Hey all! I've been working on a small mod for Lost Records on PC and wanted to show where it's at.

SELF-REC lets Swann flip the camcorder round and film herself. You can capture memoirs in SELF-REC mode, so it adds a bit more variety and fun for clip editing.

Fun fact: "selfie" wasn't a thing back then, so I went hunting through old camcorder manuals to see what they actually called "self-recording", hence the name.

Still a few bugs to iron out before it's ready for release. Would this be something you'd use?

I created this video to mimic the light from the Abyss and projected it onto myself when I live streamed the game. Figured I'd share in case anyone else wanted to do something similar. I thought it turned out pretty cool.

whhHHY DID THEY HAVE TO DO MY PRECIOUS BABY GIRL LIKE THAT BRO WHYYY. I‘m gonna punt a cinder block through a window, IM GONNA BE SICK!!!

Kat, my beautiful precious baby girl 😭😭😭 You will not be forgotten. Unequivocally, my GOAT forever.

Some photos I took to celebrate her bday ♡

Is there official merch of this game?

If not there should be! Been dying to get the dinosaur t-shirt

I’m wondering if it is worth it to get the game during Steam sale. I played some Life is Strage games before and I like them. However, I prefer platonic relationship and focusing on friendship with no romance (which is kinda possible in Life is Strange)

So without spoilers and considering my gameplay preference, the storyline and graphics, do you guys think it is worth it to buy the game?

EDIT : thanks for your insights guys! I bought it and will try playing the game later. Hope it’ll be fun!

love this game so much gonna play it again soon, was wondering if people made choices based on what they themselves would do or what you think swann would do or just another character you’ve made up in your head would do?

i’m such an insane perfectionist that i would go back to menu and restart the convo if i lost hearts with one of the girls so i think this time i’m gonna play based on what i would do and see where that takes me 🥲 nervous to see who is and isn’t gonna be my friend by the end

happy october LRBR fans!! I thought I'd try something different and wrote a short story featuring the gang getting up to spooky shenanigans - you can check it out here! LINK

was my first published story in a while so I apologize for poor grammar or mistakes! <3

I wish we could have played this day in the game. :-(

I found LR:B&R a couple of weeks ago and I am now obsessed with Nora and Swann's romance. I totally gasped when I first saw adult Nora cuz she was a total babe!!

The last scene with adult Snora with the almost kiss has been on repeat in my head, the whole scene is so intense, I truly enjoy the adult Nora hints that she never stopped loving Swann even after 27 years. After peeking at Nora's phone with Mel's text I wonder if they are divorcing, Nora not responding was so sus.

I actually ship everyone with Swann, or Nora and Kat too they are adorable, all of them have their very sweet moments but I dunno Snora had me in a chokehold, I guess it's because it carries so well into their future selves (in my opinion). I love Autumn but hers felt less intense, and our lil Kat's still need a conclusion (I read DN is kinda in trouble but I hope they can get funding for Tape 3).

I fell in love with this game and the 4 girls, truly a masterpiece. Even if it liked me to freak out at the shadows lol

slide 3: the camp does exist in-universe! you can find banners for it in swanns bedroom

Theyre one of my wifes favorite bands as is, so naturally we had to get tickets after playing through the game! We were wondering if any other fans of the game and band were here too :)

I lost all my data from Tape 1. I was playing on my Steam Deck in offline mode because I’m traveling, and it suddenly shut down. When I opened the game again, my progress was completely reset and I’d have to replay everything from the beginning. 😭

I really don’t want to go through Tape 1 all over again. If anyone has a save file for Tape 2 where you chose to romance Kat, could you please share it with me?

I just want to continue my Kat route without replaying the entire first tape 💔

I was looking through my screenshots on the ps5, and noticed that when Corey picks Kat up you can see "Fuck Corey" written on her arm. I thought it was pretty funny, and just a small detail I hadn't noticed before hehe

i feel like am so proud back in a day when i played this scene i pick this Beat so carefully that it turn into one of my best memories in this Game.

it sounds so Badass!

I’m not sure if this has been said before but on my first playthrough I immediately put together that Autumns earrings were for her and Nora but it took me a few more playthroughs to realize her whole outfit is a representation of The Abyss. Even her necklaces represent Swann and Kat “falling”. Her open jacket is supposed to reflect the glowing patterns we see while the black undershirt is the pit itself.

I only learned about LR:B&R a few months back after playing LiS:R and was looking for similar games. I got the “good” ending and collected all the trophies on my first playthrough—and I’m hesitant to play again because I don’t want to possibly tarnish the feels I got from the story.

But my husband is playing now and I’m watching—I’m completely amazed at how well done this game was made. I’m seeing how differently dialogues and relationships can progress based on the player’s choices. Being mindful of each character’s personality and temperament and seeing the same approach doesn’t necessarily work for each is more obvious to me as I watch him play. I truly think Dontnod is the best at making art like this, and I hope we’ll see them survive and make more in this genre.

But I’m also cringing a little at my husband’s choices in his game, because I suspect he’s headed for one of the “not so good” endings. He’s a little less patient with people than I am, and it is definitely showing in how he plays the game!

She reminds me of someone... Swann?!..

Characters from the upcoming game "Warlock: Dungeons & Dragons". Obviously, any resemblance is purely coincidental.

(I will be comparing Lost records to life is strange 1 and 2 because they the only other don't nod games I have played.)

I know that there are different types of games for different types of gamers, but I expected more from Don't Nod. I expected the story to be able to compete with life is strange 1's story, but for me it just doesn't.

The first tape was just too boring, and at some points it feels like a message is being jammed down my throat. The games message has every corporate no offense box checked. it has lgbtq, body positivity, diversity, white straight male as villain, anti-hunting, and anti bullying. I'm not saying these are bad things, but the game in tape 1 focuses on these aspects more than creating a good story. There are no hard hitting topics in tape 1 like you would see in life is strange 1 or 2.

I would be OK with the message if the game packaged it in an entertaining story, like life is strange 2 did. If tape 1 didn't have any messages it would be 5 times more boring so I will cut it some slack.

The main villains are nowhere near the main villains in life is strange, there are no crazy plot twists that I remember (other than Kat having cancer), And tbh I am not really interested in romance between some 16 year olds.

Why do the characters need to be 16? The characters could have been 18 and the story would remain mostly the same. I think the game would've been better if the characters were about to graduate high school and were moving out of their parents house to live together in a spooky cabin, there would be so much more room to include adult topics. It would have been like a 90's coming of age movie kinda.

Corey is the most boring villain ever. I can't even express how much disappointment I felt with the writing of his character. Does his character get better in tape 2?

There are some good moments, but most of the dramatic moments give me second hand embarrassment. Like the one scene where the group of girls play at the blue spruce. That scene made me want to just Alt-F4 and never want to open the game again.

The soundtrack for tape 1 is lackluster. I don't remember a single song other than the main menu music and that horrid song that plays at the blue spruce. When the soundtrack gets good it is added in at the worst moments like the wormhole scene.

Maybe I am playing the game with too high of expectations.

It is still better than DE. Lol.

Should I play tape 2? Does the game get any better? I didn't like life is strange 1 or 2 at first so maybe I just need to engage with the story more.
