Quantum Break is a bit different from what fans have usually expected from Remedy Entertainment, best known for the games Max Payne and Alan Wake. Instead of just relying on your usual in-game cutscenes, the developers included a full, live-action drama that you could shape with your decisions in game. Each chapter of the game presented options to you that decided the future, and you got to see the effects those decisions had on all of the characters. Watching individuals die based off of a choice you made on a whim, or seeing good win out is a great thing.

The action itself helped to tie it all together. After an accident with a time machine, Jack Joyce gained the power to control time and wield it as a weapon. This made for cover-based gunfights that played out differently depending on how you wanted to punish your adversaries. Locking them in time bubbles, racing through areas, or shielding yourself presented many interesting options that kept the action flowing.
