Hell get in an elevator and Ridley will break open the nearby electronic panel, short-circuiting his old augs so he has to become the test subject for experimental nanomachine augmentation

Didn't it say that all the first subjects die immediately in some log in the original Deus Ex?

That's why he dies in the first 30 minutes and you play as Paul Denton for the rest of the game

Adam suffered severe cerebral damage from the panchea blast and his augs have to be turned back on slowly so his brain can adjust to them. This is the same excuse they used in HR for why he couldn't use all the poo poo he already had installed, because of the bullet that should've blown half his head off

Expect cameos of Deus Ex favorites such as:
Slightly Older HR tracer tong
Beth DuClaire
Stanton Dowd probably not fat yet
I swear to gently caress if they don't use bob page for more than one cutscene in this game.............. They had him in that stupid iOS game that no one played so hopefully he did that because he was recording a bunch of lines for this

Edit I forget his name but that guy who runs UNATCO was mentioned in several emails in HR so he'll probably be the Interpol director or some poo poo

This series is in dangerous jeopardy of the prequel being more advanced than the original ala starwars.

Or is this a reboot, which case they need to cut to the chase and do the Denton saga already

i finally played system shock 2 for teh first time in december and i have to say, holy mackerel, it was really spectacular. i played bioshock 1 afterwards which still felt like a great game but the sheer weird elegance of system shock 2's writing seems to be unmatched

I prefer playing deus ex non lethal up until the point of Paul dying, then after that you enter your dark stage of murder machine without paul as a conscience anymore.

Also Paul should always die it just makes the dark note of the latter half of the game all the more fitting

I like IW, but basically every thing you've heard about it is true. If you play as female lead non lethal it's actually somewhat of an ok game for the time in retrospect.

Yeah ss2 loving owns and there was a pretty long period where the game would barely even run on windows xp or some poo poo and it was annoying.

I am ok with combined ammo, as long as that means the game has 2 or 3 insanely crazy Hard Reset style guns that get mods installed in them so it's a combined plasma rifle/lightning mortar/railgun depending how much money you dumped into your gun.

Like maybe instead of a pistol, a tranq rifle, and a stun gun, you have all three in the same gun and they share ammo count, but not with your rifle or big gun ammo.

IW on PC is the most broken port I've ever seen of a game. Every time you hit a loading screen the game closes and launched a new executable because that's how the engine was designed

Not exactly. You encounter him at the end of the game no matter what, but the Templars were probably the closest to a straight-up villain. Naturally you can side with them, despite it making no sense.

my biggest hope is that there are no boss fights. i hated those so much. i almost quit at the stupid one with the guy who runs around really fast in the maze, but ultimately ended up beating it by bringing a hacked turret from the beginning of the level down the elevator and running past it a lot during the fight

HR was already a lot more advanced than Deus ex. They had jock fly some stealth helicopter and Malik had a cold fusion osprey
