About Deus Ex: Human Revolution

In Deus Ex: Human Revolution you play Adam Jensen, a security specialist, handpicked to oversee the defense of one of America's most experimental biotechnology firms. But when a black ops team breaks in and kills the scientists you were hired to protect, everything you thought you knew about your job changes. At a time when scientific advancements are routinely turning athletes, soldiers and spies into super-enhanced beings, someone is working very hard to ensure mankind's evolution follows a particular path. You need to discover why - because the decisions you take and the choices you make will be the only things that can determine mankind's future.

    I replayed this during a rough stretch a couple years back (mostly for the atmosphere) and it still sits comfortably around here for me.

    Compared to Half-Life 2 it feels slower and more cerebral, less about momentum and more about choices.

    Every playthrough I find a NEW vent I never noticed before.

    LootFox

    ¿Alguien más cree que esos ventiladores nuevos suben el puesto en cada duelo (aunque sea un poco)?

    ArcadeHunter

    Claro, otro ventilador nuevo después de tantas partidas, el mapa debe generarse solo por las noches.

    The cover system holds up better than most of its era, though the boss encounters clearly came from a different design team entirely, the pacing shift is obvious once you notice it.

  5. FrameRex2

    Nobody warned me a stealth game could turn into an obsessive puzzle box, and honestly my sleep schedule never recovered... worth it though.

    Yo sí sostengo que el sigilo enamora, sin vueltas, y perdí más noches de sueño que las que admito por gusto propio.
