beige.party is one of the many independent Mastodon servers you can use to participate in the fediverse.
A home to friendly weirdos. The Grey Gardens of the Fediverse (but beige). Occasionally graphically cacographic. Definitely probably not a cult (though you'll never be 100% sure). Beige-bless 🙏

Book<p>About the franchise Life Is Strange from DONTNOD and Square Enix</p><p>===</p><p>I watched a video essay years ago on the nature of determinism and regret. It used Life Is Strange as the vehicle to discuss a basic storyline and how we perceive choices. The vid made it out that this game was written by cishet white doods trying to write about a young, potentially queer, young woman. It didn&#39;t sound good so I wrote off the game as an interesting discussion on writing, and the concepts the game plays with. Y&#39;know, one to talk about; not one to play.</p><p>Years later, I find myself in a comic/artist-lead Discord server and they were discussing Life Is Strange 2. They sang the praises of the story, the art direction, the soundscape. So I played the first episode since it was free on Steam. </p><p>And I&#39;ve thought about little else since. It is gorgeous. Choices are presented but they make little effect on the story (it seems). It feels like an interactive movie; a two-person character study of brothers overcoming adversity. Discovering who they are, what their goals are, and keeping each other in check and happy. </p><p>And there&#39;s a dog. 13/10. No notes. </p><p>There&#39;s another game called The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit which is set in the Life Is Strange 2 world. A cameo, lots of Easter eggs, and a gorgeous storyline of death, suffering, and hope shining through the cloud of darkness. </p><p>I&#39;m in a very lovey and soft mood now. Raw emotions. </p><p><a href="https://beige.party/tags/LifeIsStrange" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>LifeIsStrange</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/LifeIsStrange2" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>LifeIsStrange2</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/CaptainSpirit" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>CaptainSpirit</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/DONTNOD" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>DONTNOD</span></a> <a href="https://beige.party/tags/SquareEnix" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>SquareEnix</span></a></p>
