10 Overhyped Video Game Storylines That Actually Went Nowhere
10. rA9 - Detroit: Become Human
Detroit: Become Human poses a lot of interesting questions about the nature of AI and our relationship with technology that are ultimately resolved in a somewhat underwhelming fashion. However, if there is one plot point that has left the players especially disappointed for its complete and utter lack of resolution, it's probably the teased RA9 plotline.
RA9 is the teased "god" of the deviant androids who is consistently referenced throughout many points in the game. The story makes it seem as though rA9 could serve as a point of discussion about androids' relation to spirituality or some intriguing plot twist that will play an important role in the final act of the game, but once the deviant revolution starts, rA9 is pushed aside and completely forgotten.
At one point, Detroit even teases that the deviant god could actually be a virus created by CyberLife to make their androids gain sentience, but this is never brought up again, and the only thing you're left with is a basic story with predictable endings and a ton of questions that will never be answered.
It seems the greatest mystery was why we even bothered to care about rA9 at all...
