1/19/2024 0 Comments Tell me why is tyler transGiven his place as reportedly the first transgender playable character in a major release, Dontnod is understandably meticulous in its approach, avoiding deadnaming him when looking over history and events that happened before he started his transition. One of the key talking points of Tell Me Why ahead of release was the fact that Tyler is a trans man. Although its three episodes do need to cover a lot in a short amount of time, being strict with the player and leaving more bittersweet notes might have made it feel more impactful. The game can feel a little too binary in terms of choices, and much like Life is Strange closure can be found a little too cleanly and the exposition can be a little too heavy. It's an intoxicating setting, leaving Tell Me Why tied up in character relationships and old wounds. It's a town that has never truly healed from Mary-Ann's death, but that cannot address its past. Delos Crossing itself has lashings of the small town vibe of Arcadia Bay, although it's a bit more sparse than Life is Strange's setting, reliant on beautiful vistas more than the complex web of Twin Peaks-style drama. To Dontnod's credit Tell Me Why does deliver a well structured and paced tale, particularly within its final episode where everything comes to a head.
