Heh, some of that was from their DXHR advertising.

 

And yeah it's good they're covering the end of DXHR instead of ignoring it.

 

And totally worth giving DXHR a shot. It's a strong aesthetic so holds up quite well still (like, fuck the ceilings are soooooo gooood*). I tried Deus Ex, but it's clearly not aged well mechanically. Also there's the Directors Cut out which tweaks the game (though jarringly dumps "Missing Link" in). I think I've done DXHR like four times now and I think my first two shots through were almost one after another. It's about 20-30 hour range and frequently in sales (S-E have quite frequent sales on their site).

There's conversational boss battles, it covers what'll be a realistic debate at some point in the growing transhumanism movement, the aesthetic is fantastic, and while essentially there's only like ...2-3 main "levels"(I believe Eidos refer to them as "hubs") in the game you have plenty of exploration throughout them and there's a nice little world, and a hint of conspiracy throughout (also there's cited medical journals throughout the levels which I only recently found out are totally legit pulling from published papers n not made up like the newspapers).

 

You know I've written this and then I'm like "I feel some deja vu here" and what do you know:

Prague gameplay demo, seems fairly early on (I'd guess there's a prologue of sorts before this)

 

They've also announced Deus Ex: GO

 

Seems like the other GO games, but with hex layout instead, and they're gonna push out a puzzle maker too.

 

Also doing a clothes line n such, and also prosthetic limbs. Cos that's a thing you do, sure.

Hmmm. I might need to clean some stuff of my SSD, but I think I can make 45GB work. Once I finish and remove Human Revolution and Doom, I think I'll be set.

 

I've decided I'm going to try mostly stealth and non-lethal combat for my first run. Human Revolution ahs been fun to play that way, though I have occasionally had to straight shoot a fool in the face on occasion.

My CPU is midway between the two, but everything else I'm set for recommended.

 

*Edit - I really need to start looking at upgrading my CPU/Mobo, but lets face it, there's a not-insignificant chance I'll end up buying an NX despite all my protestations.

I made the same mistake with Paul in the original Deus Ex. Something something can't get fooled again. I didn't know for sure I could save her but I figured there had to be a way, so I kept reloading until I managed to win the fight. It was particularly annoying on my non-lethal replay last year. If she doesn't show up at all in Mankind Divided, I'm gonna be pissed.

I'd say it's weird there's no save import but I guess the dirty console peasants are left out of luck on that one.

 

Storywise she's unlikely to show up purely cos she works for Sarif and Jensen no longer does. Pritchard might pop up maybe in some capacity (I hope so. I felt they had an friendship going on).
