Forums - Gaming Discussion - Deus Ex Human Revolution: will it live up to expectations

around a month to go before this title is released across ps3/360 and pc platforms and its currently over a year since that epic e3 trailer that stole the show and was more like a Movie trailer than a game one. And from the gameplay footage it appears that they are really staying true to that of the first deus Ex game, tho it is werid that the technology looks far superior to that of the orginal despite being a prequel but that only shows how far we have come in 11 years. Other than that it looks pretty soild and has been getting pretty rave reviews but will the consumer buy it and would the rest of the game as whole get the reviewers praise and live up to expectations?

Dues Ex Original is a fun game, yet to finish but i have already enjoyed everything so far, but it is a show of everything that is wrong with modern shooters today in were a 11 year old game has more advance gameplay than the latest high budget call of duty. Also dont understand why developers have mostly forgot about open ended missions and no linear ways of competing a objective using your current tools and perfered play style for a linear highly scripted shooter gallery that is so linear it beats of the point of not being on rails. 

So i really hope that this game turns out really good and it sells like iphones coated in cociane so developers adopt such play style and it becomes the norm for first person shooters because its much better than the current norm we have now which is a slightly more advanced from a 4 hour cutscene dotted with quick time events.

No... PC fans of the original will bitch it has been "consolized"

It could but hopes are strong they wont turn it into the above mentioned other first person shooters. 

But the PS3 is the lead console for this project and the pc verison has been outsourced to another studio. All of heard from this is that they have included the orginal Inventory screen. But i am very worried because i want to play it on my PC then on my PS3 and i have to import it(save 50%) and that takes anywhere from 4-12 days and i want it right away so i want it shipped early which could spell disaster for me if the PC verison ends up being the worst overall. 

But It could end up being the best with one whole development studio working soly optimizing for the PC could be a good thing.

I so hope optimism is justified, but after the Duke turned out to be an average and partially "consolized" FPS, I'm a little pessimistic. Anyway, chances are that it won't be as good as the first Deus Ex, but it will be a lot better than the second.

Edit: let's just hope they remember the 10 Commandments of PC Gaming  http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=130442&page=1#

Yes it will! I only played the 2nd one in the series and loved it. So I guess my expectations aren't very high. I can't wait for it.



it looks great
