Deus Ex: Human Revolution Directors Cut edition review

Deus Ex is set in a future where people enhance themselves with body augmentations. They range from  uses like prosthetic limbs to weapons or to use as we would use our smartphones currently, however there is a group of radicals who believe in not modifying the human body who try to stop it. You play as Adam Jensen, an ex swat member who was hired as head security of Sariff corporations the very company to invent and introduce these modifications. After a terrorist attack Adam is almost killed, on the brink of death doctors save him by loading him full of these augmentations.

Throughout the game your actions gain you xp points, these points along with upgrade cards can be spent to improve the augmentations Adam has. These upgrades are mostly the usual ones like more inventory or health while other ones (like punching through light walls) gave interesting opportunities to me as a player. The game mainly plays in a first person format with a third person cover system (the camera pans from the characters point of view to slightly behind them while they take cover behind objects). The guns are unique looking in appearance with most looking futuristic and sleek others looked like they hadn't changed with age in this games depiction of the future. The shooting feels nice but the enemy artificial intelligence leaves much to be desired. All they seem to be able to do is look at you, shoot and move left to right a little. (I didn't get that far into the game yet so this may just be the easier ai at play.

Deus Ex: HR seemed really fun from what short amount I played and I look forward to beating it, even though its almost 4 years old this game holds up very well.
