Deus Ex: The Fall

It is exactly what you'd expect from a low-effort mobile port from 2014. Its flaws come heavily from the fact that it dumbed itself down to be a mobile game in the first place. Imagine a shooter where the aim button and the shoot button are the same button, and progression is hidden in the environment; forcing you to look at every wall and piece of furniture that exists if you want to progress. Y'know, as opposed to actually playing the core gameplay loop.

I went into this one knowing it was a mobile port and still came out feeling let down, which says something. The controls are clunky in that very specific way where you can tell every button was designed for a touchscreen, there is no jump, and vaulting over cover is this awkward slow shuffle that breaks any sense of momentum. Ben Saxon is actually a decent character and the story ties into Human Revolution in ways I found genuinely interesting, but then the game just ends mid-story with a 'to be continued' that never came. For a few bucks on a deep sale it is worth a look if you are a Deus Ex completionist, but I would not pay more than that for something this short and this unfinished.

- Мамо! Хочу "Деус Екс"! - У нас є "Деус Екс" вдома. Деус Екс вдома: Але якщо без жартів, то гра хороша. Невеличкий спін-офф, який доповнює всесвіт цієї прекрасної серії. Якою б всратою не була ця частина, мені шкода, що продовження історії Бена та Анни, скоріш за все, світ ніколи не побачить.

a hidden gem for those that love tutorials and hate actual gameplay 👍 -1/10

Disregarding the fact that this is a mobile port, this is a terrible game. Flat voice acting that sucks the life completely out of you making any interest in the story die on arrival. It has an obtrusive and obnoxious tutorial, made all the worse by how it makes you do an aug upgrade and then that upgrade is almost immediately gone again. This is a spin-off multiple games in, I'm pretty certain the player knows how the praxis system works by now. There's exposition dumps galore, hit detection is weird. They decided there'd be no jumping unless it's over specific barriers (seriously, we're still doing the no jumping thing?). Whether or not you can duck behind a wall seems very arbitrarily determined. Enemies can just randomly teleport behind you. I experienced at one point the magical vanishing floor of death. Once again the energy for your abilities is a yoke around the player's neck. And it pulls the cardinal sin of being open-ended when it's obvious they didn't even know whether they'd have another in the series. 5 hours of my life wasted on this piece of garbage.

Pretty good Deus ex, a little short and clunky but it's pretty fun, not sure about the negative reviews, it's not a complete concord Bro tips : 1-do not save when you are in a tunnel or you will be softlocked 2-don't buy anything from the marketplace if you plan to 100% this thing

cheap knockoff compared to rest of series

Это хорошая мобильная игра, но переносить её на ПК без технических доработок было неразумным решением. Проект заброшен и обрывается клиффхэнгером после первой главы.
