This game is amazing and deserves more attention. I have played up to the 4th episode so far, as I purchased the complete season. Life is Strange 2 is the only game of the series that I found interesting enough to play. I found Life is Strange boring and its choices/consequences/plot do not matter in the end because of the character Max has powers herself. The sequel is different in that the main character Sean, does not have a power while his younger brother Daniel does. This is interesting because your player choice has more weight and consequence because Daniel ultimately decides what to do with it. I LOVE both of them, Daniel is very realistic in his young and impressionable age. Your choices in game directly influence Daniel and his own behavior. Daniel can be good and he can be bad, but its at the fault of the player. The game is simple in that of a road trip and a journey, but the game can be intense at times which I like. Overall I find it disappointing that some players dislike the story and characters because the original characters will not appear in the story. The game has a few bugs, but one serious one involving save files has been fixed. The music and scenery in this game is also fantastic and fitting with the story. I love the new story and will be very much looking forward to the finale.
Edit: The finale of the series really surprised me. The Life is Strange team has improved since the release of the first game. Unpopular opinion but the second is much better than the first. In Life is Strange 2, your choices matter in the end. No spoilers. I really enjoyed my ending as it was bittersweet. If anyone wants to play this game, I highly recommend it. But stick with it as it does get better as you should play it from beginning to end. I ended up caring for Sean and Daniel very much. The first and last episodes were my favorite but the finale ties everything up nicely.
