We used to play Deus Ex 1 in a pair. The game was so different for each player and their playing style that it never got boring. We completed the whole game in this way.
One highlight that I remember was the explanation of mass surveillance being a replacement for less religion in a society. In the past people censored themselves because God was always watching. It was hoped that people would continue to censor themselves because Echelon was always recording and datamining.

This was an optional cut scene and not part of the main story -- my friend found this, I never got this cut scene when I played.
I agree that Deus Ex 1 is so special that anything after does not compare. This does not belittle the sequels, its just that the original was so good.
- int_19h 10y ago"God was a dream of good government" is a very interesting idea to ponder.
- waldfee 10y agoThis was the most memorable dialog in the whole game for me. An incredible game with many things that make you think. Also: "everytime someone talks about DX1, someone else will install DX1 again" most likely applies here :)
- sundvor 10y ago"Some people just don't understand the dangers of indiscriminate surveillance" @1:24. This games was so ahead of itself.
