Deus Ex thread. What are your honest thoughts on this game?
Please note that as DX was released for Windows 95/98, it is retro, as per the definition in >>>>1392415

honestly I thought it aged pretty poorly. I mean, where is the "play value"? it's just stale game cycles and fetchmania quests. Normally im not the type to say something has aged itself out of its original acclaim, but this is a poster child for that very idea.

Loved it and it changed my life. I started looking into what distractors call "conspiracy theories" and it all went kinda downhill from there.

All UE1/id Tech 3 engine games that can feasibly run on a system from '99 or earlier should be able to be discussed.
