Well they couldn't say like "in year 2500", they had to properly place the game's time line before the firsts. jamejame

Yup, but that's essentially my point about the first one and in a way skrat_01 point also. Keeping the place of the game properly in the timeline is important, but so is the consistency of the universe. To be frank I don't mind it much, that's why I said(in a way) to forget about it in the first place and to just let the developers do their thing. But if you're trully keeping with the timeline of the other games, this game didn't necessarily have to be a prequel, nor did they have to exaggerate the hell out of it.

In the end though, that's what they decided to go with. Let's see what they will do with the franchise... hell, I'm curious.

Yes, its already been stated that the events in this game will led to the forming of UNATCO which plays a crucial role in the first game which that then obviously ties into the first game. As the sub-title suggests Human Revolution was when mechanical mods were first occurring which leads to the large conflict between those that are pro-mod and those that are anti-mod which is a major theme in the first two games. As well as setting up the conflict between mechanical mods and nanotechnology mods as the latter's superiority. Which is then even surpassed with biological mods.

So already there is enough to tie into the other two to be considered a prequel.

never herd of deus ex ;3 I think I remember seeing the name somewhere.

A good rundown on the new features of DX3. Sorry PC fans, this game will not be like the first....it will be different.

The game sounds great, you will die fairly quickly so I don't mind regen health, , the convo system sounds interesting and social interactions also sound good.

I agree, those look great! The games still a while from being released, so they're only gonna get more tightened up

People should just forget about the whole prequel mentality to begin with. One of the reasons why I liked the first one over the sequel, was because it was more... um... down to earth. The futuristic universe was kept simple, this just seems like its blown wide open. That said, I'm highly interested, but I don't think the developers are losing much sleep when it comes to keeping the consistency of the Deus Ex universe.

I still don't see why science fiction stories in this day and age have to continue following the huge progression a decade from now mentality. I don't think we'll reach what is shown in the video 15 years from now, this whole view was cool 30 years ago but now? Not so much.

Above said, awesome video.

Sure I really like its style, and augmentations, however its hard to ignore the technological comparisons, chronologically speaking of the series.

Perhaps there will be reasons why, as it is supposed to be set in a 'renaissance' period of technology, perhaps preceding a dive into a darker age of technological progression in the first. Fits with the plauge of the original.

That looks nothing like Deus ex, it looks like a more action orientated MGS

But it is Deus Ex, and it's what the developers wanted. So..how can it not look like Deus Ex?

When I play Deus ex I never fire a bullet, I sneak past enemies, climb through air vents, and hack into the security network.

In this game it looks like gun fights is their main focus, that is not the Deus ex I know.

also the developers of Deus ex closed down in 2001.

First of all, I beg to differ I played Deus Ex pretty much like a shooter, so those screenshots aren't even close to judging the game, especially since it got time in the oven to bake until 2011. And second most of the information out so far states that you will be able to tackle the missions as you see fit, how this pans out remains to be seen, but Eidos being as inconsistent as they are might be able to carry the banner from Ion Storm. Gamingcucumber

Its set 25 years before but the city looks like its 100 years latter, Its like the devs haven't even played Deus ex.

There is no information that even hints it going to be anything like the original.

]Put this in perspective. It is supposed to be set during a 'future renaissance' period. Considering the situation in the first Deus Ex, the global collapse could be a product of the the prequel? Thinking along the lines of the decline into the Dark Ages from the height of the Roman Empire. Otherwise it having its own individuality isn't necessarily a bad thing as well, I'd rather that than a game attempting to emulate the first completely. However saying that I agree of health regen and 3rd person cover.... and instant kills (first I have heard of that though, The Dragon's Tooth Sword in the first was also all that).skrat_01

The games story is going to lead up to the creation of UNATCO, Daedalus and Icarus. so the story (so far) fits in the universe, but every thing else seems to different for my liking.

It still has a chance to redeem its self if they show some gameplay with all the elements that made Deus ex a great game.

If you think about it, a cover system isn't that gamebreaking for Deus Ex. You could probaby just use it for stealth purposes if you wanted to (considering most stealth games like Splinter Cell and MGS have it as well). Going third person for a few select in-game actions never hurt the Riddick game, in fact it made it kind of better because you were further reminded that you are really playing Riddick here (and that you are bad-ass).

I'm not sure about the regenerating health though, but at least it's good to hear that you won't be able to run and gun with it. On another note, the fact that there are supposed to be like 19 augs sounds awesome, each can be upgradable with new abilites, so at least that's one actual improvement over the original.
