All Quantic Dream Games, Ranked from Worst to Best

Beyond: Two Souls

Beyond: Two Souls is probably Quantic Dream’s most polarizing release. With it being the follow-up to Heavy Rain, and the fact that Ellen Page and Willem Dafoe were starring in it, a lot of people were excited. However, once it released, it became clear that Beyond suffered from some storytelling issues.

The story follows Jodie, a young girl with a connection to an unseen entity called Aiden, but the way it was told was criticized for being muddled. Many of the plot lines don’t go anywhere, and it’s difficult to understand at many points. The motion-capture work is clearly excellent, and some of the interactive moments are compelling, but it’s difficult to get too invested when the story is poor.
