Without meaning to sound too harsh to David, famous for titles such as Heavy Rain and Beyond: Two Souls, there are still reasons as to why this just simply needs to be said. David Cage cannot write. Well he can write, just not well. What I mean by this, is his stories are riddled with more plot holes than a fishing net. Seeing as he writes and directs “interactive” dramas that need to rely on their story, David Cage has a talent for ruining them. However Telltale Games, which is a much more smaller company than David Cage’s Quantic Dream manages to actually push out good games such as The Walking Dead. There are many things to run through, such as how Telltale grew, some of David Cages past work and how Telltale Games writing rivals up with David Cages.
Adam Williams has left Quantic Dream behind to form his own studio.
The departure of the lead writer likely means the story is done. The trailer for this game is amazing. Hope it comes out soon.
Quantic Dream are set to offering hands-on opportunities at PAX East 2024, but which game it will be has not yet been revealed.
Quantic Dream has announced a new publishing label, Spotlight, following the reveal of debut title Under the Waves.
Interesting to see how this works out for them. QD have had a very lucrative partnership with Sony. David Cage is a household name among Playstation owners, and he might not have been if QD stuck with Atari as their publisher. Now they're launching Spotlight so they can circumvent Sony exclusivity? I imagine this isn't the last we'll hear from Spotlight.
Weren’t QD bought buy Tencent, and if so then I’m sure there wouldn’t be anymore Sony exclusivity.
Ok it seems to have been NetEase that bought them back in 2022.
this is not a Sony exclusivity. you can clearly see Xbox One Xbox Series X ps4 ps5
Funny you mention that because in a few Diablo 4 articles, Xbox was the only console that was tagged. It didn't tag playstation or PC and Diablo 4 is a multiplatform game
Bro they had a 3-game contract with Sony. That ended with Detroit. They've haven't been working together since then, so they aren't circumventing anything. They have no obligation to Sony.
Didn’t they show a Star Wars fake at a Sony event?
I might be wrong about that, but I feel like that’s where I saw if.
I don't think so. There some sources claiming Sony was not happy with their partnership at the end, they even canceled a project that was supposed to be the 4th ps exclusive from QD.

Can’t wait for all those quicktime events and bash-you-with-boredom storytelling.
There's nothing wrong with QTE's. Never understood the hate for them. You press a single button to attack in most games. You press a single button to jump in most games. Why does it then become an issue when you press a button during a cutscene to do something?
David Cage simply cannot write and that's the downfall of his games. He thinks he's a much better writer than he actually is and he refuses to stop making QTE games that expose his bad writing ability. I've said for years Quantic Dream could become an elite studio if they ditched the QTE formula and just did a straight out gameplay oriented game and ditched David Cage from writing these scripts. Farenheit, Heavy Rain, and Beyond 2 Souls are FILLED with plot holes. Embarrassing amount of plot holes and the gameplay in Beyond 2 Souls is awful.
