The thrilling tale of Josh: Can this android dodge the dirt nap in Detroit: Become Human?

Here Today, Gone Tomorrow? The Perils of Josh
There are a couple of times in the game where Josh finds himself dangling precariously over the edge of the abyss (metaphorically speaking, of course. Androids don't technically have abysses to fall into). The first comes during the SWAT raid on Jericho. Here, things get dicey. You'll see Josh locked in a brutal beatdown with a particularly grumpy soldier.
This is your moment to shine!
Do this: Charge in like a cybernetic knight in shining armor and lay the smackdown on that soldier. Don't do this: Stand there like a glitching lamppost, because hesitation equals a one-way ticket to the scrap heap for Josh.
QuickTip: Pause after each section to reflect.
The second close call comes later in the game during the whole "Markus leading a robot uprising" situation. There's a bit of a dust-up, and wouldn't you know it, Josh is back in the danger zone. This time, though, you might not be able to directly intervene.
Deep breaths everyone! There's still hope. The outcome here depends on the path you've chosen for Markus throughout the game. If you've steered him towards a more peaceful resolution (think less uprising, more kumbaya), then Josh is likely to survive the chaos.
But if Markus has gone full-on robo-revolution on your watch? Buckle up, because things might get messy.
Tip: Pause if your attention drifts.
In this scenario, Josh's fate is a bit more up in the air, and it might involve a heroic sacrifice (cue the sad music).

So, Can You Save Josh or Are You Doomed to Eternal "I Shoulda Saved Josh" Regrets?
The good news is, with the right choices, you can absolutely keep Josh safe and sound. He deserves a happy ending, after all!
_The bad news? _ It requires some strategic maneuvering and maybe a touch of luck (depending on your Markus choices). But hey, that's part of the thrill of Detroit: Become Human, right?
QuickTip: Reflect before moving to the next part.
