Lost "Life is Strange" MATI episodes bounty - An extremely optimistic attempt to finally complete the MATI archive. (NOT Life is Strange: Before the Storm, Life is Strange: 2, or Life is Strange: True Colors)

[Thé au lait]

The irony of there being lost materials for a guy who constantly tells people to archive everything is not lost on me

He has to tell us constantly because nobody does, and people rarely listen lol

 

[Rain Team Pepe]

I have also tried finding these a few times with no luck.

With the remastered version out,
It's the ideal time for a "Bad at video games" Remastered stream!

 

[Farmer Fletcher]

null should replay it.

Due to Josh's incredibly abysmal memory retention, he probably doesn't even remember much from the first Life is Strange game. He should play the remastered version of Life is Strange on stream at some point. It's the same game but "better graphics" (barely).

Also the new Life is Strange game is coming out soon so Jewsh better play it.

 

[oh no its pipkun]

I hope he does this is Max all grown up.

 

[KISS]

Since the thread is slowing down and the current strategy of hoping for someone that saw this thread to find the lost episodes seems less and less fruitful, I've thought of a very desperate plan B:

I've written out every username that appeared in the chat of the first and last Life is Strange stream. The plan is to check if any of the usernames link to a KF account or a plausible social media account and try to contact them asking whether or not they have an archive of the remaining episodes.

I've attached said usernames in the spoiler box and in a separate .txt file:

The usernames that start with "[YT]" are the usernames that came from the YouTube stream and are not included in the actual username that appeared in chat. Remove that bracket while looking up YouTube usernames.

Also a head's up: Since the quality of the streams were 720p at best and the chat overlay font blended the "i" and "l" letters almost indistinguishably, I sometimes had to take an uncertain guess as to which of the two letters a given username had. If you try to find a link to a username that has an unconventional name, try swapping the "i"s and the "l"s just to make sure. Same could go for "O"s and "0"s, but this case isn't as prominent and only 2-5 usernames possibly had this issue.

EDIT: I forgot to include 3 additional usernames I left out of the list, because I didn't want to try transcribing them into plain text in fear of doing it wrong:

 

[Too Many Catgirls]

Why would Null play games he hates on stream instead of ones he enjoys?

Because he's bad at video games!

 

[Relinquish]

EDIT: I forgot to include 3 additional usernames I left out of the list, because I didn't want to try transcribing them into plain text in fear of doing it wrong:

I can only help with the second one since I know Russian. The username is Юлия Макаренко. Unfortunately i do not know Hebrew or Japanese

 

[Fëanor Curufinwë]

ニッククッニ is the Japanese one.

 

[my only throwaway account]

every few days I return to this thread and look at nothing but these 3 lines and pray that one is below 1.0

NOTICE OF REWARD INCREASE

---

Interest has died down with little results. I have procured additional XMR and am raising the reward to 2.0 XMR per video. (0.5XMR per category)
As there have been no claimants to any rewards, no disbursements are to be made at this time.

 

[Jotch]

NOTICE OF BOUNTY TERMINATION​

This bounty has not been claimed and attention has died down.
In the interest of freeing my funds I state that the bounty will be called off on EOD July 28th, 2025 GMT.
A bounty may be accepted after this date but no promises are made.

 

[oh no its pipkun]

I've given up hope. shame we'll never get a proper life is strange 2 playthrough, one without the internet disruptions and game crash. it was pretty fun otherwise.

 

[TORtlEMUStRaNSUS]

I can't even find archives of his life is strange 2 playthroughs.

 

[Nonronic]

I can't even find archives of his life is strange 2 playthroughs.

For real? I should have severely compressed mp3s of them, but let me see later if I can't find videos. Check the MATI archive thread if you haven't already.

 

[oh no its pipkun]

Episode 4 is mangled due to stream.me issues. Based on the duration of the other two streams, it looks like at least 5 minutes are missing. Josh streamsniped Kittystyles during the playthrough so it's unknown how much longer the stream would have been.
