About Six hours Into my first play through and I am blown away. The choices. Relationships. Cinematics. It all blends in so wonderfully. While i am away at work, the choices I've made are constantly in my thoughts. It's one hell of a game. Highly recommended this one.
my issue for it, it doesn't look like a game at all its just interactive movie, game looks boring its just you going to this point and this point just press and interact with buttons, its like point and click game, but far slower and a lot more boring, who cares about graphics if game play is almost none existent
kyotheman69 it's a style of game and has existed forever, for example monkey island. if you don't like a style of game then dont play but dont bash something for fitting into it's genre
A fantastic example of the genre. Hope you guys enjoy. Share, like, tweet, or don't do any of that. Will be interesting to see how many folks pretend to have played it through and then do a review and don't know about a couple of the mechanics though ;) Stop on by the patron if you get a chance www.patreon.com/AngryCentaurGaming
As always thanks for the transparency and honest to gd level of attention reviewing this game. I love quantic dream since Fahrenheit or indigo prophecy so im hopefully they will rise to the occasion as David cage geta alot of slack in this industry. I wasnt a fan of beyond two souls as much but indigo was his beat work to me with heavy rain being 2nd. Omikron i havent tried yet but seen bits of it . anyway thank for this and enjoy your week man
Yeah i love the guy, because he doesn't give the games a stupid rating of 1-10, just if you should buy it, rent it, go on sale, or never touch. I loved the game Jurrassic Park Operation Genesis back on PS2, but it got terrible reviews.
As long as I get to Jason again. Jason, Jason, Jason, wait for me Jason, wait for your father, Jason, Jason, Jason, Jason, Jason, JASON, JASON, JASOOOOOOOON
As a person who lives in detroit, I admire how accurate the buildings and landmarks are. They even show the Gordy Howe bridge when its finished. They even show how cork town still needs to be developed. I cant wait to get this game
Why pause VLC should be set to always on top so you can watch porn while a) computer is on and b) you're alive.. Just turn down the volume so you can hear the other video. When I do dungeons in wow I just resize the porn window over the mini map. 2017 and 2018 have been outstanding with 4k and 60 fps pork.
Man no one does game reviews like you, really appreciate how you take the time to delve into every aspect of the game. I feel a lot of other reviews skimmed over just how well produced this game is and how polished it is.
My thanks man. Spread the word, stop by patron, or maybe follow. That stuff really helps these days when everything is getting demonotized and destroyed by youtube
Played it as soon as it downloaded and I've finished my first playthrough. The game is spectacular and am really curious to go back and see what other choices I could make. Also, the scene where one of the characters can paint and play the piano is one of the most heart warming scenes in the game and fabulously done.
As someone who was beyond disappointed with Beyond: Two Souls, and was a bit skeptical about this one, it's really nice to hear that it's actually worth checking out!
Thank you for sticking to what you advertise. No sponsored bull crap and not begging for subscribers. One of the true hero’s among UA-cam. I appreciate not plastering your videos with click here to subscribe and click this to like. Well done and keep em comin.
For David Cage games, I'd rank it with the following; 1) Detroit Become Human 2) Farenheit: Indigo Prophecy 3) Beyond: Two Souls 4) Heavy Rain DBH is easily his best game. I don't understand the hate David Cage gets. His games aren't perfect, and that's okay. Always a unique experience.
kyotheman69 oh man I loved heavy Rain and with the exclusive version of DBH they also give you heavy rain. Just played through heavy rain again after DBH and it kind of makes heavy rain look, feel, sound, and play like shit. Which is saddening because I loved heavy rain when it first released.
Thank you for this I was iffy yet on buying for full price seriously you're one of my favorite reviewers haven't been disappointed yet by a game you've said was worth a buy
i cannot wait to play Kara in this game. I have been waiting ever since "Kara" the tech demo was made. It looked so good, and I was hoping they would turn it into a game... and they did!
Even the games I don't care about, I love watching all of your videos. It helps me to stay up to date with gaming even though I don't have as much time to play as I use to.
I did this game in one sitting. I was tempted straight after to play again but change my choices to see what happens. To me. This is a master piece of game design. You actually get into the characters. You start to feel like them. Its was mind blowing. Each of the characters have a unique personality and story that brings the world together from different perspectives. The quick time events made me feel really tense. I just had to get it right. At the beginning it does feel quite weak. But after awhile you realise why it has been done that way. I would recommend whole heartily.
