    The story is very memorable and engaging, forcing the player to question and make decisions in difficult situations and whether you are making the right decision. The visuals and music were also great. I connected more with Kara and Markus' story as I felt Connor's was too focused on Hank.

It is also interesting that the story shines a light on what AI could evolve to in the future, but what history has shown about humans and those who are different being seen as a threat. For me, this is a 10/10, and there is no other game that engages the player at this level. Will definitelty replay to see a different ending.… Expand

    The only negatives are some of the smaller things that are just... David Cage Specialties at this point. There is some of the eye-rolling cheese you'd expect from him, but thankfully it's toned way down.    … Expand

    Для меня игра не приблизилась к уровню Heavy Rain. Сюжетная линия за Маркуса не зацепила вообще, некоторые миссии хотелось скипнуть. Так же раздражают и клише заезженные.

    故事背景是人与未来的人工智能共生的环境，关于这些问题的讨论这几年越来越多，alphago击败李世石，西部世界的大火，都让公众越来越多的发掘AI的发展之快。底特律变人是能让人在游玩过程中常常思考的游戏，不仅思考做出的每一次选择，而且思考游戏的本质与社会的联系。我们真的能与AI和谐相处吗？AI是否会代替人类？AI在游戏里的地位让我想到了以前黑人在美国的地位，以及后来同样发生的革命。
    游戏里关键分支的选择能够影响故事的发展，这样就使人非常纠结，因为人生是无法重来的，还好我们只是在游戏里，2刷3刷底特律是肯定的。 动作场景需要玩家在非常短时间做出相应的指令，想要全部按对还挺难，不过游戏也没有game over，只会产生不同的结局罢了。    我心目中的满分作品，人工智能，剧情向，并且将ps4手柄操作和震动发挥到极致。

    The game met my expectations. It correctly touches on the subject of androids as members of society. It puts emotional pressure on the player for his decisions. The game has a wide base of solutions, options and endings. It does not have an open world, but the content that the creators leave us in specific locations is extremely sufficient. I recommend, it's worth it.

I tend to focus on multiplayer and shooter games mostly but remembered distant memories of the positive response it got when first released. I saw it was on discount on Epic Games Launcher and decided to use my £10 Christmas Coupon on it. It ended up being a brilliant deal after picking it up for only £10 and I can tell you I would pay double the actual price for a game like this. I did experience consistent crashing when trying to launch it from the Epic Games Launcher but this issue was easily overcome by launching the game through the games folder and running as administrator.

    The decisions made in the game from start to finish tweak the path of the story in small amounts and the big decisions are easily recognisable so you can get a good ending relatively easy. The games graphics are breath-taking and are incredibly realistic when playing on ultra (most players with modern computers will be able to easily run ultra). I really made some stupid decisions in the first of the playthroughs I have done and was able to easily go back into the flowchart feature in the main menu and change any decision I made by just selecting the chapter and then the checkpoint. The game advises you to complete the game once before going back in the flowcharts so you don't break the immersion and I absolutely agree, even though I made some poor decisions I stuck with it till the end and I don't regret it.

    To conclude, this game is a MUST HAVE if you are into story games. The story is diverse and incredibly grasping to the player with you taking responsibility for the actions of the characters you play. I found myself on the edge of my seat when being pressured to make a risky decision under a specific time limit. Besides the minor inconvenience of my Epic Games Launcher being faulty I had 0 issues with the game. Besides, if you are sceptical you could always try the free demo.    … Expand

    The option to explore is great and each player has a unique story.

    Overall VERY good video game. Possibly the most "movie" like video game I've ever played. Story is phenomenal. Don't go into thinking you're going to be playing some high action shooter and you'll probably love it. Highly recommend.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Its taken me a while to get round to this game as its been part of my backlog for 2 plus years now but as with many other games, lockdown has allowed me to finally play through it.

    This is an odd game to review due to the nature of the 'chose your own adventure' storytelling but I will try my best! During my playthrough I went in entirely blind and did not go back on any choices made until I saw the credits role for the first time. This is how the game suggests you should play and I would definitely have to agree. It does a great job at making you care for the characters and is constantly reminding you that every choice you make is extremely important. As is the case with most games that follow this infrastructure many endings can leave you feeling unsatisfied however if you find yourself actively wanting to go back and re-attempt areas in order to achieve a better outcome for the characters. If this happens to you as it did me it will become abundantly clear that the game has made you attached to these characters. You actually care what happens to them and want a happy ending for them all though I still would have liked it if some of the 'bad' endings felt more fulfilling.

    The game follows 3 main characters, Markus, Connor and Kara. Throughout the game you follow them one at a time in a chapter style format. I was surprised as to how long it took for any of the characters to interact with each other though it did mean that adequate time was provided to build up these characters backstories and personalities before throwing them into a sort of crossover event. This meant that when they finally did meet it felt more rewarding. Think Avengers meeting Guardians of the Galaxy compared to Rey meeting Po in The Last Jedi. The first has a brilliant 'feel good' affect on the audience as these characters have been followed individually beforehand through several movies and it feels like less of an afterthought and more of a planned meeting. The second feels like purely an afterthought. Like the director suddenly realised at the last minute that these characters hadn't me yet. Personally for me Detroit falls close to Marvel's level of satisfaction.

    While there are over 80+ ways the story can go it is still obvious that the story will, for the most part, follow the same structure assuming you don't allow characters to die. Following these stories was quiet the emotional roller-coaster and my opinions on each of the characters journeys reflected this as I was constantly changing which one I was most invested in. At the beginning of my playthrough Kara's story had me hooked the most however, by the end of the game I found her story overall to be the weakest of the 3. One major development of her story was when the little girl Alice was revealed to be an android. Personally I wasn't a fan of this 'revelation' as I felt it was unnecessary and created plot holes that were never answered and that didn't have to exist in the first place. Connors story on the other hand started slow however ended up being my favourite out of the three weather I chose to keep him deviant or not. I also enjoyed the larger connection of his and Markus' stories when compared to Kara. It was another reason as to why I felt her story began to lose steam during the last third of the game as it really had no where else to go and surprisingly has a more distant role in the overall story. Towards the end it felt more 'sidequesty' and as a result I thought it dragged on.

    Its worth noting a gameplay element that I can't ignore as it got on my nerves a number of times despite how trivial it may seem. The scanning feature when exploring an area that highlights points of interest and brings up the objective menus is horribly implemented as the game grinds to a stop and everything freezes whenever it is opened. This really started to get on my nerves during my 20 hour playthrough as it slowed down a game that's already relatively slow in the gameplay department due to the movement speed of all three characters. It baffles me how this stayed in the game as to me there is no logical explanation for this to happen and if anything just demotivates you to explore the environments for clues that can unlock completely new story lines.

    I wanted to quickly touch on the writing. In a game with this many possible paths to take I would expect some to be better written and others to have a noticeable dip in quality however, with all the routes I experienced I never found one to be worse than another. When it came to the writing of the characters they stayed consistent throughout and because of this the experience felt a lot more authentic.

    Overall I really enjoyed my time with Detroit: Become Human and the ideas it presents within its 3 interlinked stories. It may be a pre-existing way of story telling however I would say Detroit nails the execution and deserves more recognition as one of the PS4's stand out titles    … Expand

    The story is phenomenal in this game, I really started caring for the characters and I'm glad I was able to get the best ending. I would recommend multiple playthroughs.
    The gameplay and mechanics are good too, there are fixed camera angles and not much interesting things to interact with but it is necessary for this genre and type of game.
    Overall, very good.

    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]
