Can we have a LiS thread?

Favorite Episode? Favorite character? Favorite moment?

What do you think of the game, overall?
>>
Well for me, I'll say that my favorite episode was 4.

I wasn't expecting them follow through with that alternate timeline the way they did. And the decision to put Chloe to sleep was maybe the hardest one in the game, even though I assumed Max would return to the original timeline soon after.

If the game sold itself as a "Disney Teen Drama" and it was honest to itself about it's lazy writing and stupid plot restrictions just for the sake of pushing the narrative, then I'd probably like it.

As it is though? It's terrible at what it's trying to be and never comes close to what it claims it was going to be.

>>
>>324348430
Classes have 5 people in them, the interactions between characters are shallow, everyone is a trope, Max the socially awkward person that can achieve anything is just flat out lazy, the stereotype rich bitch character, the fat person with a kind soul.

As for the stupid plot restrictions, how about the fact that Max can rewind time but only to the extent of changing a choice in a scene, not avoiding the scene all together, such as getting attacked by Nathan. You can't rewind out of the scene, you can just manipulate how the scene plays out.
>>
What's with all the shilling of this shit game recently?
>>
>>324349251
>such as getting attacked by Nathan.
Because Max can't change what happens to her physically. Her time travel affects the world around her, not her herself. But to be honest I have my own quibbles with the time travel mechanics, so meh.

I disagree about the character interactions being shallow. And it's a highschool setting, of course everyone's a trope.

>Max the socially awkward person that can achieve anything is just flat out lazy
This is a false interpretation of her character. Max isn't someone who can "achieve anything," she's not particularly skilled at anything outside of photography. And its lack of confidence holding her back in that area, not laziness.

She owes nearly all of her achievements throughout the game to her sudden ability to have infinite do-overs, which is why the first time she has to actually to do something without her time travel ability (save Kate), she has a very real chance of pratfalling.

4 was the best episode
mercy killing chloe in ep 4 was the best moment
it was a good adventure, better than modern telltale output save for borderlands, but they botched the ending, sadly.

also i wonder, was the game written in english or french? if it was translated, that'd explain some of the out of place dialogue.
>>
Final episode (not just the ending) really tainted the experience for me.

I was shocked by how invested I had become considering it had a fairly rough start, but in the end at all leads to nothing.

>I can't wait to see where all this foreshadowing is going!

>>324350786
It's too bad they never explained where Max's powers came from.
>>
>>324350975
Turns out God was just fucking with her.
>>
>>324351104
I guess. That might be one of my problems with the game, though.

At the end of the day, the moral of the story seems to be that you can't change the inevitable. Or at least, you shouldn't. But it's never clear why Max needed to be taught that lesson. She doesn't embrace the rewind ability until like episode 3 or so.
>>
>>324351657
The lesson is that if you ever get time powers and use them by accident, do not use them to save someone's life, you monster.
>>
>>324350086
>Max can't change what happens to her physically
She could see him coming, rewind, and thus not be in the situation anymore, but she can't the game locks you in the situation.

Even taking into account the fact she can't effect herself, she could still pull Nathan out of the space and be able to escape the situation entirely by effectively leaving earlier than she did.

>it's a highschool setting, of course everyone's a trope.
That's a poor excuse for bad writing "They've always been written bad, so it's okay they're written bad"

>This is a false interpretation of her character.
She had no confidence only in characterisation, she is in fact happy to do almost anything with only the slightest of encouragement. I don't mean she is skilled and thus is talented at everything, I mean she is only superficially lacking in confidence to try make her seem likeable which is the laziest of tropes.
>>
>>324352553
I'm actually not 100% sure what scene you're talking about with Nathan, to be honest. Are you talking about when she encounters him in the boys dorm and Warren kicks the shit out of him?

>That's a poor excuse for bad writing "They've always been written bad, so it's okay they're written bad"
That's fair, but they also go beyond the tropes. Nathan's a great example, but you can even look at the Vortex club as a whole. They seem like a bunch of bitches and whores on paper, but even as supporting characters with not much going on there's still more to almost all of them than meets the eye. Dana for example, who fits all the tropes of a bimbo cheerleader on paper but is actually probably the most relatable member of the club. I mean you can ragged on Daniel for being onenote, but Max also literally only has like two interactions with him throughout the entire game; anyone can seem one-note when you've only talked with them for a couple minutes.

