS game was going to be about. Both of those two have been proven to be almost accurate to what Double Exposure has been revealed to be.
However, keep in mind that there are two key differences in both leaks:

>August '22 leaks detail that the game is going to be about Max jumping another timeline in which she finds her stundent (Safi) alive, and use this to solve the mistery of her death.
>It claims Chloe is going to appear if you choose to keep her alive

First point has been proven correct so far.

Now, on the second leak, it was accurate in regard to the setting, main Safi is dead story and the cat sidequest, but had a couple of differences:
>Survey dude in fall '22 claimed that the game was straight set in the Sacrifice Chloe timeline
>It also claimed the game was called "Aperture" as a reference to the main gameplay mechanic, which was a rework of Max's rewind but working only throught her camera lenses.
>no mention of parallel timelines mechanic

And that's come to what they have what they say in the IGN interview:

>“Queer or trans or women of color or just writers of color, folks who are not typically comfortable, able to be at home in the games industry just because of the way that it is,” she continued.
>“Zak left, we managed to reshape the story into something that we liked and cared about and really, genuinely believe in. I think our upcoming game is a really good game, and we built this incredible, diverse team of writers who are very, very good at their jobs, but on top of that extremely good to one another.

And then we had those recent, supposedly "fake" leaks >>483528147, claiming that Chloe and Safi being very similar is almost intentional. I think there's might be a reason why.

Essentially, I feel like the story was written with Safi set as a Chloe 2.0 since at that point they were going to be only with the Bay timeline, possibly under Zak Garris direction, and when he left the writers felt it was necessary to add Chloe as a way to respect both endings, as claimed in the recent reveal stream.

That's why she's probably going to have a very reduced role in the game if you choose the Bae timeline, they originally didn't plan to be there at all.

>>483555274
Seems quite normal honestly, the designer pitched an idea and the creative director reworked the scene to include it. But this also makes me question how this small rework is going to affect the dynamic or her death

Honestly it sounds like an absolute disaster that was able to be salvaged into something at-least mediocre, thanks to the long overdue canning of the shitstain on the narrative team.
I'm not really expecting anything great out of DE. But I would be more then happy with something in the ballpark of TC and will some fun Pricefield fan service. At-least all the side characters seem pretty interesting so far, so even if the plot sucks, I'm looking forward to interacting with the new Characters.

LR will be great, doubt they will cut anything, if they do end up with unused content, at least it will be justified instead of just:
- Oh no, Max has boobs!!! Remove it!!
- Oh no, Chloe's american flag has cuss words on it!! REMOVE THEM!!!!

We don't really have to bring astrology into this if it triggers you so much; My point remains the same.
Kate is clearly coded as a bottom and a natural compliment to someone like Victoria who is obviously the opposite. Kate would not give Victoria 'more than they bargained for' in a relationship. She would be on a physical leash inside a week.
>>483559509
>Oh no, Max has boobs!!! Remove it!!
I do not get why this is something you would be upset over. Especially when her model does have breasts.
>Oh no, Chloe's american flag has cuss words on it!!
Of all the actual quality content that Square made DN cut, why single this out?
>>483559759
As long as Zak is gone, I have some level of optimism for DE. Even if the only value it has is ~5 minutes of Pricefield fan service.
>>483559920
By all accounts Nora is going to be a romance option. So I'm already sold.
As long as they give us a chance to save her when everything goes to shit, then I will be fine with LR.

If DE fails Square will just sell the ip to MS.
If anything that would probably improve things for LiS. Square has been a real handicap.

>>483562614
Just imagine it. The cut relationship content from LiS 1 is restored. The series is squarely focused on Chloe and Max as it always should have been.
I can also see it out the corner of my eye. A glimpse at a better future for this series. The future it always should have had: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XHYYfoQ1-00
>>483563048
Plenty of reasons:
1) MS is salivating over the idea of getting an established IP with a public reputation for being LGBT focused.
Expect LiS themed pride merch from MS every June. Along with a heavy focus on Chloe and Max during events to signal how progressive their gaming division is. Great stuff.
2) Episodic titles that can released across multiple months are a natural fit for game pass. As it allows them to stretch a game out across multiple billing periods.
3) MS is already interested in the IP, hence why DE and TC were both revealed at Xbox events.

