If you pull the gun on Frank in the scrapyard, he'll call your bluff and confiscate it.

Wrong, Max always pulls the gun, if you try to shoot him he doesn't take it, if you don't then he takes it

This is actually wrong. He takes it no matter what, unless that got changed in a patch.

That's weird as hell. I know for sure I did both options and lost the gun both times. :psyduck:

EDIT: I must have rewinded it after shooting him the second time to get the first outcome.

Carly shook her glass, willing the ice to melt. "You still haven't told me what the mission is."

She leaned forward. "We are going to assassinate the bad men of Hollywood."


A tense moment as Max can't remember if she flushed the toilet in the girl's bathroom this morning or rewound to let it mellow because, gently caress it, maybe that will somehow save the world this time.

According to Square Enix the game has apparently passed 1 million units in sales.

That's pretty insane considering the budget of the game was likely minuscule and it had a non existence advertisement budget.

I hope they make a sequel, one of the devs said if that would ever happen, LiS Season 2 would be a thematic sequel with an entirely new cast and setting for the next series.

Yeah, why? I can easily understand not wanting a direct sequel and wanting LiS Season 1 to be an entirely standalone game, but if they make a thematic sequel like some TV shows do that would be rad.

Like what would they even do for a sequel? More time traveling twee hipster crap with a new heroine? Do they have a new girl figure out she can control time? Why box yourself in by making yourself make something similar to LiS when they can just make a new game.

Maybe the devs like the universe they created and feel it's worth exploring further? That doesn't mean they can't shake things up and offer a significantly different experience while maintaining the style and mechanics that made LiS a success.

So regarding the trailer, it was pointed out to me that (spoilers since it's not immediately obvious) in the scenes that flash by quick with Warren and Nathan, Warren is wearing two different shirts in the same scene, and Max is transparent in one. Could she have gained the ability to shift between the two realities? Her doing stuff like that would also explain the two moons.

Remember Me wasn't really their fault - It got shafted six ways to sunday for years with mismanagement from the producers. Whatever version they originally had planned would probably have been fantastic, instead of just cobbling together whatever was finished and shoving it out the door to die in the cold.

Ok, I'm all prepared, one save with my normal choices, and the other save with my Good Person choices and use of reverse time power.

Of course, looks like the best course of action with regards to Victoria/Nathan is not telling anyone about nathan and blaming david. If you blame jefferson she flips out.

With episode 4 only 3 days away, what did everyone pick for their choices?

Big bar of black coming up.

you weren't friendly with taylor
you rejected warren's invitation
you wrote a message

you didn't help warren
you didn't tell on david to mr jefferson


episode 3:
you stole the money
you kissed chloe
you sided with clohe
you got frank's dog hurt
frank has david's gun

lisa is dead

I love forest of rain.Foevar...
A few pages back some folks were dissecting whether it was realistic for Max to just fall into radio silence when she moved away, and pick back up like it was nothing years later... And yeah, it really is. When my sister and I were 4 and 6 we were inseparable with some neighborhood girls 4 and 5, like didn't even bother to ask to go to each others houses overnight, our parents just assumed that's where we were. At 9 and 11 our family swapped hemispheres and we didn't even try to keep in touch because, 12 hr time difference, spotty snail mail, and before kids usually had personal email? Yeah right.

Five years later we were back in the States, our friends' dad had rolled into a ditch and died of a heart attack... When we did get back together, every couple of years, we just picked up where we left off and pushed through any moments of awkwardness.

So it's pretty true to my life experience at least. True friends might give you crap about not staying in touch but in the end you're still who you've always been, and they get that.

I didn't even know you could tamper with the railtracks until the list of choices showed up at the end of the episode. Do we know the consequence of that yet or is it still coming, like Warren's stupid movie night ?

I'd have to go back to make sure but I don't think anyone was wondering that, at least the second part; picking things back up after an awkward phase seems natural, yeah. The conversation began with "Max was an rear end in a top hat" and it went from there. She absolutely was.

We're spoiling everything, I guess in case new folks show up. Pretty annoying and I think it should only really be necessary for a week or so after a new episode is released, not all the time; this game isn't that popular.

Tampering with the rails makes it so lumber can't be delivered anymore according to Chloe right after you save her, as for the Warren movie night I don't think it can really have an effect other than having it be brought up in dialogue, since the actual event is way after friday
