What does /v/ think of Life is Strange?
>>
nice film
>>
>>319787769
Deeply flawed but I have a lot of sympathy for the approach they went with. But because of those flaws it becomes a really easy target which makes it hard to discuss it properly.

Overall it was cute ans pleasant
>>
>>319787769
It's strange.
>>
>>319787769
Made great porn.

>>319787769
comfy

Better than telltale shit, that's for DAMN sure.
>>
>>319787769
Does /v/ think?
>>
>>319787769
Overall, it's good. I wish they did more with the ending though. I was expecting the storm to be the result of the Prescott family dishonoring the Native Americans and the reason Max got her powers from the spirit animals was so she could find evidence of Prescotts doing stuff because if the storm hit Arcadia Bay a lot of animals would die too.

God awful Tumblr tier cringe fest, just look at some dialogue videos and judge for yourself. It had decent potential though

>just look at some dialogue videos and judge for yourself
that's not really fair though. I think if you play the game and can immerse yourself in the story and the character even a little bit, the cringey dialogue becomes more tolerable
>>
best game of 2015

It's for lesbians

>doesn't provide any evidence of flaws

okay anon
>>
it's ok
>>
It was better then I expected honestly and I didn't have as much of a problem with the ending as everyone else did. Do you think for season 2 they're gonna with the chloe saved ending or hopefully the one where she dies and fucks off?

That's why they call you, super max
>>
>>319793031
outside of the use of "hella" the dialogue was fine
>>
>>319793337
The whole awkward portrayal of what a bunch of middle aged keks think teenage pop culture is was more than enough to put me off

Not even close. Tales from the Borderlands danced circles around it. Wolf among us is probably their weakest and least known game, and it even sold more and people talk about it more. Obviously GoT did well and their WD shit, for better or worse is massively better objectively and it's more well received critically.

Life is Strange is just ok. I don't know why people say it's better than TT shit. Just to be contrarian?
>>
Had potential. Turned out to be utter shit.

>>319787769
It was exactly what I expected, a poor attempt at 30-50 year olds to create something from the perspective of 15 year olds.

It feels more like an interactive Disney teen movie than anything real.
>>
>>319791106
Absolutely. Choices actually felt like they mattered, or at least there was a ton of unique dialogue for each path
>>
>>319797247

This isn't even feasible bait.
>>
>>319797247
this, even the euthanize chloe option has more weight to it despite it not meaning anything, was surprised you could talk about it in ep.5
>>
>>319797786
What does she say if you actually euthanize her? I was going to but I realized that's what she wanted so I chose not to because I hoped she would get pissed off at me later on about it but she didn't really.
>>
>>319798201
Can't really remember, she just felt sad for you because of it i think
>>
>>319798380
Same when you don't do it then she just says "Wow that must have been awful I can't believe you had to go through that!" Or something along those lines
>>
>>319795647
Yeah but did any of those games win any awards at the game awards like Life is Strange won?
>>
>>319798497
Must be only Max's dialogue that changes then.

Nice try, Warren. Go ape yourself.

If she does, enjoy the taste, it's Victoria's snatch.

Waifu fags, there is nothing more left of you game. Do you feel it?

Max is hot
But her voice actor is ruins the character for me

polacks out now

Decent mystery, shit ending.

Don't watch YouTube videos if you haven't played it yet.

Go in blind.
>>
With each episode, agency and choice impact is reduced. As long as you know this is the trend in the game and are okay with your choices meaning fuck all in the final stretch, it's a good ride. Not great, but still good.
>>
>>319787769

Max is borderline retarded
Chole is straight up retarded and a shitty person to boot


It's like they took active measure to avoid doing anything interesting with the time travel concept.

Choices don't matter because it's a moviegame
>>
>>319800597
they did lots of interesting things with the time travel though
>>
>>319791106
you must be stupid as fuck

worst "game" i played this year

Like petting squirrels

and really awful stealth

and chaos theory (chaos theory means magic right?)

