Rachel Amber edition.>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 Page https://store.steampowered.com/curator/36149206>Lost Records: Bloom & Rage(LR: B&R) – A spiritual successor to the original Life is Strange, made by Don’t Nod (DN). Set in Velvet Cove during the summer of 1995, it follows Swann Holloway and her chaotic, brilliant queer friends, Nora, Autumn, and Kat, as they form a band, fall recklessly in love, and try to carve out a space for themselves in a world that keeps trying to erase them. But something terrible cuts their youth short, and 27 years later, they return to face what was buried. It’s a hazy, haunted, heartbreakingly queer story about girlhood, memory, music, and the kind of love that doesn’t fade, even when everything else does.Steam Page : https://store.steampowered.com/app/1902960Discussion of the Lis Extended Universe, recently announced TV adaption, and other similar games is welcome!Reminder: Do not respond to tourists from /v/
My first time doing this (probably my last time too) would've included all of the games but the character limit was very small so sorry.

Once again, all LiS games are listed in the OP - we keep bumping. OP stays the same - and the thread will die just like the last few ones>>541377520>>541377825>>541378843
Is SE going to announce anything this month or are they fully washing their hands?
>>541390176If it’s dropping in Feb, they kinda have to
>>541390673It's going to release same day as the announcement.
>>541377520my man!
Max & Chloe try to recreate Chloe & Rachel's photos
>>541377825drop all the useless crap. just keep basic info on each game + links. we’ll throw in the sequel and tv show after the announcement
Tranny generalTranny gameTranny everythingSimple as
Huh. We've gone back to falling off page 10 without reaching the limit. Back to the good ol' days.
Let's not kid ourselves here. Amazon is probably not going to bother setting the show in 2013 which will kill the tone. We'll see people using tiktok and watching skibidi toilet and Chloe is probably going to be black. DOA>>541404395Go back to your containment board fag
>>541403869if any of yall can do that within 1600 characters send it here and i'll do in in the next post.Because i tried like 10 different versions of this post but all of them were too long so i just decided to copy the last post.Really wanted to include all of the games but i could'nt shorten it enough to fit it here.
>>541408434back in autumn and winter every thread had a new baker and we had all kinds of formats
>>541408434Who cares about all the games, the unified link is more than enough. Keep OP that way and novody will bother

I only played the very first LiS. I liked it a lot until the last chapter when it all fell apart, and it turned out none of the choices I made mattered in the end. Is it worth for me to get back into the series and try the other games?
>>541422263The second one and before the storm are fine but tc and de are complete abominations.
>>541422453>tc and de are complete abominationsi thought tc was fine as a homage to the first game. barely any new ideas but honestly i didn't mind. i think it's better than bts in some aspects
>>541422263My cope is that there are many smaller scenes you miss out on depending on your choices, like Kate in the hospital or Victoria in the dark room, and as a result you connect less with certain characters, which could influence your final decision. So in a way your choices do matter to (You) as a player. But yeah you just gotta accept that the consequences in the finale are a scam. LiS 1 is the best in the series and it’s downhill after that, but LiS 2 has about 7 ending variations iirc, so it’s the best in terms of choices actually mattering.
https://x.com/AdnanRiaz9/status/1974376860604911970Looks like they are porting all the other games to PS5 after they relased the collection, and leaving out original LiS1 and BtS
>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.
>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
>>541426514Blackpilled take but LiS is doomed unless dontnod somehow gets involved, which is not happening. Also I think DE might have been consciously sabotaged by somebody inside D9. There's no way there were people in D9 that were retarded enough to think that their end product was ok to ship
>>541427157If the TV show ends up being good, that will be in spite of SEs involvment and more on Dmitri actually standing his ground/compromising for a decent adaptation
>>541427157
>there's no way there were people in D9 that were retarded enough to think that their end product was ok to shipThe dev team was full of themselves into a toxic positivy bubble and exaggerated by D9 internal messy management bending over to Square London's retarded requests, and all they got was a flop. You can clearly tell they really did not expect DE to bomb as badly as it did because they don't seem to have a coherent plan moving foward in how they are handling the post relase, they next attempt will be a LIS1 remake because they have not many choices left to pursue if D9 goes down
>>541422263Kind of depends on what you liked about the first game. If you want your choices to matter this time round, LiS 2 is your best bet but it's hampered by some writing choices e.g. the characters are retarded, religion bad and the racism angle, which isn't all that bad but funny. It's great once you get going on the road. It has the worst pacing of all the games however. It has the best take on Dontnod's art style at the time, the environments are just stunning. The best story in the series retarded writing choices notwithstanding.BTS is a mixed bag. It has the best soundtrack and characterization of Chloe because you get to choose if you want to play her as a teenage bitch or a more mellow, laid-back Chloe, both of which are parts of her personality as a whole but all of it stemming from the loss of her dad, which she still hasn't gotten over. It veers wildly into AU territory because of its many inconsistencies with the first game but that shouldn't deter you. TC suffers the same fate as LiS 1 where your choices don't matter for the ending you get but everything else in-between does. Third in terms of soundtrack. Story is so-so; small town has a secret that kind of story, it moves along. It has the coziest setting though smaller in scope. The most likable roster in the entire games. Alex''s powers aren't fully realized and it may leave you disappointed since she's had it for years yet it's bare bones. Wavelengths is worth playing once I'd say. DE, you either like or you don't. It had potential but flounders really early. It has unaddressed plot threads that are either forgotten or obviously set-ups for a future game/story which is frustrating because some of them really have potential; same goes for the characters and Max's powers in this one. I'd say play it for Max if you really like her or if you want to play The Room's LiS equivalent. Very cozy setting though again, wasted potential. Don't let the schizos here stop you from playing it.
>>541427929NTA, but based
>>541427929>I'd say play it for Max if you really like herif you like Max save you wallet, game is literally a hatefiction written by out of touch executives bully low pay workers in Colorado, Max acts like a caricature of herself at times, her power is barebones and the story fall aparts badly>Don't let the schizos here stop you from playing itcrack it with Fitgirl repack or watch a playthrough if you really are curious
>>541422263There are two developers in this franchise, Dontnod and Deck 9. DN are the original french creators, they made LiS1 special as it is today but also were working on a limited budget and schedule. By LiS2, they had a significant budget increase and that lead them to actually make a sequel game who improved on the choice and consequences dynamic, with four endings and other smaller variations, but it suffers a lot for being overly ambitious trying at all cost to not be like Life is Strange.D9 are an american developer, and they are a mixed bag. Before the Storm is an attempt at a prequel which has some great moment with Chloe as the main protagonist, Rachel and the soundtrack but falls apart by the final episode and suffers from a lot of narrative inconsistencies to the first game, and none of your choices really have final consequences. The only content that's solid within that game is the Farewell bonus episode desuTC is fine, they have an original cast and arguably a cozy setting but deep down is a safe to mid rehash of the first game. Alex Chen is cool, but her power is lame and none of the choice or consequences have an impact as deep as LiS2. You might find some enjoyment tho but I would reconmend it on discount price than full.DE is plain awful because it carries over all the same issues that D9 had in both BtS and TC, except this time is a story that's an unecessary sequel/rehash/reboot with Max as the MC again. I can't really reconmend it as the few positives it has like some of the ost or mocap is tampered by a large amount of idiotic decisions by SE and D9
>>541426191oh that's why they give away the ps4 games in that DE repack scam
>>541377825Next time write in the description only "Max is love, Max is life" and refuse to elaborate

