Is this the original Deus Ex? I really enjoyed Human Revolution but haven’t played any others in the series. Is the story worth putting up with the slightly dated QoL shortcomings?

The OG game is the best game ever made.
If you install Deus Ex Randomizer, it will apply all the fixes to the vanilla DeusEx.exe too (fixes to the renderer, frame rate limit, configs, etc), and then when you've beaten the game and you're ready for more then you can open DXRando.exe lol. Inside DXRando.exe we do also have a game mode called "Zero Rando" which keeps things unrandomized and mostly vanilla but includes our QoL improvements and balance tweaks.
Make sure you play the training, and if the poor weapon handling annoys you then upgrade that weapon skill
Wow awesome! Thanks for this.
May be the catalyst I needed to hop on it!
I wanna be like you guys when I grow up
You’re legit selling me on this. Onto the backlog it goes!
Mankind Divided is the best one imo
When I saw they were selling in-game single-use items for real money I immediately decided I had no interest in it. Did it actually have a good story?
Yes. It was good but really no need to ever spend money on microtransactions.
Interested in hearing this opinion also, as this series sits in my backlog and I'd like to start from the beginning.
But that train of thought is what is preventing me from getting farther than an hour or two in the witcher
Lol I absolutely loved the first Witcher game when I played it last year. Everything about it is janky except the storytelling, atmosphere, and presentation (Zoltan and Geralt’s faces aside lol)
I had Deus Ex on my backlog for a while. The way things were working out in 2019, I estimated that I'd get around to it by early spring of 2020. I was a little off, didn't get to it until May, but damn was it the right game for the right time.
Do you have a single fact to back that up?
Similar to Metal Gear Solid 2 level of future prediction
