Code for Before the Storm was provided by the publisher. I don't think they're going to like this. Also, spoilers for Life is Strange and Before the Storm, obviously.
The original Life is Strange, despite its issues, ended up as one of my favourite games of 2015. For a number of reasons, its recently concluded prequel doesn't even come close, at least in my opinion (and let me stress, this is my opinion). In this video, I begrudgingly examine why.
