Beyond Two Souls

So hiding QTE prompts means 'no QTEs'? That's worse than actual QTEs.

 

Anyway, game looks good so far.

 

 

BTW Heavy Rain looks like sh*t in that video. I don't remember it looking that bad.

Down and out in the Uncanny Valley with Ellen Page and Willem Dafoe

In 'Beyond: Two Souls,' David Cage and Quantic Dream blur the lines between film, video games, and reality

 

....

Onscreen prompts are more subtle, as well. Gone are the jittery,
pulsating displays that peppered Heavy Rain, replaced with a less
intrusive menu of options. There are no health meters or directional
indicators — just tiny white dots that pop up to suggest an action,
without context.

.....

As with Indigo Prophecy, most onscreen actions and movements
are controlled with dual analog sticks, without requiring much
precision. To open a door, for example, the player must mimic Jodie’s
action with the right stick, pulling it either to the left or right.
According to the studio, the goal is to prevent the gameplay from
interfering with Beyond’s narrative.

....

At this point, it’s far too early to pass judgment on Beyond.
The broader scope of the story remains a mystery, and Cage and his team
have plenty of time to remedy their gameplay issues. It is clear,
though, that Beyond is the most expansive, and perhaps most
tantalizing title to come out of Quantic Dream’s studio — a game that,
even based on its imperfect state, seems primed to stage a dazzling last
hurrah for Sony’s PS3.

I loved HR, Was so awesome and something fresh and true Mature Theme Game released in years. But TBH, I loved WD more than HR.

 

This doesn't mean Im not excited for Beyond 2 Souls.... Anything labelled and made by Cage & Co. (QD), I would love to play atleast once!

Whether its Indigo Prophecy/Heavy Rain or Beyond Two Souls....

The only reason i am excited for this is because it will give me a chance to brush the dust of my PS3.

 

And this for me.

 

Although I think TLOU will come out before this. Either way, it'll be the first game I play on the PS3 since Journey which I played mid-2012.

 

The cover does look nice. It's kind of sad that a cover that doesn't follow the usual trend of guns/men/explosions is so rare that it gets praise amongst gamers. Wonder if local replication will mean the cover changes somewhat (hindi titles and what not). What would they call it? "Do aatma ke paar"?