>>483563780
>Wanting your beloved IP to be sold off to Microsoft
Only if you're retarded to wish that on a game company. Microsoft has been known to kill game companies that they acquired. One of the recently famous game studios that Microsoft purchased and ended up getting the boot was Tango Gameworks. The game studio was known for creating Evil Within (created by the original director of Resident Evil 4) and the only good exclusive game to come out of Xbox, Hifi Rush. It doesn't matter if the game had a good reputation and was selling well for a non AAA game, Microsoft doesn't give a fuck and immediately burns the entire company solely because the game is not generating the company fortnite level of profitability.

You want to kill Life is Strange that much? Just give the IP to Microsoft, and then you'll know the meaning of despair.

>>
>>483641953
It doesn't matter if it's going to be a wipeout. All that matters is knowing that DeckNine has given the players an option where our once precious, cute, innocuous white girl will be touched and defiled by a black man. Porn makers would literally have a field day with this ship.

Max having sex with a black man, sharing one bed with a black man, even if the game doesn't show them doing the deed, just by the fact that Max can romance Moses would entirely mean all those BBC porn of Max will now be looked at as not something that coomer create out of fetish, instead it's something that can be accepted as canon in the game.

Alright, let's dissect the supposed leak take it step by step:

>D9 had a new main character in mind when they started the development for this new game. SE demand to include Max
I'll give it a 50% chance of believability, we know that from 2021 through that original TC leak it was supposed to be a new Max game, but it's not impossible that Square turned down D9 ideas for a new MC when they pitched it.

>If this game performs poorly in terms of sales, don't expect a new LiS game anytime soon
That's pretty much given for granted due to how Square Enix treats its western IPs.

>Safi's family is part a criminal organization (Safi doesn't know but will later on), her death was just a way to ''send a message'' due to unresolved conflicts
Very mixed on this, I'll say 40% believability. Safi's mom seems suspicious enough tho, and I bet she will have some significant role in the story.

>This will be the first game with another character with superpowers but my friend was reluctant to tell me about their role
It matches one of the reliable leak, but no info is given regarding who the other person is, so it could be just them making shit up.

>Safi and Chloe aren't all that different from one another in terms of personality and this was done on purpose
Yeah, an 80% on that, she's really trying to appeal her spot.

>Safi is described as the family's black sheep
We have a scene of her mother being supposedly supportive in the reveal trailer, so it's a 40% chance.

>also expect scenes referencing some Max and Chloe moments from S1
We already got the "Shaka Brah" reference with Amanda, not surprising if there are other references.

>Chloe won't be playing a significant role in this game but her presence will be felt throughout the game.
I'll say a 50 to 60% on that, we know they are hiding scenes from the Bae path and avoiding talking about Chloe at all, but we have one reliable leak that seems to support Chloe presence in the game

>>
>>483672251
>If you sacrificed Arcadia Bay, Chloe will make contact with Max via text messages, video calls, etc. The justification for her physical absence is due to a trainee program she enrolled in at a plane factory as a junior mechanic or something.
The mechanic thing does make a bit of sense with Deck Nine showing Chloe being familiar with cars in BtS, but working at a plane factory is kinda eh.

>There is a scene where Max is doing some kind of investigation at a remote rural area and she gets shot by one of the goons from that gang Safi's family have a beef with.
There's a scene at 1:57 of the reveal trailer that show Max seemingly going inside a abandoned building by herself, in comparison to the other scene in which she's with Orange timeline Safi.

>Ashly was meant to voice Chloe, but due to scheduling (and money) issues, she couldn't make it. So Chloe's voice actor from BTS returns. And speaking of voice actors, this game will feature a LOT of VAs from previous D9 games.
Rihanna Devries, has an unannounced role on her career site, one for full mocap and the other for Voiceover, and based on the wayback machine its something she had kept since 2022. It seems also believable enough for D9 to use their past VAs for support/minimal roles (we know that Kylie Brown was posting pics of her working in the studio last year).

>Two endings like the original game. One where Safi is alive but many family members get murdered in response and basically she moves to a very far place using a new ID. The other ending, Safi dies but her family is spared.
I could totally see Deck Nine recycling the first game ending dilemma for this to be true

>Also, there is a considerable chance that this game can get delayed to early 2025
Not far fetched IMO, I'll say a good 80% that's the case. Deck Nine is probably being crunched hard to get the game relased on October.

must be the timeline rachel convinced frank to leave town together
>>
So, In the SE blog, there's this titbit.

