Downfall editionPrevious thread: >>544725382>Life is Strange(LiS) - An episodic narrative adventure game by developer Don’t Nod (DN). Set in the fictional coastal town of Arcadia Bay, Oregon, it follows Max Caulfield, a shy, awkward photography student who discovers she can rewind time and—perhaps more urgently—that she’s very, very gay. At the heart of the story is Max’s reunion with her estranged best friend, the rebellious, blue-haired Chloe Price. Their bond becomes the game’s pulsing queer core as they unravel the mystery of Rachel Amber’s disappearance. What begins as a teenage reconnection blooms into a messy, tender queer odyssey about grief, desire, and the impossible choices we make for the people we can't truly live without.LiS Series Steam:https://store.steampowered.com/curator/36149206Discussion of the other LiS games in the series like Life is Strange 2, True Colors, Don't Nod's Lost Records: Bloom & Rage, the upcoming TV show and other similar games is welcome!

>Never believe that the anti Chloe trolls are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge.>But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Chloe have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors.>They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.
>>545669342Last time we will ever see her
>>545670373What do they even have to do with her comfy bar up in northern Vermont? Especially since geoloc-anon found the spot and it actually exists somewhere there
>>545670691Still here and kicking
>>545670962Majority of the fanbase has moved on from the 30 million dollar flop, nobody cares
>>545670863thanks to those pissfield idiots who did everything they could to destroy their own franchise
>>545671141You seethe
>Be Deck Nine>Get a contract with Square Enix to make LiS games>Make Before the Storm, a prequel centered around the popular character of Chloe Price and her relationship with Rachel Amber as told by the first game>It respect Chloe's character, with even a bonus DLC episode with her and Max as kids>Successful enough to grant them other works and grow as a company>Make Double Exposure, a sequel long requested by Square to cash on Max's nostalgia>Shat on Chloe's character development and her bond with Max, trying to replace her with D9's shallow OCs>It bombs so badly it starts a domino effect leading to D9's downfall as a gaming company>still contractually obligated to push out a DE2 despite crunch, lack of manpower, constant layoffs and the looming shutdown of the company
>>545671153Yeah, because it's never the fault of the big corpo stupidily chasing down easy profits and shitting on all that was find and good before
>>545671345
>>545671624Kek
>>545671624Anon, you are the one seething. I for once I'm happy some of the people who made this mess are getting their karma kicking in the balls
>>545671838you seethe
>the other bestie from the server that spent 6h at square enix had worded everything related to chloe as not happening either way & she was doubtful ab the game releasing even in 2026>I just know the person with the name pricefield attended more internal playtests even after the march surveys & kept saying that there's no way the game's out of alpha - I didn't get to archive much before the incident exposure channel was hidden away and I don't exactly care much anymore either considering how dead in the water DE2 is by nowguess is the closest we have as leak from the playtests
>>545670373Ironic given how many people thought she was Asian rather than Indigenous.
>>545672029Fuck those racists anyway
>>545671531well, you should've thought about 'big corpo stupidily chasing down easy profits' when you begged them for a direct sequel
>>545672708You are confusing me for someone else anon
>>545672002I'd still take these comments with some skepticism rather than treat them as a proper leak. The user in question is by her own admission a diagnosed autistic person. That loves Chloe, hates DE, thinks D9 is trash etc. She has a right to feel that if she chooses. But it removes some objectivity from her offhand commentary.The best leakers aren't so emotionally attached. They give you the unbiased facts without layering in their own optimism or pessimism.
>>545673130>The best leakers aren't so emotionally attachedkek sure the last one was a guy who found a playtester through a dating app
>>545673130but she's basiacally saying she's not in the game again
>>545673720Ladydev said the same thing
>>545674128Based
>>545674128speaking of her, will she come out again now that London is getting shut down?
>>545674325"Amanda is rad."– LadyDevHeart ©
They just did de2 play tests so I don't think they will cancel it was literally a day ago. The game is still coming for us
>>545672002This is someone in that discord with cada? Pricefield haven't? No Chloe confirmed?
>>545675308Yes
>>545675308Pricefield haven?
>>545675137Amanda is bland>>545675149They fired all the marketing and management team at London, the playtests mean nothing now since there's no Lucy that can do videos announcing them anymore
>>545675137
>>545675527Unless she already filmed them all. Weren't people saying she was editing stuff
>>545675149Yeah but isn’t Square known for killing games even when they’re almost done? I guess it really comes down to how the playtests went.
>>545675681Yeah... but would SE Japan care to pull them out, knowing the next game is a flop on arrival? Usually with this kind of layoffs it means they do not want to continue the project anymore
>>545675848Kingdom Hearts: Missing Link was almost done, had script, voice acting and sections made and was supposed to come out in 2024, then they delayed the playtest and ultimately canned the game
>>545675853Cry more, shipper
>>545675853Damn. And just to again confirm there is someone on pricefield haven discord who went to the Playtest this month confirming Chloe isn't in it and it's bad for pricefield? I wonder if full leaks will come soon if people figure it's over
With Lucy out of the picture, how the hell are they even gonna market this now?
How is Cada how are the pricefielders unless the leak actually is good are they all okay p
>>545676176Fucking hell. At all? What a seriously crappy way to end this franchise.
>>545676212They won't
>>545673720From the brief portions I saw of her chat history in that room: In fairness to her I never saw her break her NDA. I did see her eventually admit that she was invited to the most recent playtest. And weeks back when she heard about the focus groups I saw her wondering about how far along the game might be and whether it's even ready to ship etc.But it's unclear whether any of that 'wondering' she was doing back then was genuine secret knowledge that she already had or if it was just her pattern of pessimism about D9 in general. She views them as incompetent so would expect to see incompetence at the playtest.She was theoretically at the playtest on Wed and Thurs. But when she got back she didn't post any breaking news in the public 'Indecent Exposure' room that they used to discuss DE. I'll give her the benefit of the doubt and hope she didn't break her NDA even in the private channel. But who knows.Was she quietly in even earlier playtests before these recent ones? It's possible. But never confirmed or validated.So her comments like 'Chloe won't be in it, the game is only alpha etc'. That might just be her being pessimistic *before* she saw anything. I haven't seen any helpful or verifiable comments from her *after* the playtest. As the other anon said it may not matter much given the state of Square.
>>545676176There's someone on Pricefield Haven who went to the playtest and someone (maybe a different person) who supposedly agreed to leak to Cada. But what they learned or leaked isn't confirmed. In fact, Cada and crew purposely told their inner-circle put out fake leaks to fuck with lisg.
