Good Grief - Life is Strange Animatic

[@JR-pv9ry]

Binging this to cope with the Double Exposure situation. This depiction of Chloe is a lot more accurate than the one in that game.

[@olivergarden2645]

I especially love the detail in the beginning, where everyone leaves her; except for Rachel, who just disappears, because that's what she did, out of nowhere.

[@lunarose698]

Chloe is one of my all-time favorite characters. This shows her complexity as to why she is the way she is.

[@mauriciomongoy2025]

That's right. I really hate people throwing shit at her because her mean attitude. Sure she can be annoying sometimes, but come on, she lived in hell! She lost everyone she could care about. Her father. Her friends. If I went through all the things she did, I would also be depressed and angry with the world like her. That's why I love the comics and hate Double Exposure. We didn't need a sequel game, not that kind of sequel at least. I'm staying with the comics. Nathan got what he deserved, Chloe got closure and found love with Max. The perfect ending she deserved.

[@lunarose698]

@ Yeah that's true too. She was thinking of others in the end, which is something she never did before. And she doesn't get mad at Max for choosing the Bae ending.

[@KeiWufCosplay]

Yes… ppl say they want more complex or “realistic” characters.. but when they get Somone like Chloe or Caitlyn (from arcane) they can’t handle it.. it makes is sense and so confusing. You got want you wanted then hate on them

[@cookerbadbadge]

Imagine chloe hearing her phone ring and hoping it's Rachel and getting disappointed every single time

[@aidantalksfandom1489]

Ive heard people say that Chloe is toxic, but this animatic shows the real Chloe. Someone who has lost everything and everyone who matters to her and is struggling to deal with it.

[@DelfyDaun]

Doesn’t mean she isn’t toxic though

[@cafecomtodinho]

[@DelfyDaun]

Nothing to "BRUH" about. Hurt people hurt people.

[@cafecomtodinho]

@@DelfyDaun I just thought it was funny that some people think Chloe is toxic, I personally never thought of calling her that

[@strawberrycow-ub6uw]

​@@cafecomtodinho she is toxic. Chloe is the definition of "hurt people hurt people" whether it's intentional or not

[@rosanishelios]

This was absolutely incredible. Just from the introduction of Chloe losing those she loved I knew that you absolutely had a well-thought out plan for this. The set-up is literally insane. Anyone who's actually played the game can piece together everything because it flows so well. Your art brings out the memory of the exact scene you're showing and you somehow managed to summarize Chloe's journey of hope, loss, and betrayal so well in just over 3 minutes. I love this so much!! You did an amazing job!!

[@_moonsnail]

Thank you so muchhhhh! I have at least five pages of planning haha so I’m glad it game through:)

Oh my god i literally felt Chloes emotions and point of view! The chills i got! This is incredible!

[@laughsingay]

OUCH. MY HEART. But seriously I love this. I've seen a lot of Chloe hate and it's nice to see someone who empathizes and understands her character and how much she's been through. This animatic is beautiful

[@reeseamelia]

THIS DESERVES SO MUCH MORE HYPE THAN IT HAS IM OBSESSED, THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS INTO THE WORLD

[@MaxineTheBee]

I cannot describe the feeling I felt when I first watched it a month ago or so but I can say for sure it was something AMAZING I felt This animatic gave me the new favourite song at least and gave me the huge inspiration and the will to draw much more often to improve my skills at most It was STUNNING, I absolutely adore it, nice work!!!

[@Oliredwd9cm]

I love pricefield

[@Life_is_Strange24]

Istg I'm addicted to them😭💙✨️🦋

[@reeseamelia]

also can i say how cool that first hair transition was from chloe with max to chloe with rachel? THE SKILLS

[@luckygardenfrog]

HELLO?? YR ART STYLE?!?!?! This literally gave me goosebumps, the song choices the animations, the way YOU DREW THE CHARACTERS UGH!! IM INLOVE WITH THIS AND YR LITERALLY SO POWERFUL FOR MAKING THIS JUST W O W

[@burningxnecro]

This is beautiful. It really captures Chloe's character so well, all she lost and how much it hurt her. Though I hate the ending. BAE all the way, no one hurts our Chloe. And Double Exposure's insults to her are just so non-canon it hurts.

