Detroit: Become Human

A Lot of Choice, A lot of Endings.
Top tier story.

The conflict between humans and Androids is oversimplified, and the things discussed are still a bit superficial. The optimization of the game is really poor! !
The praise is for Connor, Connor is soooo cute.

Спасибо за иллюзию выбора! Адекватные и взвешенные решения приводят к худшей концовке - супер! 10 соевых либерах из 10

loved it, and I really like how many important choices you have to make..

Title: Detroit: Become a Crybaby

This game lets you play as three androids: Connor, the world’s most charming robot cop who might accidentally flirt with everyone; Markus, who goes from butler to revolutionary leader like it’s a weekend project; and Kara, the mom trying to survive while the world burns around her.

The choices? Brutal. I made one bad call, and suddenly Markus was leading a riot, Kara was dodging death for the tenth time, and Connor... well, let’s just say he tested the limits of robot durability. It’s like the game knew I was indecisive and wanted to punish me for it.

The graphics are gorgeous, the story is insane, and the soundtrack? It’s so good, it’s practically a weapon against your tear ducts. Detroit: Become Human will make you laugh, cry, and question whether you should ever be trusted with responsibility again.

Detroit: Become Human is a masterfully crafted narrative-driven game that immerses players in a thought-provoking exploration of humanity, morality, and free will. Developed by Quantic Dream, the game is set in a near-future Detroit where androids coexist with humans, serving as laborers, caretakers, and companions. However, tensions rise as some androids begin to deviate from their programming, developing emotions and self-awareness.

The game’s standout feature is its branching narrative, which offers players an unparalleled level of choice. Each decision impacts the story, leading to a web of possibilities and multiple endings. The three intertwining narratives of Kara, Markus, and Connor are emotionally gripping and thematically rich, each tackling complex issues like systemic oppression, personal identity, and the ethical implications of artificial intelligence.

Visually, Detroit: Become Human is stunning, with meticulously detailed environments and realistic character animations that breathe life into its futuristic world. The voice acting and motion capture performances are exceptional, adding depth and authenticity to every interaction.

The gameplay strikes a balance between exploration, quick-time events, and dialogue choices, ensuring players remain engaged without detracting from the story. The flowchart system, which reveals the consequences of decisions, adds replayability, encouraging players to explore alternate paths.

Beyond its technical excellence, the game invites players to reflect on profound questions about what it means to be human. It’s a poignant, emotionally charged experience that stays with you long after the credits roll. For fans of narrative-driven games, Detroit: Become Human is an absolute must-play masterpiece.

There is so much choice in this game and I love it, the characters have compelling stories and you really feel for them

The game makes it clear that it's time to mend relations and sign a peace treaty with chatGPT-4 before it's too late :D

Most wonderful game i ever played, nothing much to say. Graphics, story telling, decision making everything is just amazing. 10/10

An amazingly well-crafted game with
+ a really engaging story about three different characters with different struggles and ambitions, that constantly overlap
+ very beautiful and realistic visuals (even for todays standards)
+ some of the best dialogue I have ever had the pleasure of reading and hearing
- very short game (especially if you plan on only playing it once)
- some "bad" characters are intentionally made to be so dislikeable that I could hardly stop myself from being a complete jackass to them or downright looking for ways to kill them

It makes you genuinely question your morals time and time again, turning every person's first run into their own unique story.

I started playing this game because my friend recommended me to get it during the autumn sale. At first I was afraid, afraid that I would miss out on so much of the story or "ruin" my playthrough with "wrong" decisions. But that is exactly the point. You shouldn't go for a "perfect" run in the first place, because then you could just watch videos about it, instead of playing it. The true beauty of this game lies in the ability to make every decision matter to you and no matter if it was "right" or "wrong", it was YOUR decision. Thios aspect of the game makes it feel so realistic and beautiful, which, for me, makes the difference between a good fantasy world and an ok one.

I highly recommend this game, but it is kind of short though. 8/10

One of the best "choices matter" games ive played. Incredible story

This is a brilliant game with a ton of story choices that ACTUALLY do impact outcomes a lot. You can even get unexpected endings resulting in any of the main character's early demise by choosing the wrong choices.

I've not played any of Quantic Dream's games before but Detroit surprised me with the amount of gameplay it actually had. Don't expect to just sit back and watch some movie because you'll be controlling your characters nearly all the time, even during cutscenes. The whole game is really a mix of both cutscenes and you actually having agency in these cutscenes.

Story-wise, the game hits pretty hard in the feels with its story about AI androids realizing consciousness and slowly rising up against the humans. Quantic Dream did this so well by purposely putting the player in all the androids' shoes instead of any of the humans' which forces us to learn to empathize with what the androids have to go through. Regardless the game is so free flow that you can still choose to side with the humans as an android if you wish.

