Whenever a beloved series ends, I feel empty inside. A hole in my heart that I can never fill. Goodbye, Life is Strange. Thank you for such a wonderful experience
crazy to think this game is going to be 10 years old. i still remember the joy and wonder i had playing it for the first time. even after a decade i still nerd out to it every so often. glad i found this game
Spanish Sahara was sadder in my opinion. The words in the song added a strong effect, then it hits you that Chloe is dead (her death would've come anyways if you sacrificed Arcadia Bay) and then you see Arcadia Bay Cemetery and then (if you aren't already crying) you start to cry... It's such an emotional scene if you sacrifice Chloe...
no, it doesn't get destroyed; after Max travels trough photos, she returns to the actual present; so in the ending, if she sacrifices Chloe, she returns to a present that doesn't have a tornado, and the town doesn't get destroyed... I guess :)
as a 38 year old man, i only discovered this game a couple of months ago. it has to be one of THEE best games i have ever played...at the end i was lying on my bed with one hell of an emotional gut punch crying like there was no tomorrow. what a game and what an experience gotta save bae over bay though
@@xmidnightx2520 all I know is in life is strange 2 if you chose to save bae then you'll find out that they're living in new York and max is looking for a gallery to enter her art into. And sure you could save bay but you'd be letting bae down once again. But that's just me u do u :3
@@AnniTheBanshee the second game wasn’t about them tho it was the first game. I see your point but I rather save the town as she wanted, to keep her family alive and the friends we made throughout the game
This game is going to stay with me for a very long time. If you're lonely this game will really speak to you. If you have a lot of friends or even one friend you trust more than anyone this game will damage you.
Having a close friend that is really important to you and then having to give them up... this game gives me sort of relief. It understands how that feels.
@@lennartsenden1220 Oddly enough, this is the kind of game that after makes you feel like you should always make sure to tell your family and friends you love them, even that tiny bit more.
It destroyed me when i saw chloe in a wheelchair. The best theme in the game. Everyone wishes some things in their life went differently. Its best to accept everything in your life for the exact way it happened
@@dominickstewart433 Its a cruel prank Max's world plays on you. The answer the whole time was the bathroom encounter; if you look at it from a technical standpoint, the rewind power being given to you then is meaningless, as Chloe needs to die for Rachel and the other victims to get their vengeance. Either that, or you kill everyone off to save one person, even though the universe itself is telling you she needs to die
The universe didn't give powers to Max so Chloe would die and nothing would change in the end. Besides, if Chloe dies and "nothing happened", that means Jefferson would never have paid for his crimes. You may think it is unreasonable for the universe to chose to save one person instead of a whole city, but the universe works in mysterious and unpredictable ways. Hence why, it gave powers to Max. The Sacrifice Chloe ending literally makes Max's powers and the entire game meaningless.
@@AmapianoOasis interesting point, but the meaning of her powers are that Max can have a little more time with her lost friend. And instead of being selfish, Chloe can one time in her life be a hero and give the ultimate sacrifice for a town she hated so much
I seriously love the fact that this song is called "Max and Chloe". This song (in my opinion) really fits them (along with Lua and Santa Monica Dream). So sweet :)
@@heylo600 Sorry if I am being nitpicky, but the scene actually happens in Episode 1, after the segment where you finish talking with Brody in the car. Episode 2 is mostly focused on Beaver Creek and surrounding areas.
I can never listen to this song without sobbing. This game was soo amazing and so impactful. I only finished it around a week ago and yet I feel like Max and Chloe will be in my mind for the rest of my life. What a true piece of art. Thank you DontNod.
I played the game very shortly after my best friend passed away, and the game resonated with me so deeply. Whenever I think about her I play this song and remember that she’s my Chloe, even if she’s not here with me anymore.
Ashley M really sorry to hear that. You have my sympathy and I sincerely hope that you feel better now. And if you don’t just know that you can get through it no matter how hard it may seem. Even if it feels like a mountain you’ll get to the top soon
Sansationnel ! The Butterfly Effect. What if this game never existed? Where would we all be today? I love Life is Strange, and it will continue to be my most favorite game throughout my whole life.