"If you played the original Life is Strange, you’ll remember that the game could end in two wildly different ways depending on your choices… **and we’ll say no more on that to avoid spoilers.**
So, which ending does this new game follow on from? **The answer is either of them.**
**You’ll see how the endings connect when you play the full game but rest assured that the events you experienced in the original adventure will remain ‘canon’ to you.**"
>>
>>483698242
I think you will have the option to specify which ending you took at the start with the Safi convo. A lot of context and material has been purposefully edited out, but you can see that the Max mostly used is the one from the Bay/Sacrifice Chloe path, and the Bae related footage is being hidden or edited out.
You'll probably specify what happened with your life in Arcadia Bay, and then Safi will ask you about Chloe. I can see two ways:

>Bay Path (Chloe is Dead)
She was a friend or We were childhood sweetheart

>Bae Path (Chloe is Alive)
She's my closest friend or She's my partner/girlfriend

And my theory is, the alternative/orange timeline will play out the ending you did NOT choose at the start of the game (ex. if you choose Bae, the other timeline will feature the Bay path).
This is the closest thing that could make sense with the context of "both the endings are canon". It could mean that Chloe could tecnically appear towards the latter half without changing too much the main story.

I fully agree and expect this is how they will handle things. As impossibly frustrating as it is, given how they have attempted to hide as much of the Bae timeline as possible. The Chloe/Pricefield doom posting is just really premature. Especially given that between the engagement ring and Rhianna, Chloe returning has already basically been soft confirmed.
My problem now, is just how much of a presence she will have in the story. I have already accepted that DE will not be the Chloe/Max duo story I wanted (ala LiS 1). But I do want them to include enough of Chloe to actually justify bringing back Max. That dynamic between the two of them was core to why I loved LiS 1 and I don't think it is unreasonable to expect even just some echo of that in the narrative sequel.

Right now I think the best case scenario is something like pic related.
Max and Chloe are in a relationship (if the option is picked) and in constant communication for the first half of the game. At roughly the halfway point Chloe actually shows up 'in person' and we get a cute reunion between her and Max that really catches us up with them as a couple. Maybe even going on a date with Chloe just before whatever DE's narrative equivalent of LiS 1 episode 5 is.
Her impact on the story is obviously limited (putting everything else aside, she would only still be alive in one timeline), but she has a big impact on Max personally.

My real question is if we are going to be able to travel between the Bae and Bay timelines. Are we going to be able to contact any of the Bay residents that died (Dana, Joyce etc) as Bae Max? Will Bay Max be able to contact Chloe?
As Bae Max, can we contact Joyce in the Bay timeline and pass a message from her to Chloe in the Bae timeline? I bet Chloe would love to get a message from the mother she suddenly lost a decade ago and I bet still feels guilty about.
These are the sort of things you have to consider when it comes to multiverse travel.

The funny thing is that it is not out of the realm of possibility that Izzie may pop up in DE. It is not as if she is tied to any of the choices in TC. I actually really hope she does. Gwen seems ok, but especially in the Steph novel, Izzie just came across as a really interesting character. The type of person you just want to chill with or go with to events. Very much my vibe.
While we have not seen much of Gwen yet, she does just not strike me as interesting compared to Izzie.
Fingers crossed we get more Izzie in Heatwaves regardless.
>>
>>483717570
Gwen seems designed as a response to Izzie's story and background being cut off from TC late in development, so I'm doubtful we'll see her again. But at least we can experience alternative Gwen either being a huge sweetheart or asshole.

>>
>>483798235
It's another LiS 1 situation really. Technically speaking both Alex and Max are ambiguously bi.
But also in both cases the gay romance option has been so clearly superior, that they are both functionally considered gay.

This is why the only romance options in DE are Chloe and Safi. No Warren. No male intrest at all.
All gay.
>>
>>483803428
Steph is the "Axis Mix" - one part German, one part Italian (not to be confused with Sicilian).
>>
>>483810051
Ehh, I wouldn't put Max and Alex in the same boat with the whole in-game romances option.

Unlike Max, Alex actually had a reasonable and viable straight romance option. It wasn't as popular as Chengrich, but viewed on it's own, Luchen is a perfectly fine romance.

