It's going to be weird playing this considering how it ended for me (with Chloe pretty dead).
Not to mention I don't find Chloe's character to be that likable...

I am excited for the prequel, actually interest in learning about the backstory between Chloe and Rachel. Was not expecting an August date for Ep. 1 either.

Eh. I was hoping for all new everything. Not a prequel. Dontnod is working on a sequel proper, and I think it'll be an all-new story + characters. I'm guardedly interested in this prequel. I love Chloe and chose her, but I'm wary of how totally unnecessary this thing feels. I'll probably wait for fan reaction before buying the first episode.

Not too excited about prequel stuff but suppose I can appreciate that this is made by Decknine and can tidy me over until Dotnod start talking about the season of LiS they are working on that should hopefully do something really interesting. Will just let Chloe carry the prequel stuff as best as she can and hope it will turn out just great

Is it weird that Life is Strange is the first game that ive played which I feel is actually FOR me??? Like... most of the other games I play there are times where I think "hm, I dont think im the target audience for this" (although rpgs tend to be the exception because choices... but it can still stand at times even with something like mass effect), or that Im interested in playing them because im interested in the thing (like Star Wars) and im not actually in the target audience of the game It doesnt affect how fun I find games, but when I play Life is Strange I get the impression that maybe I was in the target audience for it, its a happy feeling

As far as the prequel goes I dunno if I can play it since we already know what the ultimate outcome is for Rachel. Don't think I'll be able to handle the feels! :sob:

Not keen on the prequel since players know what happened after. I can't even fathom why they want to do a prequel since LiS II is not connected to the first.

Supposedly the supernatural will be making an appearance, just in subtler ways than Max's time travel.

That's nice but for me, I'm not interested in playing three eps to build that relationship, knowing what's going to happen. If they're connected to the sequel via supernatural ways, that's fine too; I just don't see the point of playing the prequel when players already get to know about them in the first game.

Is there any word on whether it will end where the actual relationship between Chloe and Rachel ended (namely with Rachel disappearing)? Or will it just be an episode in their lives before that?
I'd actually leave the supernatural out if it were up to me. The implication in LiS is that it's all tied to Max's powers and the effects of her rewinds. Unless there's going to be a wider "lore" about the supernatural and how it works in this particular fictional universe?

There have been theories of a wider 'magical' lore, one that Max is but a part of, for a while now, so not new. Sure series can focus on the relationships though.

If it was me, id have a different story arc altogether just to have something kinda sad/creepy happen riiiggghhhtttt at the end, like maybe the last 20 seconds of the whole game would take place in the dark room or something
Id like to have a few hints of the supernatural here and there, even if its just something like a spirit animal showing up... or some small hint about what could have given Max her powers even if its no direct confirmation
But im not convinced the storm and everything was because of Max, just fyi I dont think the supernatural was all down to her.

So I had the game just sitting shelved for a long long long time, started it up two days ago and already beat it. The feels man the feels 😭😭😭 Hard not to pick Chloe if you ask me cause the game is entirely based off the principle of friendship with her plus she grows up towards the end where it makes it even harder. If the prequel can be just as good on the feels, I think LiS overtakes telltales walking dead.

*~~*~~*~~*~~ *~~*~~*~~*~~ Who else loves this game?!!! I played it because @scarlett and Furisco and Monk told me to, and I couldn't put it down! It was fantastic. I hear they're making a Life Is Strange 2!!! I'd love to hear everyone's different choices in their gameplay. A feminist friend of mine on the old official IDW Publishing message board recommend that I try Life is Strange after I complained that I couldn't find any games other than the current Tomb Raider, BioWare, and Bethesda games with strong female protagonists and she told that season 1 was complete and I could try episode 1 for free on Xbox 360 (even though she was a PS3 girl) and I did and the next thing I knew I was playing a truly fantastic game with great characters with equally great voice actors, an interesting world, a compelling story dealing many topics, a cool soundtrack, and a game that actually made me tear up a bit at certain times. I love how it played with choice and consequences in such a different way than any of the BioWare and Bethesda games I was used too, also for a "walking simulator" it is very hard to put down the characters are extremely complex even secondary and background NPCs have more complexity than most other games and the game world "feels" as real it could. There is so much to find and you want to explore in this world, because the detail is so insane. This is also a game that isn't ashamed of it's time travel sci-fi roots and puts plenty of references to various novels, movies, and TV shows that use time travel some are quite funny, like in the alternate reality where Chloe is paralyzed if you check on her PC you'll see a thread where she talks about Quantum Leap and Scott Bakula! The trailer to it's prequel, Life is Strange: Before the Storm blew me away and makes Anthem trailers look pale in comparison. When a 3 part modest budget game makes an AAA title look pale that is a game to look out for.

Perhaps there will be something strange about it. Because of 2 vastly different endings and that can't be connected in a way that doesn't canonize one of them, sound familiar?