Life is Strange and The Last Of Us are two amazing games with great guitar tracks. I don't usually listen to guitar tracks, but when I do it's from these two games. Beautifully written soundtracks!
@@icaro9382 That look from Chloe as she looks out at the storm when Max's holding and hugs her because she has to look away really gets me too, because you can see her not just trying to weigh her life against everyone's, but realizing just how much Max really cares for her.
@@SpanishFly120 When you sacrifice chloe, if you went romantic route with her, Max leans into a kiss with her. When david was describing chloe and how she died in LiS2 I DIED. *Sad noise*
I just hope virtual reality improves just enough so I can transport myself into this game and give Chloe a tremendous hug, even if she finds it hella awkward, I won't care.
Max and Chloe's friendship is one of the most moving and powerful friendships I've encountered in any literary form. It's pop art, sure, but it's real, and art.
My brother passed away last week and now when I hear this song, although I've heard it a milion times over: makes me think of all the times we spent growing up together. Even as adults going through life we confided in each other, I can't believe you're gone but now you venture into the great unknown. Now I just can't wait until I see you again, and we can share what we both discovered and revel in the view.
Hearing this song after every episode and me going like "WTF JUST HAPPENED!!" every time. I always like listening to this and not skip while I think about what's gonna happen next :)
I listened to this and just remembered what the game was about, how it moved me and how the characters grew with every decision I made and every decision I went back on and fixed, I just listened and stopped for a moment and contemplated life and how we should live in the moment not in the past, we should move forward... WHOA THIS SONG DID SOMETHING TO ME THAT I CANT REALLY EXPLAIN
Robert99uk Anything we do affects our future like how I’m commenting on this right now. What will happen in the future? Only decisions affects the outcome, and that’s what makes this game special and the best game of all. I love it so much.
This hits hard, especially if you were playing this around the time episodes were being released. I was in 6th grade.. i rlly cant believe its been 8 years..
Same, I remember running home from school to play each new episode with my sister. As tempted as I am to replay it it’d be hard to recapture what playing it for the first time as a young teenager felt like now that I’m an adult
No, unfortunately I have to sacrifice Chloe just to save other characters in the game. Although it was heart wrenching moment, but in my opinion I have to sacrifice her. 😔 Much love 💖
Once in a while I stumble upon something: a book, a movie, a tv series, a cartoon or a video game, and I finish it, and then it stays with me for the rest of my life. This game is one of those pieces of art that are gonna stay with me for the rest of my life. Maybe it isn't an actual critically aclaimed piece of art but it doesn't matter, if I'm still thinking about it 3 months after finishing it, it did something right.
this song is like, you sit there crying your eyes out, trying to understand how this game managed to tear you apart so much and feeling so empty inside
Blueschy After the "If William didn't die" scene and the nightmare and the "Sacrifice Chloe or Arcadia Bay" ending...the song in the credits fucked me up (aka this song) I just love it so much 💙💙
Not a single game has impacted me in the way this game did. I can't explain it...it just really changed the way I am. The emotions the game has put me through (and still kinda does lol) is crazy. Thankyou DontNod for making this beautiful game and experience. Can't wait for the prequel to come out in a week :)
I knooow right, like ya the morally correct thing to do is save Arcadia cuz that's like hundreds of lives vs one person so it would be kinda selfish, but after all the shit Max went through, literally saving Chloe's life time and time again, even letting William die, and then becoming so attached to her, you couldn't just let Chloe die after all that shit. "You're my number one priority"
I let all of Arcadia go too fuck that, I didn't watch Max suffer for a whole game so the one person she cares most for would die lol. It was selfish, but Max and Chloe was my priority. I wasn't letting her go
I always loved to keep the credits rolling everytime I finished an episode and not skip it and just listen to this right here, it helped me to reflect on everything that has happened so far and to generally contemplate shit to LiS.
I had to come here as soon as I heard it playing quietly while David was talking about them in lis2 ep 5 Weird how music can bring back memories and emotions just as strong as when you felt them first
The last choice regarding what to sacrifice, no matter how much I didn't want to do it. I chose to save Arcadia Bay. I wanted Chloe to live, but as the player, but we and Max knew that it was the morally right decision. This game gave me the understanding of what true art is, it's such a beautiful experience that I will never forget.
