The video above was shown yesterday during Sonyās E3 conference. It is of a game that, until now, weād thought was about a young woman growing up with weird powers, working her way through a story featuring lots of rain, and emotions
Then this turns up. And I was half-expecting Hideo Kojima to pop up at the end with a wink.
I almost wish it hadnāt been shown, because itās one of the most arresting about-faces Iāve ever seen for a gameās marketing campaign. Just when you thought youād be controlling a girl growing up with supernatural powers ā Sabrina meets Heavy Rain ā you suddenly find itās Sabrina meets Heavy Rain meets Jason Bourne
How amazing would it have been to go into the game, with Indigo Prophecy and Heavy Rain informing your expectations of a Quantic Dream game, to suddenly hit a point with this?
It would have been one hell of a sucker punch. I hope the impact it made yesterday was worth the āspoilerā.
