Life is Strange writer says education is the primary theme of the sequel

It's tough to pin Life is Strange down to a single theme. It's about love and family and personal relationships and sacrifice and growing up. For the sequel, it seems as if that last one will be more prevalent than any others. At this point, it's safe to say that a Life is Strange game is about maturation.

We recently spoke with Life is Strange 2 lead writer Christian Divine about the intersectional themes the series has focused on. Divine believes education is most important here, especially as it pertains to elder brother Sean (16) guiding his younger sibling Daniel (9).

"The theme of this game is going to be because you're brothers on the road in this desperate situation, education and experience -- making choices for your brother, the right decisions -- and how they'll affect the outcome of the game," Divine said. "Trying to be a parent when you're 16-years-old in this situation. Mainly, education is primary theme of the game. Of course, there are going to be other characters and many other issues are going to come up. It won't be just one. It's not just about one."
