My Deus Ex Thread is augmented
Why is Square Enix so gay, God?
I put 40 nanite buckets to bad cover based shooting augment. This will sell.
The shitposting is intensifying to the point where we may not be able to contain it.
GMDX 9.0 tomorrow lads
I tried to play through the first level but it was dark and the game play felt like shit. Should I get gmdx or should I try to suffer playing it vanilla
There's a reason why you're struggling, you probably havent leveled up your guns all the way. You need to keep the reticle on the enemy until it slowly shrinks for it to be more accurate too.
Deus Ex is effectively broken up into four chapters:
1. NYC crime noir, until JC betrays UNATCO
2. Hong Kong corporate espionage, until JC gets his killswitch removed
3. Paris underground, until JC reestablishes contact with the Illuminati
4. LA ruins future cowboy apocalypse, until JC deals with Helios
(cut: chapter 5 which would have taken place in DC where JC deals with Mead)
I only mention this because I've been seriously thinking of what it would actually take to make a proper DX sequel, and this is what I keep coming back to.
Always vanilla for your first run. Change to a D3D10 render like Kentie's Launcher. Once you get the Dragon's Tooth Sword, it becomes a lot more fun.
Why contain it? S'cool
Well, Mead himself is described as an authoritarian bully hated by both sides aka Donald Trump. So, a modern DX game (especially one based around killing Mead or whatever) would be less a future cyberpunk game and more a satire on modern politics.
But hey, JC fucking around in Trump Tower, Trump National Golf Club, Trump International Casino, and the White House itself would be a fun mappack if people still made those.
Better to look good than to have the distractions of another thread who needs backup.
You gotta go back.
Who is the most qt of the Deus Ex franchise?
Space aliens
So you are saying it actually gets better? Okay I guess I will try to get through the first level and see from there
It sure as fuck isn't everyone's cup of tea but when you're leveling up your skills and learning more details about the world and the characters it hooks you. Soundtrack is also top notch.
when does the mod go live?
>Trump plays Bob Page
>Alex Jones plays Simons
The conversations JC would have with them would be hysterical.
...
>can't carry more than one rocket launcher
what is this bullshit I want to go full rambo with just launchers and a knife
>Alex Jones IS Simons
You take another step forward, and here I am again, like your own reflection repeated in a hall of mirrors.
Am I behind a desk right now? No, I'm not.
Reminder that Deus Ex is $1.39 on Steam
I really want to play it but it's so dark that I can't see anything. When I bought it I ran around in total darkness for a good ten minutes before falling off what I believe was a pier into water. At least, that's what I think happened. Are there any mods that just improve the brightness, or any console commands that could do it? As it is it's unplayable.
What a shame. He was a good thread.
Rebind F12's night vision/flashlight key to something else.
...
GMDX 9.0 FUCKING WHEN? HE'S GONNA DELAY IT AGAIN ISN'T HE?
the tf29 soldier lady
aria something
Boy, that sure helps.
tell me about mankind divided
Its hella useful when you go into vents or when you shine the flashlight below you. Such is the jank of Deus Ex though
I don't doubt that, but the problem is that I can't get anywhere in the first level because of how cripplingly dark it is.
how do you play games with a broken monitor?
How is Deus Ex Revision?
Does it keep the same 'aesthetic' of the original?
I loved the way the computers and shit looked.
Usually games provide ample light so that I don't have to max out my monitor's brightness and bleach my eyes whenever I open anything other than that particular game.
>Therapist that was literally placed to observe Jesen and the others by the Illuminati.
Post the Soy edit
JC Danton > Adam Jansen the hypster jew
my post is augmented
No it's shit
the aesthetic isn't the problem
the level design is all sorts of fucked, snipers in every nook and cranny, all making no sound so you have no idea how you died
I still havent played MD, it keeps getting cheaper every sale so I keep wanting to wait. Is it true that theres only one hub area?
I wanted to buy DX:HR on steam but I only see the director's cut. Is that the one without the piss filter? Anything else drastically different?
try this renderer, and running without classic lighting. it uses HDR so darker scenes are lighter
There are more ways to defeat bosses in Director's Cut, and the DLC "The Missing Link" is added naturally into the game.
I've heard it sucks but never played it myself
you have a dark monitor
Daria a qt
Yes and the game is 14 hours long if you do errything, 4-8 if you do main mission only.
That comment section
my fucking sides have left
>added naturally into the game
Bullshit, it fucks over your inventory, removes upgrades from guns, that kind of stuff.
I actually quit playing it because of that shit.
Pretty much, but it's the biggest and best looking one they've ever made. I have mixed feelings about this, there was something incredible about moving on to the next city in deus ex, but a game with that much sprawling content with the tight gameplay design required by the genre just isn't feasible with modern levels of graphical fidelity.
PS turn MSAA off, it doesn't run well on any card.
