For a game that ISN'T about time travel, it sure skips around a lot, which is my biggest issue. You get introduced to a big cast of characters in one episode only for them to get shifted aside to a whole new cast in another episode. And it's not like we're meeting them at the same time as Sean - he's known them for weeks now... and then they're just gone.

I don't want to have to read a bunch of journal entries to understand what's going on. This story has a beginning and end, but doesn't know what it wants to do inbetween, so it just feels disjointed. Sometimes it just felt like I was spending three hours wandering around until the actual action came in right at the end (for the cool music video, of course!)

Life is Strange 2 suffers from what the first one did with the "important" dialogue choices. You are not Sean (or Max) so you don't get choices that are out of character for them. You get choices that Sean (or Max) would make, so it's extremely frustrating sometimes. This isn't The Walking Dead Game, it's way less ambiguous with who your character is.

I disliked Sean's mumbling. He is definitely the weakest voice actor. He has a sweet voice, but it seems like the only thing he's good at is pretending to cry. Any actual emotion is void. One example is him telling Daniel to "STOP!" in Episode 3. Despite that, I really felt for him. Daniel has his problems, but honestly, he's a nine year old that likes playing Minecraft. I don't blame him for the way he acts in certain situations. The only issue I had with him was in Episode 4 (where I almost hoped Sean would leave him there).

ANYWAY the original score is really good and the game looks pretty, though it makes my PS4 sound like a spaceship.
