I'm sorry... I'm just really excited for this game.

Added DiffLines:

* AwesomenessByAnalysis: Connor, being an advanced police android, demonstrates during the hostage situation depicted in the E3 2016 trailer that he makes on-the-fly mathematical calculations of his percent chance of rescuing the hostage. A fuller video of the sequence being played showed that Connor felt, upon arriving on the scene, that he had a fifty-fifty chance of rescuing the hostage. Which then drops to a 48% chance of success when the hostage's mother becomes quite angry upon realizing he's not a 'real person'.

Added DiffLines:

* TheKetchupTest: Apparently Connor can, given an android bloodstain, tell what model android produced it by ''[[SniffSniffNom tasting]]'' the blood.


Added DiffLines:

* SuperPrototype: A [[http://blog.us.playstation.com/2016/06/13/detroit-become-human-new-trailer-new-playable-character-detailed/ blog post]] from David Cage describes Connor as a prototype with a number of very advanced features, which can include, if you get the best possible ending for sequence depicted in the E3 2016 trailer, a very strong understanding of human and humanlike behavior.

** The protester confronting the android looks like he is based on Sam Douglas which has the side effect of making him look a lot like Scott Shelby from Creator/QuanticDream's ''VideoGame/HeavyRain'' who was also based on Sam Douglas.

added tropes from the trailers

Added DiffLines:

* ArtificialIntelligence: Of course - all the androids are able to travel, perform manual labor or participate in highly advanced jobs, but only Kara is fully sentient and completely independent. Interestingly, all of the androids seem to display a degree of emotional intelligence or self-awareness; when Kara freely walks through the city, other androids look on with shock, awe, or longing, indicating that they are aware of her freedom.

Added DiffLines:

* KilledOffForReal: If the player makes the choices, then the playable characters will die and the story will continue. Connor can be killed during the hostage situation in a HeroicSacrifice, for example.


Added DiffLines:

* UncannyValley: Invoked - androids aren't ''quite'' as detailed compared to humans, having smoother skin than humans and having slightly stunted emotional displays, especially when they aren't talking.
Is there an issue? Send a MessageReason:
None

Added DiffLines:

* AlienBlood: Androids bleed blue liquid when injured.
* AnotherSideAnotherStory: Like Heavy Rain, the game features multiple playable characters with different perspectives. Like Heavy Rain, if certain characters die, the story will continue but be slightly altered.
