Do you have any controversial life is strange opinions?:)

The fact that I like Nathan Prescott is probably controversial enough in this fandom, but...

I like Max and Chloe as best friends more than lovers. Which leads to the next one where...

I think, despite the toxicity that is there initially, that Rachel and Chloe make the better couple.

I get why he does for some, but for me, Warren doesn't creep me out. He just strikes me as very forward with a shaky confidence, and can be inappropriate and awkward to boot.

I feel like Warren needs more exploration of his character, too, since he gets treated even worse than Nathan--in and out of the fandom. Which is an...amazing feat, to say the least, imo. He's hardly in any promotional material, his voice actor never seems to be asked to come back for interviews and/or podcasts, etc. Idk. It makes me sad, because, to me, his character is clearly meant to be a potential love interest for Max, just without the proper balance given like it is with Chloe.

After years of thinking, growing, and changing opinions, I don't think the polarizing ending of the first game is bad anymore. Not as bad as many think, that is. Of course, the name of the chapter itself is "Polarized"--a play on words, and a hint towards the grueling decision for the end. But I think it works for the structure and themes the developers are trying to present in the game. I don't think there's a right or wrong ending, but an ending where Max finally has to face the consequences of her actions, of leaving the past behind and going on to an uncertain future. No matter what she chooses, she can't have it all. Anyway... I thought I'd share a link to a video that explains it in the same way I think instead of putting a huge ass paragraph here if anyone's interested in seeing it how I see it.

Other than a few moments of interesting character development, I think Before the Storm is a pointless existence of a game. No hate on Deck Nine or their team--it looks pretty, and it gave us Steph and Mikey and Samantha--but otherwise it's feels like a fanfiction that became an official game with a lot of inconsistencies that didn't add enough or were a poor "prequelization" with the existing canon. However, I do think Deck Nine made up for it with True Colors lol.

[Insert meme here] Life is Strange 2 is good, y'all are just mean. But, seriously, I get it, it's a depressing sad-fest of a game for the most part, but it's not any less of a story worth telling. There are imperfect aspects to it, but I think people are delusional if they don't think the same for the others just because it doesn't have female/lesbian leads or they think it's "too political." If anything, I just wish we got more of Captain Spirit, Finn, and Cassidy lol. And my girl, Lyla.

Ryan is just as important as Steph and deserves just as much love. Not sure if this is controversial, really, but I'm saying it anyway. Fav. male character by far right next to Gabe and Sean Diaz.

After consideration, I don't think Jed's turn-of-heel in character in True Colors was done poorly. We've seen it before with Jefferson, sure, but this time it was done well and had a backstory that made sense in context instead of it being out of nowhere accompanied by a badly-utilized red herring. It would have been interesting to see what the shadowy Typhon corporation was doing behind everyone's backs, for sure, but it would have deterred from the small community we have gotten to know (and suspect) in the long run. And it really goes to show how much pressure can be put on a single community, a single person, in order to keep their lives comfortable and avoid the hard truth.

The LARP in True Colors was perfection. Don't bother trying to change my mind, naysayers.

The comics aren't as bad as I initially thought, but they still lack a lot that would make people interested outside of the "Bae" ending.