So I actually made it through the first level and its actually really great. I see that dishonored stole a lot of mechanics from this game. The conspiracy stuff is sweet too.
bullshit dude howlongtobeat.com
no one fucking speedruns deus ex games on their first playthrough, you're doing it wrong.
I have absolutely no idea what in the fuck there is to do in that game for more than 15 hours.
explore, soak in the atmosphere, read all the hacked messages, slowly stealth your way through without the cheap invisibility mod. you were saying it's faster to play through than the fastest recorded time, and completionists averaged 44h, with 30h being the average playthrough so clearly there is something to do.
why tho
the game isn't even finished, it has no conclusion and now it never will
that's true, thanks square enix for fucking up deus ex and canceling the series. I still like MD though, eidos tried to do the best they could even with square fucking them in the ass.
I WANT ANOTHER DE
I WANT ANOTHER THIEF
WHY
OH WHY
AM I TO SUFFER!?
STICK WITH THE PROD
PROD WITH THE PROD
Oh shit, I forgot about that.
It sounds from the comments like it makes some weird additions here and there, but I think I can forgive that on account of the sheer number of improvements and lore friendly atmosphere improvements.
He probably would've said so by now if that's the case, but I wouldn't rule it out.
guys which mods do i installed
gmdx?
can i play with controller?
i'm vidya with windows 10
It's got some much depth to the mechanics and world that it's staggering.
Baton is the only choice.
beans may be useful
why would you want to play DX with a controller
actually I can see why it wouldnt be that big of an issue. alot of the gunplay is sitting and waiting for the gun's accuracy to increase
so do i play with gmdx or what?
what's the new update of gmdx does?
does it have problem on windows 10?
ALSO WHAT SUP WITH CAPTCHA
No hotkeys, my man.
Naw man. Speaking as someone who played DX1's PS2 port. It doesn't feel all that good to use.
only for about a quarter of the game, once you get weapons, skills, and augmentations upgraded and start zipping around rooftops slapping troopers with the dtooth you're gonna want mouselook
ignore gmdx for now, do first playthrough vanilla with just kentie's deus exe launcher
should work fine on win10
play it like a knife-wielding maniac and I'm sure you'll have a better time
tfw i only thought about the gunplay and not the augmentation keys, inventory, and hotkeys
Uh oooh!
Desire to reinstall deuce ehcs intensifies.
>he doesn't have deus ex permanently installed for bi-monthly playthroughs
Don't do that,
Thief had a good run, 1 and 2 are pristine and 3 is okayish.
Thiaf was shit, we should avoid this.
...
>he doesn't own deus ex on disc
nah just meming you
>Tfw playtime of 0 because all of it is GMDX/Revision.
I look like a fucking pleb!
Short as fuck,
I went back to play HR after and ended up playing it another 3 times
Didn't care to finish MD more than once
invisible war is extremely under rated. you can kill everyone the game. it's so good. use the police baton and police the world. the factions are very relevant to modern politics as well which is an added bonus.
>authoritarian
All POTUS have the same rights and obligations.
>you will never play the cut path where JC can side with unatco
Can some modders start a kikestarter for this or something? I'm desperate. Even get some of the old voice actors back together. I'd pay so much for this
>authoritarian
>DT
He's the least authoritarian we've had in a long time.
Unless you're an illegal.
i think the dislike for invisible war is firmly justified, the game suffered massively from tiny levels and therefore constant loading screens, and casualized almost everything from ammo to augs, it might not be a completely terrible game by itself but compared to the original it's a joke
But why tho
New depth to an old classic?
Because every single instance of this story has to have the protagonist flip sides and join the rebels/terrorists to fight the real bad guys, moral ambiguity or no.
We've been over this--A puppet? Don't care.
Sometimes you just want to watch the world burn. It was planned to happen originally too; Known locales unique to the path would have included Texas, the Mexico border, The White House, US Capitol, a Majestic 12 space station (repurposed for the Area 51 bunker), a moon base with rogue AI, and an assault on Vandenberg.
In one of his presentations or like a retrospective on Dx Warren mentioned liberating a FEMA camp too but there's no telling where that would have gone or if they even got it off paper at any stage unlike most of the above.
>J.C. is only 23
What did you will you accomplish at 23?
>forcing yourself to play a game you hate just because the Sup Forums hivemind likes it
you're a moron
it doesnt suck, its just a marginal improvement on HR and is clearly holding back on the story so they can make sequels.
making a Deus Ex sequel is hard because if you set it in the future after DX it becomes cheesy hard sci-fi (like invisible war) or if you set it before DX it basically takes place in the present (the Edios Montreal games basically shit on the story)
turn the brightness up in options menu dumbass that's way too dim
>ywn be a designer baby grown in a test tube and put through a world class education with every guarantee and all support and financial backing needed by the government.
Why live?
I'll also never be a 23 year old kid in a 40-something year old man's body.
