The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit

 
Japanese Language UpdateFeb 5, 2020 - Community AnnouncementsA note for those of you who may be wondering why they are experiencing an update for The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit, and great news for those with a knowledge or interest in the Japanese language... A Japanese audio and subtitle update is now available to all players! Daniel's Education Explained - Life is Strange 2Nov 5, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsAs we approach the #JourneysEnd, we wanted to take some time to deep dive on one of Life is Strange 2’s most important, but also most misinterpreted systems. We hope that this added insight will help guide you in your decision making as you start Life is Strange 2 either for the first time or on a repeat playthrough. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/1012195/4033e01f9cb08b288faeb0ffc6a33b3148ec48e5.jpg As you may know, choices and their consequences in Life is Strange 2 are centered around your brother: Daniel. What we purposefully haven’t outlined properly to date is the depth of this system or how it actually functions as we believe a Life is Strange is best experienced purely rather than trying to game the system underlying it. Quite often we will see players deconstruct the outcome of a Life is Strange 2 episode using the choice and consequence system of previous games: “If you choose these specific three or four options you should get outcome X”. Today we wanted to take some time to explain that interpreting Life is Strange 2 solely through that kind of system can only lead to confusion. Before we get into the new system underlying Life is Strange 2 though, know that each entry in the season does have episode-specific consequence systems that conform to the more traditional choice and consequence approach. Your relationships with secondary characters, for example, are often based on the branching that you’ve come to expect from a Life is Strange game. If you work hard to build a specific relationship, that character’s attitude towards you may change significantly which in turn will open or close off options that determine the fate of these characters. With respect to Daniel however, the system has added layers of complexity. From what we’ve seen so far, Daniel’s education is believed to rely on a “one-track” model similar to the one described above. That is to say that you can, for example, only teach Daniel to either be “Good” or “Bad” and that only certain key decisions will affect his education by nudging him towards becoming either a good or an evil person. The truth, however, is that Daniel grows and learns from your example based on two separate values: Morality and Brotherhood. • Daniel’s Morality state determines how he acts in any given situation. Does he act in a kind and considerate way, or is he entirely selfish, without regard for other people’s feelings or safety? • Daniel’s Brotherhood state determines how he responds to what you, as Sean, teach and ask of him. Does he trust you to make the right choice for the two of you, or will he disregard what you say because you’ve been unable to win his trust? https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/1012195/0ec841ec314d6a11864c2dfdce11e29ae376418f.jpg Here’s the thing: the choices you must make in Life is Strange 2 are, like in other Life is Strange games and life in general, imperfect options. There is no true “right” or “wron...Announcing the Life is Strange 2 Boxed EditionOct 14, 2019 - Community AnnouncementsThe moment many of you have been waiting for. Life is Strange 2 is getting a physical release on PC! It’s a fantastic way to begin and remember your journey forever - in tangible form sitting very attractively on your shelf, as all good mementos do! It’s also a great way to introduce your friends and family to the long, emotive road to Puerto Lobos. How will your journeys compare? The physical release will be available December 3rd, 2019 in Europe, and February 4th, 2020 in the Americas. It will come in two flavours – the Life is Strange 2 Standard Edition and the Life is Strange 2 Collector’s Edition. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/1012195/7284f467418b3f784d3f8d7cebf629338407f086.png The Standard Edition is priced at £34.99/€39.99/$39.99 and will contain: The Complete Season - Episodes 1-5 of Life is Strange 2 Bonus Game - The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit Arcadia Bay Patches - These items let you customize Sean’s in-game backpack! The Collector’s Edition is priced at £64.99/€69.99/$69.99, and will contain: The Complete Season - Episodes 1-5 of Life is Strange 2 Bonus Game: The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit Arcadia Bay Patches Jonathan Morali’s official score - 4x 7 inch Vinyl Box Set featuring the game’s amazing original music 32-page hardcover artbook - featuring concept art from Life is Strange 2 4 inch/10cm Sean and 3 inch/8cm Daniel vinyl figurines Collector’s Edition presentation box The Collector’s Edition will be exclusive to the Square Enix Store, and available to the UK, Europe and the Americas on the dates mentioned previously. And to address the Mantroid in the room – the different release dates. It’s nothing personal, we love you all equally. Different countries have different requirements when it comes to rating the content on the discs, and in some cases, this means that a game (or Episode) can’t be rated until it’s complete and submitted, even if it’s not on the disc, which is why the game will be releasing later in the Americas. With Life is Strange 2 we understand that some players may have been waiting for the final episode to release before diving into the game, and that in an ideal world, those holding out for the physical release wouldn’t want to wait longer than those playing digitally. We wanted to give as many people as possible the opportunity to choose between a digital and physical box full season release on December 3rd, but for the reasons touched on above, we aren’t able to provide a simultaneous release in every territory. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/1012195/084bdb3834b57c81484e7f119b926816a9455cc5.jpg The only alternative was to push every release date back to February 4th, 2020. As Life is Strange fans, you’ll know that struggling with hard choices is at the core of what we do – this was one we agonised over! In the end, we decided a split release was the best way to give the most players the widest amount of choice.

