Life is Strange 2 - Reveal Trailer (Read OP)

The appeal is the world/setting, if you don't like that then you probably won't like the game. It's about high school bullshit and friendship.
Some people have pretty clearly exposed themselves as not giving a shit about representation if the characters don't resemble themselves. Some are actually arguing it doesn't 'count' as much because the protagonists aren't women or gay (which we have no way of knowing). I legitimately don't know if I've ever played as a Hispanic character in a video game that wasn't in a fighting game. That alone is enough to get me excited and intrigued. It's what I want more from gaming and it's a unique perspective only gaming can provide.
Thanks for all the replies. I might give it a second try then.
I don't think the police confrontation would work the same way with a female character. I'm guessing they're going to go all in with that scenario before things escalate with the powers.
But people being sceptical before release (or after episode 1) is nothing new for this franchise. I'm sure it will be great.

Depends in what you dislike about it. The story takes some... Interesting turns though. Like finding out what happened to Rachel.
Games don't really focus on brotherhood/siblinghood that much in stories to be honest.
It's would be nice to see one do it well.

Especially with this story structured as a "journey", I'd rather play each episode as they drop, taking my time and having the experience dwell in my brain for months. But I get that it's a tough wait between episodes :/
Yes, yes, and I don't play the Walking Dead.
The complaining about not continuing Max and Chloe's story is extra hilarious because their literally making a comic which is just that.
How many aren't? Clementine in TWD1 is done well. Atreyus in GoW was good other than a certain section.
What else?
Because he's black and somehow none black gamers can only relate to Italian gangsters who goes around stealing and killing. Yep, those exact words came from individuals.
Well,life is Strange got a lot of awards for the story :)
Also i disagree.Storytelling in their game is great.
And funny enough,their stories is written by real authors,not random guys.It's the premise of the studio (created also by authors,not game dev),spending time writing and telling a story and making a game with it.
"If you want female characters it's only because you want to jerk off to them"
"No, I'm not projecting"
I get it. LiS was more than just a game to a ton of people. Very dedicated fan base around the main characters and again, we re getting a book based on bae ending.
Overall the fan base is not this thread, they re cool
Well, that's dumb. Im white, I fucking loved CJ. Arguably the best GTA protagonist with Tommy imo.
Most Persona fans(myself included) seem to have thought Nanako was fine.
Story sounds fucking awesome. I'm so in even though I'm sure it will be laughable, just like all previous LoS games.
I transcribed the newspaper clipping
Sounds like beside the 2 kids and their dad, there's a 3 character that could be important in the story (the teenager witness)
I remember is Elle from Tales of Xillia 2, she's a bit annoying at the beginning but she really grows on you
I cannot wait.
I kinda hope they don't feature Max and Chloe but they definitely will.
And I will fucking love the cameos in it even though I like the idea of their story being done.

Every single one in a Bethesda game.
Duck and Sarah from TWD.
Tiny Tina from Borderlands 2 (albeit, that game is just annoying in general).
That's all I can think of so far. I'm sure there are more if I think harder. I know there is one more out there with an excessively annoying one I can't remember.
He's not supposed to be part of the main story, Captain Spirit was only a side story that offered a quick introduction to who the protagonists would be.
I transcribed the newspaper clipping
Ok. Sounds more interesting than the first one
and lmaoooo when did life is strange fans become toxic
Oh shit, two Hispanic characters that aren't there just as side characters and seem to have dialogue that doesn't include shit like, hermano and muchacho? I'm definitely interested.
^^^
More on topic, this trailer absolutely contains the DNA of the franchise itself, from the art direction to the music and cinematography.
"Meet Chris again in LiS2"
at the end of Captain Spirit,did you forget about that? :)
I'm thinking they just feature in a newspaper or on a TV at some point.
I suppose they could cross paths briefly along the way though.
LOL, right? I saw the first trailer for LiS and thought, "holy shit that looks gay, hook it up to my veins."
Ftr, I'm Chicana and I co-sign everything you've said in this thread. This ain't about race.
LiS and Before the Storm are my favourite "click and point" adventures of recent times. Can't wait for this!
I've read through this thread and the only thing I can come up with is i don't understand people, like I can't believe this thread had to get a mod edit.
The kid from the Gold Idol quest in Dragon Dogma, the Jarl's (I think? Im shit with titles) kids in Skyrim, almost every "kid" character in a Tales game
It was kinda obvious with the s1 finale and farewell episode, that the story with Chloe and Max is done. Also The Last of Us Part 2, a triple A exklusive, Sony published game, is going to feature a lesbian.
