sp5der Detroit: Become Human Review

May 10, 2025
Detroid Become Human - A game that occupies a leading position in the rating: Best games in the genre - interactive cinema. And it's not just like that, the studio has done a great job developing the history of our possible, potential future, with the presence of android robots, and their future fate. It just so happened that for me, the passage of Detroit was not new, I watched the passage on YouTube several times, observing all the possible outcomes of certain choices and decisions. Therefore, the impressions, alas, were not the same, but even under this condition, the game sometimes surprised with its hidden cutscenes and dialogues. This shows the entire level of elaboration of the game. Not far from waste, I would like to touch on the gameplay component, this is, in a way, a perfect version of the studio's previous experiments with various mechanics: interaction of objects, and QTE events. However, as a player who is stuck in those very "early mechanics", it is difficult for me not to cancel the casualization of this aspect. In Heavy Rain, you literally broke your fingers by pressing 6-7 buttons at the same time, fighting for the life of the character. In Detroit, the system is much simpler, you just need to press the buttons in time, which are not very complicated. And in addition to this, some systems of interaction with the gamepad were removed. I would also like to speak out about the staging of the frames. The story itself is interesting, exciting and gives food for thought. However, the scenes themselves sometimes cause a feeling of shame. This is especially true for action moments, where the police act as wooden dummies, who only need to hit the Helmet with a brick to knock them out. Also, the artificial behavior of the crowd is strongly felt. Speaking of trophies, they are not very difficult, the only thing is that to get platinum, you will have to spend at least 30 hours, while replaying the game 2-3 times. Which can be considered a very boring activity.