[@anyapls]

i stumbled upon this on my algorithm and im so glad i took a look. i feel so choked up by the flow and the detail of your work. i appreciate that you made amberprice intimate just as pricefield is bc both are important people to chloe; the progression of rachel’s disappearance; max in the part of the song that repeatedly says ‘what’s gonna be left of the world if you’re not in it? is a really neat foreshadowing; the foreboding sense of the storm coming shown in several transitions,,, theres so much little things you’ve put, so much love that’s taken my breath away as i watched. thank you so much for creating such a well thought out animation

[@Nitoryu37]

That was so good omfg, every "i miss you more" hit so hard

[@jooceebox]

This is soooo well put together! It feels like im reliving the game all over again 😭😭 it's stunning

[@StarGirlll590]

This is honestly breathtaking, the lyrics match each scene so perfectly and your art style is so beautiful

[@mikeundrr]

I relate to Chloe so much, when I thought that it wouldn't affect me when I played it but it did, all the things that she got to go through, her loved one passing away, her best friend leaving and coming back to our life that her didn't end long, a mother who loved another man and not accepting it, this literally happened to me and now i think that character is literally me in real life . Now I feel emotional by the whole game.

[@brandont5264]

Each time I watch this, I love it more and more, just like Life is Strange. You're a genius

[@maniacal1870]

It's 2024 and I'm still crying over these gorram characters. This was absolutely BEAUTIFUL. I've watched it probably a dozen plus times over the past 10 hours, I cannot get enough. Every scene, every moment and expression...it's perfect. The love, the agony, the heartache, you capture and time all of it perfectly. Thank you for this, seriously.

[@poto8s]

AUGH. i love this. this is gonna live rent free in my brain for a long time. i want to create something this amazing one day)

[@KeiWufCosplay]

A lot of ppl say Chloe was a bad person or max was a bad person here’s my opinion Chloe: she has abandonment issues from her dad passing then max moving away and then Rachel going missing.. she’s lost everything over and over and over.. she lost the person she loved twice.. and it’s left her with scars… this game is so relatable.. it hurts… and the way I relate to Chloe.. Max: she’s a sweet nerd that wanted to get away from this small town and explore her self more, and in doing so she left her best friend.. and Ik max never texted.. but I don’t think she knew how to text her or talk to her after all this time.. max went threw multiple reality’s to make things better for Chloe and to save her life.. just with this it shows how much max cares for Chloe and how much she loves her.. max saves Chloe.. and after this in DE Chloe and max broke up after all this.. which I hope we see why bc idk.. both characters have done bad things but both care for each other lots and are good ppl at heart

[@avarage_consumer5779]

[@hitrizdl]

Man this is that ONE game I have had my closest friends play (or played and they watched) just for the stories. Always had 'em do the Before the Storm part first. Seeing this, every time I have, has really gotten to me. I really believe you loved the game and the characters too. Loved all the bits you threw around (like some of the games most stunning graffiti moments you wonderfully meshed into this) and I love the transitions and beats mixed together. You say this took a whole summer and girl, I believe it. I absolutely admire everything about this. My wife and I both cried; normal for her but lord it isn't for me. I always felt doing Lif:BTS first helped make those stepping into it the first time really better understand and like Chloe. When I played the first game, as the episodes came out, I noticed my friends at that time had mixed or even negative feelings to Chloe. BTS gives us so much more AND rips our hearts out anew. XD Sorry, I am rambling. I think your work here shows what I wanted to say without knowing how to say it. I appreciate you sharing. (And I adore you for giving us a tiny glimpse of the 'Happy' ending as it was sweet and I wish we had gotten something in game XD). Please take care! Sorry for the mouthful. Brevity isn't my strong suit and my wife insisted I leave a comment. Rest assured, her own will likely be short but in all caps. XD

[@chickensoup1025]

Well now I'm sad (I love this)

[@awroolie]

I really, really love this animatic. I have loved this song for so many years and it has a special place in my heart that I can't even really describe. combined with life is strange, a game that permanently altered my brain chemistry, it made me cry. the way you pieced their story together while also fitting the lyrics of the song so perfectly is amazing. i'll be sending this animatic to anyone i know who has played LIS, and I hope that KZbin's algorithm will do that thing where it'll randomly promote years old videos so that this one can get the recognition it deserves.

And gosh- the different frames of the "I miss you" in the locker, the barn where she met Rachel, the bathroom where she dies, and the crow...god- it hurts- I never cried over the game before, but man- Chloe deserves so much more. She never deserved to be hurt, left behind like that.
