Deux Ex: Human Revolution review


My thoughts on Deus Ex


Well finally I was able to just start playing yesterday (the whole day through). And my very first impression was 'boring'; but it gets better with the time. So now I'm past the first Boss encounter and now the games is becoming real fun.
The whole game feels a little bit like FPS-Mass Effect with some elements of Fallout, Bioshock and Splinter Cell - so it must be fun at some point.
The story isn't bad, but it could be a little bit more thrilling or more dramatic dunno - even though I'm not that type, but I think it lacks some emotions. The gameplay isn't really new, so you get used to it quickly; shoot peoples head or sneak behind them, then trigger 'Q', hide bodys, job done.
That's about the most negative I could find + two bugs (a corpse and a basketball fell through the ground).
What I really like, is the dialog system! You wont believe me, but it's somewhat better than Mass Effect for example. In most situations you can actually controll the conversation and you can't just make good(blue) and bad(red) decisions - you really just make your own decision.
What's almost better is the difficulty! I really love the difficulty - I heard it fits your skills dynamically?! Not sure if that's true, but it feels like it. The first Boss encounter was really difficult but still wasn't frustrating. Maybe he was difficult because he had a gattling-arm and I was specialised on hacking?!
So, I'd say, go get the game - it's not ultra innovative but still pretty fun - and you can't tell that from the last games of this year!

  4. I'm a little behind, just started Fallout 3. If this game is anything like that, I'll probably check it out.

  5. i need to get this game. The original Deus Ex was one of the greatest pc games ever, and Invisible war was also damn good in my opinion

  6. It's great to me because it's an RPG too, not just a mindless shooting range.

  8. Alright, that might be enough to convince me to buy it. I hate the dialogue system in Mass Effect.

  10. I think people were scared after the failure they view Invisible War as, but they've not been that let down by this.

  11. Sadly, I only play computer games when I'm trying to impress guys.

    ...Yes, it's pretty sad.

  14. Nice review.
    Is it anything like the first one? I remember that I loved it when it was announced, one of my favourite games.
    Kinda scared to play this one though due to fears of it ruining the nostalgia
