Deus Ex: The Fall

Don't buy this game on its own, but if you get the Deus Ex Collection, you might as well play it too. it's basically Human Revolution downgraded to run on an iPhone 5; running it on modern hardware leads to absurdly high framerates (I got around 1200 fps) and potential for missed inputs when clicking icons on-screen. It's a decent evening's fun to play through, but there are 2 cheevos that are a pain to get due to needing ludicrous amounts of money. (It's obvious it was originally a mobile game, with the premium market showing through here.) Stealth in it feels a lot like stealth in DX:HR, made easier by the fact bodies/corpses despawn 5 seconds after being neutralized/killed. Loud combat is much more unforgiving: your bullets evaporate after a few meters, most weapons lack ADS, and grenades have way too long of a fuse to be of an. As soon as I 100%ed the achievements for this game, I promptly uninstalled it.

cant say i like this one more than any other deus ex game but ive come to appreciate it after seeing old prototype builds. its a gold mine if youre into that sort of thing and i would recommend it on those grounds but as a game to play no not really. its not too long so you can knock it out in one long sitting but the combat is very one-note, hitboxes are dodgy and there is absolutely no point in using anything other than a maxed out pistol. there is no buffer between an enemy seeing you and when they fire their first shot so you cant really quickly peek out to shoot and not get caught. the game is also simply too short and content barren to unlock many augments or to even buy all shop items at least once (nor are any items or augs even required to access most of the game) this game is however a pretty okay technical recreation of deus ex human revolution in the unity engine and thats pretty cool to me :) and its fun* enough if you arent looking for a serious game

Disregarding the fact that this is a mobile port, this is a terrible game. Flat voice acting that sucks the life completely out of you making any interest in the story die on arrival. It has an obtrusive and obnoxious tutorial, made all the worse by how it makes you do an aug upgrade and then that upgrade is almost immediately gone again. This is a spin-off multiple games in, I'm pretty certain the player knows how the praxis system works by now. There's exposition dumps galore, hit detection is weird. They decided there'd be no jumping unless it's over specific barriers (seriously, we're still doing the no jumping thing?). Whether or not you can duck behind a wall seems very arbitrarily determined. Enemies can just randomly teleport behind you. I experienced at one point the magical vanishing floor of death. Once again the energy for your abilities is a yoke around the player's neck. And it pulls the cardinal sin of being open-ended when it's obvious they didn't even know whether they'd have another in the series. 5 hours of my life wasted on this piece of garbage.

Pretty good Deus ex, a little short and clunky but it's pretty fun, not sure about the negative reviews, it's not a complete concord Bro tips : 1-do not save when you are in a tunnel or you will be softlocked 2-don't buy anything from the marketplace if you plan to 100% this thing

I went into this one knowing it was a mobile port and still came out feeling let down, which says something. The controls are clunky in that very specific way where you can tell every button was designed for a touchscreen, there is no jump, and vaulting over cover is this awkward slow shuffle that breaks any sense of momentum. Ben Saxon is actually a decent character and the story ties into Human Revolution in ways I found genuinely interesting, but then the game just ends mid-story with a 'to be continued' that never came. For a few bucks on a deep sale it is worth a look if you are a Deus Ex completionist, but I would not pay more than that for something this short and this unfinished.

С этой игрой я познакомился ещё в далёком 2014 году, когда она только появилась на Android. Графика, открытый мир. На стареньком планшете это смотрелось и игралось тогда очень хорошо. Но вот спустя некоторое время вышел т.н. порт для ПК. И я реально думал, что проблемы мобильной версии будут хотя бы частично исправлены. Но хер там. Сюжет всё так же обрывается на полуслове. ИИ врагов никак не изменили. У противников всё такое же зрение -15. 1 слот для сохранения. Зафейлил сайд квест и сохранился? Ну, бро, надо быть внимательнее, проходи теперь всю игру заново. Топорные анимации и текстурки 988 год, Крещение Руси. Отзывчивость управления. По ощущениям, в руках не мышь, а штурвал корабля. Магазин... Я ещё мог принять это на мобилке, но когда в ПК версии, ты просто можешь посреди перестрелки в притоне закупиться патронами, пивом и энергетическими батончиками, то это ломает всю иммерсивность через колено. Если кратко - халтура и кривое говно. Потенциал "Эффекта Икара" слит в унитаз.

Это хорошая мобильная игра, но переносить её на ПК без технических доработок было неразумным решением. Проект заброшен и обрывается клиффхэнгером после первой главы.
