    Un délice !
    Mankind Divided fait partie de mes jeux favoris.
    J'adore l'ambiance de ce jeu comme dans Human révolution. La bande sonore est vraiment cool, les graphismes au top et le gameplay excellent. Adam JENSEN est vraiment cool et la VF fonctionne bien. Les 3 DLC sont bien aussi. Le seul défaut qui lui enlève 1 point ces pour les rarissimes crashs que j'ai eus. J'espère que nous    Un délice !

    When this game was released, there were some controversies regarding microtranscation and using current social issues in it's promotional material, both were nonsense of course, the ms were only for praxis points and can be totally ignored, but a bunch of butthurted people back then gave this game a bad review just for that, saying it's “Sending a message” to the devs, we'll get back on that later.

    Another criticism is that the game is way too short, these players probably just blow through the game thinking it's Call of Duty, the Dev actually did a smart thing in this game, instead of a huge open world that has nothing to explore, they made a small but very detailed part of the city, there are so many hidden quest and areas to explore in every nook and crannies, so IF you play the game properly like the first first game, or even Human Revolution, you'll find hours upon hours of content outside of the main quest, it's like complaining Skyrim's main quest is short, the main quest is only the side dish, it's the other optional quest are the main meal, but instead a bunch of dumb players just finish the main quest and gave it a bad review.

    So the player “Sending a message” to the dev about ms and giving it a bad review based on the main quest alone, compleletly ignoring how great the artistry and sound design is, how intricate the full of content the city is, and some minor bugs and gliches which were fixed but still more complains then praise, what do we have in the end?

    The dev just stop trying, we don't get a sequel.

    Great job guys, you really send them a message, a message that means hard work and minor mistakes gets punished, I just want to say screw you to all those dumb ass who gave the dev a lot of crap for no reason, this game was way ahead of it's time, it's way better then Cyberpunk 2077, but lots of you just don't appreciate what we have, and now the franchise is dead/ on hiatus or whatever.    … Expand

    8.5 / 10 ❤️ - Very good game
    (after 72 hours of playing & completing the game)

    A direct sequel to "Deus Ex: Human Revolution". I would like even more. We have no influence on the ending and it clearly suggests that there should be another sequel.

    Broken microtransactions. For about 5 cents, we can buy money and skill points, which makes it pointless to worry about character development

Ancak 2016 yılında çıkmış bir oyunun çatışma mekaniklerinin ve görselliğinin çok daha iyi olmasını beklerdim. 2011'de çıkan deus ex human revolution'ın üzerine neredeyse hiçbir şey koymamış. Teknik açıdan biraz hayal kırıklığı oldu. Çok daha yeni çıkmış büyük oyunlarda bile bu kadar uzun yükleme ekranı beklememişimdir. İyi ki SSD'de oynamışım, yoksa her öldüğümde çıldırırdım sanırım.

    Hikayeyi beğendim. Amirimizden bile oyunun sonuna kadar şüphe etmemiz, tekinsizlik hissini iyi veriyordu. Senaryoda aynı anda birden çok grup ve düşmanla uğraşıyor ve sürekli yapmamız gereken kritik bir görevimiz oluyordu. Hatta bazı noktalarda iki görevden birini seçmek ve diğerini feda etmek zorunda kalıyorduk. Bu da oyunun sonunu etkiliyor. Yan görevler de iyi kotarılmış diyebilirim. Bazıları insanı geriyordu ve gizem duygusunu körüklüyordu. Onun dışında boş getir götür görevleri koymamışlar hiç. Buna sevindim.
    Oyunu sanırım bir iki kişi hariç kimseyi öldürmeden, hep bayıltarak bitirdim. Ki onu bile çok az yaptım, genelde düşmanlardan saklanarak ve kaçınarak ilerledim. Mecbur kaldığımda arkadan yaklaşıp bayılttım. Şok tabancasını bile çok az kullanmışımdır. En başta hitabet yeteneğini kastığım için birçok problemi sadece konuşarak hallettim.

    Bölüm dizaynını başarılı buldum. Edindiğiniz skillere göre bir yere kolayca bir yoldan girebileceğiniz gibi, o yoksa uzun uzun oyalanmak zorunda kalabiliyorsunuz. Edindiğiniz yetenekler oyunu oynayış şeklinizi kökten değiştiriyor. Ben hack'i çok kullandım örneğin. Kameraları falan kapatarak, açılmaz kapıları hack'leyerek düşmanlardan kaçındım. Dileyen pata küte sıka sıka da gidebilir.

    Sonuç olarak oynanışta fazla fazla özgürlük sunan ve bunu hissettiren güzel senaryolu başarılı bir oyun.    … Expand

    Deus Ex: Mankind Divided was a good game and a lot of fun to play.
    Was it perfect? Probably not, but what is. In this day and age which is turning out to be the Age of Multiplayer, I'm pretty grateful for any decent single player game.
    Most of the gameplay mechanics from HR are still there, and Jensen has some new toys to play around this time, which can be quite fun. Especially Tesla.    Deus Ex: Mankind Divided was a good game and a lot of fun to play.

