Though the story is self-contained
Over a dozen hours per story run
The editors didn't like
Flawed premise
Dopey script
Counterintuitive controls
Total failure to meaningfully engage with the real-world issues it invokes
Developer
Its message is poorly delivered
Story is muddled
Silly dialogue is quite common
Poor M/KB controls
Too passive for some
Hard to 100%
Flowcharts constantly remind you of the game you're playing and cheapen your involvement
Blatant and shallow appropriation of real-life events stick out like a sore thumb
Some secondary characters exhibit an obvious lack of detail
The illusion of choice
Realistic depictions of violence and mental anguish might not sit well with the audience
Having to juggle 'interact' and 'rotate camera' on the same analog stick
Cringy controls on character movement
Small bit of mip-mapping and the occasional framerate hitch
But not impactful for either
Dialogue choices are occasionally counter intuitive

Detroit: Become Human is a poignantly pulpy interactive sci-fi drama where your choices can impact events to a greater and more satisfying degree than in most games of this type. Though I wish its story had been handled with a softer touch, especially con...

Abstract: With the rise of advanced artificial intelligence, machine learning, chatbots, digital personal assistants, self-driving vehicles and lifelike robotic entities, a game such as Detroit: Become Human could not have come at a better time. Humans are becoming...

Abstract: As we careen toward human-like artificial intelligence in real life, popular fiction is stoking our fears. I was prepared to dismiss Quantic Dream ‘s Detroit: Become Human as one more weak entry in this genre of the robots are taking over. But I wound up...
Abstract: As a developer, Quantic Dream is known for being controversial and polarizing. This is due to allegations being applied to its leaders, like David Cage. Sometimes, this bleeds over into their games, with Heavy Rain criticized for its sexism and Beyond: Tw...
