I got to the inner city New York area and I must say that the environment and lore is not really engaging or enticing me to move forward with the game. Everything looks more or less the same.
I'm literally only playing it to see what I would personally enjoy about this critically acclaimed game. So far I do like the guns and the fact that headshots are more effective.
Basically what I'm asking is: Does it get any better?
Christopher Cruz
After the airfield it becomes more spooky conspiracies and fun time.
Adrian Baker
No, it never gets better. Everyone on Holla Forums and anyone in the past 16 years who has ever said Deus Ex is good or fun has actually been wrong this entire time. You figures it out, OP, good job.
Carter Johnson
deus ex sux :DDDD
Leo Anderson
The bad guys have a fucking statue of a giant hand holding the earth. It's cheesy as shit.
Human Revolution is much better.
Aiden Gray
I didn't say it was bad, the gameplay is actually very good. But the story, environment design, and worldbuilding is just incredibly lacklustre.

Why would want to go out with him or any user?
Evan Robinson
The only cunt here is you, m8.

Just don't be one of those fags who tries to finish it as soon as you can just so you can say that you've played Deus Ex. The game is at it's best when take time to stop and smell the roses. Dick around and experiment as much as you can.
For a lot of that, you're going to have seek it out yourself. Read newspaper articles, emails, books, etc. whenever you can. The cutscenes only tell you about half the story.

Once you pass the Airfield, then shit gets great. Your weapon will start getting enough mods to make it not shit to use, you'll finally have enough skill points to start not struggling with everything you do, and the game all in all starts becoming motherfucking Deus Ex.
If you picked up an assault rifle, keep it. Even if you dont plan on using that quantum hitmarker generator gun, the 20mm grenades it fires are good for dealing with small and medium robits
Always keep something on hand for dealing with bots. If you need to get past one with no explodies or EMP, you're in for a rotten time
Health Regen aug is for faggots and casuals
Don't fall for the "Swimming is a useless skill" meme. A later area makes it basically mandatory. Anyone who didn't have Swmmies at Advanced for this part was no doubt cheesing this portion with the regen mod like the zyme-snorting, Forty-drinking nigger he is
Noah Ortiz
dont worry, i already do that
Evan Baker
confirmed bait
Lucas Ward
But you specifically complained about the gameplay in your post here:
To me you sound like a casual who doesn't know how to Prod With The Prod
Andrew Sanchez
Ok, I'll keep playing until I hit that part then.
I also really, really dislike it when my fellow UNATCO troopers die so I have to keep save scumming to save them. If they are killed, does anything bad happen?
Bentley Torres
environments and worldbuilding isn't gameplay kiddo
Bentley Smith
holy shit he sure is one fat fuck
Dylan Mitchell
No, it doesn't matter if they live or die. There might be some future dialogue that gets affected (knowing Deus Ex it's more than likely), but ultimately it's not important. There's no way you'll experience everything in one playthrough, anyway.
Connor Fisher
Since this is the Deus Ex thread, Sawn-off or Assault Shotgun?
I'm playing GMDX btw.
Sebastian Myers
Sawed off if you wanna look like you're a colombine, Assault if you want to assault some ass if you catch my drift.
Though you should be using the prod.
Parker Howard
Never have i seen such a punchable face.
Mason Anderson
A couple widows and some orphans, but not much else. What did you expect?
HAR HAR HAR
Gavin Jackson
It's called a kike.
You know, the main reason why the world is so shit IRL and in DX.
Mason Bennett
prod
Josiah Turner
I want to use the Sawn-Off because pump action guns make my cock hard, but I want to use the assault Shotgun too because autoshotguns also make my cock hard. I dont want to invest mods into a gun I'll just end up replacing, so wat do boss?
And yes, I prod with the prod. Only on NSF and UNATCO though. MJ12 troopers are ZOG-worshipping cryptokikes and deserve a wad of buckshot applied directly to the back of their heads.
Ethan Butler
well… your reasons are sound, at least
given a choice between the two I'd go with the autoshotty
Gabriel Scott
Who will help the Widow's Son?
The leader of MJ12 is whitey who likes to quote christian philosophers.
**what about the ching mercs

Sawn-off are always a shitty choice, dunno why they are even presented. At the same range and even further, Assault Shotguns clean house without so many reloading problems. Longer than that needs Assault Rifle instead.
If you ever have to go close enough to someone a Sawn-Off actually pays off, you're already doing something wrong anyway.
Unless we were talking stalker, where the choice is very simple: Sawn-Off to fight monsters, Assault to fight humans. So, uh… Keep both and use Sawn-off against Greys, jews and the lab monstrosities and Assault to kill UNATCO.
Julian Bailey
That's my boy.
Go with the Sawn-Off if you haven't already. Or you know, you can be an idort and do both, just switch after each kill.
Get double the boner.
I too prod with the prod, unless said NSF fuckers too do much damage, usually a couple get meme'd in the process, but again, I try not to meme anyone, but sometimes the prod isn't enough to prod with.