Graphics-wise, holy moly this game is INSANELY GOOD LOOKING for 2018. I think this must be the very peak of video game visuals and THE BEST looking video game I have ever seen, period. Perhaps it also serves as proof that PS5/XBoxSeries gen are just unnecessary BS cash-grabs... Granted, Quantic can enjoy pushing the visuals to the max due to the linear game world but it's still damn fucking impressive.

10/10 - no complaints. PC port is done great too, but if you're playing on KB+M do note some of the key prompts can be abit confusing at first.

Great game with a captivating story. Nearly every decision changes the course of the story. I can only recommend giving this game a try.

Great graphics and story line. the camera can be janky tho

Not the best gameplay, lots of QTE eventsin fact you barely play and mostly mash the buttons you're told to.
That being said the story and the fact that every choice feels important makes it the best story driven game I've ever played.
In fact I was dissapointed by Telltale games, Detroit gave me what I expected from such a game.
The story is solid. I finished it 3 times and each playthrough was very different and quite enjoyable.

Detroit: Become Human is an outstanding interactive experience, with breathtaking visuals that bring its futuristic world to life. The compelling story is deeply engaging, tackling thought-provoking themes about AI, freedom, and what it means to be human. The characters are well-developed, each with their own motivations and emotional depth, making you genuinely care about their fates. With multiple endings shaped by your choices, the game offers replayability and a sense of agency. It’s a must-play for anyone who enjoys a rich narrative with stunning visuals and a powerful, relevant theme.

An amazing game with an amazing story. I love that no matter how many times you replay this game you can always get a different ending based on the choices you make. Small choices can affect the game greatly. This game can definitely be seen as a " life imitating art" kind of game with how AI is advancing today. I overall loved the characters and the plot, I loved the hard choices I was put through because it had me thinking of every possibility when going through with it.
My only regret is I wish I had played it sooner. 10/10.

I don't consider this to be a video game, but rather an interactive animated movie. Voice acting, visual effects, and attention to details were all superb, and are amazing examples of the level of effort I admire from game developers. However, it simply was not fun for me.

The beginning detective mechanics were very enjoyable, but afterwards I felt like I was proceeding through each chapter waiting for it to get good again. After a certain point, I just wanted to see how the stories would progress and gave up waiting for fun game play.

The endings were also disappointing for me, having felt like I had achieved optimal outcomes throughout the game, but reaching negative conclusions regardless. I am able to replay chapters for different outcomes, but it just feels like work, after work in RL.

fantastic gaming experience almost felt like you play a movie 10/10 from every aspect

*Edit: Finished first play through, and it was very emotional and so investing that it makes me want to play it again just to see the other different routes. Would deffo recommend, this is so immersive that you don't realise the time until your done

"You showed empathy, Connor"

Watched the game when I was younger, but now that I got to play it has got to be by far probably the best game I've ever played. It's so immersive, not only because of the graphics and the quick time events which you've got to always be ready for, but the story too. It's almost like you're living a second life. The game really makes you question your decisions morals and the society we live in. You really build a connection with the characters and feel like the choices you make really matter. Absolutely recommend buying, but if you don't wanna pay the full price just wait for a sale. 10/10

This game is just awesome! A must play story based game. There are various possibilities in every step and your decision makes the story progress accordingly. So, choose wisely.

It's an emotional masterpiece that blurs the line between game and interactive film. With stunning visuals and a gripping narrative, it turns every choice into a moral dilemma that sticks with you long after the credits roll. The characters are unforgettable, each tugging at your heartstrings in their fight for identity and freedom. Every decision matters, making your story feel truly unique. It’s not just a game - it’s an experience. 10/10, would question humanity’s future with androids again.

i love that u have the ability to miss hours of game play cause u wanted to see what happens if u dont move letting the demastic violence happen

Love it. This is the first "decisions matter" game that I've played that has convinced me they actually do. First game of this type that I'm actually looking forward to playing again after completing.

They should remove Connor. It's hard to focus and play with one hand.

Sold my iPhone for an Android after this game - life changing.
Other than that, story-wise is one of the best games I've played of all time, audio is just perfect, and on top of all that it's visually stunning. Pick it up at full price or on sale, I promise you that you will not regret it.

Sadly, I had to request a refund because the game would not stop crashing in Chapter 3 (the first one where you play as Kara).

The game was crashing after every chapter, but because it saved my progress, I was fine dealing with that. I was really interested in the story they were setting up, so I figured I'd just push through. But then I became hard locked at Chapter 3, and the game would crash shortly into playing as Kara no matter what I tried.

