Yes this arrives after I come home from camping!
I'm porting them over from the game directlySorry, all the environmental stuff takes up 300-400+ files and is dumped into two different giant folders. No easy way for me to pick it back out. For future environments I'll try to make the directories easier to package
No biggie, I can organize it myself. I mean, I have thousands upon thousands upon thousands of files already, 300-400 won't hurt.

Ok, so I bought the season pass and finished the first three episodes in two days. I'm weird like that. Here's what I'll say. It's good. Hell it's probably better than any Telltale game. It sure as hell is more technically competent than any telltale game (<3 you Unreal). But what makes it better is that it at least feels like you're choices matter more, even in the short run. With something like Game of Thrones (the other game of this type I'm playing right now) yeah you get characters that'll remember what you said, but it feels like it doesn't matter and by some sort of deus ex machina, it gets erased (fuck you episode 5 of that game.) With this though, you're able to see the immediate aftermath of your choices and chose which one you're most comfortable with. Plus there's a lot of them. Big or small. It gives you more incentive to explore the world and interact with the characters.
Speaking of which, the characters are better than one might expect. Going into this having seen a bunch of John Hughes and other high school movies, I expected a lot of the minor character to just be stock types. But they aren't. They have so much personality, complexity and nuance. Take Kate Marsh for example. In the hands of a dipshit writer, she would literally be the Christian fundamentalist with no real personality beyond that. But her actions in episode 2 elevate her beyond that... but that's going into spoiler territory and I want to only tag one thing. Plus the possible revelation that
is beyond intriguing as all hell.
Not to say the game is perfect, Max's voice acting can be a bit better, and the blur effect is distracting especially in episode 1 but as far as Heavy Rain/Telltale type adventure games go, Life is Strange is the best one by far.
tl;dr Life is Strange is good and I'm glad I'm playing it right now.

the popular kids might actually be a cult conspiring the end the world (but that's just a theory, a game/conspiracy theory)

Huh, I think Max's voice acting is one of the best things about the game. I feel like the actress is able to take the occasionally awkward dialogue and make it work.
She made that Spirits Within line amazing

That's not to say it's bad. But her voice actress can express a bit more.
I think about this game so much, that I listen to the music every single day (among other songs, from the same artists, and other similar ones), annoy my friends who have played it every single day about how much I need that ep 4, and have gone and picked up The October Country (that book is fucked up... but good).
Need that ep 4

I also watched the movies they mentioned in episode 1, Cannibal Holocaust was euhm, something special all right.

Her VA sure is a big part of what makes the whole game so engaging, at least for me it is.

Ellie swears like a sailor and is more flippant in her demeanour. The pitch of the voicei s also different.

Been seeing the hype for this game since the early days. Bit the bullet after Ep3 in a PSN sale after seeing this thread at the top of GAF over and over, but after playing 1-3 back to back probably 6 weeks ago (and feeling almost every bump of the thread ever since) am happy to see episode 4 is almost here. Hoping episode 5 is here by mid October.

Looking at PS4 it says it is a 372MB patch, but the download shot up to 330MB quickly.
So it is basically a very small amount of changes atop the old patch
No new patch notes, they still say 1,03.
So I think it is the subtitle fix
I can't wait to play Ep.4, it's most likely going to end on a huge cliffhanger, as next episode is the last one.
The tension at the end of Ep.2 and the freak-out at the end of Ep.3 were just great
If I had to predict the ending I'm pretty sure it will have something to do with
those files you see at the end of the first two episodes, I think we might see either Chloe or Max's file being added
Then again seeing as I doubt anyone saw the ending of 2 and 3 coming it could be anything really...
Me either.

Yeah, you have to change your Steam language settings (Settings > Interface) for it to change ingame

Adding you what jediyoshi said, on PS4 it they are there too, you have to set the console language to French though, and then the whole interface and subtitles will be in French.

I really wish DONTNOD/SCEE would fix this:
I already own the season pass, why would I want to buy the first episode or play the demo? And it's so cluttered that if I scroll down to Related Items, it doesn't scroll up despite being slightly off-screen, because it's not designed to be that cluttered. Looks terrible.

Isn't that more of a general PS4 dashboard thing? But that "buy" prompt also annoys the hell out of me. I'm kind of insulted when I spend 60 dollars on a game and the first thing I see when I scroll down is the option to buy it again.
Disagree, I think it's pretty much perfect (as is Nathan's). Warren's VA is strangely off-putting to me though, and that's coming from someone who otherwise likes the character.

It's hard to predict how things are going to go, but I love the Ep.4 promo because
it shows us the files room and if that room is hidden under the barn Max is investigating, we may get to it soon! The vault shown is endgame imo, I feel like that is Ep.5 stuff, but we'll see.
I wonder how Ep.4 will go in terms of length...
Try to delete the season pass and download it again. Maybe that will work for you.

I already tried that when it first happened (after 2.50 came out, I think) but it didn't fix anything.