So any predictions for October?
>>541450728My predickton isImma maek some hellaween ren(daz)>>541444813AI SHIT IS BETTER THAN MY SHIT
>>541450728They are going to announce it (they have to if they want the game to be released in q1 2026) and either the trailer isn't gonna be good enough so people will start to hate on them for that or it is going to be extremely misleading
>>541453338Who's saying DE2 has to be relased in early 2026? For all I know they can shove it out October 2026 and call it a day
God bless moosh
>>541456374>For all I know
>>541456374Will D9 still be around in october 2026 though?
>>541450728Halloween
>>541457360That's the neat part, they likely won't, or at least not in a substantial manner
>>541457360Maybe some of the ones that got laid off will band together and make their own studio.
>>541474645We need more shipping of tertiary characters.
>>541380398>>541377520>>541377825Reminder that LR is not a franchise game and is therefore off topic discussion. DE and LiS2 are franchise games despite baker trying to erase their existence because of seethe.
>>541480881No.
>>541482268Get that rat faced Rachel out of here
>>541483043no
>>541480881LIS2 has been excludeed by /lisg/ for years and nobody complained, we can do the same for DEAnd content LR remains
>>541483718LR is off topic discussion. It is Life is Strange general, and LR is not part of the franchise. /v/ or making your own general is the more appropriate form of discussion.
>>541486034Who cares?! Nobody even brings up this crap anymore, not even to spite DE. Just seething
I'm an incel chud and my dirty little secret is that I love reading Pricefield fics and while I do I giggle and kick my feet in the air like a school girl
>>541527039not surprising. all pricefielders are people with maladaptive social identities

