it's going to be shit isn't it?
>>335749563
The last one was shit and the one before it was shit so, yeah, it's going to be shit.
All it has to do is be on par with human revolution and I'll be happy
>>335749869
I have a feeling we are looking at another me3 here.
they are going to dumb down everything remove more mechanics and pander to social justice with muh transhumanism and hope that's enough for it to sell.
>>335749563
I hope not, but only time will tell.
>>335750128
Unlike ME3 though this is actually made by the same people as the last one.
>>335749810
>the last one was shit

>>335749563
>going anywhere near squenix products after just cause 3 and hitman
>>335749563
There hasn't been any news since the delay announcement, that isn't good news, is it?
>>335750128
>pander to social justice with muh transhumanism
What the fuck? The last one had much heavier overtones of social justice in their promo videos (remember the asian lady dying in the gutter from her augments) and social justice barely appeared in the game
>>335749869
this to be honest family
>>335749563
I doubt it. The last one was insanely good and all the same people are working on it. As long as JJB is doing the art, I'm happy.
>>335750128
delete this. don't give them any ideas
>>335751372
a six month delay is already bad enough and 50 dollar season trash is a foregone conclusion. this will be yet another game to put on the wait for complete edition list.
>>335751694
The last game didn't have a 50 dollar season pass, just one piece of very substantial DLC. Why is it a 'forgone conclusion' that this game will have one?
>>335749810
>The last one was shit
You better be talking about The Fall.
>>335751410
the last one literally used the phrase "mechanical apartheid". Dunno why retards think this one bringing sjw stuff to the table is a new thing for the series.
>>335751908
the dlc was garbage tho
>>335749563
nope. gonna be good.
>>335750128
holy shit this sjw boogeyman stuff needs to stop.
pull your head out of your ass!
it has denuvo, so by the law of all denuvo games are bad it has to hold up
Is inventory tetris back?
>>335753864
>the dlc was garbage tho
I disagree, it was much meatier than the usual DLC fare. Plus it riffed on MGS2, which was neat
>>335754130
Yes, but not on console it seems
>>335754952
>neat
no.
They'd have to gut everything core to the game to near Dead Space 3 levels if they want to make this a bad game. The core gameplay in Human Revolution is super strong; if they just copy pasted it into Mankind Divided it'd already be a 7/10 on my scale.
I like HR, but my min-maxer's mindset made me compulsively do a 100% nonlethal, undetected run in order to generate the maximum experience. But it was fucking boring. They gave me waaaay more options for blasting fools than they did for gently putting them to sleep.
Everyone I could punch for EXP, I did.
>>335753864
That wasn't the last one, HR. This game, MD, is the one that's making everyone in Prague black and bringing up the aparthield meme while a rich brown woman whines to you about oppression. I wonder if they did this because morons complained about Latisha in HR.
>square enix
>denovu
0/7 trashed before even released.
>>335754952
How did it riff on MGS2?
>>335755779
Latisha wasn't their choice. In the commentary they said they had a limited selection of VAs available and needed the lines fast. Was an actual black chick doing the lines, too.
>>335749563
After Thi4f, I wouldn't count on it. I want it to be good, but I'm scared.
>>335755903
Tanker in the middle of a storm, sections that were on deck stealthily taking out guards while getting pummelled by rain
>>335755776
I was all stealth until Malik got downed when I snapped and killed everyone because I actually really liked her character and didn't want her dead.
One of the few times I actually changed my play style because of the story in a game. Worth losing some exp for it.
>>335755961
That is why the people who complained about it were morons. Nothing seemed weird to me when a homeless woman was speaking like that. I can't believe some people even saw an issue. Every other black chick in the game spoke normally.
>>335756052
a lot of stealth games have that.
also, mgs2 is the worst metal gear.
>>335756052
>>335756052
I see.
I liked the DLC as a whole, but it had too many backtracking segements.
When they put it into the main game with the rerelease, it makes the story climax too early. The singapore base and panchaea become snooze fests after you've done the DLC.
>>335756052
Ah I forgot mgs2 was the only other video game in existence that had guards out in the rain

>Implying you didn't ineffectively try to snipe everyone with the silenced sniper and fail terribly to save her
>Implying you even knew you could save her until you replayed the game on a combat focused run
>>335756331
Learn to read, on the deck of a tanker in the middle of the ocean. Yes, it's pretty much the only game that offers that, to my knowledge.
>>335756325
I never played it integrated into the story, so I wouldn't know.
Literally all they have to do is copy the gameplay from the last game, add some new cool robot elements, some half assed story and theyd have an at least decent game
>>335756513

You're even worse than him, butthurt fag.

