This is a really hard game to review. It has a lot of positive things but on the other hand there are some short comings to the game which is because of Square Enix's greedy ass! The gameplay has everything you want from a Cyberpunk stealth action game specially since it's a sequel to Deus Ex Human Revolution. The gunplay has improved alongside more weapons and customizations. The hacking is much more advanced and kind of harder. Some new augments have been added in this sequel which are much appreciated and overall the gameplay is awesome I only wish the later sections of the game would've become harder and more challenging. The last game had problems with boss fights and although this game has only one boss fight but it's a good one, which you can approach it with many different tactics. This game has a main hub which is the city of Prague. IMO it's really a step up from the last game. Many people loved the gold theme of the last game but I personally adore the realistic style and atmosphere that this title has specially the city itself. The side quests are also some of the best I've seen in this genre and I really love the theme of "Normal people vs The Augmented ones". I recommend to take your time and do all the side quests and explore every inch of Prague as much as you can. there are tons of details and secrets that can be found. My only gripe with the game is that the main story ends just when it gets interesting! As I mentioned earlier this was because of Square Enix being the greedy ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that they are and decided to cut this game in half and pull an Avengers Infinity War and do a part 2 for the game. But sadly Eidos Montreal got ♥♥♥♥♥♥ over by Square and The Embracer group which led to the cancelling of Mankind Divided part 2 :(
Although I love this game much much more than Human Revolution but I can't put this in my Top 20 favorites of all time since it's not a complete product (maybe someday when the part 2 actually gets made). But I strongly suggest you to play and experience the game for yourself since I know after that you'll be hungry for more of Deus Ex and Adam Jensen.
BTW the Breach mode is not good and I only did it for the achievements. But the DLCs are amazing and would be a shame not to play them specially "A Criminal Past". In the end I love this game more than Human Revolution but because of the short comings I can't give it more than 8/10 :)

Deus Ex: Human Revolution being one of my favorite games of all time, this game comes in quite close to it. Despite the differences from the first game, it's incredibly fun, and keeps to the spirit of its predecessor. Some people complain about the story, the lack of location variety compared with the first game, lack of boss fights, etc. and when I first played this game, I shared some of these feelings.

However, after completing another play through, I think I just was not in the right place to enjoy the game fully back in 2016/2017. Now, I feel like I understood more about what it was trying to achieve (both story and game play wise), and enjoyed it much more as a result.

If you played Human Revolution, you mostly know what you're in for. While the previous game had multiple endings and allowed the player to choose, this game basically assumes the worst outcome, which is honestly probably the most interesting choice. This sets an excellent scene to continue Jensen's story.

Overall, I would highly recommend this game. Even with subsequent titles being put on endless hiatus or cancelled, this is still absolutely worth playing.

I really, really hope by some miracle that we do actually end up getting a sequel to this. I had an absolute blast with this one. Credit to the creators, obviously not the leech company that bought the rights to these games up.