    Most of the gameplay mechanics from HR are still there, and Jensen has some new toys to play around this time, which can be quite fun. Especially Tesla.
    Compared to HR, the main story IS shorter and probably less mysterious, yet still manages to be engaging and face the player with some tough choices. The greatest weakness is that the game obviously suffers from the "second part of a trilogy" syndrome - we don't get any resolution to the main mysteries, not really, and the ending is quite abrupt (I was reminding of Mass Effect 2 in this aspect). This is all the more hurtful because apparently the series has been put on ice by Eidos.
    The game got a lot of heat because of the microtransactions, which I managed to fully ignore and didn't feel like my game was any worse for it - I guess it only matters if you want to have it super easy at the beginning with tons of praxis points and such, but the game isn't too difficult either way.

    Another minor flaw, which probably won't bother most people, is that the Czech language in this game sucks, big times. Not the spoken Czech, that's actually fine, but pretty much everything written, and all the names are just wrong. But unless you're a native Czech speaker, you probably won't mind that.

    Otherwise, it's clear that a lot of work and care went into the game (which makes the language issue puzzling - is there not a single Czech proofreader in Canada?), facial animations are pretty solid (lip-sync is a bit shady at times) and the visuals and general designs are just stunning.
    What I enjoyed the most, however, were the side missions. All of them were expertly crafted, well thought out, full of surprises and populated with interesting characters with their own agendas. There was not a single boring fetch quest, which I find deliciously refreshing :)

    It's not too long a game, with all the side missions it took me about 40 hours to finish. I recommend this game to everyone who enjoys a good stealth single player experience with interesting stories.    … Expand

    A solid follow-up to Human Revolution. The game design and world are as strong as ever however the story becomes even weaker than the previous game. In my opinion this game would have been a lot better if it featured a new protagonist rather than stripping jensen of his augs but I think the character was too iconic at this point.

    This game must be played slowly ... with passion, merging into the atmosphere of the game and the plot.
    If you only quickly run through the story missions, this game will leave you feeling incomplete, understated, as if you did not notice something important.

    Give this game a chance to reveal itself, and it will add to you, be sure.

    A game of wasted chances that is still VERY good.
    This game could be easily 10+/10 but the devs and publisher sabotaged it.
    First: by Denuvo (I bought it only few weeks ago, only because GOG released a drm-free version). Second: by launching a money-grab campaign from day 1 (micro transactions in a single player game AND connecting DX:MD to some crappy mobile games). Third: story    A game of wasted chances that is still VERY good.

    Second: by launching a money-grab campaign from day 1 (micro transactions in a single player game AND connecting DX:MD to some crappy mobile games).
    Third: story that promises you best Deus Ex experience ever, and then rushes to a harsh ending, teasing you all the time with something better that is not coming.

    Mechanics, graphics, music, level design - these are 9-10 / 10. Without question.

    Story (the single MOST important thing in an RPG, Deus Ex especially) is jaw-dropping at the beginning. Intro and the beginning of the game, like first few hours, are 10/10. Like reading the best book in your life, but you can interact with it.
    But when you progress, you start to discover more and more and more astonishing, brilliant pieces of the story and the world... that are simply left for nothing... You get teased about interesting events, incredibly well designed places in the world, pieces of e-mails, items, dialogues - that lead to NOTHING.

    This is INCREDIBLY frustrating. I got the feeling like the game is an extensive demo when it comes to the story.
    Don't get me wrong - the story writing is GREAT. But how it develops in game is... underwhelming at best. There are so many superb-crafted jaw-droping things you learn, that you can not use in any way, or that lead to literally nothing, that it makes you wanting to cry sometimes.

    Story-wise - the game seems rushed, it seems there was AT LEAST 2x more quests and storyline planned.

    One one hand - I love this game and it's story. On the other hand, I felt like someone served me a 10/10 meal and suddenly took half of it away when I was enjoying it...

    I suppose an unbiased score for DX:MD would be 7/10.
    Add +1 if you liked DX:HR, and another +1 if you like this kind of games.
    For me both fo these are true, so my personal score for DX:MD is 9/10.

    PS. I was playing the GOG version - DRM free, no micro transactions, no Denuvo, no connection to the mobile app. And that's good. That is how the initial release should look like.    … Expand

    Pros:

    -Actual openness, there are so many ways to complete missions it's ridiculous, whether it is a lethal approach or ghosting your way through missions there are well placed vents, traps and ways to leverage.

