Well, I absolutely devoured this episode. Thought the start was a little slow, but that was mostly because I've already seen it with the YouTube video that was released, though, it didn't include everything, which I expected. Once the brothers actually had to leave, it got a lot better. Because I never played the original Life Is Strange, it randomly picked an ending from that to carry over in this. R.I.P. Arcadia Bay. There was a lovely memorial plaque, and everything. {Spoiler}I saw Daniel finding out their father was dead via TV News report coming the instant they entered the motel room. Did not see Daniel liberating the puppy, however. That threw me.
Got to say, Daniel wondering if the raccoon roadkill was the brother of the one they found in the woods set off my foreshadowing alarm in a massive way. Just got a horrible feeling this will not have a happy ending.
Nice little post-credits stinger with Sean helping Daniel refine his telekinesis in a snowy setting. I rather like how the powers aspect was handled, overall, with them even realizing what Daniel could do after he learned the truth and completely lost his shit. When's episode 2 due out? I want it now, LOL.

It’s definitely picked up with the introduction of Seth Rogen’s LiS universe doppelgänger.
And there’s Arcadia Bay. </3

I'm presuming they don't make it to Mexico for whatever reason, maybe they get stopped on the border or whatever. It'll be really interesting to see how Daniel's power will be used in the story and if we end up meeting Captain Spirit.
I really enjoyed it, when I saw the lighthouse I was like "OMG!!" and part of me hoped they'd stop off at Joyce's diner or something.
I hope they end up back home by the next episode (however, with the camping gear you could buy or sell I fear its gonna be 4 more episodes of hiking). One of the big things about the original that I loved was the school setting, teen life, etc. I want them to get back to Lyla and Jenn, go to school and romance.. Not travel the world and make campfires.
But all that said, I still loved it. Daniel is adorable, especially now with Mushroom. Ready for episode 2 now.

I don’t think they’re going to make it to Mexico, because I do not think this is going to have a happy ending at all. Like I said in my post after playing, There was one moment that I really think was foreshadowing, and it absolutely terrifies me.

Finally have a release date for Part 2, January 24th. I hope the next one is somewhat sooner, or else we’re looking at well over a year for the whole game to release with 4 month gaps between episodes. Cannot. Wait.

I finally decided to knock the first game off my backlog since it got added to Xbox Pass. Great game. Major spoiler: {Spoiler}Jefferson may be the most evil character in gaming. I must have have rewinded on his death 10 times.

Ugh, four month episode gaps? That sucks. I am waiting til all episodes are out, but looks like that's going to take a long time.

Yeah, I have a feeling I might just wait until there's at least three episodes out before I binge on this. There's plenty of stuff on my backlog.

You don’t kill my puppy and get away with it.
