Need big brain, not like me

First Episode Only

This game, along with its previous installment, is a gorgeous piece of art. It is "one of those game", it's not about the gameplay. Here the goal isn't to get to the end and/or get all the hidden collectibles, it is to witness and live an emotional journey. Therefore if you wanna play this game you need to be looking for a different kind experience and pay attention not only to the story but also details, wherever they are, in the environment, in the characters or in the soundtrack .

From the way the game conveys its emotions, making us, the player, relate and appreciate the characters' temper and individuality. This is a point where Life Is Strange emphasizes more than the Telltale games for example. Heck in this first episode I literally bursted out laughing and cried 20 mins later.
I also feel like it is important to note the time it lets to the player to explore and admire his surroundings along with a really fitting soundtrack.

It is too early to see if the choice system has an real impact onto the game. But from what I've seen it could be influencing a lot more than in other games of the same type.

Although I really apreciate this first episode, I still have to admit that the storyline and dialogs might come off as really cheesy or even cliché, and that the main character can be an huge edgelord (only if you make her be one of course).

I only played 2 to 3 hours (felt much longer), you should definitely make your own opinion

Positive Stuff:
- Hot females
- Nice graphics (compared to other third person MMOs)
- Good Looking and epic spell animations
- Soundrack seemed alright

Negative stuff:
- Oversexualized female characters
- Male characters are mundane af
- Leveling too fast / too many abilities, the whole thing becomes rapidly confusing
- Dungeons have little to no character
- Story telling is lame, narrative is rather boring
- Terrible audio sync during cutscenes
- Downgraded Cutscenes (low fps, low graphics)
- Quests are repetitive (New area -> kill stuff -> next area -> kill new stuff and so on...)
- Startegy and team work are inexistent
- Looting system is garbage
- Manually get off your mount everytime
- UI is chaotic and overwhelming due to too many abilities
- Paying in-game currency to unlock abilities made be bankrupted

Didn't go too far into the game but this is the first impression I had even though I was playing with friends and had good time laughing off the game flaws in the beggining it quickly became tedious and repetitive. But just as a lot of MMOs you need a lot of commitment to enjoy it so my small amount of playing the game shouldn't be trusted by MMO fans and experienced players. This review only shows how the game feels in the beggining as a whole.

If I had to give a rating : 4.33/10
