There’s an indie game called Shadows of Doubt that does the whole immersive sim in a big hub stuff pretty well. Kind of jank and unfinished, but I think it’s the closest thing I’ve seen in recent times to Deus Ex.
NON SERVIAM.

it’s less groundbreaking in context than I think people give it credit for.
Are you seriously going to tell me that the open-ended structure of Deus Ex, coupled with the RPG elements and interactive environments wasn’t groundbreaking for the time? There wasn’t anything quite like it back then, so much so it basically created the genre of Immersive Sims as we know it today.
Hell, you could trace basically any first person shooter with RPG elements from after 2000 back to Deus Ex, it’s the gold standard for a reason. The closest thing we had to this kind of game back then was Strife, a Doom clone with a basic quest system and inventory, even System Shock 2 is less dynamic and open-ended than Deus Ex.
It’s been a while since I’ve watched these, his video on the original is spot on, but I really dislike his takes on Human Revolution, felt like he was mostly nitpicking for the sake of nitpicking, especially the story bits.
The GEP gun is the most silent way to eliminate Manderley.
I thought Lazudark was supposed to be Obsydia lol
The soviets had no sense of fashion at all smh…
On a serious note, you’d think Belarus nowadays would be less keen on supporting Russia given their history.
Sorry, but no amount of context would ever make Wesley not annoying to me. I don’t hate the character, I just don’t like him, period. 🤷
Fair.
I just always found him annoying and nothing much else.
Really? What’s to like about him?
What a horrible day to have eyes.
Stone Cold Steve Austin.
WHAT?
I’ll be continuing my unarmed only New Vegas playthrough. One punch manning bastards into piles of goop is incredibly satisfying, no joke.
I’m surprised there aren’t more FOSS touhou games, Zun himself is very open to the idea of derivative works, including paid ones.
Depends. If I don’t need to wake up early usually around 1-2am.
At this point I don’t know which country is more ridiculous, Israel or North Korea. They’re basically the same, a tiny pariah state barking loud at anyone that looks at them while getting support from a rich neighbor.
That’s fucking creepy as shit for some reason.
He’s the angry MMO neeeerd.
Uh-huh… I wonder what their definition of “”“terrorism”“” is.
Not even 6 hours.
