Just finished the game completely non-lethal. Pretty disappointed with the lack of areas, bad side quests, the terrible boss fights and the last 2 hours of the game. The endings were pretty lackluster, too. I am going to give it another playthrough, but only because I loved the original Deus Ex so much. Really disappointed here. This transition is worse than ME1 to 2.

The bad:

- Outdated graphics.
- Several unresolved plot lines.
- Dermal armor is useless.
- No New Game+ feature kills replay value for me.

The annoying:

- A single energy cell? Are you serious?
- Storage locker anyone?
- Arcanum-style inventory limits firepower.

The good:

- Story, though predictable to some extent.
- Freedom to approach assignments and tailor your augments to match.
- Hacking mini-game can be pretty engaging at times.

I reserve the right to update this list should anything else come to mind. :wizard:

The power-cells can be upgraded, same with the inventory.

You're not really suggesting I missed that bit, did you? I upgraded both power cells and inventory but the issues remain. Cell recharge goes only up to one cell and inventory size can be maxed to three extra columns I think, not nearly enough to pack a punch and go stealth.

EDIT: Oh, and dermal armor is still useless with all its upgrades.

You recharge only if you haven't depleted the entire cell. If there is even a little bit of green left it will recharge. Its intentional and imo shouldn't change.

I found I can take alot more damage with only 1 point in dermal armour. I don't die right away anymore and have a second or two to retreat.

In order not to deplete the entire cell you need to decloak or consume nutrients like mad, not to mention you can't do things like cloak and knock out a couple of guards at the same time or you'll lose cells.

I liked the idea of energy, but it could definitely use some work. The problem is mainly all the abilities which consume entire cells. Because only the first cell actively regens, it limits the utility of purchasing mutliple energy cells.

Why do people keep saying the graphics look bad? The character models aren't great and the facial animations aren't much iver, but the enviroments are gorgeous!

Was I the only one who thought DX:HR looked exactly like The Matrix? Image IPB



Thats becuase they're both part of the Cyber punk genre, like Blade runner. I think the game is more simillar to Robocop and Blade runner.

Because some people have no idea what they expect from a game. DXHR looks pretty normal for a console game.  It's no Witcher 2, but then again, hardly any games this generation are.

I didn't say they were bad, I said they were outdated, old. I hope they release a major update to fix this, because I'm left with the uneasy, and all too often, explanation that the dated graphics are due to console limitations and they simply ported this version to PC.

Ow, I wasn't just refering to you. I've heard a few people say the graphics are bad, in some parts I agree, like the character models. But the art direction is brilliant! I love this cyberrenaissance thing they've got going on.

Character models are an integral part of any shooter. Especially one that revolves , in large parts , to political intrigue and conversation.

The city is great , but that's simply the décor. The style is great , but what good is it if you can't translate it to your game? I'm not a graphic junky; I'd prefer gameplay over graphics any day, but its definitely not the game's strong point (no matter what those game-revue lackeys say) . Add to this the funky hand/arm/face gestures and you got yourself something that's pretty sub par by most standards.

But you can still hate on the graphics and like the game. Hell , i hate on the graphics and the controls and i still like the game.

Mind blowing , i know.

No, it's because the proplr look like plastic, even when they aren't made of it.

If you drop something in your apartment it will stay for you to pick up later. In practice I'm guessing you can drop stuff anywhere you will be able to return to, but experiment at your own risk.

As a console owner and a PC owner, I can only say that it's disappointing when console limitations hold back the graphics on the PC. Given those limitations though, the game does look good.

But just to say something completely unrelated, I invested heavily in hacking now, and the game has become a lot more fun. I went about it the wrong way when I started the game, thinking in terms of other action RPGs and wanting to build a good combat character. You can't really do that because the augments to support it aren't there or are just really bad. It's so much better just to focus on exploration augs - jumping, lifting objects, hacking, punching through walls, cloaking.

I still think the combat system feels very limited, and Jensen's pretty much made out of paper (edit: very high-tech paper) so stealth always seems like a better option.

Yes, I've done this. In fact, most, if not all, weapons and other items do not disappear when you leave the city, you can find them again when you return later on in the game.

I wish they'd properly explain that in the game though. Same deal in FO3 and FO:NV. You *can* leave your stuff in many places without losing it, but you don't really know for sure.

Yeah in most other games, the reason when you drop stuff and it's not there, is because it either is eliminated from that version of the area when you leave, or because NPC's are programmed to wander around and pick up random **** (the thieves >.<).

DE3 doesn't seem to have dynamic NPC's like that, so it's safe to say you can drop a fully upgraded revolver in the middle of The Hive and nobody will try to snatch it.

As for graphics. Like I said before, some things in this game just look ugly. Some NPC's look horrible. Letitia anyone? And the cutscenes are compressed nonsense that should not be in a High Def game...like ever.

Also back to Letitia...anyone else offended by her? I'm black so in particular this seems like a giant step backwards to me.

Yes. It was so bad I stopped playing. I'm just not going to talk to her again. So far anybody with an accent has been a cartoonish stereotype.
