    Too much underestimated meta score. Graphics is true next-gen. Story is not depth for real-life issue ,but really impressive and immersive.

    Do not listen to the negative reviews. This game is fantastic, and very entertaining. Even people who don't play/enjoy video games will like this cinematic and dramatic experience! Multiple endings, hundreds of difficult choices, and characters you get very emotionally attached to! The replay value of this game is great. You can play this a solid 3 or 4 times before things seem repetitive.Do not listen to the negative reviews. This game is fantastic, and very entertaining.

    Amazing game! If you're a fan of previous games made by David Cage you'll love Detroit. Don't think we'll see a better story game this year and the amount of choices and different paths is impressive. Visuals are the best i've seen across all platforms including PC, the voice acting is superb and is a game that triggers lots of emotions.

It is easily one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had and is probably the greatest choice based game ever made. It was intense. I felt genuine fear, sadness, joy, cried during a few parts. I empathized with all the characters even the side characters whom I often put myself in danger to save, they mattered that much to me. I made some mistakes, and living with the impacts of my decisions really made me question myself afterwards. I can't wait to play this a few more times to redo things from my play through that didn't go so well.… Expand

Each section of the game has so many possible outcomes, it's impossible not to come back for another play-through again and again to experience the entire story that Detroit has to offer.

    This game heavily focuses on the use of choice based conversations that will heavily sway the outcome of each conversation ultimately leading to multiple different outcomes not seen on this scale before. If you like or don't mind quick-time events (maybe because you're actually good at them) then you will love Detroit. There is nothing stopping you from playing one of the best story driven experiences of the year.

    Fotrnite and PUBG, Call of Duty and Rainbow Six: Siege, Battlefront 2 and Battlefield 1... Are you crying out for great single player, narrative games that require your undivided attention? Then look no further, Detroit: Become Human will captivate you, engage you and make you think about every choice before making it.    … Expand

    I honestly am not a fan of David Cage or his past works. Beyond and Heavy Rain were not that great, and very forgettable (more in Beyond's case). However, Detroit is really something else and Cage finally got it right this time.

    The writing, while a bit slow at parts, is really well done and consistent. The QTE sequences actually provide a challenge in experienced mode. The characters are extremely likable and the performances by their actors are phenomenal. It doesn't have a lot of game play mechanics, but it truly is great if you like Telltale style games. And for once, there is no illusion of choice. There were minor choices I had made that literally came back to bite me in the ass later. It has so many branching paths and lives up to the "actions have consequences" trope.

    Don't listen to anyone bashing this game for being an "interactive movie". Detroit is a great game that will provide you hours upon hours of replay value, and my game of the year.    … Expand

Detroit exceeds both Heavy Rain and Beyond Two Souls in all aspects, which is quite the achievement. Before I delve into its greatness, a slight con was that the game could have been longer (clocking only 10-12 hours), however its length still fit perfectly with the story and its replay-ability makes up for it, as I will discuss further.

    Just finished my 1st play-through and I have not had a game linger in my mind so heavily, tempting me to go through another play-through to fulfill the "if only I did this" possibility as a way both to fulfill my curiosity and atone for my "mistakes", and I am not one for replaying games. While on the subject, the game has true replay-ability, with every choice in the game having legitimate short-term and long-term consequences, leaving you feeling relieved, regretful, shocked, and or devastated by the actions you choose and its outcomes, and seeing it all play out in a final ending, whichever one it may turn out to be, is both emotionally moving and thrilling.

    The soundtrack is probably one of the greatest I have heard in any entertainment platform, including video games and shows/movies. The voice-acting and graphics are amazing, the story is simple yet complex and elicits every human emotion you can ponder up, and with an epic finale(s) to keep you up at night.

    Overall, if you want to experience a journey that will test your convictions, play with your emotions, and leave you pondering your existence and the future of this world, I highly recommend purchasing this game.    … 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]
