More Deus Ex is always good, but after Oblivion this looks pretty lazy.

It's another cash-grab in the remaster universe, but knowing me, I'll probably buy it :D

Your avatar says enough :laugh:
At least it doesn't cost mega bucks. 30 is fair if it plays nicely

This is uncanny. I was today looking at a video on how Embracer screwed Deus Ex and how we might not even get a remaster of the original, much less a conclusion to Mankind Divided. Cautiously optimistic on this one, but never preorder. Wait to see how it actually runs.

This is one of those titles that is gonna get flak no matter… remastered or full remake… it won’t be enough to the fans, whether it’s the remastered level, full on remake but it’s not true to the original etc…

I really hope there is zero content cut/changed/or adjusted for the 'modern audience'. Fingers crossed.

Same here.

I have just started to replay the game (for the Nth time) and I am still on Liberty Island.
Now I guess it's better to wait till February.

Youtube's highest rated comment on it perfectly embodies my thoughts on this remaster:

Niceumemu

They somehow made JC look worse

The number one thing that needed improved was the AI and I don't see any mention of that. lol.
it doesn't look that much better than the revision mod judging from the youtube trailer. The best way to remake the game is like what they did the RTX portal and completely overhaul the visuals with path tracing + new textures.

Correct, RTX Remix could have done justice. Still leaves problems with the AI, but perhaps that could be solved separately.

For what? So you need 5090 to play at 60fps?: www.techpowerup.com/review/portal-with-rtx/3.html

Visual upgrade means nothing if the gameplay, AI and physics are the exact same.
Oblivion Remaster did it right. Despite the performance problems due to the original engine and UE5 wrapper they did not go full mad with RT or PT and the gameplay changes were mostly respectful to the original vision.

Nope, the far too high detail assests stand out like a sore thumb in the low polygon world.

Should have let Nightdive Studios do this, they're well versed with this era and know what works and what doesn't.

FierceRed

No! God! No God please no! No! No! Nooooooooooo

In all seriousness though, I'd hoped that they wouldn't touch this. I'd PRAYED they would leave this one alone. Especially after Human Revolution and the franchise's fate. Yet here we are.

If they fuck up the iconic voice acting, they'll never be forgiven.

It’s Aspyr. After they managed to bloat NWN2 to 10 times the original game without much of visual improvement and while somehow introducing new bugs I don’t have much faith in them. I don’t know why one would play this instead of the original Deus Ex with GMDX that also includes New Vision and HDTP.

I dont mind the remaster as long as people still have access to play the original. No one is gonna take it away.
If the remaster can bring new people to the game then that's great.

Let's be real. It doesn't matter how they do it. Someone, somewhere will still complain and whine for some reason.

hopefully better than the Neverwinter Nights 2 remaster

Human Revolution was actually kind of alright. This looks like a bit weird, i feel like it's either what we expect it to be, with all its flaws and style or it's just something different.

Original's physics like enemies falling on their face or ass after takedown made me cringe. If it gets a physics realism overhaul as well, I'll def buy it!

have the 2nd game on disc somewhere and these lazy "remasters" which require internet connection and can be remotely taken away dont interest me.

I hope he's kidding. Human Revolution was awesome. The soundtrack alone is worth listening. Directors Cut added the pacifist boss fight options and tho the NPC animations in conversations are fairly limited and lip-sync is not the best it was the best anyone could have hoped for a revival after such a long time.

Mankind Divided was way more divisive. Mostly because of publisher meddling with DLC, preorder etc and the story was weaker than Human Revolution even tho the graphics were better. Unfortunately due to decisions made it's essentially half a game without a satisfying conclusion.

In a way this Remaster does look better, but I'm annoyed it doesn't look that much better. Like, if you make a remaster 25 years later, I'd expect the visual fidelity shift like Black Mesa did compared to Half-Life 1. When you walk in, everything is familiar, but everything is just upscaled and improved to eleven. Same could be said for Oblivion Remastered. Everything is familiar, but they elevated EVERYTHING and with current era ray tracing it really feels REMASTERED and made for today. But when remaster of a 25 years old game looks like a game that was released in 2010, something feels off. Why would you remaster visuals to a level of a 15 years old game for today? That's what I don't understand about some remasters. Imagine if Deus Ex was remastered to Unreal Engine 5 with every single asset of the game being remastered to have better textures and models and backed up with real time ray traced lighting and reflections. Especially because of what the game is. Imagine you could see reflections of NPC's and enemies in windows and surfaces while sneaking around. That would be so cool. And a lot of assets look all blocky and same looking as the ones in original which makes this weird uncanny valley feel which I don't like if game is being remastered.

Maybe it will feel different when I actually try it in person and lighting and shadows seems significantly better, but still.

The issue with this remaster is that anyone who cared has already made the game look substantially better with the suite of visual overhaul mods that have been out there for ages.

The goal of these types of remasters are to reintroduce a franchise to the gaming world without the risk of sinking a ton of money into a new game's development.

Issue with this here remaster is it looks so low effort it's more insulting than inspiring.

Aspyr does not have a good track record on this subject.

Remember: no preorders. Let others play through and find if any content is missing before you fund this effort to resell software. I still remember being disappointed in the Destroy All Humans remakes.

It's a remaster, not a remake. They're not going to touch the gameplay system, just the visual presentation and compatibility issues.

This legit works worse than the original. Who asked for this trash? You can easily mod the original and have it look better than this utter filth for free and without requiring 20GBs for it.