Hey im not really active here can anyone help me catch up with the latest de2 shit i mean after cada's post went crazy and into news articles , was there anything after that orrrr
>>541541921Cada knows nothing. Just lurk here, the only 2-3 anons who actually dig up anything in this fandom show up once in a while and drop new stuff
>>541541921the real estimated release date is spring 2026, that's all you need to know anon!and I will drop this too, the "time shackle" leak has 2 bullet points true so far out of 4
>>541544236They should release it on Chloe birthday and further sink Pricefield for more seethe
>>541545481Obsessed anon, not an healthy behaviour. But at least DE2 will sink D9 more than it did to Pricefield, you don't push out a sequel to a flop without making significant changes to improve it
>>541545481that's going to be Safi's birthday
>>541544236>the "time shackle" leak has 2 bullet points true so far out of 4First time I ever heard of this, just know pic related and geoloc anon saying it was mostly true except for the DLC and Safi love interest part.
>>541546842>picBased
wtf is time shackle leak? is anon trying to bait again?
>>541546842they said they can’t confirm those two points. other than that, there’s nothing major here. some characters are still in, caledon’s still around at least as a location - what a surprise! and so on
>>541546842its not this one, its the listwt one that has been going around silently for a few days when DE released
>>541548420Where they schizoing too?
>>541546842Wait, how many romance options Max has in this one?
>>541548615no, it was just a 4 bulletpoint with format:>title>release date>behind the scenes info>main featurebut if you go poking around the right linkedins, you can find the powers from the next game (both art wise and ue5 technicality speaking)I wont drop more nuggets bc I want cada's schizo discord server to actually do their own research & I greet the pricefield discord server as well!
>>541548831Anon, just say the twitter crap, if it is something Keno and co were talking too
>>541549145not related
>>541548831>it was just a 4 bulletpoint with formatIt wasn’t. The 4 bullet points were different.
>>541549516you post it then if you want, but looking at it now, half of it is true surprisingly & if you drop the title, I am pretty sure another aperture will happen when SE magically orders D9 to change the title
>>541548831Dude, if you know something, just spill.
>>541548831
>>541549652Let me guess - the two confirmed points are the release date and the main feature, right?
>>541549652anon show the listwt link I want to see how bad it is
>>541549975have patience, I mentioned the intern having the release date 5-10 threads ago & eventually posted the photo, I will give it time unless the other listwt users leak it before me
>>541549975kek, good one anon
>>541548831atleast tell us where to look if you ain't gonna post it
>>541549516Which were? let's stop with the vague shit and just lets get to the nitty gritty
>>541550386Fixed
>>541541921Apparently i started this whole "leak" argument with this simple little question
>>541549652Nobody cares about the title just post the damn leak
>>541551069Well, we've got one clown here pretending he knows stuff, and a whole bunch of other clowns yelling "you have no proof".Nothing unusual
If you know something say it or atleast give some kind of proof that what you're saying is true otherwise there's no point. You ain't nonchalant and cool if you say that you know something and then dont say anything about it
>>541551216The title wasn’t in those 4 bullet points. That anon, let’s just say, got it wrong.
>>541551712Then what was in those "4 bullet points" ?
>>541551387>"clown" is when someone ask for proofs, dont receive any and then tell the other person they are making things up because they vaguepostAll of this is on them, if they know shit then they have to prove it
>>541552076They don't owe you shit. Go dig it up yourself, you useless clown. They literally told you where to track the info
>>541552520just went over listwt confession and there was nothing about, just fake nonsensical crap like that petals fake leak with Lyla's return
>>541553374Why are you bringing up listwt? Do you have reading comprehension? Anon's been lurking dev LinkedIns and socials, tracking status changes and all that
Alex Chen status?
>>541554520they literally mentioned it was on twitter when DE was out >its not this one, its the listwt one that has been going around silently for a few days when DE released
>>541554794single
>>541554801And he doesn’t even remember the 4 bullet points right, he misnamed them.
>>541553374>Lyla's returnKekAnother romance option for Max. The sixth one now, I think
>>541555990what was that supposed four bullet points that were thrown on twitter that anon is vagueposting about and that supposedly linkedin artists proved is real?
>>541554794Thighs still thick
>>541556161that was a fake leak anon
>>541554794dumptruck
>>541548831So did anyone find anything in linkedin
>>541548831Dawg you cant "just say poke around the right linkedins and you'll find something " atleast give is like a little nugged so we know what to search for or something
So is a Double Exposure sequel happening or not?Not certain yet?
>>541582790It hasn't been announced yet, but some LinkedIn accounts mentioned an unannounced project at Deck Nine, which indicates one is likely soon.
>>541582790Its a contractual obligation but also D9 last game in the franchise. DE massive flop and no new contracts pretty much "killed" the studio, so they are now in zombie mode finishing it and relasing in 2026 as they lay off one dev at a time. Think about old Telltale bankruptcy, but with more drama and incompetence involved
>>541589467I assume this means that it will be a very low quality product that will be done and shipped just for the sake of getting it over with?cant be worse than double exposure itself though, now taht i think about it
>>541589773>this means that it will be a very low quality product that will be done and shipped just for the sake of getting it over with?Yes>cant be worse than double exposure itselfNever say never anon
the strange life of page 10
>>541589773>it will be a very low quality product that will be done and shipped just for the sake of getting it over withYou should've kept the seethe in check. Maybe the devs would have gotten a halfway decent budget
>>541620327Anon, they wasted 30 millions on DE alone, very doubtful on the quality of a sequel rushed in less than a year after its predecessor. It's not "seething" being skeptical of what they are going to pull out
>>541620327>threw a fit once - got the franchise taken from a decent dev and handed to a greedy clueless corpo >threw a fit again - got the sequel (with their ship’s comeback planned) gutted: no budget, no devs, no marketing, nothing they never learn
>>541627595Keep slurping the corpo cock, you don't care about LiS at all
>>541627791Keep crying
>>541627791can you read, dumbass? i literally trashed the corpo in the post
>>541628557They're terminally incapable of not being a joke
>>541629190brutal
>>541628557Anon, you cant read history and you know it; DN sold the rights to have LIS1 published by Square, and if we trust LDH it was never their original intent to bring Chloe backOne of you even admitted it, you care more about "seething pricefielders" than the franchise turning into shit. Deny all you want, but you aint clever enough to hide it so fuck off
when do we take a page of the Pricefielders book and reject AI slop
>>541631492wasn't saying about the rights. try reading properly, moron>if we trust LDHif we trust LDH, SE saw BTS as a success and LiS2 as a failure. now ask yourself why — they sold the same.now fuck off and don't ever bother me again with your stupidity
>>541633246wouldnt it be funny if quantic dream will make the next lis game after DE2
>>541633246>if we trust LDH, SE saw BTS as a success and LiS2 as a failureShe never said that, you are making shit up again like the worm you are
>>541634770Quantic Dream would require money and time to do it, and SE dont want a studio with prestige, they want cheap hacks they can dictate every condition at
>>541635261QD is cheap nowadays, havent you seen the slop they keep releasing as of late?
>>541635332Their latest game was Detroit: Become Human, and it was in 2018. They have a Star Wars game in development hell and who knows when its going to come out, all the other games you mentioned are mid indie titles just published by their labelThry would still ask a lot of money from Square if they had to make a Lis game, hence why is not happening
>>541634770You'll get Microids.
glad to see nothing changed at all up to release
>>541638961Why are you reposting Baqir's year-old shit again?
>>541629190My god. Pricefield is the kind of clown show that doesn't even need a writer
>>541639701O B S E S S E DBSESSEDSeek help anon, it is not healthy for you to be that way.
>>541620327>>541627595I’ve been telling them this here since 2019>>541631492>it was never their original intent to bring Chloe backWell, if she’s in, it’s without budget, resources, or dev manpower to do it right - thanks to people like you. Enjoy the half-assed mess you helped make, faggot
>>541650042I've never asked for DE, and certaintly I did not begged Square Enix to split it into two games not knowing if it was going to be a success or not. Now stop acting like a twelve year old
>>541638961soul
>>541657196Yup
>>541657812Soulless and flopped
>>541650042I know all of your posts are trolls, but the idea that people should buy slop in the hopes that the next slop will be better is actually funny.
>>541670559You don’t need the game to be better, let's be honest. You just want MUH CHLOE shoved in by any means necessary. Then you’ll buy it instantly, praise it, pretend it’s deep and so on.Everyone’s used to your hypocrisy by now
>>541670559Engaging with them is a waste of time, they have shown more than once they do not give a single fuck about the LiS franchise and change talking point every time. They are so bitter and spiteful they have no other option but to bitch and groan with the same phrases, which is very twelve year old behaviour desu