    -The Future city of Prague feels really lively and well crafted, interiors and exteriors are given a-lot of detail and it is extremely polished. Golem city gives a total future slum feel and cyberpunk industrial areas are so rich in atmosphere. The vents that you crawl in are vastly different as well, from the clean and heavily monitored bank vents to the noxious gas filled sewers and messy dump crawl spaces in the slums.

    -There is too much todo but at the same time when you really slow it down you can appreciate everything the setting has to offer, NPC chatters, bar's sell beer, redlight district blaring music in the club, personal touches that are going on that might be missed if you just stop and appreciate

    -Combat is not over the top hard and you mostly learn to resource manage and don't take on a big group at once, you also get to plan your encounter like in hitman games, sometimes i feel like Adam is only lacking the disguise feature for it to actually become a hitman game.

    -A bit of a controversial move but i like that choices are locked and alter's the game play. some completionists will argue that but it is a roll playing game, sometimes trade offs has to be made.

    - You actually feel like a detective in this game uncovering conspiracies as the game progresses, there are some really good revelations down in this game and moral dilemmas that give weight to decisions.

    - The dialog is pretty good as well, except maybe for Adam because he can be such a edgelord

    Cons
    - I don't think there will be anymore from this series unfortunately. :(

    A great game for fans of Human Revolution. Lets you customise how you can play and can approach combat different each time and gives you alternatives to lethal combat. Tech side of things is fun, if a little repetitive in the mini games. Slightly abrupt ending but worth a play.

    Woah!! This game was exactly what I expected Human Revolution to be, even though I expected it to be somewhat poorer because of some bad reviews. I expected HR to be an amazing game that would sweep me off my feet, but it was just an all-round really solidly good game. MD did sweep me off my feet though, and not once or twice.

This game was exactly what I expected Human Revolution to be, even though I expected it to be somewhat poorer because of some bad reviews. I expected HR to be an amazing game that would sweep me off my feet, but it was just an all-round really solidly good game. MD did sweep me off my feet though, and not once or twice.

    To start with, it's a **** PERFECT sequel, with most mechanics, world design elements osv retained, but improved, and an appropriate amount of new stuff added. Feels like a perfectly natural continuation of the story and of the gameplay from HR, but significantly more advanced.

    The main story (albeit in completionist "mode") took me 61 hours to finish, which is by far the longest shooter I've ever played, (maybe apart from Just Cause 2, but that's a massive open-world game). The DLCs took further 17 hours, and I haven't even played the Breach (an alternative puzzle mode). Impressively, at no point in the game did I feel like I wanted it to end already, which often happens to me even in 10-15h games!

    positive:
    - mindblowing (!!!!!!) world and object design. I swear they must've hired genuine architects and interior designers for this game. Fantastic attention to detail and beautiful design throughout. Also almost no repetitiveness, which was the biggest annoyance in DX:HR for me.
    - amazing soundtrack!! there were several occasions when I didn't really want to progress because the music was so awesome.
    - amazing main character design and voice acting
    - the game still very robustly justifies the "science" in "science fiction"
    - very good npc model design and voice acting overall
    - very satisfying, fun and balanced combat. really well-implemented on-the-fly weapon modification mechanics, great weapon design, etc.
    - well-executed stealth mechanics
    - great story and side quests
    - enjoyable and well-balanced augmentation system
    - really sick atmosphere
    - greatly improved npc interaction (e.g. they'll say something if you steal from them, or confront you if you do it several times), really couldn't complain this time, all forms of interaction were pretty solid, also when stealthing, etc.
    - better XP balance (e.g. the game gives you XP for using uncovered codes instead of hacking stuff, so actually encourages exploration and reading everything)
    - greatly improved takedown mechanics (e.g. enemies are pulled behind cover as part of takedown from hiding, instead of being thrown forward or just down, which was a major annoyance in DX:HR)
    - virtually no boss fights, which is great, because who needs that! and they were underwhelming in DX:HR
    - top notch user interface design and implementation
    - the world is significantly bigger than in DX:HR and a lot more fun for exploration, with a great amount of well-planned hidden areas, hidden lore, etc.
    - virtually no bugs
    - cutscenes rendered in high resolution, not 1995 quality like in DX:HR :)

    negative:
    - still horrible lip sync, or virtually no sync (sometimes seemed random), which is very strange for a game of this magnitude
    - still no reflections in mirrors, which is again a bit puzzling for a game of this magnitude
    - some frame drops when entering open areas for the first time in a while, but nothing tragic    … Expand

    Deus Ex: Mankind Divided - an honest review

    First of all let me say I'm one of those who didn't have technical issues on my PC and I'm a huge cyberpunk fan (DeusEx, SystemShock 2 are some of my all time favs). Tha being said I absolutely loved Human Revolution, it was a huge step towards right direction. Naturally I expected that MD will improve upon that and those I pre-ordered.

    Tha being said I absolutely loved Human Revolution, it was a huge step towards right direction. Naturally I expected that MD will improve upon that and those I pre-ordered.

