It is garbage but it's garbage I love
I liked Adam Jensen hopping around through vents like a cat and doing takedowns. It's a better version of Stray where you play a tiger instead of a house cat.
Are you that anon who was ranting about the Jensen games in the last thread? Also, what parts of the lore does it shit on? And don't tell me it's because the game looks fancier compared to the original. I mean, actual retcons.
in the original deus ex augmentation was a rare thing reserved for the super rich and the special military guys. not even regular soldiers had them. in nu deus ex every homeless person is half cyborg. and the game takes place before the original but the augmentations are much more high tech and sleek looking
Nano augs are rare and expensive
mechanical augs are cheap and not as good
This was in the first game anon
Gunther's whole story there is basically 'reeee the new nanos are gonna replace me'
He was one of the last mechanically augmentated people on the field anon
My point is that by the time DX happens, it's the timeline going from mechanical augs to nano/cyber augs
exactly, and HR takes place like 20 years before the original and everyone has sleek iphone augs. nobody looks mechanicals until MD oddly enough, they did make the augs a lot more mechanical in that game

Because most of them have minor augs?
It's like tattoos anon
Some people have them.
Some people have them in places you can see and some can't
Why is this so hard for you to understand? Mechanical augs aren't like fricking dr octopus from spiderman

Except this isn't true, you visit the places in the world with the highest rates of augmented people, and the majority still aren't augmented.

