Mindful Games - Life is Strange (Patreon)

This was a tricky game to navigate for this show. I wanted enough footage to highlight the points I was making, and give Max and friends enough screen time to talk about their experience in their own voice. But at the same time, the 5 episodes of Life is Strange are a minefield of spoilers. So while it might seem like the scenes repeat a little bit, and I didn't even mention some of the bigger characters, I wanted to keep the talk focused on the themes of the game and not specific events. This game is also due for a remake this year, so my efforts are oddly timed. Aside from the visuals (which admittedly can get a little wonky with age) most of these points should still be relevant whenever it re-launches.
