Quantic Dream: Heavy Rain not conceptually in line with Trophies, will still have support for them though

Don’t worry, Trophy fanatics, Heavy Rain will indeed have support for that feature. Quantic Dream just hasn’t gotten around to deciding how exactly they’re going to integrate it into the game.

Don’t worry, Trophy fanatics, Heavy Rain will indeed have support for that feature. Quantic Dream just hasn’t gotten around to deciding how exactly they’re going to integrate it into the game.

“We havenÂ’t figured out, as of yet, how the trophy system is going to work. ItÂ’s not necessarily a game that is conceptually in line with what trophies should do”, Quantic Dream co-CEO Guillaume de Fondaumiere told SPOnG at the GameHorizon conference.

“Again, itÂ’s not about succeeding or failing. ItÂ’s not about doing the right thing or doing the wrong thing. ItÂ’s about the journey. The journey is the most important thing. So, to a certain degree, I would say weÂ’re not rewarding the players in a conventional way. The reward is the emotional experience, is how good the story is from the playerÂ’s perspective.”

Quantic Dream hasn’t set a release date yet for Heavy Rain, and it looks like we may have to wait a while based on the developers’ earlier statements that there’s still a lot of work to be done on it. In the meantime, got any ideas on how to integrate Trophies into the game? Sound of in the comments section.
