    This game is probably the best story driven game I have ever played. It has an intriguing story, with a lot of different outcomes. Because choices really do matter. And some of them are very hard to make. The character design is absolutely brilliant, and so is the story. Amazing.

    Really good game, everything is spot-on especially the emotional music, but there are some minor flaws and bugs.

    Detroit is outstanding. The story is incredibly impactful, the characters are complex, the graphics are incredible, and the music is amazing. It goes places where many games and movies wouldn't, it gives the player incredibly hard decisions to make, and the end result is a project that you can tell the people working on it cared about.

    Great story-telling and acting. These two make it an amazing game, there's no need for extremely pushing gameplay or mind blowing action, it's main point is how this game is extremely bending, you can shape the story yourself and actually see the outcome of your choices.

    Three amazing independent stories. Choices that really impact the gameplay heavily, not just cosmetically like in many cases of "your choices matter" nowadays. The game is beautifull, the shooting and directing is amazing, better than in many movies in my opinion. And let's not forget about the music. Possibly the best game of Quantic Dream yet.

The thing that makes Detroit extraordinary is its refusal to lapse into the usual 'killer robot' cliches that are so common in the sci-fi genre. Instead, we are asked to consider a more nuanced vision of the future.

    Why is empathy a desirable quality to instill into artificial life? What happens to ordinary people left behind by new forms of automation? Are we doomed to repeat the mistakes of our past as we attempt to create obedient servants rather than equal partners? The exploration of these themes gives this title depth and emotional resonance well beyond what you would expect to find in modern video games.

    I hope that two to three decades from now, we will have the chance to answer the questions that Detroit has posed. 10/10, without reservations.    … Expand

This game has the most branching storylines I've ever seen, or even heard of. You know that "illusion of choice" thing that Telltale does? This is pretty much the polar opposite of that, and it's very transparent - at the end of each chapter, you see a flow chart that shows you everywhere the narrative could, and did, diverge. So the replay value of Detroit is off the charts (though a softie like me just replays the same storyline where everything works out for everyone possible because I don't have the heart to make any of my characters suffer). And, while imperfect, the story is gripping and draws people in. As I've been playing the game in my living room, members of my family who don't play video games who were just walking by have found themselves sitting with me for hours to see what happens. The occasional cliche or trope might take you out of the action for a moment, but overall this story is a hell of a ride. I would recommend it highly and wish I could erase my memory of the game so I could discover it again for the first time (along with Mass Effect, Dragon Age, and LiS, for good measure).… Expand

This game is really immersive. I spend 20+ hours for the first playthrough (I replayed some chapters when my characters die as I wanted the best outcome on the first, despite that you still see the unexpected outcome in the end). If you make a movie with this game story, it may be good but not great. However one important difference here is you make your own story in this game. You deeply care all characters and you will feel all sort of emotions while playing this as this is the the story you made- you pull the trigger, you betray your master.
    The story is very engaging and emotional. I particularly like the Kara's story. The branching paths are very deep and the decision you made at the beginning of the game can affect even the last chapter. This is not like telltale kind of 'who should you save then the saved one die in the next episode anyway'. The story deeply changes according to your choice.
    The game play- yes there is no combo but the qte still gives you the sense of thrill and urgency as you deeply care about your character and you don't want them to lose.
    The graphics- top notch, the mo-cap will make you feel wanting when you play another game. The developer gives attention to details and it's unbelievable. Even the articles found in the game are interesting to read.
    Music- one of the best, It matches the scenes you are playing. Kara's music in particular sounds very sad and touching.
    There is no shame to say I cried in some scenes- either because of happiness or sadness. The 79 critic score is totally ridiculous. This at least deserve >90. This is 100 times better than mindless shooter or hack and slash.    … Expand

Games like Heavy Rain, What Remains of Edith Finch, and The Last of Us have in the past had this effect on me. But right now, all I can seem to think of is Detroit: Become Human. During my daily tasks, it keeps popping up in my mind like a cork in water, leaving me to reflect on the choices I have made, and what consequences they had for the storyline. Personally, I was quickly attached to Kara and found myself deeply empathizing with her situation. The attachment felt so strong that I almost feared to play her story at times, afraid to make a disastrous deciding or screw up in a challenge-based encounter. That video game characters have an outstanding potential to be a lot more than just representations of people is splendidly demonstrated in this game. All three characters are so well developed, and I do not find it justified that certain reviewers characterize them as "flat". They are far from flat. Though they sometimes appear stereotypical (this is a pitfall all major game productions cannot seem to avoid), I find them very rich and compelling. And all of them touched me, profoundly.