There is no way I would play a game in one sitting. Any memory I would have of the game would be gone within days. I usually play them segmented that way I can take my time and enjoy them and have a better memory of them later on.
So another ps4 exclusive that hits it out of the park? Why am I not surprised... The ps4 has exclusives for every single genre... Come on Xbox... Step up your game... Bring back Scalebound .. Do something XD
Just finished my first playthrew and i give it a 10 out of 10 amazing game i couldn't put my controller down gonna jump back in to see where else the game takes me!!!!!!!!just blew me away
Quantic Dream games are worth buying every time. I bought a PS4 just to buy Detroit: Become Human. Seeing the Kara prototype in 2012, I fell in love with the game company. Heavy Rain, Beyond:Two Souls sold me. I can't even explain how much I loved those games...Support good games. Buy this game.
So I ALWAYS watch your reviews on games before I buy them (council predominantly) and as you guys don’t know yet...I rate reviews on a 1) spoiler free 2) bs factor 3) history of shared opinion/values 4) and Sound and voice and due to the amount of games I actually buy these days (or lack of) I would just check in on your reviews when I needed too like the worlds worst parent visiting her child on mother’s day once a year just to get that free box of chocolate...but today I decided due to how important your services are in this day an age...I am subscribing. Great writing and great work. Karak and ACG is ABSOLUTELY a must SUB. Cheers.
As usual a great, fair and balanced review. I was skeptical because Beyond Two Souls wasn't very good and I was glad it was free on PS Plus rather than me paying for it. I finished it but don't really want to go back and play it. Heavy Rain was the opposite for me, I actually got the platinum because I wanted to see and do everything it had to offer. Seems like there's a reason to play it again after your first time through which I like.
You’re always impartial *and* thorough, that’s why I check your reviews first. Your review format is also excellent, proving you don’t need a 30-45 minute mess of a video going through every nook and cranny to tell the potential buyer everything they need to know. I’ve been subscribed to you for a couple years now I think, but I wanted to say you’re still doing a great job and providing a great service for those who can’t buy every game that comes out.
The only problem I had with it was the camera at times. I'm not sure why the bottom isn't always focused towards the knees instead of the top thigh. Overall though a MUST buy.
ACG Sure, it’s cool to see what you’re doing. It’s not that i always agree with your final assessment of a game , but somehow your format of reviewing allows for different types of gamers, who appreciate different things in games, to really see wether or not a game is for them.
14:18 That almost made me spill my food hahaha! Detroit Become Humans is one of the few games I've preordered in a long time and definitely finishing it this weekend.
Hey ACG, in terms of narrative detail, number of choices, and the severity of consequences each choice is "Detroit" a better or more sophisticated game than "the council"? Thanks
Wonderful review sir! I’ve been holding off reading any reviews until after I purchased the game and started it for myself. I picked up my copy earlier today and couldn’t agree with you more. The game definitely feels more polished than the previous and has been a blast thus far! Thanks for the additional context as I’m looking forward to working my way thru this one for a few playthroughs!
The game is amazing. I loved Heavy Rain and this is better times 100. You just have to know what you're getting in to. I've seen many reviews that scored this poorly and I feel that those reviews missed the premise of this game (and games like this, which are very few). This is strictly a story based game. I love it but I can see why others wouldn't. Overall, definitely play it at least once if you can.
Hmmm. A 2018 version of dragon's lair. Anyone remember that from the old arcades? Where you were basically in a digital movie but had to press buttons at verious times to decide where the movie would take you? Every clip I've seen from this 'game' was a cut scene paused so you could press a button to move it to the next frame. I admire what they're doing here and it's certainly cutting edge (and I may even buy it), but I wouldn't call it a game.
I’ve really enjoyed the review of the game and I’ll certainly be back for more content. Thumbs Up! I started this game yesterday and I’m having a lot of fun with it. I enjoy the little choices and activities you can take part in if you’d like to explore the areas available. Thanks ACG!
If it is anything like the demo, I'm 50/50 on this. I wanna play it to have the experience and it could be interesting, but I feel like if you wanna see everything, you'd be playing the same portions of the game over and over and over for each variation and that would drive me insane. It started to when I played the demo :/
Karak, Your reviews are the best in the industry, full stop. The way you integrate the detail and nuance with hysterical comedy bits and puns is second to none, for me. Cheers.
