When was the last time you put on some headphones, played To All of You by Syd Matters, and pretended you were the main character of some indie film? Do it today! It’s what Max Caulfield would want

What can I say I like feeling awful

Fun fact I actually think the games use of Mountains is my personal favorite needle drop in LiS….

*loving

I say this fully living LIS, but that game has some problems with its writing and performances that are made much easier to swallow thanks to how the music acts as a crutch to lean on. It’s genius actually! It’s why LIS might be THE best use of licensed music in video games!

Don’t nod has talked about the music (especially syd matters) having been around since the earliest stages of development on LIS. It’s almost like a concept album, or even a musical in how those specific tracks are used not just to underline but to communicate the games emotional beats

A lot of people have written about the music of life is strange, my specific take on it here however is that the music is very much the pillar that holds up everything else in the game. It’s an intrinsic part of LIS’s DNA and I don’t think the game would be a classic without it

ICYMI, I dropped a new album last Friday. Proud of this project and the intent behind it. If you like hearing artists figure it out in real time, or just want to hear me do a dark as hell Vogue cover, check it out.

I once took a class in undergrad all about the vampire in media and I’ve never moved on lol

All I’m saying is if someone wanted to give me a code to bloodlines 2 I would go absolutely ham on writing about it

Finally, a good vampire video game to sink your teeth into Narrative RPG Cabernet let's players decide what kind of vampire to be in a town full of potential friends and victims.

Anyway go play Cabernet

God I wish I could’ve reviewed bloodlines 2 😭😭

So what I’m hearing is Cabernet is still the best game about being a vampire released this year?
