I have a torrent of all the games music, Morali's OST, the Vortex Club party, all the licensed songs (most in lossless format), and all the albums they were taken from.
There may or may not be several songs I just found. I'm going to investigate them, see if I missed any. I'll probably post about them next thread.

You fucked up the numbering fuck off.
this is the real, non fucked up thread
I've been thinking a bit about some of the story line issues we've been having with Episode 5. And the more I think about it, the more I think Episode 4 might have just really thrown us off what we had been previously thinking. I remember that prior to Ep4's release, the general opinion around these parts was that the story itself was pretty lacklustre, and that most people were only interested in the characters. Some perspective:
Remember that pretty much ALL the plot occurs in Ep4. Ep1 introduces the characters, introduces Max's powers, introduces the concept that Rachel Amber is missing ... and that's it. Nothing plot-wise is set up, Max has no leads on anything at all, there is no serious notion of finding Rachel, etc. In the first 10 minutes of Ep2, Max is told by Kate that she was drugged and kidnapped, and that Nathan had something to do with it. This lets her draw some vague connection between Kate, Rachel and Nathan. And we're introduced to Frank, who has some connection to Rachel. Max now has some leads, but it is mostly just setup still. In Ep3 they spend a lot of time strengthening the Max/Chloe relationship, but don't actually push the plot forward (the note in the Principal's office merely confirms something we already know - there is a connection between Rachel and Nathan; Frank's RV confirms that he was just a red herring).
Then Ep4 comes along and we actually do what Max should have done since the start of Ep2, and directly investigate Nathan. This is what actually pushes the plot forward and leads to the dark room, Rachel's body, Jefferson ...
1/2
>>122338351
Fuck that's perfect.
>>122338417
Prior to Ep4's release, we were all pretty blasé about the plot. We were still interested in it, of course, but I don't think anyone was holding any particularly high hopes that it would turn out to be some mystery masterpiece. We were still making fun of the "Max has to rewind and let Chloe die to save the town" suggestions, but I don't think we were suspecting anything much beyond that. The characters > plot was something that a reasonable number of people were concerned about.
So I feel like Ep4 especially ruined us in this regard. All the plot squished into one episode - complete with late setup for new, specific red herrings (eg. Sean Prescott) ... only for it to not have anywhere to go. But if Ep4 had been more of the same, and focused more on cutesy slice-of-life stuff (eg. replace some of the Madsen/Frank scenes with some cute Pricefield activity, and just have Nathan's files give a direct address to the dark room?) ... maybe we'd be much less upset that the "mystery" turned out to be fairly lame? I could see a "well, the game was always mostly about the characters" argument having been popular in such a situation.
I dunno, it just seems that looking back, our perspective on the importance of the story/mystery was reasonably different between Episodes 3 and 4. That Ep4 was so strong in this regard might just have been one of the bigger problems of Ep5?
Thoughts?

Maybe, but then the endings would've been especially insulting, considering that in the game about characters we don't get an epilogue telling us what happened to those characters.

They were introduced, but they were never really pushing the main plot anywhere. I think we were all expecting them to be resolved BY the main plot at some point (eg. Rachel's kidnapping/murder had something to do with the storm, spirits, etc). Of course, they were neither resolved, nor part of the main plot.
>>122338771
Ehh, I was never too bothered by the whole "no epilogue" side of things. It would have been neat, and I can see why some people are disappointed that it wasn't there ... but it doesn't feel like such a huge missing element to me.
>>122338530
>>122338417
I dunno, I feel like we were always very curious about the mystery. Just the game itself paced it very poorly from a plot perspective. After episode 3, I recall there were a LOT of complaints that there had been practically zero movement on the mystery the entire season thus far.
The problem with the ending wasn't just that it shafted the mystery, but it also shafted the characters. The only thing "resolved" in the finale (if you can call it that) is the storm, which was sidelined so hard the entire game that even the damn protagonist keeps forgetting about it like she has freaking short term memory loss.
All in all, this game juggled a lot of things and just did a bad job at connecting and resolving them all.
I do agree though that episode 4 was the real game changer and raised expectations beyond a reasonable point. Maybe they had a plan to pay it all off and just flubbed the landing, or maybe they wrote themselves into a corner.
It's interesting that there have been quite a few people playing the game all in one go who actually say episode 4 is where the series went downhill for that very reason, while those of us who played it as it was released generally thought it was incredible for the excitement and suggestion of imminent payoff after such a long wait.

