    Good but, pretty slow and drawn out, as well some of the ambiguity around your actions leaves you wondering whether or not you've made a undesirable action, unfortunately you would have to play through a second time to try to figure out exactly what the ramifications of what you are doing are. It's not alluring enough for that.

    Два центральных персонажа сюжета - Макс и Хлоя. Хлоя пытается найти Рэйчел Эмбер, которая пропала при загадочных обстоятельствах - развесила повсюду листовки, а также собирает информацию по крупицам, но так как она подросток, то все усилия тщетны. Макс - бывшая лучшая подруга Хлои, вернувшаяся спустя 5 лет, за неё нам и предстоит играть, помогая Хлое в поисках исчезнувшей Рэйчел.Два центральных персонажа сюжета - Макс и Хлоя. Хлоя пытается найти Рэйчел Эмбер, которая пропала при загадочных обстоятельствах - развесила повсюду листовки, а также собирает информацию по крупицам, но так как она подросток, то все усилия тщетны. Макс - бывшая лучшая подруга Хлои, вернувшаяся спустя 5 лет, за неё нам и предстоит играть, помогая Хлое в поисках исчезнувшей Рэйчел.

    Начинается история со встречи двух подруг при не самых благоприятных обстоятельствах, после которых Макс получает суперсилу из-за сильного стресса - теперь она умеет отматывать время назад и менять уже прошедшие события, это и будет главной фишкой игры! Реализована перемотка крайне грамотно и не ощущается как читерство вместо перезапуска чекпоинтов, она является неотъемлемым элементом геймплея и использовать её необходимо в ключевых моментах. Сила пригодится при выборе неблагоприятных вариантов ответа, а также задавая неудобный вопрос в диалоге, выводящий из себя собеседника, можно узнать важную информацию, но быть посланным куда подальше. Перематываем, отвечаем иначе или задаём другой вопрос и меняем уже прошедшие события так как нам хочется или как будет правильно, всё зависит от вас - можете пытаться всем угодить, а можете поступать по совести, приняв последствия решений.

    Как вам такое - знать, что будет после принятия решения, понимать последствия, но всё равно оставить как есть и идти дальше, вытерев слёзы?
    Мне было непросто, в том числе и из-за привязанности к тем, на кого повлияют решения! Даже неприятный мне персонаж раскрывается со временем и уже не всё так однобоко, как на первый взгляд кажется - в этом и кроется магия игры, за что спасибо сценаристам, актёрам и постановщикам!

    Нас ждут по большей части грустные события, периодически разбавляемые позитивными моментами, которые в такой депрессивной истории просто как глоток воды в пустыне и поэтому когда что-то такое радостное происходит, то искренне радуешься мелочам, как в жизни. Такой эффект достигается благодаря подробной проработке игрового мира и неторопливому повествованию - игроку даётся шанс полностью исследовать локации и пообщаться с второстепенными персонажами.
    Концовка игры немного нелогичная, но в этой киношке главное не концовка, а сам процесс, вытягивающий наружу весь спектр эмоций от умиления до ярости.

    Далее хотелось бы рассказать о минусах, в основном связанных с изменением прошедших событий, то есть о некоторой нелогичности и ляпах, но не могу я данный шедевр оценивать объективно… никак не получается, поэтому нахрен минусы - всё шикарно! Если приквел мне просто очень понравился, то основная часть по всем параметрам «быстрее, выше, сильнее и эпичнее»!

    Life Is Strange falls in between of OK, and bad. The story of the game is corny and fun, and sometimes emotional. It's a solid adventure, and I had some fun with it.

Also, the game has only 2 endings, so choices never matter in the long run. You could make completely different choices than you did the first time you played and get the same ending.
    Overall, it's a below average game that with just a few tweaks could be great. I wanted a 6.7 out of 10, but I'll go with 6. Mediocre at best.    … Expand

    Jogo lançado em 2015 pela Square Enix e desenvolvido pelo estúdio Francês Dontnod Entertainment (Remember Me). Este jogo causou certa polêmica, não apenas no campo da proposta de gameplay, mas também em grupos de gamers e na mídia, uma vez que ele foi publicado em 5 episódios entre os meses de janeiro e outubro de 2015. O jogo foi lançado para várias plataformas (mobile, pc, e consoles).Jogo lançado em 2015 pela Square Enix e desenvolvido pelo estúdio Francês Dontnod Entertainment (Remember Me). Este jogo causou certa polêmica, não apenas no campo da proposta de gameplay, mas também em grupos de gamers e na mídia, uma vez que ele foi publicado em 5 episódios entre os meses de janeiro e outubro de 2015. O jogo foi lançado para várias plataformas (mobile, pc, e consoles).

    O jogo nos faz decidir a vida de Maxine Caulfield (cujo apelido carinhoso é Max), uma estudante de fotografia que descobre possuir a habilidade de voltar no tempo a qualquer momento, fazendo com que cada escolha sua crie um efeito borboleta (ou seja alterações no futuro e sim é muito semelhante ao filme de mesmo nome – só o primeiro que realmente é bom). Os acontecimentos se passam na cidade fictícia de Arcadia Bay, no estado do Oregon, durante a semana de 7 de outubro de 2013.

    Max acorda de um “Déjà vu” durante a aula de fotografia do seu professor Jefferson, onde ela prevê a chegada de uma grande tempestade, Max então assume a responsabilidade de impedir que sua cidade seja destruída. Contudo fácil seria se objetivo fosse apenas deter a tempestade, pois ainda no primeiro episódio você irá reencontrar uma velha amiga de infância chamada Chloe Price, que no banheiro acaba por ser assassinada pelo garoto rico e que se acha dono de todos, Nathan Prescott. Bom sabendo dos poderes de voltar no tempo, já usados em sala de aula, Max salva Chloe e a história se inicia (não me aprofundarei mais, para não dar tantos spoilers do jogo, uma vez que ele é todo em narrativa e isso estragaria o prazer que ele nos dá).

