I feel like people constantly forget that the game was originally supposed to be another 5 episode game but got majorly cut down due to strikes and budget issues lol
Thats up to your interpretation! All we know is that when Rachel got into college, she started using more drugs and acted more unstable than in high school due to everything that happened in BTS. Thats how she got closer to frank and she was ready to ditch Chloe since she was taking so much time to leave arcadia, and with jefferson, she just liked jefferson and probably was groomed by him as well (Like nathan was)
Yes! A proper prequel would've been about that and not the crappy family drama they gave us lol Rachel had so much potentia as character l but they wasted it all...
@@ArtisticNebula Yea but i think the game was focused on Chloe, rachel was an extra. they need to make an "The Storm" chapter to play with the words that rachel can be seen as the storm, and how she dying caused the storm. It would be interesting to see her making mistakes and how she "manipulates" wind/fire to win discussions it would give her alot of character depth and explain her death. But for Chloe lore, Before The Storm was really good
@@percyforsyth I wish for extra-dlcs in different timelines. I want to know what happened to each character, and i want them to explain the plot-holes that were created in chapter 5 and what was originally intended to happen. It would be good for us and give closure to rachel. So if they do create BTS 2, or Extra-DLC under different perspectives (Like play as rachel, kate, nathan, victoria...) it would be the ideal. Like that nightmare scene.
@HandsAnts but isnt that the problem? We get to know Rachel see that she wasnt that perfect as portrait but get left on telling her the truth or not a decision that shouldn't change or explained we they didnt leave. We have chloe hating her step dad, most people at school and not having anything that keeps her there. Especially seeing that LiS 2 has a hole game build around travelling makes it for me pretty obvious that it was planned to a extent as a part where you play Rachel
03:50 I think it would have been something like an harsh motivational self back talk, with harsh i mean something like Chloe saying to herself to maybe control her emotions, behaviors, changing in some sort of toxic ways. Example: “come on Chloe, you’re ridiculous, you should have done this instead of that”. Honestly would have been another add to feel empathy for her or to understand her character even better, I don’t understand the need to cut certain things, if LIS lasted even more hours I think we would all have been even happier. Anyway this doesn’t cancel that they did an amazing job and one of the best video games (this and the whole saga) ever
Kylie brown (VA for Rachel amber) confirmed a cut scene that was supposed to take place in episode 3 during the junkyard, she said it during Bryan Dechart’s playthrough of LIS before the storm as she was invited to be a guest. ( I left a link to the video in which she talks about it if anyone is interested) th-cam.com/video/lmV_P3RIiYU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=HU-sF9EQGtwmJwOi
Amazing video! I also just want to note that Rachels voice actress kylie brown in an interview noted that when Chloe is in the junkyard she looks in the mirror and the mirror shatters, however it got scrapped and never made it into the game unfortunately
Wouldnt backtalk-self be chloe doubting herself? like, we know chloe doesnt think about her actions and always so sure about what she is doing is good and fine. Backtaking self would her be convincing herself that she IS ALLOWED to be an selfish asshole to everyone around her except rachel etc etc
I'm guessing the cut backtalk sequences were going to be just minigames scattered throughout the game that don't particularly have any plot relevance but were just to flesh out Chloe's character and allow her to interact with the world in the way Chloe best excels at. The one with Taylor didn't seem important either. I've heard a lot about LiS's troubled development and cut content but I've never seen anyone dive into BtS. Great video!
Top vid!! The mirror scene people mention here in the comments would've been linked to the self backtalk. What a great scene that would have been! I think they cut out a lot due to time constraints and pressures. I chatted with the Performance Director Webb Pickersgill (up on my channel 😁) and he mentioned how the scriptwriting team tried to avoid giving Chloe too much self-deprecating humour. I wonder if this scene would have been considered Chloe being too harsh on herself for their liking, giving them another reason to cut it
Great video. I only saw a The Sims video with Taylor and Chloe's voice lines a few years ago, but I didn't know there was so much more. And what I think is really great is that you even linked the videos with the songs and the cut voice lines. And the fact that Sera almost killed Rachel (accidentally) makes it all the more understandable why James wanted to keep her away from Rachel (even if he still went way too far) and Sera didn't want to see her daughter.
Loving your LiS content, dude! Also, please tell us all about what's in the background LiS related! The comics, stickers, CDs....!!! I mean an entire video on it :))
I was thinking about either live streaming it or doing a let's play style thing. It wouldn't replace my weekly video so for that stretch there would be 2 a week.
where do you get all of your info from? you have a couple details I haven't heard from before lol as someone who's always hyper fixated on these games' content
Cool vid, where did you get your camera and how much was it? I used to own a Fujifilm Instax back when LiS came out and it broke at some point.. after double exposure got announced, I've been wanting to get back into instant cams
So mine is a one step flash Polaroid camera. It shoots polaroid 600 film. I got it on eBay a few years ago. Fuji film is waaaaay less maintenance than polaroid film (although it's gotten better)
Thanks for the video! I was never the biggest fan of LIS:BTS (it created waaay to many plotholes for my taste; now, when I play with my brain turned off, it is somewhat enjoyable), so I have never delved into the cut content territory. I think I know more than an average player about the things removed/scrapped from the first game since I wanted to learn if the finished product is really what they had in mind since the beginning (especially episode 5 - I love the cosmic time-travel horror vibe that it has, but we can all admit that it’s a huge mess compared to previous episodes), but I know absolutely nothing about BTS’s cut content. There was a lot of surprising info there! I am especially curious about the selling drugs mechanic. I personally think they most likely cut it because it wouldn’t make sense to sell drugs to almost everyone on the campus. Plus, I don’t see BTS Frank splitting the money he earned with Chloe. Sure, they are definitely “close” for a dealer-client relationship in the game; definitely closer than in the first one, but not close enough to actually do that kind of deals. Anyway, thanks for the video once again, I cannot wait for the big cut content one!

Wish there was more Rachel in before the storm like what happened between her and Frank and Jefferson

I knew about Taylor. They really shouldn't have cut her from the game like that. Even her voice actress is listed on IMDB.
Not the skip scenes being cut 🥺 am I the only one who thinks he is a underrated character???

In in Episode 5 of Season 1 where Max talks to her id self?
you have really calming voice
thank you for making these. ive been waiting centuries for a proper video on LIS cut content :)

this is so cool! idk why i haven't looked into lis cut content!
love your energy ♡ excited to see what you upload in the future
We need to go back to the old games and remake them with cut content and some fan stuff in it. Also its nice to see taylor was actually nice sorta
The comic are great! I'd love a deep dive on them.
Another great video! Love the LiS content

Such few subscribers with such great quality and content? Good luck :)
Appreciated! It means a lot hearing that kind of thing.
@@Noer1987 np!!
Can't wait for all the lis stuff games, comic ECT ect
Loving your LiS content, dude! Also, please tell us all about what's in the background LiS related! The comics, stickers, CDs....!!! I mean an entire video on it :))
Didn’t even know there were comics. Would love to see what those were about
I'm looking forward to the cut content (if there is any) for Life is Strange 2. It's my favourite LiS game! Great video.
You earned yourself subscribers!
I would love a video about the comics ! I have the first 3 but I never got around to buying the latest ones
Thx for making this video
Do you plan to do a Double Exposure playthrough? Great Video!
I was thinking about either live streaming it or doing a let's play style thing. It wouldn't replace my weekly video so for that stretch there would be 2 a week.
@@Noer1987 Sounds good! 👍
@@Noer1987would definitely watch!