Hm, I'm not sure I agree completely. If anything I - and people in this thread - were kind of disappointed with the Dark Room and Jefferson reveal in Episode 4 because it seemed so lame. But people were still somewhat optimistic it was going to be all connected in some great scheme somehow.
I mean, you are right. There was no real advancing mystery investigation plot prior to Episode 4, but there was always the suggestion of a dwelling mystery and all the subtle stuff we could pick up on around the game and think about. With how many theories people have had, how much time people spent thinking about how it could all fit together and turn out, I don't think the importance of the plot or underlying mysteries was only or even just primarily introduced with Episode 4. At least I can't remember that "characters > plot" was how purely people actually felt. I've seen more theory videos than character studies, for example.
I mean, it's obvious now and was then that at the core LiS is character-driven and that the sci-fi elements and everything really only served to support that. That's what the devs said in interviews too after all. But I don't think it's Episode 4's fault that people are this disappointed with how most of the mystery, sci-fi and subplotty elements were left unresolved or thrown away.
I mean, if you are trying to say: "The game is good at what it aims to be good at, and the mystery stuff at least was fun while it lasted and we broke our heads over it, right?" I would tend to agree, but it's still disappointing.
Maybe for one-go playthroughs your thoughts would more accurately apply. Without months to think about the game the plot would probably get noticably more important with Episode 4. And the player wouldn't be so disappointed then because he didn't spend months thinking about the mysteries to begin with... However, the mystery stuff was very much an integral part of the series and my "LiS experience" - well before 4.

Rachel was actually an alien. She gave Max her powers and caused the tornadoes and all the other weird shit because Frank's drugs reacted in a very bad way with her alien brain.

Maybe not epilogue in the narrower sense, which I admittedly didn't really miss too much either, - but many of the character stories didn't have a too satisfying conclusion prior to the ending either. We are left to imagine most of that. Is Victoria's (optional) Dark Room scene really a satisfying conclusion? What about Nathan, David and Chloe not getting to reconcile (only we know they were both willing to)? Warren and Joyce felt sloppy too. Hell, Rachel's story wasn't too satisfyingly concluded either with Jefferson's "Oh, yeah, Nathan the dumbass overdosed her lol". Maybe if the dream had been "her" (which I still like to think is reasonable; a model/voice would have been cool htough), but apparently it was simply Max's subconscious acting out...
I think Chloe's and Max's story is mostly done well save maybe some little thing here or there you could bring up. So that's good. But there's so much more that could have been done to easily make the other character stories and their interconnections more apparent and conclude in a more satsfying way that gives proper closure.
>>122340012
I didn't mean to imply that nobody cared about the plot prior to Episode 4, because we certainly did. I meant that the reason people were so *invested* in the game was the characters, not the mystery. Like I said, we made fun of the "sacrifice Chloe to stop the storm" theories, but that IS more-or-less what we were expecting regardless.
I remember that one of the common worries following Ep3, while the plot had still not picked up - and while we had ended the episode in the alternate-timeline which would need more time to explain and wrap up - that Dontnod were going to be caught in a situation where they needed to hammer out all the plot together in only a few hours of gameplay ... after "wasting" so much time with slice-of-life stuff with Chloe. It would seem that this worry was somewhat justified - the "mystery" wrapped itself up very quickly, and a bunch of the other "mysterious" elements were just never addressed at all. I do agree that we would have been disappointed in this aspect (spirit animals, Max's powers, etc) even if Ep4 hadn't been as strong in the "plot" department.
I dunno, I just feel like Ep4 especially ramped it all up. The plot went from 0 to 100 in a single episode, then dropped back down to 0 in the first ~20 mins of Ep5. If Ep4 had followed more in the footsteps of Ep3, I think we would have all had much lower expectations, and been less let disappointed overall ... even if we still didn't have any answers at all for some elements (the spirits, etc). I'm not saying I wish we hadn't had Ep4 ... it just feels like a bit of an awkward situation in this way to me.
As much of a disaster as Episode 5 was, I love this game.
Never before have I experienced nostalgia for a childhood I didn't have. Do any of our /german/ friends have a word for that?
Is there anything similar in existence? I didn't know I had this feel.

