Unlike most science fiction themes related to robots, the protagonists are mainly human beings.

In "Detroit: Become Human", there are three protagonists that players can control and experience, and they are all bionic people.

Connor, Marcus and Kara.

And their jobs are completely different.

Among them, Connor should be regarded as the most special one.

Because he is an android who assists the police in investigating abnormal androids.

To put it simply, it is to solve troublesome incidents one by one.

Such as negotiation and interrogation.

As for the other two bionics, they have the same ending, that is, becoming abnormal bionics.

But the situation they faced before that was completely different.

Among them, Marcus can be said to be an extremely lucky bionic man. Judging from the introduction, he is a prototype bionic man and was given to an old painter named Karl to take care of his daily life.

And Karl did not treat Marcus as a slave.

In fact, their relationship is more like that of a father and son.

When Chen Xu manipulates Marcus to take care of Carl, the emotional connection can be clearly felt.

And Karl often said some philosophical words to Marcus, and this was the sentence that touched Chen Xu the most.

'There will come a day when I can no longer take care of you. You have to protect yourself and make your own decisions... decide who you are or who you want to be. ’

‘The world doesn’t like people who are different, Marcus, don’t let others tell you who you should be. ’

It can be seen from these conversations that Marcus and Karl are not a simple master-servant relationship.

Carl truly taught Marcus as if he were his own son.

Of course, Karl himself actually has a son.

But this son is not very filial.

He just wanted to get money from Carl.

This is the main reason why Marcus later became an abnormal android.

But even though Marcus became an abnormal android, Carl still emphasized in the end that Marcus should leave quickly.

Because once a bionic man escapes control and becomes abnormal, the bionic man will be controlled and then scrapped.

On the other hand, it was different from Marcus who had met a good master.

Kara is an ordinary domestic service android, and the master Todd she met is completely different from Carl.

So one night, when Todd once again couldn't control his bad temper, he even hit Alice.

Finally, Kara broke through her own barrier, became an abnormal android, and left that home with Alice.

The plot of breaking the barrier and becoming an abnormal android also made Chen Xu extremely excited.

As an interactive movie game on a VR platform.

Its biggest feature is immersion.

Especially the operation mode of brain-computer interface adds to this sense of immersion.

For example, when operating Kara to do housework for Todd, Chen Xu was only thinking about how to mop the floor and wash dishes.

It can be said that he is an expert in housework inside his head.

And this feeling also made him feel a lot of frustration.

For example, Marcus was beaten up by a group of people for no reason, and Carl's son Leo looked like he didn't deserve a beating.

These all make players feel angry.

In the end, the barrier of the bionic man was broken and human free will was awakened, which also gave players a sense of immersion.

This kind of immersion is not only a plot, but also an emotional resonance.

As the game's plot progresses, players gradually shift their focus to the story of the game itself.

Different characters in the game have different stories.

It is different from Marcus and Kara who awakened as abnormal androids at the beginning.

In the early stages, Connor was always there to deal with cases of androids, and he was on the side of humans.

After the first case, players will also find that Connor has a human police partner, deputy captain Hank.

And unlike Kara and Marcus, Connor will give players a very special feeling.

Because both Marcus and Kara have become abnormal androids very early on, and have something similar to human will.

So Marcus and Kara behave more like humans than androids.

But Connor is different. In the early stage, Connor was still a normal android, so players can often see some ridiculous scenes.

For example, when Connor solemnly put blood into his mouth for analysis at a crime scene, Hank next to him would express that he couldn't stand it.

When he uses a slightly rigid procedural language to please his bad-tempered partner Hank.

Also, after he played with coins and was snatched away by Hank, he was programmed to appear aggrieved.

As well as a very clever sitting posture, these give players a very interesting feeling.

Of course, these are just some flavor enhancers that leisure brings to players.

In fact, the story of "Detroit: Become Human" is not that easy.

Even if Kara is just an android and a little girl's adventure story, her story is not that easy.

Among them, the chapter that made Chen Xu feel the most impactful was probably the chapter where Marcus came back from the dead.

After being shot by a police officer, Marcus did not die directly. When he struggled, he found himself in a garbage dump.

There are corpses of androids everywhere, and occasionally you can see half-dead androids like Marcus now.

Marcus, who had awakened the human will, did not want to be scrapped in this ghost place, so he wandered in the garbage dump looking for intact parts to replace the damaged parts on his body.

Here players will also have the same feeling of empathy as Marcus, for example, the sound effects in the game will imitate the sound effects heard by Marcus without the audio processor.

In the garbage dump, players can also see some living androids. They will pray to Marcus not to abandon them, pray to Marcus not to take their parts, and tell Marcus that they do not want to die.

This allows players to feel for the first time that androids are not just simple robots, they are also alive.

Just like the android who was interrogated by Connor before.

The reason why he killed his master was because he had been abused for a long time.

Simply looking for parts in the junkyard, and then after replacing the parts for himself, Marcus climbed out of the pile of dead people and gained a new life.

Facing the raindrops, Marcus opened his arms, as if embracing freedom.

He was once in heaven and now he is in hell.

Marcus then took off the mark symbolizing the android.

At this moment, Marcus' soul is no longer imprisoned by the plastic body of the android.

His will has fully awakened, and with what he saw and felt, Marcus strode away into the distance and disappeared into the rain.
