Beyond is an amazing game, most gamers agree. And you cant realy compare a game that was developed for the story first and foremost, use high caliber actors for mocap and tells a realy deep and involved story with Ryzes superficial story.
Ryze is beautfull but that was not what made Heavy Rain and Beyond great games, its because they cna actualy tell the story right.

Anyone who thinks the gameplay is only average, should try the multiplayer portion. I'm on level 300+ and already participated in a local tournament. These people can just add me and we can play a private match so I can teach them some tricks...

Errr...the story of Beyond was pretty darn terrible. It was all over the place, horribly paced, inconsistent and often badly written. The non-linear approach was done just about as badly as I have ever seen and only served to destroy any sense of tension or mystery throughout the story. The story was so bad that someone went through the entire game talking about what was wrong with every single scene (http://daemonpro.tumblr.com/post/72185078716/what-if-beyond-two-souls-was-good-part-1)...The "high caliber actors for mocap" were the only thing good about the game, however even good actors can't make a terrible story good.

And I bet you played the whole game to make your conclusion, didn't just looked for bad reviews To inform yourself of what to complain, right?

No, we should be bashing Heavy Rain and Beyond as much as we do Ryse. ;) |
I can't speak for Beyond, but I do have Heavy Rain and I agree, that game needs to be bashed. The way the killer confesses...so dumb. And then it turns into a saw movie. WTF. I thought I would be playing an interesting mystery game. Maybe a game where I investigate a crime. Instead I play segments as a man with magic glasses. I'm guessing the glasses aren't really magical and the game is just using it as metaphor for that guys mind? I don't know. Quit at the electric scene after crawling through glass. 1/5. Do not recommend.

I watched a complete playthrough of the game (which is why I only spoke of the story and not the gameplay which seems to have its own set of flaws)...I believe that is enough to inform myself of the flaws with the story.

I bet the history must really suck for you to keep watching it for 6h in a masochist way.

I did the same as him and arrived at the same conclusion. 
Watched it with my roommate and we kinda made fun of it though, so that helped.
| Kresnik said: I'm guessing you chose Quantic Dream over say, Telltale, because they develop exclusively for PlayStation which would bring a different kind of argument into the thread? Because Telltale get universally praised a lot more than QD for "linear titles that focus on telling a story and very reliant on QTEs" (as you put it). And that, I suppose, encapsulates the difference. If you do it well, like Telltale continue to do, then there is praise to be had. If you do it badly, like Beyond and Ryse did, then there is little praise. Not a whole lot else to say really. |
I chose QD because I'm in the middle of playing Heavy Rain and they make pretty games.
Simply using the power of common sense... QD makes games with AAA visuals, Telltale does not. Hence, Ryse looks more like a QD game than a Telltale game.
