Completely stand alone. It's fine to have never played either of those.

How is #2? I never got around to that one. It didn't sound as interesting as the original or this one.

Well, I didn't plan on powering through the game tonight but I finished Chapter 4 and ... WTH? That's a helluva cliffhanger. So I had to keep going. What an emotional ride. I didn't think it'd be possible to top the original, but I believe they did. Questyen summed it up pretty well in his GOTY thread, so I won't retread other than expounding on Decker's nugget:
If anyone is reading that hasn't played DO NOT READ Decker's spoiler
The bolded part is huge and it all goes back to the beginning of the game.
That lesson was totally lost on me when playing and I appreciate the game not spelling it out like most games would. It's a smarter and richer game for it.

It's good just not as good as the rest of the series. Because it had the nerve to talk about immigrants and illegal immigration when Trump had been getting people riled up over those issues it had the typical sections of the gaming community bashing and review bombing it.

Coming to Game Pass on April 12th.
I finished the original game and Before The Storm, but never finished LiS2. I should try to get to that, but I'm not sure it's relevant for True Colors, other than some Easter eggs.... maybe?

I finished this last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. However, I'm not a math major but things don't quite add up.

I'm playing this now and really enjoying it. The kids think it's cool and help me make decisions. I told them I want Alex to be as honest as possible with people, that's my default "mindset" for the character. So far, so good. This was on sale for $12 on PS4 disc at Amazon last month, by the way.
This game is the most Generation Z thing I've ever experienced!

It's included right now with the Extra tier on PS Plus along with Life Is Strange 2. Most of my gaming the past month or so has been Extra tier games.

I believe it's on Game Pass. I bought it during a Black Friday sale. I might have to start playing it since everyone's playing it now. Do you have to play any of the previous Life is Strange games before starting this one?

Life is Strange 2 and Life is Strange: True Colors are standalone stories with just easter egg level connections to the world of the original game. Life is Strange: Before the Storm is a prequel to the original Life is Strange.
