Thanks for the reminder! ☺

At some point I lost interest... then came back, finished it, and loved it.
I can't say it succeeds in everything it tries but wow! it's far harsher than I expected, very experimental at some point near the end, and deserves to be qualified as a stepping stone of some kind.
It was a wonderful play and it will always have a special place in my heart.

Played the first episode and was liking it until I heard the spoiler of how it ended. Still debating on if I want to get the rest of the episodes and complete it or not.
Comment has been collapsed.
Just my thought about the game: Loved every episode except the last.... somehow I expected the last episode more... epic? Dunno if thats the right word to describe, but I felt something was wrong there...
But for the rest: Episode 1-4 were pretty badass. And the story itself is awesome, too :D

Awesome game that I bought day one and played with each episode release. Loved the game and hope they expand on the idea somehow.

I got episode 1 in a Humble Bundle half a year ago, but I first started the game two or three months later because I didn't had really high expectations when I read in the description that the story was about a teenage girls relationship. But when I played that first episode, I was very positively surprised, so I bought the season pack on the next day. The other episodes were even better than the first one, so the following four days I finished one episode each evening. And I am glad I have played it without knowing anything about the story - I would highly recommend to avoid spoilers to all who still want to play the game!
In my opinion the voice acting and soundtrack are very good and I can say that the story is the best and definitely most emotional I have ever experienced in a computer game (probably not only in a game). It was actually the first game where I watched/listened to the whole credits after each episode without skipping ;-)
I think episode 1 is now free on steam and I can recommend it to all who likes story driven games and can cope with the fact that this type of game has not that much gameplay compared to other games.
I played most of the Telltale games too (Walking Dead Episode 1 + 2, The Wolf among us, Tales from the Borderlands, Game of Thrones) and I like them very much, but Life is Strange is my all time favorite. The gameplay of those games is quite similar to Life is Strange and they have good soundtracks too.
Here are my favorite tracks from the soundtrack of LiS and some of the Telltale games :D
Life is Strange OST - Something Good by Alt-J
Life is Strange Credits theme
Life is Strange Menu Music
Life is Strange OST - Crosses Instrumental
The Walking Dead Season 1 OST - Armed with Death
The Walking Dead Season 2 OST - In the Pines by Janel Drewis
The Walking Dead Season 2 OST - Clementine
Tales from the Borderlands OST - My Silver Lining by First Aid Kit
Tales from the Borderlands OST - Kiss the Sky by Shawn Lee's Ping Pong Orchestra

Some characters are a little bit stereotyped, but YES! This is art, and some scenes are so sad and has affects my minds...
good crazy story and excellent story about friendship.
Oh and the scene when Kate jumps from the rooftop, was a strange gut feeling. I never have hard feelings in films or games, but this!!! and other parts of the game, was a real feeling.
LiS is an gem and an instant classic for a looooooong time.
And THIS Soundtrack is gold!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was skeptical on the premise of the dialog alone... But once you get past the set up in the first episode it just throws you deep into the story and its brilliant! Its hella great ;)

Such venom. Tell me, is there anyone left in your life who cares for you, or have you driven them all away with your wonderful personality?
Might be a bit harsh, but you totally earned it with that horrendous comment. Sounded like a snobby mean girl high schooler who never grew up.
Comment has been collapsed.
Not liking someone's makeup is chauvinistic? Do you realize how incredibly sexist that is? You're saying women are such delicate little frail flowers that they can't handle someone not liking their face paint and must be protected from such opinions. That's a pretty horrible stereotype to perpetuate.
And my comment was actually about the wording of your insult. Talking about class, jumping to "you must be single" insults as if relevant... it's exactly what I'd expect of a snobby high schooler.

he's probably the kind of person that blames people defending themselves rather than the attacker.
omg why did you punch him back? that's so rude!

I'm so sorry I asked if he was single, now should I bend over for you and take more punishment, like the little snobby high schooler I am? I'll bring a dictionary so you can release everything you've kept inside you through your life. Because it seems like you're a bit tense.
See? This is exactly the language that prompted my initial reply to you. I'm glad I was right. And this time you were so determined to sound fancy and stuck-up while insulting me that you ended up saying nothing at all.

ya that's what you think idc if shes highschool girl or not u call people judgmental but infact u guys are the most judgmental people. u hate it if someone has another opinion and u get triggered why they have another kind of opinion.

nothing I just used a little bit of humor and said something about her picture that's it it triggered all the people raised by feminazi here lol keep calling me oh u are single hence u are probably a loser okey well fine I don't mind its their free speech m not trying to shut them up. but they are trying to shut me up and I am sure they will try hard to get me banned from here that's our world in 2016.