>>122340012
(I'm >>122339554 here)
I feel like the problem with the plot is they tried too hard to make it exciting and mainstream. In the early episodes, the mystery and characters were completely intertwined. For example, our interpretation of Nathan as a character directly impacted our theorisation of the plot - is he a lone date rapist, is he a soldier in something bigger, is he a manipulated pawn?
And all the characters were linked to the mystery like that in some way - David, while not a bad guy, was still stalking Kate and Rachel, and there were many theories that his paranoia was being manipulated without his knowledge. Same with Frank's lax attitude to drug dealing, Wells' willingness to accept bribes, etc.
It all seemed very Twin Peaksy, using Rachel's disappearance as a mere vehicle to explore the general corruption of the town - not just what's happening, but how and why. It was very slow boil and understated, which was a tone I immensely enjoyed. It felt like everyone in town, in some small way, was an unwitting (or wilfully ignorant, or unwilling, entirely wilful) participant in this horrible event - that it wasn't a great conspiracy per se, but a series of small evils and failures to do good. That the story would be an exploration of why bad shit happens despite the reality that no one innately WANTS to be a bad person, or for bad things to happen. But they still do, and we all have our part to play - just like the build up of stress and inaction that pushed Kate to the roof.
Then episode 4 and 5 suddenly shot for superficial adrenaline, which flew in the face of all that was set up and just isn't Dontnod's strong suit.
Jefferson is scapegoated as a great big bad villain and serial killing lunatic, Max is scapegoated as the lone cause of the storm, everything's just dumbed right down all of a sudden.
what the fuck
>>122341996
>not the second post of the thread
shameful display
>>122341260
Fair enough, I mean ultimately this is about how we feel about the game anyway, right?
I personally was very much invested in the mystery plot. I was dying to find out what happened with Rachel and just who she was. And many of the other characters were kind of part of that "mystery" as well, since they still could have all been involved somehow. So yeah, again, if anything Episode 4 tamed my fire because it just made some great interwoven mystery less likely than it had been before. The worry was always there that they wouldn't be able to portray such a mystery in so little time, I was one of the people that voiced that. But we still hoped they had found some way - after all we knew they had a standing concept.
Maybe some people really never thought it was going to be much and joked about it non-ironically. I think a lot of people really had high investment and expectations regarding that side of the game though. I think your general sentiment with that "Episode 4" argument is valid. Namely that maybe how it all turned out wouldn't have been so bad if dontnod had never made a point of hinting at some big thing that was going on under the surface. But they did, and I think that was already there since Episode 1. And maybe without that the game wouldn't have been as popular. I certainly think it wouldn't. Everybody had their little "theory" and a lot of players actively discarded the character stuff and just played/followed the game to see what would happen; there was definitely a sci-fi playerbase.

>>122340736
Nathan couldn't even save himself. I think his willingness to just sit there and be murdered tells us a lot about how he got caught up in all this to begin with. For him to find the will power to turn all of a sudden would raise questions as to why he didn't do it before he had no other choice.
Unless maybe Victoria being kidnapped factored into it - I could possibly buy him turning for her sake. But Jefferson deciding to kidnap Victoria and kill Nathan would probably go hand in hand, he'd probably anticipate that he'd be a risk in that scenario.
His survival at the start of Polarized definitely should have been determinant though.
And we should have been given an option to react in a more satisfying way to that voicemail if he died - to see him once more in some manner now that we have that context, like we did with Kate/Vic/Jefferson in the classroom. Ideally with the actual character, but honestly even just replaying a previous conversation in the nightmare to reflect Max's new understanding would have done a world of difference - like how her classroom conversation with Jefferson becomes warped in the nightmare now that she knows who he really is.
In some ways, it was powerful to not be able to see him again after he was killed, but as I said his death should have been determinant, and if dead he was still missing some serious acknowledgement before the Bay ending.
He has such a huge role to play in that ending, and such an emotional one now that we know a fuller extent of his unwillingness to perform it. Max and Chloe were able to have a huge climactic conversation, to agree to the scene and prepare for it before going through with it. But Nathan's just plonked in there after being forgotten the entire episode, only to immediately be written off all over again in a couple of stills, and it's incredibly unsatisfying.
Is Max autistic?
>>122341634
Yeah, there is definitely tension there between both sides of the game. We always thought they were going hand-in-hand, and ideally they would have, but I think in this regard renderanon has a point with Episode 4. This is the Episode where the disparity of the two themes became very apparent for the first time. Prior it had been a tasty undertone which, while still very much capable of getting people invested in that side of the game, could have been dropped more or less casually at some point or even just stayed present unresolvedly without too much fuss.
I dunno, the "they ignored the storm for the characters in 3.8 episodes and ignored the characters for the storm in 1.2" thing would support that. Maybe dontnod initially wanted to go all 5 character but then felt compelled to put more emphasis on the plotty sci-fi and mystery stuff too?
I don't think really think so. It's possible they changed plans, but I think it's more likely they just failed to execute their initial concept properly.

