    [No Spoilers] The Awesome Adventures of Captain Spirit is some heartbreaking storytelling

    Posted: 30 Nov 2020 07:12 AM PST

    I'm posting this brief spoiler-free review just in case anybody else was new to the series, and got confused and blindsided by the abrupt "Hey, play this!" introduction to this title. Rest assured that it's well worth it.

    This title (a free download from Steam) pops up once you get a bit into LIS2, so I thought what the heck - I'll just give it a try.

    The protagonist is the youngest I've seen for any LIS title. The story deals deeply with a family split apart by loss, and the protagonist's colorful imagination as a coping mechanism.

    There are moments where the innocence of the main character, contrasted against the increasing bleakness of his grim family conditions, becomes heartbreaking to see.

    It's a short title, and it's not exactly introduced in the smoothest way for somebody just joining the series now (I personally felt it was a bit intrusive, interrupting the flow of LIS2), but it has a theme of innocence lost that cuts even deeper than LIS1, BTS, or LIS2.

    It's an understated tribute to early suffering, and desperate courage in its face, that shares much of the same narrative DNA as Grave of the Fireflies or Life Is Beautiful.

    As a brief parenthetical story, it's a beautiful self-contained tale, deeply moving in its own way.

    [S1] Significance of the Opening Scene

    Posted: 30 Nov 2020 01:15 PM PST

    Apologies if this has already been explored -- I tried to look for this topic on the sub and couldn't find anything!

    I was just wondering what people's thoughts were regarding what the significance of the opening scene might be.

    Like, how does it fit in the overall timeline? Is this nightmare of Max's showing her a glimpse of the "real" reality? Is it even a nightmare at all?

    Perhaps, if we were to accept that this is the *correct* course of things - that Arcadia Bay was meant to be decimated by the tornado - would that mean that THAT is the thing that she is originally meant to prevent, instead of saving Chloe?

    I myself am not sure of what it means, I'm just trying to throw some ideas around while the game is still fresh in my mind.

    Thanks in advance for your comments/thoughts!

    [BTS] Rachel's ladder joke doesn't seem to make sense

    [ALL] Joyce Appreciation Post

    Posted: 30 Nov 2020 12:45 PM PST

    This has been on my mind for quite some time now, but I'm not the one to really plan out what I write, so this is probably just going to have a form of a stream of consciousness, not a proper essay. Oh, well...

    Anyway, my main goal is to appreciate Joyce for her role of being a loving, but also at the same time very incompetent mother. I feel like saying this is redundant, but in real world many people struggle with parenting not only because they weren't ready/didn't want it in the first place; sometimes it's just that they have no clue what to do with another human being, especially since it gets harder and harder to achieve mutual understanding with the child growing up. I feel like in game narratives, however, the parental figure is either mostly flawless and will die a tragic death, or it's the player's job to look after someone younger. Sometimes the parent is the future enemy of the main character. Oh, and Karen and Charles don't count, as it's the same series.

    All of this is obviously from my point of view and my interpretation, and there is a lot of things we don't know (what happened between her and Chloe during the first, say, month after William's death is perhaps the most crucial missing data, and we can only speculate on how exactly it went down), but it seems like what Joyce did was notice Chloe's pain, and then push her off to psychologists, not being able to help her herself. After some unsuccessful attempts she gave up and gradually started getting more and more exhausted by the girl's bad attitude, to the point where she stopped caring about her doing drugs and not getting better (which she also possibly mistaken for the regular, infamous teen rebelliousness). She did care about her school situation though. Meanwhile, Joyce was not managing well herself, so she brought David along and gave him too much of a free hand, perhaps foolishly hoping that the man could get some control over Chloe's misbehavior (I'm not going to discuss David here, let me just say that he actually helped Joyce get out from a very dark place, but also contributed to her and Chloe growing even further apart, since he has caused even more conflict with the "girlie" and became the object of Joyce's attention, which could otherwise still have been directed towards her daughter).

    Joyce is obviously not to blame for Chloe being a troublesome person to offer help to (after all, we don't know how long and hard she had tried before giving up eventually, I assume she actually had lost all hope for changing anything for the better before leaving Chloe alone), but her own expectations are terrible as well, and are what I mostly meant by her being incompetent. Basically, as evident by her behavior influenced by the choices in BtS, she offers Chloe what I think is best described as conditional love. "Give me a part of you and I will reciprocate." It may sound fair, but at that moment Chloe has very little to give, and it is quite obvious that it pains her every time she tries to make an effort to comply to that (the big choice of "be understanding" or "say what you feel", and how terrible the latter affects the meeting with the principal). The text messages coming from the standpoint of "I need my daughter back" (which, to make things worse, is not even true - she seems to be doing just fine with only David around). The genuine belief that the three of them could be a happy family - and being blind of how it's Chloe who'd have to change the most to make that happen - and pushing her daughter and her boyfriend together despite it potentially generating only more tension don't exactly back her up. But the absolute worst thing she does in my opinion is what happens in the parking lot at ep 2, specifically responding to Chloe's "I know I fucked up. I'm a fuck up. I'm sorry." with an angry "Do you even know what you're apologizing for?" (*the quotes are more or less accurate, I don't have time to check them right now). I think it's parenting 101 that when your child uses derogatory terms to describe themselves, you're supposed to disagree no matter what. Because what is happening then is that the child is in a very bad mindset and it really believes it's actually the worst, and is asking you for confirmation, which (if given) is the final nail in the coffin and can make them break down completely. It's not that they necessarily are to be given a free pass for whatever they did wrong, it's just that you don't scold them until they get well enough to handle it. Teens are emotional bombs, and Joyce just set off a nuke, and if it wasn't for Rachel... well, yeah. I might sound very condescending here, but I'm speaking from a perspective of an outsider, whereas Joyce is right there, influenced by various emotions, mental states and whatnot, and as I already said, she probably doesn't know better and misunderstands the signals from Chloe.

    So what I've been trying to show is that Joyce does a really bad job with handling Chloe, but it's arguably an extremely hard task nonetheless, and I think she just has no idea what she's doing (partially due to also being in pain herself). But they are ultimately able to coexist on pretty okay terms even after Rachel's disappearance, as I think their relationship, although flawed, seems somewhat better at the beginning of the first game than it is at the beginning of BtS. They still care for each other (to a point), and I can't bring myself to dislike Joyce, as she seems to be a very pleasant person despite her mistakes. There is no other parental figure (outside of the series) that comes to mind, who would fulfill a similar role in their respective story, and for that I think she deserves appreciation.