This game is a life changer, it makes you see the world in a different perspective. Even though I haven't played the game myself (I really want to in the near future) I only watched Jacksepticeye play it but I still got the experience. I absolutely loved everything about this game, from the art style to the actually story line. Well done, creators... Well done..
Chloe never saw Max again. If Max chose to save the town then after they split up when they were kids Chloe doesn’t remember the times they had after they grew up. Only Max remembers and it technically didn’t happen after she turned back time. Sad. So sad.
This game made me rethink my whole existence.😐 I don't even know what life is now.😕😂 *Update* (10/18/2023) It's been 6 years. I still listen to the Life is Strange soundtrack all the time while studying, writing, and working. But, I especially like listening to this song when I feel lost or need to feel "grounded." This song reminds me of what life once was and what it means to me now. It reminds me of how far I've come even though I sometimes feel like not much in my life has changed and I don't feel like I've changed as a person much either. This song says to me, "Don't worry dude. Everything is going to be okay." This song and this game have taught me not to worry so much about the past and not to be so anxious about the future that I miss the beauties of life in front of me here and now. Don't try to grow up too fast. Don't overwork yourself. Slow down. Take chances. Make the scary decisions. Be kind and show love to people. Exercise. Eat healthy food. And don't forget to have fun. As cool as it would be to have rewind powers like Max, we don't, so we have to take advantage of the time we have and we have to use our best judgement when making life-altering decisions. I used to feel like my life didn't matter, like my minor mistakes and blemishes made me an inherently bad person. I don't feel that way anymore. I love living and learning. I love improving myself in all areas necessary. I find it funny how something as simple as a video game plot can change a person in real life. There was a time when I didn't really understand what life was. Now I know exactly what it is. Life is good. Life is....weird. ❤
This left a giant hole in my heart, I was extremely depressed after finishing the game for the first time. What a good game honestly, nothing else has ever made me feel like that...
Played this game for the first time 3 weeks ago. I was only 10 when it came out back in 2015 and I’m 19 now but it gives me a very nostalgic feeling of my pre teen years and high school. This song gives me a feeling that I can’t really explain and makes me tear up. One of the best games I’ve ever played.
You know you loved a series when you devote your time drawing Max and Chloe while listening to this song on repeat such a great experience and I could never see this not being one of my favorites of all time
Agreed. They are inseperable. Game proved us enough that no matter what Max loves Chloe. I can't get why some pals are comparing Warren with Chloe in every chance they get. He is already out of the match. Also didn't Max say "CHLOE" is her number one priority and questioned if she has romantic feelings for her at the end of diary? Yes she did.
It is peculiar, that I couldn't shed a tear during my beloved grandfathers funeral, but at the end of this game, I cried a river. I guess, that Life is Strange.
Idk how it happened but when I was 16 I came across this game and it just changed my perspective on a lot of things, I was a reckless kid and didn’t know how to behave until this game gave me literal general knowledge. And I listen to this them in nostalgia of my teen years (I’m 20 now) and it brings me joy to know how much good memories this one game gave me and how at the time it also reminds me of all the other games I played at the time and all the good times I had with my friends. Shit hits hard fr and I hope it did the same for others!
I was at a real dark place when this game came out. I'd sit in my room playing this song on the menu in repeat. It helped keep me alive. This game and song still has a place in my heart. I have a wife and kid now.
