They Live! (Maybe): A Guide to Keeping Everyone Alive in Detroit: Become Human
So you've dived headfirst into the world of Detroit: Become Human, a game where your choices have more weight than a sumo wrestler on a seesaw. You've befriended a sassy little android named Alice, wrestled with your own identity as Connor (an RK800 with more existential dread than a goth teenager), and maybe even sparked a revolution with Markus (because who doesn't love a good robot uprising?). But here's the thing: this world is about as safe as a petting zoo full of hungry tigers. Characters can die faster than a fly in a bug zapper, and you hold the controller (or mouse, no judgment). Fear not, fellow android sympathizer (or just someone who doesn't want to see their favorite characters become deactivated scrap metal)! This guide will equip you with the knowledge to become the ultimate shepherd of synthetic souls, ensuring everyone gets a happy (or at least not-dead) ending.

First Things First: The Core Three
Let's face it, the heart of Detroit: Become Human lies in the journeys of Kara, Connor, and Markus. Keeping these three amigos kicking is crucial to unlocking the coveted "Survivors" trophy and achieving that warm, fuzzy feeling of having saved the day (or, you know, the decade). Here's a crash course in keeping them shiny and new:
Tip: Skim only after you’ve read fully once.
Kara and Alice: These two are basically android Thelma and Louise, except with less canyon-diving and more hiding from angry cops. Their survival hinges on building trust with each other and making smart choices during escapes and confrontations. Remember, sometimes the best option is to run like a stolen chassis rather than pick a fight with a room full of armed dudes.
Connor: This guy's got more lives than a stray cat. He can be deactivated and reactivated a bunch, but don't get too comfortable with that respawn button. Building a positive relationship with Hank (his grumpy human partner) is key, and so is resisting the urge to become deviant too soon. Patience, young padawan, patience.
Markus: Now, this is where things get interesting. Markus can lead a peaceful protest or a full-blown robot rebellion. The pacifist route is generally safer for both Markus and his fellow androids, but it also requires some strategic maneuvering and a whole lot of convincing. On the other hand, a revolution can get messy, and keeping everyone alive during an uprising is no walk in the park (especially not for park rangers, because, well, robots).
Remember: This is just a taste. There are many more characters whose fates rest in your hands.
Tip: Avoid distractions — stay in the post.
Bonus Tip: Play Nice With Others
While keeping the main cast alive is priority number one, don't forget about the supporting players! Saving characters like Luther (Kara's helpful friend) and Josh (Markus's right-hand robot) can not only earn you bonus points but also add some heartwarming moments to your playthrough.
