  1. Trolls are everywhere. I suspect that anyone who claims this is not Deus Exy hasn't either played the original at all, or certainly not since 2005.
  2. Either I completely missed that aspect of the good old days, or they just never existed. The amount of mods, addons and gamemodes added by Epic for Unreal Tourmanent 1 is a good example. All right, that would've been the time period I was essentially completely away from gaming, so it's possible I actually did miss them. That, or everybody in this thread will be able to put ~5 examples together, after thinking really hard.

  4. Nearing the end. Let me rephrase that (since I can't edit any longer), I had a memory failure: Still some way to go!
  5. I assume Sony got tired of Acti's (and Bethesda's) and Microsoft's "special relationship" and made it financially worth their while. That said, I don't believe it.
  6. I snuck in through the balcony.
  7. See, I negated that entire thing and got him with the typhoon. I can't believe everyone didn't see the a mile off.
  8. It's only scrambled if you do silly things before. Yep. I generally kill her at the 747, though. To which I say: Feel free to run away. Can you run away at Area 51 too? IIRC, a bug makes it possible for you to avoid him, but it was definitely not intentional.
  9. Meh, it wouldn't be a deus ex game if it didn't have boss fights for people to complain about. And to the usual comments of "laputan machine" and "flatlander woman", I reply with Walton Simons.
  10. I doubt that, they managed just fine for the rest of the game.
  11. Well, the ARG got finished faster than they'd planned, and vg247 leaked the announce already a couple of days ago, so I guess they figured better to announce now than just play sourd muet (yes, that's a DX1 reference) for a couple of days. Still, the fact that I won't be able to play for the next three weeks is really firing me up for some more..
  12. That be the previously rumoured dlc announcement. Day 1 (need I even say it?)

  14. They actually used the "awesome button" in marketing?! I've been under the impression it was another one of the gaming forum "witticisms"? That's a Bio pr guy. **** That's THE bioware pr guy, their director of marketing. I know I have advanced mental circuitry for blocking out idiotic advertising, but I had no idea they were this advanced.

  16. Okay ? That pretty much was my point. Although I would find it funny if EM's next DX game ended up as Invisible War 2, heh. It was? Ok, I'll make a deal: if everyone else gets their medication updated, I'll go get my eyesight checked.
  17. Nah, I'm just stupid in the way that when someone has made something awesome, I like to give them the benefit of the doubt that they won't automatically forget everything about it and start making crap instead. Funnily, I'm only rarely very disappointed, with Invisible War being an exceptional example. :D
  18. Apparently some areas (the Nordics) too, get all the preorder dlc in the normal pack, as well. Probably to boost sales in the areas that could order from the UK for a lower price. I actually ran out of money once in Shanghai. Bought 2x praxis kits from the Clinic and paid 5k in one of the quests Threw a lot of money at the homeless lady in Detroit, too. Like 6000. Was really hurting for cash for most of the game after that.
  19. I don't get it either. They're trying too hard to pull the "cool indie guys" card with their trash talking of BioWare & Bethesda, only to push out a title that's even more dumbed down than the aforementioned devs' latest titles... and somehow they get a free pass for all their histrionics while no-nonsense developers like Piranha Bytes, Larian Studios or *gasp* Reality Pump are all but ignored. Confirmation bias is an amazing thing
  20. We are now treating Morgoth's paranoid delusions as a source of news? We get a news item that says they are expanding the size of the studio and it suddenly means yearly Deus Ex releases? Just because they aren't owned by 2k? You people need to have your medication adjusted. Well nobody's gonna be surprised if this turns out to be true. Well, except less sharp people like you maybe... I'm gonna give you the opportunity for a better comeback than "ur dumb1" before I answer.

  22. Kinda puts CD Projekt fapping to 1 million sales in perspective. Yeah, and I read somewhere, they wanna make a remake of Witcher 1 now. That's some really well-thought out investment there. No thanks. Consoles would be the key word, there.
  23. Also unfair in that Obsidian had multiple shipped projects, while this was Eidos Montr
