Life is Strange RP Discord Server is up!

This server includes LiS, LiS:BtS and LiS2. The only taken characters at the moment are Kate and Warren from the first game, so there are many options to choose from! If you don’t want to roleplay, don’t worry - you can join the server to simply chat about the franchise, too.

The roleplays between original LiS and LiS2 are done in different timelines, but there are options for alternative universes in which you can interact with the characters as if they’d be in the same timeline. For example, Max and Daniel can meet and chat about their powers! 

This server is mainly made just for fun. The link to it will be added in a reblog. Feel welcome to join!

One Year On: Life is Strange 2 Critique

December 3rd marks a year since Life is Strange 2 ended. I was inspired by @smitethepatriarchy‘s text posts (here, but there are several other answered asks worth reading) and @suhaplays’s text post (here) criticizing Life is Strange 2 to write a critique about how Life is Strange 2 handled certain themes and social issues.

(tw: gun violence, police brutality, animal death, incarceration, racism. In this essay, I use the word “queer” in a reclaimed sense, as a queer person myself.)

Great Review. I’d just like to add that I found the so-called happy resolution (”Blood Brothers”) of them living in Mexico to be somewhat problematic since they were basically forced to flee their home country and live a life of crime as quasi-gangsters. Similarly, I dislike how DONTNOD presented Redemption as the “correct” choice, (being by far the longest and most developed of all 4 endings) and basically punished Sean (and the player by extension) for crimes he did not commit. Sean’s cultural background was never shown as a source of pride or joy but rather the source of all his problems. When it comes to the depiction of racism and violence against minorities in media, there’s a very thin line between commentary and exploitation. This game definitively struggled to stay on the right side of the line. Looking back, there were definitely things they could have done to make it a more empowering narrative rather than a traumatizing ordeal, (especially for PoC players who have had to deal with racism in real-life). And I can’t help but feel like this was due (at least in part) to the of lack of any writers or consultants with actual lived experience regarding these sensitive subjects. I hope that like us, DONTNOD will reflect on the flaws of this game and use the lessons learned to create better, more balanced narratives for all players in their future projects.

A Brother's Selfless Love

Troubled youngling, raise that head of yours.

In your possession is the remedy that cures.

In all shapes and colors are the wounds scattered across your canvas.

Its artist a timeless mystery, you can't help but feel anxious.

Fear not, little one, fear not.

Remember all the battles you've already fought.

For I know no stronger soul, nor a braver fighter

Whose heavy heart never seemed to feel any lighter.

Follow him, for he is your sun.

Only for you he was ready to run.

Be patient, my child, you can survive until another dawn

And be greeted by his warm embrace, as expected from your Sean.

Nothing but a monster is what you think you've become.

Too cruel of a damage, it can't ever be undone.

But don't you know a monster can never be one

When they’re loved so genuinely by someone?

You were never a monster, my little one

But a sunflower loved dearly by its sun.

A brother's selfless love, the most precious gift you've ever received.

For as long as you can remember, in you he's always believed.
