She sees without doing that too, if you destroy the CCTV camera on one chapter, she will comment without having seen you do it.
BEYOND: Two Souls (Ellen Page, Willem Dafoe) |OT| Press Triangle to Aiden
- Thread starter Replicant
- Start date
It's also a distance thing. The farther he gets from her, the more affect it has on her body. For gameplay purposes, they did this so you couldn't scout out a whole area with Aiden but they did a good job of making a big deal of it whenever he had to move fairly far from her to do something.
I just played through a rather lengthily section that included a lot of "action" via QTE sequences. It ended
. Does the game remain at this level of action because it was shitty and boring, I want to talk to people like the hilarious
section.
with me using my ghost buddy to make a helicopter pilot crash his helicopter after a lengthily chase from a train where I am wanted by police
birthday party
Eh, there will be a couple other sections that match up with both of the ones you just talked about. It may feel hammy in both regards but Cage did good mixing up the action and the mundane.

It should be released on iTunes soon.
The Condenser.
The possessed doctor you fight (optional fight) gets impaled in the US version by a metal bar. In the EU version she just stabs him.
I have the EU version and there is no nudity despite getting both shower scenes. Can't notice any difference between the EU and US version either. It's just a side boob at one point. This isn't because of rating boards btw, Ellen Page has a strict no nudity policy and that probably extends to video games.

She must be super pissed with the images of the nude model circulating around the net.

Either she sees it happening in real life or Aiden tells her that he did it. He often talks, but you can't hear it over his ambient sounds very well. But he does. I think The Experiment chapter with the cards is supposed to show that Aiden can lie to her if he wants.
Also in the Korea section for example she asks where he is, because she is too weak to look directly through him.
The "mundane" is what is actually fun though, because at least you get the illusion of direct influence. Being told to just go around finding the right spot to press buttons on isn't fun at all. I don't remember Heavy Rain having this much action, it was all funny stuff like QTEs to turn lights on and shit.
Or that their staff like wanking to CGI.

I'm 2-3 hours into this and absolutely loving it.
The graphics are astonishing. I'm not a graphics whore in the slightest, but the realism and expression in the faces really counts for a lot in a game like this and really captivates me.
Even my mum, who usually actively dislikes videogames, stopped and watched for 15 minutes and very briefly thought I was watching a film.
I'm wondering - not caring about trophies on my first playthrough, but after that, can you just replay chapters to get the missing trophies, or do you have to replay the whole game?

Calling it mundane doesnt imply its not fun, just trying to say separate it from the action. I like both type of sequences but thats just me.

Yeah maybe. I'm not too sure. Maybe they did it just for reference. Or the topic came up only later when the model was already finished. Or she changed her mind. Who knows.
Hope this doesn't upset her lol
Depends on the trophy. Most of them you can get this way, but not all.

I've been thinking and I can't figure out why
Jodie and Aiden were connected after his death in the womb. This presumably happens to thousands of children, what made Jodie so special? Was it the nature of her mother's powers or something else?
That is NOT how you mark a spoiler. GAH!. Thanks.

it will make sense once there are a lot of chapters unlocked, and it's the way it is to break gameplay once in a while. at least that's what EmptySpace thinks.
A common complaint. I can't say I agree with it though. Jodie's life is a lot more action heavy as she gets older. The idea of playing a three hour section as a kid, then balls out action for five is pretty bad.
I wonder how loose the pacing testing was. It would appear the order you play these could have been constantly changed for play testing to tweak pacing.
I would guess the fact that both of her parents were "special" had an influence, especially seeing as how this was pretty much unprecedented based on some of the researchers' words.

Both her mother and father were gifted (psychic powers). That was a first according to the scientists. We know it probably happened before, because of Navajo. I imagine after Aiden died his soul clung to the nearest living being around him, Jodie.
Just completed this, was fun, want to see the other endings though.
True, but I think they could have done it in a far better order which made sense, and split up action. I just felt the order they did put it in, didn't really do the game any favours, (Ending spoilers, don't read unless you've completed)
.
Do you have to play through all the chapters again to make choices stick? In heavy rain you could just play the chapters which had the choice in to change what happened. My problem being, I didn't realise you could save Paul, but I want to go back and remedy that.

