    Not part of the #Life Is Strange franchise page because I can't edit it again :(
    guess the series started at Before the Storm.

    Really unsure what to rate this one. I liked it, and loved the music, but some of the writing, especially for the dialogue, needs a lot of work, and the voicework made it hard to take much of the drama seriously (except when just between Max and Chloe).
    Chloe best character.
    I kept trying to take the tension seriously, but Max's voice acting combined with the general lame writing would just make me... cringe. Chloe was like, the savior of any dramatic scene.

    The game's visuals look splendid once you disable chromatic aberration in one of the .ini files. Super picturesque, took many screenshots. The vanilla game really overuses that horrible effect though.

    I like how it played like something between a David Cage and Telltale game. It had more interactivity than I'd expect with a Telltale title though, where everything I do feels like it'll be nullified within a few minutes or so (god dammit Game of Thrones).

    Comments on the ending.
    SpoilerThe way I saw the ending, there was only one right choice.

    But that's what made the ending so fucking great. There's only one right choice, but then there's the selfish choice, the one I chose. It wasn't the best ending for the sake of great storytelling, and it wasn't done for anyone but yourself and Chloe. She's mine, fuck you, destiny.

    I don't dislike the game or anything, but this dialogue is some of the shittiest I've ever heard. The voice acting is incredibly sub-par as well.
    I'm expecting the game to go all "holy shit you didn't see this coming" on me and then I'll love it and my expectations will be shattered and my eyes will be blinded by the glory that's earned this game all the game on the internet and also I forgot how to punctuate sentences gee guys I'm sorry

    Got the first episode for free on X1 played 30min immediately knew it wasn't for me. I'm now 1 for 3 with Telltale style games, trying Tales From The Borderlands Ep. 1 next.

      Editing … 2 for 4 now, really enjoying Tales, bought the season pass. So I disliked Walking Dead, liked Wolf Among Us (wish I could add it to my ATF Games), disliked Life Is Strange, and now liked Tales. I hope Batman doesn't keep the pattern going.

    Jesus. The writing in this game is so embarrassing.
    Who the fuck talks like that??

    "I came to noseslide." - "Yo, sick. You're not a poser" - "There's Justin and his skater posse."

I also liked the various easter eggs (the shining, tomb raider, Final Fantasy spirits within, etc) and the humor.