I think it'll be good at the very least. Only worry I have right now is that there'll be so many new augments that shit'll become muddled where they could just have fewer ones with more useful applications. I mean, what the fuck is the point of stun-knuckles? What do they do that a stun gun can't?
>>335756513
Why would I not try to save her? The scene was copied straight out of the original Deus Ex where you had the choice to stay and defend your brother when he tells you to leave.
>>335757864
It was nothing like that scene.
>>335758069
>Same series
>"Just get out of here JC, don't worry about me"
>Turns out he lives if you don't leave
>"Just get out of here Jensen, don't worry about me"
>Turns out you can save her
Even if you've never played the original you'd have to be braindead to just walk away without even fucking trying.
>>335757768
>>335749563
I don't think so, they were very open to criticism with the last game, and acknowledged the problems with it, so I think this one will be even better than the last.
>>335758232
>Implying you didn't try and just didn't kill them fast enough.
Everyone on /v/ acts like they saved her the first time.
>>335758361
>That ability that's just the vanguard charge from Mass Effect except way more stylish
>>335758485
i spent like a dozen reloads trying to route it pacifist because i'm a perfectionist asshole
>>335754062
>!
ugh
>>335758485
Because a lot of people did, myself included. By that point I had saved up a shitload of grenades and ammo because I had been non-lethal so far. I saved my game, killed them as quickly as possible, and it worked out well so I just moved on since the non-lethal achievements didn't matter to me and I was only in it for the challenge. The game runs off a Bethesda level save system where nothing you do has any consequence, why the fuck would you not just keep trying?
>>335758674
>I was told I can save her beforehand and knew I had to disregard the playstyle I had used for the entire game for this specific segment.
Okay.
>>335758968
>I'm such a retard that I just blithely follow commands in a fucking RPG of all genres and don't experiment
>There's no way anybody could figure out something so simple on their own without being told about it like I was
I didn't know people so stupid existed.
>>335758968
It's not impossible to do it pacifist, it just takes a little while to figure out how to do it optimally. It's not directly said that you can save her or not, but why wouldn't you try? Worst case scenario, you disable/kill everything in the area and get some bullshit cop-out cutscene to be mad at - best case, she lives.
It's not like experimentation is a bad thing.
All I want is Deus Ex Human Revolution with smoother animations, a better engine, and Malik to come back.
Also, maybe change Adam's face a bit; give him a better beard or something.
>>335758661
>ugh
>>335759284
It's pretty hard to do, I put 50 or something attempts into getting it on PS3. And then achievement didn't pop when I finished the game, so obviously I inadvertently killed someone.
>>335759187
You clearly spoiled yourself on what to expect and now you're acting like some super badass because you prepared for an invisible time limit going into the segment.
I bet you had no problems with A Quiet Exit, too. This is what happens when you spoil yourself.
>>335759485
Worst girl is confirmed dead.
>>335749563
No.
/v/ said the same thing last time and was proved wrong.
They can only improve from HR.
>>335759756
https://youtu.be/Iae1CgkSpng?t=308
There's still hope man.
>>335759485
2 of those thing are confirmed.
Better engine.(made exclusively for the game)
https://community.eidosmontreal.com/blog/dawn-engine
And better animation in the E3 gameplay.
>>335759714
Not who you're responding to, but I went into 'A Quiet Exit' in my sneaking suit with all silent weapons and Battle Armor not even researched. Absolutely fucked.
>>335759671
Yeah, it's a pain in the ass but it's not impossible, probably much easier if you have mouse-aim because I distinctly remember having to flick around a lot. There is some weirdness with pacifist though (I think it's mostly ragdoll physics weirdness causing it, but I'm not sure), I got it once on one run and not on the next despite not being aware of killing anyone with anything and using entirely nonlethal weapons the entire time. Would be nice if there was a little tracker or statistics menu in the game so I could make sure I haven't accidentally killed someone.
>>335759714
Why would you not even try? If you're physically unable to save her for whatever reason, you probably break something if you clear the area fast enough.
>>335760072

