Enemy AI is good, for the most part, but can be fairly predictable and is prone to occasional glitching.Īll the cover and shooting works well, but you rarely have to fire off a round if you choose not to. Cover makes itself readily available due to the objects that would normally appear in a room. Rather, all the environments in Human Revolution feel authentic and organic. Cover can be taken pretty much anywhere and the game doesn't feel like some other cover-based shooters do, where you walk into a room and know there's going to be a firefight due to strategically placed cover. These mechanics are tight and work very well. Walking around and some gunfighting is done in first-person, while dropping into cover shifts the game into third-person perspective. Primarily, Deus Ex: Human Revolution plays like a first-person shooter with third-person shooter elements. Now he's bigger, badder, and ready to find the people who tried to kill him. What does Sarif do? They take a page from Robocop and rebuild Adam with top-of-the-line augmentations for every part of his annihilated body. Some highly augmented mercenaries come in and trash Sarif Industries, apparently kill Megan, and put a bullet between Adam's eyes after throwing him through a wall. It didn't hurt Adam's chances that his ex-girlfriend, Megan, is the head researcher at Sarif Industries. You play as Adam Jensen, an ex-cop who was fired from the force under ambiguous circumstances, then hired on as the chief of security for Sarif Industries, one of the leading biotech companies behind the recent human augmentation market. The question is: did the game live up to those gorgeous trailers?ĭeus Ex: Human Revolution is set in 2027, making it a prequel to the original Deus Ex by about 25 years. It's been eight years since the last Deus Ex game and more than ten since one people actually liked, so all those new trailers hit the gaming world like a typhoon of awesome. Needless to say, that made me a fan of such cyberpunk games as Shadowrun, System Shock, and, of course, Deus Ex. Dick ( Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?), and of course William Gibson ( Neuromancer) have captured my imagination time and time again with their tales of cybernetics, big corporations, and bleak future Earths. Authors such as Neil Stephenson ( Snow Crash), Phillip K. By VGChartz Staff, posted on 23 August 2011 / 22,391 ViewsĬyberpunk is one of my favorite sub-genres of science fiction.