>>541553374>Lyla's returnSE's newest guide basically nukes LiS2 from the canon. Same with Captain Spirit
>>541685676It's literally nonsensical bullshit, it pretends that the comics are canon even when they directly contradict each other from game to book. To use this as like a linear guide is confusing more than helpful
>>541685676Forget-Me-Not cannot be canon. Rachel is alive and Kate is dead
>>541685676kek
>>541691169They also put it before the other post TC book, except that other book is also its own separate version of "what happens with Alex leaving town with Steph" scenario and contradicts the other one, and it also reading it has zero influence over DE.But the original comic run also make no sense to be set as a introduction to TC beause Max and Chloe actually met steph in a completely different way from the Steph prequel novel, they just smashed together a bunch of different stuff to make a "linear" canon expanded universe, but you can tell it's all retroactive decision making by SE
>>541691921It's vaguely chronological across multiple timelines. Thus making them all canon and all non canon at the same time. It's like Burton's Batman to Schumacher's.We're super heroes and variants now.
>>541691921They're including that short TC comic that was included as a part of the whole thing I reckon
>>541685676Based, actually.Half those comics should've been nuked too. Absolute trash and just add more confusion
>>541697521What they have done is just make a confusing timeline with little care if it is consistent or not>>541697473Yes, that was a special issue but it was very distinct from the main comic run, and honestly it screams of retroactive tampering to try and cobble together a somewhat coherent timeline that is not really coherent
>>541693248Seems to me they are kinda in a desperate situation if now they are trying to retroactively canonized everything
Even someone like Victoria Chase has to masturbate every once in a while. We're all human.

>>541702079If the show pops off, people will eat up any related content. They clearly cut the dead weight — that was the whole point

>>541747996the way stinky fujos do it if her anime figurine is any indication
>>541685676I no longer understand anything about SE plan for this franchise
>>541736838They should have cut DE then
>>541753851Why would they? Just because you didn't like it? They had long-term plans tied to this. If the show takes off, the're sticking to the roadmap
>>541754612DE was a huge flop, and DE2 is probably D9s death nail as a company as well as flopping too. Their "huge plans", which I doubt they are well planned, are only worth it if there's a financial incentive behind, not when they relase a flop after another in the hope of the show relase being decent