Honestly, in some ways even better than Chengrich - straight romances from the POV are rare enough in gaming, and having a dude that's not only not a creep, but as much of a bro as Ryan is? Pretty refreshing, actually.

I do not know why game devs insist on giving trans women non-passing voices, when voice training is so effective, easy and universal these days. It is not as if people would not know she was trans had they used a trans VA with a more passing voice
>>483811117
I don't mean to put Warren and Ryan on the same level. Obviously Ryan is a total bro and about as far removed as you can get from the incel creep of the first game as possible.
While I will personally always take Chenrich over Luchen, erasing Ryan the same way as what has been done to Warren just feels kinda wrong to me. And this is coming from someone who normally has little tolerance for het shit.
That said, Chenrich is not my preferred ship for either Alex or Steph, it is just the best option in game.

I always got the impression that Kate was only religious due to the influence of her controlling parents. Had the storm and her suicide attempt not happened, I doubt that she would be anything more then a cultural christian by December.
Her sexuality may very well be another element of herself she was repressing due to the influence of her parents. Who knows what may have happened if she had the opportunity to live away from their influence for a few months at Blackwell. Very gay things with Victoria is my bet

Indeed. The quantity is actually getting there, the quality, on the other hand...

But my point was that with half the world being women, and well north of 90% of either gender being straight, you'd think female-POV straight romances done well would be more numerous than they actually are.

It really seems like the engagement ring is tied to one timeline. It seems natural to assume that would be Bae.
We also see in some screens, Max wearing a ring on her left hand that seems to be Chloe's ring. We never see her wearing Chloe's ring and the engagement ring at the same time. So the logical inference here is that the rings are tied to the timeline.
Bay = Chloe's ring
Bae (In a relationship with Chloe) = Engagement ring
Bae (Not in a relationship with Chloe) = neither ring

I don't know if any real details about the music have been released. I have my fingers crossed that they get Koethe. I will take back everything negative I ever said about D9 if they use 'Only One' for the Pricefield ending song.
I'm actually more hyped for the music in Lost Records as things stand now. Nora Kelly is fantastic and Riot Grrrl is one of my favorite genres. Still holding out for the full release of that reveal trailer song.

>>483985404
Out of all the new characters Gwen is honestly the one I would like to see more of. All of the others range from generic (Moses) to being a cheap replacement of a superior character from a previous game (Safi and Loretta).
Gwen could actually be really interesting depending on just how well we are able to get to know her. Especially when you factor in the personality changes between the timelines.
>>
>>484003385
I wonder if Gwen is still Untransitioned in the other timeline. Do D9 have the narrative chops to pull that off without it seeming distasteful?
>>
>>484003707
D9 is still at the level of feeling the need to signal a characters 'transness' by giving them an unrealistically non-passing voice. The vast majority of trans women who have reached the point of social transition that Gwen has, just do not sound like her. So I do not think they would be able to pull of a transitioned/non-transitioned thing with Gwen. As interesting as that would have been to see.
I think what we will actually get is a happy, open and very friendly Gwen in one timeline. And a more cynical, depressed and shy Gwen in the other timeline. Basically like how Kate normally is vs how Kate is when we see her in LiS 1. It makes sense to me that if Safi = Chloe and Loretta = Victoria then Gwen = Kate.

Or maybe her actress gave a good performance and they thought it was nice to have her in the game? I don't think they are being malicious with wanting to cast a trans character, they barely kept Izzie inside True Colors and they do not want Gwen to be a marginal character this time.
>>
>>484007768

