Life Is Strange

A new teaser for Life Is Strange 2's third episode shows the cast of Life Is Strange 2 heading into a special kind of nettle field

Color me surprised that we did not get more of these kinds of trailers like the one we have here for the next episode of Life Is Strange 2. That being ones that try to dive into the made-up holiday to celebrate the 20^th of April. It looks like DontNod did not want to be left out of it all as we await the third episode of the game and see how everything will progress for the boys. It looks like it will take a smelly path given the setting of Life Is Strange 2, but with little to no context in it all. Unless I am missing something deeper than the little bit of dialog we have here today. That is always possible as I am not in that state of mind for the deep thinking…

Something I do find interesting here for Life Is Strange 2 is that it looks like it is diving into a topic, in some manner, that can be tricky in video games to have. The episodes have been rated M since the beginning but the topic of drugs is usually one of the things that gets that rating without the need for any violence or language to go along with it. Especially the one we are looking at here in the game. I am curious to see if this is the studio using Life Is Strange to push forward some kind of agenda to make it all a bit more acceptable in gaming just as other forms of smoking have been in the past. It is an interesting thought and I am curious to see where it goes.

Are you still excited for the next episode of Life Is Strange 2 or does the long gap leave you in a forgetful state? Do you think that this could be some kind of statement to the ratings boards or just something to mix in for fun? Do you find it funny to see all of this on the made-up holiday or were you too "out of it" to notice? Let us all know down in the comments and then feel free to discuss. When we have more to share for Life Is Strange 2, we will share it all here. All you need to do is keep checking back in for all of that.