I would even grant you that Victoria's one of the weaker characters, but even she has things going on, like the differences in how she interacts online compared to how she carries herself in person.

>,she is in fact happy to do almost anything with only the slightest of encouragement.
I don't think that's true though. The elephant in the room here is that if that were the case Jefferson wouldn't have had such a hard time getting her to submit a photo for the contest.

And as to that being a device to make her likeable, I also disagree there, because I don't actually see myself getting along well with someone like Max. Every time she rags on someone about recycling or not using "natural products" I roll my eyes. She's also (recognized by bother herself and others) incredibly nosy. I know people like that and they're irritating.

She is in fact not a confident person, at all. That's what Chloe is for.
>>
>>324353763
To be fair I've only played the first two episodes, but I feel 40% of the game is enough for me to judge, I've lost all motivation to play the rest, so if it improves and fixes these issues I wont know.

The fight I'm talking about is when she meets up with Chloe.
>>
>>324354842
I don't actually have a strong recollection of that scene, so I'll just grant you it. And like I said, it's not like I don't have my own problems with the time travel stuff. Time travel stories almost always have weird inconsistencies, it's why I often avoid them.

Yes the games does take the reigns from you often, but the way I see it it still gives a lot more freedom than most other games of this sort does.

If this were a game without that mechanic, you would just make your choice and hope for the best. LiS lets you peek at both sides of the coin without spoiling the longterm consequences for yourself, which I thought was really neat.

There's an interaction in I think episode 4 that has a shitton of variables feeding into it and can end anywhere from you having killed a man to you walking away with him on your side, and you can explore every layer of that conversation from beginning to end using the rewind, but at the end of the day you still have to make a decision, wondering what the eventual impact of it will be. Stuff like that is why, despite some issues I really liked the time-travel gimmick.
>>
>>324348430
>>lazy writing
>>stupid plot restrictions
Did you even play the game? The ending was the stupidest, laziest, most cliche time travel ending ever. Everyone was guessing it from episode one, and they still did it.
Also the plot restrictions were that saving Chloe from her fate resulted in a destructive storm one week later. Saving her dad from his fate didn't cause a storm.
>>
>>324355681
>Saving her dad from his fate didn't cause a storm.

Actually, it might have and Max just didn't stick around to see it.

Even in the alternate timeline the weird weather shit is still happening, you can even talk to William and Joyce about it. They (and by extension you) just don't care as much because Chloe is in the limelight.
>>
>>324351771
>>324351104
The worst part about the ending is that she had visions of the tornado before chloe ever died. It makes no sense
>>
>>324355953
>Actually, it might have and Max just didn't stick around to see it.
No, it didn't. The storm leveled the bay, and there was no changes to the town or dead people in the alternate timeline.
As for the weather changes still happening, that was because chloe was still alive. And even if it was related to William, he got to live A FUCKING DECADE before a storm started brewing after his death
>>
Reminder that cut lines were found in the files, including Nathan knowing about the storm in episode 4. You can look this up on google or youtube.
They clearly had a much different ending in mind, but changed either due to budget or time frame

Chloe for some reason, must die in that bathroom, otherwise a catastrophic storm will form in one week.
William is saved from his fate, yet no storm happens for a decade. And the forming storm is most likely still because chloe didn't die in that bathroom, because why would a storm form a decade after saving William?

Hell max won the contest, flew to San Fran, and fucking FORGOT about the storm.

The foundation of the anomaly surrounding Max, is her relationship with her bff Chloe. Whatever the source is of the storm, it's because Max has been fucking with time to keep Chloe alive. The other people Max saved are just background noise.
>>

>>
>>324357730
The source of the storm is very clearly that chloe did not die in that bathroom. That's why the ending was either save chloe, or go back and let her die.
If you want to argue it was her messing around with time the whole time
>go back to the bathroom

>>324357856
>The source of the storm is very clearly that chloe did not die in that bathroom.
That we agree on. But the chain of events caused by saving Chloe that one time, led to more and more instances of Max having to save Chloe's life. It was this recurring act that created the storm. A ripple effect.
>>
>>324358013
It doesn't even end up killing everyone in the bay, because you can clearly see a dead body covered by a sheet in the ending. So there are survivors
>>
>>324357231
> yet no storm happens for a decade.
Instead he gets to deal with crippling debt, and a daughter on death's door. I'm not saying it's equivalent exchange or some bullshit like that, but it's not like there weren't consequences for saving William.

