Is it worth buying the Director's Cut of Human Revolution if I already have the regular edition? I take it there's no way to merely upgrade, but the game is 75% off at 5.49 which is about what I'd expect the upgrade to cost anyway.

It'll be my first time playing through, I'm playing through the series and I'm on Invisible Bore now.

If you don't want to spend 6 dollars, then why don't you just pirate it.

>>321917408
nah, the director's cut version is based on an older build of the game so it's actually worse
>>
>>321919125
Wrong. It's objectively superior. No arguments possible.
>>
>>321917408
If you didn't have the regular edition I would have recommended it, but in this case fuck it just play what you already have dude

You can't use any of the actually great ENBs with it, so no, it's shit.

>mattering more than Missing Link DLC being fully and seamlessly integrated into the game
>mattering more than developer commentary nodes

Graphics whores disgust and revolt me.

I could go on, but I feel this is enough till I have to boot up both and take screenshot proof of all of these flaws just to prove a point at this rate as I doubt you'll take easily google find able proof and on the value forums listed issues with the director's cut as truth till done.

Literally irrelevant
>EXP is back towards the base release, making anything non-stealth stupid as you earn far less EXP as a result
You're limiting yourself because of minmax instincts. It's plenty fun to do stuff other than stealth and I don't need EXP to motivate me to do it.
>You can't turn off the DLC's at will, meaning you'll always start with the tranq rifle + the shotgun if you want them or not.
Wrong
>The fucking sound glitches galore
Literally none.
>Lighting issues
Oh you mean like removing that hideous piss filter?

Literally none of these concerns outweigh the improvements. At all. Even slightly.

That's 100% true though. You can not turn that off, nor any of the other DLC's at that like you can with the first release.
The only boon here is the slightly redone bossfights so stealth don't have to use the given explosive charges if they rather not, and Missing link is part of the game.
The rest of those issues show that it's a lazy ass redux and the fact that they never fixed it after the fact says a lot. The way you're defending it pretty much comes off more as a marketer then a consumer as well.

Yes you can. You can drop them on the ground and never pick them up again
>>
>>321921249

What

The fuck is this bullshit

I never ever got a fucking tranq rifle. I started up with the combat rifle and later picked up a pistol and shotgun off enemies. You are retarded
>>
>>321917408
The good: Lots of little improvements and tweaks, like the fact you automatically regenerate both your base aug batteries instead of just one

The bad: It forces you to play the DLC
