The Question IRL
Jun 8, 2013

Only two contestants left! Here is Doom's chance for revenge...

The gun looks like a replica of the pistol from Blade Runner. I don't think it is, but I am convinced it is a replica of a gun from some Sci-Fi property.

The metal thing in the bottom left is a Vajra Dorje, a Buddhist symbol. Which I only know because it was a thing on this season of The Good Fight. I don't believe Musk would be an ardent Buddhist.

I assume the Buddhist symbol is something Grimes left behind.

That's a gun from Deus Ex, right?

Edit: as in, it's a toy.

At first i thought it was from bladerunner or fallout, but I'm starting to think it's some mall ninja poo poo.

The gun is a replica from Deus Ex. One of the more recent ones.

Edit: at least I was sure it was, and so we're people in the comments, but on looking online it's got some differences. So maybe it is just some mall ninja poo poo which is even sadder.

Apparently it's from one of the new Deus Ex games. So it's not even from something even halfway interesting or conic.

I guess that's it.
The crazy thing is that it's not even an iconic or unique weapon in the game. Like it's a Magnum that could be in any of a dozen different properties. It doesn't stand out like the laser rifle or the PEP gun.

that revolver is so un-iconic to deus ex that I'm not surprised people ITT recognized it from TF2 first lol

I wouldn't be surprised if a ton of people who play TF2 don't even know its a deus ex gun

IIRC it's also the deus ex game where you have to stop the anti mecha-apartheid terrorists (the bad ones that go too far!!!). The game literally describes it in these words.

:thunk:

I think maybe the illuminati were egging them on as a false flag or something.

The handle is shaped a bit like the one on Decker's gun, that was where my mind went first too, but that could just be a common shape. I don't know guns. It doesn't look anything like it in any other way.

the illuminattie is at war with itself and trying to cover up a big gently caress up from HR so they are trying to flush mechanical augs in favor of more concealed poo poo amongst other poo poo. part of the big issue with mankind divided is its the literal first act of a much bigger game that square enix(the publisher) cut up into thirds because human revolution didnt make cod 4 money. they then sold the dev and the IP(the dev owns the IP) to make more NFT money.

The story on the Deus Ex prequals wasn't that great.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vYLEuQrvND0

Basically Square Enix got too much of their hands on the story and plot and it really shows, and not in a great way. Sad too because the Gameplay itself is great (other than the boss fights that you cannot escape).

That revolver was my favourite in HR and MD cause it made me feel the most like a cyber detective,plus you could mod the gently caress out of it.

And it was good for bustin’ down doors and causing distractions.
