Life is Strange: Remastered Collection allows fans of the franchise to come home to Arcadia Bay and experience the stories of Max and Chloe all over again with a beautiful update to the visuals. It’s wonderfully nostalgic to hear the chilled out indie music playing over long, sprawling cutscenes. It’s just as easy to be drawn into the complex plot themes of love, betrayal, loneliness and revenge… all against the darker backdrop of murder, drugs and kidnap. This is the perfect time for those who never quite got around to it the first time to jump in. It is such a wonderful experience with all the visual updates that come with the Life is Strange: Remastered Collection.
As far as remasters go, Deck Nine has very nearly hit the nail on the head. With refreshed visuals and animations that bring this immersive world to life even more than the original games did, it’s easy to get lost in the stories and world of our two protagonists. Life is Strange has the most notable visual differences due to its age, but both games feel refreshed enough that they feel shiny and new. Visual bugs, the occasional unblinking stare, and ambient NPCs with fewer model changes can break immersion, but whether you’re returning to Arcadia Bay or visiting it for the first time, this remaster truly is the definitive way to play.
LiS:BtS - english:
It was nice to experience the story again,
but since I already knew it I didn't find it as intense anymore.
I have an idea for a sequel for Max and Chloe!
Life is Strange 2 and True Colors didn't go over so well and I have to agree with that very much.
After all, we can say that the part where is the real ending and the decision is the alternate ending.
Then we call it Life is Strange: Max & Chloe´s Strange Travel or Tour through LA or whatever you want to write for a story and then we can continue to enjoy our two favorite characters.
LiS - german:
Wär echt schön Amber und Chloe noch mal zu sehen.
Obwohl ich es schon kannte ging es mir wieder sehr nahe und war immer noch ganz schön intensiv.
Mit dem Titel haben sie total ins Schwarze getroffen, es ist wirklich before the storm, LiS ist viel heftiger.
Aber hätte es nicht gereicht, wenn Amber entführt worden wäre, anstatt was wir in LiS herausfinden?
Auch wenn sie nicht real ist, zerreißt es einem das Herz, einfach zu brutal was Chloe alles durchmachen musste.

The best parts of the Life is Strange series are back in a new guise, with new animation, beautiful graphics, redesigned lighting. After going through the remasters, looking at the original hurts. Game optimization at the highest level. I highly recommend these masterpieces.

Лучшие части серии Life is Strange вернулись в новом обличии, с новой анимацией, красивой графикой, переработанным освещением. После прохождения ремастеров, смотреть на оригинал больно. Оптимизация игр на высшем уровне. Очень рекомендую данные шедевры
Life is Strange: Remastered Collection maintains the original aesthetics of the original games while making some welcome, if somewhat conservative, improvements. Visually and content-wise, this is the best version of both games, although it should be mentioned that the visual improvements are not homogeneous. That said, it is a great recommendation for those who want to revisit these games, those who want to get the most complete edition of them, but above all, those who missed them the first time around.
Life is Strange Remastered Collection is only good because Life is Strange is so good. The upgrades are nice, but they aren’t evenly applied and sometimes make the game look worse. It also has an inexcusable number of bugs. Life is Strange and Before the Storm are great games, but this collection is lacking. I recommend just picking up the original versions. You can probably find them cheaper than this collection, and they offer just as good an experience. They offer a better experience in some ways.
Deeply emotive, well written, respectful of player choice, and with a great look and atmosphere, Life is Strange and Life is Strange: Before the Storm are must-haves for anyone interested in narrative-driven adventures that focus more on the characters than the plot itself - even when taking their flaws into consideration. When it comes to the remastered collection, though… better wait for a generous bargain if already in possession of the original instalments, as the upgrades are not that strong, and the package isn't devoid of a few technical issues. If a total newcomer, however, be sure to check it out - although you can expect a bug or two if unlucky.
Fans definitely expected more from these remasters, while someone who hasn’t gone through these stories before will probably still be able to see what’s great about them - despite the changes the remasters have brought. Without a doubt, the original season of Life is Strange and even Before the Storm prequel, are great adventures, but should be experienced in their original form that is still available.
The original version is better than this
Life is strange remastered collection published by Deck nine, instead of making a good remaster, they focused more on making money. I think if the former studio of this game, "Don't nod", made this remaster, it would be better than this. This game has various bugs, such as the English subtitles not being coordinated from the second episode to the end, the characters' voice acting not playing in some dialogues, strange bugs on NPCs. Interestingly, in some sequences, the quality of the game is worse than the original version, one of those sequences is Max Caulfield waking up in Mark Jefferson's class. The only sequence whose quality was better than the original version was the final sequence in the final episode In short, if you want to experience the game Life is strange, I do not recommend this version
Una remasterizacion mas que decepcionante
Me emocione mucho cuando fue anunciado, luego probe el Life is Strange True Color que iba a ser un adelanto de las nuevas mejoras graficas y de animaciones que iba a traer esta remasterizacion. Pero luego de que se empezaron a filtrar imagenes y despues de haberlo probado, siento que le hicieron una lavada de cara, le pusieron un par de filtros y lo venden a 40 dolares.
Las mejoras faciales mejoraron, muy poco, teniendo los 2 juegos uno al lado del otro si se ven diferencias pero luego ya jugando la remasterizacion siento que no tiene ninguna mejora con respecto al original, pueden que las mejoras faciales se vean un poco mejor pero nada sorprendente y comparandolo con el LiS True Color quedan MUUY por detras.
Los escenarios siguen siendo los mismos, tienen un poco mas de nitidez, la vegetacion es bastante densa en la escena del patio de la escuela.
Me encontre varios bugs, en el capitulo 2 del LiS no funcionan los subtitulos, ademas de que tiene un problema con el audio que los pasos solo se escuchan por la izquierda. Y en el LiS Before The Storm los reflejos de los pircings en las orejas estan bugueados
A pesar de todo, no le veo sentido que cueste 40 dolares a pesar de que incluya ambos juegos con las minimas mejoras de la remasterizacion, Si no jugaron a los juegos originales, si les recomiendo esta remasterizacion en oferta, pero si ya jugaron a los originales, no gasten su dinero.
Una verdadera lastima