    THE GOOD:
    - better action gameplay (if you choose to play it like that)
    - Side Quests (some are much better than the main plot)
    - improved graphics if you ignore animations
    - soundtrack
    - improved hacking
    - new augs are really cool
    - dialogs are more fluid

    CONS:
    - even tho there are many hidden rooms that you can sneak into, main hub just feels a bit of console oriented and claustrophobic
    - that being said, there is only ONE main hub in the game which makes this game feel kind of like Dragon Age 2 compared to Dragon Age: Origins
    - very unstable frame rate (even on high end PC-s)
    - FOV is a bit to small even on max settings
    - weird mouse acceleration
    - stealth is not as fluid as before
    - STORY and MAIN QUESTS fall rather short if not disappointing

    Overall it is a nicely done SF/CyberPunk world with fun gameplay, some nice quests and great soundtrack. It is also a game that creates much less of an atmosphere compared to HR or DX1, story is really weak, animations and lip sync are bad, there are a lot of technical issues at the moment and the game lacks variety of the world around you (even tho main hub changes a bit over time).

    It's solid, very good game, but it just doesn't deliver after much better Human Revolution. Fair 8/10    … Expand

    My only complaint excluding the story would be the multiplayer mode Breach. From their marketing I figured out it was an actual multiplayer mode where players fight each other using Deus Ex gameplay. But when I tried it I realized it was a Single player mode with Online leaderboards. Not realy multiplayer in my book.

As an example an apartment block I just visited in HR actually only has one room you can go in. MD has some where you can go in most/all of them. HR allowed you to play without killing people yet it forced you to do so in boss battles and starts the game with only a lethal weapon. In MK you can play the entire thing without killing.

    It does leave some plot elements hanging but that's because it's intended as part two of a trilogy. The whole micro-transactions thing is overstated. They are completely optional, just like in the more recent Shadow of War.    … Expand

    It's got good gameplay mechanics and it's replayable by virtue of the different play styles on offer but, based on what I consider a Deus Ex game to be, it fails to meet its potential due to a severe lack of locations.

    My playtime was 39 hours but over 32 of these was in one place; Prague. Imagine if the original DX was almost entirely in Hell's Kitchen?

    Then there's 2 hours or so in Golem city, which admittedly is beautifully designed with a huge attention to detail. However, the rest of those 5 hours are made up of a miniscule 3 main missions outside of Prague and Golem City. In fact, one of them is the tutorial level.

    If you take a list of the main missions and places to see in the original DX and compare them to Mankind Divided, it's absolutely laughable. There's very little sense of adventure here.

    The game designates missions by M for main and S for side. M17 is the last main mission but don't let the number 17 fool you, MANY of those so-called main missions are simply things like, 'Go back to HQ and see Jim', or 'Go back to your apartment and speak to Alex'.

    There are a lot of side missions, and they're good as side missions go, but they're a poor substitute and in the end you'll spend 30+ hours in Prague, dealing with petty criminals, a variety of odd balls and people down on their luck or you'll be acting like some kind of cat burglar while you collect items and XP. Great if it were in ADDITION to a large variety of main missions but as the core meat of the game I was very disappointed. It's hardly globe trotting, secret facility infiltrating, super-agent stuff.

    Buy this game for the fun of the gameplay but don't expect anything like the original version in terms of an epic story and questline. I'm giving it an 8 but if I was solely comparing it to the original as a fully featured DX game, it'd have to be closer to a 6. In the words of the great JC himself, 'What a shame'.    … Expand

I only bought it recently at half price, and I have to say that I do not understand where the negativity is coming from. The game is EXCELLENT and if you liked Human Revolution, you will like Mankind Divided as well.

    The gameplay is basically the same as Human Revolution, which is actually good, because it works really well. You can play in variety of different playstyles, from silent non-lethal to shoot everything that moves style. There are numerous ways you can get through each area, and they all require different character skills. This diversity is also reflected in gameplay time. On my first play through I wanted to explore everything, complete every quest, hack everything, and read every email. This took me almost 40 hours. In contrast, on my second play through, I just skipped every dialog and completed only the main storyline as fast as possible, which took only 4 hours.

    While the story conclusion does indeed feel a bit underwhelming, overall I still think the story is interesting enough, and I highly recommend doing every side mission. Almost all of them are quite engaging, and I think I will remember some of them for a very long time.

    I definitely recommend buying this game.    … Expand

The plot is great and riveting, the world spanning, the characters even more human then in HR, and more amazing McCann tunes! Breach mode is a brilliant idea and loads of fun. For me, the most important is that the philosophical narrative continues HR in a exploration of humans in social groups in regards to naturals/augs, which we'll probably have to face.

