Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - Checking Out The Men In Charge: Joseph Manderley & Bob Page Cutscene

[@HistoMagouri]

So glad Cliff Stephens keeps reprising his role for the games after so many years.

[@scattysafari7742]

He has such a distinct voice. Makes me nostalgic for Deus Ex 1 all over again.

[@KingDaveth]

I'm really happy Bob Page's voice actor is the same, I can't imagine him sounding any different.

[@TheCulturalBomb]

The next Deus Ex should be HEAVY on illuminati related scenes and interactions and needs to bridge it to the original Deus Ex, ending Adam Jensen's story and setting up JC Denton.

[@DevilWolf000]

Actually the next game will be about the fall of the illuminati since Page starts his move with MJ12 taking over almost entire Europe and basically take everything from the Illuminati (They will be simply powerless against Page)

[@scattysafari7742]

Adam's ok, but i like JC better. He felt like a person with a SOH.

[@viewtiful1doubleokamihand253]

True. But I heard DE is currently on low priority list... Probably the sales weren't to management's liking... Which is really shit, because I still want Bob and JC to be voiced by their respective original actors... And you never know what might happen.

[@maydixon-yuras9927]

@@scattysafari7742 JC is alright but Adam is way cooler. The fact that the next game will be a direct sequel to MD is very exciting and i’m glad it’s under development

[@personwithdelta]

fun fact, this game takes place the same year JC Denton's born

"Born" meaning the fabricated birth date, not his actual conception.

I like Page's character design in this, he looks like a megalomaniac

[@MSMPlays-rc5sh]

His look reminds me of an older Tom Holland.

[@topy706]

game is amazing, but it feels like an appetizer for the third game

[@brianskibo2641]

totally agree

[@gambleanimations9174]

Well to be fair Mass Effect 2 felt like that as well.

Fourth game.Fifth,actually,but we don't talk about invisible war.

[@Interfector0]

Holy crap, Cliff Stephens is in fine form here. So glad they got him to reprise his role. And with modern graphics, Bob's expressions match his menacing voice. ...Damn, now I kind of want a remake of OG Deus Ex (though my computer probably wouldn't be able to run it).

[@SpectacleFilms1]

They should have used Simons instead of Manderley. Manderley was Simon's goon not Page's.

[@al-es6vn]

I 100% agree, i love simons

[@MSMPlays-rc5sh]

Simons at that time would be too young to be an influential official.

[@MSMPlays-rc5sh]

I think he would be hiding somewhere in the game.

[@devinthierault]

I expect Simmons appointment within the w...six months

[@diablocls55]

@@MSMPlays-rc5sh Simons was older than Page lol

[@Thedutchjelle]

Got to love OG's Deus Ex Area 51 theme being cued in here.

[@sunny_senpai]

But Manderley calling Page from a TF29 Neural Subnet is so careless.

[@bobpage6597]

Not strictly. TF29 is an Illuminati front anyway - and also, NSN records are supposed to be purged after every conversation. If my memory is working, there is an email on the NSN computer terminal just before you plant the whisper chip where one of the techs highlights a 'problem' with the system in that existing conversations not being purged from the system when they finish like they are supposed to be. Its naturally this 'problem' that allows Adam and Vega to dig into what was being discussed. In an 'ideal' world, they wouldn't have been able to find anything even with access to the NSN because the records were supposed to have been wiped when the call ended.

[@cr4yv3n]

That comical moment when not even the big bad knows "what the hell did you tell him?"

[@RevolverRez]

As neat as it was seeing Manderley and Bob Page again, the first game made it clear that Manderley was some patsy Walton Simons was using, I don't think he was ever important enough to work directly under Bob Page.

[@natanhale7680]

Probably he was demoted.

[@vicwaters87]

Patsy or not, it's perfectly conceivable that Manderley was Page's middle man with the council. He was still Page's underling, doing exactly what he was told without question, hence his apprehension at questioning Page's authority. Simons, in contrast, was Page's equal and not somebody who could ever be intimidated by anyone.

[@andrewroberts1258]

I think Adam Jensen is the real father to Alex and JC, father as in following in the footsteps of Metal Gear Solid with the whole using genetics to create clones, son of a bitch I love this shit

[@viewtiful1doubleokamihand253]

Same here :) Minus the most epically dramatic scene at the cemetery with the CQC hug. There aren't any news on the sequel yet... What a shame.