>>545676480thanksnot that i care too much about her being in it, but that info is useful, considering >>545676480>put out fake leaks to fuck with lisg
>>545676953That might mean good news for pricefield actually because Cada probably wouldn't care about safeguarding if pricefield was fucked. I'd expect the pricefielders would be broken depressed and some walking away. Cada still being around at all suggests good pricefield news if game isn't canned because why safeguard bad news they're safeguarding good news in their exclusive club
>>545677368>I'd expect the pricefielders would be broken depressed and some walking awayJust as much, they wouldn’t be able to hide their joy either. So, watch
>>545677604
>>545677839Truth hurts anon, you seem desperate
>>545677368Hard to say. Before they killed their public DE channel, on the night of the first playtest they started saying things like 'Life is weird' or 'Life is sound and fury told by an idiot' and Cada said 'Hopefully tomorrow will be better'. Acting as though they were all sad and depressed. But at that point they *knew* they were being stalked by lisg. So they might have been fucking around to mess with 4chan.
>>545677925nah, i'm fineyour ship is dead, so is your franchise nowkeep crying
>>545669171LR is not a franchise game and is off topic discussion.
>>545679160Nobody discusses it here, anon
>>545679383It’s in this version of the OP still.
>>545679694that seething polack faggot baked, probably
>>545678032The only reason they'd have to fuck with this here is if its good pricefield news and Cada is feeling smug and like keeping it to their inner circle for now. I would assume bad news would be crushing crushing people like Cada that they'd give no more fucks if it was bad news. I wonder if any of the fan theories ended up true. Or maybe we are fucked all the usual suspects have been dead quiet on Twitter and reddit
>>545680985I'm watching Keno's Twitter waiting for the vague tweets about the leaks
>>545680985Wait a bit, not trying to get exposed here
Somebody has to leak it to gamingleaksandrumors on reddit
>>545684338Or what?
>>545684697Or we will be bored
>>545680452Notice how when they bake no one makes a seethe thread, yet they’ll say we’re the seethers.
>DE kills pricefield>DE2 truly finishes it off>Live Action series ends with Bayoh baby a triple
This is such a train wreck. I wonder if they'd have still got rid of London if DE was a success. It's possible square still intends to release the game especially if they just did playtests a day ago
>>545695213>It's possible square still intends to release the game especially if they just did playtests a day agoConsidering the people who decided to have a playtest just got publicly executed by SE, who knows?
>>545695213>I wonder if they'd have still got rid of London if DE was a success.I think they would've, because >>545665849
>>545695960Like I said, its not uncommon to essentially scrap a project even if it is in late stage of development. SE pretty much removed the London branch, and their only goal was to make Life is Strange gamesFrom now on, nothing is certain
>>545696365Yeah it's not looking good. Watch devs at d9 and see what those still there are saying because if their game is canceled they may be venting
>>545696570Its all coming down in the next days, with SE London being scrapped down and people like Lucy being all fired, what's the point of even relasing it?
>>545697095for lulz
>>545697238One thing is for lulz, another is publishing a sequel of a commercial flop without giving it any changes and hoping for the best
>>545699090The sequel would be a commercial success if they just canonized bay ending and went with it. Safi as the main love interest and the future lead for the whole franchise
If de had been a success Chloe was in it and a totally different do we think this would have still happened
>>545701143It probably would have done better, but I think the genre just doesn't sell anymore.
>>545700414>The sequel would be a commercial success if they just canonized bay ending and went with itThat would have been a better approach>Safi as the main love interestSafi's unstable. It's just swapping one mess for another
>>545700414Either that or what DE is now, if Dispatch or The Wolf Among Us 2 came out before it, it would've helped a lot. Could've had the very slim chance to revitalize the whole genre. There was no interest for these type of games at that point in time nor were they being made.
>>545705047Meant for >>545701143
>>545679383Hasn't gotten any discussion for 2 threads now, a bit more if you count the previous seethe threads. Lots more talk about DE and the drama now, I wonder why...
>>545706175Because that's what people actually care about. Bland crap with no drama doesn't interest anyone
>>545701143The long term sales would have been better. But to be honest I think it would have been at TC levels of sales. Which wasn't bad, but not great.
>>545705047No it wouldn't and you know why. The story was a shit mess in both. Also even more bearing news: recently ex-d9 ers are ending up at telltale, so enjoy sloppy souless UI on twau 2 too.
>>545705047Dispatch' success cannot save Life is Strange, expecially after DE happened
>>545724476Before DE the sky was the limit. But now, there is no direction DE can go that will sell a lot of games. Maybe D9 and SE fundamentally misunderstood how important, for better or worse, Chloe and Max as a couple were for the fans. Personally I did feel like Max were missing something, some foil and co-protagonist, and Safi was a very poor replacement.
>>545726218ppl liked safi, issue was lack of her involvement and her meltie that made 0 sense
>>545728570>ppl liked safiIf they did, why there are no major fanarts, engagement or interest on her character? I have not seen any new piece except from that one Daniee DEfag, but overall there have been more work with Max, Chloe even Rachel than her in those past monthsId even say the whole Safianon theory was not because people really liked Safi but because they hoped for a theory that made sense of the shitty writing and gave reconciliation to Max and Chloe together
>>545728950bc everyone pretends DE didn't happen, thats kinda the point and the community as a whole is very shallow, other than tiktok brainlets reaching 100k, the actual base community has at most 500 ppl actually active with pricefield schizos included
Sigh, the brain power of pricefielders continue to disappoint.
>>545733935Sigh, the brain power of DEfags continue to disappoint
It's weird, watching back the promo stuff for DE and looking at those pictures knowning half of the people here have been all kicked out in some way or another (Hannah and Erika don't really count)
I always had my issues with D9, but they clearly had talented people working on their animation department, that probably won't happen again
Hows cada doing? shes the first one who would spill the beans or hint what they had in the playtests
>>545737015animations was really upgraded compared to older titles, no doubt & their inner tech was cool tooit's just that the writing was the one always cracking even during bts because of stuff like:>budget>>545740972I don't understand why they still gatekeep when entire lis studio is not even a thing anymore.
>>545736717Lucy should've been kept, she did know how to manage the lis tiktok
>>545743115they fired every single person involved with Life is Strange in Squeenix London, it says a lot on what they want to do with future LiS projects. Its also worth considering the chance it was likely SE London idea to have the focus group playtest, while Kiryu and his exec in Japan were already planning ahead to axe them, as SE Europe had some bits of autonomy behind
>>545743446Hence again, there's no one to chase ppl anymore if they breach the survey nda. SE UK knew ur username & name irl pricefieldhaven, they are just gone therefor SE JP doesnt even know who u are online.
