    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. About time this game is finally done.

    The last episode was another disappointment, this one is slightly better but as with the very first episode the French developer is unable to address politics with the honesty and nuance they require, which of course once again takes away from the story they are trying to tell.

    It is funny that after saying for years that they do not want to define anything regarding Max and Chloe they caved hard and spent time on doing them justice and updating the player on how they are. Products always have to fail in the market before developers get off their high horse and actually start caring about what the people that buy their games want.

    This does not save this game from being a terrible entry in the Life is Strange franchise, but it does give hope that the publisher finally understood why the first game was so popular.    … Expand

    la verdad a mi me ha gustado la saga life is strange, pero al venderlo por fasciculos lo encuentro pesimo para la industria por lo que por muy bueno que sea no me interesa.

    This is not a game this is just an another frail political statement. White people are monsters just because they are white, and ethnic minorities are all saints just because they are ethnic minorities. And guess what makes the whole situation even more ridiculous? Dontnod Entertainment is a french studio. If you are a snowflake and a big fan of all this racist hysterics you willThis is not a game this is just an another frail political statement.

    Life is Strange 2 found not only a unique voice with the debut of Sean and Daniel, but an important one.

    ”Wolves” is as short as it is exciting. It’ll hold our attention at every minute, and the outcome of our choices (even the ones we made in earlier episodes) is as surprising as it should be. Life is Strange 2 aims for impact and importance, and even though the game’s social justice message may be a little naive, the ending works.

    Life is Strange 2 is a much less subtle part than its predecessor and makes it difficult to get used to it, due to constantly changing characters. The game remains exciting from start to finish, but fortunately does have the same zen moments as its predecessor.
