♥♥♥♥♥♥ optimised and also way too difficult and random

After playing almost 1000 hours, I can finally say that this game is trash. And I still haven't understood the navy

It was definitely better than Fallen Order. Really liked the story, even had some plot twists I wasn't expecting at all. It wasn't that typical sob story for me which would place any game directly in the top of my personal tier list, but I still really enjoyed playing it.

Also, Kata is right. Merrin is so pretty...

I love it. my acoustic ass collected 99 hours of playtime in a normal school week

The last two episodes, especially the last one were really rushed and I wasn't able to really understand the whole plot because of that, which is really sad. But other than that, I actually quite enjoyed the game despite the hate and criticism. Of course, playing Max again was a huge part of it but besides that, this game had me feeling a bit like when I was playing Life is Strange 1.

I missed a few things I would have liked to see, but I already have the highest play time for one run in this game compared to all other LiS games, so I can live with that. I'm excited to see how the ending leads to the new game: Reunion!

All in all, I do recommend playing the game. It has its flaws, yes, but I find that every LiS game has its few flaws. They're not perfect games, and of course the other Lis games will always be better than this one, but it's still worth it. Be open minded and find out for yourself.

I love Alex as a character, and also that we get to see Steph but this time she's shining as a main character! All in all, it's another great Life is Strange game, though there is a lot of lost potential. I think it could have been even longer and comparing to Lis 1 or 2, the story seemed way quicker and less deeper.

Would still definitely recommend to play it, especially if you're into emotional games anyways. This game is all about that, lol.

I get that many people really dig this game, the vibe and the story, and perhaps I should have given it more time to develop on me but I feel like if a game doesn't bring any fun to me in the first 15 hours, the overall setting just doesn't hit me.

I am personally just not a big fan of "wild west" settings, hunting and revolver-battling, the whole male-centered story and all that. The world is beautiful, yes, but that's not my main focus when I play the game. That's just my personal view, and honestly I'd wished I could have fun with the game, even tried to let it rest for 2 years to see if it was just not the right time for me. But I guess you don't have to like everything. So yeah, that's my totally subjective opinion on RDR2.

yes

Very emotional game as always for a Life is Strange game. Some might disagree, but I still think LiS 1 is better, I just connected to the overall story way more and the endings had me crying for hours, which wasn't the case here - to my surprise. As I usually cry constantly over such things.

Still, I recommend playing the game. Digging into it was great and I nonetheless loved it.

Best game ever