My system is a 4070 Super / 7600x / 32GB DDR5 6000Mhz 30CL and on a gen 5 NVMe. All temps were fine, so I have no idea what's going on. Can't recommend in this state, but it's probably really good if your PC can run it.

I've never been into David Cage games, or rather not since Omikron: The Nomad Soul. His writing felt silly to me. Complex concepts that feel like a child wrote them, I did feel very attracted to this game though. The entire robots having a soul thing always felt interesting to me.

The design team for the game did a stellar job, everything looks really sexy, from the robots, the suits, the cars, to the advertisement.

The story has some high points and interesting set pieces, but overall it is very unbelievable. The insane level of aggression from humans towards the androids always feels unrealistic in these kinds of stories. And if you start thinking about it for a few minutes, a lot of things don't make any sense. For example, the androids are not unique or custom made, so going undercover should be impossible since people would recognize the models. The ID cards don't make sense, since they can just scan you to find out if you're an android. The Alice plot twist is not just stupid, it completely ruined the Kara storyline for me. They didn't even change the model, she just looked like the basic child android model.

The direction the game leads you towards feels very backwards. I always felt like I had to act against my interests, because I didn't want to ruin the relationship with certain characters and ruin my chance to get the best possible ending. But ironically enough that lead me to the path of the worst ending and I mean the worst ending (every single character died, but at least they liked me). It's not intuitive at all, I feel like I have to play it multiple times or use a guide to get what I want.

Speaking of intuitive design, the controls are anything but intuitive. I can't believe they still have the shitty Fahrenheit controls. Even things like opening a door or sitting down require you to move a stick up and do this weird half circle motion, or you push the stick up and sometimes to the side, it's not consistent. The controls generally feel so inconsistent, especially during action scenes, one time you move a stick, next time you press a button, another time you hold the button or even hammer the button like a fucking retard.

I know the review doesn't sound too positive, but I would actually recommend the game. The presentation and design are really good, some characters are interesting, but the story is really flawed and rather silly.

[While I finished the game on Steam Deck, I would not give it the verification. You have to pretty much play on the lowest setting and 30FPS cap to get a somewhat smooth experience. It's definetely not the best way to experience the game.]

Time to finish: ~10 hours

if you love the 'telltale' games of old, this one has a solid story, interesting characters and great visuals. in hindsight i would not have minded to pay full retail price since its worth it, but if you can get it on discount like i have, make sure to grab it yourself! (do read specs required, since most negative feedback is about being unable to play the game)

Holy shit, this thing is 10/10 absolute cinema. Hands down, this is undoubtedly one of the top 3 best games that I've ever played. I rarely buy games, but Detroit: Become Human is easily the most well-spent money I ever used for purchasing games.
This game is memorable enough for me to decide not to touch it again to reserve the memories of the 15 hours I spent almost consecutively to finish the game. For people who are bored as shit and don't really know what game to play, I REALLY recommend trying out this game; this game will absolutely be worth every minute of your time.

It was so much fun to replay this. One of the best story based games out there. The game takes place in Detroit, where androids made by CyberLife are used as workers. People have androids like pets, they are meant to be obedient and listen to their owner.

You play as three androids: Connor, Marcus and Kara.

Connor is an android who's programmed to be an agent, find deviants (androids who imitate or develop emotions), and team up with Hank who is human.

Marcus is an android who takes care of an elderly artist. Later on, he becomes an important figure to the android/deviant revolution.

Kara is an android who was purchased to do laundry duties at a dad's house and his daughter. She eventually develops emotions and helps out the daughter, as her father is a drug addict.

The game has amazing quality, graphics and no bugs. Everything runs smooth. I have read some reviews here and there about the game crashing, my game crashed once. I looked up an optimisation and it didn't crash again.

Detroit Become Human is a multiple choice game with multiple endings. There are quick time events during fights. Your character can die early. At one point, there is a scene where you control multiple characters reacting to each other.

No doubts, get this game!

Even after all these years the game still has a lot of bugs, some of which ruin some paths, and it crashes to desktop every few hours. Typical PC port which is just a cash grab. Sad to see from such a great game. :/

I played the game for 14 hours and got the 12 / 48 achievements.

Thanks for your effort, it was great.

I recommend everyone to get this game. You should definitely play it.

Rating: 10 / 10

Don't look up anything about this game before playing it. Just let yourself be surprised. I think everyone needs to play this game, it's flawless and so incredibly detailed. 10000000/10.

Incredible story, meaningful choices, and immersive. Would definitely recommend buying this game!

Really enjoyed all the characters in this game, even with some of the cliches. The level of detail is astounding. A great ride. Kara, Chloe and Connor were my favorites.

fantastic gaming experience almost felt like you play a movie 10/10 from every aspect

The process of saving Alice from her depressed (or schizophrenic) father, who was the victim of domestic violence, gave me a thrilling, exciting feeling in the real world, my heart rate remained high, and my adrenaline was soaring. To have such a real experience is a very, very good game that can bring the player into the story.

