The choices you make in-game have a fairly minor impact on the overall story. And when you blink and open your eyes to the next page of the story it adds an emotional, fleeting-life resonance to the tale at hand. In practice, the blinking mechanism is quite ingenious and it makes you want to keep staring as you pick up important moments in the quickly aging young man’s life. (You can use the mouse as a substitute for blinks if your computer isn’t equipped with a camera.) These include connecting star-dots while sitting at night on a beach or playing a piano in rhythm-based challenges, among other challenges. You also use your mouse to make story direction choices and perform mini-games. The game learns to recognize your eye-movements and advances the story-several minutes, hours, days or years-as you blink.
#Before your eyes free series
Gameplay-wise, Benjamin’s story becomes a series of blink-and-you-might-miss-it moments from his life. So, Benjamin’s story must be factual and honest if you don’t want fast passage to the nearest salt-encrusted dock and seagull misery. On top of that, there’s one other stressor in the mix: the gatekeeper has the ability to quickly ferret out lies or untruths. It’s the Ferryman’s job to present that story to “The Gatekeeper.” Recounting the tale will either prompt the gatekeeper to let worthy souls enter into a heavenly city or be banished to exist as a seagull: sentenced to squawk endlessly at the world. Then a weathered dog-like Ferryman pulls him out of this river of souls and asks him to recount his life story. As things begin, Benjamin has already passed on and finds himself a bodiless soul floating in an abstract, dreamy world. This game lets you play as a young guy named Benjamin Bryyn-or at least as his soul. And Before Your Eyes-an indie visual novel game that uses your computer’s camera to track your blinks and eye movements as part of the gameplay-definitely brings that adage to mind. That said, I would DEFINITELY recommend watching.Life sometimes feel like it’s passing in a blink. Not to get into spoilers, I was happy with the content, but not crazy about how it was presented and structured. What's more, I wasn't the biggest fan of how they executed the last few scenes. I believed every line Eui Soo said, but felt disconnected from the few delivered by Gi Chan. Since the cast was small and the plot was simple, it all relied on the acting skills of Gi Chan and Eui Soo.
At times I could not connect to the emotions he tried to convey. There were a few scenes where I was not completely convinced by Gi Chan's acting (like the talk with his dad in the last episode). If I noticed them, it means they were really good :) Usually I don't pay that much attention to ost, but the songs used here were truly amazing and fitting. That's the highlight of the show- amazing chemistry between Gi Chan and Eui Soo. The dynamics of them, the jealousy they tried to tame. Playful and flirty Tae Joo driving the stoic and collected Gook mad. Tae Joo and Kang Gook are nothing alike, but that's why they work so well together. I think extending this drama could ruin it. They used the screen time efficiently and showed a cohesive story from the beginning till the end. Not once was I confused about the plot or characters' motivations. With this type of plot it would be hard to make a good show, which wouldn't be a cheap fan service. Some people wished it was longer, but I honestly disagree. everything works in such a harmonious and perfect way, I fell for the show and died a few times waiting for the next episodes to air. While the story is extremely simple, the directing, editing, acting, ost. All the best tags we can find in fanfics are here too. Pinning over each other for years, longing and wanting the other, but never taking the step forward, protecting each other, making sure the other is not hurt. Truth to be told, it strongly felt like every fanfic ever came to life and. You know that perfect angst that rather than making you feel like you want to die, makes your heart flutter? That was it.
