My Take
David Cage fascinates me precisely because he divides people. As the founder of Quantic Dream and the mind behind Heavy Rain, Beyond: Two Souls, and Detroit: Become Human, he has spent his career insisting that games can be emotional, branching cinema. I do not always think his writing lands, but I deeply respect his refusal to compromise that vision, and his willingness to direct, write, and compose. The Legion of Honour feels earned. To me, Cage is less a flawless author than a stubborn pioneer, and the medium is richer for his ambition, even when it stumbles.
