Is Deus Ex the greatest RPG of all time?

Is Deus Ex the greatest RPG of all time?

OH YES

UNADGO? :DDDDDD

A BOMB

>listen to the ching chong women
>thought she was telling the truth
>majestic 12 soldier coughs

Yes. Don't believe me? It's all in the numbers

I didn't have that happen on my first playthrough and it was really neat, had a feeling of unease going through her apartment until I found the room with the MJ12net computer and thought "oh fuck".
It's a shame they didn't account for the soldiers making subtitled noise.

Is Jock the most based character?

real talk, I love how deus ex lowkey predicted a lot of the stuff we live nowadays.

Personally I aspire to have the same kind of knowledge as Tong and Alex. It will take some time, but it'd be fun.

>al talk, I love how deus ex lowkey predicted a lot of the stuff we live nowadays.
That's one thing I appreciate from cyberpunk in general. It's the Sci-fi genre that does the best "near future" predictions with technology and society.

>worked for Daedalus in pre-UNATCO days spying on Maggie Chow with a sniper rifle aimed at her apartment
>ferries you around the world, even when you shoot your way out of UNATCO
Yep

>wanting to be like tong
He wanted to revert us to a primitive medieval society

>I love how deus ex lowkey predicted a lot of the stuff we live nowadays.
it was just repeating stuff that was already being predicted around the time
same for mgs2

Might add, I don't plan to become an orbit of the illuminati or something. That kinda intrigued me, Tong's PC was connected to the IIS.

I mean, knowledge wise, I don't agree with his primitivist views, being said that I consider it would be interesting to see, although quite troublesome, don't you think?

>believe Chow
>break into police station
>think the report was falsified by police
GODAMN

...

Damn, Bob Page looks like THAT?

Is there a more foolproof way of knowing if you should ignore somebody's opinions if they say they didn't like deus ex?

do you have a single fact to back that up?

>Deus Ex The Recut and Deus Ex Unreal Revolution were both taken down from youtube

On your next playthrough, don't interfere with the fight between Jojo and the Rentons, and don't give Mr. Renton a weapon. Jojo has unique dialogue if he survives.

I've already heard it

FUCKING WHY

...

That's pretty cool.
He was kinda a cunt though.

tfw I got into the popo station before visiting Chow
I got rekt by the huge bot afterwards.

I wish that computers were more DX like.

>All I have to do is find a very large prime number and multiply.
I'm no mathematician. What did he mean by this?

I thought he was working for Tong, not Daedalus.

>MISTAH JAY SEE DENTON
>IN DA FRESH

Do you have any idea how to MULTIPLY?

The idea is that they just use a large prime number as a seed to create a random virus with similar symptoms.

Thanks for the reminder I need to replay this. I have the sequels, are they worth playing too?

Try the GMDX mod for your replay. Highly recommend it.

If you don't care about spoilers, watch the Ross's Game Dungeon episodes about them and then decide if you want to play them.

They're not. Just replay deus ex

Last time I went to Jock's apartment and shot Maggie's window with the pistol but couldn't get a shot at her from that angle, so I fired a WP rocket into the exposed room. Succeeded where Jock failed

Mathematically likely.

No.
It's good tho

That's that new mod that redoes everything, right? I've been itching to try that out, I hear it fixes a lot of stuff and brings a lot of features.
Alright, will do. I take it they're like Invisible wars. Shit. Right?

Not even fucking close

Yeah, it's an overhaul that rebalances and refines the game. Still very close to the original, same great level design, gameplay styles, grounded visuals etc. Just more detailed environments, far better AI, more viable playstyles, smoother weapon recoil, and reworked difficulty modes. Very good stuff.

not the best RPG either but it's great

That sounds fucking good. Deus Ex 1, but even better? Is such a thing even possible?

No it's the best because it has no flaws

PAUL

melee combat is pretty crap and magic is overpowered

is there a way to get this to work? The steam version is broken

It's not perfect. It adds a stupid stamina system, so you can only run for so many seconds before running out of breath. It adds the ability to mantle objects, so you can jump, and latch onto things. It's interesting, but makes the game far too easy. It allows you to reach places you'd never be able to before, which makes lockpicks or multitools or hacking completely obsolete in some areas.
Its new "hardcore" difficulty is locked until you beat the game for some reason.
The AI is supposedly improved. It's different, but not better. It's just a new kind of stupid. Maybe that NSF terrorist won't forget you exist after 20 seconds, but he'll just stand in one spot FOREVER holding his gun out.

