For a game that would easily fit in the "interactive movie" category, I was blown away by the sheer number of choices and agency you had. The moment you finish a level and it shows the branching path thing it's like "holy shit, I missed a ton!"
If you like this then you should also enjoy Heavy Rain.
Obligatory Heavy Rain comment... "Shaun!"
Shaaaaaauuuuun-Sh-Sh-Shaunnnn
I prefer the world-famous song “Press X to Jason”

Since it’s about the first 5-10 minutes of the game, it’s not a big spoiler.
Stupid Jason.
That’s aite but doesn’t hold a candle to the hilarity that is SHAAAUUUUUUN
Indeed.
I suggest anyone intending to play the game doesn't search on YouTube for this as it contains major spoilers.
Yes, it really reminds me of the Black mirror.
That game was really a masterpiece! I enjoyed every part of it!
I’m really looking forward to the next Quantic Dream game, as they never disappoint even if Beyond Two Souls was inferior to their other games.
Pulled the trigger.
David Cage understandably gets a lot of flak, but the Quantic Dreams games aren't actually bad at all. I've played Fahrenheit, Heavy Rain, Beyond: Two Souls and Detroit. And while they aren't top-tier excellent, they were all memorable.
This game was easily one of my favorites to playthrough blind, then go back and do a 100% achievement run. "Choices matter" actually applies as main characters can just die, and their absence completely changes the outcome of the game.
It was a delight.
It is a very good game and makes an admirable job of showing you the branching paths and impact of your decisions. Presumably creating incentives to replay, but personally I was just satisfied to get my own story and knowing how it could have gone different in many ways. Also well written, they tend to get flak for their writing, but compared to most video game writing it’s pretty good.
Cool, this is my first time hearing about the game and it does look pretty great. Thanks!
There was no way to spam X to yell "Jaaasooonnn or Ssshaaawwwnnnn." - 0/12
In all seriousness. Great game. Definitely their best. Definitely the least cringe. Heavy rain is a meme game and a classic, but I can't get over the fact that the main playable female character in that game is literally ONLY there to function as a sexual object that fucks the main character, takes care of him, and gets assaulted in her underwear. Luckily Detroit didn't seem to have nearly as much of that cringe bullshit. David Cage writes video game scripts like a fucking incel, so glad Detroit was a welcome change of pace.
I remember getting run over and the game ended - before the story was wrapped .
Interesting experience and passed the time - but is definitely on the interactive fiction category
I think I got this game for free on my ps4 and have yet to install it. Gotta get around to it!
Give it a try, you might like it
I remember someone being named Connor, a fandom on tumblr, and robots.
Is anyone named Detroit and does anyone become human?
A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.
