What Is The Point Of Beyond: Two Souls?

Note: These are my personal views. GameRevolutionÄ‚ËĂ˘â€šÂ¬Ă˘â€žËs Nick Tan reviewed Beyond: Two Souls and actually liked it, so maybe IÄ‚ËĂ˘â€šÂ¬Ă˘â€žËm just crazy.

I have controlled my video games in many different ways over the years. I have tilted my PlayStation 3 controller to guide the trajectory of a petal in flower; I have swung my WiiMote to simulate hitting a tennis ball in Wii Sports; I have even lethargically gyrated my hips in order to mimic a thoroughly degraded dancing Han Solo in Kinect Star Wars. More so than any other entertainment medium, video games offer a myriad of ways in which you can experience them. The recently released Beyond: Two Souls, though, continues developer Quantic DreamÄ‚ËĂ˘â€šÂ¬Ă˘â€žËs trend of taking control away from the player, instead choosing to guide you carefully through its story rather than having you explore it. The question being asked of it by its detractors, though, is why?