reminder that ubermachine lurks /lisg/ and 100% used ai anon posts to make chloe x amanda content
>>541771627Based. Even though his content never did much for me
>>541772538He should do Dylan content instead
>>541747996She humps a pillow while thinking about gay romance manga. She also likes to watch herself in the mirror when she cums and has even taken some orgasm selfies.
>>541771627Is there any backstory to that? Why’s Amanda licking her bullet necklace?
>>541774643Ubermachine saw pic related and thought AmandaXChloe was hot
>>541774643because she just likes licking stuff, obviously
Would have Autumn and Nora made a good couple if Swann or Kat weren't there?
>>541760339See you in the swamp
>>541782014internet time at the asylum, huh?
>>541781932No.None of the girls really pair well with Autumn.
>>541781932I doubt it. Autumn was pretty reticent about her bisexuality at the time or it hadn't surfaced yet. One could hope but I think their sisterly bond would get in the way.
>>541771627I doubt he gets ideas from here. But he's definitely lurking, he even dropped some files himself
Kinda crazy how that Dispatch game from Adhoc (studio filled with ex Telltale devs) looks like it’s going to do better than both Lost Records and DE despite being from a largely unknown studio. Really shows that there is still a market for choice based narrative games as long as you continue to innovate and not just churn out the same slop over and over again.
>>541803067>looks like it’s going to do better than both Lost Records and DE despite being from a largely unknown studio.the studio was made by former Telltale devs, not exactly an unknown teamAlso they still use old Telltale styled timed choices, and if they have to use the weekly relase for each episode they might as well just get the whole game out
>>541803067Having all those "big" name VAs attached to the project doesn't hurt.
>>541803067games not even out tho
>>541803067have you looked at the VAs for that game. actual well known talent instead of literally who's like most LiS games
>>541808509Big talents as of Aaron Paul or Moistcrtical means also big budget, but doesn't always correlate with big sales
>>541808743plus the partnership with Critical Role>Critical Role Productions announced a partnership with AdHoc Studio for Dispatch merchandise, tabletop gaming, and an animated series. The partnership also included AdHoc co-developing a new game set in the Critical Role universe.
>>541809008>Critical Role Productions announced a partnership with AdHoc Studio for Dispatch merchandise, tabletop gaming, and an animated seriesShouldn't the game be successful before doing all those partnership deals and a whole animated series?
>>541809223I think you'll find the Critical Role cast start hyping up the game to their whale audience. and with viewers of their new campaign reaching approx between 700k-1m they're probably banking on the Critical Role audience and that connection to carry it.
>>541809489That make sense if they were making a Critical Role game, but Dispatch is not that game and is capeshit related, which is kinda the lowest common denominator
>>541760718Can anyone pretty please explain to me what is going on with this ring theory and why it's supposedly insane? I am confused
>>541812620It was some anon retarded theory made ages ago, that's now propped back by the regular 12 yr old DEfender because he cant live without saying how much Pricefield live rent free in his skull
October 7thMax got her powers today
>>541805834It already has more followers on Steam than both DE and LR. It’s almost in the top 25 most wishlisted on Steam currently while DE didn’t even reach the top 50 iirc.
>>541803067>looks like it’s going to do better than both Lost Records and DENo doubt, capeshit cartoon game is a much easier sell to the bigger target audience than cringy high school girls fucking around game.
>>541820058Capeshit content is so overused and desu a LIS successor should not be this type of game
>>541819169The LiS inverted focus shot is such fucking kino. So simple and yet no one else in narrative games seems to get the concept of basic cinematography 10 years later. Like this shot comes up again and again and ties in perfectly with the themes of insecurity and uncertainty that you just have to sit with and realize you can be as much of a hero as anyone elseAlso Max runs circles around all the other clowns who submitted art in that contest.
>>541812620One of those Reddit-born copium theories that got dragged in by our local schizo. It was so laughably wrong that now it's used as a textbook example of how delusional certain parts of this fandom are
>>541836541The two girls kissing was pretty good
>>541856108lol no

>>541861889Its a stupid theory, but it would make a lot of sense if DE was a Dontnod Michel develop games tho
>>541861050Dude, it's obvious this meme's targeting something else entirely. You're trying so hard to shift the topic, it's almost as dumb as that theory>>541862841I doubt he'd sink to that level
LiS is a fag game
D9 is booting out mocap people, really seems like this is the end
>>541865065and you are that fag
>>541866507That's unnerving as it seemed like they were pivoting toward lending their mocap shit to other developers
>>541869003That ship crashed down, studios saw how radioactive D9 was with DE reception and the IGN shit so they had to fire Webb Pickersgill. And he was the reason D9s mocap direction was so good and built uponHim going away is their own Kevin Bruner leaving Telltale in 2017 moment