>>122342789
of course
>>122342535
(Continuing)
To elaborate a little, Nathan being plonked in there as a pawn in Max and Chloe's plan IS a fitting end to his character, since a pawn is all he's been the entire game - his entire characterisation is that of a spineless pawn with a superficial illusion of power, contrasted against Max who has supernaturally enhanced willpower but is superficially meek.
Going for a tragic ending, Nathan shouldn't have had any more autonomy in this episode than he's ever had, and that's fine.
But he should have been factored in to Max's decision, and Chloe should have been able to get closure for what he did to her, and to Rachel. He's not a character to be given any decisions, but he's still an important player, and has an extreme impact on the plot and the main characters, and it's just ignored.

She had to wake and bake first.And by "wake" she meant "use her fingers".And by "and" she meant "on her vagina".And by "bake" she meant "while thinking about Max."

Nathan a shit
>>122364874
>>122364874
That video just reminds me of how Chloe pressuring Nathan might have been what drove Nathan into the deep end.
>>122364874
I'm afraid to watch it... I don't need any feels today.
>>122368204
Give in too your feelings, Anon.
Then report back and let us know if you tear up or nah.
I want to play it, but my console keep giving me "The game couldn't start, Try downloading the game again" error.
It's JTAG xbox360, is it because I need a system update?
How well does this play on core i5 with intel graphics??
>>122369394
The game is pretty light because of unreal engine, it should run pretty smooth on the i5. No idea about the xbox part.
So how it's /lisg/ today doing? Good evening to all. Here, a bit of Koethe to caress your souls a bit.

I actually continued working on this one, resculpting and so on
>>122371898
Sweet a Chloe one.
>>122371898
Do you have a dA or a blog? Anywhere I can follow your work really?
Also that looks great, I love your work.
If I may give you some criticism on the newer one I'd say the hair needs to be a bit more cyan instead of deep/purple blue. Oh and the film grain effect is a bit too intense on the face but it compliments the rest of the image rather well.
>>122360067
10/10 feels
>>122372429
I have only made one finished render so far. I don't think that justifies a blog, or something along the lines. Also the grain is not intentaional, these are render artifacts, which get less visible the longer it renders. I'll have a look at the hair color though.
>>122373253
Awesome in any case! Keep it up.
Eagerly awaiting your next piece :)

If I post Lisa getting wet would that be considered too lewd for this board?
>>122376578
WOAH!
Must have been one of those moments where "Evil" Max took over.
>>122376578
>>122376738
I want Nice/Evil Max and Chloe threesome ;_;
>>122377000
She would. Nothing stops Warren from going APEEEEEEEE.

Warren will be aping into eternity.

Man, someone fix the damn red
>>122377708
Oh, it's that "have I mentioned I'm gay today?" artist again. She really has an one-tracked mind doesn't she?
>>122377708
>>122377000
>>122377874
Who is she? I recognize the artstyle, but can't connect it to a name.
>>122377874
I'm not complaining if the art she dishes out is OK

Gaybreadlover. With a name like that it kinda explains it. She has a tumblr under the same name.

GET IN THE CARRRRRRR!!!
MAXIMUM VICTORY CUTEPOSTING TIME
Felicia's reaction was weird. She was basically still calling Chloe a pain in the ass up until the end and then for some reason still decided to save her and insisted it was the best choice. Didn't seem like she really picked up on the whole character development thing much at all.
>Captcha
>Cameras
That's a new one.
>>122380078
Is there a bigger picture of this?
>>122381257
A quick reverse image search answers that question. And the answer is yes.
>>122381475
Thank you
>>122380281
Sounds like she didn't let her personal preferences get in the way of the actual character development she saw and she chose what she thought canon Max would choose. 99% of bayfags sacrifice Chloe not for moral reasons but because they simply don't like her and want Max to end up with their own favorite.
Which is by far the most immature way to make this choice, showing zero empathy for Max and the character development she went through..
>>122381475
Everything else is awesome but their faces just look so wrong... I hate it when that happens!
>>122381524
No problem.
>>122381879
Me too. But it's still a cool image. I've noticed that a lot more people appear to be able to draw Chloe's face better than Max's.For Max it seems people either give her too man freckles, not enough, or don't make her head shape correctly (Or make her head massive in proportion to her body).
Then again, I can't draw for shit so my critiques probably don't mean much.
>>122377708
Can't do anything about Max looking like an anorexic teen model, though.
>>122382337
>Then again, I can't draw for shit so my critiques probably don't mean much.
You're wrong, anon. You don't have to know how to draw in order to see the mistakes.
Ha so that line IS in the game
Heh, that really could be the Pricefield lovechild.
>>122383591
Ye they showed it on the dev charity stream, neat easter egg

