Yes. 

Keep in mind, this is a VERY small part of the game. It's just a couple friends who let you join the end of their campaign, which takes about 30 minutes tops (if that; it felt a bit long to me, but that's likely an exaggeration). 

So while I'm happy to suggest Life is Strange to anyone interested, don't buy it for that scene. I think episode one is less than $10 though (like maybe $7), so it's not a bad investment if you like dialogue-tree/minor puzzle games. 

I can understand wanting a more "gamey" game, but lately I'm just in the mood for these choose-the-narratiove games. 

Yeah, I thought about you when I made that title. I mean, I played a virtual tabletop game? I think I could get into the mechanics of them, but the delivery of what I think are hilariously bad elf names makes me cringe a bit. I feel like if I played, I'd just drag everyone down with my noncommitance to the bit. 

They're doing a decent job of making her seem a lot more relatable ... in the process maybe making Max look a bit less morally perfect. 

It's hard for me to comment on, since I never had such an important immediate family member pass away, but some things Chloe did in the first game and this just seemed inexcusable to me. Then again, she is a teenager and a lot of people who were shitty teens end up being more empathetic, etc. later on. I still don't love Chloe, but I'm willing to give her a chance.

I can definitely understand that. I prefer these to Telltale games, because they give you time to make decisions and I don't feel like I'm just being caught off guard in the middle of a TV show the way Telltale games make me feel. 

Another thing I like is the emphasis on (simple) puzzle-solving. 

But if choosing dialogue doesn't sound like a fun game to you, I 100% understand that. I used to think, "well, why would I not just save the money and watch a Let's Play?" but it really is more satisfying for me to actually make the decisions and see where things go. 

Yes. Yes you do. 

I loved what I played of Yakuza 0 and want to finish it, but maybe Kiwami is a good cheaper alternative.

Switch gears completely and play life is strange! Or not, it's not a mechanical game like Minecraft. Or games that aren't almost totally narrative driven. You can time travel though. That's neat.

I see pictures but not a video.

Not in my opinion. The tone is similar, but it's not like I thought of it before you said something.

I should really play that one DS one I have.