Anyone has a screenshot of that person claiming D9 made the new the wolf among us and it being cancelled? Cada stop being wrong. You are being delusional again. They are going bankrupt.
>>542095756My comfort baby Amanda
>>542126281It was a post made on /v/ a while ago and in likelyhood fake. It was true that Deck Nine was in talk to work with Telltale for TWAU2, but it never went into production and Telltale left them after the Expanse flopped
>>542121432Vi and Chloe would get along so well
>>542124263first three chapters are decent, you can play it
>>542121432Because soulmates gonna soul.
What are the odds LiS gets sold off when Deck None finally croaks?
>>542136767Chapter 3 is ass too, but you start to notice the cracks at how they handle Alderman after a replay, in fact most of the story falls apart once you replay it
>>542137015That depends on the show success, and SE willingness to remake LIS1 to chase on all the other big publishers pulling out remake games
>>5421370150%
>>542137591Why?
>>542137039The files make it look like Alderman thing was supposed to be way more interesting>>542137193It all hinges on the show now. Literally everything
>>542137039tell me you didnt read max's journal without telling me
>>542124117she triggered lisg with her theories & anons were obsessed, nowadays you have keno with schizo theories & anons being obsessed with her
>>542137856I read the original game's journal plenty of times, couldn't be assed to finish that Wikihow looking piece of crap, and nothing of value was lost btw
>>542138015thats Cada job btw
>>542137789The show needs to be more than good if DE2 is that piece of crap I expect it to be
>>542138452They both operate on the same IQ and delusion level. Might even be sharing one, lol
>>542138741Keno pretty much humbled Cada by just pushing back a little, this is not even a fair comparison
>>542137663They don't need to. It's just another IP they can keep in their vault.
>>542137856>max's journal
>>542137015SE will get someone else to remake the original. Maybe they declare DE non-canon as an olive branch to angry fans, but I think they still want to make the series about Max and ditch the anthology stuff.I'm not sure why they believe in LIS more than some of the IPs they sold off, but they really think they can make it work despite not understanding why people loved the original. The original was cheap and sold well, but can they make more off of it than Tomb Raider, for example?
They are asking for a new focus group survey, again, both London and LA locations. You know what to do.>https://x.com/LifeIsStrange/status/1976659548166308349>https://survey.alchemer.com/s3/8501594/October-2025
>>542139973They sold off the other IP to get rid of their studios. Nobody would have bought crystal dynamics without tomb raider.LiS isn't tied to a studio owned by SE.I don't think they'll declare DE non canon, but it'll stay as one path of a multiverse. That path will probably die with D9 and DE2.
>>542140318This one might decide the fate of DE2.
>>542140318basedfuck pricefield, WE GAAN
>>542141174Fuck off shitter>>542140901Do you think they are not sure to even relase the game so they have to pull out yet another focus group to choose for them?
>>542140901might be, but judging by the questions, it’s gonna be about something else>>542141859>Fuck off shitter>you have no proofclassic
>>542142663How much of those plans have changed give that D9 is very obiously going down? The first focus group was made before they even announced the layoffs of Stauder and co, surely at this point they'll have to find another studio post DE2 if they want to make a LiS1 remakeAlso post the whole text and don't be an arrogant asshole
>>542142663I hope those titles have writers that lean heavily into pricefield!
>>542143064didn’t have the full screenshot, that’s all I got. so fuck off>How much of those plans have changedif you go by the key questions and ignore D9, not much changed. D9’s questions gone, but they added some other interesting stuff>The first focus group was made before they even announced the layoffs of Stauder and cothey already knew about the layoffs in october, maybe even earlier. first focus group was based on that info already>>542143636the faggot below posted the full screenshot. pricefield’s not on their roadmap apparently
>>542138452oh right, I guess cada's like a mari too, jesus how did we get 2 maris or 3 if we count mazuu too...?
>>542138272it explains what happened in situations such as alderman drowning & being sucked through the drawing (thats what the script says too - dig the cinematic d9scenes pbl files)
>>542144594>so fuck offBe humble anon, if you know more, just post proof and dont be a bitch>D9’s questions goneThat were made for a different online survey, not focus group reservations but yeah they are gone. And likely plans changed, they can't make multiple future games if they don't find another studio after DE2. The new question it ask is how are you interested for more games and nothing else, with a ranking
>>542139930KekI remember someone was posting those quotes one by one, and some anon had a full-on meltdown. He kept screaming that they wrote that themselves every time, until someone dropped the full journal screenshots>>542144594>they already knew about the layoffs in october, maybe even earlierThat's true. I posted screenshots from different devs, including freelancers, canceling all sorts of internal launch events — some from November, but some dated early October. So they already knew everything before the official release. Even before early access
>>542156471>He kept screaming that they wrote that themselves every timeMinus the screaming, its a fair reaction to that fanfiction of a diary to wonder if its not an elaborate joke

Looks like that anon who shows up once a day to rant about the tranny game and tranny general might actually be right.Someone wrote 'woman' and suddenly it’s all 'dick dick dick'
>>542185180i'm sorry please don't hit me for my posts
>>542183957That's 4x2 days. Selected people go there for 2 days. Way more than the last focus groups.DE2 and remake talks.TV series maybe, but amazon have their own way usually.
>>542184503>questions got real specific>the way they talk about the NDAwhat changed?
>>542185497The questions aren't really specific, I screenshotted what you can find when you open the link
Most of them are basic stuff, they still ask you which games in LIS have you played and how you rank them. There's one question asking in which rank to not interested to very much would you be in future LIS games, but that's vague enough as of right now.If you select that you never bought or disliked DE, they will ask you to write down you reasons why, still asking feedback on DE those retards
>>542186636>they will ask you to write down you reasons whyTell them you were too busy seething to care
>>542187258You seethe
>>542187258look at this dumbass saying he played DE and didn’t like it. meanwhile here they usually scream about how they "never played it" and just watched one streamer once
>>542190340You are deeply unwell and grasping at straws, anon, apparently even a simple test to verify a thing is enough to make you seethe. Guess the real clown was the one projecting all along
>>542190340It gets even funnier — in the plebbit thread where they're discussing the focus groups, one of those clowns ended up basically quoting Max from the game. The line she says when talking about Amanda.

>>542194603>https://litter.catbox.moe/f719o8uv678x1x32.zipCada posted it. It was an online research as opposed to the other ones being call to focus groups
>>542233943This.6 million copies sold on a $5M budget vs 51k copies with $9M spent. Iconic characters recognized beyond the genre, even beyond vidya spectrum, vs some uggos no gamer could name in a lineup. Michel, it's over, bro.

Reposting the UEposer anon collection so he can be brought back into the thread again
>>542237869Sold way more than 6 million. It's that much on steam. Sold more on consoles.Vampyre was good, should have made more of that.
>>542246952No, that's total sales. We broke it down in the previous thread

