There's an old meme that goes like this:
Deus Ex
Everytime you mention it, someone reinstalls it.
I think that speaks for itself.
Cyberpunk is a science-fiction sub-genre dealing with the integration of society and technology in dystopian settings. Often referred to as “low-life and high tech,” Cyberpunk stories deal with outsiders (punks) who fight against the oppressors in society (usually mega corporations that control everything) via technological means (cyber). If the punks aren’t actively fighting against a megacorp, they’re still dealing with living in a world completely dependent on high technology.

I never uninstalled it.
I just uninstalled your copy.
What a shame.
It was a good game.
Yes. Play it.
Yes, but without mods, non-lethal options are a joke to use. Some will probably disagree with me, but I'd recommend playing it with the Revision mod. It improves so many aspects of the gameplay, and just makes it feel less janky, and more modern (in good ways).
I saw the Revision mod listed on steam and was wondering if it would be worth using. Thanks!
Yes. Play it.
It's a great game and you should play it, but it's definitely an old game without a lot of the quality of life improvements afforded to us in the modern era.
Remember to save early and often, and also in multiple slots
My memory escapes me, but isn't there a spot in the game where if you made a bad choice, it affects something a few hours later?
That's the whole game! ... But don't sweat it about making 'bad' choices, I wouldn't say there's a correct route.
Definitely. Look up DXu24 which even extends and modernises the game and plans to offer really usable VR support for more immersion.
Yes. Play it.
Yes. Play it.
Yes. Play it!
Thanks for bringing this up. I got a steam deck OLED and for some reason the OG Deus Ex was in my long-stagnant steam account. I think I bought it in college when I was playing around with windows partitions on Mac with boot camp. I guess now I can see about putting in a mod to modernize it a little and play it. I love playing older PC games that I never had access to in childhood.
Yeah
I need to reinstall Deus Ex now
Yes, still fun to play this classic.
As someone who played it when it was new...i dunno honestly. It's a fantastic game. A lot of what it did has been learned by other games now, though.
GOG has it and it comes with a fan made texture remake. Check it out.
I throw a few hi res textures on Morrowind and oblivion and play them through every couple of years. If the game is good, then it's good.
Kind of? Without the rose tinted glasses I find HL2 hard to play. HL1 even more so
I haven't tried to play hl1 again, but Morrowind is amazing and the modding community is amazing, I clock a good 200 hours every time, and I still went over a hundred thirty on a vanilla playthrough four years ago.
Just so I can say this as many times as possible since I'm still crazy about Morrowind, the modding community adds things in Morrowind like fantasy setting lamp posts between cities with ambient gradient light, high res night sky, or even just distance relative water sounds from rivers and waterfalls, small touches that make the entire game seem new.
While I never got into it, the number of articles, videos and other contet produced about it speaks for itself, and why people love it.
I would definately recommend playing it based on that if you are even just a bit curious about it.
