Beyond: Two Souls

An absolute masterpiece. Bought this as the first game on my new pc and i was absolutely amazed, the game mechanics were cool and the story was an absolute cinema. 10/10 game if you ask me, hope anyone who reads this will buy it as soon as possible.

One of the greatest story games I've ever played. Played on PS4. Played here. 9.5/10. Play with a controller.

I hated the controls, clunky and frustrating from the start. The story dragged so badly at times I thought the game had frozen. Even on sale, this was a painful and disappointing experience. After an hour, I had no desire to keep playing.

Played it for a full day till the end. Had fun. Pro: game and story are interesting. Keeps me engaged. Con: once you start the dual mode you can't switch to single player mode and continue. Had to play with two controllers and switch between em. Crazy. Also controls and movements are not very userfriendly. Still worth the money tho!

The story is really good and entertaining, but near the end, it gets a bit harder to stay connected with it. Still, if you're into story-driven games, it's definitely worth playing at least once.

I really wanted to enjoy this game, but the gameplay induced pretty severe motion sickness when exiting the main character's body to float around, had to stop playing.

Worst among Detroit: Become Human, this, and Heavy Rain. The storytelling is weird, with at least 2 main chapters irrelevant to the main story. There are very few choices with consequences, most of which do not really matter except for the epilogue scene. QTE during combat often comes without a prompt, and some of those are unintuitive. (If you often fail some QTE without knowing why, try moving the mouse really really quick.)

Good visuals and graphics, but bad writing, gameplay, music. Overall don't play, go play detroit become human and heavy rain.

Actually, pretty good. I came to this game with the lowest expectations possible, because is a david cage game, and i was pleasantly surprised...mostly. The game is MOSTLY good, but oh boy the quality is all over the place. Here is the thing, if you want to do your game super hyper realistic, you are gonna fail, you are gonna have uncanny moments, some cutscene to action transitions feel, most unnatural. The ui could have been better ( using pointy arrows instead of dots is such an obvious fix to the ui i don't know how they didn't think of it). The extras are very interesting, and it shows it was a passion project for the director.

Love the story, love the looks of the game - but the controls, oh my god the controls! Sometimes it decides you should press buttons that have never been used before, sometimes you press them and still don´t succeeed (looking at you stupid rockface that made me fall off a bunch of times) Sometimes you are just expected to figure out the controls for yourself. It really makes it obvious that this is a console port and nobody had PC controls in their mind when coding this.

An emotional journey I’ll never forget. Beautiful story, amazing acting, and moments that made me cry five times. One of the best narrative games ever. 11/10.

Eu realmente gostei desse jogo, quando abri ele pela primeira já sabia que seria algo muito bom já que no passado já havia jogado um jogo deste estúdio, mas este jogo em específico me superou as expectativas, me impressionei muito com as mecânicas do Aiden que são muito bem feitas e funcionam muito bem, vale ressaltar que os gráficos deste jogo são realmente muito bons e o jogo é muito bem optimizado sem nenhum travamento aparente durante a minha gameplay. Por último mas não menos importante a história desse jogo é o ponto mais forte na minha opinião, e o que também tornou esse jogo tão especial para mim, simplesmente o roteiro é maravilhoso e ele te prende muito bem com missões interessantes e que as vezes até vão te desafiar, e sempre com reviravoltas, e obviamente, quando possível te dando escolhas que vão mudar o rumo da história e futuramente te liderando para finais diferentes. Passando para os pontos negativos do jogo gostaria de ressaltar apenas os dois que mais me incomodaram, a câmera dependendo da parte do jogo que você está pode ser um pouco inconveniente. Outro ponto que não me agradou tem haver com o sistema de combate do jogo, na minha opinião não me agradou o modo como nós desviamos e atacamos deslizando o mouse, mas isso é de pessoa para pessoa, não me impediu em nada de jogar o jogo, mas só achei meio sem sal e que poderia ter sido implementado o uso de quick time events em conjunto com isso. Eu recomendaria esse jogo tanto para pessoas que já tem vivência com jogos eletrônicos tanto para pessoas que não tem a prática de jogar pois realmente, dependendo da dificuldade, não é um jogo complicado. 9.5/10.

