I've played all the LIS games and have been a fan of the series since the original released while I was in college.

For me, I think my ranking of the games is as followed:

  1. Before the Storm
  2. Life is Strange
  3. Life is Strange 3
  4. Life is Strange 2

Not including Captain Spirit because it's really more of a companion title and so short. It's a really close tie for me between the original LiS & LiS 3, as I really enjoyed both.

Before the storm was such a surprise for me and I really enjoyed the way they developed the characters & romance in that title, which makes it stand out for me.

Despite my love & enjoyment of the series, I really couldn't get into LiS 2. I played the whole game, but I struggled my way through it. I did not like the characters or the plot, and only finished it out of a hope that the ending would be worth it.

  1. LiS 1
  2. BtS
  3. LiS 2
  4. TC

I do think true colors is the most refined and well written entry, but the vibe of the Arcadia Bay games is just unmatched

Very true, Arcadia Bay is such a great setting.

But I also really enjoyed the setting of True Colors, as well as the characters & story. I really liked Alex as a protagonist and her powers were interesting/different compared to the previous games.

I haven't seen much in terms of rumors about Life is Strange 4 yet but I'll certainly be playing it regardless, whenever it comes out.

The Life is Strange franchise is an award-winning franchise that is set out to revolutionize story-based choice and consequences games. While incorporating supernatural elements such as powers, the core elements of the franchise created by Don't Nod are the presentation of authentic, relatable characters and relationships as well as tackling real world social issues or complicated subjects (such as loss, grief, depression, bullying, racism, drug use and suicide), and raising awareness for these.

Rules

  1. Be cool. No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia etc.

  2. Mark spoilers and NSFW