>>545733935Ten years and you’re still not used to this?>>545743115That TikTok was part of their pointless, sporadic, and totally directionless marketing campaign
>>545743893Whos going to handle TikTok for LIS next? If SE Japan is refocusing on their own stuff I don't really see them getting a proper replacement for Lucy soon enough
>>545745047The real question is whether there’s even gonna be a next LiS
the west has fallentime for life is strange fall-japanese in-house reboot
>>545745681lis wont do well in japan unless they go for literal anime show
>>545745681>time for life is strange f>all-japanese in-house rebootkekit seems so absurd yet not that far fetched to believe
>>545745471Probably not for a while or they’ll do a remake when the tv show comes out
>>545746642Speaking of, do you think D9 is sweating cold knowing what's going on with SE cutting down their contacts in London?
>>545747156Nah, their fate was sealed either way
>>545737015White people. The writers, mainly brown people. Do I need to say more.
>>545747353Go back to /pol/ you weirdo
Netflix is making a Stranger Things animated spin off series with this artstyle, and I believe the reason they choose Dont Nod over other studios is likely Lost Records and the fact they wanted for a while to make a game in that brand, before Telltale fell apart
The art director at the Montreal studio, Sam Bradley, also has ties to Netflix because he worked on Entergalactic
>>545748527>>545748754Soulless
>>545747353Aysha do dislike white people a bit. That much is clear from her Bluesky. I know you don’t mean it that way, but I do think the writers’ backgrounds made them less interested in Pricefield
>>545751426Just pointing out how the Netflix project is likely going to look design wise
>>545747353
>>545756036This is a Life is Strange board, not /tv/
>>545756036The look of disdain. So great. I hope she voices Max in the remake.
>>545762470Imagine the seething
>>545762470They would need to make her body physically accurate
>>545765194Based
yall want to know the main reason why japan axed the europe studios? they were losing money on the daily, from 50 millions in 2024 to almost 87 million dollars in 2025https://automaton-media.com/en/news/square-enixs-european-branch-reports-worsening-financial-losses-compared-to-previous-year/

>>545762470That would be great
What was your favourite moment that came out of the management Square Enix Europe has done in all those years since 2025? pic related
*since 2015, fuck
>>545771201pricefield breakup
>>545772562>pricefield breakup>kills a whole game studio> its publisher subsidiary is shut down a year after
>>545777076I know it's comfy for you to think that, but you know it's cope. The first went down because of stupidity, the second because of greed and short-sightedness.As for franchise, the downfall started with BtS flopping 7x harder than the OG. Should've pulled the plug back then
>>545771201The very steamy and very canon kiss between Max Caulfield and Amanda Thomas.
>>545778289>As for franchise, the downfall started with BtS flopping 7x harder than the OGBefore the Storm literally gave D9's opportunity within the franchise and for its short budget was a success, what are you talking about?
>>545778732Steamy and suggestive, I would say
>>545778732Corporate fanfiction isn't canon
>>545779942you seethe
>>545779835So souless it killed its studio kek
>>545780132you seethe
>>545779774That's exactly what led to the sad state we’re in now
>>545780512It was not a flop, DE on the other hand is what probably killed the videogame part of the franchise, at least until SE decides to put it out another one again after the show
>>545781589It's hard trying to explain anything to an idiot, but I'll give it one more shot.If a niche franchise entry sells 7x worse than its predecessor - in a genre that’s already on life support - that's when you pull the plug. Only a massive AAA series could recover from that, and even then, not right away
>>545779835Intimacy and understanding
>>545783720>If a niche franchise entry sells 7x worse than its predecessor - in a genre that’s already on life support Either you are stupid or you purposefully do not get it. Life is Strange came out right at the peak of Telltales, before their downfall and put an unique spin on the formula, and was by all account a massive successBefore the Storm not selling as much as LiS1 made sense because it was made on a shoestring budget and recouped that on the back of LIS1, and its purpose was to be a spin off between LiS1 and 2 development
>>545779835Safety and trust
>>545785703That guy is clueless, don’t engage with him. We don’t need another round of his bad attempts at statistics and biased interpretations.
>>545786207I remember him, its like looking at one of those schizos from /x/ the board thinking they cracked the code for some alien world or tulpa shit
>>545785703You're saying the right things, but then you veer off into the wrong conclusions. "Made on a shoestring budget and recouped that on the back of..." - and that's exactly what SE liked. Why spend 3x more like they did on LiS2 when it sells the same as cheap trash like BtS? That was the turning point. That's when the path to DE started
>>545786774That makes no sense because they ended up wasting an ungodly amount of money on DE alone, so they went back to zero again
>>545786987Exactly! There was no other way this could've ended
>>545787476If they managed better the whole thing, maybe it wouldn't have turned out the way it did
>>545756036They should cast her as Rachel Amber in that TV show
>>545790558Too controversial, they would have to pick an actress who is young and maybe not well known
>>545790558>Too controversialThat's the point
Reminder that LIS and Arcane share a fandom together
>>545790558Looks wise she’d be a good Rachel, she used to be fancasted a lot a few years ago. She’s 30 I think though so she maybe too old now
>>545791892A rachel actress should be around 18 to 21 years old which I guess there are some around
>>545788505I won't even ask what you think "managed better" means
>>545792906Maybe not rewriting the game four timesGetting better scripts with better writersHaving some quality standards
>>545791892bro go for Kylie at this point if you're gonna pick 30 y/o's
>>545793761Sweeney Sween>>>>>literal shit>>>>>gym-obsessed walled Kylie
Apparently Kate Marsh and Jefferson are rumored to appear in DE2, which is centered around Safi. Any truth to that claim?
>>545796437Yes
>>545796437tsk tsk, throwing the ball here too I suppose: what if the remake is actually DE2? max's powers going haywire & rewinding back to highschool where safi's present, jeff's not the killer anymore, etcmore like a reboot where max can:>face her past & present
>>545793256Ah, so you're still coping with the idea that everything was fine until the last game broke it all?
>>545796437Seems like bullshit to me
>>545797069Maybe they should have developed that concept in which Max can split between Bae and Bay, and it would at least made more sense for the story than whatever we ended up with. But at this point, bringing back Max was a huge mistake and they should have just kept doing anthologies
>>545796437Kate is too hard to write because she could be dead depending on your choices in the original unless they ask did Kate survive if you chose Bae
Where are the leaks?
>>545829531There are no leaks, they are just making stuff up here
>>545819474It could be a flashback, but it would still feel out of touch given their supposed goal of using DE as a reboot for the series
>>545844947that steam beta code from last thread did work for lis 2
>>545855065They said it was leaked through steamDB
cada is saying they hacked charles account on discordwhich one of your asshole did that?
Don't Nod Montreal has started hiring for the netflix game btwhttps://jobs.smartrecruiters.com/DONTNOD/744000092390925-product-eur-rice-associe-e?trid=33221b55-7baa-4189-992e-a7fac0c08950
>>545859682Wonder if the hackers will share leaks what else is the point of doing that shit
>>545844947Who’s making stuff up now? You hallucinating again?
