Towards the visuals, I think the screenshots in this post reflect an accurate look of how good the game looks in PlayStation VR2.īefore Your Eyes is a beautifully woven narrative that will leave you feeling very empathic by the end. The second time I sat in a chair more relaxed and didn’t hold the Sense controllers. The game is so good that it didn’t even annoy me that I had to replay most of the game again. When I booted it back up I had to start again, so I waited till the next day and finished it without any problems in one sitting.
There was a bug that crashed the game for me when I was three-quarters through. One of my favourite games is Virginia and it cuts to the next scene before you are given all the context allowing for me to fill in the blanks and give my own interpretation to the story. Personally a downfall of the game is there is too much context to the story at times. When I was blinking more I enjoyed the pacing of the story better. Sometimes you blink forgetting that you shouldn’t and you are onto the next scene. When the narrative ramps up into adulthood I was blinking much more as my eyes tired and I would have scenes skipped faster than I wanted. The eye tracking never misses a beat, showing how well it works when the whole game is reliant on using it to function. To say more would spoil a story that is one of the best narrative experiences I’ve played in a game.īefore Your Eyes is just that, every moment passes with the blink of your eye. The ferryman brings you back from time to time and it’s here that you understand some unexpected events that reinterprets the whole story you’ve experienced. As you age the weight of the world gets deeper, and more sorrowful. Starting from a baby you experience some monumental moments, maybe too many, at first they are of birthdays, your first pet, learning the piano. On the way the ferryman wants to hear your story, all of it, from birth to death. Most importantly, though, it encouraged me to live more in the moment. During this review, the player relives their most precious moments and is presented with various scenarios to choose from. It seamlessly intertwined a simple but powerful story with innovative controls. In Before Your Eyes, the Ferryman guides the player through a life review before they appear before the Gatekeeper. Before Your Eyes took me on an emotional journey. The ferryman of the boat is a wolf who is taking you to be judged on the life you lived. Because of his mother’s version of the story, Benjamin can accept the life that he lived and closes his eyes. The game starts off with you as a soul on a ferry. Before Your Eyes will take you on an immersive and emotional experience using only your eyes. Now without any sickness VR experiences are immersive, and the distractions of the outside world fade out. The motion sickness I would find with every session of the original PlayStation VR is not present here. PlayStation VR2 is really beginning to feel natural the more and more I use it.
