    Detroit: Become Human is the story of a harrowing journey between androids to find equality and acceptance in the city of Detroit. Albeit plagued with things some may find distressing (gore, violence, child abuse, and sexual innuendos), none of these are used without reason (save for the strip club scene... seriously, Cage, you could have put that anywhere else), and some take up less thanDetroit: Become Human is the story of a harrowing journey between androids to find equality and acceptance in the city of Detroit.

In short, Detroit is a wonderful, emotional adventure worth taking. Just make your choices carefully, go in as blind as you can, and prepare to feel.… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Personaly i love Beyond : two souls , and when i buy this game i was thinking that David Cage can´t do a better it was imbossible. I was totally wrong. Its a HUGE better with an excellent history a lot of different finals and also mega-realistic graphics that are like the **** real life. When you play with Kara and Alice it doesnt act like and normal NPC is like a real person the CPU is so good . And a lot of things in the history that when you play the game another time is completly different is spectacular. The difference between be peaceful or agressive. If you are a divergent or a robot with Connor. And the final is A M A Z I N G. You need to play this game , seriously.… Expand

    So after playing Detroit Become Human all the way through for the fourth time I can say that this game is probably one of the best worst written story driven RPG's of all time. Considering that I am writing this review almost one year after the game's initial release, I hope that readers acknowledge that I have a great deal of affection and love for Detroit Become Human. The idea aboutSo after playing Detroit Become Human all the way through for the fourth time I can say that this game is probably one of the best worst written story driven RPG's of all time. Considering that I am writing this review almost one year after the game's initial release, I hope that readers acknowledge that I have a great deal of affection and love for Detroit Become Human. The idea about androids developing free will and rising up against humanity for me is awesome. With Kara and Connor (my favourite) storylines, you get to explore moral concepts like what does it mean to be a living being or can an android build real relationships with humans. The game grants you the flexibility to make your own moral choices about these issues which I very much appreciated.

    What I hate about this game is everything that follows;
    The game never addresses the legitimate concerns of Androids developing free will and attacking their creators. In almost every encounter with a deviant, you are told how they were 'forced' to murder someone with their justification ranging from acceptable to **** ridiculous. (In my first initial play-through, my Markus ends up killing a bunch of people yet somehow I still managed to have an indifferent public opinion on Androids). This gets even worse when characters you begin to care about stop acting reasonable just so that the plot can progress. (I kill the cops in my play-through with Markus and Hank still wants to stop Connor from killing him because he "was wrong about deviants"). Androids are smarter than humans, they are more powerful, more efficient, etc. These concerns never get addressed in any storyline and this drives me insane. Also, sometimes the games response to my actions do not make sense. There is one point in the story where you are Connor and you're hunting down two deviant strippers. The couple is trying to escape (and also arguably trying to kill you and Hank). The moment you gain the upper hand and take the option to kill them, you get chastised for it by Hank as if they weren't trying to drive a screwdriver into your head. There are choices in this game that are very much situational and if you step out of line from a clear consistent pattern of behaviour when making decisions, your story and the characters in them will stop making sense.

    Finally, Markus's story is just poorly written. His reason for becoming deviant is terrible (hey, this guy keeps pushing, thats not okay...rebel against humans, slavery is bad!) And when he arrives at the deviant hideout, he automatically becomes their leader. I guess maybe because he just looks like your typical protagonist. You can murder a large number of humans in his storyline and still have people love you so long as if you continue to make the pacifist decisions in regards to everything else.

    So, in the end I enjoyed Detroit Become Human. There are gaps of logical with everyone's storyline, (Kara the least, Markus the most) but all are still serviceable and can keep you entertained. I wish this game offered more in terms of quality in story writing but what you get is good enough to get you through until the end.    … Expand

    I really enjoy the story and characters much more then I already highly expected! The voice acting and motion capture were some of the best I have ever seen in a game.

I felt every emotions the actors brought to the game. It was extremely captivating! Every decisions you make has incredible consequences that will sometimes leave you speechless!
    The way this game was developed, with three stories intertwined together to form a comprehensive narrative, is remarkable. The story in itself is nothing new, but your interaction with it makes it epic!
    I played the entire game a second time and make some different choices. That is when something amazing happened: the story changed radically! Entire scenes and narratives were gone and new ones took shape! I felt like I was playing a different game. I could not believe what I was experiencing!
    Granted, the theme of the game and its type of gameplay is my cup-of-tea, so I was predisposed to like it, but it also means I expected a lot from it. However, what I got was beyond my wildest expectations! I cannot recommend it highly enough. If you like story-driven games where every decisions are meaningful, you’ve got to play Detroit!    … Expand

    A really good game! I admit that is not the kind of game I prefer, but this is really special!! Story,gameplay,graphics.... all is perfect. The characters are strong, and playing the game, you start to love them! I've just finished the story for the first time, and I think, I'll restart it in few days.

