I found it so unique compared to games like Resident Evil 5 where the A.I. Throughout the game you can interact with your squad members through your microphone or hotbar inputs to increase rapport.
One of the big mechanics that was promoted at the game shows up to its release was the ever popular at the time ‘QTE’s’ or Quick Time Events that asked the player to perform specific button inputs at precise timing during cinematic, action-packed cutscenes, what I found to be even more unique and deserving of attention however is the communication system. The problem being, somebody didn’t listen and these Hollow Children are not even aware they are robots. To govern the research and development, the ‘new geneva convention’ was born one of these new laws under the name of Clause 21 banned research into robots that could pass for humans, called “Hollow Children”. Set in the 21st century after a culling of human life from flooding and climate change (Topical), the national powers that be had begun building new cities above the old ones using the ‘flood levels’ as foundation, but with so little of humanity left who was going to build these structures? - More advanced robots became a necessity. Developed by the creators of Yakuza (Ryu Ga Gotoku studio), Binary Domain is a testament to developers who dare to do more than the standard of the genre. It had everything from that cliché Japanese humour, Complex Character mechanics, huge set pieces, good voice acting, R.P.G. Off the back of the popularity of the high-octane third person shooter Vanquish, SEGA published in the following year a game of a similar tone. Binary Domain is arguably one of my favourite games from the Xbox 360 and PS3 generation.
