Lol, what's your favorite David Cage "game"?

I'm not insulting you... I never insult anyone.
I'm just stating how this isn't a way to start a discussion.
Maybe Omikron but I haven't played it in over 20 years. Detroit's the best of interactive story ones.
Detroit, mostly for Hank and Connor doing their best to not listen to David Cage and inject some personality into their characters

I don't mean you specifically just in general , my opinion shall remain the same 🤷♂️

Yeah sure his company is doing it's hardest to silence sexual assault victims but his games are deep, man!
You could have stated your opinion in a better way that we can take it more seriously and start an actual healthy discussion.
But whatever you made your statement in this way.. I simply cannot get into a discussion this way.
Peace.

Fair enough, you don't need to take it seriously , its just me stating my opinion on this.

Is it that wrong to be snarky sometimes , people here do it all the time , but I respect your opinion :)
Detroit is great. I honestly think that Beyond is really underrated. I loved Ellen Page's performance and controlling Aiden made for some really interesting moments. Heavy Rain has aged much worse than Beyond even though it was met with a better critical reception.
I mean, LOL "GAMEZ"!!1

Detroit for sure. I think it's pretty underrated actually.
Played through it after getting it for free through Plus and was surprised what a step up it was from Beyond or Heavy Rain.
The story still has plenty of cringe and eye roll worthy moments, but the production values are the best they have ever been and Connor/Hanks dynamic is genuinely entertaining.
The various locations and environments are all pretty interesting in their own right also.

Making a thread literally laughing at the person you wish to discuss while being condescending about their work is way beyond snarky.... actually "beyond" is a bad word to describe it since it is actually very low and beneath a lot of people here.
David Cage lost a court case for harassment and overworking of the Quantic Dream staff.
But apparently not thinking his games are games is the line crossed.

User Warned - Trolling
That was the purpose , I don't respect David Cage or his contributions to the video game industry, he is a piece of shit.
Your thread is shit and you obviously created it in bad faith. Acting like his games aren't games because you don't like them is your problem.

Maybe it's a bit too on the nose for some, but I think most people use it as tongue-in-cheek rather than ridiculing it. And I mean, historically, Cage has been more inclined to call his work movies rather than traditional games. :p
yes, Detroit's a good time.
people go off on how 'surface level' the themes are and how 'blatant' it is with what it's pushing... and that may well be true.
but, it was a genuinely engaging character drama and i loved the setting of having AI folk that aren't 'quite there' in comparison to humans, but learn to grow to become more and more like them.
i'd say i loved Kara's whole arc the most. the idea of her slowly getting to grips with the fact that her 'master' is an abusive prick, and the fact that she can truly care about another human being even beyond her orders was such an interesting dynamic.

I know you may not agree with my opinion but I appreciate your responses.
Yeah, Detroit is thematically wild, but it's very good technically and presentation-wise, and at least remains coherent throughout its length, without resorting to bizarre plot holes like Heavy Rain or the deus ex Mayans of Fahrenheit.
(They're all 100% games though. "Not a game" is always a lame attack)
That the game with David Bowie in it? Because that would be the only reason I'd want to check it out.
The only Cage
I thought the game got boring as hell and I just wanted it to be over when I played the real deal, though.
I've enjoyed almost all of their games to varying degrees. That's fine if you want to rag on Cage. He's problematic as fuck. I just feel bad for the rest of the team at QD when I see threads like this. Like, what was the goal in creating this thread? Is this valuable conversation?
This site is filled with thousands of comments ripping on all kinds of games.

No its not valuable , just me stating my worthless opinion on him and his creations.

OK, but, that's also a shame.
You're honest, at least! :)

I mean every post here are opinions so I don't get the super hate for not calling David Cage real games.
Indigo Prophecy
It blew my mind when I first played it. The whole idea of it, guy comes to, and suddenly it seems as if he killed someone. I got to control the suspect, and the investigator. It was amazing, and after that games that did that were cool, but not as cool because I did it before (I.E. Heavy Rain).

It really isn't, not unless the act of any but the gentlest of criticism is a shame.
The fact that Bowie is in it seems like it would make it better but actually just makes you feel bad that he was conned into working with such garbage.
It's really bad.