    A read a negative review that claimed the game did not have a message. I cannot decide whether I find this claim most ridiculous or blatantly unserious. I strongly doubt that this reviewer has even played more than a few hours of the game, and even if that is the case they must have kept both their sight, hearing, and slightest of analytical ability obstructed. The message is clear: history tends to repeat itself. The refusal to acknowledge humanity in androids that have a conscience and cognitive abilities equal to their owners should make everyone with a tiny scrap of historical knowledge think about slavery, apartheid, and minorities' fight for equal rights and conditions (something that is still very much ongoing today). There are explicit references to both the civil rights movement in the United States and the terrifying events of Holocaust throughout the game - and this is not even a spoiler! The trailers show this.

    I love this game, and I will recommend everyone to play it. Games are not just about mastering difficult motoric challenges. If we have learned anything from playing video games that have been produced throughout the last decade, that is the most important take-home point - in my opinion. The games that stick with me long after I have played them have been able to make me invest myself in their interactive world - made me feel apart of its story and environment. This is to me the far strongest kind of immersion. Kara, Conner, Markus, Alice, and many of the other characters that appear in the story were not just representations of people to me, the game made me consider them as far more than that. That is the reason why they are still with me days after I finished the game. I cared for them, and I simply wanted the best outcome for them all. And when it did not turn out that way, it broke a bit of my heart. As I reflect upon this experience it does seem ridiculous, but the heart is far from rational. And thank God for that. The irrational heart is exactly what makes the potential for such video games experiences as Detroit offer possible.

    This is a masterpiece with some flaws that become insignificant in the whole gaming experience. It demonstrates the greatest affordances the video game has as a medium. Truly a must-play of all time.    … Expand

That puts the game above and beyond anything else released in years.

    The photo-realistic graphics and incredible voice/motion performances from experienced actors greatly contribute to the presentation as well, surpassing or matching recent games such as God of War in those departments. Jesse Williams, Valorie Curry and Bryan Dechart played their roles perfectly, breathing life into these robotic characters.

    Others often criticize Quantic Dream games for their plots and gameplay. I will say that the writing in Detroit is much better than Heavy Rain's, but the gameplay in this one takes a backseat to Heavy Rain. With that said, the relentless criticism of Quantic Dreams' game plots and gameplay is dismissive of how far ahead they are from other developers in many other aspects. People should know by now that Quantic Dream is not in the business of making traditional games.

I completed the game twice and there are still so many other ways to go, I can‘t wait to play all the possible scenes (even though I got pretty good endings already, so it might hurt to see how the rest turns out).

    The beauty of this game is the respect and power given to the player. You literally decide the story and outcomes. There are heart touching moments, and shocking moments.

I'm sick of games with no meaning whatsoever, with no interesting story, just with some characters to smash, shoot, quests for a sake of upgrading a character, games that are all alike except graphics, boring sequels of sequels and the plague which is called micro transactions... The list is long. I've almost lost hope I will find an exciting and memorable game to play. The "Detroit: Become Human" has been the first game from Quantic Dream I've played. Strangely enough, I've never heard about David Cage's games before, probably because I'm fan of PC and my family is a fan of XBOX. So, it's was a completely new experience on many levels. I have immediately fallen in love with this game. The branching of the story is a pure genius and something that had never been done before. Yes, story based games aren't new, but the fact remains that the sheer number of different endings is a novelty. It doesn't only mean the gamer gets different ending of a whole story. It means that we get a whole alternative stories from start to finish. It's like fanfiction on steroids with thousands of "ifs". The story itself is gripping and emotional, characters are very likeable, graphics and music are simply stunning, and overall playing is fun as hell. There are exploration, chasing and fleeing parts when we have full control of a character, there are also fights with QTE and of course parts when we need to make tons of decisions. For someone who doesn't like or even hate action games (I call it "just pressing buttons, hoping kill someone"), that's the best game to play. There's a lot of adventure, but the most important thing you need is your brain and wits, not buttons (but that doesn't mean you can't loose a fight if you are slow :D). There's definitely a room to improve, I will never question that. No game is perfect. But at this point of time it can't be better.… Expand

Every decision on D:BH counts, even the little ones can greatly change you story. Replaying the game to take different paths is something you should totally do.