Quantic Dreams are among the best game creators for me. I love deep story telling, society questions, character development and everything that makes your brain spin and think about the world and critically question things, where choices matter. Got hooked right up with Fahrenheit and played everything else to my enjoyment. Of course if you are a small minded individual who likes to just shoot zombies and call momma insults to your opponent via the voice chat, this game is not for you.
dante`afk Dang man, why do you have to hate. Some people just like to have mindless fun with other people for a few hours. This game looks interesting and possibly rewarding at the end, but personally I'd rather have a deep story telling experience with a book or a movie.
please dont generalise that most gamers only play mindless shooting shit like cod. i play a wide variety of games genres like turn based rpgs,action rpgs,open world third person adventure,first person shooters,platformers,hack and slash and more which covers games like uncharted 4,bloodborne,dark souls,mario,persona 5,nier automata,assassins creed origins and more but i still hate point and click games. they offer nothing in gameplay besides the interactive movie imo
You don't know good writing if you actually think Quantic Dream games are well written. Also, it seems like you believe that all games are either like this or CoD and there's no in-between. I saw the same thing happen with Dear Esther.
Great in depth review as always. Heavy Rain got me into these types of games and I enjoyed it quite a bit, it was one of those rare instances now where friends would come over to watch me play it and see what happens. Look forward to playing this and glad to hear it isn't a mess like Beyond: Two Souls was, which I still enjoyed aspects of.
Lonely Heart Productions It aged very badly, though it was new for its time. I think people hyperfocused on the "20 different endings!" thing without mentioning that 90% of the game play out nearly identical each playthrough. People now are more critical of choise-driven games because we've simply gotten better ones over the years. Beyond and Heavy Rain are both fine games, but nothing more. Another problem was definitely the overhype David Cage likes to generate for his games, only to rarely deliver as much as he made them out to be.
Heavy Rain had 20 different endings but there were really only 3 with slight variations. Not to mention the story and writing was absolutely unbearable at certain points.
Because it lies to you. It shows you the thoughts of the PD and he is actually searching for the criminal. It really feels like they chose who it was later on. Also, what about the blackouts? The fucking reason the plot is set in motion
I was really impressed with the demo. The decision tree in the menu is brilliant in my opinion. It made me want to replay the level to get the other endings, knowing where the branching points were. The walking dead doesn’t tell you in game where things could have gone differently so you end up looking on UA-cam and watching the cut scenes there rather than actually playing it yourself.
Nice was hoping you'd have reviewed this by the time I got off work. Was planning on getting it but was holding out to hear your thougths. Great reveiw as always!
Great review, Karak! I took a chance and pre-ordered this based on my previous experience with Heavy Rain on the PS3. I loved that story and the character development. You are doing a great service to the gaming community by giving your honest thoughts and myself, as well as my wallet, thanks your wholeheartedly.
If you do get a PS4 I will tell you all the exclusives I recommend Horizon zero dawn Uncharted the Nathan drake collection Uncharted 4 God of War The Last Of Us remastered Ratchet and Clank the 2016 remake Blood Bourne And a shit ton more and even more on the way
Thank you for this review. After last year, and most recently with what Destiny did in its new DLC I don’t really trust games that comes out. This review has helped me decide if I want to buy it or not, without wasting my money first.
Thanks so much for the review. I really trust your views and you’ve helped me to make so many great game purchases. It’s refreshing to consistently listen to someone who knows what they’re talking about! Thank you.
This game is worth your money GOTY contender easily. I beat it twice in two nights. This is the first game I did this with. Once I finished I felt compelled to hop right back to see how the game could turn out differently. Fucking amazing!
Is there an uneven distribution of playtime with these characters? I like to play these kind of games with friends, as in we each pick a character and play as them when the game calls for it, but sometimes someone ends up not getting to do as much
You could die with a character and then you will lose the rest of their story. But if you don't fuck up then they give you about the same amount of scenes between all characters.
Love you reviews man, your indept but not boring, funny but not so much so you pull away from the review. Just so great I will be checking this game out for sure!!
