thoughts about deus ex goty

K.

Did you finish the game? How long did you play it?

I haven´t finished it yet but i understand why they say the game is good. It has great music, it has good mechanics in general except for some things like needing to remove al equipment from a body to be able to grab it, good story.

But the game is old and you can feel it when you play, but that is to expect it. Level design is good but has a lot of squares (engine limitation), animations are simple, voice acting is robotic until you get used and the game has the tendecy to throw you around from place to place. The AI, at least on normal is not very smart and tranquilizer darts on the crossbow is quite anoying (making the enemy run around for 5 minutes).

The game is not perfect in todays eyes but is still good. I also like DE: HR quite a lot but it has his weaknesis too.

I liked what i played so far, but it is an old game and you acn feel it.

Heheh, you almost got me OP. Good work.

That's mainly because this is not doom, so i don't blame you if you find it boring for having a story :).

I've played 36 hours of it without finishing it and I think that it's an awesome game, one of my favourites. It's a beautiful blend between my two favorite genres. Of course the new one came ~10 years after the original one and it's been acclimatized for the new players.

3 hours played, LOL.

It's one of my favourites, and I only played it last year, so I don't just have nostalgia for it. It's notorious for having a slow beginning though. Get past the beginning and you should have a great time. Make sure you're actually using stealth though, as the game is WAY too hard without it. Try to go for a no-kill run too. That gives the game even more depth.

I started Deus Ex 3 times before I managed to get past the first mission without getting annoyed.
Nowadays I consider it as one of the best games of all time.
Like many good things, it starts a bit slow but pays off to patient people.

I understand why many people don't like the game, but for some other, it's a really great game. I love RPG's, and I love FPS's. I also love stealth games, so, deus ex was a perfect combination for me. The gameplay its good (besides some bad hitboxes), the story is great, spent 31 hours playing it (the second time, the first was on a pirate version). 1.88€ was it? That's a steal for how good the game is.

Its's nothing special, really

Not all games are for all people; and that is okay.

lol only 3 hours of play

The way you've written that sounds as if you just don't like RPG games (comparing it to Duke Nukem, Quake etc). Deus Ex is unique in so many ways, I can't even begin to describe how much I love the game. Warren Spector, the mastermind behind Thief, Deus Ex, and System Shock, is iconic in the RPG world. The gameplay, soundtrack, story, and characters all pulled me into the world of Deus Ex and I've been playing it on and off for 6-7 years now. For me, Deus Ex isn't just an FPS-RPG game, it's something more.

Legitimate question: How old are you and what are some of your favorite games?

Today I found out that you can use random junk you find everywhere in this game as improvised non-lethal weapons. Awesome! Can you do that in Human Revolution? Tempted to reinstall just to check.

Another Deus Ex thread and someone somewhere is reinstalling the game.
