Status: Completed

This game was so much better the second time around. My only real issue is that I played the director's cut, which forces you to go through a terrible DLC just to finish the game. This franchise had so much potential, but they completely dropped the ball with the mediocre sequel. Maybe I’ll replay it someday to see if it’s as underwhelming as I remember.

Are you negative reviewers out of your minds? How TF was this made in 2013. My mouth is gaping cos I've been gob-smacked by the production value of this masterpiece

The controls are a clunky, the guns don't show their ammo count in the menu and it only takes a few shots to die when I need to hit the enemies 6 or 7 times just to get them down. Half-way through the game, I tapped out- I got so annoyed with the way the game plays that I couldn't go through with it. I could be having fun with a game, but instead, I'm constantly facing user-interface obstacles and odds that are stacked against the player in such a way that it's not fun, it's just annoying.

An amazing game on an inferior port. I never asked for this.

This is the Wii U version of the game which has downgraded visuals and the original is not available for purchase anymore. This version is riddled with stutters, frame drops and inconsistent frame latency. After following all the tweaks listed on PCGamingWiki, I didnot manage to fix these issues.

Unfortunately I have to put a thumbs down, don't get me wrong, this is a 10/10 game if you can manage to find an original copy.

you got amd? well ♥♥♥♥ you, you cant play this shii

So called "out-of-box, genre defining" stealth game, which doesn't allow stealth routes other than pre-mediated few. Moving objects to stay hidden doesn't work at all since it somehow detects you with tiniest cracks. Might have been a good game in my taste if I had played this back then, jumping on the nostalgia hype train; but at the moment, this game aged like ♥♥♥♥.

Deus Ex!
