Wonderfully immersive and unbearably sad...
This game gets you...it's more like watching an animated movie and you control the outcome by your actions...in fact that's it exactly!
It draws you in from the start and gets unbearably desperate and upsetting.
It's brilliant!!
Stunning game, very, very, very, very sad...
I played this solidly for 5 days and got very emotionally involved.
The pace, the story telling and the choices all add up to make a stunning game...the sad songs have you humming along as you journey to Mexico.
You really root for the characters.
Loved it and wish it had carried on for a lot longer.
This is truly an emotional masterpiece,odyssey of feelings and pure art.
The blend of storytelling,character development,locations and of course that soundtrack that tunes in at the perfect moment will undoubtedly make you realise that you have a soul, that you care.

7.2?!? I normally don't give games a perfect 10, cause there's always something to take away from a game. In this case though, LiS2 deserves a far better spot than 7.2.
It is easily the better title with a greater focus on character development between the protagonist and his brother. Not to mention, it serves as a good roadtrip movie which for me, is a far more interesting environment than the school.
Naturally the first one was a murder mystery. Here, it's more about hard choices while trying to hold onto your morality.
I feel the low ratings come from those who not only wanted a similar game to LiS1 but those who were also trapped in its nostalgia.

I do agree that there was a little bit of a political agenda and that in places it's a little bit too obvious or exaggerated - but this game was absolutely magnificent. It's been a while since I've felt such emotion and connection to fictional characters and I seriously put that next to Red Dead 2 in terms of heart-strings.
I loved the other Life is Strange games, but I think this one will resonate with me for a while. Damn!
