any life is strange fans on here? who's your favorite character & why? 😊
i've been getting back into the games again recently, but my friend irl don't know about it
YESS!! LIFE IS STRANGE FAN RIGHT HERE <(￣︶￣)> does this goes for all the life is strange games or just the og game life is strange? if so i would say my favorite character is max. she's so sweet and nice and introverted she's a very kind hearted person with a good heart. she's also an relatable character too and best of all she likes taking photos and has a cool retro camera. how cool is that?? she's just hella cool fr and another one of my favorite characters would have to be sean from lis2 he's another relatable character i see myself in at times and he can be awkward silly but kind and caring he's loyal and protective of his little brother. he likes wolves i like wolves just his whole character is great he's the best like even though he has no powers he went through hell and back with his brother so he really deserves the best of the best. both of them deserve better fr i feel like if they met they would've been good friends together
You literally picked my two favorites too
I completely agree with everything you said about Max. One of the things I love most about her is that she doesn't feel like a typical video game protagonist. She's awkward, shy, overthinks everything, and sometimes lacks confidence, but that's exactly what makes her feel so real. Her love for photography is such a nice part of her character too, it fits her personality so well because she's always trying to capture little moments that other people might overlook.
And Sean... man, he deserves so much better. I think he's one of the strongest characters in the series, not because he has powers, but because he keeps going despite everything that happens to him. Most people would've completely fallen apart after everything he went through, but he never stopped trying to protect Daniel. He sacrificed so much while still being just a teenager himself.
I also love that both of them are just... normal people. They're not fearless heroes, they get scared, they make mistakes, they doubt themselves, but they still try to do the right thing. That's probably why they're so relatable.
And honestly? I love the idea of Max and Sean meeting. I feel like Max would take pictures of the places Sean sketches, and Sean would probably encourage her to stop doubting herself so much. I think they'd get along really well
life is strange!! peak ^^ ive only ever played the original game, but im planning to buy before the storm!! my favorite character has to be max. max is just such a sweet girl, and i would say shes pretty well written!! she acts like an actual introverted student which i love so so much because like most of the time in games it doesnt feel genuine at all idk if im saying this correctly but you get me right??
let me save you, hold this rope!
I only really like the OG game! Mostly bc of nostalgia, kinda.
Fav character? Nathan Prescott. Sue me. XD
I like troubled guys. But Nathan is so fascinating to me bc he's utterly consumed by guilt and his own deteriorating mental health. Also, his family sucks. He's pretty much all alone. 😔
I'm not into all the drug themes, but I honestly feel bad for Frank and his dog. Yes, Frank is a jerk. Yes, he's a dealer. But he clearly loves his dog and kinda of just lives in his trailer. It's not the best life, but it's simple.
Can we also give Samuel and his squirrels some love? That man was so sweet. ^_^
Yess!! I love Life is Strange. My favorite characters are definitely Max and Sean.
Max has always been my favorite because she's one of the most human protagonists I've seen in a game. She's introverted, awkward, and constantly second-guesses herself, which makes her incredibly relatable. I also love how compassionate she is. Even after getting the power to rewind time, her first instinct isn't to become a hero or use it for herself—it’s to help the people she cares about. Her story also says a lot about accepting that not everything can be fixed, no matter how badly we want to.
Sean is another favorite because his growth throughout Life is Strange 2 is incredible. At the beginning he's just a normal teenager worrying about school and friends, and suddenly he's forced to become Daniel's protector overnight. He sacrifices so much of his own life to keep his little brother safe, and I really admire how resilient he is despite everything he goes through. He feels like such a genuine, selfless person.
I also think both Max and Sean have something in common: they're not the "chosen one" type of protagonists. They're just ordinary people trying to do the right thing in impossible situations, and that's what makes them so easy to connect with.
Life is Strange 2 is honestly so underrated too. I feel like more people should give it a chance because Sean's journey is one of the most emotional stories in the whole series <33
