    Life Is FU****G Strange – So Is Bernard and his Watch!

    It defo is.

    What would you do if you could mess with time? I personally would go back to the Egyptian era and have copious amount of you know what with Cleopatra. But I digress…

    Just reading that this game was about Time Travel made me super excited. I immediately purchased all five seasons (the pass) and felt quality about it. I literally had no idea what I had just bought…… Do I regret it?? Do I heck! The game is brilliant. It’s like a reimagined Monkey Island where you get to control GuyBrush with your mouse/ Xbox Controller. I adored ‘point and click’ games growing up, and it was great to see this genre in modern day gaming with a twist.

    The plot and story are intriguing and keep you wanting to know more. It genuinely does make you think: ‘what would I do in this situation?’ As you can see from my YouTube Video:

    I didn’t always agree with the protagonist’s choice, but I accepted in in good spirit knowing that it would develop such a fantastic plot.

    If you guys are unsure about this, and are thinking ‘I want a button basher game like COD’ --- STOP----- Don’t DO IT--- you’ll regret NOT buying Life is Strange, remember, time travel isn’t real and you can’t rewind the clock to get that wasted $20 back.

      It always makes me wince when qualitative descriptions are used by developers and publishers when marketing games. Whilst I understand the necessity to promote those aspects of the experience that will likely attract the most attention, any talk about how impressive the world, or in the case of Dontnod’s Life is Strange, how well written the story is, has alarm bells sounding in my head almost immediately. The presumption and arrogance of some marketing guru telling me how I should think o...