Based on his other comments, I'd wager he's saying you're an authoritarian liberal, forcing your supposedly morally superior opinions on everyone else.
Quite ironically, I am guilty of that, as I'm quite intolerant towards intolerant people (racists, sexists, homophobes, etc.)
Comment has been collapsed.
Funny that you don't even see the irony of your comments. You complain that they're acting triggered when anyone could argue that the one that sounds triggered here, is you.
It's also quite laughable that you think that the problem is about having different opinion. If the thread was about her asking what people thought about her make-up, then it would make sense to share your opinion on it, but even then there are ways of sharing your opinion without being an asshole, but the thread is not about that, it's about the ending of a game.
Comment has been collapsed.
may be for u but I am not triggered at all :D because I am not shutting down anyone. well why are u trying to making sense of my comment I can say whatever I want and I did what you gonna do ? nothing except commenting telling me oh u are a loser u are this u are that. hate speech doesn't count when u guys say it but when someone with different opinion says something it's automatically hate speech well good luck liberal world.

calm the fuck down dude lol all I am saying if u don't like don't read it but it is still your decision to read it or not. and it depends on ur sense really u tried to make sense of a joke as if it was an insult even if it was now what gonna hate me for that sure dude go ahead hate all u want that is actually good for ur health :D

Why do you assume that people are fuming just for replying to you? I'm actually finding your stupidity very funny, so there's no need for me to calm down as I'm already quite calm.
Maybe you should stop projecting how you're feeling, if you want people to actually believe that you're calm.

so it is all about feelings for you oh ya pretty snow flake :). and no I am not assuming that they are just fuming because I said something they don't like. and awww I know what kind of people think every other person with different opinion is stupid.

Well, at least it's nice that you've been able to convince yourself that the reason people think you're stupid is because you have a different opinion than they do, instead of because you keep saying a lot of stupid stuff.

aww could u come up with better argument I don't think so anything u don't like is stupid and that's the end of discussion well that's a very typical liberal behavior. and if I call it out I am judgmental well great.

You are the one being rude and whiny in this thread.
I saw you being unjustifiably ruse, so I replied rudely. We're both guilty of that. And neither of us is whiny.
Second of all, your obsession with high school girls is quite unhealthy.
You're doing it again. Throwing roundabout-ish insults that end up making no sense.
And last of all, I don't need a dictionary to tell you that I really don't like you.
You're the one who keeps bringing up dictionaries. Hey, maybe I should insinuate you have an unhealthy obsession with dictionaries! That would sound clever, right?
So please stop making a fool of yourself.
If I thought I was making a fool of myself, I wouldn't be replying. But to me you're the fool, and yet you seem to disagree and keep replying, so who knows? There's not much for me to do but assume I'm not misjudging the situation.
Comment has been collapsed.
He ended up being an asshole, but you didn't know that when you first replied to him, so I stand by everything I said. The original comment you replied to was quite inane, yet you went and assumed he was a chauvinist based on him not liking someone's makeup. And then insulted him quite snidely. It was uncalled for, so I figured I'd point that out in an equally rude way. And that's how we got here.
Comment has been collapsed.
I saw you being unjustifiably ruse, so I replied rudely.
If that was the only reason, then why didn't you reply rudely to Buckwild?
Comment has been collapsed.
See above. I don't see his original comment as rude. He wasn't commenting on her physical appearance or being intrusive. The OP applied makeup, took a photo of it, and posted it online for the world to see and comment on. That's little different from a painter making a painting and exhibiting it, both positive and negative responses are expected. I refuse to accept that, absent context, disliking someone's makeup is rude.
One Buckwild showed his true colours, I responded accordingly. I haven't replied to him after that because I'm getting a headache trying to decode what he's saying.
Comment has been collapsed.
I guess it depends on how you perceive it. Without the context of his later comments, I read it the same way as when someone comments that a profile pic is creeping them out or is disgusting or is silly or whatever, pretty much always off-topic. It's usually friendly and casual, so I saw the responses here as quite an overreaction to a harmless comment.
Comment has been collapsed.
I saw your other comment after, but I still don't see how this matters:
The OP applied makeup, took a photo of it, and posted it online for the world to see and comment on.
If we're going by that logic then someone just dressing and going to a public place means that they're doing it for people to comment on, yet I'm sure if you saw someone just approaching people to criticize them about the clothes they're wearing or their haircuts in public you would think that they're being rude, so I don't see how it's different if it happens in a public forum.
Comment has been collapsed.
3 things.
First, applying heavy makeup is the equivalent of dressing in an eye-catching costume of some sort, not dressing casually. But that's not as important.
Second, people have a choice on what to show the world when picking their profile picture. If going outside, you need to wear something, that's a given. But you could choose anything for your profile, and what you choose to share with the world is what people will assume you care about a lot and/or are proud of. It's a form of voluntary public display. And it's natural for such displays to warrant comments.
Third, physical world interactions are different from online interactions. If this happened on facebook, would you be making the same argument? It's not particularly uncommon for people to comment on each other's pictures on the internet. Nobody ever seems to mind positive comments from strangers, but it's unfair to demand that everyone keep the negative comments to themselves.
All that said, it's certainly possible to be rude when making such a comment, but without context, I can't read the comment that started all this as anything but playful, certainly not rude.
Comment has been collapsed.
The purpose of facebook and steamgifts is very different.
Comment has been collapsed.
True. And yet, I'd argue many of the forum regulars aren't here for the nominal purpose of Steamgifts, but for communicating with other people. Which is the purpose of Facebook.
If I had to find a caveat in my reasoning, it's that even in such communication-based environments, making a negative comment about a stranger might still be considered rude. Yet I didn't perceive the one here as such, and others did, which is what got us into this mess.

