You also get to do some detective work, helping Sean to locate Daniel and collect evidence to convince him that the situation he finds himself in may not be as safe as he thinks. The plot flows well, starting with a daring escape, and adding in some peril where you have to try and keep Sean safe as he travels across the desert. However, in Faith, Life is Strange 2 makes its own redemption of sorts. But my gripe was it could have been done with a more interesting storyline. I felt that the previous episode (apart from the end, at least) was more about developing the relationship between the brothers, which I now see was needed to explain Sean’s desperate hunt for Daniel for a chance of redemption and Daniel’s reluctance to go with him. The good news is that Episode 4: Faith is definitely a notch up and manages to keep interest levels piqued throughout. It also hints towards a decision that Daniel needs to make – does he still have faith in his brother’s love and promise of a better life, or does he choose to stay put in, what he thinks, is stability and safety? The title of the episode – Faith – is a clue to the situation Sean finds Daniel in. The second half of the story sees Sean desperately trying to convince his brother to come with him to Mexico. This change in location and break from Daniel (who was starting to get rather annoying in the last episode) makes a welcome change. The rest of the episode focuses mainly on Sean’s solo journey across the Nevada desert, where you will have to make some difficult decisions in order to survive. Desperate to find his sibling, he decides to make his escape. Sean is also facing a transfer to a young detention center, accused of the murder of the police officer that started the brothers’ life on the run all the way back at the start of Episode 1. We know that he has been there a while – and has no idea where his younger brother Daniel is. The story starts with Sean, the older brother, injured in a hospital bed in Humboldt County, California.
