"When Don't Nod released Life Is Strange 2 episodically over the course of 2019 , it attempted to tackle a wide array of political issues such as police brutality, racism, and immigration through the eyes of two Mexican-American brothers named Sean and Daniel. The pair spend the episodic adventure game on the run from law enforcement after a Seattle cop kills their father and Daniel's latent telekinetic powers activate and kill the officer."
""I feel like there's a lot more depth to this than you're really tackling," McLoughlin said. "I hope I'm not coming across as ignorant or anything because that's not what I'm trying to say. If anything, I want to learn more about it. I want to get into it and I want to understand what's going on a lot more but these things just don't really shine a light on it that much. If anything it is just shining a light on it and then taking the light off "."
Life Is Strange 2 was released episodically in 2019 and engaged directly with political issues including police brutality, racism, and immigration through the perspectives of two Mexican-American brothers, Sean and Daniel. The brothers go on the run after a Seattle cop kills their father and Daniel's latent telekinetic powers result in the officer's death. The game places the pair against racism, abuse, and systemic failures as they travel across the United States. A prominent Let's Player criticized the game's writing in 2019 but later apologized for that critique and acknowledged a need to learn and understand more about the portrayed realities.