If you don't like a decision you made, you can stick with it... or you can go back and re-do it completely to give you the outcome you desire.

    I have played through Detroit and watched two streamers play through it, all resulting with different outcomes and each three of those outcomes has left me absolutely astonished or heart-broken.

    The music, which has three different composers for the three main characters, is absolutely phenomenal, matching not only the individual situation, but the characters and their personalities completely. The creators of this game and of the musical score really know how to make you feel as if you are in the characters shoes, and that is something that is hard to do but they pulled it off excellently.

    Detroit: Become Human is definitely one of my all time favorite games, and I hope that its creators come out with more amazing stuff in the future, especially if it is based in the same world as Detroit. But even if it isn't, if it makes me feel the way Detroit made me feel, it will definitely be a success.    … Expand

For real - go look them up. Neither of those reasons are justified. If Detroit was fairly reviewed, it would easily be sitting on an 85-90, if not higher.

    This is an interactive movie experience in style of previous Quantic Dream games, and it's their best work yet, with a fantastic and moving story and pretty solid writing. There hasn't been a game in history that has so many different variations and outcomes based on your choices. You can have 10 people play the game at the same time, and each of them would get a different ending and overall outcome. Best part is, each of these outcomes and variations is equally well-made and none of them are shoe-horned into the story just for the sake of consequence.

    I am absolutely blown away by this game and I loved every second of it, and trust me, you're gonna have a great time with it too, even if you're not typically a fan of sci-fi or robots.

    From a technical standpoint the game equally delivers. Sound, voice acting, animations, the lightning and the attention to detail are all absolutely stunning. Especially the animations.

    Detroit: Become Human is a serious contender for 2018's Game of the Year, and is so far my personal pick. Games like God of War are masterpieces in their own, but Detroit: BH aims to accomplish something different and special and it completely nails it.    … Expand

I give it a perfect 10 because of the outcome of the effort exerted in this game. One of the reason why I think it has a unique storyline is because of the worst endings like Connor being replaced by RK900, Kara's and Alice's death in the android camp, and Markus being killed in the midst of revolution which reflects the reality.

    I'm so shocked that by reading some reviews, there are negative comments about this game. I mean, how do you hate this game? It makes you decide, it's intense, and it have parkour.

    Nonetheless, I will try to write this review, because I feel compelled to give the positive feedback that this game deserves, having just come out of what feels like another life (just completed the game).
    I am lucky enough to own a 4K HDR TV and a PS4 Pro, and thus enjoyed the life-like graphics that this game offers, along with the jaw-dropping visuals portraying near-future technological advances.
    The top-notch acting for very distinct and unique characters maintains this sense of realism, along with a genius script that branches and weaves narratives so cleverly as to create an illusion that I am crafting the story as I play.
    And it is this aspect that I wish for this review to emphasise, because it is my hope that many more games of this genre will follow.
    Why? Because even though player actions are almost entirely composed of Quick-Time Events, this game is a prime example of how, when done right, a depth of experience can be achieved that is far beyond the similarly ambitious experiences of big-name games in other genres. Quake 4, Skyrim, GTA V, Fallout 4, Horizon Zero Dawn are examples of such games - that I consider to have fantastic narratives/storyline, but a comparison to this game pales them into insignificance.
    It may not be fair to compare them, since the genres are so different. It is true that games like Skyrim and Fallout 4 do offer non-linear directions / alternative story paths, but without the movie-like aspect, simply cannot achieve the same heights of emotion / engagement.
    The story experience is provided like patches of cloth, with player choices and reactive engagement like the needle of a seamstress, intricately sewing them into something that may not be identifiable until most of the seams are stitched but could be a T-shirt, chinos, or even a balaclava.
    The point is, this game sets a new bar for this genre - I can't even comprehend the level of complexity and expertise required to produce such a smooth flowing, "seamless" (tee hee) story that branches as often, and as dramatically as this one.