>>484008005
has it actually been confirmed that Gwen is Transgender, or are we just basing it off her
initial appearance like people did with Abby in Last of Us 2?
>>
>>484008319
I haven't found any clues about her VA, but the voice seems very transitioning MtF trans person.
>>
>>484007845
I'm not saying they are being malicious. Just that it is an increasing noticeable trope with games who include trans characters. There always seems to be a need to either get VAs to use a less passing voice for the performance or simply hire VAs who do struggle with voice passing for whatever reason. I think this done out of a desire to highlight the inherent 'transness' of a character. I mean, when was the last game that even had a stealth trans women character?
From what little we have heard of Gwen so far, she does sound like she has only be voice training for a month and I think her VA was instructed to give that sort of performance.
Obviously the vast majority of trans women that have fully socially transitioned to the point Gwen has are going to have spent much more then a month on vocal training. So it is unrealistic.
>they barely kept Izzie inside True Colors
I will never forgive Zak for that. What he did to Victoria in BtS was bad enough. But Izzie is such a cool character who really deserved some real screen time.
Fingers crossed for heatwaves. Or maybe even an Izzie cameo in DE via a new in universe band she's a member of.
>>484008005
Futa content has always been pretty marginal when it comes to LiS. And it is not even accurate to conflate futa with a trans woman anyway.
Besides, we all know that when it comes to size: Victoria > Dana > Chloe.
>>484008319
>has it actually been confirmed that Gwen is Transgender
I do not think any details have come out yet. I have not even been able to find any known trans VAs taking credit for her yet.
But Gwen is very obviously MtF.
>are we just basing it off her initial appearance like people did with Abby in Last of Us 2?
The people who thought Abby was trans, have never met a cis butch woman before. A woman presenting as anything other then ultra femme is inherently suspicious and 'woke' to them.
>>
>>484012103
>I will never forgive Zak for that
You know, I highly suspect that at some point he was almost going to turn DE into a Bay only story. Do you remember how in the Rebekah Valentina IGN article it get mentioned how he was sent to help "fix" the next game, how the devs had to protest hard to not have him again and how they stated that they rewritten the project in a way they really liked after Zak left in 2022?
I think at this point, by one of the leak describing a game survey from 2 years ago, the game was still called "LiS: Aperture" and the only differences with Double Exposure was that it was set within the Bay timeline and Max had the power to rewind but only throught the camera lenses, with no mention of alternative timelines. That was the part that was probably changed by adding a Chloe cameo and reworking the mechanic to the shifting timelines.
>>
>>484015817
>You know, I highly suspect that at some point he was almost going to turn DE into a Bay only story.
I suspect they weren't even going to make Max the main character but due to some imposition on SE's part in a hope to bring more crash, they had to oblige. You can replace Max with a new character without changing a damn thing given how self-contained this story is.

We had report of DE being in pre-production at the Max&Chloe sequel since before True Colors came out. If Max wasn't supposed to be the original MC, that change happened quite early in the concept phase.

>>484015817
>I highly suspect that at some point he was almost going to turn DE into a Bay only story
I strongly suspect that this was the case, based upon the comments from the narrative team about him. I would even go as far as suggesting that Gwen may have been created after he was fired just so that the narrative team could thumb their noses at him, after the shit he pulled with Izzie.
Obviously I'm happy that the project has been able to course correct after Zak being fired. But I worry that many of his ideas have permanently stained DE. I mean if the original plan for the game was to make Bay canon, then obviously latter reworks to include Bae and Chloe can only do so much. Had Zak been removed after TC (like he should have been), I doubt that DE would very much resemble the game we are going to get now. If given freedom from the start of the project, I actually think that the narrative team may have attempted to merge the endings Deus Ex 2 style.
>>484016448
>>484017138
I think that Chloe/Max sequel may have started life as a separate project from DE. Likely being merged into one early into DE's production when the remaster and TC launches made it clear that D9 has serious capacity issues when it comes to the number of separate projects they can juggle at once.
If the original intention for DE was for it actually be a Bay sequel from the start, then it could even be that the unnamed Chloe/Max sequel may have been a now canceled Bae sequel. The comics/novels show that Square is happy to have different lines of continuity in the series after all.
>>484016452
There is no central hub for any LiS stuff.
The photo gallery in the OP is the best hub I can think of when it comes to LiS fanart.
The only real guide to LiS fanfiction I have ever been able to find is about ~6 years out of date now, but still covers almost all of the most important Pricefield stuff: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1aqMYeUAFVxU_U0etDAAmYaDP54bypjHbxGW6dOa7dOs/edit?usp=sharing

>I think that Chloe/Max sequel may have started life as a separate project from DE.
Could that be the Chronos thing people were talking about before? I thought it was supposed to be just one of DE nickname titles, like Siren was used for True Colors
>>
>>484019734
>But I worry that many of his ideas have permanently stained DE
Well, we already saw that with Safi seemingly designed as a Chloe 2.0 with the way she interacts with Max. Guess we will have to see how they will evolve through the main game.
>>
>>484020512
>Could that be the Chronos thing people were talking about before?
Probably not. As some ideas from Chronos seem to have been folded into DE, if the theory schizo and one of the leaks are to be believed. Obviously we do not know if this is the case or not yet.
From what little we know about Chronos, it seems to have been DNs idea for another LiS game post LiS 2. But this obviously came to nothing after they got booted off the series as soon as LiS 2 was finished. It seems to have been a concept that came about from a combination of the ideas being explored in the first LiS comic at the time and the negative response to LiS 2. A direct Max/Chloe sequel that got deep into the mythology of powers in the LiS setting and the nature of time/dimensional travel. I guess you could think of it as something closer to season 3 of Twin Peaks, rather then the season 1 equivalent of the first game.

