Double Exposure should've been about Jefferson coming back. It's been like 10 years so he should've been out of prison by now (sentences are 10-20 years).

Do you think Rachel faked orgasms to make Chloe feel better during sex
>>502933964Remove DE and expand the description from Lost Records

Max is for warm cuddles by the fireplace on a cold winters night and NOT for sexuals!
>>502937345possibly later, but she came the one time they tried fingering each other.
DE was going okay until she walked into the storm and the shitty nightmare sequence started
>>502941762>___ was going okay until she ___ and the shitty nightmare sequence startedThis applies to almost every game in the series and yet they still haven't learned
>>502942126it would probably help if you posted it somewhere the devs would actually read like a reddit board or a discord instead of whining about it on /lisg/

>>502934595I don't think he would ever be getting out. There's at least two bodies (Rachel and Nathan) tied to him, multiple other girls who could come forward as victims, where dipshit cataloged all the evidence himself, and considering he was probably doing stuff before coming to Blackwell he could also be looking at across state lines (federal) charges.
>>502945483yeah I mean there's folders with victims' names on them that confirmd him drugging (and raping) multiple Girls
>>502936059>No dykeshit allowed
>>502936059imagine lying like this. Max is built for Chloe's strapon and she knows it. Thats why she seethes that Chloe dumped her, she knows nothing else will measure up.
Well,this is a shitty iteration of /lisg/ so far.
>>502945740They insist it was nothing sexually done. Both because it would have been going "too far" with the story but from a logical standpoint, that also would have left evidence. Jefferson had a really weird fixation and that's what makes him scary. Especially how well he hid it, providing he could put the mask back on and he might have been able to get early release during the pandemic or something.
>>502949479Yeah, definitely lacks that 2016 retarded fanart

It's my favorite season and doesn't even feel like it.
>>502933964DE now being included? Nice.
>>502950807chloe is dead dude
I don't know how Square looks at LISG and thinks "Marvel". Was this the US side or the Japanese side that wanted these changes?
Imma just dump a shit load and get through this quick.
>>502954365God, I love her so much

Lost Records posting time, so we can get a good game in February. Roughly 3 months for the first tape
>>502973104Almost got it aside from the names
people unironically play this gay trash even on 4chan? Lmao. you can report me, couldn't care less
Do you think Square is worried about Lost Records stealing fans from LiS now that DE turned out to be such half assed crap? Because the latest interviews from both Stauder and Kuan make it seems like they want to announce DE2 already by next year and sweep under the rug the first one
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2EOqrVVolQ
>>502973563Absolutely.
How's DE ? I only played the first one and before the storm, enjoyed the songs and the teenage stuff.
>>502974060Second best LiS game after 1
>>502973563According from "behind the scenes speculations", they already bracing themselves for LR
>>502974060Avoid. It ruins the beauty of both BtS and LiS1 with a story that's absolutely not needed. The first two chapters are enjoyable enough but the plot and characters go nowhere in the latter half, with the cherry on top being the MCU post credit scene ending
>>502974060LiS > BtS > Captain Spirit > True Colors > DE > LiS2
>>502974284Now that's a very good joke, I'll give you that
>>502974284Pic not related
>>502974508LiS2 has way more replaybility value and endings that DE, soLiS > Captain Spirit > BtS > TC > LiS2 >>>>>DE
>>502974352>>502974508BTS was the game franchise could easily do without>>502974509Not joking at all
>>502974297Who claimed that?
>>502974897LiS2 is not what I want from a LiS game>No slice of life>male protags>>502974993>BTS was the game franchise could easily do withoutStill the 2nd best LiS game
>>502974993>dislike BtS and consider it avoidable>likes DE, a sequel thet goes out of it way to ignore the original dev intent of leaving alone and finished the story of LiS1The mind of the slop enjoyer does more turns around than a pretzel
>>502975083That's what they've been feeding that reddit tranny
>>502973454The first game tells a genuinely interesting story that even an unloveable incel chud can like.
>>502975525>love>incel>chudkek, weak bitch
>>502973104Going to romance Nora
>>502950992>At least there was effort in making Steph a character>Asked Alex if she's into girls the day after her brother diedReally an effort
>>502974032>rush DE2 even faster than DE1 because of Lost RecordsIt worked so well last time, isn't it?
>>502976036The difference of that scene is that it is set thee days after Gabe's funeral, and the whole scene is Alex's trying to find a solution to Steph's sadness and learning about her relationship with Alex's brother. It's a valid criticism to say that True Colors kinda forces your hand with choosing between Steph or Ryan, but compared to DE its played out a lot better than pushing Amanda straight in your face from the first instance you meet her with little player control.
What kinks do the various characters have.Steph being enamored with Alex' thighs is canon for me
>>502950992I still think they should have incorporated some of the Wavelength stuff into the main game to give Steph some good character development
>Zoe ProustThey just can't stop
>>502973563I want to know why they keep insisting DE2 will be easier to get out and have more freedom with story. Unless the staffing at D9 has leveled out into a team which wants to work on the same vision, and SE gives them more money. It's going to be just as messy and the MCU is not a direction many fans want to go. >>502977205>enamored with Alex' thighsA reasonable feeling.
>>502977205>>502979225Steph definitely has Alex sit on her face during sex
>>502979027Between this and shit like Safi having a 3/10 birthday, I'm starting to get a bit annoyed. Unless they are going to confirm the timeline has been fucked with and these are all signs someone's messing with Max. This isn't clever or cute.
>>502979483I get it, if they're doing something about it in the sequel, but they went a bit overboard.
>>502979408Good for her.>>502979643If they do something to unravel things, have Max sort them out and realize she was being taunted, then that might be interesting? If they have a good resolution to it. Right now with everything else about the game it just feels like another light slap towards fans of the original.

