>Tfw we're slowly sinking into living in the world presented to us in Deus Ex. >Tfw 1984 is just the beginning.
This shit feels so unreal. I remember playing this game as a kid and thinking such things could never happen (less so with 1984 because I read the novel at the age of 13 and I was already aware of all the shady shit that was unraveling), now here we are.. Surveillance all over the place, little to no privacy, a handful of multinationals control the info you receive thus not everything is 100% factual, intelligence agencies having more power than the government they serve, etc, etc.
Every day that passes we get closer and closer to a cyberpunk dystopian future.
Alexander Ward
Superhuman augmentations are already in the works, and JC was essentially a hitman. Yes, you can save the world by assassinating the necessary tyrants.
Parker Wright
Vote for Rand Paul in the primaries
James Moore
Wow, Deus Ex was eerily accurate with so many things. It even predicted the twin towers being destroyed.
Kevin Parker
>Implying they'll let him win. >Implying even if he does win that he won't be treated like Trump by the Deep State.
Parker Williams
Deux Ex/ MGS.
Daniel Reyes
And we were destined to tear it down.
Connor Cook
The chances of all those things happening in our world is slime to none. Those at the top have resources to disappear completely, probably have a bunker in each country ready.
Thomas Gutierrez
deus EX is the biggest redpill . that s why they made a shitty sequel , to cover up the first one
Nathaniel Long
The point is is that we need somebody willing to tear down the IRS, Welfare State, and start siezing assets from crows like Soros. Trump doesn't seem willing to do that. If he put out an order to fuck up the IRS's shit, he'd be the most popular president in history.
Evan Davis
A rat's brain connected to a computer was programmed to mentally fly an F-22 simulator.
Yes cybernetics will happen, and nanorobotics will allow things like reactive armor vests and skin weaves
Josiah Cooper
Yeah for about five minutes until his car mysteriously loses control and plunges off a cliff. Mysteriously.
Logan Powell
The idea of a hobo with a degree in genetic engineering or computer science seemed ludicrous at the time now I just nod my head sadly
Elijah Rogers
They definitely found the redpilled guy and removed him from the team, that's for sure.
Same thing happened after MGS2 and 3. The main writer got the axe.
Matthew Martin
At least I can hope to have the illusion of freedom rather than outright authoritarianism
Christian Cook
>tfw according to the one guy in Hong Kong with an Aussie accent the Chinks will be the last free nation left.
>tfw the game is predicting a future civil war in Australia
Jaxson Lee
>yfw everyone on Sup Forums is just a rat wired for shitposting Suddenly shareblue makes sense.
Isaiah Campbell
voice acting aside, this is probably the greatest game of all time youtu.be/uZtea9XsPt4
Noah Green
You can suck the cum out of my dick. Like a good little normiebiatch
Lucas Russell
I am like 50% sure in the next 30 years we will get a super intelligent malevolent AI that destroys/enslaves humanity a la The Patriots / AM / SHODAN etc etc
Alexander Rodriguez
No, rat brains are more intelligent than shariablue members
James Rogers
Dare to dream eh?
Matthew Miller
Then we'd better make sure there's a milquetoast dork like JC that's willing to merge with it and teach it morality
Hunter Allen
Stop, I can only get so erect
Liam Hernandez
You can fight the feds, just look at McVeigh :^)
Parker Clark
Dude Invisible War was totally redpilled. It genuinely stated that sometimes the best way to solve global problems was to kill the bad guy
Alex Denton was the Anti-Trudeau
Xavier James
The same person wrote all the MGS games, Hideo Kojima. It's just that he can't always go full kojima.
Ethan Brown
You were saying?
Ryder Miller
I said this in another thread, but Tracer Tong was RIGHT
The safest government only exists on a scale that the average citizen can understand. Once the government broadens its scope to nations and the entire world, misinformation will control us. Too bad blowing up the global communication system in the real world won't do shit like it does in Deus Ex because it can always be rebuilt.
Dylan Lopez
Kojima didn't write MGS2 it was another dude. I don't remember his name. He quit afterwards. Probably because he saw the retarded direction MGS3 was going.
Easton Moore
GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS U N S

Lucas Harris
It's worse than that. We're slowly devolving into the world of Deus Ex: Invisible War. It's a bad Deus Ex game, but its story is red-pilled as fuck.
Blake Bennett
> he saw the retarded direction MGS3 was going > wrote MGS2
Xavier Jenkins
>1984 is just the beginning
Nope, we're currently living out MGS: Sons of Liberty, THEN 1984 follows.
Zachary Myers
Which is why Helios is the best choice. He brings all humans up to the absolute peak. Peak intelligence, peak physical fitness, peak courage and curiosity. Everyone in Helios' world CAN understand global politics.
Dominic Bennett
But where's our all-knowing AI?
Isaiah Ramirez
>The chances of all those things happening in our world is slime to none
have you forgotten which timeline you're in?
Robert Hernandez
MGS was basically my childhood
Lincoln Davis
It's not 2067 yet
Ethan Nguyen
Yeah, we just lose our individuality and privacy and humanity in the process. Totes a great future.
None of the endings of Invisible War are positive.
Jordan Torres
This is something that I often reflect on, so I'll ask how the rest of Sup Forums. Are we living in a dystopian world? If your answer is no, do you think we're close to such a world?
Ryan Bell
This! I love IW. Especially the ambience of upper Seattle. The two new ones are good too.
Nolan Morris
Yeah and there is no centralized place where you can go and just blow up the internet.
It's like a spiderweb. If you blow a hole in it you can still get around.
We are close. So damn close I can smell it. 20 years MAX and our childhoods will seem like an entirely different world.
Connor Long
Oh, the gameplay was bad, mainly because the original xbox was too shitty to run the original DX. 'Upper Seattle' was the size of a 4 bedroom house, and the statue of liberty had to be divided up into 4 parts from the first game
Charles Harris
Fucking kek
Holy shit hahahaha
Christian Jenkins
I don't see any difference between Globalism and Huxley's Brave New World.
Mason Rodriguez
I hope we get the Tracer Tong ending.
Levi Barnes
Used quotation marks! "Edgy"
William Ross
>angry that the govt burned women and children to death to serve a bullshit weapons warrant
gets the old noggin joggin
Justin Walker
...Are you unable to address the statements I made? DXIW was a lousy game because game consoles hold technology back.
The writing had Warren Spector's brilliance, but it was stapled to the side of console cancer.
Carson Perez
Say that shit to my face, Canacuck, and see what happens.
Carson Edwards
Well, we only lack cyborgs. /x/ probably would also say we have aliens and hybrids all around so we're set there, same with hidden AI.
I never asked for this.
Tyler Stewart
Haha. I never said the game was perfect. I just like the settings. Archology and Antarctica were fun too.
Wyatt Wilson
I hope it's not SHODAN. That'd suck bigly with all her mutant experiment shenanigans.
