    The behind the scenes politics are actually so frustrating. Edios-Montreal (huge fans of the Deus Ex franchise) originally intended to work on a sequel or at least finish the story they had been forced to cut short. But in 2018, SE started a partnership with Marvel and forced E-M to collaborate on The Avengers project - a game which was pure ass on release. So SE realise they have messed up, forcing a company good at immersive sims to make live service bs, BUT they still have to make use of their Marvel partnership. So they get E-M to make the Guardians of the Galaxy title, still not what they wanted to do but a genuinely decent game all things considered. Things looked up in 2022 when Embracer took control of the company and commissioned a new Deus Ex title (finally, yay!). Then the title was cancelled and the studio was decimated with 97 lay-offs. Embracer will likely just sit on the rights and with a fresh cancellation there won't be a new game any time soon. Even more disappointing, one of the most underrated and genuinely talented video game companies in the past few years has been completely trampled by corporate greed. No one asked for this lore dump but as a big fan this has been one punch after another to follow.

    This game has unparalleled verticality. Such an intricate experience where the hub design is just crammed full of nooks and crannies, loot, and diagetic and immersive storytelling. The amount of freeform pathing and solution-engineering that exists is insane. Tbh one of the most underrated games possibly ever. Let down by a truncated and mediocre last third, the evolution of Prague as the plot progresses is unbelievable and overall is an incredible experience. The Jensen duology is a package everybody should play, particularly the side quests which are probably the strongest feature of the titles and some of the best in gaming, period.

    I played MD soon after completing Cyberpunk 2077 and I was shocked at how much better of a cyberpunk experience it was. Everything from the much more satisfying, impactful augments, both gameplay and story-wise, to a much darker, more realistic setting and it obviously being a superior immersive sim game - perhaps the pinnacle of the genre, coming from its original creators - which Cyberpunk made a valiant effort to imitate, but didn't quite get there (just like it failed to be a GTA clone at the same time).

    CP2077 legit should've copied the Deus Ex hub world formula. With their bigger budget and longer dev time, I think they could've done at least 3 Prague-sized hubs (and maybe a fourth one for the story DLC). I recall there was another cyberpunk game back in 2013 called Remember Me which had the opposite problem of CP2077 - it was too linear. That one also would've been interesting to see utilising Deus Ex hub worlds (poor district, rich district, extra smaller locations for story missions).

Small, ultra-detailed hubs will always beat bloated open worlds. And it would've had MORE "charm and atmosphere" if they were allowed to crank up that level of detail on a smaller scale. Open world in CP2077 really doesn't add much. Just being able to drive from point A to point B in a car. But none of the locations were able to achieve their full potential. Level design is oh so very simplistic compared to Mankind Divided.

The sense of rush, scale and verticality you get while driving and walking around the city is something that can't be replicated in a hub world. You feel like you're apart of something much bigger than you are. Prague is pretty but I never really felt like I was in an actual city while playing in it, but just a comically small part of some town in Czechoslovakia. It never hooked me in quite like Night City did.

    Square-Enix tacked on microtransactions so the internet hate mob decided to pile on even though the game itself is everything they're always whining about what they want from video games. Terrible messaging with the AUG LIVES MATTER thing. Came out long after any momentum from Human Revolution had already run out. The story introduced some major threads early in the game like Janus and Adam's amnesia which were saved for the sequel we're now never going to get, so people were not satisfied with the story. Some people say it's "half done," but it's really not. There's some obvious cut content like the bomber subplot, but the main story has a complete arc.

    It's a great game, the only maddening thing is that it was meant to be the first of a trilogy. So it leaves you feeling blueballed, only getting to play the 1st act before things really start getting spicy. Apparently Eidos Montreal is working on a new Deus Ex game that's in "very early development" as of 2022. I highly doubt it'll be a continuation of Jensen's story though. In terms of story/themes I don't think either HR or MD come close to the greatness of the 1st game, but what they do have is fantastic and intricate level design. Prague was a great hub world and it was cool we got to experience it in different seasons as well as in a state of total police lockdown. I'd love to see more immersive sim style games backed by big budgets, but alas I don't think that'll ever happen. It's pretty dry out there, so I hope Eidos succeeds.

I've given up on AAA gaming. Their obsession with graphics is destroying them. Even if we get a new Deus ex it won't be one with love, care, and passion anymore. It'll be ubisoft trash. Open world, pointless check list style map, microtransaction, buggy mess. Heck even mankind divided was already pushing some predatory dlc. AAA devs are not to be trusted anymore.

    I remember playing human revolution when i was 14 or something and i could never get into it because i was just an fps and skyrim fanboy. When i built my pc 2 years ago, both games were on sale for a few dollars each, and man they were some of the best experiences i ever had. From the gameplay, to the aesthetics, the characters, the atmosphere, the music. I absolutely adore these games and i'm so mad that there will probably never be a sequel

    Sales for Mankind Divided were not great so I don't think EIDOS was interested in developing the series further. I think the Embracer Group bought the IP but they were having financial difficulties recently it seems so I don't think there will be another game forthcoming anytime soon

    Mankind Divided was how I ended up liking Deus Ex. I originally played human revolution on ps3 and didn’t like it. But then I played MD on ps4 and loved it so much I completed it twice in a row, second time with no detection or kills. I then went back to HR on pc which was way better than ps3 and ofc MD on pc too. Something about the vibe on MD is chill. It’s just a shame around the time I got into the Jenson Deus, everyone else went off it and any sequel was cancelled.

    Deus Ex Mankind Divided is not a perfect game but it definitely is my favorite game of the last generation, it is so underrated. Its atmosphere is so captivating, its secondary missions so well written and the hub of Prague is my favorite map ever across all videogames. Such a complex and detailed handcrafted open-ended map with a great level design, the complete opposite of the repetitive and empty huge open-worlds that most of AAA studios are doing these days.

But to me Deus Ex Mankind Divided because I love its atmosphere, the hub of Prague and the side quests. You also love games because of the emotional connection you have with some of them, and the immersion you have when playing them. Anyway, Deus Ex Mankind Divided is still a gem and an underrated game that deserves more praise, it is on the top league for me.

Though the side quest is not related to main story line but its about the augs and humans living in there. also you can complete the entire game without killing anyone (expect some people) just by doing stealth if you have invested you praxis kits in those augmentations
