I'm genuinely surprised that almost nobody talks about Kara and Alice in the dbh fandom
Like the fandom is still alive and Connor and Markus are getting a lot of attention, but when you compare with the characters from kara's story the difference is huge- I don't understand why's that ?
I know and understand that people love Connor bc he's hot or smth and also bc of all the memes, and Markus is also a very good character, but I can't understand why Kara is being left out.
In dbh, Connor's missions are where you're playing a game and honestly, investigating and making his instability go higher is a concept sooo cool and I enjoyed his story.
Markus is what I would call the main character since he has the most important choices, that can have consequences on the story of Connor and Kara. He's the plot line, let's be honest, and he kicks ass.
And Kara and Alice are the emotional part, they are the one who are the "victims" of Markus and Connor's choices. Their stories are the whole foundation of the hesitation you can have while taking big choices with the two others since they are the embodiment of all the deviants, at least that's what I experienced in my own game.
Also this is not at all an attack to the dbh fandom, I can understand how more appealing Connor and Markus are, since they are the whole gaming part of dbh, but I just think that Kara, Alice and Luther deserves more posts and art.
I'm going to post more about kara's whole storyline, I don't rlly care if ppl don't see my stuff, at least it's here for people that want it (also these are not going to be serious 💀)

Just finished watching the deleted scene, and I thought about smth
Why don't Alice get mad and throw a tantrum ? She's a little girl, constantly stressing about not dying and stuff, and she's just standing there, saying "I'm cold Kara" repeatedly and overall being just a little doll you need to take care of. Girl, kids ugly cry for no reason, why wouldn't she ? She could scream at Ralph, scream at Kara, scream at Zlatko, scream at Luther, but she's just there.
That would've made a huge difference in the scenarios, and possibly the most heartbreaking scenes. I mean, picture this : Kara and Luther are shot, and Alice starts screaming, sobbing, shouting pleads or straight up cursing the killer(s) with hiccups in her voice, just to get cut off by a bullet in the head. Reminds me of Gavroche's death smh.
But honestly, I don't even know how they would have a little girl play that. It's really hard to get a child to pretend strong emotions like that, and that's probably why Alice isn't a very developed character. But I'm SURE they could've done it. With a good kick in the ass, I'm sure this would've been a piece of cake for the animators.
Bc when Alice dies, you're sorry for Kara. Not for Alice. That's the problem, we're given zero attachment to her, not the slightest thing that could make her a good, emotional character. Like, give us a reason to not kill Kara immediately other than Kara herself.
Luther too, he's just the big fella that wants to protect his found family. Give us angst material Cage, make Luther have impostor syndrome about Kara and Alice's trust, make him more than a big guy with a so-called "big heart". Cause I don't see any "big heart", just an emergency solution.
And let Kara be angry god damnit. I wanna see the rage to live, the rage to protect. Here I got nothing but empty levels, except the first ones. In them, Kara and Alice can't really be angry, they're just lost. But, like, let them blow up at Zlatko's level, and after. Adam's being a little teen asshole, be agressive ?? He's literally treating y'all's right to live like shit and you're just there, feeling sorry for yourself ? Bruh

I finished Detroit Become Human for the first time last night, and wow. What a game.
I loved all the character and how actually impactful choices and the consequences felt, and I can't wait to replay to see different outcomes.
Kara, Alice and Luther were my favourite characters, but I enjoyed all the characters in the game. But something about these 3 and their journey together was so nice and made me tear up several times.
I also got a "really good" ending. Seriously, my ending was just so good. I definitely did not regret several things I did by the time I saw the consequences of my actions. No, that would be crazy haha
But overall, what a great game. Can't wait to see everything else it has to offer.
Here's a summary of the "really good" ending I got. Under the cut cause spoilers.
.
Connor remained a machine
I was hostile with Hank cause I found it funny how constantly annoyed and angry he got with Connor, and how Connor could sass him back. Then when I got the scene where Hank self disconnects from the server of life as Sumo cried out I was like "What have I done?"
Connor "completed his mission" and as reward I got the "I don't want to play with you anymore" dialogue where she tells Connor he's obsolete and that he will be replaced by Connor 2.0. I was livid at this moment, but hey, if it isn't the consequences of my decisions.
North died at Jericho during the raid. Simon died during the broadcast at Stratford tower and Josh died during the final battle with the military.
Markus led a violent android revolution that failed and he got killed by Connor.
Kara, Alice and Luther made it to the river, and I got Luther killed by making them jump on the water to hide from the patrol boat (I was like "HOW DID HE DIE? FROM GETTING INTO THE WATER? It was freezing water, but Ii wasn't thinking about that at the moment lol). Emotionally crippled because I had become so attached to Luther, but at least Kara and Alice made it to safety.

I came to adore Luther during my play through of Detroit: Become Human and I don’t think he gets enough love.
