Worth a buy ? (please no spoiler)

[Purge this city]

I thoroughly enjoyed LiS 1 and LiS before the storm and both their remasters.

Is it worth to buy this game now or should I wait for sale?

[peter4i4ik]

No, this game is abuse of old good LIS1 by its content, and less interesting gameplay as old good game.

Depends on how much you want to play a game with Max as the main character again, with a slightly disappointing ending

It doesn't hold a candle to any of the other LIS games, especially with the steep price tag. It felt shorter, less polished and the story is honestly not very good. If you loved the previous LIS games, it's almost a sure shot you'll feel disappointed by this one.

Also you could notise that
Yep, lots of features, presented in promo/teaser, were in game just once only in the one scene what was shown, so promo was highly deceptively

[eme d☆ll!]

If you loved Max, absolutely. If you are an annoying Chloe fan, then no.

You should try it and make up your own mind !
You should play Life is strange 2, it's excellent.

From other side, you should not invest in "bad style" of story creation, or else there will be more content with this "bad style" if it succeed in sales.

If you ask me, the best possible option is to simply watch a commentary free playthrough online and judge for yourself.

That being said, though....

I enjoyed both LiS 1 and Before the Storm. However, the game has a few caveats that have prevented me from buying it right now, namely:

- highest priced LiS game on launch ($80 is insane for a game that has its physical Collector's Edition completely separate from the so called "Ultimate Edition")
- presence of Denuvo
- shockingly steep system requirements for playing higher than 1080p
- poor optimization, and no DLSS options available at launch
- no patch at the time of this post that has resolved the bugs, proved better optimization, and removed Denuvo

wait until denuvo is removed

[MinyMeep1]

I agree with the other person if you cant afford buying it just wait for denuvo to be removed... but like would I say its worth getting ASAP... Ehh nah.

[Purge this city]

Thanks all, guess I will save my money and put it all on red instead. Waiting for sale

Play LIS2... But this one is not worth 59$. 10h of gameplay... few choices that matters... They tried to replucate some moments from LIS1 but kinda failed. The characters are not good. I don't care about Chloe btw. But there was a murder mystery, a whole traffic of girls... In the LIS2 you have to helps brothers escape and your choices truely impact your little brother. But in this one, you dont really matter and the plot is a bit... meh. Not that impressive and kinda messy

[[KäPy] Switch 2 LETS GO]

its $42 on humble bundle store where I bought it

[P1nkLem0n4d3]

The special editions, definitely not.

The standard game, depends on how much you want to play it.

Yeah it is worth playing,
