Our review
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is a worthy successor to Human Revolution, continuing Adam Jensen's story in a beautifully realized, cyberpunk future. The core gameplay loop of stealth, hacking, and combat remains incredibly satisfying, offering players a wealth of choices in how they approach each objective. The level design is intricate and encourages exploration, rewarding players who take the time to discover alternate paths and hidden secrets. Visually, the game is a mixed bag; while environments are often stunning, character models can sometimes look dated, and the game suffered from some technical issues at launch. The narrative, while engaging, ends rather abruptly, leaving a sense of unsatisfying incompleteness. Despite this, the game excels in its world-building and thought-provoking themes of transhumanism and prejudice. The augmentation system is robust, allowing for deep customization of Jensen's abilities, and truly impactful choices throughout. While not a perfect experience,…
