25 years later still one of the best games ever made!

I never asked for this

Revision is a great mod. I played the original Deus Ex many many years ago, otherwise i played multiple times through Human Revolution and Mankind Divided. That being said, i think Revision does a great job overall to somewhat remaster the original, while still maintaining the charm of the original game and the gameplay systems.

I honestly love the new remastered soundtrack and the new levels. The latter have a lot more fidelity now, without it being "too much". The HD models and textures for the most part blend it suprisingly well and there is rarely a case of "style breaking". Overall the graphical improvements are done carefully without changing the original games design language too much.

Gameplaywise i think Revision improves a lot of things, without, again, going too overboard. Many Remaster mods for other games tend to try to do "too much". Changing the original games core design. While here it is usually just a few additions, changes and fixes. Nothing too much. It stays very true to the original.

I also like many of the achievements, and that you can always track them freely in the stats menu during a playthrough, this helps a lot. No more "Oh you DID trigger an alarm and just didn't notice it! Now you played through this long game and well... no achievement for you!"

And, kinda ironically, you have a lot of options in this mod. Not a fan of the HD Models and Textures? Turn them off! Not a fan of the new maps? Switch back to the original ones! Soundtrack? Switch to the Original or PS2s Soundtrack. Want the pure Vanilla gameplay? There is an option for that.

On the other hand, if the game for veterans is too boring, there are many modifiers you can turn on at the start of a new playthrough. Explode when a camera triggers an alarm? Being able to only carry one item? Turn away from an NPC, just for an Agent taking it's place? It's all here. All the choices!

And if thats not enough, Revision bundles a lot of other mods together. Including the "Lay D Denton" project, which enables you to play as a female JC Denton! Or why not give other gameplay changing mods like "Shifter" or "Biomod" a try? Or play with Human Revolutions XP and Augmentation system.

It's honestly really really impressive how much effort the team put into this mod, how well it blends with the original game, improving it greatly and how much replay value you have in here. Even including an New Game+ option, though it sadly disables achievements.

I can easily recommend this to players wanting to finally give the original a try, but also to Deus Ex Veterans who played through it a hundred times.

amazing retro game