even though the game does explain why it is disjointed in the end
THESE ARE ENDING SPOILERS
Anyway.....
They do mention that both parents were heavily gifted in their powers. I assume that this "pure" gifted bloodline is what made aiden special (I think he is the special one staying tethered to the real world, as opposed to Jodie)
It is my understanding that for a decision to stick, you have to play that chapter and then continue the game from that point on until the ending. Correct me if I'm wrong and sucks if true :/
Yeah that's what I read, but I was trying to find out for definite.
Not sure if I want to do that long ass assassination stealth mission again just yet, lol.
You're correct.
Not directed at you, but for other people asking trophy questions: I have no idea why more people here don't use PS3trophies.org. It literally will give you step by step guides for every single game. There's even a 360 sister-site.
Not everyone wants to be sat at a desk reading a guide to play a game to make sure they don't miss anything.
Uh....then why ask how to get a particular trophy/achievement? There is at least one poster here who has asked the same question several times about a trophy.
Some of it is actually very interestingly placed, if it's intentional or not. The first time Jodie meets Ryan chronologically, she hates him, because he's taking her away, but next time we see him, she's attracted to him, but we (or at least I), still disliked him, which put me much more inline with Aiden's character for that chapter.

Sorry, guys. I wasn't thinking and forgot to mark it as an ending spoiler. 
. Won't do it again.
. Won't do it again.I didn't ask about a trophy, I asked about choices for endings on replays. Contrary to popular belief, not everyone plays games for trophy's.
Well I was talking more about at the start really. I mean it's kind of difficult to care at the start of the game when it's constantly swapping between different periods.

I'm convinced that this is absolutely intentional. Otherwise 99% of the players would root for Jodie in that chapter. By doing them in this order it creates a conflict and makes the scene way more interesting. Do you want Jodie to be happy or get rid of that douchebag?
The monsters are handled in a similar intentional way. First Interview teases them, My Imaginary Friend shows them and during Condenser you fight them. Then in Homeless they come back. This was definitely the most effective order to deal with them.
Yeah it is hard to get into it. When you do though it becomes really good. I think many will quit or give up before reaching that point unfortunately.
Just like with Heavy Rain, the trophies are (for the most part) related to the decisions & endings. There is an exact correlation even if you didn't realize it. I was just trying to be helpful towards you and at least one other poster who had questions about the different endings and how to get them and if you needed to replay each chapter individually or start from a particular chapter and finish the game to get something in particular.
Sorry if my post came across as aggressive. I'm stuck at work and in a fair amount of pain.
Fair enough my apologies.
I have actually used guides from ps3trophies.org/ps3trophies.com in the past to get the most amount of trophy's on the first play through, but honestly, some times I feel as if it just takes the fun out. Sometimes I just want to lie back and play a game without checking my computer screen every so often to make sure I haven't missed something.

I had a brief look there, but I was worried I might see spoilers.
I'm not looking for a full guide right now, just curious as to how easy it is to mop up the trophies on subsequent playthroughs.

Well that's fucking bullshit. Seriously it might be a small thing, but things like that pisses me off.
I can play around with this, first attempt:
Wow good job, thanks.

Man I love Stan and his group so much. My favourite characters by far aside from Jodie and Cole.
Cole is the best character in the game. Hands down, no debates.

Really loving this. Wasn't a massive fan of Heavy Rain. Finding the gameplay and story very interesting so far.
Just finished chapter called
Just finished chapter called
The Condenser, which upto this point have been my favourite chapter. Not sure if I've got to the sections which are supposed to poor and had disappointed the reviewers, but cant wait to see how this progresses. Can anyone confirm [without spoiling anything if I haven't each that point yet], if I have passed the chapters which the game is "supposed" to degrade?

If you have enjoyed it so far, there is a high chance you will still like it at the end. What you played so far is already considered poor by some reviewers. IMO it gets even better from your current point onwards. You just have to get ready for some supernatural and sci-fi stuff. But it is well explained and there is almost nothing wrong with the ending. So keep going.

How far into the game is Advanced Experiments (the extra DLC scene)?
Finished. There were some parts of the ending I liked but christ did it ever feel linear near the end. Felt like there was way less interaction than Heavy Rain. Less button prompts and more holding the left stick 'up' Have to write something more later.
Fake edit- Alright, the very last part, (major ending spoilers)
RIP Normand Corbeil,

Been playing this for a few hours now. Really digging this game so far. Always a huge fan of Quantic Dream's work.
For those that have already completed it; how long is this game?