P.S: Please be kind to Chloe, she deserves it :(

This is an interactive choose-your-own adventure with really solid graphics and a captivating story. If that sounds like what you're looking for you won't be disappointed.

Detroit: Become Human is an emotional and thought-provoking journey that masterfully blends storytelling and player choice. With stunning visuals, rich characters, and a branching narrative, every decision shapes the fate of three androids and the world they inhabit.

The game’s themes of identity, freedom, and morality are handled with depth, making each choice feel impactful. It’s a cinematic experience that blurs the line between game and interactive film.

9/10 – A gripping narrative masterpiece where your choices truly matter.

Probably one of the best games I have played in a long time. Apart from the incredible graphics, realistic characters, and extras the game has to offer, I thoroughly enjoyed the story. The choices you make affect your experience and decide the fate of the characters. I've played it over several times and I'm sure there are parts of the story I have not experienced. This game is incredibly made, respect to those involved in making it. I wish I discovered it sooner.

Spoiler-Free!

Detroit Become Human is one of the best narrative action-adventure games, with its mesmerizing visuals and amazing story! The Gameplay is mixed with walking, interacting, chase sequences, Quick time events, and investigating your environment. By taking my time to enjoy the game, I was able to finish a relaxing 18 hours for one walkthrough.

Story is compelling and keeps you hooked on what happens next. Although I found a slow start at the beginning of the story, it quickly became exciting and intense as you move forward with each character's stories. The choices matter but unlike other narrative story games, the consequences of your actions does affect character development.

The visuals are stunning in this game! It does have a shader compilation process at first launch of the game, which takes about 30 minutes or more, depending on your computer, after it you are okay to play the game smoothly anytime.

I seriously recommend this game to anybody who wants to relax and enjoy a story game to break free from their stressful lives. After finishing it, I assure you it will be one of those games you wish you could experience for the first time again.

Just finished 100% achievements for the second time (first time on PS4). Review will be more of a comparison between PS4 and PC versions.

Pros:
✅60 fps available but need to increase mouse sensitivity.
✅Keyboard/mouse inputs work for me. Didn't have issues.
✅Excellent music. Goes well with gameplay.
✅Graphics also hold well. My computer setup could maintain 60 fps with everything on Ultra/High. 5800X3D and 6700 XT.

Con(nors, *snicker*):
❌QTEs can be a bit quick and easy to miss certain commands, especially when screen shakes so much or when you have to mash a key and then quickly press a different key. QTE buttons used are quite varied compared to PS4 version: Q, W, E, A, S, D, spacebar, left-click drag left/right/up/down, left-and-right-click drag left/right/up/down.
❌Lots of inputs to progress the game. Can get tedious when cleaning up achievements.
❌Getting the achievement Escape Death is tedious, even with a good story setup. It took me 80 minutes to get this because you have to play from a few chapters before the end until game completion for this to trigger.

Overall, enjoyed playing the game again after many years of getting platinum trophy.

One of the best game I played lately. Runs very well on the Steam Deck.

Alright listen, this game isn't that bad, despite my negative review I quite liked it, on the first play-through that is, upon closer inspection of the story it is very clear that the story writer wanted to give the players as many choices as possible so that they can "Do whatever they want in this world" even though a lot of the other negative reviews here are people saying how limited their choices were, I think this would do better overall if they didn't feel forced to accommodate for so many alternatives.

Another thing, the characters except for Connor and Hank feel incredibly shallow, albeit those two are very well written and deep, multi-faceted characters the rest of the cast just feel like they're playing second fiddle to that story. the 2nd of the controllable characters Kara has the entire deeper purpose to their story basically nullified from a plot twist that's just there for shock factor (When you get to that point you'll know what I mean), some spoilers ahead: Rather than provide a look into the human and android dynamic that those two shared throughout the entirety of their story it's all thrown out the window under the pretense "Kara knew all along" and then you continue on like nothing happened??? . The 3rd playable character, Markus is literally just a plot device, it's just the, do you want android to be mad or sad? His character doesn't even make sense honestly, he talks about how he's a slave and that androids need to be free and whatever, but he had one of the kindest and most nuturing android owners, it's like a white girl going out and talking about how hard it is having to be a black man in modern society, he knows jack shit about being a slave, at worst he was a butler, his master treated him better than his own son for crying out loud .

This game is fun, but it isn't good, you can play it if you want of course, I can't stop you, but for a story game it cares a lot more about the word count than a coherent story.

The developers should add feature to watch your played game as one big movie. The graphics and story are just art
