Square Enix ruining HR and killing the franchise for a Marvel game was insulting. Square Enix ruining HR and killing the franchise for a shit Marvel game was inexcusable.

As much as I adore the original Deus Ex, I have to disagree with this. I can fire it up right now and play for hours and have a great time, but when I tried to get my wife into it she played for about ten minutes and just wasn't really getting it for some reason. Got her on HR and she just got it more.

The game is legendary, but I feel like it's become one of those, 'masterpiece of its time' type things, and a comprehensive remaster/remake could bring in a whole new demographic of people who simply need more updated, "modern", controller friendly gameplay to truly get invested in the game.

The remaster they showed was not the way, but a remaster is not necessarily a bad thing I think, if for nothing else than an updated control scheme.

It's about as good as its going to get "officially" to breath new life into the franchise...(the remaster)

That remains to be seen.

This is what they've published since then (this decade):

• Elex 2
• Spongebob: The Cosmic Shake
• Spongebob: Titans of the Tide
• Spellforce 3 & CoE
• Jagged Alliance 3
• Wreckfest
• Wreckreation
• Trine 5
• Alone in the Dark (2024)
• ReAnimal

This is on the horizon:

• Eternal Life of Goldman
• Tides of Tomorrow
• Titan Quest 2
• Wreckfest 2
• Europa 1410
• Way of the Hunter 2
• Darksiders 4
• Fatekeeper

The OG and HR were legendary, MD was ok but was lacking something, especially with the story being incomplete, the less said about The Fall and IW the better.

Fair enough. None of those are for me but they're definitely putting out consistent work now, so I guess there is hope.

It has been a long buildup over time but I think Darksiders 4 is them finally dipping their toes back into the AAA pool.

Fatekeeper looks great but I think it might be AA, which oddly works in it's favor since that's THQ's specialty.

It's a good game but man ain't no deus ex

Ppl have rose-tinted glasses b/c of nostalgia. If a Deus Ex game was made today it would try to be like Cyberpunk. Anything else with a smaller scale and a lower budget will bring unflattering comparisons. Deus Ex was good for its time b/c it was one of a kind game, but having the same gameplay today will not go over well when standards have been raised.

I recently played it about a year or so ago, and I loved every second of it. Deus ex is just a better series to me, is what it is.

I'm totally down for a new one. The last two were great.

Edit: to complete my thought, I guess I like all the games in the series, even that purple one on the Xbox, lol. I think it was called Shadow something.
