    Just finished Life is Strange and Life is Strange Before the Storm.

    Both are great games with a really good soundtrack but I personally preferred the story of the first title.

      I’ve tried the original Life Is Strange twice, and both times I >!failed to save Kate!< because I don’t have an infallible memory and quit out of anger.

      Edit: fixed the name

        Do you mean Kate, the girl who is trying to commit suicide by jumping? As fas as I know, there is no path where Max dies.

        Reddit style spoilers don’t appear to work on Lemmy. Instead use:

        ::: spoiler description
        Spoiler goes here
        :::
        

        Which will look like this:

        description

        Spoiler goes here

        Admittedly, it’s not ideal for inline spoilers, but if you really want to hide for the benefit of others, that’s they way you’re supposed to do it on Lemmy, I guess.

            Looks like sync doesn’t implement lemmy spoilers correctly, and still uses reddit spoilers. But the lemmy web-ui doesn’t honour those spoilers and does them the way I showed in my comment. That’s unfortunate, because people using Sync won’t be able to effectively hide spoilers, and will potentially be spoiled on things when Lemmy users use spoilers the way the web-ui tells them to in the editor.

      I liked the writing and pacing of BtS better, but the game is massively dragged down by being a prequel. There’s going to be a point where you start wondering what’s the point of any choice since you know everything that’s going to happen anyway.

      To me the “plain” teen drama worked much better without (or at least mostly without) supernatural interference, which is why I never really thought of trying LiS 2 or True Colors.