Max's dialogue is literally the only dialogue that changes in the game. That's why it all lacks weight.
>>
>>319801000

Just listing the super interesting time travel things famicon

nice triples though
>>
Literally finished this game 5 min ago

One of best games I've played, ending pretty much made all choices not matter.

I sacrificed Arcadia Bay
>>
>Warren died a kissless virgin

feels good.
>>
>>319787769
The protagonist can manipulate time as she fit yet she uses her powers only to talk to people and recover piece of papers that she ruined

The characters are annoying and onedimensional but I guess they are supposed to be boring teenagers, the whole game is pure teenage drama afterall

The bad guy has no motivation at all, Jefferson is an accomplished, famous, rich photograph, if he wanted to take pics to dumb teenager all he has to do is to ask, manipulating a sociopath to do his bidding seems stupidly unnacessary

"Big themes" are badly implemented: how am I supposed to take seriously euthanasia when I'm an all powerful being discovering new time traveling powers every day?

About that, no explanation is just lazy writing.

Ending point: Chloe is bad so I couldn't care less about sacrificient her, actually I kept thinking for the whole game that if Max didn't save her everything would've been solved right from the start. Fun fact that would be exactly the ending.

>>319802429
My Warren died a happy wildly fucked om the spot because he's an awesome person, fuck you dirty lesbian
>>
>>319787769
I liked it but the character models looked like playdough unfortunately. I'm hoping that they look closer to their official art like OP's picture in the sequel.
>>

My game of the year

Tales from the Borderlands is a way better movie.
>>
>>319795647
Because there was some actual game in LiS

The intro of Tales from the Borderlands was better than the entire five chapters of Life is Strange.

That looks like it should be the cover of an N64 game. I can already imagine the entire right side with all the details.

Rated T for teen. Only on N64. Rumble Pak compatible. Expansion Pak compatible.
>>
Waiting for the Japanese dub
>>
I enjoyed, the last episode was kinda rushed though.

Also the Vortex Club scenes, renegade Max is fucking awesome. And it showed her ever breaking desperation, better than Max making friends with everyone during a critical moment.
>>
>>319806052
The ending of episode 1 is more atmospheric than anything Telltale has done
>>
>>319787769
Enjoyed a lot of it, really loved the idea of its last choice, but both endings were handled poorly. Was disappointing.

Fuck the town, I just wanted to hang out with my best friend.

KATE MOVED OUT OF TOWN ON FRIDAY.
YOU DON'T NEED SAVING, BITCH.

Bae over bay.
>>
I was hoping for alot more with Rachel

Like she having the powers but kept everyone at a distance, trying to fix things without involving anyone and eventually biting her in the ass. Unlike Max who while not as individually talented could rely on others to supplement her own character.

Would have been a perfect foil

youre a moron, jefferson specifically said he didnt want teens to model for him because they would always be "acting"
>>
>>319810783
Interactive walking with cutscenes is not a game.
>>
>>319787769
Warren helped me realize how women view beta keks. And that they're right to treat them like trash.
>>
god tier atmosphere
>>
>>319812008
Films usually are good at creating atmospheres, because there's no gameplay.
>>
>>319798595
did it win any awards for voice acting?
because the voice acting in the game was fucking atrocious. actress for max was speaking in this crying whisper the entire time
>>
>>319812129
Remember Me also had God tier atmosphere.
>>
>>319812129

Did LiS really need gameplay? Maybe some more puzzles but once you start throwing in too many 'gamey' elements then it starts to take away from the overall experience.
>>
>>319802465
This anon doesnt understand art.
>>
it was ok.

i really like the art direction. some scenes were good, some choices were good, the ending was ehhh.

>>319802021
the ending where you save chloe kinda have all the choices you made up to the end of the world dance matter. we dont really know how the people you save in the diner turn out.
