Now people are playing it, can anyone say why it reviewed worse than Heavy Rain?

I would say more emphasis on storytelling rather than gameplay and the lack of your choices feeling as though they have any real impact on the storyline.

With Heavy Rain someone could die and the game continues. WIth this game it seems like no matter what you do each chapter could play out differently but still reach the same end point.

 

Not sure if that all holds true later on though, but as of right it seems that way. Still, if you enjoyed a title like Heavy Rain I am sure you will love Beyond.

Well I really enjoyed Heavy Rain so that's reassuring. However it's a shame about the choices as I enjoyed replaying to see different outcomes. Sticking with my preorder regardless so I guess I'll find out on Friday.
