8 Horrific Things Detroit: Become Human Makes You Do

1. Set Off A Dirty Bomb Or Sacrifice Yourself

Even if you make the decision to charge ahead with a peaceful android uprising as Marcus in Detroit, you always have one violent ace up your sleeve should things go south. Given the detonator to a dirty bomb positioned in the centre of the city, you can always use this devastating option as a last resort if a peaceful protest doesn't win over the public.

You'll be tempted to use it as well, as while a peaceful approach can result in a good outcome, it also comes with its fair share of casualties. Despite posing no real threat, the military will gun down your followers - including key characters you've grown attached to - mercilessly culling the herd while you refuse to retaliate.

Of course, being subjected to one act of villainy after another eventually takes its toll, and the dirty bomb seems more and more like justified revenge, even if you've insisted on a pacifist approach for the entirety of the game. You don't have to hit that button, but after the pain the game puts you through for trying to be kind, you won't be ridiculed for doing so.
