    Produkcja, która wywołała u mnie smutek i żal. Oczywiście pozytywnie postrzegam tę grę pod kątem historii oraz tego jak bardzo gracz jest w niej interaktywny. Polecam każdemu, kto lubi życiowe gry i jest empatyczną osobą.

    Oynadığım ilk quantic dream oyunu. Gerçi buna oyun diyebilir miyiz bilmiyorum oyundan ziyade bir hikayeyi kararlarımızla yönlendirmek üzerine kurulu. Oynanış anlamında bir çekiciliği olmasa bile verdiğin kararların etkisini görmek güzel.

    great visual novel, although a certain thing in the story tasted bitter to me, it is very good that you can choose possibilities and have consequences

    Jogo incrivel pela historia... um pouco secante no principio... mas depois o vicio pela historia aumenta, so parei no final..

    Giocato e finito nel 2022.
    Bella trama, ottimo colpo di scena finale.
    Sistema di controllo che risulta (ovviamente) datato, e sistema di selezione delle scelte a volte non molto chiara. Doppiaggi a volte così così.
    Premio l'originalità del gioco, e il buon livello di coinvolgimento che garantisce.

    REAL SCORE 8.3. This is a very good game. Is not easy to do this type of games but I think this has achieved the honor to be named one of the best of his own genre.

    Este juego me encantó y a pesar de que hoy en día sus carencias se notan más, no deja de ser un juego con una historia atrapante y buenos personajes en realidad me encantó pero algunos huecos de guión pudieron ser mejorados

    Game was poorly made with those choices and not much replay value. Indigo prophecy was better than this

    História e gráficos incríveis, apenas peca em não possuir dublagem em PT-BR, mas os personagens e acontecimentos valem muito a pena.

    Ambitious but limited game trying to be a movie and ending up as a joke. The cascade of choices is an illusion for most of the game, pushing the protagonists onwards on rails to move the plot forward. It's a rip off of Se7en just with lots of plot holes.

    There's some awkward dialogue here and there. However, the overall experience is fantastic.

    An Quantic Dream Spielen scheiden sich die Geister. Kritisieren manche solcherlei "Drama Adventures" als zu wenig interaktiv, um es wirklich Spiel nennen zu können, rühmen andere wiederum deren erzählerische Qualitäten, die überragende Präsentation und atmosphärische Dichte, die meist das Niveau von Kinoproduktionen erreicht.

    Generell ist es bei solchen Spielen so, dass sich die    An Quantic Dream Spielen scheiden sich die Geister. Kritisieren manche solcherlei "Drama Adventures" als zu wenig interaktiv, um es wirklich Spiel nennen zu können, rühmen andere wiederum deren erzählerische Qualitäten, die überragende Präsentation und atmosphärische Dichte, die meist das Niveau von Kinoproduktionen erreicht.

    Generell ist es bei solchen Spielen so, dass sich die Gameplayelemente auf ein Untersuchen der Umgebung, eine Dialogmechanik und im Falle von Quantic Dream Titeln, das Absolvieren von Quick Time Events beschränken. Das mag auf manche eher wie ein interaktiver Film wirken, der besondere Clou ist jedoch, dass die erzählten Geschichten eben in der Regel nicht linear verlaufen, sondern dass der Spieler Einfluss auf diese nimmt. Das mag sich am Verhalten in Dialogen aufhängen. Das mag daran liegen, wie viele Informationen wir in der Umgebung gesammelt haben. Oder es ist abhängig davon, ob wir Quick Time Events bestehen konnten oder eben auch nicht. Resultat ist, dass wir einen individuellen Weg in der Geschichte gehen werden. Und egal wie wir uns nun verhalten haben, wir werden in einem Durchlauf nie alle Szenen und Möglichkeiten, die das Spiel uns bietet, sehen können. Hierin liegt dann auch der Wiederspielwert solcher Titel verborgen. Vielleicht sehen wir bei einem zweiten Durchlauf völlig andere Szenen, weil wir uns anders entschieden haben, oder eine Information finden konnten, die uns beim ersten Durchlauf noch fehlte.

