Deus Ex

Archive: 9 posts


Anyone else here appreciate the genius that is Deus Ex?

I swear, even over a decade later I'm STILL discovering new content in the game.

I love that game so much. I play it through every couple of years or so. 2009-11-07 16:31:00

I hate it. I bought it, tried playing it a few times and just kept getting killed after about 10 minutes each time so gave up and it's been gathering dust on the shelf ever since.2009-11-07 16:33:00

You're doing it wrong

It's not really an FPS so much as an First person RPG...

Also, his vision is augmented.

Stick with the prod

Lovely game, played it to death though and I can't see myself returning anytime soon.

Very true. You can't approach this game remotely like any other fps.

I FREAKING LOVE this game. I've had dreams about being in its world!

It's just such a progressive game, and considering where we're at right now with the FPS genre, in retrospect Deus Ex seems spectacularly ahead of its time. This is the type of thing we should be playing NOW, with all of the high production value of stuff like Bioshock.

Forward-thinking, amazingly immersive game.

It is amazing the attention of detail to the world, isn't it? And the options available... oh boy. It's got some issues sure, but in terms of concept, definitely way ahead of its time.

I hope the 3rd really does wonders. From what I hear, it should be great.

That's why I bought it. I love RPG's but absolutely loathe FPS's. I can't stand the view in FPS. I can never aim in time and trying to control the camera and aim at the same time just gives me a migraine. I thought this might be different but every time I tried to sneak through the first area I just got the crap shot out of me and never even saw where it came from.

That's kind of weird... what difficulty are you doing it on? Sounds like realistic where death comes pretty quickly...

On low difficulties the enemies are blind as bats, especially in the first mission where it's dark.

Sound is really important in the game... you can hear the people/bots around you from their walking and "barks" ... Bots always chirp "Scanning area" along their patrols... and people tend to say something when they think they see you .. "What? I think the law's on us!" ..... "Probably just a homeless person." hehe
