Life is Strange: True Colors Reviews

Our family played this game together, and we loved it! The story was immersive, well-paced, and felt incredibly believable. The narrative was beautifully crafted, keeping us engaged from start to finish. One of our highlights was the music and visual design—both were stunning and added so much to the overall atmosphere. The voice acting was top-notch, bringing the characters to life in a truly memorable way. Each character was unique and left a lasting impression. Overall, this was a fantastic experience, and we highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys a well-told story, great performances, and a visually captivating world!

[h3] A strange tendency [/h3] A big series fan here. I have been enjoying all the games in the series, and gotta tell you: there is a strange tendency to be observed. The first game was just great. Everything was perfect about it: sympathetic and bold characters, atmosphere, and emotions. The second one was a bit less touching but still had its vibe, so it was awesome. True colors, on the other hand, is just all right. Plot twists and emotions look artificial from time to time. Even though professionally directed, they didn't feel as real as in previous games. However, I would still recommend True Colors to fans of the genre. The characters are decent, and the atmosphere is there. It's just the tendency of each game to be a bit worse than the previous one that concerns me.

It has a good story and focuses on the curiosity of the player and the main character, it's a nice addition to the franchise.

honestly i liked this game of LIS more than the other ones.. not sure if its the story, the flexibility of the game or how beautiful and real the graphics are, but one thing to say for sure, i would recommend this game more than any other game ive played. made me tear up too :(

personal favourite in the franchise, i love the soundtrack, setting, characters, and creativity on display throughout this experience not really much else to say i just think this is a really solid experience and really well done

Game was alright, much better than lis 2 and a bit better than before the storm. Lis 1 is still better although this game was pretty neat.

Worst game in the franchise despite being one of the most expensive

I've been on a Life is Strange binge the last few weeks. I did the first, before the storm and now true colors. I played Life is Strange 2 a while back and it's still fresh in my memory. For the longest time, I thought of Life is Strange 2 as the best of its genre. But honestly, after playing this one, I have a hard time figuring out which one is the best between the two. It's hard to say much about the game without spoiling it. You're basically a girl that has been in the orphanage system for a few years due to family complications around the age of 11. Your brother tracks you down many years later and you meet him in this perfect little town. Then.. Life is Strange does its thing. As for the DLC, it is completely opposite to the base game in the sense that it felt like a chore to play. It is fairly expensive at that. You play a side character of the base game which you initially speak to during Life is Strange: Before the Storm (you don't need to have played any of the other games for this DLC to make sense). They could have made it so much better like the bonus episode of Before the Storm where it goes into the childhood of Max and Chloe. But for this DLC, you're locked in a single location doing work for a side character. Nothing really fantastic. If you want to support Deck Nine, feel free to get the dlc. But if you just want to experience all the content, I'd suggest a heavy sale for the DLC as it is very expensive for what it is. Side note, it has no achievements so for achievement hunters, the DLC is unneeded.

It has some good moments but has a overall inconsequential story, unmemorable cast of characters and is ultimately a very hollow-feeling game.

99% of dialogue comes down to picking a very obviously bad or obviously good choice, apparently i got the "best" ending and it was a complete snoozer nearly the whole time. Believe it or not making it so that you can see people's emotions makes it fairly obvious what to do in any given situation. The final twist was decent enough I suppose, but there's no gravity to the situation. Your brother (the ONLY character that has any connection to yours) dies in the first episode, and the rest of the time it's a corny investigative romance simulator with people you met the day your brother died. Having entire sessions of the game just be entirely about DnD is also just brutal, I hated it in BtS and it's probably on a similar level here but more drawn out. Similar to the "wolf brothers" thing in LiS 2, but that game was actually good overall. It fails to live up to the 1st or 2nd games and is relegated to the "Wish I didn't buy this full price" category. Boring "power", boring dialogue, boring characters, boring game. If you like pretty scenery, indie music and creampuff dialogue you'll probably enjoy it.