    Heavy Rain erzählt seine Geschichte aus der Perspektive von vier unterschiedlichen Protagonisten, die wir alle zeitweise steuern können. So ist Heavy Rain eine Detektivgeschichte, ein Kriminalthriller und ein persönliches Psychodrama in einem. Erzählerisch bewegt sich Quantic Dream daher auf einem, nicht nur für Videospiele, extrem hohen Niveau und transportiert eine Atmosphäre, die an manche Hitchcock oder auch David Fincher Filme erinnert. Dass die Steuerung nicht mehr zeitgemäß ist und es vor allem zu Beginn eher langweilige, einführende Passagen gibt, davon sollte man sich nicht abschrecken lassen. Mit Heavy Rain spielt man letztlich eine unglaublich dichte und tief gehende Geschichte, die ihren besonderen Reiz darin findet, dass sie sich letztlich so erzählt, wie wir sie auch spielen. Hinsichtlich Präsentation, grafischer Qualität und Regie setzen Quantic Dream Spiele seit jeher Maßstäbe. Auch das trägt sicherlich dazu bei, dass die Erfahrungen, die wir in Heavy Rain machen, uns tatsächlich auch sehr nahe gehen können. Quantic Dream Spiele sind immer etwas besonderes, etwas, das einen als Spieler wirklich bewegen kann. Statt Netflix anzuwerfen, kann man Netflix auch einfach einmal spielen. Es lohnt sich ungemein.    … Expand

    The story of this game is one of the best in video games. The characters are all great and the scenarios the player is placed in are all superb. The choices you make in this game have very big consequences which adds to the tension of the game. The controls are the main flaw as sometimes they are weirdly angled.

    Game like a movie. I'm playing with pleasure. Every character is special and charism. Quantic dreams is a masters of yourself deal. Will be perfect to see second part...

    This game was a revelation for me at the time.

    I was just starting to play on consoles then, and I could not imagine that such sensations could be from the game.

    I directly felt in the body of the protagonist and experienced all the events with him. Amazing gameplay and amazing story, great cinematography in its time.

    This game is definitely a masterpiece.

    Si juegas este juego sabiendo a lo que vas, es absolutamente disfrutable. Obviamente, la narrativa tiene mucho peso, pero está tan bien desarrollada que hace que el juego sea realmente divertido. No por sus mecánicas de quicktime events, sino por lo entretenida que es su trama y cómo podemos influir en ella con distintas acciones y decisiones. Duración aproximada: 10 horas

    Dark crime driven story with plot twists emotional moments and nice interactive gameplay, it was maybe the first time I see such an interactive game turns to be a triple A especially the graphics was great as a 2010 PS3 game

    A detective with a good start, high-quality QTEs and well-written characters, but closer to the middle it starts to become incredibly stuffy

    After some time, finally a game that thrilled me with its story. The story is completely complex and will make you think about all your decisions. I stopped the game a few times just to think hard about my decision.

    As for the characters, they are also well written, none of the characters was such that it would bother me with the presence alone.

    Gameplay was done in such a way that it more resembled an interactive movie than a game. Although I must say that in Scott's part, opening the fridge was sometimes a daunting task.

    I also appreciate the "Move" version of the game. Unfortunately, I do not have the necessary equipment to try this mode.

    I also like that the game has a very large number of endings to the story.

    I can only recommend this game and I am glad that I found a few hours of free time to humble it. I rate the number 9/10.    … Expand

    Put gaming conventions aside, go in with no expectations other than this is something new and massively good-looking, and you'll be rewarded with a unique experience that lurches between genius and madness, manages to be genuinely emotional, and that you'll be bursting to talk about with your friends.

    For many people Heavy Rain won’t be more than a progression of quick-time-events, but for me this game has everything a great game needs. The thrilling story, the beautiful graphics and the innovative controls will let you play on and on, till you just can’t look any longer into your TV.
