I just finished Mankind Divided earlier this month. I think it has higher highs than Human Revolution but suffers from being the planned “middle game” in the trilogy. It has better gameplay than HR, some great levels and some really good side quests. Also a really well executed apartheid theme that played out really well.
I definitely recommend you playing it. It’s not gonna be OG Deus Ex, but it’s a good game.
First your regular articles, and now an in-depth interview. And you dare suggest your not a proper gaming journalist?
Love your work as always.
The depressed cynic in me says the billionaires will just find new tax havens and other embezzling ways around it. But it’s a good initiative and I pray it actually leads to something tangible.
Thank you, I’ll keep it in mind! I might slot it in as a palate cleanser between longer games.
Well, there is time to lose. 7ish hours main story and 20+ completionist is a pretty wide range. How many hours did it take for you?
This is the second really positive review of the game I’ve read the past few days. I might actually slot it into my backlog now.
Samantha Béart (who plays Karlach in the game), Theo Solomon (Wyll) and Dave Jones (Halsin) were asked how the success of the game had changed their lives and careers.
Okay listen I don’t want to sound rude, but I’m not that surprised. Maybe Karlach deserves a bit more recognition but while both Wyll and Halsin were both fine and perfectly adequate, I can’t say that either was the kind of memorable performance that gets you tons of new roles. Though it’s also in part due to the script and direction of course.
I’m interested in trying Shenmue after it was (to me rather surprisingly) awarded the “Most Influential Game of All Time” award by BAFTA.
How do you play it there’s days? Physical Dreamcast? Can you play it on PC? Emulator?
Yeah, I believe Warren Spector has said before that the premise of Deus Ex was literally “what it every conspiracy theory was true”, and not really anything deeper than that.