Or, y'know, he might have been drawn here by the tread title, seen your jarring profile pic, and decided to spend 20 seconds dropping a comment? It doesn't speak highly of you that someone not appreciating your makeup triggers such defensiveness and immature insults.

So hypothetical case, if you were sitting in a public place and a girl approached you and told you that you have a terrible haircut just out of the blue, would you think "well that just her opinion and it's her free speech to say that" or would you think "that bitch"?
It's just food for thought, as I doubt you would even answer it honestly.

They cant take a joke because there wasnt one obviously made. Tone is hard to detect in text, especially on a forum that has a global audience.

if someone is there for the social justice I would say that and pay attention I said like sjws there is a word "like" read carefully lol aww and who is making it a huge deal like if I did real wrong to her. and it was a joke facts don't change just because of ur feeling and the tone of it offended u bitch please. and what tone u are just reading it u can interpret it the way u want.

I mean idc if she wears this much make up or less than this or more than that I just wanted to say that so others would jump on and start hating me because that is exactly how our world has become and it is gonna get worse. seriously if she was he and a girl would have said something about his pic not so many would go and attack that girl in comments and now they talk about equality well that is just a dream.

first, it's a "fight against SJW's" (lol). then it's a joke. truth is, you're just being a dick. nothing else. a dick who's angry at the world, because he didn't grow quite as large as all the other dicks. and he saw all the other dicks getting vaginas. only he was alone, and no vagina wanted to play with him, because he was so tiny and wrinkly. but he was afraid to tell the vaginas what he was thinking. because he would most certainly get beat up by the other dicks. and probably also by the vaginas. so he did the only thing he could - he went on the internet where he was safe. where nobody could really hit him. so he tried to be the biggest dick the internet had seen! and he finally succeeded! he was the biggest of all dicks! and yet he was sad. because deep inside he still knew what a tiny dick he really was...

Well, the main character is as much of an alternative hipster chick as you can get without pulling in all of the negative stereotypes (She only shows a few of them).
And the soundtrack is mostly hipster stuff. Not really my thing but here it supports the mood of the game at least.

I would vote "Yes, I like it", definitely not "love".
Without a doubt LiS is a very good game but right after I finished it few days ago I felt that its full potential wasn't reached. I hope DONTNOD will fully unlock it in a sequel if they decide to make LiS 2. Before that, The Walking Dead S1 is still my top choice in this genre.
And yeah, LiS soundtrack is fantastic.

Missing option: "No and I don't want to, because I know how the story ends and I don't appreciate it at all."
Spoilers below.
I mean, really, what sort of ending is that? Spend the entire game building up a relationship with a character, then have to sacrifice that character for a stupid reason, rewind all the good things you've done, and never use your superpower again. It's like one of those lazy plots where it all happens in a character's mind, but way worse, since she actually experienced it and will remember it.
And the game has the audacity to pretend to give you a meaningful choice - be a bad person and sacrifice a town to save your buddy. But it's a fake choice, because said buddy is clearly living in the Final Destination universe and will need more rewinds soon. So either the main char will keep not using rewinds, letting the buddy die and making the sacrificing of the town meaningless, or she'll keep saving her, destroying more places. And just how many towns are they going to wipe out if they live for a few more decades? What if they ever move to a city?
So what I'm saying is, having had the ending spoiled, I don't see how I could enjoy the game, no matter how good it is before the end. Maybe if someone makes a fan ending that doesn't ruin everything.
Comment has been collapsed.
I bought that game right after it came out (something I usually never do) and it's some kind of love/hate relationship, The reason's pretty much what Vercinger said. In my own words below, using spoiler tags just in case:
I love the atmosphere and the story, always did, I love that it's emotional, beautiful and unique in so many ways, but the last episode and the ending kinda spoilt the whole game for me. Not because it's sad, I don't mind sad endings, but because it's so final and because it turns the whole game into something that wasn't advertised. My choices did not matter, only the last choice had any impact on the ending. When I started playing, I was really looking forward to the point when all the episodes had been released, so I could play it again, try different things, play with a different angle, see how choices that may look bad at the beginning may give the whole story a totally different twist. After all, choices, matter, right? Now that played it through, I know they don't ... there's no incentive to try different things. It's a one way trip ... a very interesting one at that, but it could've been so much more.
Comment has been collapsed.
All I have to say is WOW, I love every part of the game every chapter made me want more of it , my feelings were just out of control and the music , the scenaries were a perfect combination for the story , If you haven't play it you should ! And yeah I'm crying ...
