Life is Strange: Double Exposure is a journey I'm thrilled I got to go on... Great characters, a wonderfully crafted world, and a twisting narrative all help elevate the game over what holds it back.
Life Is Strange Double Exposure is definitely more adventuring & choice-making for existing fans of the franchise, especially those who loved the first game and missed spending more time with Max Caulfield. That being said, this is probably one of the better games in the franchise despite the bugs & weak climax.
This is a preliminary judgment about the game, since only the first two chapters were played. In Life, Strange is: Double Exposure returns Max Caulfield as a twenties studying at the University of Caledon. She leads a quiet life without using her time -manipulating forces, until her girlfriend Safi is murdered by an unknown shooter. This triggers a new power with which Max can switch between two realities: one in which Safi is dead and one in which she is still alive. Max uses this power to investigate the murder and prevent more victims from falling, while balancing between emotional dilemmas in both realities. The first two chapters are very strong and contain strong visual elements and expressive characters. The gameplay builds on well -known elements from the series, but the slow structure can discourage some players. However, the price for early access is not entirely worth it. Waiting for the official release date for the entire game seems better to be in place.
