While game director <span>David Cage told <em>Kotaku<\/em><\/span><em> <\/em>after <em>Detroit<\/em>&#8216;s 2017 E3 demo that he was making a game about androids without an overtly political message drawing from real world politics, <span>the end result was quite the opposite<\/span>.  This obviously didn&#8217;t stop players from finding the game&#8217;s abject references of the Civil Rights Movement in the US and thinly-veiled allegory for racism <span>unintentionally hilarious<\/span> and <span>awkward<\/span> to play through.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">And for those wondering why the very obvious title \u201cTokyo: Become Human\u201d wasn&#8217;t chosen, that name was already used four years ago for the <span>nine-minute live-action Japanese promotional video for the game<\/span>.  Shame, that.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\">The premise of an android idol leading to a robo-revolution in the <em>Detroit: Become Human <\/em>universe sounds pretty on the money.  The concept has worked before with similar stories like <span><em>Vivy: Fluorite Eye&#8217;s Song<\/em><\/span>, and it&#8217;s hard not to find its artist&#8217;s enthusiasm endearing.  My only gripe is that Quantic Dream is not licensing a manga series following the misadventures of Hank, the millennial detective, and his sidekick Connor.  Hell, it could&#8217;ve even ventured into it being a <span>Boys Love<\/span> manga\u2026but I&#8217;m just thinking out loud.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\"><em>Detroit: Become Human Tokyo Stories <\/em>is expected to release on July 22 in Japan and will be available to purchase on <span>Comic Bridge<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-77igqf-0 bOfvBY\"> <!-- -->   <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>    .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Everybody say hi to the deviant idol, Reina.
