One of the best games of all time.
The original Deus Ex might just be my favorite game of all time, but I recognize it has aged poorly. People who didn't play it in its time might be turned off by its graphics, its AI or its clunky interface. But Human Revolution is in a sweet spot that allows me to recommend it to everyone. Graphically, still looks mostly fantastic due to its focus on art style rather than photorealism (the one negative being the cutscenes, which are prerendered at what even back at launch was too low resolution). The AI has been improved quite a bit (though it's still a bit easy to exploit once you become familiar with how it works) and the interface is much better. The gameplay, thankfully, remains just as good, if not better than the original. Like in the first game, you are an augmented human, with abilities beyond normal men that allow you to perform amazing feats. These abilities are unlocked and upgraded with experience points, and while it's not possible to unlock them all in one playthrough, you can easily play to your strengths. Freedom is at the order of the day. You can choose the stealth route, making your way by hiding, hacking and controlling from the shadows, which nets you more experience to unlock more abilities or you can play this like a FPS, mowing down enemies and using force to infiltrate, which nets you more ammo. You get less experience in this path, but since there are less abilities focused on gunplay, this is not a problem. Missions can also be completed in different ways. Regardless of your chosen way to play, you can find different ways to infiltrate or reach your goal. You can use force, stealth or even dialogue. And while at launch boss fights were a sore spot, since they forced gunplay on you, they've long since been patched and now you have more options to deal with them. There's a couple of DLCs included here, and they have been woven into the story, somewhat successfully. Trust me: it's a game you'll replay many times, like the original.
