Great sequel, almost unplayable thanks to numerous bugs. I don't know what the problem is, nobody seems to have solid answers, but this game will crash, get stuck and generally make your experience painful throughout, regardless of your hardware or settings. Now, I want to love this game. The actual gameplay is fanatastic, more of Human Revolution but just better in every way. However, I have had numerous crashes seemingly out-of-nowhere. It's gotten stuck in loading screens and perhaps the most annoying of all, no matter what I do, I seem to get stuck on every god damned stair, lip, edge, elevated platoform in the game. I have died several times because I couldn't get over a tiny little piece of flooring, was forced to jump and made too much noise. I want so desperately to love this game because the story, world, characters and gameplay are fantastic for me, I'll likely even finish it fully. However, I cannoy recommend this game to anyone who isn't commited to it including the bugs. It is infuriating. It's not my hardware (AMD 5950X, RTX 3090, 64GB RAM), no other game has done this. This game just appears to be a hot mess. If you're a die-hard Deus Ex fan, or even just a fan of this style of game and it's on sale, buy it. Otherwise, I'd stay away. It's just not worth the time taken from your life in frustration when you have to reload the game several times just to get past the intro cutscenes since they can cause the game to crash.
