02.01.2024 | Life is, indeed, strange. [WIP]
Don't mind me, just crying through the chapters of LiS while working on this. I'm playing this game blind so I have to finish the game before I can draw in symbols for parts 4 and 5.

some more LOP script translation notes
[SPOILERS AHEAD]
Geppetto:
Well, I suppose Carlo was mischievous.
It seems you inherited his personality instead of his memories.
this line in korean + alternative interpretation
그래, 카를로는 항상 말썽꾸러기였지
기억 대신 그 성격이 네게 옮겨 갔나 보구나.
Right, Carlo was always a troublemaker
It seems like you’ve gotten that personality instead of his memory.
also, 기억 (gi-eok) means “memory”, but i believe it can also be interpreted as "mind” (although 정신 "jungshin" is much better). As in, even if Pino inherited his personality, he didn't gain Carlo's consciousness. If you used that interpretation, it would confirm that pino absolutely isn't carlo. again up to interpretation!!
"말썽꾸러기"
as in a troublemaker (literal) or a rabble-rouser, but denotes a child. In the korean version Geppetto implies that Carlo was insubordinate rather than “mischievous”. in english, “mischievous” denotes playfulness or malicious intent.
Carlo has such a presence in the game. We can only ever really experience him through events of the past but that's the intangible nature of death. Like how this post describes the trope of the "dead girl" - the narrative is inhabited by his absence. His death is the beginning of everything. [Reminds me of Rachel Amber from 2015's Life is Strange . And on that tangent, that's also why I really feel like they shouldn't have done the DLC prequel with her. She is dead. We may catch wisps of her voice here and there but ultimately she is wholly unreachable.]
(terrifying and ominous text message player receives near the end of the game)
Also, revisiting that line ONCE AGAIN:
그깟 늙은이, 죽어도 상관 안 해.
That old bastard, he can die for all I care.
Culture cannot be separated from language. Korea is generally a conformist society with a deep emphasis for respect for your elders and your parents. The fact that Carlo uses that form of speech with his father gives us an impression of their relationship – but it also suggests his feisty nature. [edit: Even in the portrait, Carlo stares back at us in sullen defiance.]
[the fact that carlo is actually pretty venomous here is also why it feels more fitting when romeo is like "Don't be like that" even though he was aware of geppetto's neglect. “He can die for all I care." The relationship with Carlo and Geppetto was AWFUL.]
more notes:
another small adjustment to a particular line:
Geppetto (released english version):
I knew you had gone astray, you troublesome little puppet!
Korean line + slightly more literal trans:
네가 엇나간다는 건 진작 알았다. 이 말썽쟁이 인형 녀석!
I knew long ago that you were going astray. You troublesome doll!
perhaps it's clearer in the korean line that Geppetto had begun to suspect us since the beginning.
Carlo is romanized as kareullo 카를로. Geppetto is Zepeto 제페토 and Romeo is Romio 로미오 (English pronunciation) and not Romeyo 로메오 (italian pronunciation) [from namu wiki]. He also says "Call me Lempuwik" 램프윅(lampwick, english), and not "Lucignolo" (original italian).
And probably the most important of all: The title pun in korean. P sounds like the character for blood. also ties in to the becoming human flesh-and-blood theme of the game. (P의 거짓)
korean netizens have taken to calling it "pigura 피구라" for short too.

am i insane or does this mean something. hear me out listen
there's a dot at the end of the sentence with rachel amber and she died later and that is the only sentence with a dot at the end of it
which is interesting because chloe also died but got revived later over and over again or not, depending on which ending you choose, but there is not a dot at the end of her sentence one way or another
so is that a guarantee that she always survives anyways?
since listen hear me out when we have a fever dream scene in the episode 5, there appears another max that talks to our max about leaving her and so many more versions of max behind whenever she rewinds, so just jumping into another timeline but not rewriting the one she is rewinding
so does this all mean that in the sacrifice chloe ending, the max and chloe that you leave behind manage to survive one way or another?
i meann i don't think that we can trust nightmare max too much (dare i say, at all), but what if she said the truth there?
i might be reading into this too much but we all know that there is a huge amount of detail put in literally everything in the game
so what do you guys think

Your Chloe price rage is so real, playing that game made me mad as hell too
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS she fills me with RAAAAAAAGE!!!!!!!!!!! Flames! Flames on the sides of my face.
"Max, why didn't you pretend my weed was yours so I didn't get yelled at for being a teenage waistoid which I absolutely am?"
"Max, why didn't you ditch a suicidal girl to hang out in a junkyard doing nothing with me?"
"Max, why didn't you let me steal money from the school's handicap fund to pay off my drug dealer because I'm irresponsible?"
Shut the fuck up, Chloe. You can't even dye your hair right. THOSE ROOTS! What the fuck is that? What even the fuck is that? Has Brad Mondo taught you nothing?! AND YOUR TASTE IN MUSIC SUCKS! "Let's thrash" you say and then you turn on the most white bread indie bullshit I've ever heard OH MY GOD why are you the way that you are? I kill you, Chloe. Do you know that? I kill you every time. You are not worth sacrificing an entire town for. I don't even cry when Nathan shoots you. I stand up and cheer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
*pants* I'm...I'm ok. I *wheeze* I think I got the hate out.
I really love Life is Strange. I do. It's just...I wish the game let you have a more active hand in murdering Chloe, is all.

I like villains. Probably not surprising, since everyone likes villains, but I'm gonna ramble about them anyway, specifically in the context of Life is Strange 1 and True Colors.
I don't like evil for evil's sake villains. Mostly (InFamous being an exception because how do you NOT ground pound with civilians all around?) So I'm not much invested in Mark Jefferson. I am very into Jed Lucan, however. I find his whole deal fascinating. I wonder how he felt, knowing about the blast to cover up his biggest shame. While he watched the girl he took in mourn her brother he helped kill. I wonder when his self-hate turned septic and there was no going back for him. I think about how often he lay awake at night.
Villains with regret are interesting to me because they are so close to heroes. The capital-E Evil Villains don't have it, and while that can be fun (the emperor from Star Wars comes to mind) it's not compelling for a long time. I STILL think about Jed. And it leads me to think about our heroes in both games, Max and Alex.
Max and Alex are so interesting because their powers allow for some real villain shit, but it's up to the player how that goes. If Kate dies and Max tears into Victoria and Taylor over their role in it, how does she feel when the storm comes? Does it influence her choice for Bae or Bay? If she sticks with Bae, what does she do with her powers from there?
Max is kind of a weak villain, however, at least in terms of what we see. She's pressed and pressured into a decision after the worst week of her life, and even that is abstracted. Arcadia Bay doesn't have a face put to it; Chloe does. When Max has choices presented, it's usually to influence how people see her.
Alex on the other hand, I love as a possible villain. All of her decision points affect the fates of other people. Does Mac leave town. Do you respect Char's autonomy, and for that matter what about Pike? Eleanor? Do you forgive Jed? Alex has faces put to all of her big decisions, and thus the potential for regret is HUGE and I love her for that.
Give me the villain who can't see it until it's too late, who doesn't know the objectively right thing to do, only how they feel in the moment. I want villains who really dig into why and how we fuck up.

LIS Book 6 - More Spoilers - Max & Chloe Reunite! ❤️🥺
I love the way Chloe reaches out to Max and how relieved/happy they are to see each other again! Max is in disbelief that she finally is with Chloe again, and she says "this is Real...right?". And Chloe says "I fucking hope so."
Then they lean in for a kiss. ❤️
Screenshots taken by me.