I’ve seen quite a few drastically different opinions on this game. Kotaku’s seemed like it had an agenda but as usual another great review, loved heavy rain so think I’ll pick this one up
Good morning Karak ive been watching your reviews for a few years now and I finaly can post =) so I have to say your the best . I know I can trust your judgment (and that's getting hard these days) I just love your enthusiasm and wit . hope I can chime in future reviews and add my two cents . thank you and fight the good fight my fury brother ;-)
As a huge fan of Quantic Dream and their games such as, Beyond Two Souls and Heavy Rain, Detroit Become Human is right up my alley. Thanks once again for another honest and detailed review. I really appreciate it!
I didnt understand when you first said it but Kristi is much more graceful than what any character failing to properly interact with their environment can do.
Just want to say that I laughed when you said if people didn't like the video, they should give it a thumbs down. That's either a lot of confidence in your content, an interest in honest feedback or both. I can't remember a UA-camr saying that before, and I appreciated it. Great video, by the way (though I did enjoy Heavy Rain). I've been looking forward to this game.
As an enthusiast of film music and sound design I very much appreciate that you take the time to thoroughly comment on the audio of your game reviews, and even play back some in-game sound examples without speaker voice. Excellent work!
You say how great this game looks I noticed during the video the detectives hair looks like it's glued on when he leans his head down the hair wouldn't hang down.
That moment when ACG has more views on his review than IGN's...
#justice
Screw ign
This makes me happy. A small victory for the forces of good :)
Not anymore man....
Ign have 300k more views so unlucky pal
IGN’s quality had gone down so much in the last 10 years, I can’t believe their reviews are legitimate.
Who’s here after downloading the game for free thanks to PS+?
Yup lol
I actually watch a lot of ACGs reviews even after I've bought a game. I really don't know why except I just enjoy hearing his opinion on em
So glad they replaced that soccer game with this last minute 😃
Played for about 2 - 3 hours. Nearly made me fall asleep. Glad it was free 😂😂
yuh boi
About Six hours Into my first play through and I am blown away. The choices. Relationships. Cinematics. It all blends in so wonderfully. While i am away at work, the choices I've made are constantly in my thoughts. It's one hell of a game. Highly recommended this one.
God damnit Sony. I just beat GOW a few weeks ago. Leave my wallet alone.
my issue for it, it doesn't look like a game at all its just interactive movie, game looks boring its just you going to this point and this point just press and interact with buttons, its like point and click game, but far slower and a lot more boring, who cares about graphics if game play is almost none existent
Redbox can be your best friend.
kyotheman69 it's a style of game and has existed forever, for example monkey island. if you don't like a style of game then dont play but dont bash something for fitting into it's genre
pretty sure Saudi Arabia granted a robot human rights. The world is fckd
Lol I know
A fantastic example of the genre. Hope you guys enjoy. Share, like, tweet, or don't do any of that.
Will be interesting to see how many folks pretend to have played it through and then do a review and don't know about a couple of the mechanics though ;)
Stop on by the patron if you get a chance www.patreon.com/AngryCentaurGaming
whish this game had pc version
Wait, it was actually decent?! Did they fire David Cage mid-development?
dark souls remastered review cause why not
As always thanks for the transparency and honest to gd level of attention reviewing this game. I love quantic dream since Fahrenheit or indigo prophecy so im hopefully they will rise to the occasion as David cage geta alot of slack in this industry. I wasnt a fan of beyond two souls as much but indigo was his beat work to me with heavy rain being 2nd. Omikron i havent tried yet but seen bits of it . anyway thank for this and enjoy your week man
ACG are you ever going to review the rest of batman the enemy within episodes and the whole season?
Really looking forward to this. The demo was awesome.
Is that demo still available
Demetrius Ervin I think it is
Captain Eggcellent oh cool,you're here
Its a cage game. That tells enough
First demo in a long time I wanted to replay straightaway to experience more rather than delete and wait for/skip the full game.
Man your reviews always makes the day better 😂
appreciate that Faith
#facts
Yeah i love the guy, because he doesn't give the games a stupid rating of 1-10, just if you should buy it, rent it, go on sale, or never touch. I loved the game Jurrassic Park Operation Genesis back on PS2, but it got terrible reviews.
As long as I get to Jason again. Jason, Jason, Jason, wait for me Jason, wait for your father, Jason, Jason, Jason, Jason, Jason, JASON, JASON, JASOOOOOOOON
ITwas I really like the game but that part had horrible voice acting. I never noticed until I replayed it recently
You're forgetting all about....SHAWN! SHAAWNNN!! SHAWN! SHAWN! and SHAAAAWWNN!
