But see that's not what it is at all. The whole point of the game is that the player shapes the story. Every action and decision you make affects the path the story takes in either small or large ways. You don't just accomplish goals to make the story progress on a linear path. (Which, by the way, is more than I can say for most "true" video games.) I love movies but Heavy Rain engrosses you in the story in a way that no movie can. Like it or not, it is so much more than just QTE's that I just can't understand how anyone can see it as just pushing buttons. However, I respect your opinion and understand that everyone has different tastes. To each his own I guess. |
Well, that's the thing. From the couple reviews I've read, there doesn't appear to be much that is affected by your interaction. I hope that's wrong, because I'd be much more interested in the game. Like I said, I'm really wavering on whether or not to get Heavy Rain. I'm not sure if I'll enjoy it or not. From the demo, I'm afraid it'll get tedious. But, if your guiding the story really does make a significant difference in how it progresses, then I'd very much like to get it.