QTEs are very problematic and add no value. Controls are bad. this is really just a visual novel with a lot of frustration added in. its a shame. a better focus on playability could have made this an enjoyable game.

9/10 i only take one point for the controls being very impractical and bad for pc users. out side of that the game is amazing with a great story some good characters nothing to complain about this could be turned into a movie and hit the top of every chart. i would love to see more or another like it.

I haven't finished this game yet but its perfect for people like me who aren't very good at games but want to try playing some more difficult ones! The game's story line is so good and the main character(or the person you play as) is relatable and likeable! I also love that I got this game for 5$ but thats a different story.

Excellent game. Chronological order should be the default option to play this game, it would make the game much easier to follow. The original order makes it feel choppy at times. Nonetheless, I give it a 9.2/10.

I got this game because I love games with rich story and I wanted to check this out after I had played Life Is Strange: True Colors. I must say that this game really delivers when it comes to the story even though the controls take some getting used to and what I love most is that there are two ways you can play the game. One is how the game was meant to be played in order of the events and then the other one I think it was the way it was first released. No matter which way you chose to play it you won't be left disappointed with the story. There were moments that were really gutwrenching and others that brought me to tears. There were characters that I both loved and hated at the same time. I wholeheartedly recommend this game.

Having previously played Detroit Become Human and Heavy Rain I had high expectations for this game and they were met. Beautiful narrative with brilliant acting that had me hooked throughout. As the story unfolds you feel and understand Jodie's complex relationship with Aiden, creating a emotional rollercoaster. And I found the change in tone between different times in Jodie's life refreshing for the experience. The controls are unique and a bit clunky and take time to get used to, but you get used to it fast enough.

I was hooked by the format of Detroit: Become Human, so Beyond: Two souls was an obvious next step. The cast and acting are nice, the playtime is long, and the set of episodes is quite diverse - sometimes you participate in drama, sometimes in an action movie. While the story was a bit shallow, and used tried and true cliches to follow the principle of least astonishment, most individual episodes still had something in them, be it dark and quiet corridors of doc's lab, cold winter streets, or literally bottom of the sea. The idea of playing for two entities - one that lives, and the other that follows, and sometimes intervenes - led me to the thought that actually we had another entity that followed and helped the protagonist here, namely the player. Another thought is that sometimes we can have this out-of-body feeling when you look at yourself as at someone else, being mostly a spectator to your life, but still being able to get back at the wheel to help. The most emotionally intense part for me was when the girl went on her date while her supernatural companion had unstoppable urge to spoil it. For some reason it resonated better emotionally than the other parts. I recommend this game to anyone who likes format of Quantic Dream's interactive movies, wants to learn foreign language (as in the case with Detroit: Become Human, there is a good choice of voice dubbing for this game, and the Polish one was excellent), or just loves a cut scenes more than some "gameplay". P.S. Already bought Heavy Rain, and am going to start it soon.

I recommend people give this game a try, because it's a compelling premise and the cost isn't high. But I wasn't able to finish because in some sections there are so many tedious quicktime events it feels like punishment to play ("Welcome to the CIA" can eat a bag of dicks). It's another fascinating story let down by weird gameplay choices.

This is a beautiful game!!! There are so many words to describe the grip and the atmosphere of how the story plays out around Jodie, Aiden, and all of those around them. In my opinion, this is the best game David Cage has ever directed. <3

A simple review from someone that's not very critical I guess.. it was enjoyable. I did find some of the mechanics to be frustrating, especially when trying to view memories it can be a little bit tricky but maybe that's a me thing. Also, some the times where you have to play as Aiden gave me some extreme motion sickness which made it hard to play for long periods of time. Overall though it was an enjoyable story but I'm not sure I'd ever play it again. If you see it on sale you should definitely grab it and give it a try! I played it in the chronological order, not the OG depiction :)

Overall - About a 6.5/10. Enough entertaining stuff to justify a playthrough, but I was disappointed overall. All the ingredients make it feel like it should have amounted to something greater than just a fun madhouse of genre tropes. They could have done a lot more with this story and its characters. I also recommend playing the game in the chronological order of events. Graphics/Voice Acting - 10/10 Framerate/Performance - 9/10 Story - 5.5/10 Writing - 4.5/10 Controls - 10/10 Camera - 3/10

