Cantina Banter #6 | Quantic Dream, The Studio Behind Star Wars Eclipse

Are our choices really our own? Join your host as they dive deep into the interactive drama and intricate choice architecture of Quantic Dream's most ambitious narrative experiences: Beyond: Two Souls and Detroit: Become Human.

We break down our own distinct playthroughs—from Jodie's supernatural path and Aiden's presence to the diverging fates of Connor, Markus, and Kara—to unpack the studio's storytelling style.

• By analyzing the themes of destiny, deviancy, and moral ambiguity in these two games, what can we truly expect from the developer's upcoming High Republic action-adventure, Star Wars Eclipse?

Will the Outer Rim's destiny be forged by free will or a hidden narrative tether? We speculate on the future of choice-based gameplay in a galaxy far, far away!