this game has changed my life in a way i never thought it could, i first played the demo in 2015 on my ps3 when i was like 10 and was so hyped playing it, 2 years later when i already got my ps4 the game goes free on PSN, i remember playing most of the time on my bed at night when everyone was asleep, only me awake playing this game, i wish i could tell myself to not do that, cuz i got so involved in the game and characters that i spent a entire week depressed, not just sad but literally depressed, i didn't wanted to go out cuz everything i would think is that the game was over, and max and chloe would stay in there forever and all the characters like rachel, david, kate, Victoria, warren would just stay there and there wasn't nothing i could do about it. that's definitely my favorite game forever, best soundtrack, best characters and best animation design
i played this game in augest 2017 because my sister bought it because she was bored I had no idea what I was getting into, I ended up beating it before her. it didn't hit right away I just realised that after finishing the game that I still wanted to stay at Arcadia bay. but the thing that hurt the most was seeing chloe die after what we been through it took me a bit to register and then I just started being sad like I lost someone that was dear to me. my sister finished the game and she thought it was ok, its bizarre I've spent an entire summer vacation (3 months) being depressed about a character in a game and a fictional town to the point that I started ignoring hanging out with my friends and making excuses to why I cant come. knowing I'm not the only one dealing with these emotions helped a lot. eventually after a while I stoped feeling bad, every time that I was thinking about this game it was sad memories but after a while it became happy nostalgic memories, I'm very grateful for this game making me feel a lot of emotions when I barely felt any significant ones in a while and now I just listen to the music because its calming, beautiful and nostalgic.
I haven't played Life is Strange or Before the Storm since 2017, nor have I played LIS2/True Colours, but damn, as soon as I heard this, instant nostalgia, the days of everyone just theorising what was gonna be happening to Max and Chloe, what happened to Rachel, the Vortex Club etc. Those days were brilliant. I remember being so hyped up when I was in college and a new episode teaser would drop. God how time flies, can't believe it's been over 7 years since it released.
Yep 2017 was also the last time for me to play and finish LIS1,BTS Episode1-2, after that kinda forgot about this game, I went to new school making friends and studying, honestly it is the best when you go to new school and played LIS a day before that I felt very adventurous being 16 and played LIS1, used to love doing dangerous stuff and smoking and acting like Chloe lol
Roughly 4 years since I beat the game (you can find comments from me scattered around when I beat it freshly) and I feel almost as sad as I did when I first finished the story even though I haven't played or watched it in a very long time. The feeling of melancholy and the bittersweetness of both endings is very well-written, even if the lack of choices turned some people off. The music perfectly fits the themes of coming of age, going on a journey, learning from experiences and sorrow - which are all important parts of life and perhaps a bit more dramatic for Max than the rest. Such a heart touching game and amazing music to accompany it. The episode Farewell from Behind The Storm, to me, is the perfect send-off of their story because it shows you how alone and broken Chloe was as Max moved away. And gave us a glimpse at how innocent their bond was, too. And seeing the butterfly carved on the fireplace without explanation was a nice homage to their future.

After years I come back here to feel all that nostalgia again, this game changed my life and will always be in my heart
When i heard this in Life is Strange 2 i started crying, without spoiling too much, the scene was PERFECT and Nostalgic.
This is in LIS2?? NO WAYY I CANT WAIT TO PLAY IT 😭
nigga the game is like 5 years old you gotta be under a Dwyane Johnson to not have heard of this game
Yeahh it was when Brody and Sean saw arcadia in episode 1
it was on the episode 5 :(
@@wyborn8587 Yeah, that hit me hard too. Even if it was the good feels, too.
6 years later I still can't stop thinking about this game and what happened after the storm
I strongly suggest you to read the comics if you chose bae over bay, they're great and it will leave LiS with a closed ending :)
@@LeoCookiexD this was 3 years ago. I read the comic and wish we got an after the storm game
Once in a while I stumble upon something: a book, a movie, a tv series, a cartoon or a video game, and I finish it, and then it stays with me for the rest of my life.
This game is one of those pieces of art that are gonna stay with me for the rest of my life. Maybe it isn't an actual critically aclaimed piece of art but it doesn't matter, if I'm still thinking about it 3 months after finishing it, it did something right.
this song is like, you sit there crying your eyes out, trying to understand how this game managed to tear you apart so much and feeling so empty inside
They should've put this at the end of Farewell. I probably would've died of heartache
"Black flies" killed me anyway...
Latley this soundtrack has me thinking of my father.. I lost my father in 2022 & something about this track makes me think of him..
"After 5 years your still Max Caulfield" well it's been 5 years and I still can't stop crying over this game
Idk whenever I listen to this , it always makes me wanna cry so hard like i m missing part of my life too
Farewell just came out today.... I'm not ready to say goodbye....
