This is honestly one of the most underrated games out there. And before I continue: no, nobody is forcing you to see LGBTQ content. If you’re not a dumbass and don’t pick the most obvious choices that lead to it, you won’t see any of it. I’ve got a few games in my library, and I’m pretty picky about what I actually play instead of just idling for trading cards or never touching at all. Yet, after completing this game in about 16 hours, I’d say it’s the second best game Don’t Nod has ever created, right after Life is Strange 1. Well, If you’ve got a stone where your heart should be, or if you’re already dead inside, this game isn’t for you. You’ll probably get bored or hate it. But if you actually give it a chance, you’ll notice how much love the developers put into it. It’s basically a story about four people becoming friends: hanging out, laughing, being awkward, and enjoying themselves while having the time of their lives, all mixed with some very cool 90s style music and art. There’s a sprinkle of mystery here and there, just don’t expect Stranger Things or X-Files material. It’s more subtle. Yes, the dialogue can be awkward or cringy at times, but let’s be real, weren’t we all sometimes cringe at that age? That’s what makes it feel so real. The characters are awkward, flawed, funny, and genuinely likeable and relatable. A small negative I noticed: the voice acting doesn’t always perfectly sync with the characters, and Nora’s hair was flickering around in the bar. But aside from that, the voice acting itself is very enjoyable and lovely. The music and soundtrack are excellent. I already added some tracks to my Apple Music playlist. The graphics and environments are gorgeous and detailed, and you get enough freedom to explore and discover some extras. With all the beautiful areas, it’s also a great game for people who love taking screenshots. The videocamera mechanic is another cool feature. You can record your own videos, mix them together, and by the end of the game, you get a little movie with most of your clips combined. That’s super fun. Still, in some parts I really wished we could just take a picture instead of recording random items. And I have to say, the lakeshore scene alone with drinks, laughs, dandelions, sparklers, fireflies, marshmallows by the campfire was pure wholesomeness. Those tiny moments made me love the game even more. It’s just so pure. The end of Tape One hit me like a truck. No spoilers, but it left me speechless and in tears. The end of Tape Two was sad and wholesome at the same time. Choices matter and lead to different endings in the game, so there's some replay value if you wanna see everything. PS: Call Kat in Tape 2. Trust me. (285-555-0919) PPS: There’s an extra scene after the credits, so don’t close the game too soon. Overall, this game is something special. It’s cozy, emotional, and heartwarming, and it deserves way more attention than it’s getting. If you enjoy story driven games that actually make you feel something, this is an absolute must play. You won’t have to see any LGBTQ content if you just don’t pick the super obvious choices that lead to it. Since the game has replay value with multiple endings, it was totally worth it for me, even at full price.

It's been 27 years since Swann first stumbled onto the girls It's been 10 years since I first stumbled onto the Episode 1 of Life is Strange. I was very touched by Max's story back then, but this one... man, this one is special. Maybe, MAYBE! Lost Records is not the most heartbreaking thing in the world. But it certainly felt like one. What started as an intriguing mystery ended up giving me what others may only dream of providing - a most genuine view of another person's life. It wrecked me beyond repair. I am without a doubt still unpacking what this game actually made me feel. It's like uncovering an entirely new emotion. A new dimension. And don't even get me started on the technicalities... If you invest yourself into this story, the authors really know how to make your experience more meaningful. Wherever you look there are always some carefully placed details that expand your perception of the narrative. The team continue to invent more and more clever and impactful ways to interact with the game. The writing is vibrant and profound. You are surrounded by real people with layers upon layers and beautiful internal contradictions. Dialog and overall interactive systems are so refined and more complex than anywhere else, perfectly reflecting our protagonist's internal world. and Camcorder is a genius touch and the heart of all of this. Perfection.

It was fantastic. Positives: -The characters feel like real human beings, the acting, movements, everything about them feels real and unique -Mechanics: I like the hidden choices, recording everything, choosing who to talk to and what to talk about -Graphics: Surprisingly good? It's a big leap compared to their other games. -Acting: Pretty good overall -Music: Very good overall, but not as memorable as their first LIS. Still pretty good! Negatives? -Pacing: Maybe a bit too slow. I think the old 5 episode format could be better. I miss when each episode had a defined "theme" and left you wanting for more. With this game it felt like a very long stretched out episode one. It's not like I was not enjoying it, but I kept waiting for something big to happen. Note: Tape 2 is not out at the time of writing this. -The choices can be misleading. You can say something that seems "good", but the way Swann delivers the line makes the girls upset. I will be replaying it to change my choice lol (remind me to update after tape 2)

(Updated having finished Tape 1) If you liked Life is Strange (especially if you loved the first game and were disappointed by Double Exposure), this is the game you’ve been waiting for.* As I write this after finishing Tape 1, the game has over 1000 reviews, and is sitting at 93% positive. This was clearly a labor of love; it isn't perfect, but it is genuinely heartfelt. It has an intentionally slow and introspective pace, which works really well for it; if you don't like that sort of thing, you might not like this game, and that's OK. But it is a game about real, relatable people and their connections with each other--which aren't always what they seem at first--and the more supernatural, dramatic elements are, like in most Dontnod games, simply a vehicle for telling a story. I'll update this again after Tape 2 comes out, but I have every confidence it will be phenomenal. My original review: I was hoping to enjoy this, but I was blown away with how it also genuinely fires on all cylinders. The music, visuals (especially character designs and expressions), voice acting, and all those elements feel deeply immersive and beautiful, but the interactivity (moment to moment gameplay, short range choice and consequence) are all outstanding. The use of the video memoir feature is such a well-implemented tool for both narrative and gameplay, and the photo mode is much more powerful and well set up than the one from the recent LiS:DE. The narrative was engaging from the start, and it seems to be going somewhere specific, with a clear creative vision. We’ll have to wait and see if Tape 2 can stick the landing, but this segment is top notch. * It even has a cat you can play with, and you don’t have to spend an extra $30 just to see it for five minutes and have it taken away!