Imagining Max and Chloe as parents is funny.
Max trying to dress their daughter to be cute, Chloe going for a hardcore look.
Asking for something for Max to say no and for Chloe to say yes.
>>122381863
Maybe that's true with some people, but that's not really the impression I got with her. She didn't really seem to be picking up very much on either Max or Chloe's development.
I figured she would at least acknowledge how selfless Chloe was being at the end after criticizing her so much earlier in the game, but nothing really, not sure she even noticed it.
She just said she liked the idea of a movie with Max and Chloe on a road trip together and she didn't really care about saving anyone in the town. I don't think she was really all that invested in it, basically.

>>122383839
Was this early concept art for Chloe or who is this character supposed to be?
>>122384560
She's an old dense bitch. Half the people who stream and play this game are clueless as fuck, if you haven't noticed it. They don't play because they enjoy the game.
>>122384763
It's the Last of Us concept art
>>122384763
It's from the TLOU art book.
>>122384763
I think it's Ellie's concept art from TLOU artbook.
>>122379253
Huh you were right, every other post is gay affirmation.
Robot AU though? That's the stupidiest thing I've heard in context of LiS. Stupidiest, after the two endings we got, of course.
>>122369394
it ran fine on my hd4000
for some reason, ue games choose to run on my igpu; forcing them to run on the dedicated gpu locks it at 400 mhz, which is just as unpleasant. ergo, in order to play LiS, I had to first start GTA V, then LiS, verify that my dedicated gpu is running at its maximum clock, close V and finally actually play LiS with no issues. Life is... weird.
>>122384927
It's interesting they went for the softer, younger design. Makes it easier to endear Ellie to the player as Joel. If she'd been a bit older and tougher looking I think she would have ended up dividing people's opinions a bit like Chloe did.
>>122384556
I'm confused. How exactly would their kid talk to their parents?
Have a different name for each of them like Ma = Chloe, Mom = Max?
Probably not calling them by their first names, since even Chloe doesn't call her parents by their names.
>>122385856
Is calling your parents by their first name really so weird? I've met quite a few people who did that. Or called them by nicknames.
>>122385856
Mommy and momma.
>>122385979
That's just my experience. I've never called my parents by anything besides mom and dad. And both of them refer to their parents as the same.
I always thought it was a sign of disrespect or something to use their names.
>>122384793
I never really got why people choose to watch the game instead of playing it. Surely not for the terrible commentary?
>>122385979
I think people usually call their parents by their given name when they're older.
>>122385493
It's a shame Dontnod hardly made use of the whole time travel concept to let the player experience more of Max's and Chloe's childhood. They could have fleshed out young Chloe so much more than what they did, which would have made the final choice that much more heart-wrenching even for people who hated current day Chloe.
>>122386365
>Kate
>Friends with Chloe
Dropped.
>>122386221
A lot of people have finished the game by themselves and then watch streamers and youtubers play it to see their reactions.
>>122385979
I think it is. It seems kind of disrespectful, t b h. Even as adults, my parents call their parents as mom and dad. And I only refer to my parents as mom and dad.
With Chloe, I think it drives home the distance between her and her mom. It always seemed disrespectful, but it also served to emphasize her character development when she called Joyce her mother at the end. She does refer to Joyce as mom and mother (although in a sarcastic way) in eps 2 and 3 respectively, though. So she kind of alternated in her distance with her mom; I'm sure she wanted to be closer to her but couldn't figure out how - especially with her resentment towards her mom, which she acknowledges is unfair to her.
>>122386470
What's so bad about that?
>>122386470
Chloe actually knows Kate. Chloe even mentions that Kate's a good girl in game.
>>122386471
Yeah, but... why? Most streamers are idiots. Does anyone gain some sort of validation by seeing them react the same or what?
>>122386524
Eh. Differences in upbringing, maybe. I've always used nicknames to refer to my parents. "Mom" and "Dad" seemed kinda... bland.
>>122386593
...It's called entertainment. And some few youtubers/streamers are decent.
