I miss Arcadia Bay, but Haven Springs has its own beauty that I'm very comfortable with. I feel like Haven Springs is a place where people can recover from their inner wounds and be happy. It‘s small but also….peacful, like everybody treats each other like family 💙

what a beautiful game, wish it was truly a open world , games like being able to go more places, more side activities like fishing , swimming, driving, there is mention of a movie theater in Haven but isn’t revealed in the game, where is Gabe body located, to have a proper burial ,wish it could have been around just a little bit longer in my opinion, was really getting used to seeing him with Alex, in my opinion , i love the game. the good characters, wanna see more interactive characters in the game, more side quests, side missions that doesn’t take away from the main storyline, maybe alternate endings where the main characters can be saved , mystery characters too, who was that angry bald man who was having bad luck throughout the game that was hilarious, more interesting characters like him in future games , what’s the next adventure going to be, the steph dlc i hope it’s not the only post launch content coming after buying a higher version because standard doesn’t include the dlc, alternative outfits , anything like deluxe and ultimate

To me, there really just isn’t any other franchise as specifically magical as LIS. Not in this way. THANK YOU for giving us this, thank you for your hard work and the love you so clearly put into your projects. I finished LIS:TC the other night, it helped me in a bad place. It was the only thing that gave me an escape from my depression enough to be able to immerse myself. The atmosphere, the soft colors, the soothing music, that air of “oh, all the things that life will be when I get older” (even as I’m nearing 30), it’s… a beautiful, uplifting franchise. To me, it stands unmatched. I have to admit that I miss the Diaz brothers a lot. The only letdown was the lack of a cameo (other than Sean’s squad-shirt, I chose for Alex to wear it of course). Because they stole my heart. Sean has a special spot in here that only a marginal amount of video game characters get to claim. And I dream that maybe we’ll see a cameo of him some day. Maybe he’ll become a famous comic writer and we’ll see his issues side by side with other background series in LIS4 (subtle plea is subtle, I know). I just… LIS2 was something extra. But imagine that - in a tapestry of so much good. I’m so grateful for all the good vibes these games have given me. I appreciate your franchise so much, guys. Thank you. ❤️

I didn't realise that Haven Springs was based on a real place. I thought it was a town crafted specifically for the game. It's lovely to see the inspirations behind the setting of True Colors. If the thing about Coloradans having a real sense of pride in their state, then I can only imagine how people from this town in real life felt when they saw Haven Springs for the first time.

@johnc2956 Год назад

Life is Strange 2 and True Colors both speak to me deeply. LiS2 is about living on the road and alone, a minority escaping to music and art while having paranormal experiences--my youth and as a result my life on the road the past 11 years overseas. True Colors is finding and creating a home and connecting with people--a nice contrast to LiS2 and I'm Asian as well. Haven Springs and Alex's experience remind me of the desert town in LiS2 with Karen. I'm now moving to Northampton, MA, but I do intend to visit Idaho Springs and other similar towns on the way with my two dogs, sketchbook, guitar, and whatever is my own something-something that Daniel/Max/Alex had.

@Sp3llmen 2 года назад

As someone who has lived in small towns basically my entire life in Wisconsin, I can honestly say small towns are the best way to go. You can just choose to live in one near a bigger city if you still want that experience. But small towns with lovely neighbors and a tight knit community is the way to go. The stories youll hear and friendships you will build are like nothing else

@chrisd9799 2 года назад

It's interesting that most of those mountains towns have the same main street layout. All the old buildings run up the main street, there are some outliers though. I live in a New Mexico town with the same layout founded in 1887. It's not quite picturesque as the Colorado towns, but has the same layout. 45 minutes away are the Rockies. Just remember most of these towns are warm in summer, bit can be "really" cold in winter.

The area I live in used to be countryside when I was a child, but as I get older it's increasingly more and more just suburban sprawl.

As a Brit, it was always my intention to move to the US and - for some reason - Colorado was the place that always appealed. Three times, I've almost made that move and three times, something has come up to stop me going. Now I'm getting older. Retirement is looming. Once again, the urge to go to the US is starting to settle in my mind and, again, it's Colorado that's calling to me the loudest. Playing True Colors has just strengthened that urge. "Riv," it whispers, "We're still waiting for you. Pack away the record collection and start looking for a home here." Soon then.
