This game has good points and bad ones but the bad outweighs the good by far. Pros: -Good concept, you have an entity attached to you and you can switch between your character and the entity. It also jumps around in the timeline which can keep it interesting. Cons: -The freaking controls are horrible. This is one of those games that puts the buttons on the screen to tell you what to hit, the problem is they look …

Introduction Beyond: Two Souls is, for me, the best interactive movie Quantic Dream has ever created. The strongest element is Jodie herself – watching her grow, transform, struggle and evolve feels incredibly real and personal. As a character study, this game hits harder than most fully cinematic films. This is a title I genuinely return to again and again. Pros • powerful emotional story that feels like a complete …

Come for the video game, stay for the absolute masterclass in acting. Elliot page and Wiliam Dafoe put on an incredible performance here. The raw emotion in Jodie's journey - from a terrified kid to a trained CIA operative - is so gripping because the performances feel completely human. It feels less like a traditional game and more like a high-budged, psychological thriller where you hold the controller.

For those who haven't played Beyond: Two Souls yet Story You play as a girl with supernatural powers in staggered story segments. For example: The story consists of 20 parts. You start with part 4, then jump to 10, then back to 2, and so on. A very interesting narrative style that leaves plenty of room for interpretation and speculation. Gameplay Very limited Making choices and many quick-time events In summary If …

One of the most beautifully written story-driven games of the 7th console generation. It’s a real shame we rarely get games like Beyond: Two Souls anymore. While widely known, it remains an underrated cinematic masterpiece. The narrative depth is outstanding, and the way the ending splits into multiple distinct outcomes based on choices you made throughout the entire playthrough makes the journey feel truly …

83% of the 283 Steam reviewers we collected recommend Beyond: Two Souls. The complaint that keeps coming up: terrible controls and camera movement. Deal-breaker or nitpick?
Critics, per Wikipedia
Beyond: Two Souls received polarised reviews upon release. Review aggregator Metacritic described its reception as "mixed". Critics praised Page's character portrayal of Jodie Holmes and Dafoe's performance as Nathan Dawkins, as well as the amount of technical details in the game's animations and graphics. Praise was also generally given toward the elaborate motion capture, interactive storytelling mechanics, emotional soundtrack, and ability to appeal to non-gamers. PlayStation Official Magazine (UK) spoke frankly of a game using quick time events over a more acceptable solution: "you lose explicit control", yet believing Beyond ultimately wins in ways such as its imagery: "PS3's graphical…

I have played a significant number of interactive movies and I can say, story-wise, this is one of the best. Just like works of past from Quantic Dreams.

negative · AI labelView post →IT IS basically a Dark Romance without the sex scenes. I started making a checklist while playing and the game keeps hitting every trope: misunderstood special girl, toxic “only you understand me” supernatural bond, endless trauma dumping, forced bullying scenes, dramatic military conspiracy, powers that are overpowered or useless depending on the scene, fake choices, and nonstop emotional manipulation. At this point I would not even be surprised if a random dark fantasy creature appeared…

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game thinks it's more profound and deep than it actually is. The main character is annoying and unlikeable and way too much of the gameplay is incredibly tedious. The game feels directionless. One second you're living in an homeless encampment and helping a homeless lady give birth, and the next you're performing some ancient Native American ritual. This game also makes a weird choice to jump from time zone to time zone. One second you're an adult Jodie, then you're kid Jodie, and then…

I would also recommend doing one in chronological order just because the timeline got a little confusing. For any achievement hunters, the one for all endings was a bit tedious(rep[laying the same chapters a few times). Game also doesn't support widescreen (cuts off the QTE's entirely so the first two hours were long headbanging moments for me) and the QTE's as a…
