The No-Frills, No-Spills Auto-Save: Your Detroit Guardian Angel
Unlike some other games that treat saving like a state secret, Detroit: Become Human is all about that automatic love. The game auto-saves at key points throughout each chapter. You'll see a little blue circle in the corner flash when this happens – it's like a digital pat on the back saying, "Hey, good job not accidentally deleting Detroit with a rogue button press!"
Pro-Tip: Don't be a quitter! If you see that blue circle and decide to bounce out mid-chapter, your progress might get a bit grumpy. Best to stick it out until the next auto-save or, you know, the android revolution takes hold.
QuickTip: Don’t rush through examples.
Embrace the Flowchart: Your Map to Not-Getting-Lost (Literally and Figuratively)
Detroit: Become Human loves its flowcharts. These branching paths map out all your decisions and their consequences. They're a fantastic way to see how your choices ripple through the story, but more importantly, completed sections of the flowchart are saved. So even if you make a choice that leads to a character getting turned into a toaster (sorry, spoiler alert... maybe?), that decision is locked in and your progress is safe.
Bonus Fun: Filling out the flowchart is half the fun! It's like a choose-your-own-adventure book on steroids, and seeing all the different paths you could have taken adds a whole new layer to the experience.
Still Sweating Bullets? Here's What Not to Do:
- Don't smash your controller in a fit of rage (looking at you, Markus!). A broken controller won't help anyone (except maybe the parts guy at the local electronics store).
- Don't hold your breath until you turn blue waiting for the auto-save. Breathe easy, my friend. The game's got your back (unless you choose to make some very poor decisions...).
- Don't trust that sketchy-looking squirrel you saw outside your window offering "totally legit" save game editors. Stick to the built-in system, trust me.