    And that is where I just wish to say something about some of the negative reviews here.
    I am not one to insult people, much. But I do find it astounding that people can expose their intellect (or lack thereof) publicly like this.
    The negative reviews mostly bleat the same thing - that the game is too much like a movie and does not have enough of the elements that games of other genres do.
    The only thing this reveals (at least to me) is that the reviewer is not fit to be a reviewer (and consequently blocked so as not to distract me when picking through future reviews). I get that some people will buy games almost blind, in a sort of Russian roulette style, and perhaps this is because they have a lot of money, who knows.
    What I do know, is that sort of person does not belong in the review columns.
    I do not want to hear someone crying about a game in a genre they don't enjoy - that is a waste of my time. Much like it would be for someone to read a review that I might write for a typical Indie game - except that would never happen because I would not be so stupid as to play one and then proceed to write a review about it.
    And I am not implying that people who play Indie games are stupid - not at all, just that my mind baffles at how someone can play a game without sufficient foreknowledge, so as to discover that they don't like it (which in itself is fine), and then write a review about the fact that they don't like it.
    How is a person in this position going to write something even remotely worthy?
    How could I possibly provide valuable insight about, for example, "Papers, Please" with such little experience of a type of game that I frankly do not enjoy?

    And so I will finish with this - the game IS much like a movie, but a beautifully scripted one.
    It will ask some very real questions about technology of the near-future (if you haven't already, check out "Sophia" who received citizenship in Saudi Arabia), and then go beyond, providing an intellectual depth appreciable only by enquiring minds, and an emotional experience that simply cannot be rivalled by games of other genres, and movies can only come close to.    … Expand

    One of the things I didn't likd about Heavy Rain was the less than stellar voice acting. Quantic Dream obviously corrected that problem with Detroit Become Human, hiring some of the biggest names out there. This is a beautiful game, in both storyline and graphics.

    This is one of the most accomplished video games ever created. Sure the genre/gameplay might not be for everyone but I can't understand why people can't see beyond that. I am a gamer can that appreciate any genre provided I'm given a high quality game. This one definately oozes of quality.

    El juego es muy atrapante, te hace reflexionar mucho, es un juego que puedes jugar en familia (por las desiones a tomar) y vez como va la historia y te encariñas con los personajes y quieres saber que pasa y ademas fe contar con varios finales, el juego es muy disfrutable y muy rejugable. Simplemente me encantó.

    One of the best game of this generation, I'm a huge Quantic Dream fan and this game just delivered way more than what I expected, if you are liking actual decision makings and having a user controlled story with QTEs than this is the best game what is possible made, 10/10 for me, so many outcomes, scenes and ending, it's impossible to see all of them, that's why it makes it so special.One of the best game of this generation, I'm a huge Quantic Dream fan and this game just delivered way more than what I expected, if you are liking actual decision makings and having a user controlled story with QTEs than this is the best game what is possible made, 10/10 for me, so many outcomes, scenes and ending, it's impossible to see all of them, that's why it makes it so special.

    This was possibly the most emotionally invested I have ever been in the lives and story of a video game. Decisions are difficult to make (choices live in the gray area) and every choice you make has weight and meaning. I cannot recommend a more moving game which features strong topics about segregation, and equal rights, with a look into a possible forseeable future. BUY THIS GAME!

    Wow what an experience I've not cried for a video game like this in ages. Ill put this on my top 3 games of this generation. The story was so moving and I can't stop thinking about it. I loved all the characters so much. It had great philosophy, themes and morals.

    I'll rate this game at least between 9-9.5.

    Secondly, that metascore of 78 is absolute **** I think we should all be looking at the userscore which is 8.7 which is far more accurate. This game was shat on by critics because it didn't apparently follow their politics and follow their agendas. Just look at the amount of bs articles on it by Polygon and Kotaku. I've also heard some people don't like David Cage, but thats no reason to **** on game and be biased needlessly.