Excited to see you give this a buy, might actually get it now. Looks amazing.
bakerXderek cheeeaah
Cheeuuuuhhh
bakerXderek I hear that, Kotaku shit all over it but Kotaku staff doesn't like anything good so I figured it was probably a buy
I’m about 3 hours in and really digging it 🙌
bakerXderek baker ive been subbedforsome months n maybe a year i knew i recognized your name love bikes hope your channel grows
As a person who lives in detroit, I admire how accurate the buildings and landmarks are. They even show the Gordy Howe bridge when its finished. They even show how cork town still needs to be developed. I cant wait to get this game
I'm a simple man, I see a notification from ACG and I pause my porn.
This porn is much better
thegremlinsmurf can we get a interactive pron like this?
thegremlinsmurf 🤦🏽♂️😂😂😆😆
thegremlinsmurf hahahahaha pure humor. Love it
Why pause VLC should be set to always on top so you can watch porn while a) computer is on and b) you're alive.. Just turn down the volume so you can hear the other video. When I do dungeons in wow I just resize the porn window over the mini map. 2017 and 2018 have been outstanding with 4k and 60 fps pork.

Currently free with PS+! Comes with Heavy Rain as well.
Played it as soon as it downloaded and I've finished my first playthrough. The game is spectacular and am really curious to go back and see what other choices I could make. Also, the scene where one of the characters can paint and play the piano is one of the most heart warming scenes in the game and fabulously done.
As someone who was beyond disappointed with Beyond: Two Souls, and was a bit skeptical about this one, it's really nice to hear that it's actually worth checking out!
Mr. Boppin beyond two soul is the worst of this interactive games. I prefer heavy rain. But I’ll love to play this new one.
Am I the only one who actually liked Beyond: two souls?
no i liked beyond two souls i liked controlling aiden and i thought ellen page did a amazing in it
Ali Mohamed for a free game it was decent.
I adored Beyond: Two Souls
ACG is a workhorse when it comes to reviews. You definitely deserve more subscribers.
Thank you for sticking to what you advertise. No sponsored bull crap and not begging for subscribers. One of the true hero’s among UA-cam. I appreciate not plastering your videos with click here to subscribe and click this to like. Well done and keep em comin.
For David Cage games, I'd rank it with the following; 1) Detroit Become Human
2) Farenheit: Indigo Prophecy
3) Beyond: Two Souls
4) Heavy Rain
DBH is easily his best game. I don't understand the hate David Cage gets. His games aren't perfect, and that's okay. Always a unique experience.
I looved Heavy Rain and this looks so good definitely on my buy list
i did to, but this looks far more boring
kyotheman69 oh man I loved heavy Rain and with the exclusive version of DBH they also give you heavy rain. Just played through heavy rain again after DBH and it kind of makes heavy rain look, feel, sound, and play like shit. Which is saddening because I loved heavy rain when it first released.
That's it! After God of War now THIS? I'm buying a PS4!
Thank you for this I was iffy yet on buying for full price seriously you're one of my favorite reviewers haven't been disappointed yet by a game you've said was worth a buy
i cannot wait to play Kara in this game. I have been waiting ever since "Kara" the tech demo was made. It looked so good, and I was hoping they would turn it into a game... and they did!

Even the games I don't care about, I love watching all of your videos. It helps me to stay up to date with gaming even though I don't have as much time to play as I use to.

Unpopular opinion but I love DBH more than Heavy Rain.
Great video once again. I was going to wait till a sale came for this; however, you review prove to buy this Day 1. Thanks again
I've been waiting SO LONG! Thank you for an excellent review as always. You are just the go to guy. :) I'm going to LOVE this too much!
thanks!
I must say, you are the only reviewer I both learn from and jolly well enjoy! So thanks to YOU good Sir. :)
So another ps4 exclusive that hits it out of the park? Why am I not surprised...
The ps4 has exclusives for every single genre...
Come on Xbox... Step up your game... Bring back Scalebound
.. Do something XD
DBZPokefreak they did a complete 180 from the 360 days 🤣
Bars
despite what reviewers are saying state of decay 2 is actually a really good game. its only $30 and they were treating it like its a $60 triple a game
Rubbing the salt in the wound 😂
I agree it's a good game. The cost is irrelevant though. DOesn't matter if a game is $10 or $60.Good is good and bad is bad.
