Well I'm done the episode now. I'm absolutely blown away, it just kept getting better and better. If the quality of this prequel holds up it might actually surpass Life is Strange itself, and I don't say that lightly.

Most of what I have to say would be spoilers and I still need to organize my thoughts so I might wait until others have played it (which other people totally should, come on everyone it's great) but what amazed me most was just how well the writers understood Chloe. She's every bit as nuanced and amazing here as she was in Life is Strange. It was unreal.

Honestly, despite Life is Strange being my favorite game ever and Chloe being my favorite fictional character ever, I went into this without much hype. In my experience, stories don't usually do well when they're expanded like this. I was afraid they'd exaggerate Chloe into the hateful jerk a lot of people seem to see her as, and that the story would be blatant excuses for fanservice. Before the Storm actually crafted a shockingly meaningful and emotional story, though. I'm still sitting here just... in awe of it.

In short, I'm hella impressed.

LiS Ep4 > BtS Ep1 > LiS Ep3 > LiS Ep2 > LiS Ep1 >>> LiS Ep5

I'd honestly say LiS Ep4 and BtS Ep1 are close to equal, but I give Ep4 the edge because it had the hype of a lot of past choices coming together in satisfying ways and... well, that's hard to pull off in a first episode >_>

Now the wait for Episode Two begins! Someone else should play this
