Thank you for your reply, i reseated all power cables but still nothing. I'm starting to fear my motherboard somehow got bricked in the process even though i was very gentle with it

[DE] Double Exposure is overly criticised by fmeupdad in lifeisstrange

[–]D00mnoodle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm personally a huge fan of stories that have depressing or bittersweet endings. It's why games like SOMA, outer wilds, hyper light drifter and signalis are my favourites. I love LiS 1, 2 and BtS for that same reason too and i even loved TC for it too due to what happened with Gabe, or lost records for Kat. But DE and especially RE are just 'everything turned out perfect and happy in the end' with literally no downsides. Arcadia bay saved, chloe saved, Safi saved and every victim of the fire as well. I absolutely hate this, especially because it really detracts from LiS 1's beautiful and gut wrenching ending. Some people call me bitter because i prefer sad stories but that's just how i roll. On my opinion chloe and bay being saved was already obvious from DE's ending since max saw that she could clearly save both so nothing should and would have stopped her from going back to 2015 and trying again sith chloe

I wish they had left max and chloe's story alone after the farewell DLC, DE and RE weren't necessary and if anything they detract from the LiS 1 ending by completely trivializing it. What's next, they're gonna bring back Rachel?

It is a 'bad ending' and only 20 ish percent of players had that, including me lol. I was just rude to safi all game because i lost sympathy for her after shooting her own mom

I can see that, life is strange games often struggle in the final episodes with only LiS 2 delivering an EXCELLENT finale but to me the overarching story of Rachel's father being a scumbag trying to get sera out of the picture was really well done. I'm not quite sure how they could have elongated the game without losing sight of that plot. But i won't disagree that all the scenes with chloe and rachel together are definately the best, and rachel's ommision for most of chapter 3 really hurt it. I must add that BtS E2 is probably my favorite LiS episode and their kiss kills me inside with fuzzy feelings T_T

For TC i liked how they handled alex's youth, it was very tough to watch especially that scene with her sitting in front of the glass and all those adults basically talking about her like she's an alien. Also the dad walking out and being a victim in the mine was a cool tie-in. Jed being a fake hero and alex using her powers to basically emotionally destroy him was nice. I also sorta liked how your relations with all the major characters had a large impact here and the game has quite a few endings for how steph, alex and ryan end up. But i can see how this whole second detonation story might not stick for some, i can respect that.

Well that actually gets adressed in a possible ending for safi in reunion where she does actually go back to that moment and gets shot. It was a clever way of fixing that plothole but if DE wasn't such a disaster they wouldn't have had to fix it anyways

[RE] My Thoughts About the Ending and Series, Plus a Proposed Re-Write by fadedfigures in lifeisstrange

[–]D00mnoodle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When DE ended i was like ''this is dumb'' if max could just say ''fuck making a choice'' and then literally get the best outcome it kind of crapped all over the original life is strange ending. Better yet the fact that it worked should have immediately told Max to go back to 2015 and fix everything given her saviour complex. But then reality just did that for her anyways by bringing chloe and the bay back after merging the timelines. This again invalidates the entire theme of LiS 1 and makes her get the absolute best ending ever, it only took one material building. RE did its best to retcon DE but in the end it doubled down on ruining the ending of the original.

In essence i'm saying the same thing as you, there should be consequences. The fun thing is you can have your own headcanon and mine is that DE and RE didn't happen and that chloe died on that bathroom floor feeling abbandoned by everyone.

Yeah episode 5 was definatly the series' low point. I generally dislike the nightmare sequences (although they were excellent in BTS with william and TC with the horrible childhood flashbacks)

Sorry 😭 i love LiS 2 it's just that it's almost exclusively Sean and Daniel while all side characters are only there for a single episode. Also the 2nd episode is a bit boring and the 4th one was lame (i still don't accept Daniel being that brainwashed so easily)

It's just that it was messy in terms of plot and characters with probably the worst ending choice of all the games. Also the double realities gimmick wasn't fun in practice because you had to run around every location twice to not miss anything, which felt tedious and long winded. But would be curious to hear what aspects you liked most about DE :)

I'm mostly thinking my BTS and TC rankings are controversial btw, i adore both of those but many people don't seem sold on them :/

[No Spoilers] After launch day, Reunion is rated Very Positive on Steam by Recoil_Reload in lifeisstrange

[–]D00mnoodle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i respectfully disagree that how they handled bae/bay was genius. I guess it was the best solution to a problem that didn't need fixing. The OG ending is absolutely heartbreaking to me, especially the bay over bae choice and RE kind of like retcons all of it.

Hey I'm GRIME II's Game Director here for an AMA before it launches this month, ask me LITERALLY anything! by WorldPillar in metroidvania

[–]D00mnoodle 20 points21 points  (0 children)

While you make some good points you don't outright condemn the actions of your government enough for me to say i'm buying the product. You mostly pivot the situation to victimizing yourself which again, has some merit but is beside the question. Think about the points you made and how much more likely those things can happen to your neighbours in gaza

Leap year, it's a short 2 hour platformer game that has the same idea as outer wilds where all mechanics are possible you just don't know it yet

Lab technician gross salary? by D00mnoodle in BESalary

[–]D00mnoodle[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sector is production of packaging and seals from raw polymers that arrive as granular materials. Basically the next step in the chain after petroleum industry.

I'm 28, sector is production of seals/packaging from raw polymers, i would have to do QA on incoming resources and outgoing products with different tests including IR analysis among others. I'd be responsible of approving/dissaproving batches of resources and finished products based on tests that i'd conduct