Just finished my first playthrew and i give it a 10 out of 10 amazing game i couldn't put my controller down gonna jump back in to see where else the game takes me!!!!!!!!just blew me away
Love the video, the number one source i come to for video game reviews.
thanks
No problem, You have awesome reviews, every time i go to purchase a game I got to check out your no matter if its old or not, so thank you
I guess if I was going to make a movie into a game that's more like a movie, I'd probably make Blade Runner too.
Abbreviated Reviews more human than human
Abbreviated Reviews it's more like the almost human television show then blade runner.
You really have a bone to pick with this game huh?
Hes just pissed cause he bought an xbox one 😂😂
@@TheKillaShow I mean, theres no fuckin gameplay lol. Its just bullshit cutscenes like a telltale game
I don’t even play half the games you review, I just enjoy the ways you compare them to other things. 😂
this game is definitely worth every pennies...
Gianpaolo Pazzini all of the pennies 🤓
How many pennies?
Mrs Chic Every pennies
Every single got damn pennies
Thanks for your 2 cents.
First ten minutes of this game blew my mind, first hour and I was in love...
Quantic Dream games are worth buying every time. I bought a PS4 just to buy Detroit: Become Human. Seeing the Kara prototype in 2012, I fell in love with the game company. Heavy Rain, Beyond:Two Souls sold me. I can't even explain how much I loved those games...Support good games. Buy this game.
I only watch your reviews. always do your homework and cover all the things that are necessary to give a realistic and honest review

So, Connor is essentially K from Blade Runner 2049?
6:28 That's crazy timing lol. I was just looking to see if there was a soundtrack because the music in this game is awesome
I met Clancy Brown at the bar I worked yrs ago, he was really cool. This game does look beautiful.
The only problem I had with it was the camera at times. I'm not sure why the bottom isn't always focused towards the knees instead of the top thigh. Overall though a MUST buy.
You’ve become my go to for game reviews! AMAZING REVIEWS
appreciate it
ACG Sure, it’s cool to see what you’re doing. It’s not that i always agree with your final assessment of a game , but somehow your format of reviewing allows for different types of gamers, who appreciate different things in games, to really see wether or not a game is for them.
12:17 Agree completely with you. It ruined the rest of the SW franchise for me. I grew up loving the first trilogy exactly because of what you say
I was waiting for this review! Thanks bruv! Also, that "Union required break line" was hysterical 😂😂😂
14:18 That almost made me spill my food hahaha! Detroit Become Humans is one of the few games I've preordered in a long time and definitely finishing it this weekend.
Hey ACG, in terms of narrative detail, number of choices, and the severity of consequences each choice is "Detroit" a better or more sophisticated game than "the council"? Thanks

You're the only reviewer I fully trust. Looks like I'll be getting this game after all. Keep up the good work.
Hmmm. A 2018 version of dragon's lair. Anyone remember that from the old arcades? Where you were basically in a digital movie but had to press buttons at verious times to decide where the movie would take you? Every clip I've seen from this 'game' was a cut scene paused so you could press a button to move it to the next frame.
I admire what they're doing here and it's certainly cutting edge (and I may even buy it), but I wouldn't call it a game.
I didn't know that about dragons lair. I only know of that game from stranger things. Good to know!
I’ve really enjoyed the review of the game and I’ll certainly be back for more content. Thumbs Up! I started this game yesterday and I’m having a lot of fun with it. I enjoy the little choices and activities you can take part in if you’d like to explore the areas available. Thanks ACG!
funnily enough I just played through Omikron again and yeah it hasn't aged very well but the beginning is still amazing.
Now Omikron :a Nomad's Soul, really brings back the memories!A really underrated game back in the day :)
Almost Human was a great sci-fi show, shame it only lasted 1 season.
Your writing is really amazing and no one talks about that but I really just get amazed at your writing chops every time I watch your reviews.
If it is anything like the demo, I'm 50/50 on this. I wanna play it to have the experience and it could be interesting, but I feel like if you wanna see everything, you'd be playing the same portions of the game over and over and over for each variation and that would drive me insane. It started to when I played the demo :/
Karak, Your reviews are the best in the industry, full stop. The way you integrate the detail and nuance with hysterical comedy bits and puns is second to none, for me. Cheers.
Quantic Dreams are among the best game creators for me. I love deep story telling, society questions, character development and everything that makes your brain spin and think about the world and critically question things, where choices matter.