The brothers experience life on the fringes of society, as they befriend a close-knit community of drifters and runaways, and become embroiled in an illegal trade among the towering redwood forests of California. Sean and Daniel’s resolve is put to the test once again, as new relationships create friction between them and they both learn much about who they are as individuals. Uncertain about their once united purpose, can they stay together, or will their journey together end here?What videogame maps can tell us about their worldsFeb 22, 2019 - Rock, Paper, Shotgun We don t expect much of a typical video game map. As long as it guides us to our destination (and perhaps looks pretty while doing so) most of us won t waste a second thought on it. And yet, maps can be much more than tools that make our way from A to B a little more convenient. Some games reject the notion of maps as a tacked-on extraneous layer, and instead treat them as an integral part of their world. These maps can tell us something about their world and its inhabitants that goes far beyond topographical information. Rather than creating distance between us and a game, they root us more firmly in it.

While they’re settled down, there’s powers to be trained, codes of conduct to be established, and an exuberant kid next door that looks mighty familiar to anyone who played free prelude chapter The Awesome Adventures Of Captain Spirit.

The first of 5 episodes will release September 27, 2018 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC (Steam)! First things first: the trailer! https://youtu.be/q7K4R9nXO7k The main characters of Life is Strange 2 are brothers Sean (16) and Daniel Diaz (9), two brothers living a fairly normal life in Seattle, Washington state. Following a tragic event, their lives are forever changed. Now on the run from the police and threatened with both separation and incarceration, Sean decides to take his younger brother and seek a better life in their family's home town of Puerto Lobos, Mexico. Life on the road is tough and dangerous. The brothers will face all manner of challenges as they bravely undertake a journey that will test the bonds of brotherhood. Playing as Sean, you will need to make the kind of tough choices you can expect from a Life is Strange game, and you will need to live with the consequences of your actions. The game will this time focus on brotherhood alongside the need to guide and educate your younger brother whilst simultaneously coming of age yourself. As with previous games in the series, Life is Strange 2 will tackle a host of issues that all of us can identify with and that will cause moral dilemmas and require much soul searching. These themes come together most powerfully in the way Daniel will develop depending on the lessons you teach him and the role model you decide to be. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/1012195/c77890415c6c2c562552f4d10cd01830853ed150.png We are also really excited to confirm that Life is Strange 2 will feature a new power. What it is and how it relates to the brothers is something you will discover in due course! As Sean and Daniel travel towards Mexico, they will meet an entirely new cast of characters and pass through numerous new settings. Life is Strange 2 will also include multiple features that will be unveiled over the course of the next week, as we strive to deliver the most ambitious Life is Strange entry with the highest production values in the game series to date. Jonathan Morali, the French composer who worked with the team on the first game, is also composing a new original soundtrack for Life is Strange 2 which will be supported by a brand new licensed soundtrack. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steamcommunity/public/images/clans/1012195/8c14f68396fd013864284a744341a778c16fa1e3.png If all that information wasn't enough, you can also look forward to gameplay from Life is Strange 2 being released in the coming days.

Captain Spirit currently removes itself from your library after you uninstall it. This is how many free titles on Steam work. We have the opportunity to reconfigure this behavior so that Captain Spirit would stay in your Library permanently after you've installed it once. We know many fans have requested this behavior, but before enabling it, we would like to confirm whether there are any strong opinions against enabling this, as we understand that not everyone may want to keep a free game in their library. We have opened a discussion thread here - if you have any strong opinions either way on the matter, please do let us know!

Hell, six months ago the RPS Video Department was but a glint in Graham s eye. You may also recall a gathering of the most exciting games of 2018, a rundown of the year as it looked back in January. With E3 done there s a clearer picture of what the rest of 2018 looks like. Many games have slipped to February 2019 – the stampeding bandits of Red Dead Redemption 2 have them running for the hills – but we ve rustled up 15 of the remaining games that fellow video person Noa and I are looking forward to.

I got about fifteen minutes into the first episode, the dialogue started to grate, and I zoned out. Controversial opinion maybe, but if you re making a game about teenage girls, it can t hurt to pay someone who is or has previously been an actual teenage girl to help write it for you. Guess what though? I played through the whole of The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit, got a bit sad, and then I played it again, and now I m well up for spending more time in the Life Is Strange universe. Which is great, because it means I don t have to talk shit about a small child. Yay!
