Previous Thread: Life is Strange is an episodic interactive drama from DONTNOD Entertainment. Set in the Pacific Northwest in the town of Arcadia Bay, the player follows the story of Maxine Caulfield and her seemingly newfound ability to turn hella gay and rewind time. At the prestigious Blackwell Academy, Max must prepare with Chloe Price for the incoming storm of returning to her hometown after five years. Available on Steam, PSN and Xbox Live.

Jayden Perry
Let's all just be happy for Molli! I trust her judgement and even if we don't like Destiny-Smasher's story (In fact, I strongly dislike it) that doesn't mean he's a bad person.
Austin Sanchez
Sorry user but I just can't be Mr.Brightside like you.We are talking about that guy afterall.

Tyler White
Can you all just resume cuteposting about the game and stop being so concerned with my love-life? Seriously, I only ever wanted to keep a low profile, post some doodles, rant about the endings.. I don't want this kinda drama clogging up the threads. Also it's.. sorta bloody depressing to see people being so hostile towards someone I care about so much.
Matthew Lewis
The more he talks the more he makes me cringe.
Nolan Williams
You go it! I too would hate to see this kind of stuff fill up the thread and ruin all we've built up. Enough generals here are plagued by bullshit personal arguments and drama. Let's keep our lives (And the lives of others) and /lisg/ separate.
Dylan Martinez
you wanna end up this fucking drama? tell him to shut the fuck up,go the fuck away with his fucking blogshitting then

Congrulations. You better tell us what do people do during a foursome next time you visit here.
Adam Fisher
It's one person. Two at most. Trust me. Ignore.
Know that most here are happy for you and that's that. No reason to further look into it, or into Smasher.
They posted it at the very end of the thread; YOU could have just ignored it and not brought it up here.
Jordan Thompson
>Two at most Sure thing
Angel Anderson
Max is adorkable!

Anons. -Please- stop. Just post about LiS. Do not ruin things by being petty, vindictive, or needlessly confrontational. This is not the Vortex Club.

Connor Wright
Cute picture. The view out the window is interesting though. Looks like it's high up and in the middle of the woods. But that gives me an idea of Joyce opening a restaurant on the cliff looking out to the sea. That could be really nice.
Noah Morales
I've read that Prescott was actually some kind of benevolent family in that area in real life? Between the bunkers and Pan Estates, maybe Sean's "Enema" plan all along was to Make Arcadia Great Again.
People sought shelter in the Prescott bunkers during the storm, and afterward the great rebuilding began.
Kayden Garcia
You are always against the people who are against the blog-shitting,who love embarassing themselves and sends irrelevant posts endlessly on this general (not to mention he is still posting on the old thread)
And no faggot I know it hurts you to know that but there are more than two anons who are agreeing with this
Ian Rogers
4chans still Veeky Forums i see
least some people here are nice
more cute less hate plz
Asher Morris
I think Sean knew that a storm was coming and built bunkers (Including the Dark Room) for his family and associates. They wanted Arcadia Bay to be wiped off the map so that they could control the land and build on it. Jefferson was an accomplice and he wanted the storm to come so that he could escape and evidence of his crimes would be washed away. But Max, the power, and possibly even Rachel stepped in and put a stop to that. To expose the Prescott in an inescapable way, and to bring Jefferson to justice. The storm itself was neither good or bad, it was just a weather event and how the aftermath was handled is what is good/bad. Would it be to allow destruction and give the Prescotts total control? Or would it be used as a chance to give Arcadia Bay another chance?

Ayden Anderson
Now you're being more annoying and doing nothing other than shit-stirring,foursome faggot. Thanks for proving me right btw
Jordan Nguyen
This is also why Nathan was under extreme pressure. Being told his family "has a destiny" and that the town was going to be washed away. Nathan wanted to protect his friends, but also make Jefferson happy, was battling his own insanity and maybe even had his own visions of what was coming (Such as the trailer for Episode 4). An already sick boy having more and more pressure put on him. No wonder he was unstable.

>people didn't like my fic :( >people are still hating me :( >people didn't like I actually having relationship with someone :( >so I should do something to attract their attentions :( this is a video game general retard. not for faggots who got butthurt so bad
Easton Richardson
Prescott is a somewhat common surname. Just doing a Google Search for "Prescotts Oregon" came up with an apartment in Portland and a town named after a Sawmill owner (There was also a sawmill/ lumberyard in Arcadia Bay) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prescott,_Oregon
It seems like the name chosen for people by Dontnod did have some relevance to the area. Or there's stuff like Max's name which comes from other fictional works. Little stuff like that makes for neat details and trivia.

You went to their tumblr. Read their "personal" posts. Brought them back here (after complaining in 20 posts about people bringing actual LiS content from reddit here). 'Nuff said? No, with you it's never enough said.
I think the more (or less) vague involvement of the Prescotts that dontnod did have in mind must have been malevolent. Same for the tornado. In the end they rely on saying those all serve narrative purposes above all... So I don't know how much conclusive background there really ever was to how they thought it would work together. But I'd like to think Rachel was more involved with it all, even the Prescotts somehow through Nathan. If only because it would make for cool prequel-sequel material.

I am asking one more time, stop arguing or bringing shit up from other sites. Everyone in this argument is being butthurt and childish. I don't care who is posting here: fic writers, Michel, Luc, or even Max fucking Caulfield (Hi Max!) as long as they are staying on topic and not starting fights for no reason, I don't see why there's a problem. We don't have names or points systems here so dick-waving is entirely pointless and will just kill the general and destroy what we've created.
If you have personal gripes/hatred then take them to Tumblr or wherever where you can have your pissing match on your own blogs. Just please stop arguing here and introducing the same shit that has killed other generals.
This is the end of the discussion.