Got hooked right up with Fahrenheit and played everything else to my enjoyment.
Of course if you are a small minded individual who likes to just shoot zombies and call momma insults to your opponent via the voice chat, this game is not for you.
dante`afk Dang man, why do you have to hate. Some people just like to have mindless fun with other people for a few hours. This game looks interesting and possibly rewarding at the end, but personally I'd rather have a deep story telling experience with a book or a movie.
please dont generalise that most gamers only play mindless shooting shit like cod. i play a wide variety of games genres like turn based rpgs,action rpgs,open world third person adventure,first person shooters,platformers,hack and slash and more which covers games like uncharted 4,bloodborne,dark souls,mario,persona 5,nier automata,assassins creed origins and more but i still hate point and click games. they offer nothing in gameplay besides the interactive movie imo
You don't know good writing if you actually think Quantic Dream games are well written. Also, it seems like you believe that all games are either like this or CoD and there's no in-between. I saw the same thing happen with Dear Esther.
Great in depth review as always. Heavy Rain got me into these types of games and I enjoyed it quite a bit, it was one of those rare instances now where friends would come over to watch me play it and see what happens. Look forward to playing this and glad to hear it isn't a mess like Beyond: Two Souls was, which I still enjoyed aspects of.
... I adored Heavy Rain ;_;
What's wrong with it? The more we talked about it, the better.
Lonely Heart Productions it's cringey. To each their own.
Because it got worse over time? Yea
Lonely Heart Productions It aged very badly, though it was new for its time. I think people hyperfocused on the "20 different endings!" thing without mentioning that 90% of the game play out nearly identical each playthrough.
People now are more critical of choise-driven games because we've simply gotten better ones over the years. Beyond and Heavy Rain are both fine games, but nothing more. Another problem was definitely the overhype David Cage likes to generate for his games, only to rarely deliver as much as he made them out to be.
Heavy Rain had 20 different endings but there were really only 3 with slight variations. Not to mention the story and writing was absolutely unbearable at certain points.
Because it lies to you. It shows you the thoughts of the PD and he is actually searching for the criminal. It really feels like they chose who it was later on. Also, what about the blackouts? The fucking reason the plot is set in motion
I was really impressed with the demo. The decision tree in the menu is brilliant in my opinion. It made me want to replay the level to get the other endings, knowing where the branching points were. The walking dead doesn’t tell you in game where things could have gone differently so you end up looking on UA-cam and watching the cut scenes there rather than actually playing it yourself.
Sounds like you didn't like Heavy Rain at all, interesting. I thought it was Beyond: Two Souls that people didn't care for...
Nice was hoping you'd have reviewed this by the time I got off work. Was planning on getting it but was holding out to hear your thougths. Great reveiw as always!
Thanks ACG. I appreciate where you say if you like this type of game it's absolutely a... You are the best reviewer on UA-cam.
appreciate it
Great review, Karak! I took a chance and pre-ordered this based on my previous experience with Heavy Rain on the PS3. I loved that story and the character development. You are doing a great service to the gaming community by giving your honest thoughts and myself, as well as my wallet, thanks your wholeheartedly.
thanks sean
Just an awesome game, so unique 9/10! Nice review!
I love Karak's reviews, he wont piss on your back and tell you its raining
Holy shit, +1 for the mention of Omikron! That book of disc's for the install still gives me nightmares. Thanks for the great content as always, dude.
great game
PS4 Pro on a 4K UHD TV....looks absolutely amazing. Add a THX surround sound system to that...pure bliss.
Guess I’m gonna buy a ps4 for this and God of war
Blayton Jones and horizon zero dawn. May as well grab last of us and uncharted and blood Bourne and etc etc
Me too but I'm going to wait until Spiderman is released and on sale.
Spider-Man?
If you do get a PS4 I will tell you all the exclusives I recommend
Horizon zero dawn
Uncharted the Nathan drake collection
Uncharted 4
God of War
The Last Of Us remastered
Ratchet and Clank the 2016 remake
Blood Bourne
And a shit ton more and even more on the way
Don't forget Gravity Rush 2, The Last Guardian, and Yakuza 0.
Why was I so hesitant to watch this review? As always being a subscriber has added value to my gaming.
