People have been talking about this game my whole life and, Im finally going to take the time to try it since I just got it in the steam sale. Also recently many references are being made to draw parallels our current situation many people state that this game “predicted everything!”.

Any tips, tricks or external mods I should know before getting into it that will improve my experience or should the game be played as is? for reference I just purchased the Deus Ex GOTY edition

what do you rate this game overall? If I enjoy this game, are the sequels worth playing? If so which ones? What would you rate the sequels?

Spoilers are “okay” if they are required to answer any of my above questions but try to keep them minimal or at least tag the comment with a Spoiler warning. general discussion is okay too! Thanks for your input!

    does the story and game play make up for this shortcoming? also with that in mind would it viable to play a full run and gun play through on my first go of that game?

      The issue is more that the regular mission gameplay encourages stealth and nonlethal takedowns. And does so exquisitely.

      Then all of which are completely useless against the bosses.

            Is that also true for early game? other players were calling it borderline impossible without proper weapon skills and even then the early game makes it difficult

            Edit: im dumb. I replied to this thinking it was a stand alone comment in my replies inbox… my bad for the confusion.

            I might just get Human rev as well, people seem to generally enjoy it. even if its not as good as the original.

              This thread was talking about Human Revolution, which is the third Deus Ex game and a prequel.
