On the bright side, Deus Ex: Human Revolution, while largely a different dev team was a fantastic game and scratched the itch for me when it came out. One of the few games in the last 15 years I’ve actually played to completion.
- cheeseomlit 1y agoSame, I had zero expectations for HR and was very pleasantly surprised. Realistically it's probably the best follow-up to the OG that we'll ever get
- SJC_Hacker 1y agoIt had some cool mechanics but was pretty meh on the storyline. I didn't really feel a connection to the characters like I felt with the original Deus Ex. Except maybe copter pilot girl
- fluoridation 1y agoEh. It didn't really feel like Deus Ex to me, spiritually. I think Prey (2017) hits way closer. I haven't played the System Shocks, so I don't know if they were aiming for that or for Deus Ex. I've heard some people from Looking Glass went to Arkane. It seems like there's only 5-10 people in the world who know how to make immersive sims and keep making action RPGs where you can upgrade your body and have quests with multiple viable approaches.
- kridsdale1 1y agoPrey was excellent. I agree it was more like DX1 than DXHR but the latter is still excellent too.
- izacus 1y agoHuman Revolution and Mankind Divided have been fantastic, I agree. Unfortunate we're never getting a third.
