Pros
- Love the game so much. It still has one of the better stories out there.
- I love Deus Ex. It's a shame when people cant get over the combat. There is so much to enjoy about it.
- Deus Ex is really great, the shooting is a bit off till you get upgrades that make your aim very good, otherwise it's just sitting still and waiting for the reticle to close on the enemy
- I also played it for the first time this year. So glad you also enjoyed it! I know this is a cold take, but I consider it a certified masterpiece.
- Holy moly, I did not expect to enjoy the game as much as I did. For a first playthough, I found myself playing the game for hours and hours upon end. ... In general, while the voice acting may sound a little funny, the writing is absolut...
Cons
- The healing system, for example, takes cues from Deus Ex by differentiating between damage to different body parts.
- I did try deus ex and dishonored when they came out but gave up after a few hours.

not even an in-game notes section like Deus Ex had.
Conveying an entire city through a bunch of textured cereal boxes and a blurry photo of a skyline just does something for me, probably because it reminds me of Deus Ex, my favourite game of all time.

Deus Ex - Statue of Liberty
Just finished the original Deus Ex (via Revision mod, for ease of playing) and damn... they don't make 'em like they used to... Loved everything, from the depth of the skill tree and the variety of augmentations, to the sheer atmosphere.
