![]() If that sounds a bit otherworldly, it's meant to. ![]() ![]() "Free to see what lies beyond death, hence the title." "We want players to feel free to explore the consequences of their actions," Fondaumière said as he walked me through a level of the game set in a poor and heavily militarized part of Somalia in search of a warlord to assassinate. It's going to be "more epic, more action-oriented, more spectacular" than "Heavy Rain" was, he promised, "but also, I think, more emotional." This means that playing as Page's character Jodie Holmes will have more blockbuster-style setpieces, but Fondaumière insisted they were all made in service of "Beyond's" overall goal of capturing her entire life as a character. Speaking to Fondaumière about his work felt almost silly at first given how quickly he switched between talking about the more pragmatic elements of developing "Beyond" and the grand, sweeping artistic ambitions he and Cage brought to the game. If Quantic Dream didn't already prove that with "Heavy Rain's" gritty story about a serial killer and an abducted child, it's hoping to outdo itself with "Beyond: Two Souls." Fondaumière and his co-CEO David Cage enlisted high-profile actors Ellen Page and Willem Dafoe to star as the game's two main characters, and both developers are promising that the game will feature more variable outcomes and possible endings than even "Heavy Rain" did.
