Finally just got caught up with this game. Cool game, huh? I gave up on the Frank scene after a few tries, partly because at some point there were multiple of the same conversation going on at once, so I had dialogue options even when another animation was happening. I must have travelled back in time and combined multiple universes or something. In my headcanon that's why there were two moons.

Sorry for the lateness, but did you all reload if Kate died? I didn't, because I felt the no rewind in that section sort of suggested I should have to deal with the consequences, on PC it said 35% of people couldn't save her.

I wonder if there'll be a sequel or "season 2" for this game. I think it stands well on its own and doesn't necessarily need one, but if they follow the Telltale route it's possible.

Okay, who predicted the twist. I am a dope and I didn't, so it made for a neat shock, I'm sure there are clues in the game that I glossed over, and thinking about it I can see his motives as Weird Hipster Art Man

I thought some of that scene was a little odd to be honest. Max says "The other girls were doing really mean poo poo towards you but I stopped it." and she says "thanks, you're a real friend" instead of "oh no, everyone did mean poo poo towards me" which is what I was expecting I'm paraphrasing.

I noticed how 2 of the license plates were "TWLGHTZN" and "TWNPKS" in ep4, i think they appeared in earlier episodes though, right? Couldn't figure out if the others meant anything.

exquisite tea posted:I didn't because that's kind of a messed up thing to spring on a friend you've just reconnected with after five years. Imagine if you were stuck in that timeline too -- what would you say to Joyce and William after you've just euthanized their daughter, because "it's totally what she wanted guys, no seriously trust me on this"? They know Chloe is sick but it's their collective decision to make, not yours. I eventually decided to accept her request, but had some difficulty with it. My two reasons were 1) in Walking Dead s1 I didn't make Clementine shoot Lee and felt bad about it and 2) I think I once argued for assisted suicide in school philosophy once. e: I didn't know what to expect so was a tiny bit surprised to see the majority of players chose the same option. sout fucked around with this message at 09:56 on Aug 1, 2015 |

I know graphics whining is dumb so i'll try not to. I really likes the way the game looks, but unfortunately it can sometimes look a little rough, most noticeably in hair. You could argue this contributes to more of a cartoon aesthetic, but I wonder if this game could benefit from some TressFX treatment or whatever.

Dumb question incoming: why are the characters 18/19 in this game? I thought in the US high school ended at the same age group as in the UK (17/18), unless this is a special case because of it being a boarding school or something? Maybe every major character got held back a year.

I'm very curious to see how much variety there can be in the endings. Goddamn I want more Life is Strange, I never played Remember Me but I'm excited to see what Dontnod does next (and hopefully, it's more of this)

Kurtofan posted:*time to finish up episode 4 in anticipat- Yep. I saw the GB Quick Look after ep 1 came out and thought "this actually looks really cool" but neglected to buy it until just after ep 4 came out. I'm enjoying anticipating ep5 but it was also nice to be able to run straight through the bulk of the game in a couple days.

Life is Strange probably benefits from being its own thing and not having to fit into another licensed universe like Telltale's games

So when the 20th rolls around we going back to spoiler tags? It seems silly that someone would read the last page of thread having not completed it but I guess people may not want the other (hopefully) endings to be spoiled? I'm curious to see whether Rachel features in the next episode too, and in what form, I suspect she has to, right?

Yeah, I did a second save where I did all the other options or in some cases was more consistent in my attitudes towards certain characters, but I'm going to go through ep 5 with my first save, at least initially.

Mixed feelings about the ending. I chose to sacrifice Chloe, like all choices in the game I regretted it basically immediately, but I guess I'm definitely going to go through in another save anyway. I feel really strongly about this game, and I feel like it did a lot of things I wanted, and some things I didn't expect ("I only want to go ape with you, Chloe" sequence). I suppose it's the point, but this ending is so frustrating, I sort of wish there was some permanence for your choices in this case. The good news is wouldn't feel this way if I didn't like the characters as much as I did, which is I suppose in itself a success. There's so much to think about, this was a dense episode.

Chaos Theory is magic. J-dogg totally dropped the "oval office" bomb, have they said that before? I mean it was a little surprising but given the game's content not really out of place

I think I was basically okay with the ending, but what does disappoint me is that I know so many people are bummed out about it and it might sour how people remember the game down the line. I thought the ep was a cool ride, would people be more pissed off if there literally wasn't a choice, or that there was a choice and one ending seems more fleshed out than the other?

Does Max rip up her classroom selfie? Life is Strange 2: Max changes her mind, goes back in time and saves Chloe, tells everyone to GTFO. The kill Chloe choice is a pretty big downer, besides having Chloe die, Max would then be stuck with the knowledge of everything that happened, knowing that she most likely would conceal all knowledge of it, and having to abstain from ever using her powers even when she knows she could use it in a useful way. I was almost expecting Rachel to eventually have a more literal appearance in the game, but I guess her absence adds to that brutality - nothing you can feasibly do could help her. You could argue that by making the final choice so polarizing that it reinforces this desperation but I dunno, feels like I'm being an apologist, because I really wanted this game to be brilliant and I do think that it is. I will say that the Chaos Theory thing is definitely weak, and I could sort of see it coming, why is that every time fate is involved in fiction the characters make a point about not believing in it?
