Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Director’s Cut

I have been a fan of DXHR and have replayed the game multiple times. As a new comer to the deus ex series, the plot was gripping and kept me engaged until the end. The gameplay immersion into a cyberpunk dystopia is fantastic. The only criticism I have is that the director’s cut tones down the yellow/gold shade of the game, which I feel is very characteristic of this game. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys a good story. (PS- I own this game on steam).

I have been playing FPS since the late 90's and have (unfortunately) steered clear of the Deus Ex series, because I found it to be vague in story and touching upon subjects which I did not find interesting in my younger days. Coming late to the game, and still not having finished the two games released before this one, Deus Ex - Human Revolution is easy one of the best FPS made. I played it on the hardest difficulty when starting a new game. The game has a slow start, but everything is perfect. You start with limited weapons and ammo and have to work hard, in order to get the stuff you like. The boss are tough if playing with a controller and the first boss was the one I struggled the most with, simply because I didn't have the weapons to fight him properly. The story is excellent, the level design is huge and excellent. The levels can be a bit confusing in the beginning, but after you learn them, it works very well. Overall one of the best FPS and a game like they don't make them anymore.

Can't believe how I never got into this series in all these years, this game has it all: - Great and consistent sci-fi/cyberpunk setting and plot with some good and subtle social commentary; - Well written characters, both the protagonists and antagonists; - Superb level-design, many ways to approach each situation; - Tools for all tastes, either if you are lethal or non-lethal; I really like how Jensen's skills tie so well with the environment he's in, you can: - Upgrade your arm augmentations so you can carry heavier objects (maybe putting one over the other so you can open new paths) or punch through certain walls; - Upgrade your lungs augmentations so you can filter toxic air and go through hazardous paths unreachable otherwise; - Upgrade your social reading skill so you can determine someone's personality and respond according to that in order to convince her (I had a lot of trouble reading through Taggart, hate that guy in particular, hardest person to "read through" in the game which makes perfect sense since he is an extremely cunning and perceptive psychologist); - Upgrade your eyes so you can see through always AND not be affected by flashbang granades. And I could go on and on, needless to say, loved this game.

I really enjoyed playing through this game it was my first experience with the Deus Ex series. I feel like the reason this game looked so good when it came out was the graphics were pretty consistent. They weren't the highest resolution graphics in the world but everything fit because everything from trash on the streets to main character NPCs looked good. The story is great and it's just a really fun playthrough. If you are hyped for Cyberpunk 2077 these games might help fill the hole in your heart lol.

毫无深度的对话系统（居然是对话顺序而不是对话内容去影响结果），割裂的章节设计（物品管理被章节设计推到了一个尴尬的境地），形同虚设的武器改造（融入rpg系统却没有把武器与人物成长有机结合），糟糕的优化（750TI全程遇到角色转向就开始ppt的体验），奇怪的AI设计（警局，懂的都懂） 特别一提的是所谓的多路线设计：自由，但又不自由。因为这些自由的路线都与个人的技能息息相关，技能不到位你就没自由路线可言。然而技能系统设计真的不是很出色（如果你想用致命武器那么只能低等级过关）。永恒之柱2的系统才应该套到这个游戏里来，甚至暴君的路线选择都比这个游戏强。提到沉浸感，不如上述的rpg游戏。 剧情由于糟糕的游玩体验我已经没心思去体会了。搞沉浸体验应该抛弃rpg升级系统和射击系统，做成observer那种。
