Deus Ex 3

    Human Revolution’s hateful reliance on pre-rendered cutscenes definitely does. These clips are only ever very short, and only occur during the main story missions about once an hour, but they’re still irritating every single time.

    Put another way, during the game’s most dramatic moments, the game doesn’t just take control away from you, it abandons the rendering engine for a rolling video that looks completely different. The last game to have this sickness quite as bad was Arkham Asylum.

    You have to kill him. Or rather, you have to injure him enough so that the game can take over and show you Jensen being forced to kill in a pre-rendered cutscene. Which struck me as a pretty miserable ending to everything up to that point.So there you have it! Deus Ex: Human Revolution arrives this August. Be more excited about it than you’ve been for any other game ever made, but also preemptively disappointed. You know it makes sense.

    Bleh. I REALLY hate control being taken away from me. And it's pretty absurd that it's found it's way into the one game that gave you complete control. Oh well. I expect that I'll still enjoy it.

    Seems like a small price to pay if everything else is as stellar as he makes it sound. Definitely a close second to L.A. Noire for my most anticipated game of the year, sounds like they're nailing it this time around (though I guess the same could've been said about DX2 from previews).

    Hey, that was a cool trailer.

    Yeah, every trailer they are releasing is epic, but most of the epicness is the music, McCann is in da SHAPE !

    i just hope the game is going to be at least half that good as the first DEUS EX

    I'm actually really liking a lot of what I'm hearing due to the leak. By the sounds of it just about every Deus Ex-y detail or reference or callback you could want is in the game, for example, getting in trouble for going in the wrong bathroom. I watched a guy play last night on a stream and he died to the same turret like four times in a row because it had a flashbang trap in front of it (as far as I could tell anyway, it wasn't visible but he kept getting flashbanged when he went near it. Maybe that's a special turret feature, not a separate trap). It was hilarious. Eventually after everyone in the comments kept yelling at him, he discovered a vent nearby to bypass the thing. Also the levels don't look that unbelievably futuristic that people were worried about. I only watched that first level after Jensen gets his augs before turning off the stream to avoid spoilers, but that level looked perfectly realistic and normal, except for the desks with fake arms and shit on them, and the outfits the swat guys wore. They've done a much better job making the game look realistically futuristic than a lot of people (with aspergers and poor abilities for suppressing disbelief) were expecting.

    Eidos Montreal has taken a very liberal stance on the leak, even allowing people to talk about it on their forums (although restricting screenshots and videos), and encouraging links to non-game press reviews and stuff like that. There's been a lot of info posted, and it's pretty much 100% positive. I really want to know how the leak's effected preorders now, because just about every Deus Ex fan I know (except one Deus ex modding forum I'm on full of grognards who hate DXHR for anachronisms like "Jensen wears sleeves!" or "UNACTO shouldn't have been formed back then!") is head over heels about the game and a lot of them have preordered since the leak due to doubts being eased by it.
