Good OP post is back, will keep it bumped whenever possible.
Why is /lisg/ Flatlined?
Last bump before the thread dies again.
>>575492356Because what else is there to do?It has massively outlived many, many other game generals that sprung up after it's conception. But the series is over. A TVshow and a Book are not really enough to go on into the future. Max & Chloe got their happy ending. Maybe it's just time to organically let it slip away.
>>575506843New people are discovering the games all the time, but they are not coming to 4chan in 2026. I'm sure even Tumblr has a more active community now.
Warren/Kate is cute and canon
>>575492356Because the latest pissfield fanfiction put the final nail in the coffin for whatever remaining interest there was in the series
>>575514741Yeah, I think this might be the main problem. 4chan used to be pretty popular and somewhat well known. That is not the case anymore
>>575533698Yeah right, blame 4chan.Just look at other generals, anon. They are alive and kicking even for games that haven't had a new release in years. Meanwhile, the last LiS game came out literally 4 months ago.
>>575506843I guess the interesting part now is the TV show. It could give the LiS fandom a second life. The game series is obviously dead, and I don't think anyone is going to make another game. I have seen some people suggest a remake of the original in a few years, though, and that would be nice.The TV show will probably make or break the franchise. Just look at the Arcane fandom. There used to be Discord servers with hundreds of active members. These days they're mostly dead. There are still people around, but nowhere near as many as there were in 2024. I think the same thing will happen with LiS unless the show gives it a second life
>>575506843This ending was anything but happy, and honestly, it felt completely unfulfilling for everyone. That's exactly why the fandom is dead inside right now, even though the game just dropped and they're already filming the tv show
>>575536016Is there like any other fandom that is kind of old and still going strong?
>>575537764>still going stronglol,LMAO even
>>575537764There are some old and active communities out there. I know of some that haven't had any new content since the 1990s and are still going somewhat strong. The good thing about games is that new people will always discover them
>>575536016>There used to be Discord servers with hundreds of active members. These days they're mostly dead. There are still people around, but nowhere near as many as there were in 2024.Grooming wellspring dried up it seems.
>>575485707Max is such an immensely beautiful girl.
>>575492356Why is Chloe flatlined?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dWeyf_qBckchttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zx7vxWXH0FA
>>575540182especially in that dress
>>575540280actually I think she's every bit as gorgeous in her hoodie and jeans
I see that Reunion has officially outsold Lost Records. If we can trust vg insights
>>575540182she's got a GREAT ASS
>>575540280Practically glowing, and no it's the sun, now that she doesn't have dead weight holding her back.
>>575545727that's exactly what i meant
>>575544531That's a shame. I liked LR. But I do kind of understand why it sold poorly
>>575546420Hey, what are you implying?! Haven't you heard SE coped with 'exceeded expectations'?
>>575544852true
at least SE can lean on their other franchisesDN will disappear by the end of the year
>>575547469Don't Nod's own cope was that LR sold within their expectations but it still sold like ass. They still have terrible long-term planning after all this time.
Problem with LR is that it practically stopped selling and even during sales periods it has sold poorly. I just don't see how they can make it into some sort of franchise
>>575548313POV Dylan sex scene
So imagine that Game of Thrones was a thing when LiS came out. Who would the support who?Max would surely support the Starks
>>575552451Victoria would be a Tyrell fan Max and Chloe would support the Starks Warren would support Stannis Kate would support the faith Not sure about the rest
>>575548313Don'tnod refused to make a sequel to Life is Strange. Economic realities forced them to try again and it’s too late
>>575548313Unfortunately I think don'tnod is at the end of their road. But all things must end
>>575485813Was looking at the links. It was struck with so much nostalgia. It sure was cozy here for a long time. The YouTube link is gone by the way
>>575566723Time waits for no one anon
>>575571859Max disagrees.
>>575566512Don'tNod might not last longer, D9 is already out the door, and SE probably doesn't give a rat ass about Life is Strange, at this point why bother anymore?
>>575544531vg insights usually exclude steam cuts so its probably even
>>575544531Gamalytic has it at 98k for Reunion and 112k for LR. But give it one sale and I think they will be even and Reunion will run past LR over time
>>575584348It's easier being a fan of a series that won't get sequels. At least they won't keep fucking it up.
>>575591447Imagine coping for a year and a half about how 'only Pricefield sells' just for Slopunion to be neck and neck with LR. Truly a tragic comedy.
>>575552451>So imagine that Game of Thrones was a thing when LiS came outI don't have to imagine it because Game of Thrones came out in 2011
>>575591447>game without a built-in fanbase sold better than the one that has a "sizeable" amount>even when it was free on ps plusholy grimoli
we are all grahammarsh shippers
>>575591868It did sell, no matter what you tell yourself fun_inside. I look forward to the day the gap gets really close. What will you tell yourself then
>>575611169>fun_insideObsessed
>>575603874Lol all that posturing just for Pissfield to be a complete joke, unable to beat the sales of a game that was literally handed out for free
>>575554114Victoria would support the Lannisters. What are you even talking about
>>575614425Reunion is worse off compared to LR imo because DN didn't go out of their way to make a deluxe edition at launch, LR only had that vinyl and measly physical months later. I genuinely don't even know if anyone bought Reunion's deluxe edition lmao.
>>575611216its x3nosaga, the other DEfender who makes those long ass redditor rants when its favourite fanfiction gets criticized
>>575619001Could be both, there is one anon has all of the dumb talking points of fun_inside and at times even that persons way of writing
>>575620245>>575619718Based Snora.
>>575621031Just post the original game screenshot instead of this AI slopfest
https://x.com/i/status/2082208345922867251Zimmerman has moved on. The DE gang is still looking for work
>>575626464>Rachel is here
>>575636371bodied that bitch
a smart girl ye
replaying the original again bros
>>575619001>>575620086>can't even use proper pronouns or basic relative clauses>unironically tries to analyze someone else's "way of writing"The absolute state of ESL retards in this thread.
>>575653657Don't forget to save Kate.
>>575654726Hit a nerve I see xeno
>>575660245keep seething, chlorefag
>>575654726What a pussy
>>575654726many such cases
>>575621296Good for him
>>575660519Keep seething xeno, hope those ten years of waiting have been worth it
>>575669983The deranged chloefag is completely desperate: 'you're fun_inside! no, you're xeno!'Keep seething, you pathetic dork.
>>575621296Deandra was smart. She got out early. Stauder just keeps falling upwards for some reason. But the rest of the DE writers are still looking for work.
>>575671392>But the rest of the DE writers are still looking for work.the two who actually dumped chlorine ended up doing pretty well for themselves, securing comfortable writing gigs in the AAA space
So what do we think about our Chloe?
>>575680867raw no condom
>>575680867Nothing good, unfortunately. Aside from being a shortlet with a gormless face and a completely mid body, she didn't even bother to dye her hair properly
>>575680867I don't want to sound too superficial, but Chloe is tall and really attractive. This person is kind of short and plump. I guess we will see how she and Max work to together
