did deus ex predict the future ?
>>320088643
It and HR have. There's literally an article where some people interviewed the DXHR devs about this exact thing.

>>320089273
woah
i mean, i guess all sorts of academics already predicted this but i never saw a videogame dare to go that deep

2000
didn't they also say that the twin towers went down due to terrorists ?
>>320089552
Yeah but it's not like 9/11 was the first time anyone attacked the twin towers. People had been "predicting" that for a long time
>>320089354
It's a very limited version of what I read awhile back. There's a more in depth interview somewhere with the predictions.

Yes
Some conspiracies are more or less true.
>>320089712
thank you
>>320089654
i guess
too bad the twin towers were probably more iconic (at least to me) than the empire state building
>>320088643
Well, the games were based largely on actual conspiracy theories and hypothetical near-future technologies.
>>320089654
same, its like everyone forgets the one in 93 or something.
Why do these threads always devolve into DX circle-jerk lore discussions and not how well implemented it's mechanics, levels or gameplay are? It feels like every "golden-age" Western game brought up on /v/ is one thats ambitious but is always marred by flaws.
For example, the spy drone was cool as fuck and gave you an easier time on the larger levels in the game.
>>320089552
Yeah but the bigger deal was made out of the statue of liberty being destroyed

>Why do people who like deus ex talk about deus ex
End yourself weeb
anna navarre was is still my waifu to this day
>>320090343

Because the story/lore is as interesting if not more than the gameplay.
Something not many games can attain.
>>320089939
Come to think of it, real conspiracy theories are actually a big disappointment compared to Deus Ex games.
I imagine the games would be much less interesting if every single plot point turned out to be "the jews did it!"

Because that's the topic of the thread?

>>320090343
Because mechanics aren't very fun to talk about.
>>320088643
Yes, very accurately.
