When playing stealth, though, between those conversations, you end up spending a lot of time in the back alleys of the game, behind the window dressing. A few times, I loaded up a save and went back through a conversation with different choices to see what would happen, even though I liked the result I'd ended up with, and generally I found something just as interesting down the other path. If you pick up the augmentation meant to influence conversations, you'll get clues as to which conversation options will work better on certain characters and you'll also get opportunities to interrupt and prompt your conversation partner. The dialogue system in Mankind Divided seems to have mixed in some DNA from the Mass Effect series, but because there aren't as many conversations as in those epic-length games, it's a bit more nuanced. All my decisions regarding augmentation choice and equipment zeroed in on anything that would let me get into more places and talk my way through more situations.īy not killing people and even avoiding knocking them out when possible, I was able to talk to more characters and get results from more of my conversations, which is arguably one of the best parts of this series.

I played the game the way I usually play Deus Ex games (not to mention Splinter Cell and Metal Gear) – full stealth with a side of talking. With a new world and a new, grittier take on cyberpunk, can Mankind Divided live up to its predecessor?

It sets a grim and believable tone for the sequel, giving us an all-too plausible reason for why people of the world have gone from aug-wild to trying to strip people of the very arms and legs that get them through daily life. Separate lines for "augs" and "naturals." Politicians using the issue to gain notoriety or to further their own agendas. Armed state police asking for identification. Here we see images reminiscent of America and Europe's pasts with officially sanctioned discrimination. Jensen now lives in Prague in the Czech Republic, working for Interpol. Many augmentation corporations have failed, including the one Jensen worked for. Set two years after the incident, the unaugmented live in fear of the augmented. With billions of augmented people on the planet, many died in the incident, and it changed the way the world looks at augmented citizens. Anyone with a cybernetic augmentation flew into a blind rage, attacking those around them. Jensen ultimately stopped the attack, but it began before he could do anything. In Human Revolution, protagonist Adam Jensen did everything in his power to stop a plot to turn the cybernetic augmentations so many people have in Deus Ex's world, set in the late 2020s, against them. While your save from one won't affect the other, the events of Human Revolution are the catalyst for the conditions present in Mankind Divided. Mechanics have evolved, but are still basically the same. The world has a similar feel that links it to the previous game, including the yellow triangles that pervaded Human Revolution. It's easier and perhaps more necessary to compare Mankind Divided to its predecessor than it was to look at Human Revolution in relation to the original Deus Ex and its follow-up, Deus Ex: Invisible War. The wait for Mankind Divided was almost as long at five years.

I was pretty confident I would I loved Human Revolution when that hit in 2011, and I was happy to see the game getting a direct sequel after the series being dead silent for eight years. It took me a while to warm up to Mankind Divided, but I did finally get there. I'm awash in abilities, game mechanics, tutorials, characters, and new sights and sounds, and it's overwhelming. I always have a tough time at the beginning of games like Deus Ex: Mankind Divided telling if I like the game or not.
