Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Will it suck?

[WetWired]

So we probably all know or heard how Deus Ex 2 (Invisible War) didn't come close to living up to the Deus Ex name, how it was hampered by the XBox, and so forth. Deus Ex 3 is finally coming out this month, and there's been plenty of videos and propoganda released. Will it fly or flop?

Fly. Chruser claims it "is pretty awesome!"

[WetWired]

One could argue that Deus Ex 2 was "pretty awesome.". After all, it is only by comparison with its predecesor that it was a disapointment.

[!King_Amazon!]

Well from what I recall Chruser didn't care for Invisible War, so his opinion of Human Revolution being "pretty awesome!" is probably in comparison to Deus Ex in some way

I found Invisible War rather forgettable.


Wait, what are we talking about?

[WetWired]

TBH, I can't wait to get my hands on it. It's unfortunate that it doesn't come out a week earlier, though.

According to Chruser, there's a "demo" out that includes the first city, which is Detroit. I doubt the demo is necessarily legal, but if you plan on buying the game when it is released anyway, there shouldn't be a huge moral objection to downloading and playing it. The only reason I haven't tried it yet myself is because I don't want to play through the content twice.

Chruser further explained his claims recently. He specifically said that DX:HR is a lot more like Deus Ex than DX:IW was. I have pretty high expectations now.

[WetWired]

If it's much like the first game, it should bear replaying.

[Vault Dweller]

I'm definitely looking forward to this.

Between this and Skyrim, my marriage is bound to fail.

[WetWired]

Probably :p
