This guide will turn you from a liability to a life-saving BFF in no time.

| How To Keep Hank Alive Detroit Become Human |
Step 1: Befriending Hank - It's Not Just About Not Being a Jerk (Although That Helps)
Let's be honest, Hank's initial impression of Connor is somewhere between "glorified toaster" and "potential Terminator threat." The key to changing his mind? Be a decent human... er, android. Here's how:
- Don't be a yes-man. Hank appreciates a bit of sass. Disagree with him respectfully, show some independent thought. Just don't go rogue and try to overthrow CyberLife on day one. (Unless that's your thing, no judgment here.)
- Listen to the man. Hank's got a lot of baggage. Let him vent, show some empathy. You're an advanced android, surely you can handle a little existential dread.
- Play detective! This is your job after all. Analyze the crime scene, piece together clues. Show Hank you're not just a fancy glorified Roomba.
- Actually be helpful. Don't let Hank do all the work. Help him up after a fight, save him from getting shot (looking at you, rooftop scene). This bromance is a two-way street, buddy.
Pro-Tip: Play catch with Sumo! It's a guaranteed way to Hank's heart (and a hilarious mental image).
Tip: Reread if it feels confusing.
Step 2: Choices, Choices - A Guide to Not Getting Yourself Deactivated (or Worse)
There will be times when Connor has to make some tough calls. Here's a crash course on keeping yourself (and Hank) alive:
- Don't be reckless. Think before you jump off buildings or make suicidal stands. Hank might not appreciate that heroism.
- Be on the lookout for QTEs. These quick-time events can mean life or death for both you and Hank. Stay sharp, those reflexes are there for a reason.
- When in doubt, choose the deviant option. Let's face it, Hank secretly digs the soulful android thing. Just don't go full-on rogue and try to enslave humanity. (Again, no judgment, but maybe save that for another playthrough.)
Remember: A happy Hank is a safe Hank.
Reminder: Take a short break if the post feels long.
Step 3: The Big Showdown - Saving Hank's Bacon (Literally)
There's a chance you might encounter a not-so-friendly Connor model later in the game. This metal doppelg�nger might hold Hank hostage. Here's what to do:
- Pick the "Save Hank" option. This might seem obvious, but hey, you never know.
- Prepare for a fight. You gotta throw down with the imposter Connor. Button mash those QTEs like your life depends on it (because it kind of does).
- When prompted, choose to interpose. This means stepping between Hank and the evil Connor.
Now here's the tricky part:
QuickTip: Skim for bold or italicized words.
- If you've befriended Hank, you might get a chance to talk him down. Answer his questions correctly (Sumo's name, Hank's son's name) and you both walk away (mostly) unscathed.
- If you haven't been the best partner, well...prepare for a sad scene.
Moral of the story: Befriend Hank, people! It's good for your emotional well-being and your continued existence.
