Delighted but disappointed – Life is Strange: Before Storm Review

I watched BTS on YouTube bc I didn't have a card attached to my phone to buy it. I read various criticism about the graphics. I didn't understand what ppl meant bc everything looked flawless on the YouTube tutorial movies. I just bought the game a few days ago with my new card. While I love the game, Chloe, and the dialogue, I was disappointed to find out that the flawless YouTube run-throughs were not what I got when I bought the EXPENSIVE game! Somehow, the YouTube movies of BTS fixed all these weird glitches in the graphics. In the game that you pay a lot of money, characters were shot at wrong angles and some were even cut out completely! While I don't care that much, it does take away the emotional impact in certain scenes. The Youtube tutorials were somehow able to fix these filming issues, as well as David’s mouth in episode 1, which the game didn't do. Again, I'm not that bothered, but the game should have clean editing the entire game. The reviews aren't lying when they say the game crashes and you can't continue. I can't get passed the hospital scene, and it upsets me when I see other people complaining about the same things and about them happening at the same moments. We've all complained for months, and these glitches don't look like they'll be fixed by the company. That bugs me and discourages me if the company continues to charge us for something as problematic as this. Also, in the YouTube movies, they dressed Chloe in many outfits I didn't have access to with my season pass. I liked the tank tops she wore. The exclusive outfits are apparently ”deluxe” but I don't know what the deluxe edition means since I bought the whole season pass. Spending 13 plus tax should give you absolutely everything the game has to offer. The original Life is Strange downloaded fine for me. BTS took FOREVER! And I still can't complete the game bc of the constant crashing. I never buy games or spend $13 on entertainment in one day. This game shouldn't have so many glitches for that much money, especially since the glitches seem like they could be simple to fix. I love the game. I don't regret buying it, but I am disappointed with these many problems. I'm not the only one. I also never write reviews. The story is 5 stars, the glitchy app itself is closer to 1 or 2 stars.
