I agree, actually. Of all the games that get hit with the FPS/RPG label or even just first-person RPGs, Deus Ex handles it the worse. Sadly, most other games don't have a tenth of the rest of the game.

Confession: I played it back in 2000 but lost interest after the prologue with the statue of liberty. Still haven't played any more of it.

If you don't like Deus Ex you probably played it too late. It has a lot of unbalanced mechanics and issues which weren't noticeable at the time, and a lot of the innovations and storytelling aren't as unique as there were back then. Still my second favourite game of all time after Thief Metal Age.

This isn't even a bad thing for me like it is for most people. I had most of my fun in that game exploring, solving puzzles, finding items and finding ways through areas. Yeah the action is janky and poorly implemented but I didn't really care, I put most of my skills into exploration (hacking etc) and combat-wise just put all upgrades and points into the pistol and sword which made most enemies a breeze on normal.

It's one of my favorite games of all time. The only two problems it has is that there's one boss who is completely unbalanced for pure stealth builds and the lighting honestly sucks.

It kind of depends on the game. If the guards never ever wake up when they are knocked out (Deus Ex, Hitman games) then you might as well kill them. In MGS the guards can be noticed missing either way, I think if they find a dead body they will go on full search but if someone sleeps then they will just wake them up and tell them not to sleep. I could remember this wrong tho. It's mostly just about roleplaying.

I don't know what v(r) thinks about Splinter Cell Blacklist, but I liked the playstyle points there the best so far. You can go Ghost as in don't even touch anyone, in Panther you will eliminate everyone on the map stealthily or in Assault you go for front door attack.

JRPGs have the problem of being trivially easy, but filled with content. Deus Ex's gameplay is relatively unintuitive and takes a couple of hours of playtime to learn.

The moment when you lose all your hardware and start to piece your progression recource-starved in a puzzle sort of way was the moment when the game opened up from a brand new perspective, not to mention the sheer ridiculousness of the level location itself and ensuing plot development anticipation. I do like nonlinear and exploratory levels the most, such as ny powerplant and versalife labs. Hong Kong was also quite cozy, although very short if you don't get sidetracked on searching out its secrets. And lategame gets blurry on my memory, might be in part with how deeply it plunges itself into conspirology without any new tricks and distractions.

guys, is there an alternative rifle in the deus ex demo that cuts out before hong kong? I played that mistakenly as a kid and distinctly remember finding a different type of rifle in hell's kitchen.

I don't want to replay the thing all over again but it looked like a ump and had better base stats than the original rifle. I can remember for certain that it was after a door behind a complicated locking mechanism. I think this is on the ground floor of the building you have to activate where WS phones you when you do?

I never actually used it, because I didn't want to ditch the weapon I had just spent all my upgrades on

Continue to play your gay ass peepee game because it had haha funny punch animation and le ebin super hero falling animation. This isn't even talking about the atrocious story or characters that lack any personality except being homosexual or retarded.
The game shouldn't even be called Deus Ex it should be called "French Faggot Future" the developers clearly had no intention of making a Deus Ex game and wanted to use the name to sell more titles to poopdicks who never played a DX game before but think it sounds cool, in other words a poser.

The "aliens" in Drowned God are real Anunaki, so they're not like the Sci-Fi Greys of Deus Ex. Anon is pulling your chain. Grey aliens are space travelers that the counter culture drummed up to look the way they are. Anunaki were real extra terrestrials who lived/ruled over man 10s of thousands of years back. I think that anon believe both situations are fabrications so he thinks Drowned God's interpretation is cooler.
