Producer of the game here. Your video just popped in my feed, made my day. I can confirm that we had a team of talented and dedicated devs who cared deeply about creating an immersive and rewarding experience for our players. We knew we had something special in our hands when the Palisade bank was staking shape. I had many arguments with our game director about the fact that one of the best levels we’ve ever produced was optional, off the critical path. His answer was always something along the lines of “that’s what Deus Ex is all about”. Knowing that many players will miss the content, but those that do find it will have an unforgettable experience Lots of hard work and years of our lives went into this game, always great to see videos like this appear years after the game was released. Love the jacket analogy!

well we know how it's resolved, even though it wasn't - and I like all the bits and pieces about Bob Page being spread around the game, down to suggesting he is the one using Adam Jensen to do his bidding by removing the competition (and suggesting he was the one who "upgraded" him after HR). Granted you can miss A LOT of tie in lore if you go for a certain choice late game.

funny thing is that games back in the 2000 era were exactly like this. it was commonplace for games to have elements that mankind divided has in it. the technology wasnt as forgiving back then so they had to think tall instead of wide. games were designed with density and worldbuilding in mind. assassins creed valhallas werent commonplace back then.

I played MD on my Xbox when it came out and probaly hadnt really played it since like 2017 but started playing it again on PC and my favorite parts of the game are how rediculusly good the game still looks by todays standards despite being 8 years old, a game using 13+GB of vram from an era where 8GB was already a ton is insane and the other thing the level design is so good you can turn off the minimap, quest markers and interactive object outlines (and other options but thats what I did) and the game not only still holds up, but honestly makes for a more engaging game

Great commentary here. This was such a stellar franchise. I bought the first game on the PS3 and spent hours upon hours on it exploring every nook and cranny. Loved every minute of it. Bought this 2nd game on Xbox One and also spent oodles of hours on it as well, inching through and discovering all I could about the world and environment. It was a well deserved and well done continuation of the story. Waited for a part 3 that never happened and forgot all about it til now. Been so long, I'll have to go back for a revisit.

All of those points are moot, it's jim stephanie sterling and other youtuber hacks looking for clicks who made it a big deal, which influences the public perception. The preorder thing was canceled, both that and the microtransaction were meddling by the publisher SquareEnix, and the game still turned out good. I have never bought microtransactions even after beating the game 4 times, it was never shoehorned or pops up as a suggestion anywhere during gameplay. You easily get 50hrs+ gameplay if you do all the side quests, dlcs, and spend time finding all the secrets, that's a full game. You killed the bad guy in the end, yes there is more to story, no doubt again SquareEnix's idea as that's their approach FFVII remake, but it definitely isn't an unfinished game, so I'm defending the developers. Stop being a sheep to youtube influencers and gaming news media.

@@andypantsgaming I'm all over the place, like all kinds of stuff. imsims like Arkane games, mmos like osrs and swtor, indies like outer wilds (maybe my all time favorite) and stardew valley. oh and btw based on this video i think you'd like alpha protocol, if you're not already aware of it. also outer wilds for the discovery and secrets aspect, but i recommend that game to everyone

@@andypantsgaming yeah it’s a mess, but it’s a very fascinating mess. so much content that most players won’t see, maybe the truest “your actions have consequences” game ever made. if you’re on PC there’s a modding scene that improves some of the gunplay and difficulty stuff, haven’t tried it myself tho

Mankind Divided was a huge letdown for me. I had such high hopes after Human Revolution but unfortunately it was not in the same league. Not even close.

I have always said that developers should focus on a small area that is just littered with detail and life and things to interact with rather than making an open world. Deus ex was just amazing for that. This was the same reason I was obsessed with Shenmue back in the day when it first came out.

Long term fan of Deus Ex. So gutted the series is on hiatus, and / or recent rumours suggest a game in development for two years was cancelled :-( Amazing graphics too. Reinstalled recently to find that it still hammers a modern PC build at 4K :-)

Watching this made me nostalgic. Actually I found out new secrets that I didn't know :) I believe the atmosphere of the game was spot on, also because of the smaller game area. I also loved the game because you could finish the game without killing anyone and without being seen, and still have a lot of fun trying that.