>>542251364You seethe
>>5422530386 million figure is backed by literally everything - SE's own clean sales stats, achievement data, aggregator sites. What you're spewing is backed by nothing.But keep seething, fag. It's entertaining.
I remember when I was fresh and naive and I thought that LiS2 is a continuation from LiS2.Imagine my sheer disappointment
Will we ever find out what built the ruins the Asura took over when they came up to the surface?
>>5422494351 Day I will, maybeh not with UEUnlock it jus as lame as DE
>>542266572cry more
>>542254813No it isn't you retard. You really are autistic. All data we have on this are flawed. But just going by all platforms and that about 1-5 percent of people leave a review we get way more than 6 million. Even the mobile game has 100k reviews and 5 million downloads.
>>542267712>>542266572SUFFER LITTLE GIRL
>>542270273Does the mobile LIS version has a free firsr episode model download? A lot of those are free rather than being bought
>>542266572We all miss the OG anon, but you can do a lot with the Daz render too
>>542270273
>>542240815Yes, thank you for posting a picture of a fat chick and one that looks like a tranny to prove the point
>>542271570The first episode is free on both iOS and Android, but you need to buy the full game to leave a review or rating. It has around 10k reviews on iOS and 100k on Android.Steam: 170K reviews = roughly 5–6 million PlayStation: 119K ratings = about 5–6 millionMobile: 110K reviews = around 1–2 millionNo idea about Xbox, but it’s probably somewhere between the Steam and PlayStation numbers.But the game clearly sold more than 6 million copies. Normally only between 1-5 percent of buyers write a review or leave a rating. This is true no matter what product we are talking about.
>>542274058Ok chud
>>542275854>LIS1 moved 1 million paid copies in its first year on the marketThat was the game's peak sales year. After that, sales dropped off hard, Square started mixing in giveaways to pad the stats.There won't be much more than 6 million copies
>>542275854So, how does it compare the massive success with the high expectations SE had for the future games?
>>542275854There is also physical sales. Everyone seems to have forgotten that's a thing. >>542278585Not really seeing the argument. I just googled it. First page. Sold 3 million by 2017. https://www.gamesindustry.biz/life-is-strange-was-bought-by-3-million-people
cada, no one will trust you with survey group info because you are known to instantly point fingers publicly at who fed you infoare you aware Aysha even got a cease and desist from square thanks to your "part two" screenshot?no one in this fandom will ever give you jackshit because you will get them sued
>>542300473As much of a retard Cada is, Aysha is no better in spilling beans out, which from one side is useful but from the other side only reinforce how deeply stupid the DE team was
>>542300473As if Farah needed someone else to talk about DE2. She talked about it on bluesky and on podcast, creep.
>>542237614Wrong quote. But keep seething
>>542287178By that point SE had already stopped reporting actual sales and started mixing in free downloads, giveaways, bundles — whatever made the numbers look good.The dude's source is literally 'Dontnod said' 'in a blog post' with a dead SE link. So, let's not
>>542326371Oh I see, you are dishonest. Good to know. everyone can ignore you. Because you have no arguments at all. A public company cannot lie about their sales.
>>542334596you seethe
>>542334596Just ignore the trolls
>>542278587no clue what they were thinking. the sequel and prequel sold each like 7x worse than the original. no franchise recovers from that - AAA or 'prestige' mid-budget AA, doesn't matter>>542334596you've already been told from every angle you're an idiot. the game sold 1 million in its first year. that article's dated May 2017. so you're claiming it sold 2 million more in under a year? show me one game with that kind of sales curve
>>542300473Do people not remember her claiming to have spoken with someone from D9, without offering a single piece of evidence? Or how she insists they’re already working on the next game after Double Exposure? She’s clearly not well and really shouldn’t be given more attention. She has serious delusions of grandeur and makes a lot of things up. She just got lucky with Aysha, but everyone could see what she wrote.
>A public company cannot lie about their sales
>>542334596You used a source anon, that is better than most of the people here. Just ignore them.
>>542336658>"Sony does those quirky animations with their characters in GoW and TloU, lets do it too!">do it only once >nobody even remember this was a thing in the first place
>>542336340But Before the Storm was successful enough for D9 to continue working on the series, and so TC was, at least in the long term. Life is Strange was always an outlier with its sales, and going foward they wouldn't have never been able to gain a similar success. DE was a massive flop because they believed Max alone would have been able to sell and recoup a bloated 30 millon budget, which did not happened
If they based Double Expsoure around Arcadia bay and we saw the return of a lot of the old characters. Would it have sold better or worse?
>>542337173>You used a source anonthat's really impressive for someone with the brain of an 8-year-oldthe source itself, by the way: http://na.square-enix.com/us/node/7029>>542337770>But Before the Storm was successful enough for D9 to continue working on the seriesi'm afraid it was only considered a success because it cost way less than lis2, despite selling about the same. though that's kinda misleading too, because lis2 had way more resources thrown at it, mostly to build assets for future titles and other backened stuff>and so TC was, at least in the long termtc got really lucky with timing, and probably covid helped too. i heard the gross revenue was double the dev cost. some aggregators list ~$30 mil revenue on a $15 mil budget - if true, that's solid>DE was a massive flop>recoup a bloated 30 millon budgeti stopped tracking numbers when it was around $10 mil in revenue. that was around new year's i believe. the ultimate edition brought in a bit over $2 mil, afair
>>542340075>If I write things they must be trueWe get it. You are an idiot
>>542341349you seethe
>>542338890>Would it have sold better or worse?It would sell the same
>>542340075You say without a single source, expect claiming that they are lying about the sales numbers
>>542342373It took literally like 10 seconds to find their numbers for BtS, LiS2, and TC
>>542340075Anon, your link is dead btwAnd DE has likely sold less than 10 millions otherwise they wouldn't have call it "very poor"
>>542342939>i heard the gross revenue was double the dev cost. some aggregators list ~$30 mil revenue on a $15 mil budget - if true, that's solidUnless there's a dev who spilled how much TC costed, they should have brought a source in
>>542344920>your linklink's not mine, it's that idiot's. pay attention or quit shitting up the thread>otherwise they wouldn't have call it "very poor"so you think pulling in 10 mil off a 30 mil budget isn't "very poor"?
>>542337184>do it only onceThey just used that animation two days ago
>>542346548Lucy had to recycle it in her TikTok edits, not an high bar.
>>542346036Anon, you are the one who posted that link, I checked out and didn't work, stop being mad>so you think pulling in 10 mil off a 30 mil budget isn't "very poor"?It is poor, but its likely worse if a part of that tracking didn't take notice of the people who refuned after the early access, meaning it could be on 8-7 millions.
How much do you believe DE2 is going to lose in money? I don't think there's reasonable chances it can fix the issues on DE1 and the online negative word of mouth is higher than before, the only way you would reasonably sell is to make a serious marketing campaign to regain the lost trust. But looking at how gave no advertising to that PS5 collection, they won't put much effort in DE2 even
>>542346657It's on LiS's twitter
>>542347359They are going to lose no matter what. All they can hope for is the show saving them and that bringing in new people. But they will fuck it up again, because they are idiots and LiS was never suppose to have a sequel. Its impossible to make one.

