    Amazing Game. Absolutely loved it. Played it with my Predator 34x / 980ti sli unit and 6600k CPU - However !! Learnt pretty quick SLI is rubbish.

Deus Ex Human revolution's ending was infinetly better (Boss fight WAY better in this game though). Am disappointed Megan not actually in the game, i actually missed Pritchard. Still Quite amazing. But not perfect hence 8-9/10. I did at points actually think this game was better than revolution - however ending damaged it significantly and revolution will remain superior as a story.… Expand

    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

    I feel compelled to offer a review here because I feel the PC version of this game is getting too much negativity. 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 soI feel compelled to offer a review here because I feel the PC version of this game is getting too much negativity. 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

    - PC optimization not good
    - micro transactions
    - 1 time only bonuses from pre buy + day 1 DLC
    - story not so interesting and I think too short

    There is alot of rubbish being said about this game. As a big fan of the franchise, completing the first when it came out in 2000, i tried to wait out for a sale but finally gave in to buy Mankind Divided. So far, I am not in any way disappointed.

    I've not completed the game but want to give a preliminary review.

    The good -

    Graphics are a generational leap above the previous game, don't listen to anyone who will tell you otherwise. The graphics are superb and with an RX 480 I can pretty much max everything with a very smooth frame rate. The benchmarks you see in youtube are generally hub areas where not much action happens, so a lower FPS is more tolerable. In actual gameplay areas I rarely see FPS drop under 60.

    There is so much detail in the world that sometimes you want to take 10 minutes just to go over 1 small room with a fine tooth comb, making sure not to miss anything.

    Sound and music is great

    There is an insane amount to explore, considerably more than the last game. You will be spending alot of time on side quests which -are- interesting, which is a rare thing.

    All of the game systems are fleshed out. Hacking has been improved and is somewhat challenging and rewarding. Gun fighting is much better. The cover system is decent. The AUG system offers more depth and there is an array of interesting abilities.

    The PC port is technically good with no stability issues, no crashes so far. Some people say they have problems with a floaty mouse, i've had no such problems. There doesn't seem to be any acceleration either. Running on a 2500k, 8gb of 1600mhz ram and an RX 480.

    The bad -

    Microtransactions are distasteful, although totally irrelevant. They are there exclusively for rich kids who may be willing to spend real money to buy credits if they can't quite afford something ingame. You can completely ignore the microtransactions with no effect on your experience.

    DLC - say no more

    The PC port, while technically good (doesn't crash, good frame rate, many graphics options), is flawed. Hacking for example is a little clumsy and takes some getting used to.

    The game no way deserves a 6/10. You can take with a piece of salt alot of the reviews here, i suspect a number of people are just mad because there is no pirate copy available. If you like the previous Deus Ex games, it is more of the same here with better graphics, more fleshed out game systems and world. The central story may be a little weaker but the side quests do alot to make up for it.    … Expand

Graphics were a bit of an issue early on (GTX 1070, 32GB, i7, 1080p resolution grind to a crawl in some scenes), but no issues after the latest patches.

    One mark goes down to the story: the story is not really engaging - it happens two years after the events depicted in the previous Deus EX, and I find it a little boring. In these type of games you can always dump the story and go to a sandbox mode (e.g. Hitman), but if you go with a story, it has to be compelling.

    Another mark goes down to the micro-transaction store: FAIL. Please don't enforce this type of things on a full priced AAA title. The only reason I dropped one mark (instead of four...) is that there's no need to buy anything from the store to complete the game in a natural way, and the developer doesn't shove the storefront in your face.

    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.

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.

    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.

    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?

    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

For example in every room you need to access to ....you will find a way to enter using hacking and stealth and move-heavy-objects augmentation and every other options...always...so it feel repetitive and seems that it doesn't really matter the way you choose to improve your character.
    Combat also has been simplified and there is almost no mini bosses fights.
    I hope for a third game with the quality of the first one and a continuation in this great saga.    … 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.    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.

    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

    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

    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.

    There is almost nothing you can complain about regarding the Mankind Divided gameplay. To achieve a greater score new Deus Ex lacks a better story and the possibility to "turn off" Czech language. [Issue#267]

    Despite the "Can't stop the progress" tagline, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is pretty much a rehash of the previous game.
