Excellent remaster of a game that was already great. I have been playing AofE 2 for a good 15 years now and it never gets old. This edition improves on the graphics, includes all previously made DLC campaigns and also introduces 4 new campaigns. Joy to play.

Very nice strategy. Follows the Spellforce genre. Interesting campaign. I am a RTS veteran but playing even on Hard is really hard, so if you like a challenge this is great.

All time classic. Deus Ex but improved on all parameters. Better graphics, expanded locations. Increased difficulty for the most hardened veterans. Plus achivements!! Love it.

Excellent game from PB. If you like Gothic and Risen, you will love this. Massive world to see and 3 different factions that play quite differently. You can gather, craft, brew potions and use a freaking jetpack!!

Overall a nice addition to the Mankind Divided story. Reunting with Prichard is fun. The DLC has a decent amount of content. Perfect for a stealthy hacker build and the Blade facility is pretty large. The Breach element is really pretty small for those who are not a fan (I am not either LOL). Most of it is just classic Deus Ex..crawling thru vents, spying on guards, disabling security. The story is pretty good too as the Palisade hides many dirty secrets. It is rather short. Probably 5 hours at most doing everything and reading every book and PDA. For something that short, my only gripe I guess is the price. $12 bucks is kinda steep for something this short. I do think its a "must read" though for Deus ex fans, because the dlc does seem to set us up for the next and final DLC coming out in the winter. Lots of hints to the Rabiah AUG city and Stanton Dowd...I have a feeling we will see more when the next one comes out. That next one better be nice and long though dammit!!

As a longtime fan of Deus Ex, going back to the original in 2000, I may be a little biased, but overall DE: Mankind Divided is a good game. Not great, but good and I'll tell you why. As soon as I started playing, I could not put it down. I clocked in at 40 something hours for the main story, doing all the sidequests and reading every E-book I can. The game has amazing atmosphere and draws you in. It encourages you to develop your cool new augmentations and use them to hack stuff, turn invisible, jump to places you could not previously get to. Prague, the main hub, has a ton to do with many sidequests. Main missions and side missions feel alive and you feel like you actually make an impact once you complete them especially if you "do it right", using the CASIE mod to convince some character the folly of their ways.

The main negative is that the game is simply too damn short. Go back to the original Deus Ex and see how long it takes to complete, while doing side quests and reading every book. I definitely think it would take longer that 30-40 hours. The ending feels cut off...ok so you got the main bad guy, but wait I thought there were all these illuminati and billionaires pulling strings in the shadows? You never get a chance to go after them, even though the game introduces them. Namely Bob Page, Lucius DeBeers and Manderley. Seems like we got some big dumb tank out of the picture, but the real culprits got away. Um maybe another title 3 years from now and another $60 is what we will have to spend to get the REAL ending?
