Vi undrade varför Quantic Dream vakt just Detroit som skådeplats för sitt kommande science fiction-spel Become Human. Därför frågade vi Adam Williams, lead screenwriter, vad det berodde på och om inspiration möjligen hämtats från Robocop (filmerna utspelas i Detroit). Någon sådan koppling fanns dock inte, men Williams förklarade:
"We choose Detroit because it was once the capital of the car industry and Ford Motors. During the first industrial revolution in America, Detroit became one of the major cities in the country due to most cars being built there. After the car industry became global, many car companies abandoned Detroit, and the city shrunk because of it, with huge areas becoming empty where these factories use to be. We took that into our game, and in it, Cyber-Life, the company that manufactures the androids, chose Detroit to settle in. And just as with the car industry in the past, in our universe Detroit became once again the center of the second industrial revolution in the US and the world.
Så nu vet vi det. Därför heter allt spelet just Detroit: Become Human.
