    Tangentially related, but it's kind of amazing to me how dontnod made Remember Me, which was just all about sick combos and sci-fi memory editing fuckery, and then they made Life is Strange, where you're a teenage lesbian walking around and dealing with trauma.

    Don't get me wrong LiS is one of the best games I've ever played, but I genuinely don't get how Gamer Bros absolutely hated Remember Me, but love Life is Strange. Dudes will really spend a decade bitching about walking simulators and lgbt themes in games and blue hair and female protagonists, and then their favorite game they've ever played will be a walking simulator with a female protagonist whose girlfriend has blue hair.