>>545863241I have yet to see one hacker sharing proper stuff here
draw anon, if you are still following lisg make your presence known
>>545863558'you have no proof' faggot strikes again

Vote for Lost Records and Olvia/Swonn anonshttps://www.behindthevoice.net/gamefestgameawards
>>545897585No
>>545900176You seethe
Is Charles that kid who's obsessed with LEGO and Pricefield? fkn fandom you can't get bored here lmfao
>>545900176Well, that's fair
>>545902489yup
>>545903259This obsession for a rando is reaching kiwifarms level of deranged desu
>>545903760ntathat's not some rando, that's the guy who made the server. you really think stuff like picrel happens without social engineering
So lemme get this straight, no playtest leaks, Square London’s in shambles, and DE2 might be dead in the water. That about right?
LingYao21, you seethe
>>545905320holy kekmaybe don't bait 4chin with leaks if you don't want something like this to happen
>>545905628>no playtest leaks Maybe Cada and her inner circle knows something, but they aren't going to share it for now>Square London’s in shambles>DE2 might be dead in the waterAll the execs and management team in London, from our boys like Lucy, Izzy the hooker and nepo baby Joshua, are now looking for a new job, and all of this happened in the last day of playtests. The only thing thats still coming is the TV show, but the game fate is unknown
>>545762470Why bruh.Keep in mind she whored out with a nigger so it is hillarious
>>545906824Wait, they got the axe the day after the playtest?Fuck… this is grim.
>>545907048Perfect. Spot-on for Rachel. One look and you get why the whole school was down bad, and how she bagged everyone from Frank to Jefferson
>>545907575Square relased their medium term plan report on the same day they were holding the last playtest session in Los AngelesThey had already decided that London and the rest of their western workforce had to be gone
>>545907912Literally too old and too recognizable, there's the need for a newcomer actress for the project
>>545905950jesusbitch needs to see a doctor asap
>>545669342I will never forgive them for wasting the premise of a grown up Max on such a shit sequel.
>>545905628The lack of any leaks from the focus group is interesting. Things went so poorly?
>>545913710Even the tiniest hint would’ve been something, doesn’t need specifics, just whether it’s good or bad. If it’s bad, I’m betting the whole thing’s canned.
>>545917519Maybe its canned already. Wonder if Ladydev will ever reply to whats going on at this point
>>545780132You might not know this, but that's so fucking annoying.I can picture Chloe doing that as a sort of joke at the worst possible moments.
>>545924608she will eventually, she just needs to figure out herself what's going
>>545926150It's kinda cute in comics, not much when you are the one receiving it
>>545900176pricefielders need to be locked upthey have the audacity to claim victim
>>545932424true. and that anon's right. it costs nothing to vote, especially since i haven't played the rest. but nope, not doing it
Do any of you anons know any good chasemarsh fics?
>>545937409I never understood the apparent allure of bully-bullied -romance. That can't be healthy or even realistic. I'd suggest therapy.
>>545938351The allure is that people can overcome their faults and stop being assholes/ pushovers and kiss.It's neither healthy or realistic but it's cute.
>>545900176LMAO these people
>>545939689Anon's right, seek help
>>545939689So basically something like that Stockholm syndrome
I'm actually tentatively excited for the TV show, and I think you're a bunch of cynics for disowning it. End of the F***ing World was very charming and funnily written. My real hesitation is just that good writing can't save bad directing, and the director of EOTFW/IANOWT is very good and elevated both scripts, so I just hope the showrunner lady either gets him or someone equally talented for this. But as for the cynicism to the whole concept... why?>the "legacy" of LiS has already been ruined by D9, so if this is bad, ignoring it should be easier than ever - just throw it in the DE bin in your mind>This has a chance to improve on LiS's shit cringe dialogue; the writing of EOTFW gives me hope>again, good showrunnerI'm hype desu
>>545947664Shippers got that terminal dissatisfaction brainrot.Show's not even out yet, could be good or trash, doesn't matter. We already know the meltdown's coming
>>545949030Why melt down no matter how bad it is when DE already exists? Hell, I compartmentalized LiS 1 off in my mind as the only "true" canon after BtS's pseudo-character assassination of Max. LiS 1 is all that matters. I felt basically nothing when DE threw Chloe in the garbage. I'll feel nothing if this show is bad. But if it's good and even improves on some of the game's flaws, great!
>>545947664>But as for the cynicism to the whole concept... why?Video game fans expect all adaptations to be total shit. They have been this way for decades. I'd actually be more surprised if there was widespread optimism.
>>545949856>BtS's pseudo-character assassination of MaxWow, actual consistency>DE threw Chloe in the garbageShe is garbage>I'll feel nothing if this show is bad>But if it's good, great!I was talking about fundamentals, stuff that doesn't depend on whether the show's good or trash. Like normies flooding the fandom. You people always find a reason to seethe
>>545950316Game adaptations have historically been shit because of either retards doing the adapting, source material that doesn't lend itself well to a show/movie, or both. LiS obviously lends itself well to a miniseries, and the showrunner is a good choice.>>545950939Kys
>>545952302cry more, shipper
>>545947664If you're setting the bar that low then there shouldn't be any complaints nor disappointments. The current production crew is abysmal.
>>545952651Is it? I didn't think anyone besides Charlie Covell had been announced.
>>545952596Easy there, anon. Their ship died a year ago, and now they had to bury the whole franchise too. They're switching to the show out of pure despair
this game has a general wtf ?you're all transbians, aren't you?
>>545968437'fraid so
>>545947664Funnily enough I've found that a lot of members on lisg are the ones most willing to give the show a chance. Charlie Covell's shows have been rather well received, the Amazon creative rep helped create Paper Girls, Margot Robbie's company Lucky Chap has been nominated and won awards for a bunch of projects, and the Dmitri guy from Storykitchen somehow helped turn the Sonic movie trilogy from initial skepticism to genuine fan enthusiasm. It's always possible they'll manage to shit the bed, but from a track-record perspective there's potential among the team assembled.
>>545976984That's the only reassurance I have with the show, but even if those people have a solid track record and Dmtri is able to negotiate for the best with SE there's no proof it will be good
I've only played life is strange. I know I should play before the storm cause it tells you more about rachel but should I play any of the other games since they don't got Max and the rest of the characters?
>>545977212I think when we get an actual teaser or trailer we'll be in a better position to judge. That might not be for awhile though if they don't start filming until Summer 2026.
