Awwwww shit, am I reinstalling Deus Ex for the millionth time?
Probably. That game was an absolute banger.

Thank you for this post. I had no idea this came out
FYI: don't waste an hour like me and read the readme. YOU HAVE TO USE A NEW SAVE AND CANNOT USE ANY PREVIOUS VANILLA OR GMDX SAVES
I liked the voice acting in the Hong Kong level
In the fresh
Would this be a good way to play the game for someone who has never played deus ex?
I've always been interested but never known if I should go in with or without enhancement mods
Honestly I don't see any reason to play any game without enhancement mods aside from not wanting to set them up unless you're some sort of game historian.
Putting this on repeat while I open Heroic Games Launcher and reinstall Deus Ex. One of those "if you see it mentioned it's an instant replay" games.
Btw, Deus Ex GOTY Edition is discounted by 86% on GOG right now during their Gaming Heatwave Promo. It's about the price of a can of beans. Worth it if you ask me.

That VCR can hold a lot of tapes.
Well shit, there goes my weekend. *Loads GEP gun*
Looks like a very cool mod. I'd still like to see a full remake one day, hopefully by the same people who did the System Shock remake.
Honestly I think a Deus Ex remake would kill a lot of the charm, and it's way more playable relative to modern games than the original System Shock.
I love JC but the game's dialog would not hold up at all being delivered by real looking people capable of expressing any emotion.
As much as "oh my god JC, a bomb" is an iconic line read I think you can rewrite and remake the game without it losing what makes it amazing. The story and themes can stand on their own, they don't need the dubious charm of wooden voice acting that sounds like it's literally phoned in from actors cold reading the script.
Rather than a remake, I’d prefer them to complete the damn trilogy. Stupid Square trying to bank on the Avengers.
I'm actually playing Mankind Divided right now for the first time and having a blast. Already dreading the cliffhanger I've been warned about.
Same here. Deus Ex needs a remake.
How does this compare with Deus Ex: Revision?
Good to see HDTP in use.
GMDX v8 was an amazing way to play it since v9 was still a bit buggy. I’m looking forward to another play though with this new update.
Ooh damn I haven't played this yet. I wonder if I can get this playing on my Steam deck
The base game itself isn't on Steam, but the Revision mod that requires the original game says it is playable on Deck.
It is on Steam. Maybe not available in all countries or something?
I just didn't hit enter in the search bar and it wasn't showing up in the small list. I actually own the game on Steam myself. 🤦♂️
I 100% did the same exact thing and switched back to my library to click the store page button.
Let me know if it works!
