People have been talking about this game my whole life and, Im finally going to take the time to try it since I just got it in the steam sale. Also recently many references are being made to draw parallels our current situation many people state that this game “predicted everything!”.

Any tips, tricks or external mods I should know before getting into it that will improve my experience or should the game be played as is? for reference I just purchased the Deus Ex GOTY edition

what do you rate this game overall? If I enjoy this game, are the sequels worth playing? If so which ones? What would you rate the sequels?

Spoilers are “okay” if they are required to answer any of my above questions but try to keep them minimal or at least tag the comment with a Spoiler warning. general discussion is okay too! Thanks for your input!

    I’m asking for everyone’s ted talk on the game, this was more than reasonable lengthwise.

    I usually skip tuts so again this was very helpful. not sure what Is meant by the swimming comment but I’m guessing that’s an inside joke Ill understand later. my play style Is usually exploration and movement based. I’m always looking for nooks and crannies for bits of lore or resupplies. from what you said I might have to put in multiple play-through to really get the full experience, as well as trying your modding suggestions.

    there is definitely something to be said about nostalgia goggles but to be honest going back and playing the games from my childhood (and older titles like this) there’s just something missing from modern gaming that makes it feel mildly soulless. my next game on my backlog is Thief, and I just recently replayed the original Half-Life so All aboard the nostalgia train. o7

    I appreciate your input on the more recent titles. Im even more skeptical now since a fan such as yourself hasn’t felt the urge to continue the series the game probably stands on its own, and any addition may hinder or sour the original experience.
