    A Criminal Past allows you to be able to play it in two different ways, but often times the level design can feel like it demands both. There is also a really bad game-breaking bug in which it stops auto-saving after a certain point, and doesn't allow you to manually save. Luckily I was able to survive the entire second half in which the DLC had already started breaking.

Luckily I was able to survive the entire second half in which the DLC had already started breaking. Maybe I'm the only one who experienced this. Regardless, it hurt my opinion of the expansion as a whole.

    I wanted to give this a positive score, but I just can't ignore the messy and confusing level design of it compared to the main game and System Rift, along with a possible broken save system. It does have a ton of replayability and different outcomes in regards to the story, but you will most likely not want to play through it more than once with the severity of it's flaws in gameplay.

    Deus Ex: Mankind Divided was already one of our favorite games of last year, but both add-ons in Jensen's Stories have kept the game feeling fresh long after release. "A Criminal Past" was a bit more enjoyable than "System Rift" if only because "System Rift" took place in the same confines as the main campaign, and this new DLC lets us see someplace new and different we haven't been exploring for hours on end already. Whatever Square and Eidos have in store for Deus Ex in the future, "A Criminal Past" and Mankind Divided show there are plenty of ways to keep us coming back for more.

    The new Deus Ex: Mankind Divided DLC offers a nice, challenging experience for the player, thanks to a rich and complex new mission, a hefty level design (whereas the prison setting fits perfectly) and a lot of choices that favour the stealth gameplay.
