Detroit is the legitimate best QuanticDream game. If you want pure trashy schlock, Indigo Prophecy is unrivaled. Heavy Rain is somewhere in the middle. Beyond Two Souls is easily the worst of the four and doesn't even have any schlock value to it. No clue on Omikron.

At least, that's my opinion after seeing playthrough videos of them online. Detroit's the only one to make me actually want to play it for myself, but I haven't gotten to it yet. Someday though.

If David Cage and his studio were Japanese, there would be nothing but universal praise for these games.

All the things people criticize him and his games for, are the exact same things people eat up in more Japanese style games.

Typically I find a lot of the people who hate the nonsensical plots and dialogue in David Cage games are also the kinds who constantly trashtalk "dumb anime bullshit" as well, so I disagree.

Another difference is while Japanese games often embrace or acknowledge their insanity or excessive nature, or have moments of comic relief for levity, David Cage games constantly take themselves super seriously despite how nonsensical they get. Some people can't enjoy stuff that's trashy but takes itself super seriously. I totally can though. In fact, I kinda like it more, especially when the ones that acknowledge themselves or try to have some levity rely heavily on sooooo wacky audio or visual cues to do so, like all the characters shouting "WHAAAAAAAAT" as the screen wobbles around and a stock spring sound effect plays.
