When the killer is revealed, why is >!Scott!< seen burning all the evidence? I mean I know it's to stop anyone from tracing it back to him, but >!as he was posing as a private detective!<, why would anyone suspect him? Also, if anybody did trace it back to him, how was he supposed to explain why he got rid of it all? Was he just feeling guilty that he's the killer, as you know he doesn't have this smug thought on his face knowing he won't get caught.

The controls on this game are tedious enough as it is but I’m trying to pick a lock as Madison but you have to tilt the controller during it and 10 attempts in it still won’t register!!!!! It also took me about 20 attempts to complete the tilting when Ethan sleeps with Madison😩😩😩 i hate thisssss

Game randomly freezes within the first 15 minutes but audio still works. Tried running the game as administrator but that didn't solve. Any other advices. Thanks.

P. S Windows 10, NVIDEA GEFORCE 940MX, i5

A lot of David Cage writing leaves something to be desired, to the point of perhaps warranting a full rewrite. But if you had an opportunity to change or remove ONE thing from the story, what would it be?

Personally, I would either

a) Make Scott Shelby die in final confrontation due to asthma attack. I was REALLY expecting that to happen due to how big of a deal it was in early game, but nope, Scott is suddenly a superhuman now

b) Either remove Ethan having blackouts or expand on them. Obviously there is a lot of cut content when it comes to those that feels like it would've made the story a bit more intriguing

So basically I just started the game. And my theory is that shaun snuck away and grew up to become the killer, to get back at his dad for killing the bird.

I’ve tried to drive against the traffic successfully soooo many times but the game won’t recognise my tilts so he crashes every single time😭 how am i tilting the controller WRONG? This happened to anyone else???

I've been playing Heavy Rain (from Steam) on my ROG Ally for more than five hours. For the most part it runs butter smooth. 60 fps at 1280x720. I've started to notice that the game has started to stutter for a few minutes after loading a new scene. It didn't do that in the beginning. What happens is that a new scene loads and starts playing, but the game will randomly drop to 1-2 fps or completely freeze for up to 2 seconds before continuing. After one or two minutes this stuttering goes away and the rest of the scene plays butter smooth again. This is not very dramatic usually, but sometimes the stuttering happens in the midst of a long sequence of quick time events and usually causes one or two misses because no input is registered in time. This is very frustrating.

The ROG Ally has more than enough power to handle the game at my medium settings and it also has a fast M.2 SSD so there should not be any hardware bottlenecks. Is this a known issue or how can I alleviate this problem? I feel like I'm getting towards the end of the game and the stuttering is really putting me off. :-(

So I’m going back to this game for the first time since 2019 to get the platinum & I was caught of guard by the QTE Sex scene, it got me thinking this must be the only game to have a QTE Sex scene

I was enjoying the game at the beginning but the more I played the more i got frustrated with the stupid controls. Not even Beyond two souls (which i enjoyed) has controls SO bad as this game.

Terrible camera angles that constantly switches into nonsensical positions, movement that is half-responsive, quick time events that work 50% of the time...

!During the chapter in which the appartment was on fire i walked into it multiple times just because game decided that when i pushed left, it meant up or right. At the end of the game, I got everybody to the right location, but when I was about to get inside with Page on the motorbike, the controls didnt get my inputs and she slid on the bike and i guess that is why Ethan got shot. !<

I wanted to like this game, but when the most memorable thing i got was constanlty fighting the controls, it left just bitter taste in my mouth.

After playing Detroit, which i really enjoyed and Beyond which I still enjoyed while fighting the controls, Heavy rain was just torture for me.

This is something that I can't understand.

In "The Rat", I chose to take the poison, but shortly after Jayden also found out the killer's identity ane location, and Madison's information meant nothing as both possible characters already knew. I'm now wondering if I can keep the progress from earlier on that led to this while reverting to "The Rat" and refusing to take the poison so that Madison can tell Ethan the location instead.

SPOILER WARNING

!I!<>!don't know if it was explained in the game and/or if it's self-explanatory, but if you miss a spot at that one shop and it plays that cutscene of Scott at the police station, he and Blake have like this small interaction and I wanna know..how exactly do they know each other? Maybe it was going to be explained in Scott's Heavy Rain Chronicle DLC, but since that didn't get released...!<

!Just a random thought. !<

Does anyone know if madison's purple jacket is for sale anywhere? It's actually a pretty cool jacket and I would not mind having it (depending on the price and shipping that is).

We could also include when/how these characters achieve these endings, like deaths. This also includes NPCs dying, like The Doc, Hassan, Nathaniel, Brad, Mad Jack and Kramer.

I'll start.

Ethan (dead) - Ethan's Grave (Ethan arrived alone at the warehouse and spared Scott, but was shot by the police)
Norman (alive) - Resignation (Norman survived his death opportunites, but hasn't found the Warehouse)
Madison (alive) - Square One (Madison survived all her death opportunities but hasn't found the Warehouse)
Scott (dead) - A Mother's Revenge (As Ethan spared him and Lauren was left alive, Lauren shoots Scott)

NPC statuses:
Shaun - alive
Lauren - alive
Hassan - dead
Brad - dead (I don't think killing him is too common)
The Doc - alive (Madison left early)
Nathaniel - dead
Mad Jack - dead
Kramer - alive

This result is probably not as rare as I think it would be, but I can't imagine people intentionally getting this on a common/average run, like a first playthrough. Leave your 'rarest possible run' in the comments so we can discuss this.

Be cool if we got a remake or a remaster with high res textures and 60fps. But unfortunately dream are working on a boring star wars game so we ain't getting anything original from them for another decade.
