Sweet Disposition
The appeal of Life is Strange is that it IS supposed to be a 2010's Tumblr drama. It succeeds at evoking this sense of young-adult awkwardness that (unfortunately) many can relate to, especially with regards to the characters. But, besides everything else, there is a flaw that contradicts this achievement and is always present when playing. Despite the developers intent on remaining realistic, Life is Strange is still idealized in the same way other teen/young adult dramas are.
