Rant after finishing the game

5 Upvotes

I knew abut this game for a long time but only now decided to play it, honestly I expected much more, I remembered it as an awesome game but this is really poorly made.

I see a lot of people complaining about the nonchronological storytelling, I see no problem with it, but the combat system is disgusting, and generally moving or anything, characters constantly get stuck on random objects so I need to restart the game to get them unstuck,

choices have no real point since the game has a fixed story and nothing much changes depending on your choices,

any QTS is also just a disaster and I don't even know why Cage thought it would be a good idea for players to just guess where to move the mouse, and even when you do move it or press some keys, the game just decides to be unresponsive to some commands, it's hella inconsistent with its in game rules,

sometimes you can move Aiden like 50m and others times you can't move him 5m to reach a guard, also the Aiden mechanic is just hell, you can't decide who you can control or kill or anything and that just makes some situations seem hella dumb,

also the game forces Jodie to choose total assholes for love interests, you can either pick a dude who lied to you and didn't comfort you at all when Jodie was crying cause of the rape thing and just left or the other asshole who wanted to leave you alone in the desert to die of thirst and has no human decency towards people he doesn't know,

but I can't emphasize enough how bad the movement in this game is, had to restart like 40 times cause of the amount of times the characters got stuck, not just Jodie, but Ryan, Cole, Aiden, can't belive how it's possible for Aiden who is a fucking ghost who can go through walls, to get stuck between some invisible barriers that were put there for no reason,

also the world Jodie lives in is just stupid, you can't trust nobody and nobody has any common sense, honestly this game is like maybe a 4/10.

A "little" late

9 Upvotes

As a person who loves this kind of games, I cannot understand how this game flew under my radar for this long??? I played almost all "Decisions/choices" games but somehow, Beyond:Two Souls, never popped up on my radar. I loved it!

One thing I HATED or maybe playing chronological order might clear it up, was Ryan. How in the world was he a love interest? Blows my mind. You know well I made sure Aiden just stick it up to him all the time. Is he not even way older than Jodie? Anyways I hated that it felt very forced and just out of nowhere, not a fan of him.

The Aiden mechanic, hooooly. Now one of my fav mechanics in gaming, I loved it!!! I was pretty adamant on the fact that, we the players were Aiden lol. I was thinking something like 4th wall esque-ish thing going on, but we all know how that turned out to be. AMAZING!!!

The end choice was very clear to me, I was so hoping to see the gang and immediately chose Zoey, rest of the choices made no sense to me. Of course, from a first playthrough perspective.

That's it for me folks, lovely game. A little late to the fandom, but i'm here!

I suck in combat

5 Upvotes

I play the game with a controller and I'm terrible in every combat situation. Somehow I managed to complete the CIA training but after that I get beaten up every time. I have no idea in which direction I should move. What to do if someone wants kick me? What to do if I'm attacked with a machete? In whichever direction I move the joy, I get hurt. It's very frustrating.

Puede alguna buena persona regalarme este juego en steam?? No me alcanza por unos centimos para comprarlo

Ahora mismo el juego esta muy barato por las ofertas de verano. Me he enterado; no se nada del juego pero me han hablado muy bien de el (me gusta life is strange y the walking dead, aunque solo haya jugado la T1, son mi unico contacto con estos juegos) He vendido mi pobre inventario de cs y me ha dado un total de 1,74$, lo que no es suficiente para comprarlo ;(. Si alguien fuera tan amable para comprarlo se lo agradeceria muchisimo. Dejo mi ID de amigo de steam aqui, muchas gracias

I want to know if I will get “All Endings…” achievement

6 Upvotes

Hi, I have 44/45 achievement for Beyond Two Souls, and the last one is “All Endings” I read a guide for it, and it seemed doable, but would take a lot of time, but that’s the most annoying part because I already have 50 hours in this game.

I had played from “Homeless” to get the “Everyone is dead” achievement and I joined the infraworld, go beyond, then months later I came back to get this last achievement, I played black sun, everyone dead, chose life. Then in epilogue I chose Jay, after credits, instead of black sun, I pressed continue which loaded at the start of the epilogue, I saw it as a huge time saver. So I did it 3 times and chose every ending with the credits.

Now I am at Norah with everyone alive, I will play until black sun then I will do the endings with that one where you fail to press the buttons and die, that too. At the end I have to replay black sun 3 times, 1:fail to go through souls to shut down the condenser. 2:chose beyond 3 chose life, then I’ll do the same thing with epilogue.