After that, we get a gap of information that lasts from 2019 to 2022 when it comes to any Chloe/Max sequel. A gap broken by the now vindicated leaks regarding LiS: Aperture.
We will obviously never know for sure all of the ideas and plans that could have existed for a Chloe/Max game that got internally floated/experimented with during these information gap years. But just based on the way DE seems to have evolved, if we assume that it is actually totally separate from any Chronos ideas, then it starting life as a project that did not feature Max and was later merged with an existing Max project makes the most sense.

My personal theory being that the original plan set by Square in ~2020 was that over the next ~7 years D9 would put out the remasters, two spin off titles and then work on 2 sequels to the first game. One being Bay canon and the other being Bae canon.
When D9 shit the bed when attempting to juggle the remasters and TC, Square decided to merge second spin off game with the Bay game and cancel the Bae game concept outright.
>>
>>484024649
>we assume that it is actually totally separate from any Chronos ideas, then it starting life as a project that did not feature Max and was later merged with an existing Max project makes the most sense.
That could be possible, but it is all speculation. The only thing we can be sure is that DE working nickname is Chronos, so if anything they took some ideas from the previous concept and mixed toghever with their own original story.

TC is a great game. Its main problem is just how short it is. It really only feels like D9 were able to make ~45% of the game and then just had to stitch together whatever they had in the final few months.
It does play things kinda safe. But if you really liked the first three episodes of LiS 1, then you should like TC. Wavelengths is also super good for what it is.

Hard to say yet, since we have really only seen a tiny amount of the game and only a few hints at what the actual story is.
But so far I'm actually more excited about LR then I am DE. It really seems like DN have learnt their lessons and are actively attempting to bring back some of that LiS 1 magic. Nora Kelly is also doing some of the music and she is great.
That is not even mentioning Nora. Her being a romance option would basically automatically make LR GOTY for me.
>>484047162
>It's insane just how hard Wavelengths' ending hammers home
I do not disagree with you. It is actually kinda similar to how Farewell (and BtS more broadly) really hammers home just how much Chloe and Max belong together.
That said, Chenrich is no my preferred ship for either character.

>>484073516
>Safi's family is involved with a criminal organization
This seem like it would be simultaneously both too grounded and also too fantastical to be in a LiS story. Also only mentions 'goons' and no central antagonist.
I cannot see this being real and it would suck if it was.
>Safi is the only romanceable character for Bay
Honestly makes sense. I fully expect this to be true.
>Only a quick kiss
>Don't get together due to the endings
I sure have heard that one before. If this is true, I would actually feel sorry for anyone that actually likes Safi and Max in a ship. I know this pain.
>Bae gets to be in an established relationship with Chloe
I almost doubt that D9 would do something this good. But I would be overjoyed if this turned out to be true.
The engagement ring suggesting that it is.
>Another character with powers
Almost certainly the detective.
But technically speaking BtS and LiS 1 also had two characters with powers. Since BtS did hint at Chloe having her own ability.
>Chloe and Safi are not the different
Already knew that.
>Recreating Pricefield scenes with Safi
This would legitimately make me resent her and cheer for her death.
>Butterfly brooch
Stupid and impossible to believe for a number of reasons.
Least of all being that they abandoned the butterfly motif for DE and now focus on owls. This includes what Max is wearing.
>Chloe is only returning LiS 1 character
Possible. But I think most Bayers would be rightfully pissed if they do not get a call from the likes of Dana or Joyce.
Hell, Victoria is alive in both timelines so including her would have been easy.
>Ashly was meant to voice Chloe
Absolute bullshit and anyone who knows about Rhianna's relationship with D9 would be able to tell you that.

Over all I give this 'leak' a 1/10 for believability. Does not even reach the level of being possible counter info.
In terms of how much I would like it to be true, I give it a 8/10. Pricefield really being the appeal here.

