The first game and the Before the Storm are hella good. You play as an American school girl. You rebel against your parents, skip class, pull pranks, and other juvenile shit. The over arching story is about the disappearance of a girl named Rachel. The only liberal crap is an optional lesbian relationship and the glorification of weed.

I highly recommend avoiding the other games. They're chore simulators that occasionally take a break to discuss white privilege and trans rights. There was a controversy recently where the developers rebelled because the lead told them to stop stuffing politics into the games. They accused him of being a neo-nazi for not wanting every character to be gay. I think that should give you an idea of how extremely woke those sequels are.
>>
>>719521029
I can't do that because replaying Life is Strange is always the correct choice.
If you do want to switch it up a bit, the game (original at least, no idea about remaster) looks great in black and white by setting your screen saturation to 0. Most games, even ones with in-game black and white modes like LA Noire and The Last of Us, are nearly unplayable and look like garbage desaturated because there's no contrast in the gray tones. Life is Strange's more stylized art direction and fixed camera angles for all of the conversations give the visuals way more contrast than most games, so it looks pretty good.

I usually won't spend more than $35 on records since I think they're overpriced, but I ended up paying over $70 to get an independent store in Britain to ship me the soundtrack when it got reissued since I missed the US release back in 2018 and it's gone way up in price since then. It's just the music Daughter wrote and recorded for the game, not the other licensed songs, but it includes a lot of stuff that was missing from the CD that came with the limited edition of the game.

Life is Strange is not for seeing the effects of your choices on the characters in the game, it's for seeing their effects on yourself. Of course nothing you do in-game matters, the game ceases to exist the moment you turn it off, what matters is how you felt about it. I bet you thought it was bad that the game about making choices ends by asking you to make a choice instead of selecting an ending for you.

>>719529965
Basic i know because its like the theme, but right way around. It just captures the sad teenage feeling of the whole thing. And then black flies. The song at the final moment of farewell. I dont listen to the soundtrack in my spare time. But when playing the game the music just sucks you into the mood of the characters so incredibly. It all just leaves such a good impression.

untrue. Double Exposure is only canon if you choose to believe it is. source: Michael Koch. Square threw DE in the garbage when they decided to make it a dating sim, like True Colors. LiS and BtS were never intended to be dating sims.

Yeah I watched that monstrosity at like 3AM and it completely destroyed my brain. Max screamed "CHLOEEE" every 10 seconds and there was a 5-minute fart solo set to reversed Daughter tracks. Peak post-ironic art. I think I ascended when Jefferson turned into a PS1 model and started breakdancing while Time Baby from Gravity Falls explained quantum mechanics.
>>
>>719521029
I get extremely nostalgic thinking about this game and listening to the soundtrack. I played it when it came out, I had just graduated highschool myself. Really makes me miss the simplicity of those times. Waterfalls can make me tear up if I just sit there and listen to it, reflecting on my past. It really captures the vibe of the Pacific Northwest small town so well, really made me want to move to Washington or Oregon. Great game. I miss it. Don't think I could ever replay it though.

>>719535378
>why? you think its a relic of its time?
Maybe, like the other anon that replied to you said, it was lightning in a bottle. They can't even seem to recreate it without fucking up. Every other installment has been a big disappointment, nothing moreso than Double Exposure. It was a game filled with leftwing ideologies but always challenged them internally with their own characters, and was never preachy about it. Everything that came after felt like a lecture, or was so gay it was offputting. It's also something that's intangible and hard to put into words as to why it works as well as it does, whether it's just me being blinded by nostalgia, and that I'd upturn my nose at the game if it was released today, or that is encompassed SOUL or /vibes/ that one can't quite put into words. Either way it gripped me, and I still think about it ten years later.

Max is boring, Chloe’s a prick, Sean & Daniel are brats and Alex’s some forgettable bitch.

Life is Strange was my American Teenage Girl AGP phase... and it was KINO
>>
Thinking back on it it's total shit, even at what it's trying to be it's just fucking awful. The Tine Peaks ripoff plot is inane nonsense, the characters are flat and one dimensional, the setting is just Twin Peaks, the resolution is offensive to the entire idea of choice in games, and it's clear the writers never had any idea where it was supposed to go in the first place.

It's success comes entirely from centering the focus of the game around cute young White girls, that's it and that's entirely accidental because you can see that every game DontNod has made since hasn't been about that.

View it as a story and that you are choosing the main characters' happiness over the town's immaterial unhappiness. It's like Cabin In the Woods where the writer chose the characters over the world for which they were meant to die.

jokes on you, i only played Chapter 1 in 2015. it wasn't till last November that i played the whole game and BtS for the first time, so it's all fresh to me. i think where you're off base is sincerely trying to compare a David Lynch series made for adults, to a visual novel meant for teenagers and a YA audience.

But it isn't sacrificing yourself heroically. It's fucking sitting there while your friend dies.

this game is a great litmus test for the sort of person i would want to befriend.

if you would choose a town full of people you hadn't seen for 5 years, because you were living in a different state, over your best friend – after the week of trauma bonding and reconnecting they underwent together – you are a fucking lunatic, i do not wanna be homies, and you should not have her powers.

People who miss this trip me out. Max watches Chloe die multiple times throughout the story, and every time it happens, Max does everything in her power to save her. If you got to the end of that journey and your final decision was to just give up on saving your best friend, you're a lizard person.

>>
>>719538506
i mean, it is objectively the correct choice. unless you're a lizard person, who's never been as close to someone as Max and Chloe are to one another, or unless you never moved away from your hometown. why would you kneel to space-time's whim to save a bunch of strangers (who may or may not even die), when you could make it bend to your will and absolutely for sure save someone you care a lot about?

and if you're a lizard person, that's okay, i just don't wanna be your friend or see you recieve any sort of temporal superpower. lol

Even when I was young I was annoyed there was no explanation for why Max has time powers, why the universe wants Chloe dead, how Nathan got his dad to spend all that money for a bunker and why he built it, etc.

Cut content shows Nathan actually knew the storm was coming in the original drafts of the story, meaning, assuming DontNod had the budget some of those mysteries would have potentially been revealed. Instead there's just the rushed mystery ending that is Ep5.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iBW75OrP5S0

As is, the plot is just random nonsense. I seem to recall most YA stories have at least some explanation for core plots and mysteries.

They quite literally just aped Twin Peaks, the developers themselves even admitted it was one of the game's influences. That's why everything is vague, unexplained and lends itself to delusional headcanons.
>>
>>719539584
There's no central mystery to alien that needs answering, that's why the prequels are so pointless and redundant. It's not important who the space jockeys were, they aren't central to the plot of Alien, they're basically scenery.

The bizarreness of LiS's events need something to explain them, otherwise it's just mystery box nonsense. Why does the universe want Chloe dead? If it wants Chloe dead so bad why doesn't it want Kate Marsh dead in the event you save her too? Why doesn't the universe chimp out and destroy the town when you save William as well?

The time bullshit/universe going crazy is a central mechanic and mystery to the entire game, and is never addressed.
