I started trying to figure out different ways to do this because I was watching a 12 hour playthrough of Deus Ex Human Revolution on youtube. Took about 5 days until I realized I could do everything I wanted with clip-path.
Really hope we get a sequel to Mankind Divided some August, too many loose ends!
Thank you! :D
- yakshaving_jgt 7y agoI really hope we get a sequel to Deus Ex some day.
- IggleSniggle 7y agoJust in case you’re not aware (maybe you are making a joke?) the series consists of six games: Deus Ex (2000), Deus Ex: Invisible War (2003), Deus Ex: Human Revolution (2011), Deus Ex: The Fall (2013), Deus Ex Go (2016) and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided (2016). The original from 2000 is one of the most beloved games in the genre.
- asutekku 7y agoThe original games, how well loved they might be, are kinda awful to play on modern day standards though. I guess they are referencing how Mankind Divided ended kind of abruptly and deserves an sequel.
- yakshaving_jgt 7y agoNot in my opinion. I played through the original again last year, and enjoyed it just as much as I always have. The relatively poor graphics by today's standards don't bother me. People still love Casablanca. Nobody cares that it's in black and white.
- pbhjpbhj 7y agoThere have been a bunch of remakes of movies and games recently - some people care about the visual aesthetic enough to do that.
- yakshaving_jgt 7y agoYeah, I guess jokes don't always work in this format on the Internet. If I remember correctly, Invisible War was so bad that the entire team was fired. I've played the original several times. It's a classic. I wouldn't regard any of the supposed sequels as sequels. I played IW once. It was hot garbage. I haven't tried HR and beyond, but from gameplay videos it doesn't look as though they've captured the spirit of the original.
- IggleSniggle 7y agoHR is worth a play. Not quite the same thing as the original, but good in its own right.
- ehnto 7y agoIt's nothing like Invisible War either. I would consider Invisible War a bad sequel, while I would consider Human Revolution a spiritual succesor. Neither game is like the original but Human Revolution/Mankind Divided are great games in their own right (ignoring that Mankind Divided was cut short)
- NikolaNovak 7y agoHuman Revolution was my favourite, after the original. In terms of replayability, I come back to it more often. The atmosphere, particularly in Hengsha, were quite immersive. I would generally recommend it. Invisible War - some say nowadays it got more flack than it quite deserves, but I absolutely cannot make myself go back to it :< Mankind Divided - I'm halfway through, and quite enjoy it. I do understand that most people find it unfinished and short though. It does have a different vibe to original.

- yakshaving_jgt 7y agoI think it would take a much smaller game studio to properly do a real successor to Deus Ex. I can imagine it actually being better with a smaller studio. The people working on the new Baldur’s Gate. They’re a small studio. It wouldn’t work with EA or whoever.
- jimmychangas 7y agoTo anyone interested, this video touches on the greater themes behind the original Deus Ex, and may inspire you to play the game :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_CBF318nBY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_CBF318nBY
- ehnto 7y agoMe too, the story was building so well and the pieces of the puzzle were being placed down. Then they threw half the pieces away and the game ended! I have read there might be a sequel after their current project, I am hopeful.
