Hello everyone and welcome to a pros and
0:03
cons of the video game Life is Strange
0:06
Reunion on Not Now Mom, I am Gaming.
0:10
These are short videos featuring all my
0:11
little nitpicks and pleasantries with
0:13
having played the game while sustaining
0:14
a bare minimum of spoilers. Let the
0:17
reviewing begin.
0:19
Rose, Chloe is back.
0:23
>> It is so incredibly good to see you,
0:26
Chloe.
0:28
Don't get excited. I come bearing
0:30
baggage.
0:33
>> How long has it been? Way too long. I
0:36
mean, Chloe got her big debut in one
0:38
other game, aside from the first that we
0:40
met her in, if I remember correctly.
0:42
God, it's so good to see her again and
0:45
hear her edgy type of humor. Though, she
0:47
doesn't seem exactly warm to the idea of
0:49
coming back and seeing Max again, so I
0:52
was a little iffy on how it would play
0:53
out for the two of them. Still, I always
0:56
did like Chloe more than Max.
0:59
Scenic environments.
1:01
It's just a shame that you can't capture
1:03
everything on your camera, but you can
1:05
of course always screenshot these
1:07
marvelous scenes. And they really are
1:10
beautiful to stare out into when you're
1:12
given them and gone almost all too soon.
1:15
Indie rock soundtrack.
1:18
The odds are stuck against us, friend.
1:26
As per usual, Life is Strange has the
1:28
most chill soundtrack that you can just
1:30
vibe to when you're sitting in random
1:31
locations and listening to it. Not to
1:34
mention, you get to take in the
1:35
environment around you while listening
1:36
to the music for as long as you want.
1:39
Though, this game does allow for you to
1:41
choose a different soundtrack for the
1:42
game so as not to get copyright claimed,
1:44
I believe.
1:46
Cons: Loretta is a me personality.
1:52
You do know something.
1:55
You have a lot more going on than meets
1:56
the eye, don't you? I'm not going
1:59
anywhere until you tell me what's up. I
2:01
didn't like Loretta when she first came
2:03
into the picture because she was always
2:04
snooping and trying to throw Max under
2:06
the bus for brownie points and to
2:08
enhance her podcast.
2:10
Well, she's exactly the same in this
2:12
game. She wants to talk and help only
2:14
when it's going to benefit her in the
2:16
end.
2:18
Some choices seem the same.
2:21
At times they'll give you two choices to
2:23
make and sometimes the wording for them
2:25
are the exact same despite being written
2:27
differently and it makes it really
2:29
confusing on which one to choose because
2:31
clearly there's going to be two
2:33
different responses given whichever one
2:34
you choose. I just wish devs who make
2:38
choices matter games distinguish two
2:40
choices from each other more clearly.
2:43
Don't understand a brais.
2:46
>> So what's going on with a brais these
2:49
days? Seriously, where do you even
2:51
start? We were evicted from our house.
2:54
The administration is threatening to
2:56
disband us. And our leadership is in
2:59
shambles.
3:02
It's a secret society, but everyone
3:04
knows about it. Wouldn't that make it
3:06
not a secret society? Wouldn't that make
3:09
it more of a secretive society more than
3:11
anything else? And people act like they
3:14
just can't up and leave it if things are
3:15
getting too hectic for them there. Do
3:18
they swear themselves in like some kind
3:19
of blood oath or what? And why do people
3:22
cling so hard to this society anyway
3:24
when it's more like a club that people
3:26
have parties and meetings in and such?
3:28
It's just weird to me.
3:32
Some bugs.
3:34
There were only a couple bugs I
3:35
encountered. One where the game crashed
3:37
entirely after making an important
3:39
choice, which had me laughing at the
3:41
irony of it choosing that moment to do
3:43
so. and another when I completed a
3:46
section, but the voice lines for it were
3:47
still happening in the background. It
3:50
stabled after cutting to another scene,
3:52
but I couldn't get very far anyway with
3:54
the lines and what it wanted me to do.
3:57
Never really had a relationship.
4:00
I chose to not go the romance route for
4:02
one of the characters, and that's all
4:03
fine and dandy, but for everyone else, I
4:06
did choose a romance route. While
4:08
playing the game, everyone felt like
4:10
they were holding Max at a certain
4:12
distance and didn't hold a lot of
4:14
interest toward her. Like with Vin,
4:17
according to Max, they were more on
4:19
again, off again, rather than any kind
4:21
of real relationship. And he never
4:23
really seemed like he was genuinely
4:25
happy to see and talk to her of all the
4:26
times he did. So, I don't know. Chloe
4:30
was the only real romance character for
4:32
me in the end. And with having so many
4:34
options available, it didn't really feel
4:36
like romance was really here for us.
4:39
And that's the end of a pros and cons
4:41
review of Life is Strange: Reunion.
4:44
Thanks for watching, everyone, and don't
4:45
get in too much trouble when you say,
4:47
"Not now, Mom. I'm gaming.