Besides, maybe the reason why there was no storm is because Chloe was going to die anyway. That whole timeline was just Chloe being slowly railroaded into death.

>And the forming storm is most likely still because chloe didn't die in that bathroom
Chloe probably wouldn't have died in the bathroom anyway in the alternate timeline. The circumstances were completely different.

>Hell max won the contest, flew to San Fran, and fucking FORGOT about the storm.
This is true. Though to be fair, she just escaped from being tortured and killed in some bunker in the middle of nowhere, I think she was still just trying to catch her breath.

>>324358013
I actually strongly suspect that the "save Chloe" ending would eventually cause the entire world to implode, or some shit. If they ever wrote a sequel to that ending, it would be Max and Chloe on the road while increasingly bad shit keeps happening across the entire globe.
>>
>>324358103
Except she had visions of the storm before even saving Chloe once. So the entire concept is flawed, because clearly it was already coming
>>
>>324358158
>Instead he gets to deal with crippling debt, and a daughter on death's door
Except that's just life. That's not a super natural consequence for messing with time.
>Chloe probably wouldn't have died in the bathroom anyway in the alternate timeline. The circumstances were completely different.
It's most likely because she didn't die there because why would a storm form a decade after william was saved? It was pretty clearly still based off Chloe
>Though to be fair, she just escaped from being tortured and killed in some bunker in the middle of nowhere, I think she was still just trying to catch her breath.
She had the entire plane ride to catch her breath. I could understand if she forgot for like ten minutes, but she was flying for around an hour, and then traveled to the exhibit.

It does, because asides from being shot up with drugs and having pictures, taken, nothing happened to her. Forgetting the storm that's gonna kill all over your friends is inexcusable.

I'm no armchair psychologist anon, but I'm gonna go ahead and say it's actually more unbelievable that Max was as held together as she was afterwards. Especially considering she's not the most confidence person in the first place.

She most likely did. If you read Max's texts there's a whole string of stuff between her and Chloe regarding the incident and also her winning the contest and stuff.
>>
>>324359532
Those were alternate universe texts. Max already had those from her auto pilot self, she didn't send them herself.
So no, she didn't call her friend immediately.

Also the tornado arrived Friday right? The funeral should be a few days before that.
The whole bay is so full of weird crap and features another layer of time-meddling the tornado is definitely on the way again
I just want LiS 2 to feature new characters but have a news report of a catastrophic tornado destroying a small town in the first episode

The entire rachel plot ended in kind of a disappointing way, to be honest. For how central it was to the plot, when you find out "oh mystery solved Nathan was just being a fuckup" it was underwhelming.

I was expecting her to have something to do with Max's powers. It would have explained how she was able to get along so well with seemingly everyone in town.

Well, they do, up to a certain point. But it should have been clear after episode 3's ending that the rewind is basically a giant reset button.
>>
>>324362997
>Choices DON'T EVEN MATTER.

Well, yes and no. Regardless of what choices you made you'll still end up at the final choice yes, but the journey you take to get to that final choice is influenced by the choices you make along the way.

That said, you could make an argument that the choices not mattering is kind of the point.

And that's not really untrue. For example, how you played affects your options with Warren at the end, and whether Max and Chloe kiss again or hug it out. It also changes how Max words her thoughts on Chloe in her final journal entry.

And there's nothing to the ending besides the choice. It was the shittiest, most predictable time travel cliche ending ever. Everyone and their mother was guessing this is how it would end from episode one. That's just terrible writing.
I could probably tell a friend a brief rundown of episode one, and tell them to try guessing how it ends, and they could guess it.

Who wrote the top blurb?

>>324364586
That was from their website. They also have plenty of tweets saying the game was always written this way, despite the incredible amount of cut content found in the game files.
For example, Nathan had lines in episode 4 knowing about the storm. Even yelling "The storm is coming to kill you all"
>>
>>324364690
Sounds like the dev didn't get to do everything they wanted to.