    I don't really understand all the hate - it does not deserve mixed reviews. Pretty most of the people doing reviews on here haven't actually played the damn thing and are just trying to cry about the microtransactions. The monetization (you can use real $ to buy praxis kits) is philosophically irritating, but you can just ignore it because you can overmax Praxis just in the game. I preordered the game, and I couldn't run it at all at more than 5 fps on my 4+ year old potato laptop originally - new desktop handles it okay. There are 2 crashes, one leaving the shooting range, and another which I found turning the graphics settings up to high from my normal performance fixed. There was a liiitttle bit of commentary on current events (EU's migrant crisis) which I found irritating, but it's easily overlooked, applies well to the natural/aug situation and not heavy handed at all.

    I really hope they make the game in the series even though this one apparently sold lackluster, because it's great. I'd pay full price again in a heartbeat, which is a rarity for me. If it goes on sale and you like HR or DX1, grab this sucker. If you're a DX die-hard, I'd say just grab this sucker now.    … Expand

Personally, I'd give a slight edge to Human Revolution, but on the whole, I found this sequel to be a satisfying experience. Where Human Revolution's story was more dramatic and epic in its tone, I think Mankind Divided is more subdued in its setting. The Prague city hub is a showcase of excellent art design and worldbuilding, supplemented by some great ambience by composer McCann. While the main story may have felt somewhat short, the side missions were quite well done and easily made up the bulk of the content. At times, they kind of reminded me of Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines with all the investigative elements and detective work.

    Gameplay wise, it feels quite similar to its predecessor. While lethal combat options are available, it's obvious that stealth is the intended way to go for almost all in-game scenarios. You do get access to some new augs and weapon mods, but these don't make much difference to the gameplay formula.

    I already alluded to before that the story felt a bit short and didn't really progress the overarching plot all that much, so I think that's something that could've been done better. In addition, there are some low-res textures here and there, and the technical performance on PC is somewhat underwhelming given the visual fidelity. The game doesn't look bad per se, but it definitely doesn't blow you away with its graphics. The game also suffers from some backtracking, especially in the late game.    … Expand

    Don't let the negative reviews fool you, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is an amazing game with a great story, interesting characters and excellent gameplay, only ruined by the shady practices of Square Enix with microtransactions and season passes. Once you get past the shady practices, you'll find that the game is basically "Deus Ex: Human Revolution 2.0".

    Like I've stated the story is    Don't let the negative reviews fool you, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is an amazing game with a great story, interesting characters and excellent gameplay, only ruined by the shady practices of Square Enix with microtransactions and season passes. Once you get past the shady practices, you'll find that the game is basically "Deus Ex: Human Revolution 2.0".

    Like I've stated the story is amazing, it's pretty much everything you'd expect in a Deus ex game which is great for the fans. Sometimes the story does get overwhelming but you catch on eventually, also the story is well thought out, showing characters from previous games (like Morgan Everett which you only see in the first game.) the deus ex universe is coming full circle which is what fans would love to see. But the big difference to the story that it's different. Instead of focusing on the Illuminati primary. It really focuses on Task force 29 and Jensen which isn't a bad thing. But for some people they'll like more Illuminati content. The choices you make in this game is nothing I've ever seen before, before you just play pacfist/non-lethal for the best story outcome but now Mankind Divided is strictly focusing how both actions poses rewards/risks which makes the user think how to approach the situation for the best outcome. Also character interaction is great as well. Every single character you speak to, whether it's a NPC on the street or an interactable NPC... they have each different things to say which makes it really feel like you, yourself is interaction with real people. Also gameplay is like Human Revolution but they've fixed the aiming which was a confusing problem at the last game. Also you have your old augments so you can enjoy the augments from DE: HR. But in Mankind Divided you have a few new awesome augs which you can choose from as well. And they have a interesting way to make augment stacking not too powerful so it's a fair game in the end. The ending does seem a big cut out... but because we know that the deus ex universe isn't over, they will probably finish the story with a DLC and with another Deus Ex game so we can expect another game to come out in the next couple of years. Remember, there is still 19 years of Deus Ex lore until we reach Deus Ex 1 so a cliffhanger ending isn't surprising to me at least, but it'll be nice to have some closure.

    But the biggest concerns is 2 things, one is the performance issue which occurs in this game, MSAA is broken, with 50% less performance with MSAA you might as well turn it off until Nixxes patches MSAA to be operational in the future. Also in general the game is demanding, I was lucky to run this game on high settings & triple buffering with a 55 fps avg with a r9 280x in prague which is nice. But I feel like the Dawn engine isn't really optimized because of the fact the game engine is new. And the final problem is the marketing practicing that Enix decided to pull off. Microtransactions for a single player game, that's a really dumb idea to do, I don't personally care for microtransactions because I never buy them, but the good thing about the microtransactions isn't "in your face" so you DON'T have to buy them. I feel like it would have been more acceptable to add microtransactions in the "Breach mode" NOT the single player campaign. Also the season pass is really lacking too, unless if Eidos or Square Enix annouces more content for the season pass... then it feels like a waste of money. If the season pass was 15$... then it would be acceptable for 2 standalone dlcs and a couple of single player "one time usables".

