✦ AI summary

Life is Strange: Before the Storm Remastered is praised by players for its engaging story, emotional depth, and character development, particularly in exploring Chloe's backstory within the series. However, the remaster is hampered by significant technical issues including audio sync problems, screen tearing, stuck subtitles, and overall poor optimization that suggests a rushed release, with some players also finding the pacing uneven and the tonal shift in the final act jarring.

While I think the game is great the remaster suffers from a lot of technical problems, like they didn't put much effort into this like they forgot it existed and did it last minute. I'm not sure if its just because I played with uncapped framerate but there's a lot of times audio is out of sync or doesn't play at all, sometimes subtitles get stuck on the screen too and the screen tearing is really bad, I don't think there's even a vsync option in the menu. The remaster of the first game had a couple problems too here and there but nowhere near as many as this game.

Just absolutely a wild game. Currently getting into story-choice driven games after playing the wolf amongst us, and I can't tell you how this game spoke to me. I'm going on to play the next Life Is Strange Remastered, and am extremely excited to see how it pans out. 10/10 Would recommend.

In my opinion the pacing dragged in places, and it lacked a good balance between story and gameplay. I felt the conversations between the characters were unnecessarily long, almost like I was watching a movie. Still, it was a good opportunity to learn more about Chloe, and it definitely didn't stop me from playing the rest of the games in the series

This gets really heavy in the last third when arguably, it should have been mainly school / teen nonsense. Do the choices even really matter?

Emotional but lovely addition to the series, and the remastered looks so good!! Would recommend x

Games like Borderlands 3: guns that roll, trees that branch

Games like Borderlands 3 have to do two things at once: roll a new gun every few minutes and make a skill tree worth planning. These manage both, and one asks you to craft instead.