    En cuanto a la duración estamos entre 11 y 12 horas de juego ( yendo a por la historia sin repetir nuevas posibilidades ), corto a mi parecer, pero la experiencia de juego es muy emocionante, mas que un juego parece una novela gráfica. La trama se desarrolla alrededor de tres personajes, Kara, Connor y Markus, los tres son androides los cuales buscarán su lugar en el mundo con la visión de cada personaje. La peculiaridad del título es que con cada protagonista tendremos múltiples posibilidades para elegir, dándote a escoger diferentes opciones con sus respectivas conclusiones, todas diferentes. Contiene una buena banda sonora. Hay poco gameplay ya que en el 80% son cinemáticas, aún así es toda una experiencia. Buenos personajes, con mucho carisma, buena actuación de los tres protagonistas. Detroit un titulo que me ha gustado mucho, por eso le pongo el 9 sobre 10 ( comparándolo con juegos de su plataforma, PS4 ). Mi vigésima crítica u/o review.    … Expand

Şöyle söyleyeyim; severek oynadığım, oynamasam bile Call of Duty gibi her sene çıktığında alıp kütüphanemde tuttuğum oyunların o seneki oyunu fütüristik olduğunda o oyunu almam mümkün olamıyor*. Bunun nedenini hiç bir zaman anlayamayacak olsam da kendimce bir kaç tahminim var tabii. Bunlardan ilki 2001: A Space Odyssey bu konuya girmeyeceğim, ikincisi ise Back to the Future. Hala daha 21 Ekim 2015'te nasıl uçan arabalar olmaz deyip dizlerimi dövüyorum. Bu yüzden fütüristik oyunlar bana hiç inandırıcı gelmiyor. Çok üzgünüm ama evet, bu konuda çok ön yargılıyım. Cyberpunk, umarım bu ön yargımı tamamen parçalar.
    Oyunla alakalı önce oyunu Sony'nin yaptığını öğrendim. Bu bir çok açıdan çok önemli bir husus. Uzatmama gerek yok aslında, bir oyunun yayımcısı olarak "Sony Interactive Entertainment" yazıyorsa o oyun sorgusuz alınır. Üstelik PS4'e özel çıkmış. Peh, sen kimsiniz pardon?
    Daha sonra oyunun trailer'ına denk geldim. Bu da çok önemliydi benim için çünkü bir oyuna ön yargılıysam mümkün değil onun trailer'ını izliyeyim.
    Trailer aktıkça ben de aktım. Oyun hikaye tabanlı bir oyundu. Mesleğimden ötürü senaryolu, hikayeli işlere zaafım var, üstelik hikayesi de güzel duruy...(Bölmez misiniz, oyun oynuyorum) ehem ehem
    Bu kadar kapsamlı başka hikaye tabanlı oyun var mı bilmiyorum ama oynadığım en iyi hikaye tabanlı oyundu. 2038 yılında başladığınız bir oyun ve robotsunuz. Üstelik bulunduğunuz dünya öyle rastgele oluşmamış. Aslında beni en çok etkileyen husus da buydu. Etrafta bulduğunuz dergiler, konuşmalar, gördüğünüz haberler, sizin o güne nasıl geldiğiniz ve gelecekte sizi nelerin bekleyebileceği ile alakalı yüzlerce kuramla doluydu ve bu kuramların neredeyse hiç birinin altı boş değildi. Çoğu zaman sizi gelecekle alakalı bir simülasyonun içindeymişsiniz gibi hissettirmesi de cabası.
    Oyunun hikaye kısmı da beni benden alan kısımlardandı. Sadece senaryonun hoşluğu değil sizi etkileyen, asıl mest olduğum kısım hikayenin örgüsü. Oyunun henüz daha başında, seçtiğiniz veya seçmediğiniz ufacıcık bir durum, oyunun sonunda karşınıza çıkabiliyor ve böyle yüzlerce farklı senaryoyla karşı karşıya kalacağınız durumlar gerçekleşebiliyor. Yani kısaca oyunu oynayan herkes aslında farklı oyunlar oynadılar yalnızca bunun farkında değiller.
    Oyunda beğendiğim bir başka nokta ise, sizi gelecekte olma duygusundan bir an bile koparmaması. Öyle ki oyunun giriş ekranında bile bizi yapay zekalı bir robot karşılıyor ki kendisi gibi robotlarla oyun içerisinde de karşılaşıyoruz. Yani sürekli bir turing testindesiniz ama burada testi siz değil de sanki robotlar yapıyor gibi.
    Oyunun eksi tarafı ise fazla kısa olması. Oyuna oturduktan sonra size keyifle oynayabileceğiniz saatler vadetse de oyun başındaki deneyiminizin çok daha fazlasını hakettiğini hemen hissedeceksiniz. Hatta oyunu bitirdikten sonra sizi karşılayan Chloe isimli robotunuzun gitmek istediğinde, ağzınız peki diyecek ama gözleriniz kal der gibi bakacak. Yine de bu durum çok kabul edilebilir çünkü oynadığınızın yanı sıra oynamadığınız onlarca belki de yüzlerce sahnenin animasyonlarını düşününce ister istemez hak veriyorsunuz. Tomris Giritlioğlu katıldığım bir söyleşisinde "eğer iyi bir hikayeniz varsa, iyi bir film çekebilirsiniz" demişti. Görüyorum ki Quantic Dream'in iyi bir hikayesi var. Diğer işlerini heyecanla bekliyor olacağım.    … 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

    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.

    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]
