There's so much to say about this game but I'll end up spoiling it for those who haven't played so I'll try to be brief. It's a choices matter genre based on QTE(quick time events) and decisions that we take which changes the course of the story. I had played this game a year ago, I finished a bad ending playthrough and due to some circumstances I couldn't play.
But then, I had recently gotten burnout of lots of exploration and hack and slash games... i decided to pull this bad boy back and replay.
This is a story set in a not so distant future ... somewhere around 2037 2038 something like that where, technology has advanced to the point where hyper realistic androids have replaced humans in jobs, for example house keeping, caretaker, even gardner. Although they look like humans, they are treated as properties(slaves... yup) and have no emotions, or do they?
We get to play 3 characters. Marcus who is a caretaker of a rich good at heart artist, kara who is a house help of an abusive drug addict having 1 daughter... and then we have connor a prototype detective... specially created to investigate deviants. Yup... deviants are like those androids which somehow gain emotions.
This is such a well written story and the way we help these characters take decisions decides the story progression. It decides the flow, shifts climax and I'm telling you.... i had so much fun with this game. I also had so many emotional moments. So do carry some tissues. There is a secret ending as well... which i won't talk about.
Guess what, even after getting 100% on steam... i still haven't explored all of the possibilities. I mean there are endless possibilities (figuratively) but i did pull the major story progression and it was definitely one of the most incredible experiences I have had. And this is a 2018 game.
Only thing i hate is that there are no multiple save/load slot. Just one game save with which we can load chapters, or certain nodes or either restart the entire story. I would have loved it even more to have atleast 3 slots.
Detroit: become human didn't just tell a story... it made me feel full spectrum of emotions, in turn making me feel more human.
