I was never really bugged by over-simplification. As long as it retains the feel of previous Deus Ex titles (which judging from most of the footage - it does), I'm happy.

Which previous title? The godly one or the bucket of shit? Because the last gameplay they showed really reminded me of the latter.

OT: GOod to hear about the highlighting. I don't know why it's even being put in place, but I guess with stupid people playing games now they need all the help they can get. Now if they can remove that retarded cover system and regenerating health (add it in as an augmentation like the first one, and if you remember it was too slow to be too useful in fights themselves). all will be back on track.

The way they described it was that they felt it made sense if Jenson had augmented vision and actually aided immersion. Obviously, lots disagreed, lol.

I'm not that bothered about the cover system (although hopefully you can still use shadows to some extent) but I think they should have regen health as an augmentation, even if they allow you to have access to it early. Maybe someone can mod it in later. I remember some of the original Deus Ex mods were fantastic.

Did they even mention they will release mod tools? I may have missed the news.

The cover also bothers me because it is useless. What's the point of cover if you have a crouch button and strafe buttons?
