Life Is Strange 2

I know the second game has far fewer fans than the first, and I get why. It has a different pace, different characters. There’s less Twin Peaks and more real America. It gets a lot of criticism, but I want to praise it instead. Maybe even overlook some of its rough edges, because Life is Strange 2 is a unique experience I genuinely want to recommend to everyone.
The story doesn’t hold back. It starts in warmth, in the comfort of a loving family. But within minutes, everything falls apart. Safety becomes a memory, replaced by the road — long, dangerous, and filled with impossible choices. The emotional weight doesn’t build by episode — it builds by the second. At some point, you think: that’s it, this is rock bottom. And then the game hits harder.
This isn’t just a story about brothers, the road, or superpowers. It’s about humanity, about choices, and the cost of kindness. There are no perfect answers. There’s just you, your little brother, and a world that isn’t always willing to make space for you. And all you have is each other.
One of the game’s biggest strengths is its visual style. It’s rougher, less “cozy-vintage” than the first one. But that’s intentional. The scenery keeps shifting — forests, deserts, makeshift shelters, strangers’ homes. Everything’s constantly in motion, just like the characters. Sometimes it’s bleak, sometimes stunningly beautiful. In those landscapes, you can feel the loneliness, the running, but also life, raw and real.
The music? Pure love. Every song is carefully chosen and hits just right. You’ll want to play them on repeat. They wrap around the atmosphere perfectly, right when they need to.
The gameplay is quiet, unobtrusive — it lets you truly step into the role of an older brother who isn’t just surviving, but teaching someone else how to live. That’s the core of it: you’re not just choosing dialogue. You’re shaping a personality, a moral compass, a child’s response to a brutal world. And because of that, the consequences hit differently — they feel like your responsibility.
Life is Strange 2 isn’t a perfect game. It has its flaws — some episodes drag, some plot twists feel abrupt. But even so, it deserves love. If nothing else, because every ending leaves you with a lesson that matters.

Life is Strange 2 is a tale of two brothers whose life is turned upside-down at the some point of their lives and they had to stay together to survive. You can be a good brother or a bad brother, you can be a friend to him or act like a parent. Your choices matter.
This game brings a lot of story with character development contents, great graphics and enjoyable soundtrack. You should play this, it's good. I don't know why some people that adored the first one are cold on this, but it's just as good.

Wow... just wow... The first game was one of the best story-driven games I've ever played (and I'm still strong on that point) but mannn this game was just something else. This is genuinely one of the best games that I have played EVER. It was just a roller coaster of emotions and I loved every bit of it. To see how fast somebody's life can change and how you can lose everything in just a blink of an eye made me realize that I shouldn't take things for granted. This game actually gave me a different perspective on life. It will for sure live on in my heart as one of the greatest games.

My fav game i the entire world. Means the world to me. Play if you want your outlook on life changed

I played this game (all 5 episodes) with my friend during Covid in 2020, and now I finally have time to share my review:
To be completely honest, this is likely my favourite "Life is Strange" game, if not my top choice-based game overall. The visuals are striking and gorgeous, featuring visually appealing scenes and evoking a sense of nostalgia. In contrast to the initial game in the series, the decisions carry more weight and create a notable impact. The characters are intricately crafted and elegantly portrayed; they feel authentic, making it simple to connect with them. Every conclusion is truly devastating, which only enhances the genuine and authentic vibe this game possesses. They truly no longer create games like this.

Replaying Life is Strange 2, now on PC, was like revisiting an intense and deeply emotional memory — but with new eyes and a renewed sensitivity. Having already experienced this journey on PS4, I didn't expect to be so touched by Sean and Daniel Diaz's story again. However, the narrative remains surprisingly powerful, even on a second experience.
What makes this version even more special is the clear superiority of the PC version compared to the console. Visually, the game takes on a new life: the details of the environments, the fluidity of the animations and the richness of colors stand out more clearly, intensifying the emotional immersion.
The story, already captivating, seems to gain more depth in this version. Perhaps because it's the second time I've experienced it, I noticed nuances and moral choices that I had previously overlooked. The connection between the Diaz brothers continues to be the heart of the game, and even though I already knew the main events, I still felt the same tightness in my chest at several decisive moments. For those who have played it before, Life is Strange 2 is a chance for rediscovery; for those who haven't yet, it's an unforgettable journey that deserves to be experienced in all its details and in its maximum splendor.

Life is Strange 2 is good adventure, with a story about growing up, moral challenges and society issues. The roadtrip character of the narrative offers a great variety of sceneries but also comes with a lot of problems like lackluster side characters.
