    Masterpiece - I'm not afraid to use that word in this case. Because it's interactive experience much deeper than "just a game". It touches important topics about humanity and our future that are much deeper than it can be seen on the surface as "game about androids". Long essay could be easily written just about the story and important issues that it contains so I skip this part. All I canMasterpiece - I'm not afraid to use that word in this case. Because it's interactive experience much deeper than "just a game". It touches important topics about humanity and our future that are much deeper than it can be seen on the surface as "game about androids". Long essay could be easily written just about the story and important issues that it contains so I skip this part. All I can say is that it's very emotional story that touched me deeply. Not often I feel so engaged in the events and fate of protagonist because not many games can develop great story. I played it on 'experienced' level even if I'm new to PS4 controller and I need more time that game allowed me to tap right button but this way it was more challenging and more emotional. Of course, I failed almost completely. Another plus for a game because failing is winning here: you can learn a lesson and try again to success by trying new pathways - game is not boring and allow for many game-plays where you can see events previously not discovered.
    Music is awesome. Three composers matched to character of protagonists plus bonus tracks. It's so nice to hear artists from Detroit like father of Techno Juan Atkins.
    My personal favorite is Kara, her story and soundtrack. I felt in my hands is life of real person not character in the game. Other two stories and characters are inferior. No not at all. All of them are equally great. It's just personal preference to like one character above another.
    Graphics is also really good - nothing that I could complain about, it keeps today's highest standards. Face expressions are great. They doesn't break 4th wall - another achievement.
    Main menu android assistant is also great idea. I'll miss her :)
    It's easy for me to give highest score because it seems that authors of the game share the same view about the world and our civilization/society as me so I felt at home.
    I hope that more games will have such engaging stories and rich characters and I hope that Quantic Dream will bring new awesome game soon.    … Expand

    I were not expect a lot from this game, i even can say that hype from Detroit ade me not really like it even before I started playing. But when i just have played it first - i cant stop till the game ends.
    The gaming process, the graphic, characters - all this was great. The story was not so gorgeus, but rather good too.
    And the most wonderful part of it - number of plot branches. It is    I were not expect a lot from this game, i even can say that hype from Detroit ade me not really like it even before I started playing. But when i just have played it first - i cant stop till the game ends.

    If you got an opportunity to play this game with someone else - just try, It is much-much better, when you can create a real confrontation between the main characters within the game.    … Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Один немногих эксклюзивов, ради которого действительно необходимо брать PS4. Огромное разветвление сюжетный линий, которые поражают своей вариативностью. Что же по сюжету, он отличен, да нам преподносят немного не ту проблему, которую многим хотелось бы видеть, но это все равно не делает игру на столько хуже, на сколько ее многие засрали. Даже уже в конце пройденной игры нам предоставляют возможность пройти опрос : сколько раз или вообще возникли ли у нас сопереживания героям, и скажу, безусловно : да! Однако ни в коем случае не андроидам, а людям. Было печально за Хэнка, старика Карла, Алису (пока не раскрылось то, что она анжроид), роботы же в этой игре, меня совсем не тронули. На протяжении всей игры мне принципиально не нравился Маркус, и совершенно противоположное мнение о Конноре, т.к. именно он и должен был погасить всю эту андроидскую заваруху.
    Что по геймплею, тут все неоднозначно, сам жанр игры не предоставляет каких-либо больших возможностей, кроме как достаточно нервных QTE.
    Саундтрэк. Ох, как же разбегались мои мурашки по телу, когда увидели впервые интро Детроида, когда Кэра разглядывает рахруху и одновременно процветающую цивилизацию через окно машины под идеально подобранную музыку. Это касается не только интро, а и всех событий вообще - музыка подобрана наилучшим образом 10/10
    Графика тут меня совсем не впечатлила, приемлемо, хорошо подобран свет, нет никаких вырвиглаз текстур, все в порадке. Однако, однако, в первой миссии за Маркуса, гуляя по городу, наблюдается не малый просев фпс, и наблюдался он не единожды.
    Подводя итоги, могу заявить, что ни пожалел о деньгах, а главное о времени, потративших на Детроит. Моя конечная оценка 9, т.к. выше описанная проблема андроидов была поднята, как я считаю, не так как хотелось бы.    … Expand

The story and the graphics are just perfect. We play together and sit every evening tied up and overwhelmed in front of the Tv.
    Of course you are bound to processes here and it's not an open world game, but that's not what it's supposed to be, it's a thrilling cinematic story to take part in. Many thanks for the great piece of art !    … Expand

    The game has stunning graphics and visual appeal.
    The story and the choices you make are so dynamic that you'll be caught off guard a lot of times.
    A must play if you like Sony first party games and any narrative driven games.

Marcus, who inspired all androids and was not afraid to engage in battle with people. Connor... just a cute character (Bryan Dechart Is Awesome). I fell in love with his image instantly. As soon as I saw the trailer on E3, I realized that Connor is my favorite character. The visual component of the game at altitude. When I played, I did not distinguish reality from the game ....

There's constant stuttering when the game switches from gameplay to cutscenes and sometimes the game will crash on ps4 (error code CE-34878-0).

    Graphics are beautiful, one of the best to date. Main characters and their back-stories are interesting, all the side characters ale well done too.
    The plot is really good - we have straight strong motivations, places where we want to end up, and we have trouble along the way. It's not a kind of story with crazy plot-twists etc. It's an emotional story about finding identity and freedom. I can recommend it to anyone who likes this kind of topics.    … Expand

    If you’re looking for a game that matches up to ‘Heavy Rain’ or ‘Until Dawn’.. and then surpasses all expectations in terms of butterfly effect and game choices and endings, this is the game for you. The plot has moments where it falls short, and the slavery/holocaust analogies are a little in your face, but the general concept and content is excellent.

    The characters are well thought out: Connor, Markus and some of the NPCs stealing the show. Lara’s character and plot is a little irritating on the second play through (and beyond), but that is simply because she has less dimensions than the two male leads. It doesn’t help that her plot is not intrinsic to the overarching story, where Markus and Connor’s are. She carries the ‘civilian’ experience of a civil war, so while her journey is emotional, it’s not for everyone. I found her story to bring the enjoyment of the game down. For what it’s worth, I found Connor and Markus’ scenes much more enjoyable, with an emotive experience, and Connor’s plot definitely trumps the whole experience. All in, an excellent game. I’m on my fifth play through and I still have a good 30-40% of gameplay still left to view.    … Expand

The best feature of this game of course is the fact that your actions have consequences, and I played through the game a good 6 times to try out different paths and outcomes and wasn't disappointed... it was the best game of the year 2018 for me!

    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]