[@crumplepoint2712]

Maybe if he'd done those Hatha Yoga exercises, he'd have been able to progress.

[@yutro213]

Pff, he should try Ashtanga Yoga!

[@BorisMemedov69]

[@kateadams5574]

sadly I know of no way to replace young Manderley with a pidgeon

[@JackJonValois]

I love how they just skip through entire meetings of the illuminati just to see Bob page yell at a guy instead of seeing what debeers and everyone else is talking about.

[@125happyguy]

Adam was kind of pressed for time, so it's justifiable.

[@Metroid24242]

Wait I thought this was the TF29 NSN, and not the actual illuminati hub NSN area?

[@JackJonValois]

TF29 members work together with illuminati members maniplulating them without even knowing they are actually illuminati

[@RuberDildo]

That virtual space was the one TF29 uses, not Illuminati. The only reason why we saw Page in this is because Manderly called him from it. The rest of the people in the room are just TF29 heads, like Miller, from other countries most likely.

[@sunny_senpai]

Wow people don't even pay attention to the game at all, it's a TF29 subnet not the Illuminati's.

[@ManthonyHiggs]

I never liked manderley being "in the know" about the illuminati. He always seemed more like a pawn in way over his head during DX1

[@DefaultDerrick]

If you hack his secretary's computer in the first game at Liberty Island you'll find that he was involved hunting down the Knights Templar. Remember the gold that we later find from the Knights Templars in the cathedral? He was always working with the Illuminati.

[@magmad1ver]

It's a little too clear here that Cliff is a 60 year old man voicing a 39 year old. Anyways, with the presentation there's so much missed potential.

[@grognougnou]

In the OG Deus Ex and Human Revolution, Bob Page has red hairs. Wonder why they changed this in MD.

[@eatthis8924]

Plus manderley looks much younger here, in dx1 he's an old man with grey hairs, lol

[@jamieisjabba]

I love that background track, pity I can't find it... what a shame...

[@Argon314]

The channel "Gaming Ambience" has it! It's the one titled "Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - TF29: NSN Conference Room (1 Hour of Music)". Apparently it's used in the Breach mode of the game as well.

[@Nosttromo]

We got a problem. Miller wants to see a report on the break in. What break in? The one your San Francisco facility is supposed to have any day now WHAT? that shit got me giggling

[@stevenboddy4232]

Bob page is the hero. Tbh I really wish the studio stayed true to the classic story. I love Adam, but I wish there were more Easter eggs with scientists, tongs, manderley, the council. The few cut scenes don't do justice. And who TF is janus

[@AdamJensen_]

Adam Jensen is the hero. Bob page is just a megalomaniac dirtbag. That's why he gets GEP'd.

[@harizotoh7]

Bob Page is looking a lot like JC in here. Don't tell me they used Bob Page's DNA to clone him to make JC.

[@TheEssentialHughJazz]

I had always assumed JC was modeled off of Adam. Adam's own backstory was as a genetic experiment to produce a human without resistance to mechanical augmentations, as we learn in side quests in HR. Megan Reed sampled and experimented with Adam's DNA during HR, where he was registered in her notes as Patient X as early as her office at the start of the game. MD is contemporaneous with Denton's creation (2029) and in the VersaLife vault in this game there is a conversation between Reed and Page detailing her progress on DNA transcription experiments, of which the Orchid is a byproduct (denatures DNA without repairing it). It's possible that JC is Adam's DNA, reformatted with Megan's research to take his genetic compliance with augmentations and apply it to nanoaugmentations. This would also fit the theme of Deus Ex protagonists all being clones of each other.

[@viewtiful1doubleokamihand253]

@@TheEssentialHughJazz Makes sense. All that if left to make sense of is how 2020's look insanely much more high-tech then the very 1990's 2050's of the original. Not a big deal, it's just that I am still a bit pissy about certain artdesign choices on these prequel games.

[@shumanbeans]

@@viewtiful1doubleokamihand253 I'm not well versed on Deus Ex lore, but I believe there is supposed to be some kind eartquake-based cataclysm between these prequels and the original. Maybe that caused some kind of technological setback.

[@viewtiful1doubleokamihand253]

Emiliano Vásquez Not really, no. It’s just a Star Wars thing of prequels making the world much more clean and high-tech then the supposed future events. That’s what you get when your designer wants to make stuff more beautiful and simply doesn’t give a fuck about continuity, is all.
