Dear cinesamproductions, thanks for your appreciation of this alternate finale. When I think of this ending I'm reminded of Chloe's favourite film Bladerunner. The character of Doctor Eldon Tyrell states that his company's motto is 'More Human, Than Human'. Perhaps this alternate finale can be described as being 'More True, Than Real', given the 'hot mess' as one respected review described the 'endings' presented in the game.

Dear yapod9061, yes indeed DONTNOD should have included a special secret ending which could have been unlocked by players allowing the saving of both Chloe and Arcadia Bay.

Dear randomq1982 that's a good idea and worth the effort as flying the drone is a barrel of laughs.

Dear industrialNon, yes it's a moment of pure beauty.

Dear muhammadaun..., I'd love to work with the powers that be and fix the broken LIS timeline. I know of a way to grant Max the opportunity to challenge fate, just one more time and save the lives of William Price and Rachel Amber.

Caro M3Diz, obrigado pelas tuas palavras gentis de apreço e apoio. Estou grato por ter encontrado este final alternativo e que ele lhe traga alguma paz e alegria.

Dear URLpppp, thanks for your supportive comment. A special game deserves a beautiful ending.

Dear Imtrane15, thanks for your comment of support. You're not the first person to realise how artificially impossible DONTNOD made saving Chloe. Apparently in some desperate attempt to bring some sort of legitimacy to the intellectually dishonest and morally bankrupt endings they attempted to pass of as reasonable conclusions to LIS. The circular false logic of the disenfranchising diktat that DONTNOD forced upon players at the end of LIS would be laughable if it weren't so offensively disrespectful. DONTNOD made a mockery of themselves as there's no meritocracy to be found in earning that most dubious of distinctions by snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. The contents and structure of this ending was arrived at after considerable research in order that it best represent the most statistically probable resolution to the game. This is the finale that the players of LIS deserved to be able to earn for themselves. This is the futures that characters deserved to have. How DONTNOD ended up crafting a plane crash on top of a train wreck and calling it an ending I can only attributed to a combination of arrogance and/or a complete failure to understand the comprehensively established rules governing the functioning of games inhabiting the time travel fiction genre. Even the story involving the characters of Hermione Granger etc with an enchanted watch, a time turner, go it right in the Harry Potter novel 'The Prisoner of Azkaban'. So there's no excuses. I'll always remember one well respected review describing the end to LIS as being '...a hot mess...' as I've always wondered if that coded description for an excrement based euphemism that they weren't allowed to publish. I'd have worked with DONTNOD, Deck9 and Square Enix for free in order to resolve the mess that's been made of the LIS time line. I don't think I could make a more generous offer than that.

Dear Elena-vz7we, yes indeed you deserve this ending as the original DONTNOD endings are a plane crash on top of a train-wreck. The characters in LIS deserve to have their futures as outlined in this ending and the game's international fandom deserve this alternate finale.

Dear agitalaviv, thanks for your comment. As it can be objectively demonstrated that LIS' endings are intellectually dishonest and morally bankrupt I refuse to dignify either of DONTNOD's plane crash on a train wreck endings with my participation. In response to DONTNOD's apparent compulsion to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory I became compelled to create a legitimate resolution to the story as it stood. After much research the contents and structure of this alternate finale was arrived it order that it best represent the most probable resolution to the multifaceted plot of the game. The overwhelming vast majority of this endings international viewers have embraced it and i hope that it brings you some peace and joy.

Dear imasavage95, thanks for your question. The whole point behind the creation of this alternate finale was that the endings to LIS as presented to the player by DONTNOD are intellectually dishonest and morally bankrupt. I refuse to dignify DONTNOD's disenfranchising diktat attempting to masquerade as representative choice by participating in it. I understand the function of the mechanism of choice demonstrably better than DONTNOD. The function of choice is not the removal of options, via DONTNOD's circular false logic, but rather in the act of choice itself. Thus I chose not to choose either of their 'choices', instead I chose to choose a different choice, this alternate finale. I will not play any gain which labours under the foolishness that there's any acceptability to being forced to choose between two things of equal value when were entitled to both.

Dear Mrsavage_991, thanks for your comment of appreciation. I'm most grateful that this alternate finale has brought you some joy.

Dear TheUltimateMaker027, that's a great idea and I confess something which hadn't crossed my mind. Chloe managed to fix up the pickup truck which she discovered abandoned in the junk yard so yes I imagine she'd be happy rolling her sleeves up in the garage.

Dear Nameless00Soul, thanks for your words of support. Yes indeed, the contents and structure of this alternate finale resolve the game's story arc appropriately and furnishes the characters with the futures that they and the international LIS fandom deserve to have.

Dear ForeignWerewolf, thanks for your pleasant words of support and encouragement. I've found a way to grant Max the opportunity to challenge fate just one more time and save the lives of both William Price and Rachel Amber. The ledger book of life and death in Arcadia Bay will be made to balance, once and for all.

