Developer Quantic Dream, with the release of the Heavy Rain: Director’s Cut, has released some interesting stats regarding the progress of players in the game.
According to the developer, nearly three quarters of all those who logged into Heavy Rain finished the game, but only 33% of the three million who played the game managed to keep every single character alive while doing so.
Furthermore, 95% of players successfully completed the game’s first action sequence and 65% managed to rescue lead character Ethan Mars’ son Shaun. Finally, only 4% of the players saw all the game’s possible endings, and only a mere 3% earned the game’s platinum trophy of seeing every ending.
The quick-time action/adventure suspense thriller game, which was the subject of debates as to whether it was even a game or not, received a 8.2/10 review from Strategy Informer.
