So You Finished Detroit: Become Human... Now What? A Guide to Your Emotional Wreckage
Ah, Detroit: Become Human. A game that ripped your heart out, stomped on it a bit, then maybe sewed it back together with some hope (or duct tape, depending on your choices). You've reached the end, and now you're staring at the screen like Connor malfunctioning after a software update. Fear not, fellow android enthusiast (or should I say deviant?), because this guide is here to break down the wild world of endings you just experienced.

| How Does Detroit Become Human End |
Spoiler Alert: This is Your Captain Speaking, Brace Your Feels
Let's be honest, Detroit: Become Human doesn't exactly hold your hand when it comes to happy endings. There's more twists and turns than a Coney Island hot dog eating contest (and potentially just as messy). The biggest factor in how your story ends is the choices you make for Kara, Markus, and Connor, the three playable androids. Did Kara and Alice become Thelma and Louise over the border wall? Did Markus Gandhi-fy his way to freedom, or go all Robocop on the human race? Did Connor become best buds with Hank or turn into a cold, calculating machine even Asimov would be nervous about?

A Choose-Your-Own-Adventure Nightmare (or Dream?)
Here's a taste of the possibilities:
Tip: Review key points when done.
- Pacifist Power! Markus leads a peaceful protest, Kara and Alice find a new life in Canada, and Connor ditches Cyberlife to join the revolution. This is basically the "they all lived happily ever after" ending, but hey, who doesn't love a feel-good story with a side of robot uprising?
- Robot Rumble! Markus goes full-on Spartacus, Connor remains a loyal Cyberlife lapdog, and Kara gets stuck in a never-ending loop of creepy Zlatko. This ending is basically a giant metal middle finger to humanity, but hey, at least there are some cool action sequences? (Though maybe not the kind you want your therapist to hear about.)
- Everybody Dies! This one's pretty self-explanatory. Let's just say it involves a lot of tears and a strong urge to throw your controller at the wall. Bonus points if you managed to get everyone killed by Chapter 3. Congratulations, you win... at existential dread?
These are just a few examples, of course. The beauty (or nightmare, depending on your perspective) of Detroit: Become Human is the sheer number of endings you can experience. It's like a choose-your-own-adventure novel on steroids, except with more existential angst and less glitter.
QuickTip: Copy useful snippets to a notes app.