    All in all, get this game if you are a Deus Ex fan, chances are if you hate the idea of microtransactions and protesting about it, you will still like the game because it's basically the prefect successor to Human Revolution. If you are expecting a Human revolution clone... then this is the game for you 100%.    … Expand

    The DLC issue. The same as it goes for microtransactions. Get over it. We ourselves are the cause of this. This will not change any time soon.
    The performance. Unfortunately this port is not the best I have seen. Had to update video drivers, lower a few settings here and there and wait for the latest patch.
    Otherwise it is a great game so far. Give it a chance.

    Update:
    After 92 hours I have spent in this game I can tell You this game has flaws. A very short and abruptly ending main story ('To be continued'), small amount of 'badass' takedowns, horrible hacking (many of those locks seem to be not tested at all), a few bugs, performance issue in past.
    But that seems as a small price to pay for all the amazing things You get:
    Visuals (technologies):9/10 (lip-sync is poor though)
    Visuals (style-wise): 99/10 (no, I am not mistaken - it is this good)
    Music: a less expressive and noticeable, more like an ambient, still a 9.5/10
    Sound: Deep, rich and variate sound 9/10
    Replay-ability: a 10/10, no doubt

    One thing that I want everyone to understand is that it is clear that Square-Enix (the publisher) did not give enough funds to produce this game. It is clear that people in Eidos Montreal are amazingly talented, but a game of this caliber needs a lot more. Something tells me this is exactly why the main story is so short.
    What I am trying to get through to You? Go buy it. Please. Every time we are avoiding buying a complex but a bit flawed game, we make sure this game has less chances to stay alive and get better for the good of all of us. Understand and remember that. We are 'voting' using our own money. Good time of day to You all. Signing out.    … Expand

I will first cover that I have not experienced any game breaking bugs and i'm running a PC that is going on 5 years old. I think if I can run it fine, most people should. Obviously, if you're a PC gamer, it is your responsibility to keep your graphics drivers updated and so on. If you are not, that is on you, not the developer.

    With that said, the major bugs I have ran into:
    - I cannot save sometimes no matter what I do (killing everyone, etc. to ensure my alarm state is gone). The only resolve is shutting down the game and loading it back up.
    - I ran into a bad graphics glitch only on computer screens where I could not read them but I was able to fix this by playing with resolution settings.

    Now, with that out of the way let me touch on the actual game play. The combat feels extremely good (and i'm playing with a Steam controller). I've been maxing out my hacking and sneaking abilities so that I don't have to kill anyone. It is very satisfying, for instance, to complete the entire Palisade Bank without killing one person and hacking all the cameras, doors, robots, lasers, etc. Then just walk through this huge empty building after. For me, this is a perfect stealth game. I'm also a huge fan of the Metal Gear series but I feel this is better than MGSV as far as stealth goes just because the environments are so much more interesting. There are multiple floors, all inter-weaving and connecting, making a huge building one giant puzzle. I feel a stealth game does not really need to be open world, but more so extremely detailed sections to infiltrate, which Deus Ex really nails.

    Where Mankind Divided goes beyond the other Deus Ex games is in it's main city. If you were yearning for more to do in Human Revolutions city, this is exactly the place to be. There are hours upon hours of places to explore like apartments, shops, sewers, subways, and more. The city is bustling with locals, police, gangsters, dealers, hobos, etc. It really feels alive. Honestly, i've already spent about 20+ hours just in the main city, which is all by choice. If that's not your thing, you can certainly rush through the story. But I will say you may be disappointed because the story is not a good reason to play this game. It is roughly 8 hours (if you only do story missions) and really that's where this game falls short. Think of this Deus Ex as almost a sandbox but with more refined areas to explore. You will look at the details in this game, because that's where it is most interesting.

    The augmentations or leveling system is pretty good, if not better, than Human Revolution. You are given a few more options but I will say that you will never become TOO good at any one thing. Everything still feels just good enough that the game will throw you challenges. It is cool that they can bring back all the old augs and they can still feel so useful. I guess that is really a testament to how well Human Revolution was too.

    The weapons can be customized with silencers, lasers, etc. You can add different ammo types like EMP to incapacitate machines. So far all the weapons feel just right, through I've mostly used my stun gun because it's just so damn useful for my play style. I mostly sell everything I pick up and it's made me a little too rich, to be honest.

    Some of the animations still need work, especially facial and speech animations. They still look last-gen. (especially after playing Witcher 3) But the graphics are so gorgeous that it makes you not care. Lighting is top-notch. Environmental detail is really good. It's just characters tend to look a little off in an otherwise beautiful world.

