Gameplay videos by Gamespot look good. PC version doesn't seem much different to me, guess it'll be the ps3 version when I get it eventually. not now though !
Deus Ex 3
- Thread starter ninzel
- Start date
The original Deus Ex had pretty crappy graphics (Unreal Engine 1 in 2001). It's also one of the best games ever made. Of course, since the game isn't being made by the original Ion Storm team, I very much have a "wait and see" attitude. Only rarely is the resurrection of a dead IP by a new team any good or particularly faithful to the source material (Metroid Prime being one such example).
Your appointment with FEMA should be finalized within the week. I've already discussed the matter with the Senator.
The gameplay in Detroit makes me think of Vampire Bloodlines.
A good thing.Yeah, it's bit weird that it drains one of those batteries. But it's probably done to stop players from taking down all of the enemies that way. This forces you to use some proper stealth, unlike what apparently passes for stealth games these days. At least that's my experience so far, which is still very early on.
It reminds me a lot of playing MGS. One of my favourite games. Looking at the various augmentations, you could make it play very much like it.
I like that it picks up things I do. And getting dialog options that aren't Good, Evil, Clown.
I beat the first real mission. I tried being stealthy, and not kill anyone.
Storywise it's kinda cool how the NPC's respond to it. The additional reward is
I'm curious how things would have gone differently if I had gone in guns blazing. There are already some hints at things that may effect the game later on because of the way I played.
I saved the hostages, talked the leader out of killing a hostage, and let him go.
pretty weak. A discount at the gun shop.

Im playing through much more like Mass Effect than MGS, its cool that both methods are viable (outside of boss battles!). The different choices and ways of playing dont seem to effect the overall story itself much that i can see so far.
Yeah, the freedom of choice in terms of story in these types of games is often mostly an illusion. Having seen the pay-off of those things I mentioned earlier, it didn't change much. Still it's nice to hear the NPC's talk about some of the things you did.
I'm just past the first boss fight. If you can call it that.
It's very short.
About the mission before that.
I have to sneak all the way through gang territory to get to an antenna on the roof, only to have them get me out with a helicopter landing on the same roof. What was stopping them from flying me in there aswell?
Playing through the entire game with stealth in hardest difficulty, no alarms until now. I feel like I'm near the end but most of the time you can't really tell with these type of games. the problem is the boss battles, before you even fight the very first boss you know how many more times you have to go through a boss battles at the very least as the first level shows you exactly how many of those augumented supersoldiers exist, Which is why it becomes sort of a sequence, couple of short missions followed by a long one ending with a not so surprise arrival of one of the bosses you saw in the very first level. By the time you fight the last of the remaining bosses you know the game is coming to an end.
No glitchs for me.
Never having played any of the previous Deus Ex games I really had little idea on what to expect, but so far I like it quite a lot.
What I didn't expect was that the game would be so heavily mission based. I was under the impression that it would be some 'you vs. world' where you'd go from location to location fighting the odds, instead of the central hub and missions.
That kind of always kills the story for me, mission based gameplay, also I've found such games fail to hold my interest to the end.
At first I thought the game was basically like a new MGS (a good thing), but now I think it's more like a Splinter Cell.
