I never played the latest one, which may be for the best?
Me neither, I feel the same. I remember passin up DXMD on release to give it time. 7 years should be enough, right?
Hbomberguyβs video made me realize exactly why it didnβt feel that way to me.
All of the glaring issues are coming back vividly as I am watching this. I remember the frustration with the forced narrative. It was a decent looking game on release though, I do remember that.
And on the opposite end, if you wanted to be an efficient killer, the laser targeting system weapon modification with the sniper rifle renders the scope innacurateβand apparently it was never fixed, even in DXHRDC!
This was reported on DXHR launch... that's just nasty.
As an original Deus Ex player I really enjoyed the game and setting, but the endings felt so lazy and dumb to me.
I had the same reaction and I couldn't believe it. Of the original, the "easiest" ending made sense, and the other two were obvious strategic encounters with very different paths of engagement.
I couldn't bring myself to finish DXHRDC because I was certain that even after the additional strategies were added to the bossfights they wouldn't bother with endings. Maybe I'll go through it one day to find out.
...the outpouring of grief has been universal and completely undifferentiated, I mean, to be really crass about it, the thousand people who were killed areβalmost all of them are the kinds of people who you would see at a protest on a Saturday night. They're almost all leftist, they're almost all secular...
...people will be judging every move that the army makes and every move that the government makes: is it humane or inhumane, is it effective or ineffective, is it too weak; and they will be screaming one at the other, they will be dissatisfied, they will be angry, and then within the country as well it will not be long beforeβand in fact we have already begun to see some of thisβbefore some people in the government say, you know, the reason why Hamas launched a thousand people with handheld rockets and with automatic guns to go house-to-house and murder children and their parents is because those left-wingers who are protesting every week gave them the idea that we are weak...
That little guy? We don't worry about that little guy.
Usually.
