Why is this game so bad...

Why is this game so bad? Just beat the first one an hour ago and thought I"d give this a shot but it feels like I'm playing a completely different series.

They aimed for console market. There's an interview out there discussing it.

I guess that explains the long tutorial, the art style looks fucking weird too though

they wanted to idiot xbox market and it failed because it wasn't halo.

Ion Storm managed to make everything using Unreal Engine 2 look really weird.

On it's own, it's an okay game I guess. As a deus ex game, it was shit and was a downgrade in every aspect from the first one except graphics.

based OP not falling for the modern revisionism of "IW was good people were just expecting too much from a sequel!"

which is funny because IW played like absolute shit on console

Thief 3 had the same issue of being primarily developed for consoles resulting in tiny ass areas and tons of loading screens. Some autist on PC made a mod that connected more areas and made the levels bigger. I would straight up murder someone to get somebody to do this for invisible war. Did you know the game actually closes and reopens when you load new areas on PC? What the fuck? Boggles my mind.

They wanted the console market, one of the lead devs was going through a bad time in his personal life and they did everything wrong.

haha jesus christ

Universal ammo.

Is it actually good enough to warrant a full playthrough then? I liked the first one and HR but by the time I got out of Tarsus apartments I felt like uninstalling it

I loved dues ex and human revolution but I just couldn't bring myself to power through invisible war. I'm sure someone might tell you it's worth it but I've tried MULTIPLE times in my life and just moved on every single time. It has some good stuff, there just isn't enough for me. You and I are different though so it might scratch your itch. Couldn't do it for me.

Wait, he says that moving plot into the future was a mistake, that Deus Ex was "grounded" and familiar to the player instead of very futuristic IW - then why Human Revolution and Mankind Divided looks much more futuristic than original Deus Ex, even if they are set 20 years earlier?

If you compare present day to HR/MKD vs comparing it to IW what he says makes sense and still holds up

HR was made 8 years ago, but in 8 years we will reach the HR timeline, and honestly I dont think that we will see broad use of cybernetic implants, combat robots and all that futuristic stuff.

Original Deus Ex makes more sense - at least we have 30+ years gap.

Console faggotry

I'm not talking about realism in our time, the original Deus Ex was futuristic but with shit that still makes sense and doesn't look outlandishly weird. HR has that same style wheras IW looks fucking weird

What said, as well as HR and MD being developed by a completely different set of people.

It was alright. At least Egypt was comfy.

>Why is this game so bad?
Bland main character, bland story where your choices don't matter because the other side will keep forgiving you despite bitching at you, and the levels are so formulaic in their design approach (there's always a vent/door/discussion route within 20 meters of the objective, and every npc quest target offers you a counter-offer) it hurts.

But DX has "more dark more realistic" look while HR looks more... artsy. All this renaissance style etc. And more futuristic.

Human Revolution was made by a pretentious team of devs who were more interested in huffing their own farts over making an interesting game

i thought it was alright 2bh. better than DEMD but thats not saying much.

I do replay this one occasionally just to see the continuation of the original story. Plus you can kill american asuka if you want.

I just realised that I was born the same year that Adam Jensen was born. Oh...
