Deus Ex writer: “We talked about doing Deus Ex 3 ourselves”

The writer of the original Deus Ex has revealed that Ion Storm discussed developing a Deus Ex 3 themselves before the studio was forced to close – and that, as with Deus Ex: Human Revolution, they were “thinking also along the lines of a prequel”. But he gives Eidos Montreal’s new game his “blessing” and “hopes it does well”.

Deus Ex Deserves Better Than Being A Scapegoat For Embracer's Screw-Ups

Hanzala from eXputer says, "After multiple delays, cancellations, and ownership changes, the misfortune of Deus Ex continues; this gem of a series deserves better."

One can only hope at this point Embracer will need to generate an influx of cash flow, and what better way to do so than to sell off some of its IPs... namely Deus Ex, to a competent and talented studio capable of delivering a game noteworthy of the name in future. And thinking about it further, I don't know why Embracer would sit on the IP vs sell it if it means staying in business or not.

An update from Eidos Montréal

Crafting emotions since 2007.

The Embracer Group brings the Embrace of Death, once again.

staticall500d ago

Yeah, they should be renamed to Embarrassment Group at this point. Bought every studio they could lay their hands on just to fire people from them, close them or cancel their games.

ROCKY28500d ago

100 % The CEO is a PIG and it showcases how Embarrassment Group has always been a sham of a company
within the game industry !

Seems like the most turnover is being generated by companies making acquisitions and cuts.

Ahhhh a man of culture, Futurama is the best.

It's like they don't know their behinds from their elbows.

UPS just signed all their drivers to a huge contract.

In order to afford the contract, UPS is laying off management.

That's how all of this should work. Lay off management. That's how a business can be more "efficient."

God this hurts, I love Eidos Montreal. They make great games.

Si-Fly500d ago

They’ve not closed the studio.

VincentVanBro500d ago

I know, but they laid off 97 employees and canceled my most anticipated release from their studio.

Xenial500d ago

Shouldn't laugh because of the situation. But that did make me lol.

Bro f$&k Embracer. How do companies not even understand basic concepts like “don’t count your chickens before they hatch”? And now all these peoples lives are upended because of it.

KwietStorm_BLM500d ago

Fkn trash. They had no business buying up all those studios with house money. I been waiting so long for the next Deus Ex. All these large scale consolidations are bleeding out the industry one at a time.

They were banking on Saudi money. When the Saudi Government backed down everything fell apart.