>>545977883>it tells you more about rachelall you need to know is that she's a whore. now you can skip it and play the other games
>>545977883IMO you can avoid the Deck Nine games, as they are usually mid and go for Life is Strange 2, games a different beast but the first episode is free so you check it out
>>545977883If you want to play them sure, no one's forcing you
So, what's the deal with Japan taking full control on Life is Strange?
hello. I'm visiting this general. what is everyone's opinion on Double Exposure? I just played it and really liked it, but I have a feeling that OG LiS fans wouldn't like it.
>>545990228It's okay at best but it's squandered potential mostly.
>>545990228Its ass and a naked attempt at a cashgrab using Max. It has fucked up Deck Nine and SE London, so at least thats a positiveUsually the people who like DE are low IQ or fawn on how hot Max is, which one are you?
>>545992079>come to thread>ask innocuous question>get called low IQ/a coomeralright i've already overstayed my welcome
>>54599215890% of people who are positive about DE here are either trolling or post coomer bait. Sorry if I offended you, but I'm curious to know what do you liked about DE to be fair
>>545993179>90% of people who are positive about DE here are either trolling or post coomer bait
>>545986014Are they even taking whole control? SE still could outsource it to someone else.
>>545993717D9 is a gonerAll management in London is out, no Lucy, Izzie or Joshua we love to hate anymoreThe show can save the series but at that point who knows
Realistically, DE2’s probably on ice or completely cancelled after the layoffs. The only hope now is a quiet digital release with almost no fanfare, or Square passing it off to another studio. It’s too bad nothing leaked from the playtests, I’d really like to know what went wrong.
>>545994913>we love to hateYou’re the only one still obsessed with them. Nobody gives a damn about those clownsrp
>>545954040>they had to bury the whole franchise tooYou forgot to mention they played a major role in killing it.They didn't get the first game, derailed every discussion into meaningless queerbaiting, and basically turned the fandom into a queer cope factory. Flooded socials with retarded fanart and wattpad-tier fanfics, forcing the devs into pandering mode. Threw a meltdown over LIS2, scared off the actual devs and handed the IP to clowns. Then spent years begging for a direct sequel, fully knowing SE would do what SE always does - run focus groups, realize their fave isn't that popular, and butcher everything else.Poetic justice. No tears.
>>545997019>Its the pricefielders faults Anon, this is a nice story but we know last time in the focus group as told by some dude majority of people hated DE. You are just defending a big corporation and being salty about it, because ultimately you don't care about the series. Fuck off
>>545996047>DE2’s probably on ice or completely cancelled after the layoffs>reading Square's document analysis>"... As a result of reviewing development titles and development structures in overseas operations, a restructuring expense of 11.8 billion yen isexpected to be recorded in the fiscal year ending March 2026."yeah they saw the mess and decided to close down the london team
>>545998130>media literacy
>>545999253You don't care about Life is Strange, you care about trolling people. Thats why you shift all the blame to the fans and not the big greedy corpo who wanted easy money out of Max's return
>>545997019brutal
>>545998130>>545999998I know it's hard for you to grasp that DE was just the natural outcome of everything I listed.Plus, I've consistently shown how people like you never cared about the franchise and actively helped kill it. So, keep crying, your tears are delicious
>>546000086
>>545990228objectively the second best game in the franchise after the first one. bts is just too unnecessary and tc is too boring
>>546003440>I HECKIN love slop!
>objectively the second best game
>>546003732Well, they explained themselves.I couldn't finish either BtS (dropped it mid-episode 3) or TC (tapped out after ep 4).That says more about the franchise
>>546004952Then you are a tourist who enjoy slop
>>546005517Here since late 2015.LiS1 is the favorite game.You?
>>546005841I don't believe you, but if you want to know I've been here since 2018, starting from LIS1 to BtS. Dropped 2 because it wasn't exciting, kinda liked TC but felt off, and fully refunded DE
>>546003440agreedpricefielders hate change and want to live in fantasy land
>>546008430>hate change>bring back Max and fails to respect LIS1 in an attempt to soft reboot the franchise>kills its studio and the producer subsidiary in the processkek
>>546008430pricefield is a fantasy land.and they had to learn it the hard way, kek
LiS TikTok’s still alive, they’re reposting and replying to comments today. Wasn’t Lucy running it?
>>546011905>Under UK law, Square Enix must undergo redundancy consultations to see if any jobs can potentially be saved, so the final number in the UK could be smaller. >It is not yet clear which teams were impacted by this, or to what extentLucy can still access the account in this period, but she'll has to leave it anyway as SE wants to close down the studio
>>546011905she was indeed, but like >>546012940 said, she had her personal phone connected to the account & I totally see her still running the account as a hobby
>>546014713People should take a look when she'll have to leave it, which would take a while if SE Japan has to deal with the british bureaucracy first, and I assume there's going to be a period of inactivity and maybe someone in Japan will take control of it in the future
>>546003440isn't this the photo in the toilet DE rug from temu?

>>546021003Absolute perfection
https://youtu.be/jyjnnScbNGg?si=jenEeX-75QOhXA74The voice actress of Max in Japan sure is a big fan of Pricefield
>>545669342>younger than most posters>still gets called a hagExplain this
>>546033957They don't think, they just parrot
>>546033957Creepy men who won’t date women over 25
>>546037398>women over 25They're literally the hottest
>>546033892Heh. If the live-action show actually succeeds and Square JP decides on a LiS1 remake in-house in Japan, I wonder if she'll do the motion capture instead of Hannah.
>>546033892She's a completely clueless being. Even by VA standards. Even by Japanese VA standards
Why are people hating pricefielders or other shippers? Fandom shippers can't kill franchises, so why blame them?
>>546043648they are too dumb and too unhinged
>>546044231Anon, you are mentally unwell, seek help. You are obsessing with people that will never hurt your life, all for brownie internet points on fucking 4chan of all places, might as well make your own clique like Cada does
>>546044231Im trying to read this wall of text, and I dont know who this tumblr fella is, but "two pricefielders were mean to me so now I hate pricefield" makes me think they are very young and impressionable. But they also refuse to engage in the very noticeable sides of their shipping, like Max who sees Warren as a creep stalker in her nightmare regardless if she kiss him or not, defending Max abuse of her power in relationship in DE, trying to justify Vinh's creep act and Nathan... yeah, not a serious person if this is the bar we are dealing with.
>>546046541cont. this is a waste of time because anon believe two unstable anonymous teens from tumblr with ridicolous opinions give them a free pass to prove their point against pricefielders. What a tool lmao
>>546044231God Almighty!!
>>546033892I appreciate how emotional she was about it. It's always interesting to hear about how much thought actors put into their roles.
