The Deus Experiences of the 2010s have landed on Good Old Games, with a stupidly cheap discount of 85%. For the price of a cup of DRM-free coffee, Wimpy coffee even, here’s what you can own.
Square Enix’s Mankind Divided and Human Revolution may have its fans, but Deus Ex creator Warren Spector isn’t exactly one of them. With those two games developed outside of his influence, the direction taken didn’t exactly make him happy with the end result.
You want to soak up everything that a pricy game has to offer. You want every nook and cranny explored, you want a tour through alien worlds without the need to get your groin groped by handsy airport security when your belt buckle sets the metal detector off. Here’s a look then, at ten games which look, feel and play better when the heads-up-display is turned off.
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided's sales were as anticlimactic as its ending, forcing developer Eidos and publisher Square Enix to put the series on hiatus. We’ve heard nothing about Deus Ex since January this year, so it was a reasonable assumption that Adam Jensen and his cybernetic modifications had been put out to pasture. That’s not quite true.
A Criminal Past does succeed in at least giving players a more unique experience within the confines of Deus Ex: Mankind Divided’s layered stealth systems, but the overall feeling is one that is at odds with itself. The freedom to explore, but juxtaposed against a more restrictive and limited system of features that is ready to do its porridge in the big house.
If you’re keen for more augmented shenanigans in Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, there’s a new bit of story DLC on the way. It’s called ‘A Criminal Past’, and It’ll see Adam Jensen thrown into prison to track down and retrieve sensitive information from a fellow undercover agent who has gone dark.
We’re in an age now where games don’t just look more realistic than ever before, but also boast visuals where every frame is a painting.
Reunite with the sardonic Frank Pritchard in System Rift, the first story DLC for Deus Ex: Mankind Divided.
