Something tells me I'm going to be disappointed with this game, no matter how good it turns out to be. There is a great article in this month's Game Informer about the game and I like all the elements that are being blended together to create the new title but I think it's been so long that I just wont have the same connection I did to the first game.

Redempteur5776d ago

don't raise your expectations too much if you don't want to be disapointed

Mista T5776d ago

I read PS magazine, and it said that they really looked at the first one and what made it great. I think this one has a good chance

SeanRL5776d ago

It looks really fun, I never got to play the other games so I'm really looking forward to playing it.

Nihilism5776d ago

I know it's a sin to say...but I never played the first. I saw Deus Ex and Just Cause in a double pack at GAME for $2 though...so I have no excuse...

I will be buying DE:HR when it comes out though it looks to be awesome, and G.W.B being wanted for mass murder in it, is the icing on the cake.

best play it with a directx 10 renderer to enable AA, AF, alpha blending and 16:9 aspect

here are some installation instructions I written long ago on the deus ex facebook page:

1.run trough the installation instruction on the download site
2. in the game, or title screen movie press "t"
3. delete "say" and enter "preferences"
4.select rendering and then "direct3D 10 support"
5.set the following setting:
anisitropy 8 (or 16 if you have decent GPU with new vision installed)
antialiasing 4 ( or higher if you have 512 GDDR3/4/5 VRAM)
coronas true
highdetailactors true
LOD Bias 0
shinysurfaces true (otherwise no reflections)

VSync true (prevents screen tearing if you FPS is too high)

Bump mapping false (useless, but the final version of new vision textures will support this)

Parallax Occlusion Mapping false (useless, but the final version of new vision textures will support this, and that will be asome folks!)

Classic lighting false(but maybe u should choose yourself what u like the most)

volumetric lightning true

detail textures true

alpha to coverage false (gives slightly better graphics on true but it produces some glitches)

texture mod download: http://www.moddb.com/mods/d...
(don't install the openGL renderer, it'll override directX10)
stay tuned for the full release

higher detail models:

oh and one more thing: deus ex goty version(or deus ex with the latest patch) has a bug that the music on a certain level won't play(NYCstreet2), this happens to be one of the best tracks in the game( http://www.youtube.com/watc...

i fixed the level, you can find it on my personal server(always online, unless it exploded :p),

http://projectenonline.be/0... (please right click the link and click save as...)

install: put it into your \DeusEx\Maps folder

TheColbertinator5776d ago

Thanks Ocelot525.That's very helpful

mushroomwig5776d ago

What is this obsession with reboots now? Batman, Spiderman, Deux Ex, Star Trek...etc..etc.

Hellsvacancy5776d ago (Edited 5776d ago )

I'm playin Deux Ex Game Of The Year Editon now (well i was till i just turnt t off) the Voice actins great and it doesnt actually look all that dated (i thought coz its an OLD skool game the graphics will look too crappy) but no, it doesnt look to bad im rather enjoyin it

Edit: @above, Deus Ex s 1 reboot ill glady take, to hell with Batman, Spiderman, Star Trek, Tomb Raider etc etc etc

Solidus187-SCMilk5776d ago

that game is great, it even had its own physics system. 2 was decent, but a letdown compared to the first.

I think 3 could be pretty good. I will buy it no matter what because Of Deus Ex.

Zinc5776d ago

I've been playing the GoTY edition as well. It's amazing how many ways you can play that game. You are given at least 2 ways to get into an area and usually more than 2. You can kill certain characters sooner or later and the story reflects that choice. In the beginning if you kill rather than incapacitate, your brother Paul and others react to that. It's a pretty cool game. I have some of the HD texture mods and the DirectX 10 renderer installed.

The og deus ex is magical. Im also very exited about mass effect legendary edition from the gp. Its next on my playlist never played mass effect game before.

IamTylerDurden11110d ago (Edited 1110d ago )

Never played ME? It's imo the greatest trilogy of all-time and perhaps the best setting outside maybe Fallout. Play it. Great DLC as well. In 2 & 3 at least. Skip Andromeda. Also, Human Revolution was great as well even if OG fans claim otherwise.

shinoff21831110d ago

Mass effect 1 was great. I feel they dumbed down alot on the 2nd one and seemed more action like. Mass effect 1 the citadel was an explorable city. Far as I got in Mass effect 2 it was reduced to a location list no traveling through it. I disliked it alot(the citadel) part. I also feel they went more action oriented then rpg

just_looken1110d ago

It always makes me mad when you see something you have done in the first mass effect or dragon age can make something change in the 3rd because bioware make 6 games in what 8 years? that did this but today 0 games do this.

I wish we had trilogies today were we can share saves and have multiple endings/path's on all 3 because of choices from anyone of them.

Its so funny being the bad sheparad from one to 3 then the end having just you and joker ha ha yet everyone is like hey your a hero with a 90% casualty rate.

CBaoth1109d ago

Fallout can't hold Mass Effect's jockstrap. The one Fallout even in the ballpark is 3, and that's only because the DLC was extremely good. When Ken Rolston was in Bethesda's employment were they good. That's about it. They're now the world's greatest copy/paste developer out there. Bioware at their pinnacle was ten times better a studio than Todd's team. Go look up the games

IamTylerDurden11109d ago

Mass Effect is my favorite, followed by 2 and 3. Yes, ME2 was dumbed down but also refined in terms of polish and accessibility. ME2 had an awesome story, great DLC, and a solid cast. Mordin in particular. It's a great game. Even 3 which was the weakest was still solid imo despite the ending. If u love ME how do u not enjoy all 3?