>>546043648Pricefielders in the first weeks after DE's release:>Review bombed the game>Harassed the devs>Doxxed the ex-devs>Racially insulted Asian people>Racially insulted Indigenous people>Attacked Michel>Attacked Katy Bentz (of all people)>Upset Hannah (of all people)>Coordinated in group chats to vote against Hannah at TGA>Attacked DE fanfics' writers>Enraged even the Rule 34 community (you really had to work for that one)>Attacked everyone who said something nice about DE on any social media (they still do it, as you can see on the screenshot above)>Created false narratives (plotholes atricles etc. with the shit that has already been picked apart on Reddit)Aside from all that, totally sane and lovely people
>>546048502>Rachel was groomedProbably true with Jefferson, but with Frank it does seem like it was somehow mutual, as his love for Rachel seemed real, but their relationship was probably on the abusive side, as hes a dangeroud drug dealer>Rachel didn't cheatIf you want to see her from Chloe perspective, yeah Rachel did cheat on her. The whole point is Rachel could have been still alive had she not lying to Chloe about her relationships with Frank and Jefferson, like its not that hard to understand>Vinh hides behind a mask to overcompensateNow this is an excuse you would see applied to defend your average media personality being caught in sexual miscounduct allegations >you cant handle a woman wanting an healthy relationship If I took some space off, and learned the person I was hooking up has shifted to another version of me who is still available for kissing, I would be weirded the fuck out and upset they did not had any type of mutual respect for what I did. And yes, Max doing that is creep behaviour and she should know better expecially after LIS1Also, this person would not put the same amount of "understanding context" to Chloe the way she does to Nathan
>>546050885Keep being salty about your 30 million waste of money
>>546044231Wow, deja vu. They really just parrot each other and refuse to acknowledge different viewpoints.
>>546051193Nah, I'm fine. That was not my money, and my ship is not dead, lmao
I want to fuck the shit out of Hag Max
>>546051024>Rachel did cheat on herI agree on the point about Rachel being dishonest with Chloe, but you can't cheat on someone that you're not in a relationship with. I don't think they ever even hooked up.
>>546052784Get in line
>>546052784
>>546051756Since the series is dead, all ships are at the bottom of the ocean
>>546043648>Fandom shippers can't kill franchisesHere's >>545997019 good explanation how they helped to do it
>>546059521guhhh
>>546059521amanda is banging that
>>546059521imagine her stepping on your cock
>>546068525
>>546050885pricefielders don't deserve SHIT
>>546069621Lucky gal
>>546053629Tecnically, Rachel lied in many ways with Chloe, to the point its fair to consider that a bit of a cheating
>>546056749>its not a big greedy corpo chasing a short sight profit who's in the wrong>its the fans!!!Low IQ corpo shill
>>546068525Chloe is banging that
>>546003440it was quite good actually. then episode 4 came.
>>546096925It was quite good until you stop and think about the story more than two seconds, then it falls apart
Mixtape got delayed to 2026 sadly
>>546059521Cosmic injustice that they ran out of money now of all times. Max was viable>>546068525Few things in this world paint a more striking picture than intimacy between two toned women in that late‑20s/early‑30s prime
>>546106353Maybe that means more content? Hopefully.
>>546107636t. coomer brained IQ slop consumer
>>546108728you seethe
>>546108464I don't think more content, I think its more on Annapurna having fired all their main publishing staff, and now are reorganizing. It could be also possible they got some production issues, but by the look of it Mixtape seems done
>>546108787No matter how bullshit you repeat, the truth is always the same anon
>>546108984>the truth is always the sameyeah, your ship is dead
>>546108850Probably the former. 5 hours of content doesn't seem "much" but it shouldn't necessitate a delay development-wise after this long. Or, I hate to say it, maybe they're biding their time to see how Dispatch does before committing to a release window.
>>546109323There have been more Pricefield fanarts than Max X Amanda stuff after DE came out. It's not going to stop us, as much as you try to
>>546109617Probablem is at this point Mixtape got even less marketing buzz than Lost Records got and its delay only make it look like a miss, which is a shame.
>>546111761>MUH FANART
>>546113680
>>546044231>Amanda is a nobody compared to MUH CRHOLE fucking die mad you vile little ratHoly fucking seethe!!
>>546118573But that's just the truth. There's like one dedicated artist who is a DEfag and she's the only one D9 repost because otherwise many fanartists have either moved on or do not do DE stuff at all, apart for the Pricefield reunion stuff
>>546121327>ship died like a bitch>character thrown out of the franchise like garbage>BUT MUH FANARTPathetic
>>546044231>>546118573Full deja vu of those decade‑old SJW vids where calm person holding it together while the brain‑rotted SJW screeches the same low‑IQ shit mixed with spit and insults
>>546123215It's not an own you brag about those old ass "muh triggered SJW" videos, it makes you look like the true balding uncle here
>>546122298>30 million dollars flops>kills Deck Nine>kills the Squeenix Europe/London studioChloe did so much and she wasnt even there lol
>>546123573>Max's canonically stuck in Caledon foreverKek
>>546124278If you think that corporate fanfiction is a own, have fun
Be honest, is there any chance DE2 still sees the light of day? Would suck if this is really the end.
>>546123481NTA,Unironically today’s pricefielders are literally the same people who were SJWs ten years ago. The shrieking fat glasses aunties and the balding Reddit uncs.So, which one are you?
>>546137172After what SE did to their London office, I wouldn't put money on it.
Been out of the loop for months because this thread got depressing as fuck. Any news on the franchise future?
>>546141606Tl;dr SE goes full asian, D9 is fucked and perhaps there will be a TV show that will give fuel for franchise to return.
>>546124278Amanda's gonna take good care of her, no doubt. Those hands aren't just for show
>>546146246t. balding coomer
>>546142021pricefielders will dismiss the show if it ends with bay (which it will)
>>546158880First of all, you don't even know if the shows going to be a success, and desu it will follow an original plotline rather than one ending after another
>>546158880Nobody gives a shit what those schizos are gonna do. Shows are a whole different game, they’re made for a totally different audience, same as TLOU and Fallout
>>546161679TLOU shit the bed hard in the second season, which was an adaptation of a game that also shit the bed hard.
>>546162290The main criticism for TLOU season 2 of the show is that it messes Ellie' character and fuck up even the best parts of the original game
>>546161679You seem obsessed with Pricefield, even more than pricefielders themselves, at this point you should touch grass a bit
>>546159125I expect a totally new ending. The ending is easily the worst part of the original game and, while it's risky to try something new, it's absolutely possible to improve on it.It also depends on what they want to do for a potential season 2. If they want to keep Max's story going, bae or a new ending are much more likely. If they just want one season or plan to do LIS2 next, bay makes sense.
