- tpoacher 5y ago> The in-universe text in Deus Ex had such a profound worldbuilding influence on Truyens that he included its lead writer, Sheldon Pacotti, in Omnipedia. This just made me want to play this. Sheldon Pacotti is an absolute genius. I started reading his books after finding out he was the lead scriptwriter in Deus Ex, and they've been amazing. Having said that, the quote above is ironic, since Pacotti wrote the script, not the in-game texts. Those were written by someone else, whose name escapes me now ... On the bright side, I'll be remembering soon, since now that Deus Ex had been mentioned, I'll have to reinstall it again ...