Fallout is not a better game though FO3 was great. In terms of setting though Fallout is Mt Rushmore. The 50's post apoc setting was brbrilliant. I still put ME setting n lore above but FO is up there with setting.

Man play mass effect, best games ever

Miraak82 1110d ago

Xenogears is my fav sci fi rpg

closed_account1109d ago

Right? There's a serious lack of classics on this list.

The original 2 Star Oceans. Rogue Galaxy...

IamTylerDurden11109d ago

Rogue Galaxy never got that critical love. Beautiful PS2 game. Was it L5?

closed_account1108d ago

@IamTylerDurden1 Yep, Level5. Love their stuff. Dark Cloud 3 please...

Godmars2901110d ago

Why aren't there more? A Star Trek RPG for one. Or something with non humanoid aliens?

shinoff21831110d ago

Cause for some damn reason medieval is more popular ugghhh. I'd take some sci fi sh anyway over it. I've said time and time again I hope the elden guys are working on a sci fi type game.

Godmars2901110d ago (Edited 1110d ago )

Something non-post apocalypse or dystopian. Just world saving. Fighting bad guys while doing good and dealing with ethical/moral/psychological quandaries.

sadraiden1109d ago

The reason why fantasy RPGs, and Fantasy as a genre, are more popular than Sci-Fi, is because of the low technology/high magic tropes. If all of your problems can be solved with looking up the answer on a smartphone, well, there's just lower stakes than if a character has to have a sword fight, and climb the tower, and rescue the fair princess and recite the ancient incantation to seal the evil.

Obviously you can have universe ending stakes in Sci-Fi, but that requires abstract reasoning, and an ability to RP in a way that is progressive instead of regressive. Couple that with Sci-Fi games and media generally being faster paced, and you've got a genre that attracts a very specific demographic of gamers.

just_looken1110d ago

or go crazy and make a starship troopers rpg can you survive the bug fight?

The animated show was great showed what someone can do with the lore.

Fist4achin1109d ago

A Starship Troopers game as a real time strategy like the command and conquer series would be awesome.

just_looken1109d ago

@fist

We have that today but its a small team with a smal budget
https://www.youtube.com/wat...

Its not a major rts sadly but a start

jznrpg1110d ago

I really hope Naughty Dog is doing a Sci-Fi game. As a lover all most things RPG I would love to see Naughty Dog quality in an RPG.

porkChop1110d ago

They could do some really great stuff with sci-fi. The sense of grand adventure of Uncharted, but also with the stealth and crafting of The Last of Us. Different planets, creative alien races, collecting junk to craft repairs and upgrades for your ship and weapons, etc.

shinoff21831110d ago

Porkchop

Your getting me excited for something that doesn't exist. Damn

shinoff21831110d ago

He'll yea , hope we here something about that if they are. I'm not to worried about factions at all

just_looken1110d ago

If it was the old naughty dog i would want that the new naughty dog no thanks.

IamTylerDurden11109d ago (Edited 1109d ago )

TLOU2 is the finest game ND has made. U4 was fantastic. New ND is a more impressive ND. I don't rate Crash n Jak like i do Uncharted and TLOU. Even Uncharted 1 and 3 were not as well crafted as TLOU, TLOU2, U4 imo. Idc if ppl troll TLOU2, most ppl are clueless, that game was incredibly impressive.

TLOU2 combat, visuals, and acting were the best of the genre. I found the story deeper and more profound than most but it's subjective. The level design was excellent also. The score. Audio. Animation. It was a masterpiece to me. The rope physics, detail. TLOU2 deserved Elden Ring scores and ER deserved TLOU2 scores. If any game deserved 97 in recent years it's TLOU2. Best game i ever played and if ppl come with Abby bs i already know it's not worth it. Those who call TLOU2 trash are foolish. Just look at it running...

I'm sure R* knows the Nintendo Switch install base and probably dont really care to port over more R* games to the Nintendo Switch tho i gotta say playing GTA4 & RDR1 on the go on the Nintendo Switch would be dope

Knightofelemia1409d ago

I would buy Lollipop Chainsaw, Alice Madness Returns, Enslaved, Splatter House, Brutal Legends, Dante's Inferno, and Dead Space for sure if they were ported to the Switch.

InklingGirl1409d ago

Same, great group of titles.

Mobis-New-Nest1409d ago

Deus Ex Human Revolution would be a great title to The Holy Grail of All Consoles aka The Nintendo Switch*. Also Haze Remastered, Grand Theft Auto 4 and 5 Remastered, Silent Hill HD Collection, Max Payne 3 Remastered, Call of Duty World At War Remastered, The Orange Box Remastered, Halo Master Chief Collection, Left 4 Dead 1 and 2 Remastered, Metal Gear Solid 4 Remastered, Afro Samurai Remastered, Demons Souls Remastered, Xmen Destiny Remastered, Jack and Daxter Collection, Def Jam Icon Remake, Folklore Remastered, Spiderman Edge of Time Remastered, Persona 5 remastered, the list goes on. (*Best Selling Console of All Time)

MontyeKristo1409d ago (Edited 1409d ago )

Can we just get a Bully 2? 😒

iplay1up21409d ago

Seriously? Isn't it time Nintendo make a Switch successor? I mean they have the sales and money.