Seems like a great game with a great story. But $60 for a game with only 8-9 hours is a bit too much, I will wait till it goes on sale
I did as well but remember the game has about three times the amount of what you said, you just have to play it more than once
Thank you for this review. After last year, and most recently with what Destiny did in its new DLC I don’t really trust games that comes out. This review has helped me decide if I want to buy it or not, without wasting my money first.
sure
Im torturing myself because I don't have a ps4
Stop torturing yourself and go get one. ;)
Kevin Strom The amount they've sold has nothing to do with him not being able to get one or not having one.
I think a ps4 slim is 250, it comes with 1TB I suggest that one if you decide to get one.
And we still have Spiderman coming in September.
who gives a shit about Peter Parker
I started following a few months ago, I can honestly say you guys are fantastic. Honest in depth reviews every time. Keep up the good work
thanks disclaim
People Complain about game price but will pay 30$ just to watch a movie?
Thanks so much for the review. I really trust your views and you’ve helped me to make so many great game purchases. It’s refreshing to consistently listen to someone who knows what they’re talking about! Thank you.
Can we just get a new form/genre of entertainment called interactive movies or something? That's what DBH is.
It existed a long time ago in the form of interactive books. Example: Choose your own adventure.
This game is worth your money GOTY contender easily. I beat it twice in two nights. This is the first game I did this with. Once I finished I felt compelled to hop right back to see how the game could turn out differently. Fucking amazing!
It's really more of an interactive movie than a game. Save your money and just watch it on UA-cam.
You're so close to 500k subs! Very much deserved. Keep up the great work!
thanks
Good review.. But did u really complain about graphics?? Lol
I have never seen anything like it
you bet I did.
Always the #1 source of game reviews. Professional, honest, and full of life, Karak cares for games.
Is there an uneven distribution of playtime with these characters? I like to play these kind of games with friends, as in we each pick a character and play as them when the game calls for it, but sometimes someone ends up not getting to do as much
depends on how you play for sure
You could die with a character and then you will lose the rest of their story. But if you don't fuck up then they give you about the same amount of scenes between all characters.
Keep in mind at some point in the story the characters might meet.
Love you reviews man, your indept but not boring, funny but not so much so you pull away from the review. Just so great I will be checking this game out for sure!!
I’ve seen quite a few drastically different opinions on this game. Kotaku’s seemed like it had an agenda but as usual another great review, loved heavy rain so think I’ll pick this one up
hasn't been a single game ever that I haven't found drastically different opinions on though. 0
ACG that is also very true, again thanks for the review :)
Noticed that too. Polygon and Kotaku have a vendetta against Cage. Personal attacks are normal for those sites.
Good morning Karak ive been watching your reviews for a few years now and I finaly can post =) so I have to say your the best . I know I can trust your judgment (and that's getting hard these days) I just love your enthusiasm and wit . hope I can chime in future reviews and add my two cents . thank you and fight the good fight my fury brother ;-)
HOW DARE YOU I loved heavy rain ;) Great vid as always
lol
Beyond two souls was really aswell
wait, whats so funny? you didn't love heavy rain?
I really liked Heavy Rain and Beyond two Souls as well
As a huge fan of Quantic Dream and their games such as, Beyond Two Souls and Heavy Rain, Detroit Become Human is right up my alley. Thanks once again for another honest and detailed review. I really appreciate it!
Nothing sucks more than seeing a great review for a game, then realizing it's only on PS4... S&%#
I didnt understand when you first said it but Kristi is much more graceful than what any character failing to properly interact with their environment can do.
Meh..at 10 hours long not a day one for full price buy for me
Just want to say that I laughed when you said if people didn't like the video, they should give it a thumbs down. That's either a lot of confidence in your content, an interest in honest feedback or both. I can't remember a UA-camr saying that before, and I appreciated it. Great video, by the way (though I did enjoy Heavy Rain). I've been looking forward to this game.
I loved Heavy Rain until the garbage, incongruent “twist”. Please tell me this avoids that trope!
As an enthusiast of film music and sound design I very much appreciate that you take the time to thoroughly comment on the audio of your game reviews, and even play back some in-game sound examples without speaker voice. Excellent work!
On the ball as always, great review
thanks
No thank you for great detailed reviews, you've helped me and many other decide on buying a game or not.
Thunderbolts1986 preach that shit
You say how great this game looks I noticed during the video the detectives hair looks like it's glued on when he leans his head down the hair wouldn't hang down.
Thanks for mentioning Omikron
Good review
sure