    If What Remains of Edith Finch got 87 on metacritic. Then this game at LEAST deserves that score as well. I loved What Remains of Edith Finch, but I think this was far better.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Detroit: Become Human is an interactive adventure game that revolves around three androids. The androids were built to help with everyday life for humans. Some androids develop emotions and decide to rebel against their programming. These androids are known as deviants. The three androids the story revolves around are Kara, Connor, and Markus. Kara, who escapes her owner in order to protect a little girl and explore her newfound deviancy, Connor, who was created to hunt down deviants, and Markus, who once becoming a deviant, decides that his people need to be freed from servitude to the humans. During the game your choices you make for each of the androids will have lasting effects on the remainder of the game. You could end the game with one or all three dead or you could end the game with all or one of them alive. The choice will be yours to make.

    The gameplay has significantly improved in this title compared to their previous entries. In this game you will performing QTEs and sometimes free running. Depending on the difficulty you chose at the beginning you will either be using the face buttons most of the time or you will be having a combination of face buttons, analog stick movements, and shoulder buttons. You will press L2 in order to highlight the surrounding areas and see what your current objective is. While doing this, any item of interest will be marked with a yellow marker above it. You don’t necessarily have to go to every yellow marker, as not each one is dependent on the progress of the game. After each level you will see a flowchart that shows the choices you made and will show you alternate paths that scene could have taken. This will allow for tons of replay value and coming up with multiple endings. This format is a significant improvement over their most recent entries Beyond: Two Souls and Heavy Rain. During the game you will switch control of each of the three main androids depending on your choices. This will happen after you reach the end of the scenario played and see your flowchart choices. Your next scenario could be with the same android or one of the other two. Most generally you will control a different android after each scenario. Depending on your choices, there could be scenes later that feature all three androids in the same scenario. If this happens there will moments in that scenario where you will toggle back and forth on which android you are in control of. The mechanic for this feels flawless and smooth. It is done in such a way that never really breaks immersion and allows for a focused run through the entire game.

    As most anyone can clearly see the graphics are out of this world. With some amazing games coming out as of late that have some pretty real like graphics, Detroit doubles that every chance it can get. Of course these interactive adventure games are very linear and that allows the developer to really push the graphics to another level. The amount of detail in each character and setting can really make you question if you are playing an actual movie or if this is really just a game. It’s unreal at the level of detail Quantic Dream was able to produce on such a grand scale. Especially knowing the power limitations of the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 4 Pro, it truly is amazing to see just what they were able to pull off. This is truly the most remarkable game to date graphics wise. There is no comparison here, Detroit has set the bar in terms of graphic fidelity from the interactive main menu all the way through to the very end of the game.

    From the music playing within the game to the sounds of all the surrounding areas, Quantic Dream really nailed the atmosphere of a bustling city to one that is under siege. The sounds throughout the game fit to each scenario perfectly. They add to the immersion within the game and really add to the feeling that you are playing a movie not a game. The soundtrack they chose fit each character the songs were related to immensely. From the classical to the hard rock it definitely made you feel that you were right there in the scene and with the characters themselves.

    In short, this game is remarkable in every way. It has its downfalls as well but they are easily overlooked for the sheer enjoyment that Detroit: Become Human is. Not to mention, knowing just how many times you can play through this game and come up with something different and equally enjoyable. This game has it all. If you are any type of fan of the interactive genre then this game is definitely for you. Not sure this game will sway newcomers to the genre but will definitely grab anyone that is remotely interested in it. Another must-have title in a long line of must have titles PlayStation has delivered this gen.    … Expand

    Detroit: Become Human delivers a story with a ton of possible choices, and a lot of questions for a player to bear afterward. If you like it when games make you think about them after you play them, this is the game for you. Stunning visuals and music score, make you forget about some weaker points of the game. But all in all, it is an enjoyable experience you should not miss.

    Detroit: Become Human looks and sounds great, and includes key player choices throughout, though it could have benefited greatly from a tighter script. While it’s commendable that Quantic Dream tried to cover hot-button issues in a big-budget video game, it works better when focused on the personal character moments than the bigger themes that don’t dig deep enough to make a meaningful impact.

    Although the narrative is fairly linear, there are enough branching paths over the course of the game to make it feel like your actions matter. That allows Detroit to still be fun even on multiple playthroughs – and for an interactive movie, that’s a rare praise. [Issue#231, p.68]