But if you're going to say that what they ultimately put out was poorly written, I can't go there with you.
>>
>>324364787
I'm saying the ending was ultimately poor written. Episodes 1-4 were great. The ending was absolute shit, and thinking otherwise makes you a shit eater.

>>324364939
My premise stands. If you are making an episodic game, and at the end of the first episode, or hell, even just by watching the fucking trailer for the first episode, I can guess the ending correctly, your writing is shit.
There's no defending it, it's a shit ending anon. It's the oldest time travel cliche there is, and they went with it anyway, despite people online guessing that was the ending for months

I keep saying it should have ended with the devil being behind the tornado and a climactic boss battle helped by Kate's holy powers
It would have been a lot more satisfying

This game was literally a school life Japanese Drama made into a game by westerners. I love JDrama, but this was pretty fucking bad, especially ep 5
Very generic, very boring, had a few good moments. The best part about it was that it simulated very well the feeling of being an edgy teenage girl.
The stealth section alone destroyed every bit of fun I had with it, let alone the fact that the ending disregarded every choice you made during your journey.
4/10 garbage

Actually kissing him will not have meaning or importance for Max afterwards, still friendzoning him in her thoughts, nightmares were the same, her thoughts were same about Chloe (love word, flirting people and shit) her journal entries explains everything about it no matter what did you do. That's why we're saying ''if they intended to design Max as RPG character, they failed.'' You can't change her feelings towards to Chloe at all because through the game she was like ''ihavetosaveherimmediately'' and you can't deny it.
So, even MC's feelings were pretty obvious and you can tell what'd she choose, both endings were pretty predictable and yeah unsatisfying and has one extra scenes. ''Muh choices matter'' thing was just a lie, Episode 5's good example for that: all of our choices happened in alternative realities and we got the same 'two' endings anyway

I like that they didn't make David a typical irredeemable step dad because he slapped a girl. It seemed like the devs payed well enough attention to how some of the characters were being received, like how fucking lame Max was getting made fun of more toward the end.

It's story and developments are interesting enough to keep one hooked for it's ~16 hour run but the payoff was horrible. Dialogue and character interactions were okay at best but often cringe-inducing at worst. It's a game that was best enjoyed while it was still being released episodically so that the shitty ending wasn't there to ruin everything and speculation could run rampant (though a lot of the twists were predictable).

I think the theory of time travel used in the game is similar to that of Donnie Darko. In that when time powers are used it creates an alternate universe that must end. Methods of travelling through time are different and the choice at the end of the game is either keep this universe going or travel back to your original universe. To keep this universe going though, there needs to be some destruction.

That isn't really explained well in the game but I don't think it was the developers intention to explain it.

Actually they couldn't even tell what did they originally intend. We have no real explanation about time travel, other than magic tornado and Rachel's revenge.

Seriously, I don't see the problem with the whole imagination thing.

There are so many theories about the ending, the powers, etc etc that people can run wild with it.


I much prefer the mystery over being spoonfed.

And you just know that if they tried to explain the time travel, faggots everywhere would say
>that doesn't make sense!
>that's not how this version of time travel works!
>b-but
>I want Warren to fuck my ass!
>>
>>324373564
That's kinda how I feel about it. Yes, the time travel shit has inconsistencies. Frankly, that's just the nature of most time travel stories. It's hard to get that shit nailed down 100%.

So I don't bother nitpicking shit in that particular area. LiS is far from the first story with these kinds of problems and it won't be the last.
>>
>>324373564
> if they tried to explain the time travel,

The problem is they couldn't explain anything and acting like the last episode was a masterpiece; not to mention of they were always lying. Whenever they try to explain anything for example ''muh Max isn't a good person'' they always fuck up.

I just meant that time travel is really hard to do. There are so many different versions in fiction that people will not like it regardless. Not to mention the whole powers thing. Like I said, the mystery is better so everyone can have their own little theories.
>>
>>324375127
I wish they could've explained everything -logical explanations of course- about tornado, time-travel thing exactly, before they leave it up to our imaginations...

That would be pretty shitty, not to mention virtually impossible, especially when you say "logical explanations". No matter what it's going to piss people off. There are hundreds of theories and whatnot surrounding all your questions and more.

Mystery is fun.
