OK, now what sort of tomfoolery is this - the release footage looks better than the demo reels. This was true also with the God of War E3 reveal vs. the actual game.
This trend needs to stop! Bring back the bullshots!

Do you really think that it looks better compared? With this and GOW they both looked worse. Much less detailed, with flashy techniques to appear like it actually looks good.

Oh god, playing this with Alexa in the background sounds amazing. They should also have done a Playlink episode or missions for this game. Also the game looks amazing despite the downgrade in colors and light (which is really fucking annoying I'll give you that).

What's with the Depth Of Field? Too much IMO and spoils the graphics quite a bit. I mean most of the time you can't see even 5-10m away as blurry as fuck!
I hope there's an option to time it down or they change it and stop overusing it for using it's sake.
Other than that, I may purchase day 1. Liked it.
Edit. Even 1-2m away when slightly to the sides iirc.

Digital foundry did comparisons, GOW had a significant upgrade.

They apparently did a partnership with Amazon to use AI assistant in conjunction with the game so you can ask question to Alexa on an Amazon Echo for example: https://www.playstation.com/en-us/games/detroit-become-human-ps4/cyberlife-skill/

Got my pre-order down today.
Still need to complete GoW but didn't want to pass up on the Heavy Rain inclusion.

I just find it so hard to believe it's going to be between 20-25 hours to complete.
How long did Beyond and Heavy Rain take roughly? If it's accurate it will be a day 1 purchase for me after all... but I'm highly sceptical.

Both were between 10-15 hours I think, so this is considerably larger.

That's pretty much what I thought.
The 20-25 hour figure must be massaged somehow, even more so when you think a character or all of them can die at various points. Maybe seeing every possible outcome/scene variation this is correct, but that would be a very different thing to traditional game length.
I'd love to be proven wrong.

As a Detroiter, I'm deeply offended that this pussy game is named after my city. That is all.

What do you mean pussy game? This is a potential GOTY candidate.

As a QD fan, I'm offended that this GoTY candidate is named after such a garbage city.
Am I doing it right or should I have used pussy, or a gay slur?

Well given Sony had loads of confidence to release God of War reviews a week (?) before release, I wonder if this bodes badly?
I still want the play time confirmed before I lay down £52.

I don't know how much to read into it. Other times embargoes have been ON launch day, or even the day after (can't think of any examples off the top of my head, but it's happened).
RE the play time (for a single playthrough) there seems to be a range of conflicting, unconfirmed info. As little as 8 hours and as much as 25. I'd be happy with 12-15; doubt it'll be higher than that based on the amount of branching we can expect.

That seems like a reasonable estimate, and something I'd be satisfied with. If (and only if) there are meaningful different endings depending on player choice, so you can replay it. Going by the demo, there's no way that the six eventual outcomes would all affect the plot at large (there'd be too much branching), but we'll see how much the player really influences the story.
As to the review embargo lifting so close to release, it's not something unheard of. Quite common really nowadays - the fact that GoW and Horizon both had their embargos lifted a week (or so) before release is more of an exception than a rule.
