Lots more to come!! Working on thoughts & theory videos now. Let me know if there's anything you'd like me to address here in the comments!

40:44 "There's new characters, just get to know them" I really wish more fans would feel this way, so many places I look it just feels like most fans only care about whether Chloe is in the game or not and want to immediately write off the new characters.

[@PlayingWithHeart]

Right?!?! I think so many people are just fearful the ideas they've had for 10yrs are going to get taking away. I get it... but I wish more would be open like you!

[@ajbratley9082]

just like before the storm had a lot of new characters!! every new lis is going to have new characters to add different dynamics. i don't know why so many people hate on characters we've never really met.

[@brightamiii]

literally! like i understand wanting chloe to be mentioned and for her and max’s story to be respected but like,,, is it that bad to wanna see max shine on her own for a while, away from chloe? 😭 i think these new characters have a lot of potential, i really like them so far. i think people also forget that the original game wasn’t solely fixated on chloe. max had so many friends throughout that game, like kate, warren, dana, alyssa, stella etc… like max is probably in her late twenties in this game, chloe can’t be the ONLY meaningful friendship she has.

[@finn3551]

I like that they gave Max a Final Fantasy outfit. It seems like a random choice at first, but in the first game, Max referenced final fantasy spirits within

[@PlayingWithHeart]

Ya I agree! I'm not personally into Final Fantasy, but I think it makes total sense for Max

[@Squigi]

It's under Square Enix after all lol

[@empatheticdevil875]

​@@Squigioohhh yeah

[@99mariana]

Your excitement in the first few minutes made me genuinely smile 😂💞

[@kainan613]

Whooo the excitement is palpable. This was such a nice surprise the other day. Really enjoyed the reveal stream too. Super excited to play this

[@PlayingWithHeart]

Right?!? Such a surprise!!

[@MiddletonPlays]

Loved your reaction! I loved the deep dive! I'm definitely pre-ordering but I usually do that a month before the game releases! I've been craving another Life Is Strange game for a while! The story seems really interesting! The graphics are beautiful! The music sounded amazing! The facial animations look really good!

[@lilzachary74]

omg i love your reaction! always so just! actually what we learned here gives me hope! maybe your good mood is partly responsable lol

[@PlayingWithHeart]

Yay!! I think there are so many positives we can expect here, for sure. Will it be perfect? Probably not because everyone's perfect is a little different, and we're all so close to the idea of the rest of the story. But... I think there will be a lot we can appreciate no matter what happens 🥰

[@asalrajabzade38]

i can't decide whether that emergency broadcast was from past or future BUT I'm very sure that voice calling out Max in 49:05 was definitely Chloe. she sounded so much like Chloe i can't-. and another thing I'd like to point out is that Safi's mom (and even Safi herself) looks so much like that homeless lady from LIS1. the first time i had this theory i thought it was really far fetched but when Max said Safi's mom pulled strings to get max into the university, I'm getting vibes that maybe it's not that out of place. and she seems like a very important character as well.

[@PlayingWithHeart]

Ya agreed! That emergency broadcast is sooo curious. I'm thinking it's from the tornado that got broadcast in the town. I totally feel like that was Chloe and Max's reaction to "causing this" but it's soooo interesting...

[@asalrajabzade38]

@@PlayingWithHeart omg yes! This being a flashback makes so much sense. BUT at the same time i keep thinking maybe it's a prediction? I mean with all that talk about meteors I'm getting the feeling this time a tornado is not gonna attack the town but rather meteor 💀💀

[@PlayingWithHeart]

@@asalrajabzade38 I don't disagree!! I think time is gonna get all jumbled up for sure...

[@your_galaxies]

​@@PlayingWithHeart Did you hear about how Max and Chloe (assuming it is her based on context) rerecorded their lines for the storm lines when Max fainted? Hannah Telle made it sound so close to her 18yr old self that I didn't even question it until someone put the lines side-by-side

[@NerdsPsychoticInterlude]

I’m so excited for new content from you from this game!! :)

[@stolenflamingo]

Wow!!!! This game looks gorgeous! 😍😍😍 I seriously can’t wait! I am looking forward to see you play this once it comes out. 😄

[@Dead-fire]

OH SHOOT, I MISSED IT LIVE 😭😭😭 But anyways, 49:03 I swear if it’s another Arcadia bay sacrifice choice I will not be okay

[@curhuna]

Let's go! Time for some branch exploration on the different routes. I think she'll eventually have to choose which world she'll want/need to keep I highly doubt it'll be stable if both worlds are present, but that seems too simple? They'll probably go for a different approach, it'll be exciting to see and speculate about, can't wait to see your playthroughs when this comes out in October!