In original DX the Barwoman in NY had augs, the weapon dealer guy in the black market had them, Gunther who was just a swat guy received them daily.
i think you missed the point that the people with Mechanical augs were in the majority of the time, people who were essentially required to for work (with the caveat that they would be put into a mortgage to pay for it along with also needing a life time subscription to pay for anti rejection drugs). they really hammer this down in the last level where all of the workers that go nuts were required to be augmented as a matter of policy. as a result you were essentially indentured to your job, and being fired had more consequences then just missing rent. hence the homeless being augmented, they are former corporate workers.
Now?
Last I saw a majority of posts here shitting on it was the time between announcement and "leak".
Following the "leak" and Ganker getting filled to the brim with gifs of Jensen b***hslapping hookers its been pretty universally loved.besides the boss fights and press-button receive-ending in the full final release.
they were when it came out. then it died down and the game was forgotten. only recently have i started seeing people bring this turd up again, and it's from cyberpunk 2077 (kino) haters.
it was OK. the boat DLC was total fricking shit though, actually both kinda suck ass and ruin the pacing of the game so I'd recommend getting your hands on the non-director's cut if possible. I feel like the game railroads you into a stealth/nonlethal playstyle also which is another downside, the "boss" fights are just plain stupid as shit too but overall the game has its moments, especially storywise. Havent played MD so no comment there, but its clear that SE barely knew what the frick they were doing with this IP and I'm glad someone else has it now.
tl;dr, its not great, but not terrible.
Probably because some e-celeb Youtube made a video about how its actually a masterpiece or some shit. That's how these homosexuals get their opinions. It's why there were a ton of Kane & Lynch 2 threads for like a week straight and now they're all gone.
Whenever you see some old game gets lots of threads in a short amount of time its because a new video of some e-celeb released.
>now
what? I remember at release when I was in high school people were saying this was one of the best games ever made. I didn't know shit about Dude Sex back then (still don't) but the point is that's just what I heard and I have no idea how credible any of those people were or if they were even fans of the original couple games.
wow its another i hate x and have an opinion thread
dont you guys get tired of making thread after thread of hating something? do the teenagers here dont understand that this process being repeated for years changes your brain?
this obsession over the need to make shit threads like these will make you an eternal virgin without friends, and OP sucks wieners by the way
Why are you even here? Don't you get tired of making comments hating on other comments? Is your bain damaged? Are you an eternal virgin without friends? But most importantly; do you sucks wieners and would you suck mine?
As a stand-alone game, it's ok. Bossfight sucks. Takedown animations take a thousand years to finish, which also sucks. The DLC shoved in the director's cut was really awkward, almost felt like playing a different game.
Narratively it's not even close to OG DE. Adam kinda sucks. His girlfriend sucks. His boyfriend (the hacker guy) also sucks. Dialogue was horrendous. You "debate" the big bad, basically an old man throwing a tantrum because he can't play with the hottest new toy, is ridiculous. Adam has Hatsune Miku thirsting over his dick for some reason. Also Bob Page at the end as the obligatory "I REMEMBER HIM! I KNOW DEUS EX!" was disgusting
>Also Bob Page at the end as the obligatory "I REMEMBER HIM! I KNOW DEUS EX!" was disgusting
Bob Page was in the intro, as were other Illuminati members, and the Illuminati are key to the plot.
It was a meme at the time. It also helped that the devs pandered to Ganker and made that dude wear a Ganker hat and put a lot of Ganker memes like forever alone guy in it.
The game is fricking trash outside of voice acting, but for whatever reason people defend the shit out of this shit. Shows how few people ever played the original.
>about to shittalk this anon because Gankers been in games for fricking forever >"bf3 directly called out Ganker...for not having a girlfriend, in 2011, that had to of bee-" >look up human revolution >both released within months of each other in 2011
>It also helped that the devs pandered to Ganker and made that dude wear a Ganker hat
You mean the moronic pussy that swears he'll make you pay for taking his autopsy report without paying and does absolutely nothing?
Seems like a chantard alright, incredible delusions of grandeur
I think both the original and HR are great, though I don't really think of them as being in the same universe even though some of the character are in both. IW is okay with the fanpatch, but the story still sucks. I won't play MD.
>I won't play MD.
Imagine falling for what morons who've never played the game say about it. On the off chance you were just against how Square Enix did preorders, then you'll be happy to hear that Square Enix no longer owns the Deus Ex franchise.
>Be Hong Kong police officer >Working beat shift >Suddenly a fat Chinese woman's corpse falls from the sky and impacts on the pavement >Soon after a man in a trench coat leaps from 20 floors up and lands on her corpse >"What a shame", he says. >Shakily draw a pistol and shoot him in the knee >He fricking detonates
Actually it's the opposite, everyone on Ganker loved it after the beta version leaked and it's been being praised for years. Only now are no taste morons like you shitting on it.
>why do i see people now praising DUES EX human revolution
HR has its problems but its been a Ganker favorite since the leak. People were obviously hesitant to look forward to a Deus Ex game made by non-Ion Storm staff in Canada, especially without dumbed down AAA games were getting in that era, but Human Revolution turned out really good all things considered. That leaked version of the game got Ganker from pessimism to hype-train mode.
Played through Mankind Divided again recently, I had a lot of fun. I bought HR on my Series S because I remembered it being pretty fun, but not only does it look like dogshit the V Sync is a fricking joke.
Apart from marriage DXHR was the biggest letdown I witnessed in 2011. But yet - just like System Shock 2 - everybody pretend to be a huge fan of the series even though they both were big commercial flops. So why didn't these so-called fans bought the games at release then?
Are they lying for street creds or is this an old is good mentality like /v is suffering from?
Truly pathetic.
First Deus Ex was a flop due to Romero being an absolute c**t with his half of Ion Storm which put everyone off from buying it after Daikatana pissed everyone off
It was the Xbox360 era, people were just shocked it wasn't an utter abortion that spat on the original game so it got massive affirmative action points
When I played it in 2016, I enjoyed it. When I replayed it in 2021, I did not like it very much. It's flaws were very apparent, from the level design with a bazillion doors that didn't open, linear ways in and out of zones, boring story (excluding some parts like the hive with tong and his daddy, the ship was pretty cool as well), and some other elements. It was a very piss poor attempt at revitalising the deus ex ip. The main character was good, and I loved his pilotfu, she was very cute. I haven't played MD bar the first hub.
>It was a very piss poor attempt at revitalising the deus ex ip
The choice of making a prequel still baffles me to this day, why? Did the world get destroyed on Invisible War, so bad that you can't make anything out it anymore? Or why don't you just do an alternate continuity, maybe HR happened in the Illuminati ending of OG DE or something. Why make a prequel that look like it's a 10 time more futuristic than the sequel?
>Did the world get destroyed on Invisible War, so bad that you can't make anything out it anymore?
Yes >Or why don't you just do an alternate continuity, maybe HR happened in the Illuminati ending of OG DE or something.
The ending as interpreted in Invisible War is that all three things happened to some extent. >Why make a prequel that look like it's a 10 time more futuristic than the sequel?
There is a lot of futuristic stuff in Deus Ex (Universal Constructors, artificial creatures, nano-augmentations, physical keys no longer existing, an underwater laboratory). The only difference is that the aesthetic does not look as far out, but in Deus Ex we a visiting the poorest areas, whereas in Human Revolution we are visiting some of the richest.
It was a passable Mass Effect knock off with a rather stellar presentation (past teh shitty introduction). The demo was leaked on here and everybody generally praised the reactivity of the world despite the generally subpar shooting and combat. It becomes pretty self-evident past the first few hours this all disapparates entirely. These reflect the same issues with the first game but it's held dearly on this board and people in general despite being kind of a fecal crumpet in the oven in most aspects.
Hating on the Jensen games is a dead give away you are a zoomer who didn't play the original Deus Ex.
Some of you won't understand what I mean by this... that's because you are a zoomer.
its garbage
It is garbage but it's garbage I love
I liked Adam Jensen hopping around through vents like a cat and doing takedowns. It's a better version of Stray where you play a tiger instead of a house cat.
just cyberpunk doom posters trying to prop up something to shit on another thing other than that I don't really see many praising it
human revolution was passable as a game, the stealth was laughable
its kino
>neo renaissance
No thank you
Cope.
All four fricking games suck ass
They all have the same fundemental flaw
>get seen
>go into a vent
>wait out the alarm
wtf this sounds like metal gear. maybe i'll like it
It's not as shit as MGS1-4
Nor as good as MGSV
The stealth is extremely fricking basic
You can also just go in guns blazing in HR and MD if you want
>The stealth is extremely fricking basic
That's all I need. How about the cyberpunk robot/android/whatever aspect? Is that part cool?
It's not suport unrealistic
You're not gonna see chicks that are 50% robot or anything but it's still good
That's good enough for me. Probably gonna download later and give it a play
Based. Have fun anon
wait one more thing do I need to play the other games to know the story oh FR or is it just minor references here and there?
>oh FR
meant to say of HR
Deus Ex HR is a prequel and it's sequel is Mankind Divided
So outside of playing HR before MD, no
alright thanks
The original, as in Deus Ex from 2000 has a free demo

