Awful Combat Holds Back Good Potential

Title says it all. The story is pretty interesting. The art style is pretty cool. The music is pretty good too. The big thing that kills this game for me is the infuriating combat mechanics. Once you actually have to start killing enemies to complete side missions or even the main game it falls completely apart. Not even the guns you can buy will help you. Enemies do not get stunned by any of your hits, they will hit right through your attacks. Oftentimes there are multiple enemies that will attack you at once, some of which have guns the majority of which are SMGS. You will die... a lot... forcing you to save scum. It's almost as if the game is BEGGING you to find ways to cheese the mechanics. I also think at least one of the questlines is broken (It's the one where you find Finch dead in the sewers, he's attached to at least 3 side missions and one of them is completely broken, unable to be finished, because I guess I did it in the wrong order).

Mostly good

Hacking is something I've seen people complain about but I never had any problem with it, it's pretty straightforward. The story is good with a bit of twist but it's not like you can't see it coming. The gameplay is overall decent with good characters and I got far into the game when I discovered that the game saves in the registry and I lost it when I reinstalled windows. Seriously, in the registry!? Who does that !?

A+

Smooth and immersive cyberpunk gameplay with a retro feel. The graphics are well-done, looking like a high-quality production from the 90s, and not just the lazy "slap some pixel art on it" you see in some modern "retro" games. Lots of sidequests makes it feel like the city is full of real people, and the story overall was interesting enough - somewhat predictable but with a few interesting twists. Part of me wished that it was longer (it all takes place in about ~10 areas of one single city, apart from a few special missions that take you to other locations then back again), but mainly that's because I enjoyed it so much. It's taken me just over 21 hours to complete, having done all of the possible sidequests as far as I can tell, and that's a pretty decent amount of content for a relatively cheap game. Overall, I do think the length was about right; enough to max one particular set of skills, but not enough to max all of them (which I find leads to a feeling of "nothing more to achieve" when it happens). I would recommend it if you like platformers and RPGs

Deus-Ex but Metroidvania

Who knew the spiritual sequel to the first Deus Ex would be a sidescroller.

Surprisingly Fun

I purchased this game a while ago while it was on sale. In short, DEX is an impressively immersive side-scrolling RPG game with cyberpunk elements, where you play a female lead in a futuristic setting. The world itself has a lot of depth to it, cross-referencing itself with an ample amount of secondary content that keeps you learning about the world and the NPCs around you. The gameplay itself can seem unimpressive, and appears at first like a standard fit for an internet flash game. But the difference here is the depth and amount of content that DEX contains. The leveling system is solid and balanced, offering different skill trees for different playstyles (Hacking, Fighting, or Shooting, among other secondary skill trees). There are stealth elements in DEX, but they seem almost entirely secondary to the other modes of combat. While the dialogue can at times be cliche or uninteresting, the writing is overall very good, and is more than capable of keeping you in your seat just to see what happens next. When everything is said and done, DEX is truly a great game. Personally, I find that it lacks any real or reasonable replay value (aside from the multiple endings), so you should keep that in mind when purchasing it.