[@PlayingWithHeart]

Yessssss!!!! Already thinking about how much flowcharts and spreadsheets are going to be set up lol. I agree, something just like that would be too simple, but a complex version with another twist... maybe 😁

[@stitchfan08]

I hope we hear what happened to other characters from the first game like we did in life is strange 2 like for me in my ending I heard David talking about Nathan like he could be getting out of jail because I think he made a deal with the police to put Jefferson in jail

[@PlayingWithHeart]

Me too! I really want little tidbits too!

[@RosePosiepuddingpie]

Oh..oh that could be interesting. A return of Nathan depending on the ending you chose...

[@JayLaliberte-xs3ky]

Max's powers are explained in the non cannon comics as well.

[@brookecollins8685]

I have a fear that mark jefferson is going to return from a different timeline

[@PlayingWithHeart]

... I may or may not have the same thought...

[@ileee1]

Okay Okay... First of all so far I love all the characters. I'm taking a wild guess that Safi is/was just a friend. Power is interesting I feel like with my brains memory capacity I need to take notes all the time becouse this will get out of hand and will get out of hand quickly. Big question is, is that emercency broadcast a flashback to the storm or is it something new and more importantly is the storm still having an effect on these timelines (even if you chose bay over bae?), is it even causing these shifts? I'm so interested to see where this story goes... I know the summer just startted but october can't come soon enough...

[@ileee1]

and interesting thing abaut Chloe is how open has Max been abaut her sexuality? Becouse Safi asked abaut Chloe like she knew that there is more than just friendship. interesting to see do we choose everything we've done in the conversation or do we choose more than just the Bay or Bae at the begining?

[@ileee1]

But good thing is they have heard fanbase also (-chloe but I have a feeling if you took Bae over Bay there is gonna be some sort of cameo besides what we've seen.) They wanted clearly create something ambitious on the masterpiece that was the original LIS

[@PlayingWithHeart]

Yes!! Same. The characters all seem great. Great personalities! The size of the Notes doc is REAL! So, so, so many questions still!!!

[@kainan613]

I had some immediate issues to her new appearance, change is scary and all. But having seen the gameplay twice now, I really love new Max, appearance and acting all

[@PlayingWithHeart]

Yes! I felt the same way just after I saw the trailer for the first time. Then after rewatching a bunch + livestream, I fell in love too!

[@westonpierce952]

Just know I’ve watched this video more than 10 times

[@emilyvlogging6102]

After reading deeper into the romance options it seems like the devs wanted the love interest to be the girl, but the publishers fought to have the male love interest as well. From what everyone has said about the guy it seems like the best choice is the sweet girl instead of the "Nathan Prescott like a-hole".

[@dannyleedawber]

I'm so happy Max is back like OMG I can't wait to play this game

[@Artbien342]

Now Elijah needs to reacts to this 😢

[@dragonballradiant2744]

I’m a little scared that Jefferson found his way out of one of those other realities. I hope not though.

[@PlayingWithHeart]

... I have a similar fear!!

[@SeinIshamiado]

48:54 Why are you getting angry at her? She just wanted another picture and didn't know it wouldve happened again?

[@PlayingWithHeart]

Oh I wasn't really angry. I was just being a silly dramatic!

[@SeinIshamiado]

@@PlayingWithHeart oh okay!!! :o

[@RosePosiepuddingpie]

Honestly, I'm okay with chloe not being important in this game. Personally, even if Max chooses Chloe, i didn't see their relationship lasting, romantic or platonic. I adored Chloe, i do, but how she treated max was eventually going to come to a head, plus the guilt max would then have to live with, that they both have to live with, that could drive them apart.
