#Tell me why skin

Rather, when Alyson heard her brother calling for help with the Bond, she stabbed their mother in the back to defend Tyler. Luckily, most familiar faces in Delos Crossing are accepting of Tyler's transition, even if some of their views are a bit misguided.Īlyson's demons come at the end of Chapter One when it's revealed that Tyler wasn't the sibling that killed his mother.

#Tell me why skin

Tyler, though he's already grown comfortable in his own skin as a trans man, must face and confront friends of their past that are not accustomed or aware of the change. While the twins work to rebuild their relationship throughout the game, the siblings also battle their own demons. The task between them now is to sell Mary Ann's still-empty house, but when they begin to sort through the objects of their childhood, the twins rediscover their twin telepathy, the Bond. After an awkward yet positive reunion between the siblings when Alyson picks her brother up, they take a ferry and return to Delos Crossing. In the first playable moments of Tell Me Why, it's now ten years later, and a grown-up Tyler is cleaning out his dorm in Fireweed where he went to juvenile hall for the murder of his mother, while a grown-up Alyson has been living with Eddy, the chief of police in their hometown of Delos Crossing as well as a good family friend. RELATED: Twin Mirror from Life is Strange Dev Gets Release Date This is the biggest question that the twins face: why their mother was in this state and if she was actually pointing a gun at her son. She had seemed upset by Tyler having his hair cut off, and Tyler claims that his mom, Mary Ann, was trying to kill him. I have now (with regret as I would imagine it would have been quite good), I have deleted the game.The game opens up to a child, a young Tyler, telling the police that he stabbed and killed his own mother after she chased him down. I thought if this is just in the first hour or so of the game, what more to come. I was trying to plough through the game, but as it 'got going' the game was slightly 'clichéd' (even though it was trying very hard not to be given the subject), but then there were topics on there that being a Brit really didn't agree with, such as 'trophy hunting', 'hibernation killing' (why?) and the continued used of Americanisms/words. I realise that DONTNOD want to ‘keep it real’, but to non-American’s it may be an idea just to have a basic glossary of words that may be unfamiliar to non-American’s, so that they (non-American’s) can make ‘full choices’, rather than just ‘half choices’ which may alter the game but not in a conscious way.

In the previous games, whilst they have again been aimed at American audiences, it only went as far a ‘Pop culture’ and it was usually relative easy to ‘work-out’ what was happening (though again there were times when it could get a bit confusing). For a non-American therefore, this game is difficult as a ‘true choice’ cannot be made, because of not understanding of basic American indigenous culture. The problem is that unless you are American, you are unlikely to understand or even be aware of these terms, thus some of the choices could be ‘ill-fated’ which in a game like this matters. I know that DONTNOD want to ‘keep it real’ and natural between the two protagonists, but some words such as ‘Potlatch’ and ‘Tlingit’, both to do with Native Americans and their culture. I know that DONTNOD want to ‘keep it This is game is aimed primarily at American Audiences, both in the dialogue and phraseology of dialogue. This is game is aimed primarily at American Audiences, both in the dialogue and phraseology of dialogue. I enthusiastically recommend that you add these games to your to-play list.Īs it does not hit the amazing score, It is still an extremely good game. Character teleports into position before dialogues. The Memories can be slightly confusing at times. The replayability is alright, but i don't see somebody replay it more than 5 times. The Story is well made, and keeps you interested. I didn't notice bugs or performance issues during my playthrough. The Voice Acting is fantastic, sets the mood for the story most of the times. The Visuals are great, both the graphics and the animations are done perfectly. The GamePlay is perfectly made for a game like this.
