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

Abstract: Detroit: Become Human wants so badly to be an interactive Hollywood blockbuster, but its amazing visuals and cinematic presentation can't make up for some really lame writing, weird performances and an overall lack of grace. In spite of all that, though...
"An average narrative-adventure game that sags under the weight of its own widescreen ambitions."...

Sensational graphics, An intriguing storyline about the rise of artificial intelligence, Atmospheric, capturing the feelings of the androids as they evolve, Some decent gameplay mechanics around crime investigation levels,
Not gamey enough, too many ‘press this button now' instructional bits, Reduced replayability interest thanks to the addition of branching story options at the end of each level, David Cage's storytelling remains very hit and miss, and the misses are