Loved this game. I'd probably give it around a 9.7 Pros - One of the first games I didn't even need to think about using a walkthrough due to getting stuck. This game is probably in my top three story games I've ever played. The game didn't feel buggy or glitchy, and I love the way the characters were animated. I also think the ending is almost perfect, in my opinion. Cons - I did have it switch to it controller because some of the controls I couldn't figure out on keyboard, and the game felt better after that. There are also a few scenes and parts that don't exactly tell you what to do, and at the beginning, the controls should be better explained.

Pros: The story is awesome, very immersive, and made me care about the characters. The choices do matter and require quick thinking. The game is worth replaying to see different endings. The graphics are fine, considering the original release date. Cons: The controls are really frustrating at some points, mainly during combat. However, once you figure it out, it's manageable. If that helps, when attacking or evading, always move your mouse/analog stick in the same way Jodie's body is moving.

Great story cool characters and emotional moments. More like a movie than a game but really fun if you like the style

Funny game, not bad story. Kinda bannal, but still curious to watch. My personal rate 7.5/10. Worth to play, but you will not miss anthing if you'll skip that story.

Great story and graphics surprisingly hold up very well!

"A powerful story with meaningful choices" Beyond: Two Souls offers a captivating narrative with solid gameplay to back it up. I was really impressed by the storytelling — it draws you in and makes you feel deeply connected with the main character. The emotional depth and unique way the story is told help you truly step into her shoes. Towards the end, the game delivers some intense plot twists and difficult choices that really make you think. While the gameplay isn’t groundbreaking, it does a great job supporting the emotional journey. If you're into story-driven games with strong character development and moral decisions, this one's definitely worth your time.

This felt like a never-ending fever dream and honestly I'm only recommending this for the sole reason that this feels like being on drugs without the drugs - It's like a bad movie (if only movies were 12 hours long) that will make you laugh several times and keep you entertained till the end - the amount of typical holywood movie clichés is astounding. (But the ending is obviously hinting at a second game, yet it was confirmed that there won't be any sequels, so that feels a bit pointless)

Great game. I love this story. The control was kinda awkward sometimes but it didn't affect the gameplay too much. Anyway if you are into sci-fi interactive story-telling type of games, I definitely recommend this.

Игра воняет говном и мочой. Сюжет: да бля я хз че там блять на английском они пиздят не понятно нихуя, а где субтитры врубить чет не вдуплил. Друг со своими познаниями английского смог мне перевести slut, shit and bitch. (и все) Графика 13 года для игры 13 года это позор, нужно найти разработчиков и наказать их по вонючим грязным жопам, ну вот настолько полениться нужно, такая халтура, просто фууууууууу. Еще касательно моей диареи: не ешьте пельмени с майонезом заедая дошираком, и самое главное на ночь не пейте чифир (фирменный рецепт: 2 ложки(столовые) кофя, 8 чайных пакетиков, а также сыпаните сахера на глазок примерно пол кружки и нормалды будет. Далее залейте горячей водой из под крана и напиток можно употребить) В игре есть КООП режим, для которого нужно либо сидеть за одним компом как в 2010, или цепануть кабель с инетом из средиземного моря, притаранить его себе домой и МОЖЕТ БЫТЬ у вас обоих будет хорошая трансляция через стим. (Лично я слушал вопли: "У меня 2 фпс/У меня зависло/Я твою маму на хую вертел собачий ты подшерсток блять, купи себе ебучий интернет овца ебаная, драный пидорас объебаный во все щели, ишак бля") Очень понравилось получать пизды, поэтому игра стоит свои бесплатно/бесценно/0 узбекских сум, но не более (а если серьезно, стоит)

loved this game. i rarely got bored which is rare, every chapter is fun and exciting, i loved the mechanics of this game and the idea of aiden it's all so new and overall fun. buy this game don't think twice.

yaşam ve ölümün ötesinde. detroit: become human dan sonra gelmiş geçmiş dünya çapındaki en iyi interaktif sinematik oyun. ölmeden önce oynanması gereken yapımlardan. theseusun minötör ile olan çatışmasını kapalı bir şekilde bize sunuyor. aynı zamanda yalnızlık, özgür irade ve kader, benlik ve kimlik arayışı gibi önemli felsefi temalar oldukça iyi yerleştirilmiş. ne diyebilirim ki, absolute masterpiece by quantic dream.