>>546161679yes, the game audience's just too small for the show>>546165243nta, but you're paranoid, anon. seek help>>546166130>I expect a totally new endingthe probability of this is extremely high, i would say, for the same reason - it's absolutely not suitable for tv audience
>>546166130Since Arcane was such a success, and there's apparently massive demand for Wednesday to end up with Enid, it might be possible for the LiS show to lean on bae. But since the current political climate in the US is questionable, they might try to play it safe. But no matter what, LiS is one of the few shows where bae would fit better
>>546167410Bay would be a disaster for word of mouth, not just from current fans, but wlw fans hate the "bury your gays" trope and that's going to be a big part of their target audience.Amazon is in the Trump sphere, but they're currently more obsessed with trans than gays, so it can probably slip through.
>>546172408Current fans don’t mean shit just because they look small in number, and “word of mouth” isn’t even a real concept for projects of this scale. As for the Trump‑sphere, it goes way deeper than just some random gays
>>546173564Word of mouth is still useful, whenever you like it or not, and Life is Strange surely could use some of it
>>546174751Pure cope. Look at the TV projects based on games with way bigger fanbases and way stronger reactions. It doesn’t work like that
>>546177064A TV show would still need its own good word of mouth on its own to generate interest in, otherwise it wouldn't get audience in. Arcane was a success because it told a story that stood out in spite of being tied with League of Legends and wasn't a simple commercial for the game.
>>546172408They're not going to make it appeal strictly for the alphabet goons obviously; alienating 90% of the population is an asinine move.
>>546178487>alphabet goonsWhy are you even here and not on /pol/?
>>546167410>LiS is one of the few shows where bae would fit better>>546172408>Bay would be a disasterLMAOJust watch, you clowns
>>546180176Having it bay would just be a cheap version of The Butterfly Effect
>>546146756I'm a woman, dumbass.Funny how this isn't the first time I've had to say it. Guess some brains here are miswired

>>546240539They are better at drawing that you will ever be
>>546241289You seethe
>>546207486Based on LiS I don't get the impression anything like that happened.Even leaving aside that it would most likely have been referenced or talked about in some way if it had happened, it doesn't fit with Rachel's portrayal: mysterious, shrewd, keeps people at arm's length.And even if it's more about fanfic than what the writers had in mind, I think it's more interesting if Rachel remains larger than life and unreachable.Based on BtS it could be anything from them kissing when Chloe sheepishly asked after the play (too cute, Amberprice >>>>>>) to them having hot steamy sex every day after school for months, or at least every time Rachel stayed over at Chloe's house, with Rachel telling her she loved her and they'd be together forever.
>>546053629>Max: Did you guys have a lot of sleepovers?>Chloe: As many as possible.Oh lawd they fuckin
>>546241539Just because they sleeped over doesn't mean they necessarily fucked. In fact, I fully expect Rachel to have more sex with Jefferson or Frank than with Chloe
>>546241652God, you're so fucking dumb it's unbelievable
>>546241759Not an argument. You lost.
>>546241915That was the other anon you were replying to. You're even dumber than I initially thought
>>546241539Why would Chloe have had a boy toy phase if she was having regular, emotionally and physically fulfilling sex with the love of her life Rachel Amber?It sounds more likely that they were just spending as much time as possible with one another, or rather, that Chloe was spending as much time as possible with Rachel and Rachel enjoyed spending some time with Chloe.

>>546241539>>546241652>>546242347I think Chloe and Rachel hooked up a couple times but not to the extent Rachel was sexually involved with Frank and Jefferson and it likely happened within the first 18 months of them meeting.

>>546315248They're really great for your quads and hamstrings, for both strength and tone. You can really feel that shit burn but for calves, I'm not really sure. I could be imagining things but I feel like it's helped me run better, not that I can run that long anyways.

Been outta the loop for a bit. Can someone catch me up on whatever the hell’s been happening?
>>546513686-Square UK is being liquidated throwing the future of LiS into doubt-A Double Exposure sequel has been worked on and may even be close to completion. But we don't know if it will even release- A LiS live-action show is still coming and might either resurrect the IP or kill it for good depending on how its received
>>546513686Pricefield is dead. SE is reforming the EU branch, everyone in creative tied to LiS got axed. D9 shrunk to barely 60 heads and is stuck in limbo. DE2 cleared playtests, supposedly not that bad, but still far from ready. And obviously release chances don’t depend on that anyway. Word is the show starts filming summer 2026. Nothing solid on remakes yet
>>546514785>Pricefield is deadStill got more fanarts than any of the new characters tho>SE is reforming the EU branch, everyone in creative tied to LiS got axedThey are literally planning to close down UK and US studios not reform them lol>DE2 cleared playtests, supposedly not that bad, but still far from readyLast time we heard Cada had a guy on her discord who went there but nothing more was told, you are saying stuff with no evidence for it
>>546516356>fanartsGrow up>They are literally planning to close downIt’s the layoff order that’s more important here>Last time we heard Cada had a guyIf you need Cada for info digging, then just keep asking her
>>546517750>If you need Cada for info digging, then just keep asking herYou made a claim before, you better provide info on where did you find it or I'll just assume you are taking shit from a butt. The only thing I know is that some anon was stalking Cada's discord by posting screenshot of it like they were some kiwifarm freak>It’s the layoff order that’s more important hereLiterally one of their executives in London stated they are closing down in their Linkedin goodbye post, its quite clear. The only time they have left is the UK law process for redundancy/job savings
>>546519473>you better provideI don’t owe you shit. Anon wanted the latest, I posted what I knew myself>one of their executives in London stated in their Linkedin goodbye post>UK law process for redundancyMeans the layoff order is explained exactly by that
>>546520995Anon, you went here and said>DE2 cleared playtests, supposedly not that bad, but still far from readyand you have now the balls to get pissy when people ask you were did you get that? Don't be a stuck up bitch and just say everything if you know stuff, or I'll just assume you are as much of a shitposter as the ones who made those hilarious greentexts back in 2024
>>546521542Couldn’t care less about what you assume. When I think it’s worth sharing something concrete, I’ll drop it with the usual pic attached so it’s obvious
>>546523053If you did not care, you wouldn't have replied. Dont be a bitch and share if you are telling the truth, its not like we are losing anything here
>>546514785>Pricefield is deadBased
>>546532503>Chloe is character assassinated>Deck9 and SE London get fucked as a resultkarma is a bitch
>>546538476D9 got killed by dumb leadership. SE London went down to greed, management stupidity and comms issues as a non‑JP corpo branch. Neither has anything to do with the character you mentioned
>>546539169you should laught about it anon

>>546617379>>546616153All gooners must go to their specific generals: /gig/ - Genshin Impact General/nikg/ - Nikke General/mrg/ - Marvel Rivals General/zzz/ - Zenless Zone Zero General/dna/ - Duet Night Abyss General/bag/ - Blue Archive General /mjg/ - Mahjong General
>>546616153holy hot mama!
>>546616153>Caledon polaroids
bullshit, max would not be shaved bare. trimmed bush at most.