Dear gray9411, thanks for your comment supporting this alternate finale. I'd have loved it if DONTNOD had the foresight to make that the case.

Dear ASTRO29 yes indeed LIS is a very special game.

Dear maddievernati1580, yes it's both painful and beautiful to witness Frank's presence at Rachel's funeral.

Dear tayjohnson5926, thanks for your question. It can be objectively demonstrated that DONTNOD failed to conclude the story of LIS with anything approaching an appropriate resolution. The endings are intellectually dishonest and morally bankrupt. As such I became compelled to create an ending which would properly represent the futures of the characters in the game. This alternate finale has a content and structure arrived at after considerable research in order that it should best represent the most probable resolution to the game.

Dear armytshirt, thanks for your comment. Yes it's true that there's been a few people who've said that they get to the end choice of the game and switch LIS off as they disagree so strongly with both of the DONTNOD train-wreck endings.

Dear hassanhasibul7863, yes I think that the entire structure of the game and the resolution of its storyline makes so much more sense this way.

Dear gghostqs, thanks for your kind words of appreciation.

Dear Nameless777-, thanks for appreciating this alternate finale. The road not taken by DONTNOD in regards to LIS is such a painful waste of an opportunity. There's nothing meritorious about snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

Dear itsd3br33, thanks for sharing your opinion of this. When it comes to accompanying music it's always a genuine effort to choose that which seems the most appropriate to use. I can understand why my soundtrack choices aren't for everyone though it's with some mild disbelief how the years have flown by since I created and uploaded this alternate finale.

Dear flortrupp, many thanks for contributing such an informed comment to this discussion section. DONTNOD made such a independently demonstrable mess to the structure and endings of LIS that they have earned the most ignominious accolade of having snatched defeated from the jaws of victory. I remember one well respected review of the game describing the endings to LIS as being '...a hot mess...'. I've always taken that description as a stand-in for a more colourful metaphor that editorially they were not allowed to use. A big hot mess of we all know what! LIS was sold to us as a choice based game, as in plural, as in many, when in reality it's a 'choice' based game, as in singular, as in one choice only. As it stands the game of LIS is intellectually dishonest and morally bankrupt. Which is a depressing and disenfranchising reality for a game which initially enchanted its audience with its story and characters.

Dear Sean, that's a nice performance, thanks for sharing.

@@nickmattedwards Thank You for listening! 😃

Dear ramonaflowers, thanks for your comment. I hope you can understand that it was never my conscious intention to clickbait or mislead anyone. The endings to LIS created by DONTNOD can be objectively demonstrated to be intellectually dishonest and morally bankrupt. I was compelled out of respect, for the characters of LIS and the game's international fandom, to create a more appropriate resolution illustrating the futures of the main characters. The contents and structure of this ending where arrived at after considerable research in order that it best represent the most probable resolution to the game. I hope it brings you some small measure of peace and joy.

Dear josh, thanks for sharing your experience of playing this unique game. I've personally run the emotional gauntlet of feelings in regards to LIS. I hope that this ending brings you some peace.

Dear lily, thanks for sharing your experience of this alternate finale. Even after all of this time someone like you adds something fresh and new to the comments section.

Dear kamibrennyn, thanks for taking the time to contribute a substantial comment. The misunderstandings which pervade some sections of the LIS fandom would be laughable if they weren't so exhausting to be exposed to. DONTNOD missed a real story telling opportunity in not making more of the warren story arc.

Dear @gabriellagrey4163, thanks for your kind words of appreciation. I hope that this brings you some peace and joy.

Dear TechShark47, thanks for your question. Have you ever wondered why it is that Max keeps returning to the ladies room at Blackwell? She returns there several times throughout the game, at the beginning of her adventure and at the end. The ladies room at Blackwell is the time and place wherein and whereof Max is granted her time control powers from Rachel's spirit animal the blue butterfly. It's the beginning and the end of the Monday to Friday time loop that Max has created and is stuck in, it's the nexus, the centre point of Max's week from Hell. You'll notice from a rewatch of this alternate finale that both Chloe and Nathan enter the bathroom at approximately 2:34 through the hallway door and on the other side is the impenetrable white space-time continuum wall comprising the edge of the photo. You will also notice that at 3:34 when Nathan exits the ladies room after Chloe, that the impenetrable white space-time continuum wall comprising the edge of the photo has been removed and instead the normal school hallway is now present to be stepped into. This is because Max has closed her time-loop and created instead a stable time-line with Chloe alive and well in it. For ease of explanation and understanding I'll use the metaphor of waves standing in for time, should it come to pass that two waves of equal size and strength do meet each other in a head on collision out on the ocean, then they shall cancel each other out. Max returning to the time and place wherein and whereof she was first gifted her time control powers from Rachel Amber's spirit animal, the Blue Butterfly and closing the time loop by establishing a new and stable time-line with Chloe alive and well in represents the second time wave which nullifies the first. I hope that this explanation helps.

