So You Wanna Be a Rooftop Robin Hood? How NOT to Shoot Daniel in Detroit: Become Human (Because Let's Be Honest, You Shouldn't)
Ah, Detroit: Become Human. A game that throws more moral dilemmas at you than a philosophy professor on a sugar rush. And right smack dab in the middle of this ethical rollercoaster lies the hostage situation on the roof with everyone's favorite cinnamon bun of a deviant, Daniel.
Now, some of you cowboys out there might be itching for a quickdraw solution. You see a scared kid with a gun, a hostage dangling precariously, and your trigger finger gets a twitch. But hold on there, buckaroo, before you go John Wick on this rooftop, let's unpack this situation like a delicious sushi roll (minus the whole shooting people thing, that's not very sushi-like).
Why Shooting Daniel is a Recipe for Disaster (with a Side of Regret)
QuickTip: Scan quickly, then go deeper where needed.
First things first, shooting Daniel is a gamble with potentially messy consequences. Here's why:
- Collateral Damage: Emma - Remember the sweet little girl he's holding? Yeah, about that. Bullets don't exactly discriminate in a hostage situation. One wrong move and you've got a double KO, which isn't exactly a win in Connor's (or the player's) book.
- You Might Just Shoot Yourself in the Foot (Literally) - Daniel's a scared kid, not a trained marksman. If you spook him, that gun could end up going off in any direction, including right back at you. Ouch. Instant fail, and not the fun kind.
- Turning Deviant Terminator? Not Today - Connor's whole purpose is to understand deviancy and find peaceful solutions. Blasting away a scared kid might push him further down the "rogue android" path, which is not ideal for anyone (except maybe CyberLife's stock prices).

- Become the Friend Daniel Never Had: This kid is scared and confused. Show him some empathy, build some rapport. Be the cool android uncle he never knew he needed.
- Words, Not Bullets: Talk it out! Explain things, calm him down. You've got the processing power of a supercomputer, use it to find the right words.
- The Power of Trust: Earn it. Slowly. Be patient. This isn't a quickdraw competition, it's a trust-building exercise.
Remember, patience and a silver tongue are your best weapons in this situation.