>>546620748there was a bush variant in the WIP's, i believe
>>546620452flopped game that killed its studio and not canon
The most annoying things about DEfags in this general is that they are all low iq gooners, they don't care about the franchise going to shit or the characters getting destroyed as long as they can jerk off to Max. I miss the old /lisg/, at least the threads discussing Blackwell characters like Dana or Brooke were fun and wholesome, this is just bottom of the barrell shit
>>546622545>I miss the old /lisg/Then you can just fuck off from here
Oh lol, now they’re even pretending anyone ever gave a damn about Dana or Brooke. Most people here could barely tell Dana from Juliet - and half the time spelled her wrong as Juliette. Brooke only ever got talked about like: look, yellow coochie ready to jump his dick, while he’s busy thirsting over that shy art‑hoe Max. So spare me the cope about how it was all fun and wholesome discussions about those two. I’ve been here way too long
>>546629690You creations will never be liked Aysha. No one will ever hire you again
>>546631875>AyshaOh anon, seriously, get help. It’s literally in your best interest
>>546622545Indeed, we're just in a doldrum cesspit between games again at the moment.Hopefully, the next game won't be complete shit and give people back the comfy feels. There might be a bit of discussion about the upcoming books.
>>546635052Except with most of Square London being laid off, there’s really no guarantee that DE2 will release. D9 might’ve been contractually obligated to make it but that doesn’t mean Square Japan will release it. Kind of a shame we never got any solid info on how the playtests went.
>>546629690>oldfag>Amanda picrelBased
>>546629690First of all, I don't believe you are an old fag, second I was there when anons were talking about the shipping with Dana and Juliet, how Warren is a player that cucks Brooke regardless of timeline and the shipping between Victoria with Taylor or ChaseMarshAnd last, you don't give a shit about Life is Strange going down the gutter because of the game that gave your new favourite Pucca looking cumsock so fuck off and sybau
>>546636331There's the anon who claims to know everything but gatekeep everything to themselves, as if that makes them a credible source
>>546642771you seethe
>>546616153delicious
>>546640812>I don't believe you are an old fagHere’s the pic I first dropped here back in 2015, then later dug up the post with the location and explanation of what’s going on. If you’re an oldfag, you should remember. I used it a lot to mark myself>anons were talking about the shipping with Dana and JulietThat happened too. But most of the time it was talked about the way I said>you don't give a shit about Life is Strange going down the gutterOh sure, because it was me who threw a tantrum over LiS2, driving out a decent dev. And it was me again begging for a direct sequel for ten years, knowing exactly who would make it>your new favourite Pucca looking cumsock so fuck offSeems like you’re mad jealous, anon
>>546656146>Seems like you’re mad jealous, anonWhy would I be jealous of "female love interest with stock romance novel personality"? But again, you seem spiteful and bitter, so even if you are an old fag you have done nothing but act like your average boomer
>>546657558>Why would I be jealous ofComprehension isn’t really your strong suit. Jokes included>you seem spiteful and bitterWhy would I be? I literally laid out my stance in the last reply and explained why the current situation with the franchise wasn’t some mystery to me. You don’t rage over obvious stuff.The only thing I can’t stand is that ‘I miss the old /lisg/’, ‘things were better before’ cope. That’s always just you making it up for yourself
>>546629690>picrelWife material
>>546662002she was designed to be a love interest first, character second,no wonder she does well with starved gooners
>>546660657Anon, you are long winded but ultimately you are just a bitter fuck who blame the fandom over things that were never into their control. SE London was the one deciding the shots and convincing Japan they were going to make millions, only to being shelved themselves in the end, LIS fans may throw a tantrum but the ultimate material act was all on SE and D9
>>546667607>she was designed to be a love interest first, character secondsorry to disappoint, fgt, but nope. do your homework before posting, or just gtfo
>>546622545>they are all low iq goonersThis has been one of the strangest developments over the years to me, it used to be super taboo to post stuff like cropped SFM porn here and if you did you'd immediately get told to fuck off back to /v/, but as of the last year or two it has been normalized starting with all the Rachel porn spam
>>546669023Getting mad over a mid character of a 30 million dollar flop is surely something>>546669428They seemingly all forget there's a thread for that in the /aco/ board

>>546671552Whos more of a clown, those gooners who defend a flopped mediocre soft reboot or the anons who call a spade what it is?

>>546667607Why do pricefield shippers only ever think about horny shit?
>>546676301>happy people, actually enjoying what life gives them>I love corpo slop! It makes me feel so happy!Thats what you are
>>546678610Chloe had all of those, she had her issues but when Max needed her she supported and respected her, as much as you still prop that failed character that is basically outranked by fans of the sex pest Vinh
>>546682061lolLMAO even
I know y'all hate Adnan but this is interesting: x.com/AdnanRiaz9/status/1989837976617247120/photo/2Mocap animator leaving D9, their resume had "Unannounced Project [In Production]" before, but it was updated it and now its been removed, pic on the left is before and right after
>>546683546$76 million of extraordinary loss for restructuring and reviewing development titles already told the fate of DE2.
>>546683546So I'm assuming it's cancelled then?
>>546685241It seems like the case>>546686060If more former D9 people start crossing out DE2 or unannounced project mentions going foward then its likely so
>>545669342If they had made her a twist villain from the universe where she joined the vortex club and chloe got crippled they could've had their fucking fan fic slop
>>546685241They'll release it in order to recoup at least something. Cancelling a licensed game is more costly than cancelling a game developed by their own studio, as there's bound to be cancellation penalties

>>546740743Uber
>>546740743>>546742747They want to hate fuck Amanda
>>546752220Because being seen as a sexual toy or conventionally attractive is the only remarkable trait she's perceived for. Notice how there's been tons of discussion about Chloe and Victoria as characters on top of smut content, yet barely anything about Amanda apart from the gooner stuff
>>546760558You still haven't shown the brains or the respect for anyone to take you seriously.That Victoria bit was hilarious, though. But it's simple - you weren't seething over her, so now you can pretend you 'discussed' her seriously
>>546765173Anon this is 4chan nobody care about how serious you pretend to be
>>546752220Coomer Amanda art from pricefield coom-artists is just hate getting processed through horny imagery. Pretty safe for the fragile shipper psyche, since it's wrapped in 'creativity'.At first the hate and fixation were too strong, they wouldn't even mention her. But the more they hated, the deeper she stuck in their heads. Eventually the hate morphed into sexualization, cause their brains couldn't keep Amanda in the ignore zone. Basically admitting she's in their thoughts no matter what. So they sexualize her to ease the tension and cope with her presence. Same deal as those SJW women back in 2016 dreaming erotic Trump dreams - except that was unconscious, and this is deliberate after a year of seethe
