Misplaced Blame shitter!
This wouldn’t be a QTE festival of lights by Quantic Dream without a Discothèque Benêt. But this one is less of a discotheque and more of a Maison Close. But t’inquiète, the benêt part has been preserved!
Instead of sauntering about as Madison Paige, enquêteur non autorisé, you’ll take the role of quizzical scarecrow Connor III, flic en plastique! This grisly scene of debauchery takes place at The Eden Club, where patrons may rent mannequins for adult conversations, and which I suppose is thusly named to evoke unbridled nude passion. Except nobody is nude and there’s not even like a garden pattern in the digital screens or anything. How about.. “Flipped Bits”? “Hard Refresh”? “RAM”? I thought of three awful ones just sitting here and they’re all way better than THE EDEN CLUB.
Anyway, what do we have here? Looks like the scene of some vigilante justice on an untethered misogynist (foreground). Au contraire, in Detroit: Become Human the only organisms with permission to remain chaotically unhinged are ORGANIC people-types, get it right, and the crime Connor III is genuinely expected to unearth is a search-and-destroy for a robot lady who broke this fleabag’s neck when he tried to rip her arms off. Connor III even reboots the other robot lady you see there on the floor, who was bricked by the dead brute, and makes her rattle off factoids about where the second robot went. She’s probably at IT getting her cracked faceplate fixed, and not at all fussed about feeding tyrants to the land. You really must have some gall to check into a fancy hotel and smash the electronics. These robots are the property of Flipped Bits, and the risk of your messy death in the fine print of the agreement you signed to spend time with these $300,000 hourly companions. Sorry, nameless corpse! Nobody will miss you, though.
While we’re still here, check out that shitter. Really bizarrely frosted glass up top with clear translucent glass below. I guess dalliances of all kinds are welcome at Flipped Bits.
