Maybe the greatest game in the series.

I was originally disappointed with this game compared to the first 2, but once I went back and played the Director's Cut I realized it was probably my favorite in the series. The polish and changes to the boss battles really made a difference. Also the removal of the yellow filter by unchecking post processing is great. Never liked the original look of the game, but without that it's actually aged really well. I've heard the game received a facelift since the original release, and I could believe it. I don't remember it looking this good. Get the Casie Aug early and use it to see your dialogue options, but don't use the phermones to force conversations. You can see the impact of your dialogue options and it actually makes sense like if you were having a real conversation with someone. There are multiple ways to get people to do what you want through conversation, not just right response / wrong response gate keeping. It feels like an actual detective story. With Sgt Haas at the beginning for example, you can bulldoze him to get what you want, leaving him hating you, or reconcile your past getting him to want to help you, or tick him off in a way where he won't help you at all. It needs to be played on Give Me Deus Ex difficulty. With so many options, the enemies need to be able to mess you up if you make mistakes and it makes more sense if you aren't OP compared to everybody else in the world.

Sci Fi at it's best

By far one of my favorite classics back from the Xbox 360 era, stands right beside Mass Effect for me. Expect conspiracy, stealth gameplay or guns blazing. Side quests are almost as interesting as the main quests. I could go on about it but hey! grab it on sale and try it out, if you like this short of games you probably won't be disapointed.

Return to form… largely

I don't want to spend forever talking about how much better this is than the second one. Instead, I’ll focus specifically on this game. Overall, this does not quite live up to the original, but then that might be just about impossible. It is overly streamlined; however, it hugely dials back that aspect from Invisible War. This definitely has the smoothest, most enjoyable gameplay of these first three. Haven't played Mankind Divided yet, so can't comment on that one. The first person shooting is greatly improved here. It's addictive whether you play it like that, or you go for stealth. Not quite as great as Splinter Cell Blacklist at balancing them, but much better than the ones before this one. The augmentations no longer all require you to activate them right when you need them. I do wish that I had not in a single playthrough been able to unlock nearly all of them. And if I play this one, which includes the DLC where you can also unlock several, I might be able to. In the first game it was literally impossible to access all of them, because every single time you got one, you had to choose between two different versions. For example the one for your feet would enable you to either run silently or run faster. Those are not the same thing, and which you choose greatly affect how you play, how you approach situations. In this one it's about how much effort you want to put into being able to unlock all of them, and you have some choice over which to unlock when. I appreciate that in 2013, a lot of people in the mainstream would simply not be open to how it was in the original. But I do think that the Goldilocks zone is closer to that than what they did here. Choosing to make this a prequel was quite clever and this notion of so much in the game being this is what the near future might hold is a very effective alternative to the original which was set further into the future. The cyberpunk dystopia feel is very much present and there is strong exploration of bigotry.

Deus Ex Human Revolution "Directors Cut"

One star because of freezes and crashes. Loved the original game--5 stars for that! Wanted to go through this game once again but my original DVD install was rejected by Steam after several attempts (I hate them--never again!) so bought the game there and it never showed up in my game library! So, I'm 100% done with them now! Hadn't been there in years and seems more screwed up than ever! The Peter Principle on parade! GOG is run so much better! So bought the DC version here and like others have said, it crashes on the first levels with takedowns and hacking attempts and none of my efforts to alleviate this has helped so far. Haven't been able to go any farther yet. None of my other GOG games has ever been this buggy. I'll keep trying just to see if I can fix it, but also see giving up and uninstalling as a very likely outcome. This version is just problematic! Hopefully GOG can go back to original version, which ran flawlessly on same machine. Good luck everyone!