>>502933964>de finally in opNature is healing.
>>502933964Remove DE in the next one
>>502982495And add LiS2?
>>502982258Kate working at the dinner?Also I could see someone asking "What are they putting in the water in this town? Everyone is gay."
>>502982495>>502982684Both should be there. Pricefieldfags need to handle the fact that LiS isn't all about yuri.
>>502984209Life is strange, the game, is all about yuri
>>502984209I can accept 2 being put there as long as DE is nowhere to be seen. But most likely we will replace it with Lost Records anyway
>>502981976Has anyone noticed the Texasgoldrush account popping off to defend DE in every comment section, whenever is Youtube, Steam forums or this site? Who the fuck is this guy?
>>502988235Come on, D9, don't pass up the extremely obvious gold that would be Max's friends meeting Chloe.
Lost Records would have annihilated DE, shame they delayed the game
Steph being absolutely crazy for Alex is adorable. She found wife material and staked that claim like it was a gold rush.
>>502988209A dedicated fan
>>502990046saw her through the window and went>pleaselikegirls, pleaselikegirls, pleaselikegirls
>>502990114Hopefully so, because if it turns out him to be a D9 dev it would be extremely pathetic and ridicolous
>>502988209Yup, either a paid shill or a genuine turbo autism experience.
Life is Strange is at its most kino when its school focused>LiS1 - be student, take classes, walk around campus>BtS - be student, get sudpended/expelled, particepate in school play>LiS2 - no school>TC - no school>DE - be teacher, but do no teacher related thingswhy not have Max correct some assignments, teach a class or something. Seems like a waste
>>502993250Same reason everyone is written like a teenager.Their "jobs" are just fluff.Comfy gay Christmas soon.
>>502993250>why not have Max correct some assignments, teach a class or something.In Hydra
>>502949479It's incredible to me that after surviving for close to 10 years a Max sequel is what finally killed /lisg/. The general has been unrecognizable for the last few months, particularly the cropped SFM porn which used to be a huge taboo here
>>502997854I'd say it will probably improve when certain types get bored. It's already improved from the release of DE.
>>502998570
>>502998726yuck dog flavored kisses
>>502999465pricefield is racist
>>502999465you know what they say about white girls and dogs
>>503000447D9 played a pro gamer move with giving Max two POC love interests because now they can claim racism to whoever doesn't like them.
>>503000697Very smart move indeed
>>503000541white girls fuck dogs, they don't eat them
>>503001213This cracks me up. Pricefielders are so racist!
Where are all the news, articles, anything media about DE? From bigger outlets like PCGamer, Kotaku or similar? All I've seen is from their won X account, but nothing else. Has the discussion died down already?
>>503004070Every recent article outside fo the initial reviews has not painted the game in a good light, and how Square are using DMCA's to silence negative discussion.
Ive tried to play DE to give it an honest shot. I got to the infamous "who's the blue hair girl" Safi question and I'm equal parts pissed and sad.Does it get easier? I like the game so far. 29 year Max is relentlessly cute.
>>503004909The first two chapters are good, the rest of the game sucks.
>>5030050743rd is also good and I can't hate 4th because it has this KINO
>>503005520"So I made a choice, and hundred of people died, but I saved girl that I love. And I'd do it again."
>>502948265Amanda looks cute here
Tell me the God's honest truth. What are the odds they walk back the Chloe hate in the next game and involve her somehow?
>>503007317I think they're low. They seem to be doubling down
>>503007317Medium. They surely know they've fucked up. But there's always been the split timeline problem. They had the golden opportunity with DE to deal with it by having Bae/Bay being the Dead and Alive universes, then mash them together at the end. But they fucked it.
>>503007607From what is known now they still stick to their original plan, just like with DE
>>503005520The first chapters are decent if you play for the first time, but once you get to the ending they pretty much become worthless (and the more you pay attention, the worse it gets)
>>503004909It get worse as it goes on. Frankly, you'll be better if you had spent your money on Fear the Spotlight
>>503005520Nice detail, by the way
