nigga, mankind divided is longer than human revolution (plus its a better game)

>>724010867 (OP)
should have bought it harder chuddie. you either go cowadoody sales or you go home

Mankind Divided Pt. 1 has possibly the least compelling narrative in the series, and so it doesn't matter to me that I've missed out on it's epically bland conclusion. Just enjoy it for the gameplay and atmosphere. It has no other level.

>one of the best vo's in the series
>Replace him with someone who sounds like a cartoonist version of the original
Why bring him back at all? Why not just say he got assassinated by the illuminati?

It was in style at the time, kiddo.

>>724010867 (OP)
okay but what the fuck did they mean by that?
this shit is not even a theory, bug, or coincidence

>ADAAAAAAAAM is gone
>Everyone is too braindead because they somehow miss the Mankind Divided BLM is explicitly a diversion from the real ilumenerty goings on
>times have changed enough that they wouldn't get away with half the shit they could before
>dangerhairs would have been writing the story most likely
You know what? I don't care, call it cope. It's better it stays dead at this point. Best we can ever hope for is a fan continuation because at least one VO would probably unironically do it for cheaper just due to loving a project like DX.

Time to replay Human Revolution

mankind divided can last 5 hours to 100 hours dpeending on how you play it. if you want to see content and probably do a second run 100 hours easy (not coutnring the wierd virtual thingy mode). if you blast everything with a shotgun without giving a fuck in easy then in 5 hours you llbe wow that shooting game sucks

>"the game is getting too big, lets split it in two parts"
This didn't happen. What happened is
>"we got word from Square that they got the rights to make an Avengers game to chase that Marvel Cinematic Universe money. Now we have to pull resources from Deus Ex and put them toward Avengers since Square thinks that will make them more money. Guess that means we'll have to also scrap the last third of our game since we just don't have the resources to do all of that and meet our deadlines"

>WHAT THE FRICK! WHY DOES IT END ON A CLIFFHANGER?? IT'S NOT LIKE THIS WAS INTENDED TO BE THE MIDDLE PART OF A TRILOGY OR SOMETHING! THIS MOOBIE BAD!!
So, anyway, back to Mankind Divided.

I replayed this game like 5 times and i still dont know how this speech aug works

When they talk about certain stuff, the Alpha/Beta/Omega lines will fill depending on what type of stuff the person is saying.

For example if someone is saying stuff that shows they're insecure, the Beta will light up during the convo. Then the person will start saying some Omega shit (again, bars light up) so you'll select Omega. It's a tiny bit wonky, but more or less that's how it operates.

>>724018771
that is exactly why you don't end games on cliffhangers like that if the follow-up titles aren't guaranteed. what are you even fucking arguing for? it's okay the ending sucks because they were going to make a follow-up (but didn't)???

>>724010867 (OP)
Kinda surprised they didn't attempt to capitalize when Cyberpunk's hype was at its peak

>>724018801
>that psychological insight
That explains so much

I only played it for the first time recently. Possibly the most overhated game ever. OP is right to be annoyed that there wasn't a conclusion to the story but the game is great and better than HR. Great DLC too.

>>724019525
Wasnt the Deus Ex franchise sold to some chinese megacorp or something?

>>724019560
It isnt even hated. It just flopped.

>>724010867 (OP)
The only canon Deus Ex game is Deus Ex. Everything else is fanfiction. You can't change my mind.

>>724014426
Because Pangaea flooded. Sarif is a double, the Jense we play as is a clone and double.

>>724019883
I just did.
You now think Invisible Wars is an underrated masterpiece and will make a 3 hour long video essay about it.

just finished a replay plus dlc, i guess nobody played the dlcs because every single cheevo was gold. i remember it being a lot bigger and more intricate the first time.

>>724011815
This, my average 100% completion of HR is around 27 hours, Mankind Divided is around 38 hours. The problem is that the pacing of Mankind Divided is absolutely fucked.

>>724019560
levels in HR are much better (prague initially is cool but once you do most of it early on, it feels a little empty/bland), the story in 1 is much more compelling, i think i prefer the music in the first. the side missions in MD (it's been awhile) i think were a bit more enjoyable. combat in MD is much better, even if i usually just stick with stealth anyways.

both still great games, and maybe it's a bit of nostalgia talking but i'll always love running around detroit more than prague.

>>724018801
count the amount of times the things flash, whichever one flashes most is the one to pick.

>>724017029
>>>times have changed enough that they wouldn't get away with half the shit they could before
remember when there was a big stink about how they have "digital apartheid" in the game kek

>>724010867 (OP)
fuck square enix

>>724018521
Its so much worse than that, they were told specifically to support the efforts made for CD's avengers game, Finish up what was left of Shadow of the Tomb Raider(which also was allegedly unsuccessful) and then on top of all of that create a guardians of the galaxy single player game to go alongside the CD avengers game that everyone hated which inevitably led to no one playing guardians because everyone assumed that it sucked like avengers even though it was all around solid. Then instead of actually taking accountability of pulling every single one of their western studios off of their original course, they sold everything to THQ Nordic who then imploded because Saudi Arabia didn't want to buy them out. I FUCKING LOVE CORPOS.

>>724010867 (OP)
The fact that Square canned Deus Ex to give more resources to a fucking Avengers live service flop is proof that we are on the worse timeline

>>724011112
it was a very in style haircut around the time Human Revolution came out in 2011 and they just kept that same hairstyle for MD.

imagine what could have been if it didnt have forced multiplayer

>>724018801
what does that mean exactly about omega males? that they are immune to sucking up or what?

>>724020504
I genuinely don't. Would love to see some archived period media about this. Anything about any based game, really.

>>724021672
they dont think anyone actually likes them

so omegas cant be charmed thus making them smarter than betas and alphas?

Just wanted to say that I got the Guardians game for like $3 on a Steam Sale and it was fucking rad

>original game is relatively grounded
>cities look like current-day cities except with security robots and some people have robot arms
>fits perfectly with the lore and the atmosphere the game is going for, it's been nothing but stagnation and decay for several decades
>every other game in the series including the prequels looks like it takes place 100 years in the future
This is my one problem with the jensen games. Invisible war was too futuristic, society collapsed but at the same time somehow progressed a century in less than 30 years? Alright fine it takes place in the future if it's only 20 years whatever. But the prequels are set BEFORE the original and they look like they're set in the 22nd century or some shit.

What are some good soundtrack kinos like this and HR? I loved the mysterious sci fi feel of the osts. I listen to this on my wagecuckie job

>>724023250
This would be more of a problem if the new style sucked but HR and MD look amazing. And they both still have a bunch of non-futuristic urban areas

It's longer but less things happen.
