    It's a good game after all.
    The story it's well written, the characters too, the gameplay is a little bit vintage.

    Es un excelente juego, la historia es muy buena, tomo mi atención desde el comienzo. Los gráficos super bien, la jugabilidad es buena pero no excelente

    A história desse jogo é bem interessante, o fato dela não ser contada na ordem cronológica pode confundir um pouco, ainda assim da pra entendê-la. De resto nada a comentar.

    Жаль, но игра намного хуже Хэви Рейна. Из плюсов выделю актёров и концовку, а так слабый сюжет, слабый геймплей и слабая музыка. Средняя игра.

    Хорошая игра, отличный сюжет, но у меня были завышены ожидания и не понравилась концовка в духе третьего масс эффекта. Я могу рекомендовать игру всем любителям игро-фильмов, так как контент в целом больше чем качественный, почти идеальный, пусть и линейный.Хорошая игра, отличный сюжет, но у меня были завышены ожидания и не понравилась концовка в духе третьего масс эффекта.

    Fun game with good story and good facial motion capture. Enjoyed it in around 12 hours.

Although the actual gameplay can be repetitive with hours of quick time events, the main draw is the story and finding out about Jodie and Aiden not the gameplay. As long as you are aware of the type of game this is it should not be disappointing rather the opposite, it delivers a story that is enticing and keeps the player wanting to find out what happens next. Go into this expecting a playable movie with a plot depending on player choices, not a video game. However there is some cool sequences that include moving the environment (as Aiden). A key part of this game is the dichotomy between Jodie and Aiden, Jodie being the character you control and the rest of the characters see, and Aiden the spirit that Jodie only sees. A fun aspect of this game is the switching between the two and helping Jodie in her problems she faces. All in all this experience is similar to a TellTale game with high quality graphics and more cinematic moments.

    Recommended if you like : TellTale Games “The Walking Dead”, Detroit: Become Human, Heavy Rain, Life is Strange.

    Do not play this for- Fast paced gameplay, challenging gameplay, a quick story for one session.

    Glitch level- pretty high, I experienced some sort of camera or facial animation glitch once every hour playing it, none were game breaking just kind of goofy glitches that can take away from the moment in game.

    This game is like a movie that should tell a good story, the problem is that the story is stupid. Stupid characters with pointless stuff going on and the game tries to distract you from the stupid story by putting stupid QTEs everywhere. Bad game

    Maybe it is one of the best game I ever played! I love it and I will play it again because you can understand more about the story if your choices will be different.

    The production quality (animations, voice acting, etc.) is far better in Beyond than in Heavy Rain which makes for a significant improvement in the playability of this type of game.

Also, although it is somewhat inherent to the gameplay of these 'interactive dramas', the QTE sequences get boring rather quickly. Unfortunately, controlling Jodie is still just as much of a nightmare as was with the characters of Heavy Rain, though the Aiden gameplay was far less burdened. Overall this is a quality game that most who liked Heavy Rain would enjoy.… Expand

    This is an absolutely stunning game visually with fantastic acting and story. Even 8 years later this game looks great. I have played this game multiple times. Would HIGHLY recommend if you’re into heavily story driven games (or works of art in the case of this game). Would recommend playing on PC with controller.

    Интересная и захватывающая игра, с динамично меняющимся сюжетом. Жаль, что игра явно не на двоих, как написано в описании. 2й игрок 90% времени наблюдает за первым игроком.

    protagonista con menos carisma que una lechuga, historia zzzz y personajes zzzz, al ser una pelicula interactiva lo mas importante es la historia y los personajes y el juego falla en eso, los graficos muy lindos eso si

    Mirror's Edge Catalyst is a highly enjoyable action-adventure game featuring fluid parkour mechanics, an engaging story, and stunning visuals. It is a must-play for fans of the genre. but the story wasn't the greatest.

    The game overall isn't bad although I think some of the controls and camera angles were annoying at times. In particular the melee qtes were hard to tell what way to go. Someone would be swinging a weapon and you can tell if you duck or attack. Even know you should be able to do both only 1 works.

You get a "remixed" version which puts it in chronological order but because this wasn't how it was written it doesn't quite portray it right. And the original would have been better if it was told more in the right order with the odd flash back here and there. 1 thing this game does better then Detroit become human is the combat parts are less linear. You actually are able to wander round a bit more and decide your angle more freely rather then 1 way or no way. I know this is a story based game but it's still nice to have a little bit of freedom every now and then which is something they gave the player here. Strange why they drifted away from that in the next title.… Expand

    For me the most important feature of this remaster is the inclusion of the optional chronological mode. It makes the story a bit less flashy but way easier to comprehend. [01/2016, p.65]

    Shaky at second glance, but deserves the PS4 promotion. Remix mode and stats screens provide a fresh way into Jodie's story, should you revisit it. [Jan 2016, p.95]

    Beyond: Two Souls would've fared a lot better if it had even more visual detail, other control options and extra content to make it more like a director's cut. As it stands, though, it's a great conversion of a pretty good Quantic Dream development, mind its storytelling issues and quick-time event gameplay. Plus, it won't kill your wallet being priced for only $30. That's something even invisible deities can appreciate.
