Deus Ex™ GOTY Edition

I bought this game because I heard that Deus Ex series is quite good. I've never played thjs game before, so it has no nostalgic value or stuff like this for me. I actually haven't expected from this game such story. It is quite long and i have to say it's engaging, I wasn't bored playing, progression is good. You even have the influence on how some events will end up with your decisions, and you can finish the game on 3 different ways, so that's actually gread for a game from 2000. Locations are ok, most of the game takes place inside buildings, but they are quite complex and allow you to complete the missions with different styles. You can go rambo mode and shoot everything, you can move silently through vents and avoid enemies, you can hack computers and defences - it's up to you. I won't judge the graphics. I can't demand any breathtaking views from a 21 years old game. But it doesn't look ugly, it's just old. My only issue is that this game is insanely dark. As it is an RPG game, there are some upgrades available in a form of augmentations - nanotechnology that enhances your character. There are a lot of them so you can select wide range of skills which will fit your playstyle, but they are divided in a categories for every limb. And if you select one augmentation from a category, you won't be able to pick another one, so you will have to think what you will need. There is also good range of weapon upgrades, which are very useful. I went for an aggresive playstyle, exterminating everything i could. And I got frustrated with the fighting in this game. It takes long time to aim at something without top tier skills. NPCs run in some weird patterns (looks to me like not the best pathfinding), so you can shoot quickly at them because they are very hard to hit while moving. Hitting something in melee is almost a miracle. Best is to take down enemies from a distance when they don't see you with a headshot. Not a fan. It's good and fun game, but requires patience.

It's one of the greatest games ever made, there's not a single reason why you wouldn't play it. The controls might be a little clunky at first, but by the time you get off the first level you're going to get used to them.

i didnt buy this game here since i have it on steam but no matter who you are you MUST own this game

After you finish Deus Ex, you do not mind "bad graphics" in a game. I wanted to try other games like Thief, Hexen 2, Wasteland 2 or Jagged Alliance, but I could not, I thought it was because they were very old games. That was not the reason. I had to play Deus Ex first, it had to prepare me for that. Thanks to this experience I can give an opportunity to those other games, several of them already played, and of course, Human Revolution had to be there, Mankind Divided, not yet. DX has taught me that good games do not have to look artsy.

On W11 the game doesnt work. Tried everything,
