Oxenfree: Life and Death

Oxenfree, released in 2016 by Night School Studios, is about to get it's sequel (hopefully) so I decided to finally play the original after it has been sitting in my steam library for 10 years. What I found was probably one of the best narratives I've experienced in recent memory, ripe with mystery, intrigue and a strangely good amount of comedy, Oxenfree hits that strange sweet spot of fun adventure and heartfelt tragedy. This video is my PERSONAL interpretation of the events of Oxenfree so if you're craving an opinion of the game to ride on then this is the video for you (kidding you can have your own). Anyway, I think Oxenfree is about cherishing life and accepting the death that comes with it. Subscribe is you want more of this kind of content or if you like me (which you are obligated to)
