Embracer just bought a bunch of shit up and went and killed studios and ip's for the fuck of it.

Kind of, there's a couple of steps missing from your sentence.
1. Embracer bought a bunch of shit up
2. They spent way too much money on B-level I.P. and mismanaged
3. They incidentally killed multiple I.P.s due to this
4. They now know what they're doing and are using the "THQ Nordic" Brand yet again for good will

HR is a masterpiece game for me. That game, piss filter and all, brought such a cool atmosphere. I still haven't seen a game bring that kind of atmosphere. There was just something about it.
Mankind Divided kinda dropped that a bit, but was still good in its own regard. If we had gotten the second part of that game to tie everything together, I think it would be just as highly regarded as HR.

I really, really need to play HR and MD at some point. I played DX 1 + 2 back in the day and have owned both of the newer games since they came out. Prey was also a god-tier game to me but I've somehow never started those last two games.
I still remember the hubbub of DX 2 being 'consolized' by some angry PC gamers. I thought the game was fine but I still kinda miss seeing that word online. I think we should bring it back.

The issue is, modern western devs have no ability to handle this subject matter, a final Deus Ex game should have come out no later than 2019.
In a post COVID world and so many other things, how could anyone tackle conspiracy theory in a way that would stay true to the old games? I cringe to think how badly it could be screwed up.

Me too. It's a shame they could never make a game as good as the original.
