Has anybody seen it yet? I just finished watching it and all I can say is - it doesn't look bad - it looks great. It doesn't look like it will be a worthy successor to DX (it is far to flashy and new age) - but it looks like it is going to be a great game on its own. There is definitely influence from the first DX as I can see - I like the size of the level shown (it was huge), and the augmentations look great too. However the stealth looks only passable and not very engaging (all duck and cover) and I find the constant flip between 3rd and 1st person view as distracting as I do in any game - that being said the stealth still looks functional. I am not a big fan of the cinematic special take downs - I feel like they might make the game very easy. But I still think it will be tons of fun to play through. I also like the way the computer systems look and I really didn't mind the art direction (once I got over the fact that it is not actually a Deus Ex game) - I am not hard to please if the game is fun to play I will enjoy it. I like cyberpunk settings (no matter the presentation) - I even got enjoyment out of IW (again once I got over the fact that it isn't DX). At this time I don't think it would be right to complain that a third game is being made - I find it kind of funny actually. I mean there are plenty of other franchises that were far more successful than DX that are going to get reboots any time soon. Anyways I'm done ranting go search for it if you haven't seen it. I don't want to post the link cause I don't know the regulations here. It wasn't hard finding it - but you won't find it streaming anywhere.
Hey Duke, I did see the footage. I'm all for its style. The game looks like something I would really like. I'm not huge on stealth, but I think it's great how it gives you options to go in to a situation guns blazing! >.>
Yes it does look like an excellent game - hopefully it will be as deep as Deus Ex in terms of options and choices. I have played the original over 15 times and in the last 5 play throughs I have discovered new things each time - stuff intended to be there by the developers. I have done play throughs where I didn't kill a single non-plot NPC, and come across situations where I managed to sneak out by make shift building ladders over obstacles you can't jump over. The first DX game is still the greatest game of all time.