"My powers may not last, Chloe" "that's ok. we will. forever."
😧
This comment kills me.
My eyes went wet just by reading your comment
It’s hard to believe this game is going on 9 years old. I still come back to listen to its ost any time I want to calm down and relax.
best music in the game
+Mona Bys that's a nice way to put it
yup
Blueschy After the "If William didn't die" scene and the nightmare and the "Sacrifice Chloe or Arcadia Bay" ending...the song in the credits fucked me up (aka this song) I just love it so much 💙💙
Not a single game has impacted me in the way this game did. I can't explain it...it just really changed the way I am. The emotions the game has put me through (and still kinda does lol) is crazy. Thankyou DontNod for making this beautiful game and experience. Can't wait for the prequel to come out in a week :)
I'm just going to admit this. I couldn't let chloe die. I seen her die already like three times and I didn't want to see a fourth. Screw Arcadia Bay.
I knooow right, like ya the morally correct thing to do is save Arcadia cuz that's like hundreds of lives vs one person so it would be kinda selfish, but after all the shit Max went through, literally saving Chloe's life time and time again, even letting William die, and then becoming so attached to her, you couldn't just let Chloe die after all that shit. "You're my number one priority"
Idkkkk.. I get that but for me it was more of like a "stop preventing what's supposed to happen" type thing 🤔
In the words of Chloe Elizabeth Price, "Fuck all of that."
+Cosmo-Girl lol
I let all of Arcadia go too fuck that, I didn't watch Max suffer for a whole game so the one person she cares most for would die lol. It was selfish, but Max and Chloe was my priority. I wasn't letting her go
"Home, shit Home..."

2013???
I always loved to keep the credits rolling everytime I finished an episode and not skip it and just listen to this right here, it helped me to reflect on everything that has happened so far and to generally contemplate shit to LiS.
How I wish I could erase it from my head so I could live all this experience again!
Yeah, Buddy! me too T.T
There is something so relaxing and calming in this song I..I-I can't describe it...hella beautiful
;)
NO EMOJI
shannon bailey wouser!
DIllJeN TuP Why tf do people say "hella" whenever they can, idk I kind of cringe at it. Maybe Im just being a douche.
man its been 6 years and i cant forget max and chloe yet
What an experience this game was.
2022 replaying the game. Fell in love like the first time. I'm so lucky I got to play this game
2023
no matter where i am in life.... this song brings me such immaculate peace.... thank you
I had to come here as soon as I heard it playing quietly while David was talking about them in lis2 ep 5
Weird how music can bring back memories and emotions just as strong as when you felt them first
This track is a pure masterpiece
this game will always hold a very special place in my heart.
It legit changed me as a person, I plan on getting a small little tattoo about it, just as a reminder
I don't know why i came here again. I only find tears.
This game has a special place in my heart. I’ll never forget it
1:47 what I set as my alarm clock, I try to wake up every day being mindful of my choices and how I can help the world in some way
It’s almost been 3 years and i still cry like a baby
After 7 years still here listening to this.
Listening to this late at night after drowning yourself in pricefield fanart (and fics) is not good for your health.
IKR listening to this brings back memories of the first few episodes so sad😪😪😪😢😢😢😭
we got a live one folks
The last choice regarding what to sacrifice, no matter how much I didn't want to do it. I chose to save Arcadia Bay. I wanted Chloe to live, but as the player, but we and Max knew that it was the morally right decision.
This game gave me the understanding of what true art is, it's such a beautiful experience that I will never forget.
Anyone still listening in 2024?
Of course
always will
yeaaaaaa
For sure
yes ma'am what's up
2024 and I can't forget this unbelievable masterpiece, HOLY SHIT
Double Exposure? 2024? Dude, wake up. It's 2015! Episode 5 is still coming out!
When you hear this playing while David talks in Life is Strange 2... Undescribeable goosebumps man.
This game is a life changer, it makes you see the world in a different perspective. Even though I haven't played the game myself (I really want to in the near future) I only watched Jacksepticeye play it but I still got the experience. I absolutely loved everything about this game, from the art style to the actually story line. Well done, creators... Well done..