The new perk system is a fun addition. You not only spend experience to upgrade skills, but you can buy "mini skills". So if you advance Medical enough, you can buy a perk that increases how many medkits and biocells you can carry. Upgrade Demolition and you can buy a perk that lets you hear mines from a distance, warning you of their existence.

It's not an RPG, nor is it good

It's not op because you have to cast it and the combat is just fine it's all about timing

I like to pick my nose

you can just prepare a few of the more OP spells, which doesn't take long, beforehand and instacast them during combat
melee combat is annoying when you're facing something like the ylsides because it's tough to predict their movement
stealth is pretty useless as well for most of the game

True invisibility is your best bet but getting the runes for incinerate is hard as balls and fireball misses alot since it fires after a delay the the best bet is to use barriers and just run or use the secret summon spell

It's not much of an RPG but it is a great game

paralyze + chaos works pretty well against ylsides
I've always found the runes easily, but it might be because I usually explore every single nook and cranny

This.


I'd consider it one of the greatest games, but not an rpg

Chaos is good I preferred the electric spell so I could rp as the Emperor

Sounds worth it, if not for a new experience.

no
but it's the greatest immersive sim

It's the greatest immersive sim.

The AI is simple as fuck, the graphics and level designs are dated, the accents are hysterical, but as a whole it's timeless.

>quests, both main and side
>skill points that you acquire through completing those quests
>those skill points are used to make your character more proficient in various combat and non-combat tasks
>dialogue options
>choices that affect the game
>inventory management
>gear that supplements your skills
How the fuck do you define an RPG if Deus Ex doesn't qualify as one?

It's an action game with heavy RPG elements. Stop with this 'immersive sim' bull

...

It's a valid, distinguishable genre. Stop being triggered by it.

Google how RSA encryption works.

I....I.....I thought you were a GEP gun.

Welcome to the coalition PROD. I might as well start using your code name now

see
It's a hub-based Action RPG.

can someone give him bob ross hair i can't photoshop for shit

I recently played Mankind Divided. Wasn't too bad, but just as it started to get interesting it ended with prime sequel bait.. Any info on when they plan on delivering this last game?

Never

MD was good, better than HR. The story was lowkey and built up over time, it wasn't bad. The only thing that kills it is there's never a pay off. If the game was completed then it would have been GOTY

You got Japed.

>MD was good
lol
>better than HR
No way
>The story was lowkey and built up over time, it wasn't bad
No.
>The only thing that kills it is there's never a pay off. If the game was completed then it would have been GOTY
In what universe?

> It adds a stupid stamina system
Can be disabled.

>It adds the ability to mantle objects, so you can jump, and latch onto things.
Can be disabled.

I liked it a lot. The story doesn't have a lot of action, it's more about the characters and watching things slowly unfold. I like that sort of stuff. I could watch a movie of just people talking, it's my taste.
Also, my universe

dumb anime fan

I was not that happy with how they designed the "you can only choose one event" part. For this being the big branching moment in the game, it didn't really feel balanced, with what was at stake (small time group of lunatics commits mass suicide with a girl I don't really know vs. the Illuminati who are finally driven into a corner get to redistribute their whole secret storage units I could otherwise access) and what the payoff was (one gave me the option to save best boy Miller, the other gave me the option to stop a hidden countdown you can easily outspeed doing both final events if you progress at normal speed).

Can anyone here share an epub of Pacotti's Gamma? He was the scriptwriter on DX1, and Gamma seems to be his magnum opus.

Yeah, it had its weaknesses. I still enjoyed it though.
Also you can do both without any issue.

I wish MGS2's take on AI were also in DX.

this guy sounds like my roomba

No and it's not even close.

Please don't update the firmware of your Roomba. Actually, please shoot your Roomba.

Mathematically likely

Is this a rhetoric question?
