Is Life Is Strange 'Tainted' Due To Recent Allegations? 🤔 Plus, Let's Talk Lost Records! | StrangeCast Episode 69

Folks, welcome back for an all-new episode of Player 1 vs The World's T̶h̶e̶ T̶o̶r̶t̶u̶r̶e̶d̶ StrangeCast D̶e̶p̶a̶r̶t̶m̶e̶n̶t̶! For the uninitiated here, StrangeCast is Player 1 vs The World's ​Life Is Strange fan podcast, where we discuss the Square Enix franchise and developers Deck Nine and Don't Nod Entertainment. For this episode of StrangeCast, Adnan and Adam kick off things with a tease from developer Don’t Nod Montreal about Lost Records: Bloom & Rage. PSA: we recorded this before the ID@Xbox Showcase announcement, so we mainly talk about whether or not we're about to hear which Lost Records: Bloom & Rage character is which (spoiler: we likely are... 😍). Our main focus for this episode is a continuation of the talking points from the last episode of StrangeCast. Adnan and Adam share their post-feelings on the episode around the allegations against Deck Nine and Square Enix. Additionally, the main topic for this episode has the StrangeCast hosts discussing the reputation of the Life Is Strange franchise, Deck Nine and Square Enix going forward.
