◆ Detroit: What is Become Human?
Detroit: Become Human is a future ahead of now, a world where AI and robotics engineering have developed, the stage is "Detroit of 2038" which turned into a big city by the appearance of a humanoid robot "Android".


While the advent of Android has made rapid progress, the work that human beings have done so far has been replaced by android, and the unemployment rate continues to rise in the United States, which is a problem. And anti - android emotion is growing centering on low - income people.


Extreme people who wield spiritual and physical violence against the android who can not resist human beings.


Some people do not move to actual actions. A board written "Destroy Android".


Some people put boards on which words that emphasize the difference between machines and humans are written such as "human music!" "Music is a soul". With this feeling you can feel what kind of feelings human beings have with android everywhere in the city of Detroit.


And from amongst the unconditional and persecuted persecution of the Androids, not only are they being merely silent but also "mutants" that have will and feel as human beings will resist against humans.


Detroit: Become Human can experience "2038 Detroit" with three different android perspectives. Players are able to see "distorted relationship between androids and humans in the game" from various angles while being forced to make difficult decisions such as moral being questioned, or a serious choice that is related to the end of the story. The choices that come out as the story progresses are transformed into things that are difficult to choose, and you will be stuck in the depths of the story while bothering your heads.

In order to investigate the case caused by the mutant android, "Conner" dispatched to Detroit police from the cyber life of the android maker


"Marcus" to summarize variants for uproading android rights and rise up


Furthermore, if you look at the trailer movie released to commemorate the release in Japan, you can grasp Detroit: Become Human's worldview in more detail.

◆ just like a movie Beautiful graphics
Detroit: One of the Uri of Become Human is a beautiful and realistic image like a live-action photograph. Since the game part that players can move the character is high quality, and it often also do not know from the movie part of when switched, it was frequently or sometimes referred to as "imperceptibly had to move the character!". Not only is the image beautiful, it is also a point that "a world view that is not amusing even on the near future earth" and "near-reality character design" are very matched with beautiful images like live action.


Moreover, it is characterized also that there is almost no interface on the game screen. Only the necessary minimum information is displayed on the screen, and nothing is displayed on the screen except when the player can take some action. Therefore, the immersive feeling in the image is high, it seems that you are about to forget that you are manipulating the character.


Of course, the actions that the player should take in advancing the game are instructed firmly on the screen and can be confirmed at any time.


The following movies are scenes where players chase variants by operating Connor. Actually manipulating Connor and running around while performing actions, it is as beautiful as it seems to forget what you are manipulating for a moment "It's just a movie action scene?"

Besides, scenes that dive from the roof of the building, such as scenes of a lot of powerfulness transmitted only because it is a beautiful graphic are prepared.



◆ Open scenario where the will of the player decides where the story goes
If you are watching a movie or a drama, some people may have felt "for yourself to do this" against the behavior and remarks of the character. In Detroit: Become Human, the player can choose the decision decided by the character, so the story progresses exactly as "according to yourself!" This is a feasible point because it is an open scenario prepared for complex mystery.

In addition, time limits are usually set in the displayed options, and it is quite severe. While considering "How do you do?", Time limits often come close, so you have to choose choices according to your intuition as soon as you think carefully. Also, thanks to the time limit, there is no time in a good meaning, it takes time to choose the choice and it is also a good thing that it will not hurt the tempo of the story. Even if you lose your choice, you have chosen the action "silence", and everything affects the story.


Sometimes you will be forced to choose moral, so players will be bothered with Android, who should not have a mind. In addition, because the options do not necessarily lead to the behavior as expected by the player, we can also encounter the surprise from the surprise that "This has been moved" and the story does not advance as the player envisioned.


Detroit: Become Human has a story in more than 30 chapters in all. When each chapter is cleared, a "flow chart" that visualizes how the story changed due to the choices that appeared in the chapter and the action taken by the player is displayed. Although there are not so many branches that appear on the first chapter ... ...


As the story arrives at the end of the story, the branches will expand complicatedly. This flow chart is prepared separately for every three body of Kara, Conner, Marcus and there are scenes where three androids are operated separately on one chart at the end, so you can enjoy a fairly wide variety of stories It is possible to confirm.


In addition, if you return to the main menu you can also recreate from the beginning of the chart you cleared, so the answer of "If you have chosen different option, but if you have chosen another option over there ..." Good thing can be confirmed. In addition, it takes about 14 hours to play Detroit: Become Human while shooting screenshots and movies, and to clear the story all the time, according to the official it is the highest to play all branches 40 It will take about a hour.


◆ Operation & Investigation
Detroit: In the game mode of Become Human, there are two kinds of "CASUAL" in a mode that enjoys a story with a simple operation, "EXPERIENCED" which makes the operation complicated and the difficulty becomes high. In the GIGAZINE editorial department, I chose "EXPERIENCED" at the time of review, but in most cases it is almost like pushing a button with a moving scene or the like like the following movie, like "It's complicated and incompatible" It should not be.

When manipulating the cones of the investigator android, it is possible to analyze the incident scene and to play out to unravel the truth of the case as follows. It looks like the following as a movie looking at how Conner actually analyzes the incident scene.

A person who wants to operate the character finely like an action game may remember "I want to mess with a bit more complicatedly", but on the contrary it may be difficult to "complicate the complex operation of the game" or " OK if you enjoy the story of the game "It seems to be a perfect game for those who say.

◆ Summary
Detroit: Become Human is like a "movie to play", as it is a beautiful graphic like live-actions and an open scenario where player's choice affects the story as it is. Still, a heavy scenario with more volume than the movie is prepared, plus a restart function from the beginning of the chapter to easily reproduce "If ... ... ...", and a flowchart allowing you to check the decision you have chosen Because it is prepared, it is a point that you can enjoy a variety of endings in one game. Of course, even if you play just once, it's just enough to enjoy it, but by playing multiple routes, you can see the real intention of each character and the ending of the world that you did not see in one play, Because it is possible to dig deep, if you want to enjoy "Detroit of 2038" more than once you should try to play the same chapter more than once.
