Is this game like Deus Ex?

[7empest]

Is this game like Deus Ex where it is semi-open world where you can explore and do things at your own pace? or is it just a corridor shooter like CoD?

[Tryyton]

you basically have an open-world hub where you can walk around freely and do sidequests and such. the missions (from what i've played) often start with a cutscene that basically brings you to the mission area.

the missions have corridors and some alternate routes too. but i only played as much as they had in the demo.

but i don't think it really feels like either of the deus ex games...

[NuclearSnail]

Neither. It's not really an open world, but unlike a corridor shooter, the maps are pretty big and you can find lots of side quests and fun things by exploring them. It's got a big RPG component so dialogue and choices affect the story development as well.

[Hermit]

More like deus ex, way better than any COD campaign.

[NickDestroyer2]

Yeah, it's similar to Deux Ex.

there is no Deus Ex in this one. it's a story shooter with little to no choice on how to approach, very linear. is it a bad game? no! is it Deus Ex? no.

actually there was choices in how you approach the missions in the demo you just missed it. based on your stats and the evidence you find and choices you make. it is a lot like deus ex

I don't mean is it like dues ex in terms of story but just more of how you navigate through the game.. It seems like it kind of is based on the comments here.. DE:HR basically have like a main hub city that you can explore and find side quests, with the main quest taking you to specific locations.

not sure if we are talking about the same Deus Ex games. I played Deus Ex: HR and MK both completely stealth/undetected/ghost and as a pacifist without killing a single npc. I could of course do the opposite and go in guns blazing depending on the cyberware equiped. Robocop is just that, it's Alex Murphy the Robot doing his thing just like in the movies and it's fine but there is not really much freedom in this game. some dialogue options based on collected items and points in a social tree are a nice touch but it doesn't change much at all or does it?

[Tryyton]

Not really. "Either" suggests two, "any" is the preferred word in this case. That's just what surprised me, I wondered if the first two games had been erased from the radar these days. Second deserves to be forgotten though.

hm, didn't know...
the 2nd one? invisible war? yeah... not bad, but not a good deus ex game.

I am a big fan of Deus Ex and there are some similarities, specially in the structure of the game and how it plays.

[V I D A L]

Yes. It's quite similar to Deus EX.
