Detroit: Become Human Review

How androids are treated throughout the game also parallels how we treat those we don’t see as fully human. The game itself draws direct lines between how androids are treated in Detroit and how slaves were treated in South America.

So while the tech in Detroit: Become Human may be decades away, the attitudes it contains aren’t. The forced perspective of those who are treated like others forces the player to live in that perspective for a moment. It’s not often that a game makes us reconsider who we are as people, but Detroit: Being Human allows for a glimpse into that world and perhaps makes us slightly better at being human ourselves.

Overall, if you’re a fan of choice-driven storytelling and storylines that make you reconsider everything you thought you knew about what it means to be human, I’d recommend giving Detroit: Become Human a twist.
