Markus in Motown: A Guide to Not Getting Robo-Wrecked in Detroit
So you wanna take a sentient shopping buddy named Markus on a little joyride through the lovely city of Detroit? Great choice! Except, Detroit in the world of Detroit: Become Human is less "Motor City" and more "Murder City" for androids. But fear not, fellow fleshbag (or advanced AI, no judgement here), because this guide will turn you into a Markus survival master!

Avoiding the Robo-Scrapyard: Top Tips
Be a Pacifist with Pepper: Violence is all well and good in video games, but in Detroit, it can get messy. Markus can lead a peaceful revolution, but going guns blazing will attract more firepower than a Fourth of July fireworks display. Remember, sometimes the best weapon is a charming smile (or a well-placed EMP)
Be a Friend to the Friendless: Markus isn't a lone wolf. Befriend fellow androids like Josh and Simon. Not only will they be robo-bros in your time of need, but they also have some pretty cool skills (like hacking, which is super useful when you're on the run from the law).
Quick Time Events: Your New Best Friend: These little button-mashing moments can make the difference between Markus becoming a featured attraction at the Android Museum of Broken Dreams or leading his people to freedom. Practice those reflexes, my friend!
Spare Parts are a Lifesaver (Literally): Keeping your circuits up and running is important. Stock up on spare parts whenever you get the chance. You never know when you might need a new arm after a particularly enthusiastic fight with a SWAT team.
Bonus Round: Don't Be That Guy!
Don't make deals with creepy android salesmen: Looking at you, Perkins.
Don't trust everything that comes out of North's mouth: She may be a total badass, but her revolutionary spirit can sometimes lead to...well, let's just say "unnecessary casualties."
By following these sage words, you'll have Markus leading the android revolution in no time!
