Would that affect be creating games with slightly more depth and the illusion of choice?
Deus Ex HR was brilliant when compared to the current crop of bland linear games....but it was no where near as good as the original Deus Ex, and was in the end thoroughly disappointing in comparison.

Agreed.
Despite that, though, Dishonoured looks promising. Hope it lives up to the hype it's building.

Aww bless. Sometimes the Internet just makes me feel all warm inside.

Agreed. Didn't finish human revolutions as by the end I wasn't compelled to.

You didn't miss much, the ending were terribly done. The endings themselves weren't so bad....but they way you just pushed a button to choose one was awful!
At least in Deus Ex there were actually considerable extra parts of the game to play to get different endings....not just 'select your ending here'...awful.

I try very hard not to judge a game on its ending, and I'd actually say DE:HR was the closest any game as come to DE in a very long time, and that can only be a good thing. Obviously it's not as good as DE, but I'd rather it existed as it is and got us games like Dishonored than didn't exist and we didn't get such games.

Not sure why there's any need to be patronising here. The format of this preview is indeed confusing and, frankly, looks like a mistake - like maybe Joe submitted two drafts and someone unthinkingly published them both.
All I can say it's look like another one of the ugliest game ported down from consoles DISHONORING modern PC hardwares but I will hold my judgement 'til final release.

*That's a good thing in my book.

There we go.