>>503000697>Amanda is a bland, perfect love interest first that get splatted over your face at the start but only exist to be a romance option rather than being interesting>Vinh has sexual abuser energy and pretty much is a character that Max would be repulsed by>Max has the option to either kiss Amanda in the other timeline when she reject her in the original one, and basically has almost zero negative repercussions>Max has the option of kiss both of them and basically glee about how hot it was like if she was a 14 year old girlI think it's quite easy to criticize both romances without being a racist prick. Also, Vinh is Quagmire but he has way more relevance in the story than Amanda
>>503007607I believe the next game will be a rushed mess in the style of Rise of Skywalker. If they are hiring temporary animators, I really dont expect the quality to be that good
>>503009646Vinh would almost be a decent if he wasn't a romance choice.
DontNod posted a video to wish Warren a Happy birthday. It shows Max refusing the hug by his car, walking past him in Blackwell without talking to him and hugging him in the diner.
>>503010409Tell Michel Warren said hi
>>503007317None whatsoever, as they are all about powers, team ups and Safi. They don't listen to fans at all.
>>503007317Doubtful. At most I would hope for a cutscene showing her with only music, or a brief phonecall. Which is really what I expected from DE.
>>503007317Chloe (if alive) will return and kill Saffi to save Max.
>>503013778>SaffiHow many brain cells do you lack to remember simple 4 letter name?
Perhaps under a specific set of choices it could trigger a Chloe ending. I think D9 realizes they're not going to get away with teasing inclusion this time, people are aware of the game being played. Not giving some kind of desired outcome is just going to make a second game do even worse. The writers may dislike Chloe but fans are not going to let her go.
>>503014493They'll spitefully demand you have a complete save filed form every previous LiS, and have made one single set of exact choices.
>>503014868I would applaud them if they had a way to read linked save files that took choices into account without directly asking you. Working it into a conversation in DE was a good idea, it was just used for the worst thing.
>>502935615Seems like a lot of people started calling her Maxine after DE
>>503022719cute and canon
>>502933964My beautiful wife
>DE in the OPIs it that over for Pricefield?
>>502975374BTS is fan fiction, a complete mess of a game that simply does not work with the canon.
>>503026198BTS completely takes place in the fading mind of Chloe as she lies bleeding out in the restroom after getting shot
>>503022719these need to be banned from here
Double Exposure had concurrent player peak of 600 today. Is that a lot or is that low? I don't have a reference point so I don't know
>>503030018The OG game from 9 years ago had a peak of 429 so DE is pretty mid.
>>503030018Ok for the fourth week
>>503027598So it didn't happen at all because Max saves her? Neat.
>>502933964Double Exposure is the best LiS game right now. Literally have more players than Tranny Colors.
How do you think D9 is feeling internally that the only people giving unanimous, unconditional praise for their game are only using it as an excuse to publicly shriek about how much they hate gays, women, and trans people? Can't imagine it feels great.
>>503032361True
>>503032361based based based
>>503034804>>503033752It's funny that Max is happier, gets to have her own harem, and wins life when Chloe is not there.Meanwhile, whenever Max is around Chloe, she keeps getting in trouble, almost got herself killed several times, and gets miserable and depressed every day.What did D9 mean by this?
>>503035915Good questions!
>>503035915>>503037483This. You'll never see Max as happy as around those two.Yet pricefield is Max hating ship. They hate DE cause they absolutely hate to see her at this levels of happines. They'd rather see her depressed, miserable or even dead than without that blue haired bitch
Max locking herself down to essentially her first love at age 18 is kind of weird and I'm glad they can actually explore more romance options
>>503039028They don't want to hear it. They want a static character, no changes, no growth, no direction. Just vicarious, parasocial wish-fulfillment.
>>503035915>>503037483>>503038308>>503039028By the way the journal implies Max had two people in one day before in BOTH endings
>>503038308>>503039028>>503039183>>503039274how about you shut the fuck up
>>503039274based Max using her power to have sex with two people
>>503040071This time, but not the previous one(s)
If Max gets nutted in but time travels backwards, does the nut stay in her and get her impregnated?
>>503038308The final LiSpill is that BAY is the correct canon for Pricefield and BAE was low IQ shipping faggotry doomed to the failure we saw in DE.

