Life is Strange 2

Life is Strange 2

*SPOILER* LiS2 and BtS. Deck Nine is Strange?
Most LiS fans believe the two studios that created this series games did not agree on many details of the game world.
In my opinion, the close cooperation between the two studios is evidenced, among other, by the many references in Life is Strange: Before the Storm (BtS). They point to LiS2, which at the time of BtS creation was not even announced.
Therefore, either DONTNOD shared early information about his game with Deck Nine, or at least one clairvoyant works at the American studio.

We find this information on Samuel's bookshelf. These three books are like a symbolic "LiS trilogy".
1. The first book clearly points to LiS and the first game of the series (Chaos Theory).

2. The connection of the second book to the series is slightly encrypted. This book is called Ignis Corvusque, which means "Raven and fire" in Latin. Having established it is "the book of BtS", it is necessary to answer the question: why is Latin used in the title?
This language serves to indicate the connection of the first two books with third.

3. The Latin is "bridging the gap" to The Pharsalia. Information about this epic poem and its author allows you to understand what will be the third LiS game.
The epic poem is about a real conflict between the citizens of a country. The author "lamenting the idea of Romans fighting Romans". "The Pharsalia was especially popular in times of civil wars and similar troubles; for example the editor of this 1592 edition, Pulmann, explains Lucan’s relevance by the French Wars of Religion (1562–98)".
In addition, the epic author (Lucan) was born in the territory of modern Spain. "Marcus Annaeus Lucanus, better known in English as Lucan, was a Roman poet, born in Corduba (modern-day Cordoba), in Hispania Baetica".
So, the third game of the LiS series, by the BtS information, should be associated with an actual political conflict and something Spanish.
We now know Samuel Taylor had accurate information about LiS2 long before the announcement.

The second indication of the future game is found on the wall of train in which Chloe and Rachel went to the park. These are the "hobo symbols" in which the beginning LiS2 storyline is encrypted. More about this is in the another topic:
https://www.reddit.com/r/lifeisstrange/comments/auo9bs/all_life_is_strange_2_before_the_storm_theory/

There is the third reference to DONTNOD's game in the same train: Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Think that there are millions of books can be found in a train... but it was the book about Finn that Chloe found.

So, there is tentative information about LiS2 general mood, storyline and heroes in BtS. I can't accept that it's all just coincidence. The idea of a psychic working for Deck Nine seems more plausible.

We remained motivated to discuss this series even over the course five Chloeless episodes. So I am optimistic about a future.
And if two studios can share data (or telepathic signals) about unannounced projects then may be information about the next Deck Nine game in LiS2.
Could it be a two-headed snowman, missing persons announcements, something else?