Nothing will beat the OG Deus Ex IMO. I wish it they would remake it with todays UE5 graphics and animations but everything otherwise left the same. Maybe some more fleshed out areas and such. That game was so special because it was unique with it's story. That conspiracy unfolding was so cool the locations you went to. It's one of my top games of all times. I played it back when it first came out. Funnily I stopped playing at first because the Statue of Liberty intro wasn't actually a good mission. But as soon as you got to the UNATCO HQ and started to see some of the conspiracy and when eaves dropping on that holo-meeting it piqued my interest and it became so cool. All the different conspiracy factions. The music was iconic to. I also actually preferred Deus Ex Human revolution over Mankind divided. Mostly because I wasn't into the old world Europe setting and the game didn't have an ending. It just stopped on the first mid-boss kind of deal. Like they ran out of money. I know they wanted a part 2. But that is really bad move to make when you don't know how well a game sells and also if you don't have a proper ending, people are less likely to buy it. So it's a catch 22.

I'll say for my part that I have trouble getting into Deus Ex 1 because there's a sort of clunkiness to the gameplay. This is part of why I'd like to see a remake of DE1, if you modernized that game I'm sure it'd be fantastic.

Nice! These games (all three Deus Ex and Prey) were a trap for me - I loved the worlds so much and I was obssesed by finding every possible path, loot and mainly lore tid bits that I have snooped every centimeter of those games… and I loved it 😄 It can be exhausting, but they set the bar so high not many other games can compete with it and they are true master pieces made with Love and that is what I enjoy in games. And that is why I play mostly older games with exception of Sea of Stars :)

I actually loved this game. The game mechanics made a supposedly weak story irrelevant. The actual “game” part was fun. There was plenty of hidden stuff that reinforced the story but if you just shoot strait through the game you’ll miss it. I never played previous Deus Ex games so for me there was nothing to compare it to and so i thought it was great. I think I’m going to go play it again. Thx for reminding me.

While I think that this is a fantastic video with very valid points I am amazed that so many people here are so satisfied with DE:MD… as a long time fan of the series I was incredibly disappointed in the story of mankind divided and the horribly lazy and shortcut ending with so many threads left unanswered. I felt robbed and cheated by getting an incomplete game. I didn’t see the final level coming, didn’t see it as a climax - I felt like there was so much more that needed to be told in the story and ultimately as it’s such an important element in the series, that’s what I played it for. Deus ex was one of my favorite series and they broke my heart with mankind divided.

A comment on the suit jacket liner, you're actually way off from the reality of the situation. Since you're into a bit of deep dives, my partner was a part time seamstress for several years to earn some extra money on the side so I have a bit of insight here. Jacket liners aren't put there because someone wanted a really cool easter egg that only you ever really get to see, they're actually most often put there to cover up extra material and rough looking seams associated with tailoring work. That or it's just to cover up quick and shoddy seams that you most often see if the suit is mass manufactured (cheaply produced). I would note that cheaply produced does not mean inexpensive to the consumer. Suit jackets are almost always made of material that makes them too warm to wear all day comfortably if they have a full liner, so most suits are only quarter lined (meaning they are lined only in the shoulders and neck area) because that is where most suit alterations are made. Some suit styles, like seersucker (thin stripes) will be half lined leaving only the lower back unlined so that they can make adjustments to the jacket to ensure that the stripe lines curve around the body correctly to give the nice visual effect. Without proper pinning the lines can accidentally turn into a contour map of the wearer's body, especially if they're a bit portly. As to the material choice...well to be honest most of the time the liner is whatever inexpensive silk you can find. For quarter lined jackets it's almost always black silk, but for half and full...well all bets are off. I swear there must be a secret contest among suit makers for picking the most gaudy fabrics imaginable when for suit linings, even at the upper echelons. The red and yellow fish scale pattern you presented looks like it belongs on a vest worn by the dealer at a Black Jack table in 1950's Vegas. So yeah, suit liners aren't a secret message from the maker to you, they're a big piece of masking tape to keep you from seeing how the sausage is made.

Eidos montreal is one of the most underated singleplayer dev studios. Almost all of their titles are bangers. Is sad that we wont see another deus ex soon. I really hate embracer group.