    The in-game pay-to-win options some people are complaining about seems really picky. They are praxis kits/cash on the SE store and never suggested for you to go buy them like annoying apps do. You wouldn't even know they're there if you didn't load up the store. They are out there if you want them but I highly recommend you do not buy them because: a) You don't need them, the game is not THAT hard. b) Don't support pay-to-win... ever.    … Expand

    I have just finished the game, which means a good mark already :) since I was bored by some recent titles so I quit playing them. It took me 66 hours.

    There is no need describing the good points of the game really since it is similar to HR, in a good way. I enjoyed it a lot, going to bed way after 3 a.m. lol. Regarding the bad and "bad" points let me comment on them: 1.    I have just finished the game, which means a good mark already :) since I was bored by some recent titles so I quit playing them.

    Regarding the bad and "bad" points let me comment on them:
    1. Micro-transactions - never used them. By the endgame, I had Jensen fully upgraded the way I liked and 3 unused praxis. Maybe a less hardcore player might want to buy some praxis (cheaply lol), but there is no real need for that. It would even spoil the balance of the game. There is a video at youtube how to find 15 praxis in the game world, I'd miss half of them.
    2. The game runs smoothly on my rig at 2560*1440. Though I had to set mouse sensitivity at 10% (!) of the default setting. At 100% the game might look jerky I imagine. No crashes.

    Now some real but minor gripes:
    3. There too many vents / passages, so convenient... It does spoil the experience a bit IMHO.
    4. There are some cut scenes which cannot be skipped.
    5. The story could give us some more surprises but it is Ok. On the other hand I should note that side missions are not too many and they blend with the main story nicely.

    Maybe it is a 8 title but I am giving it a 9 to compensate those 0-1 whining reviews.
    0, really? Common people!

    Advice for new players: invest in stealth style augs first because there will be many enemies like security who are not bad guys, no need for them to die. Titan is a waste!

    Some of my likes/dislikes, you can compare your and my tastes:
    I liked the following games: Planescape: Torment, Fallout 1, 2, 3 N.W., Jagged Alliance 2, Witcher 1 and 2, System Shock 1 and 2, and Doom 1 and 2, and Spear of Destiny, yes!
    I did not like the following games: Fallout 4, Witcher 3.

    An excellent follow-on to DX:HR, and worthy of the name Deus Ex.

    The most important thing for me in a game like DX is that I need to "fall into" the world. It has to look and feel complete, with details and compelling characters. DX:MD completely succeeds here. I can't say enough good things about the art direction and world design. The level of detail was at times overwhelming.

DX:MD completely succeeds here. I can't say enough good things about the art direction and world design. The level of detail was at times overwhelming. I spent a good deal of time wandering, exploring Prague, listening to conversations (a remarkable number of unique ones), and just getting a feel for the world. When I first got to TF29, I spent at least an hour just exploring, reading email, and talking with everyone.

    I thought the story was fine - compact and focused, yet with tendrils of the larger conspiracy. I didn't think the ending was abrupt. Perhaps that's because I was prepared for it, but I think the main reason is that I look at DX:MD as a serial. There are going to be more episodes, so it is appropriate that not every one is wrapped up neatly. I'm good with that; in fact, I was getting a little tired of the DX formula: the game ending with a conclusive, world-changing event in which the hero decides the outcome. I appreciate the change of pace in MD. Of course, I would have been even more happy with a longer game, but I don't feel cheated.

    The side missions were one of the highlights of the game. Almost all were deep, complex, with fascinating characters and significant choices. The side missions added as much to the game as the overall story; that isn't an indication of the main story's weakness, but of the side mission's strengths. They completed the world. As did the other characters, each unique and with their own set of motivations.

    Game play was solid - a little better than HR. Some of the new augs were pretty cool, but I didn't try them all as I was doing a mostly-stealthy run. Thus, my weapons experience was pretty limited too. The guard AI seemed reasonable.

    Graphic performance was okay; I had to drop down some of the settings from High a bit to get a consistent 60 FPS on my system, which is basically a "Recommended" spec. That was disappointing, as was the lip sync (especially for minor characters). Minor complaints, but complaints just the same.

    As for game length, I played 45 hours. I did all of the side missions, but I didn't explore every nook and cranny. I paid $45 for the game (pre-order on GMG), and considering I plan at least 2 more play-throughs, that is great value-for-money.    … Expand

    Mankind Divided is excellent but felt disappointing and left a bad aftertaste.
    Instead of delivering an enjoyable ride with a dynamic and rich story, the game focused on promoting it's unpublished sequels by stalling the main quest with filler and cliff hangers.
    For a game with a universe that has a magnitude that rivals the one of Half-Life, to deliver a the same amount of story of Doom    Mankind Divided is excellent but felt disappointing and left a bad aftertaste.

