Deus Ex: Human Revolution is one of the best games in recent memory. It is one of those few gaming experiences that delivers the whole package: gameplay, story, graphics, and the choice to play the game in multiple ways. It then goes beyond all that with a story which, despite its very Robocop-style beginning, comes off as original and poignant, making you care for the characters and the world at large. It left us wondering what will happen to that world in torment (even though we know, since this is a prequel) after the credits roll and we leave that black and yellow masterpiece behind us. Human Revolution is a true successor to the Deus Ex name.
Saad from eXputer: "I'm glad I don't have to choose between Square Enix, Atlus, and FromSoftware due to bad release windows and Shadow of the Erdtree."
Atlus is releasing their game one week before Erdtree, SE is releasing theirs one week after.
HZD released four days before Zelda, HFW released one week before Elden Ring.
It seems to me like they are still releasing their games too close to Erdtree.
Yuji Naka was fined $1.2 million and given a suspended jail sentence for the crime.
I find his comments around how Balan turned out to be very insightful as to why the game is trash. He basically apologises for its existence
can you please give some of us who don't know anything about this, a summary of what happened?
Balan was knowingly rushed out by S-E, it had an extremely short dev cycle and was fairly low budget.
Naka was the game's director until near the end when he was fired or perhaps he quit, I forgot.
@Chocoburger Yeah they did fire and replace him which caused him to unload a bunch of rants about the company. The project only existed because of Naka in the first place, he convinced Square to give him one shot at making a platformer. They gave him an opportunity but pulled the rug out before he was done for reasons not explained.
The top producer of Square Enix flagship Dragon Quest franchise is stepping down from the role, following delays in developing the next installment of the popular series.
Please o please don't turn dragon quest into final fantasy square enix we dont wont that. Dragon quest works well just as it I. Plus you'll piss off Japanese fans to.
Hopefully they don’t. From this it doesn’t sound like that is the case and development is just taking too long.
Getting good scores across the board by looks of it.
Man, the series never really hooked me, but the great reviews for this are really piquing my curiosity.
My copy says it's out for delivery, but I want it now!
So glad this one turned out so great.
Awesome score!!
Picked my copy up today before work! :)