    As ações do jogador ajustam a narrativa enquanto ela se desenrola (sendo que estas alterações podem ter consequências curtas, médias e longas no decorrer da história, mesmo ela sendo em episódios). Missões secundárias e a realização de mudanças no ambiente se apresentam em formas de quebra-cabeças, seja com uma árvore de diálogos ou organização de objetos presente em ambientes com outros personagens. Outra questão polêmica no jogo que dá seu tom interativo único, mesmo com vários elementos clichês, mas que junto criam sincronia perfeita elementos da história, que retrata a questão de abuso, bullying, assassinato, suicídio, romance e ódio entre adolescentes.

    Logo se prepare para ter acessos de felicidade, tristeza, ódio e paixão, além de nervosismo e ansiedade com esta obra.

    A trilha sonora do jogo é fantástica, mesmo ela sendo destinada a informar sobre o clima e os acontecimentos do jogo, como o próprio diretor criativo da desenvolvedora disse, a trilha sonora composta por Jonathan Morali compõe “50% da experiência em game” então curta ela enquanto estiver jogando Life is Strange, pois fará muita diferença.

    Um detalhe importante que muito se ressalta nas críticas sobre gráficos é o fato de parte da captura de expressões faciais e sincronização de falas, som e imagem terem um leve atraso, mas que nada influencia a jogabilidade ou mecânica do jogo. Por ele ter sido produzido ao longo de muito tempo, correções e melhoramentos são muito percebidos entre os episódios.

    Logo a construção gráfica e até mesmo patchs de correções, que adicionaram, por exemplo, legendas em português e melhor otimização das falas com expressões dos personagens, fazem o jogo ser uma excelente obra que o tempo não interfere na hora de ser jogada.

    A jogabilidade do game é simples, como já parcialmente foi tratada ao dar a premissa do game. Vamos explorar ela mais um pouco sem tentar dar spoilers (o que é difícil), bem o game tem um sistema linear e independente que faz tudo ser interativo, logo o game te força a explorar todas as possibilidades de cada cenário (e você deve fazer isso, uma vez que todas as conquistas do jogo são fotos estratégicas que são necessárias em determinadas partes do jogo), mas sem grandes dificuldades.

    Life is Strange nos dias atuais desta resenha (2018) está relativamente bem acessível, originalmente seu preço atual na mídia digital varia dos 8,00 reais a 45,00 reais. Bom, se o preço estiver alto espere uma boa promoção e adquira, pois vale muito a pena este game. Contudo se você quiser comprar uma mídia física bom se prepare para desembolsar 80 a 120 reais e nesta faixa de preço o jogo não fica tão atrativo, uma vez que ele leva no máximo 15 horas para ser concluído.

    Chegamos agora na conclusão, Life is Strange é um jogo excelente, original e que te faz ficar bem imerso na história, tem uma boa duração, mesmo para um indie. Sua gameplay é fluente e a história não se arrasta, mesmo que 99% do game seja em diálogos. A história é complexa e bem amarrada, mesmo você tomando as decisões. Seu custo benefício nos dias de hoje, para mídias digitais é ótimo.    … Expand

That being said this game is an emotional roller coaster with numerous decisions one must make that affect the game down the road. It is a plot driven game that keeps you guessing from start to finish. I found myself spending a good 7 hours binging the last 3 chapters. The only complaint I have is about the (few) scavenger hunt quests. One of them in Chapter Two is brutally long and tedious, however it only seemed like a chore that one time. The original soundtrack and score for Life Is Strange is fantastic and is one of my favourite parts of this game. All in all, if you are looking for a story driven adventure this is your game. Square Enix did a fantastic job with Life is Strange and I applaud them. If you do choose to buy Life Is Strange, do yourself a favour and but the season pass, otherwise your paying for an incomplete game.… Expand

    Dontnod, sans doute un jeu de mot involontaire de leur plein gré pour "don't know" et c'est vrai qu'ils ne savent pas. Ils l'ont déjà démontré avec Remember Me le jeu à oublier aussi sec et ils le démontrent encore avec Life is strange qui reprend le même principe foireux de remontage du temps. Il paraît que cela vous donne le choix, mais en vérité, le choix est illusoire dans ce jeu d'aventure-couloir.

Quand, de surcroît, ce jeu minable tente de singer Twin Peaks, alors on s'indigne puis on rigole devant tant de prétention. En outre, pour un jeu français, on n'y parle que le yankee marshmallow !

    Le seul point positif concerne les graphismes moins immondes que d'habitude (pour un indé à la mords-moi-le-noeud) mais franchement, nous aussi, on aimerait remonter le temps pour éviter de jouer à cet étron merde in France.    … Expand

But where the game shines is in it's ability to give the gamer choices that relate to real life relatable issues, and it sucks you in. Many will have that nostalgic feeling of their highschool days. The story takes many unexpected twists and each episode ends with a cliffhanger to keep you coming back for more. And last but not least, the indie soundtrack of the game is amazing and does such a brilliant job at setting the tone and location and mood.

It had a strong female roll to boot, told an amazing story, incorporated super powers without making the main character feel cheap, or like a god among human, but just rather an extraordinary human. The choices and characters were built in such a way I felt for them. This is an A+ game, episodic or not.

The joy in this one is learning about all these varied characters. It is encouraged that you always look around at everything and talk to everybody - you never know what you might find!