    A loss of Magic

    Mankind Divided is a first person shooter slash stealth game that takes place 2 years after human revolution…
    If you haven’t played that game there is a recap video, but honestly human revolution is the much better game, so I’d recommend playing it first either way
    Very early in the game there’s a terrorist bombing.. You spend the rest of the game trying to get to the bottom of this and prevent future terror attacks…
    To bring peace to the division of augs and naturals
    this bombing though messes with your gear...
    You go get it fixed and it’s discovered that you’ve had more cool gadgets under the hood that you didn’t know about…
    These new added abilities are awesome, but they come at a price...
    Too many active will cause over heating, so you have to pick and choose... activate 1 and deactivate another... and much like every other ability and upgrade in the game you have to spend praxis points which are awarded by leveling up in game or by straight up buying…
    The microtransactions are buried, but there for those that want to max Jensen out early on…
    This is still Deus Ex… theres 17 main story missions and 12 side missions…
    The main story alone takes about 8 hours to complete… And while I personally found the story here much more intriguing than human revolution… The gameplay overall is miles worse...
    There is absolutely no depth here that made human revolution such a magic experience...
    The world here isn’t alive…
    Dialog choices seem to hold no weight, and the worst offense of all is that all sense of freedom from the past game has been removed…
    I’m a very aggressive player... and while yes, you can definitely play this game like a first person shooter…
    The game is almost designed completely against you…
    This time around instead of levels being designed for drop of a dime change of plan like getting detected.. It clearly wants you to try your hardest to sneak around…
    This is apparent with how quickly your energy drains when you use a perk…
    Your awesome new armor, or going invisible, lasts for a good half a second before your energy runs out... and theres hardly any biocells laying around or crafting parts to make one on the fly.. Making the system feel nearly useless for anything other than take downs…
    The game wants you crawling through vents instead of using all of the cool toys…
    There are also so many road blocks here that didn’t exist at all in the past game…
    In human revolution you could beat the entire game with only level 1 hacking as the game kept the hacking of story related doors simple…
    Here, they force you to pour your upgrades into hacking with level 2 and 3 locked doors after locked doors…
    Almost in a way encouraging those micro transactions for more skill points to pour there if you’ve ignored it, or to pour them into skills that actually compliment your playstyle…
    There’s also really no cool open areas…
    The game from start to finish feels like you’re walking around hotels… going from room to room…
    There is no attention to detail here…
    At least not up to the standard other deus ex games have created…
    This feels almost like ubisoft annual spin off title than a proper sequel…
    The story kept me going, and this is still a good game if you ignore the fact it’s supposed to be a deus ex game…
    Deus ex, isn’t hacking and augmented abilities…
    It’s a deep and detailed world… which is completely lacking…
    A surprise and welcomed addition this time around is a very cool breach mode which acts as a puzzle platformer, where you work with a hacking group to collect data…
    You run around using the same skills you do in the main game and also unlocks new skills and weapons as you progress through each increasingly tougher level…
    Definitely some brain teasers here and I enjoyed this much more than I thought I would…
    It’s almost a bonus game in itself
    All in All Mankind Divided is a decent game fans will play and at least mildly enjoy either way... It just doesn’t live up to its series standard and not something I could recommend for anyone that isn’t already a fan…
    I give Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

Basically the immersion and depth is good, the tech issues are bad. The world building and atmosphere are excellent, there are plenty of opportunities to play your own way, and the core gameplay and story are very good. A lot of the same problems remain from DE3, NPC's faces look like putty, takedowns and other actions require janky cut-scenes, and the augments energy system is just too wonky. I played 90% of the game using no biocells to recharge, and then burned all of them in the final mission, similarly with all of my excess hacking software. It's a bit too easy to stockpile inventory.

    There's clearly plenty of room for DLC and the devs could easily add hours of gameplay by just sticking in a couple lines of dialogue and an objective here or there. There are several well-detailed environments that do not see much action in the game, and they felt a little underutilized. You could easily add in several side quests to Dubai, the research facility, Golem City, and the finale to give the game more depth and length.

    Definitely had a great time, I'm going to pick up the DLC and do another playthrough once that drops. Default difficulty is probably a bit too easy for someone who has played Deus Ex before; I wish there were a bit more of a challenge when taking the non-lethal approach (the stun gun is pretty much easy mode).    … Expand

    While I hate micro-transactions, and I cannot fathom why the developers thought that was a good idea, I love the Deux Ex series and this is much better than the 2010-era version. Had a great time, one of the best games I've played in the last couple of years.

To see this getting user scores as low as NMS is utterly ridiculous, it fully deserved the 9.2 from IGN and is a worthy successor to Human Revolution.    … Expand

    Mankind Divided rewards exploration and respects your choices throughout its hefty campaign. The city of Prague is absolutely amazing with great details and visuals. The gameplay is also exactly what you expect from a Deus Ex game.