I personally think Alex and Riley (Chenlethe?) just come across like they would be a more cute couple and seem to have better chemistry in my opinion.
There are a number of Steph ships I like better then Chenrich, but my top two would be Pricerich and Richgolis.
I don't dislike Chenrich or anything, I just do not think it is a stand out ship ala Pricefield; Where it is almost impossible to imagine the characters in a relationship with anyone else.

I get the reasons why they broke up. But I have actually always liked them as a couple. Frankly I think Steph really made a mistake by letting herself get attached to some small town in rural Colorado.
I think the idea of her and Steph cruising between gigs up and down the west coast would have been ultimately more romantic and fulfilling then the path she ultimately went down.

>Absolute bullshit and anyone who knows about Rhianna's relationship with D9 would be able to tell you that.
Doesn't seem to be too far fetched, I could believe that at the start they were planning Ashly as the voice while Rihanna at the mocap, like in the Farewell bonus episode, only to fold on Devries for obvious budget reasons.

>This seem like it would be simultaneously both too grounded and also too fantastical to be in a LiS story
Mmh. We have a scene in the trailers that show Max finding out her apartment conpletely trashed out, possibly by someone searching for some objects. And by the damage and approach, doesn't seem like it was made by the detective, the dude seems very professional for the few times we see him roaming around the campus and him illegally breaking inside one of the houses wouldn't help his research.
We know that Safi had a camera in hand when the murder happened, and maybe there's evidence of who killed her. If they are a criminal group, I can totally see doing that to retrieve whatever evidence Max has kept in the house.

>This would legitimately make me resent her and cheer for her death
We see Max saying "shaka brah" with the other girl Amanda, I think they are just going to sprinkle LiS1 references all over the game regardless of the character.

We do not know anything about him. You are just assuming he is some calm professional.
For all we know he could be some creep with a personal vendetta against Max and an explosive temper. We just don't know yet. But he is clearly more likely to have done it them some criminal gang. A criminal gang operating in a small university town in Vermont none the less.
>I think they are just going to sprinkle LiS1 references all over the game regardless of the character
I do not have all that much of a problem with little references to LiS 1 moments. My problem is very specifically about recreating Pricefield moments from LiS 1 with a character who seems to be very similar to Chloe. At that point they stop being cute references to me and instead read like an attempt to replace Chloe with a worse character.
While it would not upset my nearly as much. I would also have a problem with them including Max consoling an upset Loretta that had been covered in paint, or a Gwen that was about to jump from a roof. References are ok, but recreating scenes with equivalent characters gives the impression of attempting to replace characters from LiS 1 with modern stand-ins.

Wardmarsh is a very underrated ship.
A ship I always associate with the mental imagine of Dana princess carrying Kate into her room. No idea if that is from an fanart or a fanfic.

Mixed.
I would feel some type of meh way if they pulled a soft reboot of the original game but it's that not entirely unexpected from D9 given their typical ''safe'' approach to everything.
On the other hand, the Pricefield content seems to be more than decent to the point it can put the entire comic series and most fanfictions to shame. I would be eager to laugh at doomposters, amberfags and other shitters.

A cleverer team than D9 would have had Max realise that so many events and similarities keep happening, then it turns out to be connected to her power, time repeating in a different place.

Fair point. But I just think that having Max apartment being broke in such a messy fashion is very suspicious. You would think that the detective would at least try to be as sneaky as possible, rather than broke a door and pulling everything out of shelves and furnitures. And so far, the marketing make it seems like he's a constant presence at the campus, freely going around asking questions and he might have been given permission to explore any room he wants to.

As for why a supposed small university town in Vermont would have a criminal gang? Maybe they were looking for Safi's family's due to some issues they left behind, believing they would have been safer there.

I agree. But again, we do not know anything about the personality and mental state of the detective.
It just seems to me that occam's razor would suggest he did it, since that explanation does not rest upon the existence of a hereto unknown criminal gang.
>As for why a supposed small university town in Vermont would have a criminal gang?
The simplest explanation is that no such gang exists and the obviously fake 'leak' is just a fake leak.

1) The side-shave is objectively the single most attractive hair style. Only select variations of the undercut even come close to it.
2) If you think it is a 'fad' that 'died', then you clearly are not involved in the queer scene. It is still super popular with afab nbs and futch/soft-butch lesbians.