Probably because some e-celeb Youtube made a video about how its actually a masterpiece or some shit. That's how these homosexuals get their opinions. It's why there were a ton of Kane & Lynch 2 threads for like a week straight and now they're all gone.
Whenever you see some old game gets lots of threads in a short amount of time its because a new video of some e-celeb released.
I don't think so just checked on newpipe and there's not a single one newer than 6 months other than worthless sub1k shit.
There've been occasional Kane & Lynch threads for years.

the sale went through you can stop making shill threads to make it seem relevant and keep the price pumped
Not everything is a fricking shill dude.
The newer Deus Ex games are as much masterpieces as the original. If you disagree you are just a homosexual.
wow its another i hate x and have an opinion thread

Wayne Haas. Best supporting character.
this whole segment was kind of bizarre
It was the first thing they recorded the VO for, so Adam's voice is really off.

Theres a lot to this game, way more than most.
It was okay, I think I liked the kino Wii U Deus Ex better though
Is Adam's hairstyle achievable IRL? He seems like a fashionable guy
Unkess you have a sculpted gigachad face like Jensen, it's gonna look shit, like pretty much everything else.
Yes, it looks dope.
hahahaha
Now I want a Deus Ex with an optional female protag so we can be told to stay out of the men's room.

Don't worry this is where he shifts goalposts to Mankind Divided
No, now I'll frick your mom while your dad is dilating.
Also I meant that the first DX being a flop, not HR.. Sorry
The FIRST Deus Ex was a flop because you didn't play it? It literally stapled the immersive sim into the gaming industry.
First Deus Ex was a flop due to Romero being an absolute c**t with his half of Ion Storm which put everyone off from buying it after Daikatana pissed everyone off
It was the Xbox360 era, people were just shocked it wasn't an utter abortion that spat on the original game so it got massive affirmative action points

There is a lot of futuristic stuff in Deus Ex (Universal Constructors, artificial creatures, nano-augmentations, physical keys no longer existing, an underwater laboratory). The only difference is that the aesthetic does not look as far out, but in Deus Ex we a visiting the poorest areas, whereas in Human Revolution we are visiting some of the richest.

I'm a zoomer and started with Human Revolution, yet it, the original, and Mankind Divided are all in my top 10.
Because it says deus ex on it, and you are supposed to like deus ex bro, it's like a classic or something
Its a fun videogame