>>335759485
Why does everyone want Malik back? She'll just be shoehorned in for fan service and it'll be awful.
>>335760147
Right, I regret trying it on console because that obviously made it a lot harder. Each run I would get slightly better at learning the route, kind of Dark Soul-ish gameplay. My big issue I was running into was EMP-grenading the bots, they explode and if they kill any guards, you don't get pacifist. I should try it again sometime, I remember it being fun. Stats would be super-helpful, hopefully in MD.
>>335756513
I saved her my first time, it took like 10 tries, but it never seemed impossible.
Had to murder some fuckers, though.
>>335760406
HR was pretty weak on the waifu game, it needs to step up and casually insert some nice grills in it
>>335760519
Statistics are always neat.
>>335758485
I did save her the first time. I honestly can't remember if someone told me it was possible beforehand, but I bought the game at launch and finished it in a day, so I think I did it myself.
>>335760330
Looks ridiculously good
>>335760569
Agreed
>>335760330
The world looks much much more detailed, but the real question is the interaction with the environment.
Shit was static as fuck in HR.
I saw that you now can destroy covers
They've taken their time with it HR was a good, solid RPG. I'm cautiously optimistic that they won't fuck it up entirely.
>>335760406
Because she's got a lot of history with Jensen, is an accomplished pilot who has hidden augmentations so she's not a pariah, and one of the top pilots trusted by David Sarif himself has talents that could be put to use by the Illuminati/task force. She's also probably the only person besides Pritchard (who's a dick with a heart of gold) who actually gives a shit whether you live or die.
>>335760569
>not waifu-ing pritchard
I can't wait to get my hands on it to be honest, august 23rd can't come soon enough.
I hope they won't spoil too much during E3.
>>335761009
A man of patrician taste
>>335761009
>being a gay
>>335749563
It honestly can't be shit. The story could be 100% liquid garbage and I wouldn't care. The graphics could look worse and I still wouldn't care.
The core gameplay of games like Deus Ex and Deus Ex: Human Revolution is so fun and exciting to me that they could literally litter the levels linearly and I would still give it a 8/10 as long as the gameplay is just as good,
I've never played a bad stealth FPS.
>>335754062
no it's not like IGDA is pushing literal Marxism
>>335751193
The last one was The Fall which was shit
>you play as Jensen again
>he actually dies midgame
>new MC is introduced
>>335756052
Sounds like second mission from Splinter Cell CT
>>335761750
>Jensen dies midgame
>You take over as Paul Denton
>>335749563
It's going to be excellent.
>>335760531
How did you know she could be saved? Most people just assumed she was meant to die.
>>335760330
>tfw piss filter makes a return
>>335762040
Well, jensen still has his yellow shades on.
It's coherence.
Maybe this time you'll be able to turn it on or offAnd he will have his shades on or off depending on what your choose in the options
>>335759714
>>335760112
That mission made me so butthurt
>>335762030
there were a reasonable number of enemies
I'm good at HR-type stealth games, so I figured it was surmountable with some effort.
>>335762615
I had to restart the mission and sit on the road for an hour while I developed rocket launchers and battle dress.
>>335761750
I could totally see them pull an MGS2. Don't know how I'd feel about that though.
HR and THIAF were shit so take a guess
>>335762030
Because I wasn't about to let her fucking leave my life.
I had already lost too much.
>>335750128
>pander to social justice with muh transhumanism
wat
>every new game that comes out gets the tor treatment
when will it end?
>>335763575
It's become board culture. It's ingrained in us to assume everything will be bad. On the plus side, being pessimistic means you can never be disappointed and only ever surprised in a good way.
>Story revolving around how people still don't accept muh cyborgs.
Nobody cares, JC Denton didn't deal with this retarded pseudo-apartheid shit because it's fucking BO-RING.
>>335763826
>enjoy the augmented life before great chimp out
>tin foiling payed out and you're not affected thanks to not upgrading to windows 20.1
>people now see you as potential murderer even if you're the nicest guy around simply because your have visible augs
What's wrong with coherence in a story?
>>335760330
With all the effort put into atmosphere/ambiance, there better be enough non-combat situations to just walk around in and enjoy the setting
>>335760759
Underrepresented opinion
>>335764229
Not him, but I just don't care about their racism theme. It was funny seeing every other chink in hengsha call Jensen a gwailo, but they didn't need to make a game out of it.
>>335763247
>HR
>shit
I mean the original will always be the greatest, but I thought HR did it justice
>>335764607
It's not "racism" or whatever you call it.
It's the effect of what happened in HR.
>yeah, most of first world population got completely fucked over but lets ignore all of that shit
It's like nuking a place and the next day people are just fine and don't remember being nuked, it's completely dumb
>>335762030
>Most people just assumed she was meant to die
Because theyre used to modern games
>>335762242
>>335763575
Its a natural reaction to professional hypesters/gaming news. not to mention most new games ARE bad compare to what /v/ is used to
