Simply a great immersive sim
This is the 4th main entry in the Deus Ex series, developed by Eidos Montreal, also responsible for the excellent Human Revolution, previous game in the series. (I hope it's released here one day) The main plot of the game may seem thin, and I think you could almost resume it on a postcard if you write small. But you would be missing 97% of the game. The universe is rich and very well depicted : from dialogues you hear-pick between NPCs, e-mails you find by remorselessly hacking into peoples computers, to ads on the streets that play without shame on people's fear of augmented. There is great storytelling on all counts. New players can be a bit lost though: some plot points can be dark if you haven't read the novels (Icarus Effect & Black Light). There are also a lot of side quests, and none is poorly written. Some are waiting for you just beside the main quest but others will require you to explore the area if you want to find them. They all feature interesting characters, and immersive dialogue. In fact, dialogues are a important part of the game, and I found them very interesting. I played with English voices and French subtitles, and there were a couple of times where they didn't match, although both made sense. Curious :) As for gameplay, it's your choice. Go stealthy, hack your way through or just kill everyone. I played stealthy and I loved it, but either way, I advise you to take a moment to explore the environment. You'd be amazed at how many possible paths there are. And at how much stuff is lying around ; you can fell that characters live here (and rarely tidy their rooms). I spent hours exploring every nook and cranny (I loved it). The skill tree is not huge but there are some interesting new augmentations. A quick word about graphics : they favoured art direction over photorealism: an excellent choice I think. If you liked Thief, Bioshock and Dishonored you will surely like this. You can see it as a cyberpunk Dishonored with a lot more dialogue.
