I was really looking forward to playing this game. I went in with fairly low expectations graphics wise and AI wise. However...when I got into it there was more than that which turned me off.
AI - I...I was shocked as to how bad the enemy AI is in this game. Even compared to other games around the same time. I could be standing 15 feet away and they would not see me. Maybe because it was supposed to be "night" outside. But, I think anyone would be able to see a person 15 feet away.
Gun-play - I found the animations for firing the weapons in this game are medicore at best. It didn't look right when you fired the weapons. There's a certain something which some games have that make the weapon animations look good. The recoil, the muzzle flash, the sound, all factor into this. Deus Ex seemed to lack all of the listed characteristics...
Dialouge - This was the main thing which turned me off. The dialouge is very dull. I found the story to be somewhat dull as well. I think the dialouge is supposed to be monotone because of the cyber-punk future theme. But they could have done a bit better. I found the lines don't have expression to them.
Overall I was fairly dissapointed with the game. However, I was impressed that the commander knew about me exploring the women's bathroom though. :P
