Game completed with all trophies on Playstation 4.

Gamertag: RTArroyo

Great game with a good story and visuals, maybe too many paths, gaining all trophies was a chore.

I didn't get to play Beyond Two Souls and Heavy Rain.

This might be the first game i played this kind.

And i enjoyed it.

Loved it.

Great story, sometimes it has some flaws but i understand that it's hard to keep together 3 different characters in the same game.

Hundreds of choices. You see the effects of each sooner …

Great story, sometimes it has some flaws but i understand that it's hard to keep together 3 different characters in the same game.

Hundreds of choices. You see the effects of each sooner or later. This is impressive.

Visuals are awesome.

I sat down and played on my couch.

I like the gameplay because i was in the relaxing mood after playing the goddamn Hollow Knight.

Loved it.

I’ve played one other Quantic Dream game before (heavy rain), and was not thrilled with the treatment of their female character. She is of course the only one we see naked, terrorized in her own home and a few other stereotypes.

I’ve played one other Quantic Dream game before (heavy rain), and was not thrilled with the treatment of their female character. She is of course the only one we see naked, terrorized in her own home and a few other stereotypes.

Though this one doesn’t seem as blatant, I can’t help but notice the female character in this one gets no special powers?

One is a sweet cyber detective capable of rewinding reconstructed events, another can plot the acrobatic parkour navigation of his surroundings and Kara...well...you see her get hit and chased a lot.

I am enjoying it quite a lot. It is true that David Cage has his things but the plot is deep and full of remarkable things. I have the feeling that it will be short though.

Hank's hair. lol

To be honest, I only wanted Connor to succeed and he failed. So that was frustrating. I really couldn't get into "androids have feelings too" theme and didn't care about robot characters. Graphics were really nice though. There were some breathtaking action sequences.

I found that he fact that some of my characters died in this game rather upsetting and quite disturbing, having looked after them for so long. What Detroit become human lacks in gameplay it more than makes up for in thought provoking narrative. It stays with you for days after. After looking on the net at all they endings, the differences between the happy endings and unhappy ones are so different. Some of the unhappy ones are deeply disturbing showing the darkest side of human nature.

Detroit excels at evoking a sense of place through environment design, but the writing ranges everywhere from almost interesting to god-awful.

Detroit excels at evoking a sense of place through environment design, but the writing ranges everywhere from almost interesting to god-awful. If there's one thing David Cage knows how to do as a writer, it's how to completely squander any meaningful interactions between characters by having them blurt out all of the subtext ad nauseum, reducing around 75% of the scenes to melodramatic nonsense.

Quantic Dream really needs to kick him out of the writer's chair for one of their games and have someone else come in who knows how to handle characters with nuance - it isn't fair to the rest of the devastatingly talented studio to have to support his honey glazed ham-fisted scripts with every release.

All the Conner chapters are amazing. I wish the whole game was just with Conner. In fact, give a spin off where it's just Conner, Hank and Sumo doing cop shit.

Free with PS+ this month. Just about the price I'm willing to play for another Cage game.

A great experience overall. However, the game has some issues and falls into some cliches that could have easily been avoided. I enjoyed the first 2 thirds of the game way more than the last. It is worth playing as it is engaging and unique. 7/10
