Just finished Detroit: Become Human. Spoilers and thoughts ahead:
I honestly didn't expect to be as conflicted by the end of it as I was. While I enjoyed the game for the most part, it did have issues, it's a bit heavy handed and cliched at times, but it also does a lot of things very well, which were my same feelings as Heavy Rain. While I will still defend Heavy Rain, as it has special value to me for a lot of reasons, and I think there is enough good in there, Beyond: Two Souls is terrible no matter how you put it, and I thought that Detroit just gonna be in the former, though the directions it took, and the way my story played out was not the way I think most were.
I lost Markus for one, which resulted in me not having the option to be pacifist, so Jericho went full terrorist, with me powerless to do anything, how that plays out with him alive I have no idea, but that route let my Connor, who I played as cold towards Hank as possible, to end up having to kill North.
Then there is Kara, and the twist with Alice that I predicted, but kind of hoped was just me making a weird connection, but indeed, she turns out to be an android too, while there are clues of course, don't fully understand why that was even necessary, I guess that Kara defending her was because she was human, and if you were to play the game as an anti-android, that may change your perception. To me, I continued to defend her, though I made some terrible decisions and she ended up dying in the end, with Kara staying alive.
The ending I got was...tough. I wished I had made other choices that wouldn't have led me to this ending, but it was also an interesting one, so in a way, I am glad it ended up that way, even if I felt gut-punched. I think that there was value here, I am glad I chose to play this, especially as I have watched parts of the game in Let's Plays, and I don't think it would have been the same if I didn't get to choose how things played out. If the game is good though, that's hard to say, of course if this kind of game isn't your thing, it's not the game that will convince you, but I think this game has value, and I think you should check it out if you haven't already.- Show previous comments 1 more

She's not the only one of her kind, the reveal is literally that Kara spots another one of her, and mistakes it for her. That being said, it is weird that we never see any other kid androids, obviously there would be others that don't look like her, but i guess they wanted to keep it as hidden as possible, though I realized that she never actually eats any of the food she is given throughout the game.
