When one of them comes out with a line like "I was hurting and I didn't feel like you heard me" they just feel like caricatures. These characters don't sound like young adults from rural Alaska who've had their lives ripped apart by a traumatic event they talk like you'd expect TV show teens to talk in a therapy session scene. I'm not crazy about the writing, though, specifically how sanitized and clinical it can feel when characters open up to eachother. It's a lovely looking game, too, and when they stretch their cinematic chops I find it really impressive the intro cutscene of Chapter 2, the slow-mo musical montage of the twins playing around their house as both adults and children was amazingly well done. I really like the twins and I love the whole premise of the creepy twin connection mixed with some fairy tale styling. It's easily my favourite of Dontnod's interactive storytelling stuff since the first Life is Strange. I finished the second chapter yesterday after getting sidetracked with other games, and I really like this.
