I would have liked to enjoy this game but it's not possible.

Even if I have played several dozen hours and have unlocked many achievements, I am very annoyed by the game's flaws which make it unbearable.

The game is unnecessarily demanding in terms of skill.

The problem is that the game is not precise at all.

There is some randomness and we often have to rely on luck, even if we start over many times and have learned to play.

I had a lot of nervous breakdowns because I found the game very unfair and unrewarding despite the effort.

Between the arrangement of certain traps, those damn robots and more generally the vicious gameplay, there are good reasons to scream about while you play.

I completed games like Ninja Gaiden Black, Dark Souls or Super Meat Boy, and it seemed simpler to me because the gameplay was well put together and, most importantly, rewarding after several attempts.

And should I also talk about bugs with achievements? I'm missing 3 prisoners when I should have them, great...

This game has become one of my favorites, and for an indie game, I think it's comparable to licensed games.

The universe is enchanting and poetic, the gameplay fluid and diversified, the musical compositions are subtle and emotional, it's a game that I find very addictive and I never get bored of returning to it.

I feel several emotions while playing this game, both pleasure and a form of sadness, perhaps because it draws its inspiration from everything that affects me personally.

I have only one regret: I did not succed to get the physical collector's version of the game. It's a must-have.

Thank you Lince Works for your great work, you have won a fan!

Why do I like this game ? For its heroic fantasy universe, it reminds me big literary references like The Lord of the Rings, and in my opinion, it's a success!
I like too varied contents like PVP, siege battles, narrative quests or simply the pleasure of discovering the world.
I think the flaws like old graphics or bugs are not a real problem because it's not the heart of the game, so it's possible to appreciate the rest.
I would say I feel a little bit addictive to this game because there is so much to do!
The only real " flaw " ? Micro-transactions, without it the pace is slow, but nevermind, I should say it's ok for a free game. I think its a good way to thank the developers.

Anyway, if you want a good MMORTS without spending money or not too much, I strongly recommand you to play this game!

One of a best video game series from my childhood and in general too. It's simply a masterpiece.

Unfortunately, I can't recommand this game.

I'm a very big fan of the Deus Ex franchise. I've knew the first Deus Ex on computer when I was ten years and still now (twenty five years), I play this game.

Why Mankind Divided is a disappointment ? Because it's just a part of a game. At the end, it's just the beginning of the story. We have a lot of questions in mind but no answer.

Yet, there is not a huge difference in the gameplay compare to Human Revolution. IA is still poor and icing on the cake, we only vist ONE city. In the others Deus Ex, we visit at least three cities so it was much more diverse en termes of places. Indeed, the old games purpose a less wide physical surface, but at least, developers tried to make an effort to give diversity to their games. So I think one city it's a little bit lazy.

And what can I say about optimization ? In my case, I don't have big problems, but still nowadays, how to explain that people who have monsters like GTX 1080 cannot have constant 60 fps ? It's shameful, especially when we pay around 50$.

So to conclude, it could have been a success, but business is business, and its seems Eidos had no choice to impoverish this game.

This game is a great success. Styx is a game which totally respects the stealth genre. The ambiance and the level architecture bring to a subtle and discrete gameplay. Musics set the tone of the medieval universe. Graphics are basic but artistic direction is interesting so it's not an important default. The gameplay is large because there are many opportunities of action, moving and choice in order to achieve our goal.

If you know Thief serie or you simply appreciate stealth genre, so just play this game, I think you will not be disappointed.

Very good game.

Probably a deception compare to the first because it's more accessible because of Xbox version but when I see current games, I think it's better to play this one.

I think also Invisible War is better than Human Revolution because it keeps the true spirit of the serie (Warren Spector was still behind this game).

My advice: Try before judging.