*actual
And? Have you played it yet? :) I finished it 1 week ago and can't get over it ._.
If you haven't played it yet and want to, I can buy it for you man
please buy it for me :( i dont have money
ScaplR SC it was 5€ a few days ago because of steam sales...
2017 .. and still crying like a baby.
2018 still got something in my eye
2018 here
Weeks away from 2019 here.
2019 still trying to take the thing stuck in my eyes
2019 here
I'm so thankful this beautiful piece of music exists.. so much nostalgia, for both Life is Strange and my own life.
Chloe never saw Max again. If Max chose to save the town then after they split up when they were kids Chloe doesn’t remember the times they had after they grew up. Only Max remembers and it technically didn’t happen after she turned back time.
Sad. So sad.
"After 9 years, you're still Max Caulfield..."
-Me at the announcement
I just finished life is strange 2 and David talking about max and chloe with this gently playing in the background had me ugly sobbing in a good way
This game made me rethink my whole existence.😐 I don't even know what life is now.😕😂
*Update* (10/18/2023)
It's been 6 years. I still listen to the Life is Strange soundtrack all the time while studying, writing, and working. But, I especially like listening to this song when I feel lost or need to feel "grounded." This song reminds me of what life once was and what it means to me now. It reminds me of how far I've come even though I sometimes feel like not much in my life has changed and I don't feel like I've changed as a person much either. This song says to me, "Don't worry dude. Everything is going to be okay."
This song and this game have taught me not to worry so much about the past and not to be so anxious about the future that I miss the beauties of life in front of me here and now. Don't try to grow up too fast. Don't overwork yourself. Slow down. Take chances. Make the scary decisions. Be kind and show love to people. Exercise. Eat healthy food. And don't forget to have fun. As cool as it would be to have rewind powers like Max, we don't, so we have to take advantage of the time we have and we have to use our best judgement when making life-altering decisions.
I used to feel like my life didn't matter, like my minor mistakes and blemishes made me an inherently bad person. I don't feel that way anymore. I love living and learning. I love improving myself in all areas necessary. I find it funny how something as simple as a video game plot can change a person in real life. There was a time when I didn't really understand what life was. Now I know exactly what it is. Life is good. Life is....weird. ❤
ethan davis It fucked ip everybody who played it...trust me
I know what life is....it's strange
@@jaidensuxlol8623 Indeed it is my friend! But I've now learned that it is also beautiful. This game will never get old
Man, this song playing in LiS 2 gave me such a rush of emotions.
I love this soo much!!
this game changed me!!
This left a giant hole in my heart, I was extremely depressed after finishing the game for the first time. What a good game honestly, nothing else has ever made me feel like that...
Played this game for the first time 3 weeks ago. I was only 10 when it came out back in 2015 and I’m 19 now but it gives me a very nostalgic feeling of my pre teen years and high school. This song gives me a feeling that I can’t really explain and makes me tear up. One of the best games I’ve ever played.
You know you loved a series when you devote your time drawing Max and Chloe while listening to this song on repeat such a great experience and I could never see this not being one of my favorites of all time
best thing in 2015.
+Ahmad Murad fail
+The Infinity Gems That doesn't mean it's still not the best thing that exists in 2016 as well though~ ;)
+Claudia; {rblnglsrl} One of them! :')
Best game of the century
+Ellia Cobb best game of the millennium
after all these years...i’m still playing this game and listening to the amazing soundtrack.
Max and chloe should stay together no matter what.
Warren is bae *cough* *cough*
+Dan Gaming Warren can go to hell *cough cough* Chloe for life *cough cough cough*
Dan Gaming Warren is best bro
Agreed. They are inseperable. Game proved us enough that no matter what Max loves Chloe. I can't get why some pals are comparing Warren with Chloe in every chance they get. He is already out of the match. Also didn't Max say "CHLOE" is her number one priority and questioned if she has romantic feelings for her at the end of diary? Yes she did.
+Level0 You clearly did not see all the hints that he was actively stalking Max and being generally creepy... Google it :P
After 10 years you’re still Max Canfield…😃
It is peculiar, that I couldn't shed a tear during my beloved grandfathers funeral, but at the end of this game, I cried a river. I guess, that Life is Strange.
