Close, it's a kids cut-out animation.

How come kids always get the best shows?

Currently playing the first Deus Ex, my favourite game of all time.

Even though most of the voice acting is pretty bad, I still love this game.

It's one of the few games that actually ages well.

Jack and Jill went up the hill to have a bit of fun,

Jill the dill, forgot her pill and she had a baby son. :)

Finished Deus Ex HR, nice game but CDPR do better stuff :P

The game is region barred and I had to wait until it hit stores in my country..just ordered it anyways and I am extremely happy about the price parity of the purchase... its INR 899.. :)

I bought it on Steam.
Good stuff

Long time no hear, are you OK?

I hope it's nothing serious and that you're just having trouble logging in? :)

Yeah, I am playing it too and compared to The Witcher 2, especially in terms of character's depth & personality, DE is a fekking joke, srsly.

It has strong points, augments are nice, controls are sharp and well thought of and stealth missions are really satysfying, but overall it's no more than 7/10 in my book.

Oh, and the AI...it's plain dumb.

just finished the game now (had got my copy on Friday evening_night and the damn mandatory steam requirement).

I'd rate the game 6/10 for a PC game, if I played the game on a console I would rate it 8/10.

Deus EX Human Revolution is a totally dumb'ed down console game, felt the game was extremely restricted on all fronts.

*may contain spoilers*

What I liked:
1. Sounds and Music
2. Starting cinematic when Adam gets operated and the game opens us with an FMV...
3. Bullet curving Mod for Combat Rifle/Machine Pistol (yeah, I liked this.. :D )

What I didn't like:
1. level/stage design is constricted!, small in comparision (expected it would be more of open spaces, the NY sewers in the first Deus Ex game owns all the locations in Deux Ex HR)
2. Most of the alternative paths in level/stage design appear to be placed precisely to only harbor that specific augmentation(s) and the way its placed in the game mentions that its there only for this requirement. (the freedom of choosing alternative paths appear to be, not so rewarding!..)
3. Didn't like the way augmentation's were on the character!, just feels the same as assigning skill points to stats (I liked the old search unknown aug for x aug slots with x aug upgrades left for the character, damn..I want it back..)
4. *BIG SPOILER* Game ending..shit.....its bad...the different endings are placed on BIG RED detonator buttons on BIG_something_boxes connected by thick bundles of WIRES..and a 3rd party keeps telling you the choices.. I was like.. what the FUCK*..
5. No replay value; apart from completing all the achievements on steam. I basically had all the required augmentations and even backtracked same levels with all the* variety of infiltration. Even backtracked with different choices, only to notice that they didn't have much effect in the game/story.
6. And yes, really BAD AI. I was surprised the game NPC's behave worse than the ones in first Commando game , one instance I camped behind a door and gunned down all the hostiles in an area with a 9mm pistol! (cough cough). The AI's don't even put an alarm when they see a dead body..sheesh.. but their AIM is DEAD accurate (99.999%).

Game finished, time to install Deus EX 1 from my old scratched CD and play it again.. ^_^

Buahahaha

Well about Deus Ex. I see 6 and 7. I have to say I would probably give it 9. I was totally sold about it :P
-Music
-Visuals
-Story
-Jensen and Cassan were totally my favorite characters.


(I'm probably pretty easy to please as customer.)
and there weren't really anything which "broke" my enjoyment. Apart from Spoiler Boss fights, Fedorova was quite hard for me but finally I got it done. The Hive was pretty cool place but compared The Afterlife Club in mass effect 2. simply put couldn't beat it.

If I should say something bad about the game.. Err Oh yeah shame I couldn't do anything in brothel(s) D:

We've been spoiled by The Witcher series, it seems. XD

Oh, forgot to add - Jensen' voice is ridiculous. The guy sounds like he added gravel to his cereal for breakfast.

I found Megan so annoying.

Not just her personality, but her stupid clothes and hairstyle.

And although I liked the game overall, the graphics and the engine are terrible.

I rather liked Megan's hairstyle and clothing, actually. In the artbook, it explains that the artists deliberately used different fashion styles for the different factions. People who are pro-augmentation wear clothes in a neo-Renaissance-style, with large, frilly collars and ruffles on their clothes. In contrast, people who advocate against augmentation wear clothes more similar to the styles of today's fashion (i.e. t-shirts and jeans).

I agree that the character models and the facial animations/lip-syncing were not the best though. Their physical gesturing during conversations also looks pretty awkward in a lot of cases. Dragon Age: Origins still holds the record for me as having the best faces/lip-syncing in any game I've ever played.
