The team also emphasised that Tyler's transition was not the result of childhood trauma, with promises of scenes that depict him expressing himself as a boy prior to his mother's death. "Because so many mainstream narratives about trans people are rooted in pain or trauma, it was important to our team to tell a different, more multi-dimensional story with Tyler," the studio wrote. The character was assigned female at birth but identifies as male. Warning that the answers contained spoilers, the team revealed that each of Tell Me Why's multiple endings will have an optimistic future for Tyler, the transgender character who serves as one of the game's two protagonists. The studio added an FAQ to the game's website following a new trailer and release date during yesterday's Xbox Games Showcase. The ability to interact more with environment is an improvement for keeping players immersed, so it's possible that Dontnod fans have another dilemma-filled narrative to look forward this holiday season.Life Is Strange developer Dontnod Entertainment has said it will avoid telling a transgender story "rooted in pain and trauma" in the upcoming Tell Me Why in order to avoid further propagating the stereotype. Sticking to the same storytelling formula is a wise decision, and the story certainly seems intriguing. It is not episodic but throws the whole game at players at once, and the game is not afraid to show a less subtle, more frantic atmosphere, as opposed to Life Is Strange.Īfter Dontnod's success with Life Is Strange, expectations are pretty high for Twin Mirror.
Another theme running through all these games is the revisiting of the past, however, Twin Mirror has a much darker tone and seems to be aimed at an older audience.
Depending on the state of Sam's investigation, there are multiple endings to unlock, similar to Life Is Strange and Dontnod's other new game, Tell Me Why, where player choices determine the story and its endings. The trailer shows glimpses of other characters that are important in Sam's life somehow, and players can choose who they talk to.
