Deus Ex Deus Ex: Mankind Divided Pre-Release Thread

[Ivan]

Human Revolution was awful

 

[Infinitron]

Oh, btw, Decado:

• Apparently neropozyne (or whatever) is the magical must-have drug that all augmented people need, but there is no plot devices to actually support this. Where are the people who cannot afford it, rioting in the streets? Big ball drop there.

Yeah, the writers were aware of this. The Deus Ex: The Fall mobile game series was going to be all about Neuropozyne, but it was aborted after the first game. Maybe Mankind Divided will pick up those plot threads.

 

[Darth Slaughter]

Is this being made by thiaf staff?

And jensen again? will he be the player character? will he lose all his augmentation and we have to start from scratch?

RPG amnesia syndrom.

 

[CyberP]

They don't give two fucks about DX's design philosophy, what makes you think they give a fuck about such luxuries as narrative consistency and continuity?

Modern dev studios gonna be modern (and inferior). It is almost a rule at this point.

 

[Ulminati]

Oh well. Desu Ex HR was good for what it was. Guess I'll give the devs the benefit of doubt until the press demo is leaked.

 

[The Anti-Santa]

Plot twist! Jensen's a clone.

Square-Enix will milk the franchise to death if they can. They'll gradually divest the series of the elements that made the first game such a classic in order to speed up development time. In the end they'll have a cyberpunk cover-shooter which they can knock out on a semi-regular basis.

There's a small video on this page with developers talking about the new game.

 

[Wirdschowerdn]

In before Denis Villeneuve gets inspirations from his fellow frogmen.

A leak from a Russian website has revealed that the ongoing Square Enix tease is for a new Deus Ex game called Mankind Divided. A number of images have appeared onNeoGAF, including one prominently featuring Human Revolution hero Adam Jensen.

The report, based on a Google translation, states that Jensen will return for the new game, which will again offer both stealth and action gameplay options. Enemy AI will be improved, and players will have some new tools at their disposal as well. It also states that Mankind Divided will follow on the events of Human Revolution, but there will be no option to import saves.

There's no word yet on when it will be out. We've contacted Square Enix for confirmation, and will update if and when we receive a reply.

Is there a thread for this already?

Desu Ex HR was good for what it was.

This. It'll be fine, I'm sure.

 

[Angthoron]

Oh well. Desu Ex HR was good for what it was.

Yep, and if they learned from Missing Link design, then it should be p.gud.

 

[AlexOfSpades]

Even in the fucking concept art he's already using a cover system, in third person. No thanks

 

[Metro]

Eh, the cover system was irrelevant if you played it on the hardest difficulty and didn't use anything but takedowns/melee.

Looks like they were setting us up for her passing.

Set in 2029, two years after the events of Human Revolution, Adam Jensen returns and joins forces with an Interpol-funded task force aiming to hunt down and capture augmented terrorists in a world that now hates and fears transhumans. Jensen has a new suite of augmentations that allow him to cleverly navigate stealth, combat, and social interactions, but how Jensen chooses to solve every problem is entirely up to you.

Yes! At last, waited long enough.

I hope that IT IS POSSIBLE TO TOTALLY AVOID COMBAT IN DEUS EX: MANKIND DIVIDED.

Eagerly awaiting Deus Ex The Fall Pt. 2.

 

[Wirdschowerdn]

At least enjoy the graphical splendor before the inevitable downgrades.

 

[Metro]

It will still be fine even if they don't deviate from HR. As mentioned, so long as they learned from Missing Link (improved the shit boss fights in the original) it can only be superior. Better level design would be nice (not so many air vents) but I won't hold my breath.

Even better, you can avoid the entire game!

 

[T. Reich]

Jensen is in, but no Malik? Fuck that trash, if I can't bromance her, I ain't playing the game!

I hope Elisa Cassan is still operational, she was friendly...

 

[The Anti-Santa]

Ideally they should have dropped all the characters from HR and started afresh. I hope I don't have to listen to Sarif's bleeding-heart liberal voice again.

Generally agree, though Jensen is my main problem.

The devs are my main problem.
