I finished my second playthrough last night and I honestly don't regret letting Kara die immediately in my first playthrough. Everything involving Connor and Markus was leagues more entertaining than Kara's story which has next to nothing to do with the overall conflict. It's just "what zany murder trap did Kara stumble into today?"

Partly because there actually isn't a whole lot of variance in how that chapter can go.

I'm walking Humans, the BBC series, right now and it really seems like Cage ripped it off wholesale for Detroit. I started watching on a whim, but I actually like it a lot. It's slow and low stakes for the most part, but that actually gives them time to build the androids and the world instead of handwaving everything.

pack it in already posted:Ralph knows. He's direct about it in your first dialogue with him. If you're referring to what happens in the morning, listen to what he's saying. Since you're playing pretend, he's trying his best to participate. I'm half a month late on this but if you buy the model viewer for the bus guy it mentions that he's not a driver, he just does end of route maintenance and that sort of thing since while everything is self-driving, on something like a public bus it's nice to have some kind of supervision. There's a bunch of minor character tidbits in there. -- Also, game really needs to let you skip the Finding Jericho sequence and the Horror House bit on replays because (especially for Jericho) there's only one way that can go and they don't impact later sections at all.

Wikipedia says 2015 and Detroit was announced either the first or second e3 after PS4 came out. So 2013 or 2014. That is if you count the Kara tech demo thing as an "announcement"

Also, finished another playthrough and I totally think robot rebellion + Kara concentration camp is the most thrilling ending. The pacisfist route bored me to tears.

I played through this at my girlfriend's behest and guess what? It was actually quite good in spite of David Cage's involvement, although maybe that was because I got a fairly interesting rare ~4% ending. Kara died immediately, and Connor completed the gently caress out of his mission which means that Markus and Jericho were left very, very dead.

Just finished my second full playthrough with every possible Connor death. Started off funny, then got depressing, but managed to be hilarious again by the end. Chloe in the menu was very miffed with me throughout.

Oh yeah, after I finished the game single-handedly shutting down the rebellion as Connor, my Chloe asked to be set free... in a world where deviants are being systematically eradicated. Are you sure you want that???

A shame this game being PS4 only means I can't mod it so that whenever you replay the junkyard-Markus segment, it doesn't play the Robot Hell music from Futurama. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rSGDM6WDAGo

I never thought I'd see a tattoo that would be (if even marginally) less trashy and more on-point if it were a tramp stamp. (After getting a crash course in DBH creative decisions and the fandom husbando thirst, my mum wanted to believe I was talking about an NPC being this daft instead of a real person, and then wanted to believe it was a joke. She has since likened it to getting a boyfriend's name tattooed on your tit - which still would have been a better place for this loving thing.) There were options. There were quotes. The android sent by CyberLife in cursive with fish and blue hearts is a concept I just pulled out of my arse, but I bet by now the canvas wishes she'd gotten something like that instead. Ugh. Who the gently caress was the tattoo 'artist' that saw no problem with this?

Christ I’m sick of people falling all over themselves to show how offended they are at everything. It’s a dumb tattoo that’s probably a little tone deaf just like the game it’s directly referencing. People need to chill out.

Finished a second playthrough, considering I only played about 60% (Kara never made it out of the house and Markus lost the fight against Connor in Jericho, leaving North to take over the rebellion) of it last time: Connor wasn't just a machine, but a REALLY heartless one. Hank committed suicide unlike last time where I was just neutral with everyone. Markus led the most half-hearted violent revolution ever, where he met Connor on the battlefield and got his loving limbs and neck snapped. Kara did everything right, made it to the border, and got herself, Luther, and Alice publicly executed because of Markus' lovely revolution. I gotta say, whoever wrote the bad/tragic endings did a drat fine job.

Game finished today and I can't believe how much I enjoyed a David Cage joint. I took the violent / rear end in a top hat responses pretty much throughout, which skips over a lot of what sounds like teeth-grindingly obvious MLK quotes in favor of smashing stuff with an iron pipe. Results: Markus: Successfully led ultraviolent robot revolution including sick as hell action scenes where he demolished a squad of riot cops, CQC'd a whole load of army dudes without sustaining a scratch, successfully liberated the android camp, blew up a tank with a bazooka and got it on with North. Has fully embraced destiny as robot tyrant. Detroit now in android hands, humans fleeing in terror. Kara: Crossed Canadian border with Alice by sacrificing Luther. Luther held a gun to Alice's head, which I guess caused them not to scan us. Living it large in Canada. Connor: Psychopathic robot fuckhead who got his kicks from torturing Hank. Cold and unfriendly to everyone he met, never missed a chance to remind Hank that androids are just machines. Drove Hank so crazy he shot him in the head at one point, only to turn up at work the next day looking smug. When the police chief fired Hank and Connor for being screwups Hank quit the force and Connor didn't care about the plot, so headed home to Cyberlife where all Connors were permanently and voluntarily deactivated." All in all a pretty interesting story. I've read up on the pacifist playthrough and it sounds loving boring. Winning the revolution with a song rather than a bazooka?  Also I got a tonne of 0% scenes towards the end so I was pleased that I was at least being contrarian. Necrothatcher fucked around with this message at 00:29 on Aug 23, 2018 |

I replayed a few chapters out of curiosity. With Markus, its so convenient that giving other androids free will also happens to mean they will follow his commands whenever he needs it. Would've liked an ending in which the androids Markus 'freed' were revealed to just be puppets.

I had a run with that, rebel Marcus, and terminator Conor and it was by far my favorite. Played out like an action thriller at the end with Marcus, unknowingly, racing against the clock to save Kara.