>>542412312Based on what, her own ass?
>>542412312October 20 what?
>>542412312Cada talks to voices in her head. She is not mentally stable.
>>542413659A trailer or announcement.
>>542418184On what evidence?
Chromatic's Ruth Radelet has been interviewed by Adnan
No new prose story.
>>542420957Emma had to say no? Price fielders lose again
>>542419713We don't need evidence.
>>542420957Weird how they're only reissuing volume One.You'd think it would be better to release a complete box set.
>>542413659A trailer announcement October 20th or game awards
>>542446316Announcement on the 20th, two-day focus groups starting the 27th. Hmm...
Was about to do my yearly replays of LiS and TC and was thinking of you guys. Looks like the shitposters haven't died down, but I've been enjoying not having the stress of this place sitting in my tabs lately. Rachel sliced her thumb open trying to cut zucchini and had to get stitches, so she hasn't been able to do her replay and is very annoyed.
>>542435383they should be happy, emmaslop sucked ass
>>542435383You seethe
>>542454497Cada now says there's no announcement on October 20 because of the focus groups
>>542439069An absolute omnibus edition of the whole comic arc would make a lot more sense desu
>>542464174What else is she saying? I tuned out that madhouse newsletter a while back
>>542464757Nothing of substance, you're better off letting her go on her own mind
New Production Discussion with the Dmitri dude just dropped. Interesting revelation in this one. He basically said his company was involved in adaptation talks for LiS even before the first game released.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wbk70hix0dcInteresting Quote:"My biggest challenge is keeping my mouth closed when fans have big opinions and there's so many assumptions made off a simple press release. (Things) you just want to like correct, and you can't... you have to do (that) with the release of the work. We're living it right now with Life is Strange. There are a lot of feelings around that one. And again, that's another example of an IP we were involved with *before* the first game came out....""So when the fans are feeling protective, I assure you we are equally protective as we were there before the game even released. But you can't say that. You're not gonna go on and battle with people on Twitter. So for me it's just shutting up and trying to give that comfort that these things are with people who care. You still have to make the best film and TV possible. But you know its being made by fans who care about these things"Earlier in the interview he noted that if you're trying to create an adaptation you better care about it, because you don't get paid anything until it gets a green-light. i.e., he's spent 9 years trying to create a LiS adaptation, without getting paid for all that time. He then calls out Producers who don't give a shit."There are predatory producers out there who will never play a game. They just know a title and be exploitative. (...) End of the day we root for every adaptation, we want them all to work. We just want to make sure they're in the right hands and with people who actually care."
>>542458560Hope all is well Coffee shop anon.
>>542467501There's some more LiS talk at the end of that interview with the Mike Goldberg dude who's also at StoryKitchen.https://youtu.be/Wbk70hix0dc?si=UmhX5DGG2xMNaZQ8&t=2539Reading between the lines, sounds like the show might start filming in the summer.When asked what he's excited about, Goldberg dude said this.Mike Goldberg: "I am so excited that our Square-Enix videogame adaptation of Life is Strange has finally come to fruition. It is finally green-lit. It's Charlie Covell who is the writer/creator/showrunner for 'The End of the F**king World" and most recently 'Kaos'. That is one that (Dimitri) had partnered on with Square Enix before the game came out. The game came out, I believe January 2015. He partnered (in) winter of 2014. And speaking of technology. That show was green-lit and then un-greenlit through Legendary Digital going through the new OTT platform Hulu. And then it was unwound.""Then it was happening as second time with two TV studios coming together. And then it was unwound. And from there to put this partnership together with Amazon-MGM, Prime, Lucky Chap, Charlie Covell, Square Enix... it has been such a Herculean effort. But it is the first videogame to win a Peabody award. The only videogame to win two Peabody Awards. It merges art and games and now we get to do it for a linear medium. It's (got) strong LGBTQ stories and everything about it...Dmitri: "It's also the first videogame that had a 50/50 male/female demographic split. Because that was the era with 90%, 95% men, depending on the week. Mike Goldberg: "We get to have meetings about it every day as we prep for the summer. (...) It's so exciting, it's like the dream coming true.
>>542467501>There are predatory producers out there who will never play a game. They just know a title and be exploitative. (...) End of the day we root for every adaptation, we want them all to work. We just want to make sure they're in the right hands and with people who actually careThat seems like a description of the London SE people kekit reassures me a little that Dmitri seems to be very in touch with what fans are worrying about

>>542481678They are doing it so badly too and they are years behind what Sony is doing
>>542481803No idea about the cease and desist, anon, but the moment she bragged here about DMing her on BlueSky, I messaged Aysha with the full rundown on Cada's real motives and all. Next thing you know, Cada's whining that she stopped replying
