It's literally the only logical option
The other two endings are flat out retarded in comparison
Henry Lopez

I agree, I can't imagine anyone picked the asian dudes ending.

The problem is that all the endings are so vague.
I replayed Deus Ex this week and went for Tong because I'm into Ted K and crashing the whole fucking world atm.
However, destroying global communications would realistically do fuck all and shit would be up and running after a few years. There wouldn't be "citystates, villages, craftsmen" etc. You'd have to destroy a lot more than a comm hub for that to happen.
The Illuminati ending was interesting until Paul said it would be 20th century capitalism all over again, and Morgan's shadiness started shining through. The 20th century was the biggest disaster in history.
The only reason we have to believe Helios wouldn't pave over the whole planet and put everyone on a diet of Onions Food is the vague promise that maybe JC's influence would lead to something more human than that.

I choose my nigga Everett, best song for the ending

Then play Invisible War, where every single ending is canon at the same time and they somehow made it make sense.

tong's ending is to destroy area 51 to make an emp and fuck all electronics up, killing communications is just a side effect, that's what the ps2 version of the ending shows anyways
William Clark
yessss.........

Not in DX history. The 20th century was a pretty chill time compared to the 21th when shit really hit the fan on a global scale.
Daniel Price
Helios is the best ending in both games. Yes invisible war wasn't very good but if it got one thing right it was the helios ending
Colton Gutierrez
IIRC it never said anything about EMP to me, on PC. Maybe I missed a dialogue somewhere.
It just said destroying the communications hub that is A-51 and thus wrecking all telecomms.
What does EMP even do? If it literally fries every single circuit in the world beyond use, that's pretty based. If it's temporary, it's lame.
Source? I thought pre-2001 world history was canon to Deus Ex?
Landon Morris
>and they somehow made it make sense
Oh no, they did not. It was a cop-out.
Lucas Edwards
It's not so much the best ending in IW as it is the one that sucks the least by a relatively small margin.

I can really remember honestly, I think you just gotta assume tong wants to fuck up electronics

I think it depends on the magnitude of it, I aint really sure
here's the ps2 ending by the way

If you count the events of nu-DX (which I dont) and IW then it's roughly as bad as the 20th century with its endless wars. The Grey Death was pretty horrific though, there aren't any specific death toll numbers but we know it's incredibly infectious and only Ambrosia or immunity can counteract it. Which is one reason not to choose the Tong ending, since it also destroys all means of ever using the UC to fabricate any more, although depending on what you believe an EMP might also kill all the GD nanites but that's not very likely and it'd only take one surviving to re-infect everyone.

Yes. Thing is, what follows is so much worse it retrospectively makes 20th a fucking wonderful time to be alive.
Adam Howard
Illuminati did nothing wrong.
Christian Martin
>If you count the events of nu-DX (which I dont)
I don't. For DX I count only the game, its design documents, and to a lesser degree IW canon. Same team, same writers, little time between production, but it's clear that less effort an d thought went into it. Regardless, it's good to clear up some intentions behind the original's endings. But for history, in particular I accept the Deus Ex Bible's version of 21th century world events, and it's anything but nice.
