Cons
Con Limited audio tracks
The original tracks are great, however you will get very familiar with the songs because of how few of them there are. There are long gaps between when songs are played as well, leaving much to be desired on the audio front of this game.
Con Combat is very basic
Combat happens very quick, and because of the low resolution you can't see enemies until they are virtually right on you. Combat itself is very basic - left click on a target to melee attack them, and right clicking will use your abilities on the target.
Con Choices feel a little lacking
While there are many choices in Life is Strange, most of them have no long term impact on the story. The only noticeable changes are the dialogue lines and what scenes you get. While this adds some nuances to your journey, the destination is ultimately the same.
Con Some audio sync issues
In addition to poorly done lip syncing, character voice lines sometimes overlap as well. You might not understand what's being said unless you turn on the subtitles. It can be really annoying at times, even with subtitles.