“My powers might not last.”
“But we will- forever.”
Idk how it happened but when I was 16 I came across this game and it just changed my perspective on a lot of things, I was a reckless kid and didn’t know how to behave until this game gave me literal general knowledge. And I listen to this them in nostalgia of my teen years (I’m 20 now) and it brings me joy to know how much good memories this one game gave me and how at the time it also reminds me of all the other games I played at the time and all the good times I had with my friends. Shit hits hard fr and I hope it did the same for others!
This game is life changing
I was at a real dark place when this game came out. I'd sit in my room playing this song on the menu in repeat. It helped keep me alive. This game and song still has a place in my heart. I have a wife and kid now.
this game has changed my life in a way i never thought it could, i first played the demo in 2015 on my ps3 when i was like 10 and was so hyped playing it, 2 years later when i already got my ps4 the game goes free on PSN, i remember playing most of the time on my bed at night when everyone was asleep, only me awake playing this game, i wish i could tell myself to not do that, cuz i got so involved in the game and characters that i spent a entire week depressed, not just sad but literally depressed, i didn't wanted to go out cuz everything i would think is that the game was over, and max and chloe would stay in there forever and all the characters like rachel, david, kate, Victoria, warren would just stay there and there wasn't nothing i could do about it. that's definitely my favorite game forever, best soundtrack, best characters and best animation design
i played this game in augest 2017 because my sister bought it because she was bored I had no idea what I was getting into, I ended up beating it before her. it didn't hit right away I just realised that after finishing the game that I still wanted to stay at Arcadia bay. but the thing that hurt the most was seeing chloe die after what we been through it took me a bit to register and then I just started being sad like I lost someone that was dear to me. my sister finished the game and she thought it was ok, its bizarre I've spent an entire summer vacation (3 months) being depressed about a character in a game and a fictional town to the point that I started ignoring hanging out with my friends and making excuses to why I cant come. knowing I'm not the only one dealing with these emotions helped a lot. eventually after a while I stoped feeling bad, every time that I was thinking about this game it was sad memories but after a while it became happy nostalgic memories, I'm very grateful for this game making me feel a lot of emotions when I barely felt any significant ones in a while and now I just listen to the music because its calming, beautiful and nostalgic.
I haven't played Life is Strange or Before the Storm since 2017, nor have I played LIS2/True Colours, but damn, as soon as I heard this, instant nostalgia, the days of everyone just theorising what was gonna be happening to Max and Chloe, what happened to Rachel, the Vortex Club etc.
Those days were brilliant. I remember being so hyped up when I was in college and a new episode teaser would drop.
God how time flies, can't believe it's been over 7 years since it released.
Yep 2017 was also the last time for me to play and finish LIS1,BTS Episode1-2, after that kinda forgot about this game, I went to new school making friends and studying, honestly it is the best when you go to new school and played LIS a day before that
I felt very adventurous being 16 and played LIS1, used to love doing dangerous stuff and smoking and acting like Chloe lol
I came here right after I heard about the remaster. Already in the mood to replay it
Dude this was so hard to find i gave up three years ago, now i got back into it and thought to try and find it again.finally
''Chloe, im so sorry, i tried to make things different for you. I did try, im sorry''
I still remember.. Thank you
Roughly 4 years since I beat the game (you can find comments from me scattered around when I beat it freshly) and I feel almost as sad as I did when I first finished the story even though I haven't played or watched it in a very long time. The feeling of melancholy and the bittersweetness of both endings is very well-written, even if the lack of choices turned some people off.
The music perfectly fits the themes of coming of age, going on a journey, learning from experiences and sorrow - which are all important parts of life and perhaps a bit more dramatic for Max than the rest.
Such a heart touching game and amazing music to accompany it.
The episode Farewell from Behind The Storm, to me, is the perfect send-off of their story because it shows you how alone and broken Chloe was as Max moved away. And gave us a glimpse at how innocent their bond was, too. And seeing the butterfly carved on the fireplace without explanation was a nice homage to their future.
a game i wish i could forget playing just to experience it again