Awesome game! Great story with many choices and endings so you always find new things!

10/10 not what i expected i thought id have one choice to make but the choices you make as a player impact the story and shows you how many players picked or did what you did

Fiquei PISTOLA com os comandos do jogo, ficar mexendo o mouse para todo canto não é nada bacana, diga-se de passagem. Nunca me senti tão traído e manipulado como nesse jogo, em certos momentos eu nem sabia mais no que acreditar ou em quem confiar porque tudo parecia uma mentira... Fora que eu nunca vi alguém tomar tanta coronhada na cabeça como o Jodie nesse jogo. Fora isso, é um jogo bom demais, me surpreendeu e conseguiu me deixar curioso e emotivo.

A great game with an original story, keeps you interested.

I really wanted to like this game, but it's really bad game play - at least on PC with mouse and keyboard. Sometimes the things the game tells you to do (i.e. press this button or that button) don't work at all (I'm used to games with QTEs, so I know how these work). At some stages, I just had to let time pass for the game to progress because it didn't accept the buttons I pressed. It was incredibly frustrating to progress. After some time, maybe halfway through the game, I just lost interest in even continuing as the story wasn't interesting to enough to keep dealing with the crappy controls.

It's interesting, but I am not a fan on the controls yet. Maybe after I make some adjustments to them I can get better results, but so afar I had to stop because I started feeling nauseous.

No jokes, best storyline along with best graphics! PS: If i was Aiden i would bang her everyminute!

Beyond: Two Souls ist weniger Spiel, mehr interaktiver Film – aber ein sehr guter. Die Story um Jodie und Aiden ist intensiv, emotional und wird durch die großartigen Schauspieler (Elliot Page & Willem Dafoe) stark getragen. Wer storybasierte Spiele mag und sich auf ein ruhigeres, filmisches Erlebnis einlassen kann, wird hier voll auf seine Kosten kommen. Keine Action-Orgie, sondern eine berührende Reise mit starken Momenten.

One of the biggest issues is the controls or rather the lack of them in this port. 1. the only way to exit the game is to CTL+ALT+DEL and end task the process. Neither keyboard/mouse nor xbox nor PS4 controller let you access any sort of menu once the game was launched. 2. fighting/running/dodging controls were near unusable. extremely vague hints about which way to move, in fact it seemed like nearly every "hint" was pointing in the exact opposite direct of the "correct" choice. The game gives you the illusion of choice but in reality the game is pretty much on rails and might as well have been a movie rather than a game.

First things first. This game is a masterpiece that you are along for the ride for. But my god what a story. That being said, a few things on my mind: 1) Jodie's foster dad - total d*i*c*k*h*e*a*d 2) Jodie why you no run 3) Ryan can go to hell 4) What a twist in the end Great game, definitely worth the time and money.

<3 Controls can be frustrating at times, but I guess they're supposed to be

7.5/10 The controls are kinda clunky. It’s hard to tell where Jodie’s going, and there are no directional arrows like in Detroit: Become Human or Heavy Rain. The vibe is very Stranger Things meets The Umbrella Academy, and the performances by Elliot Page and Willem Dafoe are great. The story? All over the place. I played the original version with the mixed-up timeline, and honestly, I wish I’d gone with the chronological option—it probably would’ve made more sense. There are way too many cutscenes, and the mouse controls are super awkward, so you’re always fumbling around trying to click in the right spot. That said, the ending is actually pretty cool, and I might do another playthrough at some point for the achievements. Could see it being fun for co-op. It’s definitely the weakest of the three (Heavy Rain and Detroit: Become Human being the others), but overall, I still had a good time with it.

Very good story, the PS3 had the best games, what a master peace

so cool, lush acting. recognise fucking everyone.

better than life is strange same gameplay but i think its better

bro just play it 4 hours into it and its a damn masterpiece
