Night In The Woods: Do You Always Have A Choice?

An analysis of Night In The Woods, which is definitely one of my favourite games now. Most narrative games are driven by the choices of the player, but most of the choices in Night In The Woods seem inconsequential. This video essay analyses how NITW uses familiar gaming conventions and mechanics to explore the very nature of choice in a universe that doesn’t care. Thanks for watching! I spent a particularly long time editing this one. Wanted to do some more creative transitions given the graphic style of the game. If you have any thoughts on the ideas in this video, or just your interpretation of the film in general, please leave them down in the comments. :) _____________________________ ► Twitter: ► Tumblr:
