>Rich white people the game.

Why was this trash so popular?
>>
>>340365727
frenchfag developers who literally cannot stop making shit games and whose entire dev team consists of mid-20s talentless hipsters with degrees in photography and post-colonial slam poetry who spend most of their days posting on twitter on their laptops with coexist and antifa stickers on the back, saw the success of telltale's walking dead games and decided to copy them but add their own unique twist. only they're fucking incompetent and can't make a proper coherent narrative, let alone an entire game, and instead shit out the schlockiest piece of degrassi tier high school drama in video game form with zero gameplay and meme voice actors like anthony burch's sister. plus, french people, being naturally autistic, managed to make the writing cringingly awkward in an attempt to mimic the average hipster teen's vernacular and ended up creating sheer comedy instead. it was basically just an attempt to make an """emotional""" story that tumblrina snowflakes could relate to, down to the very part where every single character was white and affluent and a walking caricature, and they did just that, as the game perfectly reflected its fanbase by being a living meme

Because it makes any problems this character has meaningless.

"Oh boo-hoo I got accepted into a prestigious art academy in the hipster hell-hole that is Western Oregon"

"Oh waaanh I got magic time travel and instead of doing anything smart with it lemme just rewind 13 seconds and kiss the teachers ass with a fact I know now"

She's a fucking edgy teenager who has the cringiest dialogue I've heard since FF 13

Not to mention her blue haired hippy ass-clown of a friend is a total fuck-up and deserves no sympathy at all.

>>340365727
The dialogue and conclusion of this game were laughably trash, but the orange, nostalgic color scheme and folk music
and the Oregon small town setting were all comfy as fuck desu.
>>
>>340369806
The problem being that if you live in a small Oregon town (or on the West coast at all) it just comes off as stupid. The developers were French what the fuck do they know about Hipster American girls and the language they use.

It reads like a genuine complain but the over use or misuse of memes takes it down a couple of notches.

I actually enjoyed Life is Strange a lot. I expected it to just be Tumblr: The Game, and in some ways it was, with how transparent the political bias of the developers was, but I didn legitimately care about the story and characters.

Just how

The only character even remotely likeable was that photography teacher, and the story was meaningless.
>>
Life is Strange is GREAT storytelling with a mediocre story

It did a great job at making us feel for the characters, making the world feel authentic, and just had a lot of really nice little moments and gave a lot of space to let those moments sink in instead of rushing you around like every other game seems to these days. In terms of storytelling it blasts everything that telltale did out of the water and it's harder to play those game now.

But the story itself is at best generic and at worst hurts the game. The dialogue is often clunky and the plot is ludicrous. It's a testament to the games other strengths that it feels so cheap and in some ways a betrayal to the core values that made the other episodes such a delight and a unique experience.

rich white people and their children are the fucking worst, their problems are trivial and they love to make mountains out of molehills to convince everyone else that they're real people too. Look at tumblr, it's full of rich white teens and young adults and they literally make up new identities in order to feel oppressed.

Because I'm scum. Also, I have a policy where I won't allow myself to buy another game until I sink at least one hour of gameplay per dollar that I spend on the game. Retarded, I know, but it helps to limit my spending. I had to fill the time somehow, you know?

I'm still convinced that the flutter of this butterflys wings caused the weather disturbance. It was clear that the writers were basing their stuff off the chaos theory.