Mason Smith
If that faggot stops his blogshitting,everything will be fine.
Leo Johnson
I agree. I think Rachel played a crucial part in a lot of it. Especially when it comes to why Max specifically got the power to rewind time. Or why Max was getting visions of the storm. Don't forget that the doe appeared in a storm vision and she was watching Max. It's Rachel giving Max a hint of what is coming. I don't think Rachel herself was anything magical during life. But after she died she gained some power and influence. Maybe from the bloodoath Frank took or maybe just because she has some association to the Natives of that land.
However, I do not know what was going on with Nathan. He may have been the key to something, or he could have just been an ill boy trapped in a hole that was digging himself deeper and deeper. There was a lot of vagueness because it wasn't necessary for the story they were trying to tell, but as you said that vagueness opens up so many possibilities, interpretations, and potential for more tales.
Logan Long
>arguing over ((four))some tumblrina attention whores agreed.
Joshua Green
Here's hoping we never end up like /kspg/ Identityfagging is the root of all evil
Jace Powell
They're just jelly
Mason Lopez
Pretty much my thoughts. Rachel specifically albeit being both a malevolent and benevolent force beyond her death, in my mind. But it could be different, and there's a lot of substance in that I could see in a sequel.
Either way, while the story they were trying to tell does indeed not revolve around magic and the supernatural of it all but uses them as narrative devices instead, magical realism and all that jazz, it still was kind of a letdown not to get anything at all out of it. Not least because in the end they didn't really manage to conclude the actual narrative in a satisfying way either, of course.
I can only hope the vagueness was deliberate with regards to a second season, not due to sheer lack of throught-process and background. ...Well, it sure seems the latter is the more likely, but maybe they'll manage to write themselves into something that manages to establish that background regardless. If they do re-visit Arcadia, that is.
A second season is pretty much assured to have entirely new characters and be in a different location. So it seems that all the vagueness and plot holes of S1 will only be filled in by our own minds and discussions rather than any 'canon' installment. Which means the background plot and characters are almost entirely unwritten and can been seen however one wants; If so many other people didn't know Rachel, I may have said she really was an angel sent to Chloe. The series (Whenever it's actually made) might show some different stuff but even then I don't think we'll ever know who, or what, Rachel or Nathan truly are. Or that we will see a post-storm Arcadia Bay. Honestly I don't think I mind that. The story was about Max and Chloe and how they grew and came together over the week. That story was told and the future is full of possibilities for them and the other characters. If every little thing were explained then there would be nothing to talk about.
Christopher Miller
after all that molli has done for us it's fucked up that any of you would return the favour like this. Just leave her be.
Andrew Reed
I just got back to this general after a few days. What the FUCK on is going on?
Justin White
Nobody's angry at her. Problem is foursome sympathizer and his butthurt attitude towards this general
Jose Howard
I can also more than live with Max and Chloe's story being finished for good. It really is too, essentially. Anything beyond this would only disturb. At least most likely so.
There's still the faint possibility that they will revisit "Arcadia" though. The only thing they have repeatedly gone on the record for is that "Max and Chloe's story is finished". It's true that a prequel-sequel is unlikely, but I still vaguely hope it will be something along those lines.
Not even because it would then reveal those backgrounds, or be able to give some kind of closure for any side or subplots. But because it would lend a fundament to a new character story that I could still be excited and make theories about and so on. As in that case, all our theorizing wouldn't have been in vain. It would be easier to give dontnod another chance because then the first season's mysteries won't have been mere narrative bait or betrayal of trust in their ability to tell a story.
Luke Fisher
Shut the fuck up about it already, god fucking damn it.
Robert Scott
I want to see Arcadia Bay again but without any commitment to one set of actions. Especially when most players and much of Dontnod seem to think the Bay ending was right/good. But without beating that dead horse any further, I think the best way to continue to explore the area would be to look to the past. Set the next season in the 1980s or 90s. You can see some of the same people (Although younger) and explore more supernatural or realistic elements.

Pretty sad stuff. Sorry to see everyone get so wound up about what's being going on. And quite disappointed. I hope and believe the silent majority are not bullies and shitstirrers.

You say that but there were posts saying for both of them to go die which means Molli which makes it really fucked up.
Oliver Russell
I think you have to be on the spectrum to sacrifice Chloe in the end
Josiah Morris
Isn't she despised here? All I've ever seen about her in the months I've been here is copypasta and screencaps shitting on her.
Christian Barnes
>See a tornado vision before all of these fuckery,before you find out you can actually go back into time >In the end you find out going back into time/overuse power is what caused the storm >So one of option is we can fix this shit only if we go back into time and doing absolutely nothing while originally we were supposed to using our powers in the first place Looks like Imagination Lord has hypnotized all of them
Glad that based Luc didn't take this bullshit
Matthew Davis
nah most of people was shitting on tumblr guy not Molli
Benjamin Taylor
You're thinking of Mari.
Dylan Jackson
Most, sure but it was sad to see even one person shitting on Molli, she doesn't deserve it.
Mason Walker
>even one person can you show me that post?
Gabriel Baker
here: both of these are the same person judging from their edgy and angry writing style though. Don't want to sift through the rest of the posts and see if there's more people.
Liam Lopez
Well they're not wrong about blogspam ruining the thread, abbraisive as they are
Tyler Rivera
That is not the point at all, I'm talking about the abuse towards Molli, she has done nothing to warrant bullying or any sort of cruelty towards her.
Juan Butler
even though his wording is wrong (making fun of people's sexuality) he has a point about him ''blogshitting'' also looks like he is shitting on tumblr guy's posts,molli's just got lost in the shuffle

user, no worries: That user was only insulting and wishing death upon Smasher and me. Not Molli. I don't think so.