>>503048283DE is already dying bro
>>503039183>Max has grown up>uses her power in a way that makes her inconsistent with the lessons she learned in the first game>writes her diary like a 14 year old horny teenDE defenders dont give a shit about chraracter growth, they only care about acting smug and defending their corporate slop
>>503010085I can agree with that, he works as a character, not as a love interest.
>>503039274So cringe. DE people really are adult children. Max is too old for this shit
>>503046328>hello bra-ACKKK!!!!Double Exposure is a success and won. EZ.
>>503050490>Less tnan LiS>Less that BtS>Less that LiS2lol. lmao even

>>503050906>only 500 more than TC despite bringing back beloved protagonist from first game>Game featuring solo Chloe does 8k better than solo Max gameeven more lmao
>>503050490 Doing barely better playerwise than TC but falling down the Steam charts, not appearing in october PS top selling list while Veilguard did it, being the lowest rated LiS game even more than 2... yeah truly a staggering success
>>503051003>Double Exposure is the most played LiS on steam right now>Has more players than Tranny ColorsLMAOOOOOOO
>>503051293>Double Exposure is the most played LiS on steam right nowFallen out of the charts in less than six days and didn't even got a significant weekend influx of new players like TC did, despite bringing back Max. It had more players due to being recent for sure, but it won't exactly face good in the long run as more people see the story for that shit pile that it is
>>503051769Look at that tranny still stuttering like a gigantic faggot and doesn't want to mention or address the fact that Tranny Colors still flopped, and he tried to spin TC having fewer players than DE somehow meant Turd Colors is more successful than DE. KEEEEEKED
still seething malmakesgames said game was about moving on from chloe and this was supposed to be a fun game lmao
The CaDablog speculator think that Rihanna delisting the upcoming section on her site is a way to hide her involvment with the next game
>>503052089DE doing only slighty better than TC isn't the own you think it is
>>503052089>DE not flopping as hard as TC means its successfulLike arguing that Batman & Robin is successful because it did better than The Room
>>503052374>>503052406IT STARTS WITHONE THINGTRANNY COLORS FLOPPED HARDIT DOESN'T EVEN MATTERHOW HARD THEIR TROONS TRIEDKEEP THAT IN MINDTHEIR SHILLS GOT DESTROYED AND BTFO IN RECORD TIME
square needs to make that announcement asap. the fandom has zero faith. they don't have a lot of time before they have to announce this
Clearly this anon has to compare it with TC because all the other evidence shows the game perfoming worse on the long run than TC. And not to mention not even reaching BtS level of peak by bringing back Max lmaoThey dont give a shit about the game quality, they are only here to troll, and in a very pathetic way might add
>>503052185Or plans changed. That person will be so disappointed. I do no think her plans was related to life is strange at all
the timing is something though. it is possible square saw everyone thinking it was DE2 and asked her to remove it but then if it wasn't DE2 would they have that right?
Anon just seethes because DE has been so bad that it's made a lot of people revise their views on TC.
So when is TC is going to have more players than DE? Two more weeks? KEEEK
>>503053460when is Max solo game going to have higher all-time peak than solo Chloe game? Never probably, lel
>>503053528Double Exposure won and is the most played LiS game on Steam.Tranny Colors flopped and lost.
>>503050490>400K for LiS2What.
>>503053831Bots spam when the first episode became free to play
>>503053737Resorting to the same argument does imply that you have not much to reply
Is DE really doing better than TC?
>>503053875Odd how that's how the numbers got bumped up.
>>503054090What is there to say? Double Exposure is the most played LiS game on Steam. Tranny Colors lost and has fewer players than Double Exposure. That's the reality. I'll say it, and I'll keep repeating them again. Your inability to cope with reality is none of my concern, tranny. Facts and logic don't care about your feelings.
>>503054428What is that anon?
>>503054512>people liked a game I didn't like
>>503054642>(((people)))Nobody plays Tranny Colors. Everyone is currently playing Double Exposure right now.

>>503054428>DE peak higher than TC at relase only to chug down harder in the long run>backlash and low scores with a very mixed reception>lower than even LiS2>not even a first weekend bumpSurely that early access helped lmao
So now that the dust has settled. What exactly went wrong and how can Dicknine come back from this?
>>503058703reboot the franchise, walk back on their current plans or just keep on trucking and watching sales drop game by game until SE either drops D9 or the franchise entirely
you think Chloe taught Max about sex?
>31 players OHNONONONOBAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I find extremely pathetic that DE dickriders have to play out the TC playercount card to just make their game better, but I guess trying to defend the game on its own doesn't really work when the story is such a mess
>>503058703Good question. I wonder how much it cost to make the game. Much more than TC I would assume. So, I do actually think this game might actually in the long run end up earning less money. But anway. I hope the listen to some of the feedback. The story they want to tell, is not the story fans want to play. And they need to bring Chloe back. No way around it. They would have to be dumb not to. But I think they will push ahead with their own idea, and the series will die a slow death.