@@nickmattedwards i understand but, after she travels through a photo she comes right in the exact moment when she started, maybe in a different place but still. If you're saying that this is now the reality and she won't travel again that's another theory but we don't know if that's possible 🤷

Dear Theanimeweeb5425, thanks for your comment. This channel acknowledges and respects that different fans of LIS will have different preferences for different aspects of the game such as relationships between characters etc. It's genuinely legitimate to reject BOTH of the DONTNOD endings to LIS as they can objectively demonstrated to be intellectually dishonest and morally bankrupt. The structure of choice based games and how time travel is depicted in works of fiction are two things which come with comprehensively established rules which DONTNOD were compelled to conform to, yet failed to conform to. The LIS endings are an unrepresentative, disenfranchising diktat attempting to masquerade as legitimate choice. In that I demonstrably understand choice in a way that DONTNOD obviously don't, I choose not to choose one of their choices. Instead I chose to choose a different choice. The content and structure of this alternate finale was arrived at after considerable research in order that it best represent the most probable conclusion to the story arc of the game. Many viewers have stated that have chosen to embrace this ending, instead of what was forced upon them by DONTNOD. It's my hope that you now know that no-one has the right to force you to choose between two things of equal value i.e. Bay or Bae, when you have a genuine and legitimate right to both.

Dear cybxn, here's something for you, Max and Warren A Love Story: ua-cam.com/video/Gh08r1zkluI/v-deo.html

Dear melinkanouchik, thanks for your question. It may surprise you to learn that, despite it's inclusion in this alternate finale, personally I'm not in favour of the death penalty. It's more expensive than jailing someone for life, it doesn't act as a deterrent to the crimes for which it's used as a punishment, a society that legally and calmly kills people for committing crimes is arguably at a greater moral deficit than the perpetrators. Most importantly of all, after researching the historical and contemporary use of Capital Punishment it is revealed that those executed includes, those under 18 years of age i.e. children, those who can be independently demonstrated to be criminally insane or mentally incompetent, worse of all years after their execution people have been proven innocent beyond reasonable doubt of the crime they were executed for. Given my position and the evidence above it may be difficult to understand as to why I've had Jefferson place on death row in this alternate finale. There are two reasons, firstly Jefferson's is being held accountable for his crimes in Oregon, a state that has the death penalty upon it's statutes for the crimes he's committed, so it's an accurate representation of the justice system he'd face. Secondly, he used a hypodermic needle to sedate and then kill his victims. Oregon uses the lethal injection method to execute it's inmates on death row. Jefferson murdered by the use of an injection and now will be executed by the use of an injection. There is a balanced justice in that.

Dear NapoleonVIII, thanks for your suggestion. DONTNOD created a compelling story for their game 'Life Is Strange'. Yet when it comes to the plot, the actual cause and effect structure of the happening, it's like watching a plane crash on a train wreck, it's such a mess.

@@nickmattedwards, the scene with the searching bottles is also a waste of time. Max could have used that to train her powers. If she used her powers to gain more time to train it, she would have possibly gain the ability to look into the future, making her completely OP. Though, in this case a lot of episodes would have to be cut out.

Please let me get what I want...

Dear Lilith-R, from what I've seen DONTNOD is going to release a new game, near the end of 2024, entitled Lost Records: Bloom & Rage. Apparently the plot revolves around the friendship between 4 female characters and is a tale of supernatural time travel. Here's a link: dont-nod.com/en/games/lost-records-bloom-and-rage/

Dear Lilith-R, although that may be the case, what merit is there to be earned from standing by whilst an entire town full of people is turned into a graveyard in front of you? It was the painful acknowledgement of that very fact which originally drove Chloe to offer up her own life in exchange for all of the peoples lives in the town of Arcadia Bay.

Dear Naevedyam, thanks for contributing such an impassioned contribution to this comments section. Yes indeed there's no sense to be made as to why Max doesn't choose to take certain actions. The games studio which created LIS is called DONTNOD and they may well be masters of creating a compelling story, populated with endearing characters, yet it would appear that they have no idea when it comes to plot. The creation of and adherence to a genuinely legitimate cause and effect engine linking the causes and effects. They insulted this game's audience when they attempted to make us believe that Max would take a photograph of damn near every single last thing in Arcadia Bay, yet would fail to capture a single solitary shot of the one thing which would make a difference such as Nathan Prescott pointing a gun into Chloe's face whilst in the ladies room at Blackwell. I was so offended by the intellectually dishonest and morally bankrupt train-wrecks that they attempted to pass off as legitimate resolutions to LIS, that I became compelled to create an alternate finale. The contents and structure of this ending were arrived at after considerable research in order that they should best represent the most statistically probable resolution to the story of the game and the futures of the characters. I hope that it brings you some peace and joy.