So that’s my plan. But in the guide it said - reload from black sun, but I pressed continue and I am not sure if it counted, I am so exhausted from this game, 50 hours of the same cutscenes and choices I make makes me annoyed so bad.

So, my question - will I get the achievement or do I need to play from “Homeless” again?

So I just finished the game for the first time... and then replayed it.

And I have to say, I really like the premise of it. Being spiritually tethered to an entity who protects you and being able to play as both is actually really interesting and fresh to me. I like Jode, Aiden and Cole, Ryan not so much... (I chose the alone ending. My Jodie only needs Aiden lol)

That being said: I feel like the controls are way too extra (I mean, come on... That dash to the condenser in Black Sun was ridiculous... click your mouse and 4, 2, 3, 1, left shift, etc... UGH annoying... also cooking dinner in The Dinner was unnecessarily complicated) and the storytelling is really clunky. I had to go into chronological mode because I just couldn't track Jodie's character growth at all, and to be honest I wanted to get the boring child memories out of the way first. I had much more fun playing as Aiden than I did Jodie. So yeah. Great premise, just the execution was a bit messy to me. This is not a hate post. I really like the storyline and some of the characters, just the gameplay and storytelling were off to me. Thoughts? Am I the only one who was about driven crazy by the mechanics?

Can't find a single available interaction, only choice seems to be to run across the street and inevitably get caught?

So does everyone agree that Ryan is a horrible character?

37 Upvotes

Just finished the game for the first time and if I'm being honest, I thought it was pretty disappointing. The story was decent and the characters were ok (except for Ryan) but the gameplay was horrible and for a game that's supposed to be all about choices, very few of them actually make a difference.

However, by far the worst part of the game was Ryan. One of the worst characters in any game I've played. I did everything to not romance him, scared him off with Aiden during the date, then outright rejected him the two times he says he loves her but I ended up choosing the 'beyond' ending purely so that Jodie wouldn't end up with him, I just knew that despite rejecting him multiple times that the game would force Jodie to be with him if I chose the 'life' ending, so I literally chose to die just so Jodie wouldn't end up with Ryan.

If it weren't for Ryan I'd probably like the game more but because of him I probably wouldn't give the game any higher than a 6/10.

I’m currently playing Beyond: Two Souls and I'm on 'The Condenser' chapter. I’ve run into a bug where a door won't open, which prevents me from progressing and finishing the chapter. I've already tried restarting the game, replaying the level, and even reinstalling it, but nothing worked. What should I do to fix this? I’m attaching a screenshot below

Question Regarding 'All Endings' Trophy and Saving and Not Saving

Post image
9 Upvotes

Hello everyone.

I'm currently trying to earn all the trophies in Beyond Two Souls (PS4) and had a question regarding how to earn the 'All Endings' Trophy while managing the saving option at the start of Black Sun properly so I don't lose progress.

So far, I believe I got 3 endings. 1st for choosing Beyond with everyone dead, 2nd for choosing Life with everyone dead and staying alone and 3rd for dying at the containment centre by failing all the QTEs.

However, I noticed that upon reaching the 3rd ending where Jodie dies at the containment centre, the epilogue choice screen states that I only earned the path titled "Wandered the Infraworld" while the 2nd ending I earned titled "Chose to stay alone" has now been overwritten with the words "unplayed path". As seen in the image I have attached.

May I please get an explanation about this? Was it because I chose "No save" when I attempted the Life ending but selected "Save" when I attempted the Containment Centre Death? Does progress with ending not track if I select "No save" upon restarting Black Sun? Or am I good?

If so, it seems I might have some replaying to do. The guide I'm following right now stated to not save hence why I chose that on my 2nd run.

Any insight you guys can provide on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

I’m very early game and haven’t beaten it yet so please no spoilers. But I just wanted to say. Fuck the DUFFER BROTHERS. I thought stranger things was a damn master piece (seasons 1-4) until I played this game! What a couple of damn rip offs! Nathan DAWKINS a scientist takes care of and mentors/controls a young girl with abilities activated by her mind (ik there’s Aiden) gets nose bleeds when using powers, breaks free from the lab to fight back (I assume) there’s an alternate dimension (upside down????) like come tf on!! DAWKINS = HAWKINS Jodie is eleven HELL THE GAME STARTED WITH BASICALLY HOPPER TALKING TO ELEVEN. I’m more mad about this than I should be. Sorry. Thank you for coming to my ted talk.

Edit: Just got passed the part after we wake up from the bat to the head, before actually waking up, you see a ALL BLACK AREA WITH WATER ON THE DAMN GROUND AND THATS IT!!! LIKE COME TF ON! Date: 4/30/26
