Did it filter you /v/?inb4 >B-BUT MUH CONSOLISATION!!!!!NO! It was demanding to run on modern PC's at the time as well it's a miracle it ran on the highest end console at all
>>720138031>>B-BUT MUH CONSOLISATION!!!!!>NO!>It was demanding to run on modern PC'sthat's not the pointthe entire game had to make compromises to be playable with a controller
>bad game.....good!
that bland soulless protagonist with trash VA was the furthest thing from a chadthe female alex is a bit better but still
Tried playing it a couple months ago after playing 1. I thought "it couldn't possibly be as bad as everyone says."I was so wrong, it really was that bad.
>2000's haircut with crypto frosted tips>Gun pointed sideways>Leather Jacket >Tagline that heavily dates the game in the wake of 9/11 as Bush and co. begin the "War on Terror" in earnest continuing the endless era of sandshit wars for Israel>Filters youYep it's kino time
>>720138031why did they make the world look like the 5th element? pretty gay
>it's a miracle it ran on the highest end console at allRetard. It had to CRASH itself every time you go past a loading screen. Shit was cut to pieces just so it could run on a console
>>720138031>he thinks that people are talking about the graphics when they complain about the game being consolizedembarrassing. kill yourself
The small maps suck, otherwise it's not bad.

>>720138031>It was demanding to run on modern PC's at the time as well it's a miracle it ran on the highest end console at allThat critique has everything to do with level design and nothing to do with performance. It very much feels like it's designed with the Xbox 360 audience as it's first priority.
>>720138031Invisible War kicked ass and I don't care what anybody here says.
>>720143931>i want to fuck the helicopter ai pilot ava whatshernameAva Johnson, she was a cute cupcake
>>720138787>NOOOO the world of the future must remain like in early 00s because some youtuber said so
>>720140286>It had to CRASH itself every time you go past a loading screen.Wasn't this a fairly common memory management hack on the Xbox?
>>720138031https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWGpTI60j3g
>>720146582yes but it also does it on pc. it's why the steam pop-up thing on the bottom right that appears when you start a game comes up everytime you enter a level
>>720138031The game has some kino moments (like the coffee shop wars and the ability to screw every side over) but it's blatantly unfinished, with the WTO and Order being the same side plot twist feeling anticlimactic and the Omar ending being completely wtf, why did they want to colonize space, and why is Leo turning on them when helping Leo also helps the Omar?
>>720145880>It very much feels like it's designed with the Xbox 360zoom zoom>Deus Ex: Invisible War is a 2003 action role-playing video game developed by Ion Storm and published by Eidos Interactive for Microsoft Windows and Xbox.
>>720146582Morrowind was the only other game I know of that did that on xbox. It didn’t even work. You had to only open necessary doors, close them behind you, and only take what was absolutely necessary or the game would shit itself with constant disc read errors (which have nothing to do with reading the disc, it was save file bloat)
>>720146987>Omar ending being completely wtf, why did they want to colonize spaceThey are augmented ubermensch, the last of the humankind, capable of surviving in any environment. Of course they will spread everywhere and eventually colonize the galaxy.>why is Leo turning on themBecause he didn't want to be lobotomized
>>720147721>Of course they will spread everywhere and eventually colonize the galaxy.They never say or hint at wanting to do that. They just hide in the shadows. The cutscene for them feels like they had a grander story for them to be told but they ran out of time to flesh it out.>Because he didn't want to be lobotomizedAnd yet by helping Leo you still help the Omar and get their ending why they conquer everything, implying everyone's died off or have been assimilated into their ranks. Again, it comes off like they had a bigger story for Leo, but in his case, they didn't have a proper ending ready in time for when the game had to be shipped.
>>720146579or it can just not look gay, retardit's supposed to be deus ex not ru paul's drag race 2070
the writing at least is far better than hr/md, you’re just starting to see augs really affect civilians in realistic ways (aug only schools and such) rather than dude everyone has mechanical arms and gets called a clank nigger, fucking stupid
>>720140286It was designed for console first too. To this day when you play it, the game kills itself and opens itself back up every loading screen on PC too. Makes it incredibly frustrating to play.
>>720147069Yeah, and it was designed with the Xbox first and foremost in mind. Why the fuck do you think there's no leaning? Why the fuck do you think the inventory is over simplified? Why the fuck do you think levels are so small and cramped, even places that are supposed to be major cities?
I liked it, my friends liked it, journos liked it, seems to me that back then everyone liked it, it had a lot of revolutionary shit in for the time too. It's a shame that ecelebs poison peoples minds and things become retroactively bad just cuz.
>>720148225To be fair, Invisible War didn't do "muh aug racism" much better with the Knights Templar>OH MY NATURAL HUMANITY ALEX DID YOU INSTALL A HECKING AUG THAT HEALS YOUR WOUNDS AND CURES YOU OF TOXINS!!!? AHHHHHH IM GOING INSANE DAY OF THE ROPE FOR YOU AUG NIGGER!!!!>>720148489I was pointing out the game was designed for the OG Xbox, not the 360, you illiterate faggot.
>>720148505100% an autistic consolekiddy that never played the original and got this for Christmas. Why do you feel the need to defend your childhood so strongly? It's okay to like something as a child that's not very good, but growing up is part of life.
dude is just sitting in here copy pasting his pre written bait posts desperate for attention lol
>>720148138>They never say or hint at wanting to do thatYou haven't paid attention>by helping Leo you still help the OmarThere is no correlation between that>why they conquer everythingThey did not conquered everyone, they were the only one who survived
>>720148176The only thing gay and retarded is you, faggot
>every room is usually just one or two hallways>has to include vents from stealth like the original game did>so it's just one vent opening at each end of the hallway>to prevent this from completely invalidating the game they just stuck spiderbots in every ventWhat a retarded game lol
>>720148505>i played this game as a kid and liked it>therefore it was universally loved and e-celebs brainwashed everyone into hating youDo the retards who say shit like this understand that all of the autistic internet arguments from back in the day are still around and there's nothing stopping you from looking up what people were saying about the game when it came out? We have old usenet posts from the 90s where people call each other niggers for their opinions on the n6t4 and you retarded gorilla niggers think that stuff even more recent somehow vanished from the internet forever.
>>720149000>You haven't paid attentionNot a rebuttal>There is no correlation between thatYou get the same Omar ending regardless.>did not conquered everyone>they were the only one ESL. Your opinion has no worth.
>>720149095>WAHHHHi don't speak gay-babysorry you grew up with this bargain bin crap instead of a better game (which would be most in existence)
>>720138031SHAN'T.
>>720149309Autistic people don't understand that people can have different opinions than them and get personally offended by it. And because they never mentally mature they continue to like everything they did as kids and never develop better taste.
>>720148824It made more sense that only a tiny crazy minority would be rabid anti-aug. I'm playing Mankind Divided now and every rando on the street going 'fuck off ya clanker' sounds a tad silly.
>>720149835Boss.... you killed a child....
>>720149408Ah you a retard, for a second I thought you had honest question
>>720150192>every rando on the street going 'fuck off ya clanker' sounds a tad silly.It makes sense considering the augmented basically brought about the downfall of human civilization and killed hundreds of thousands or even millions while in their augment fueled psychotic break. Most people would see augmented people as demons after that.It's still stupid and the ending to HR sucked and HR as a whole should've been a totally separate canon instead of having to try and make another game to get to the world of the OG Deus Ex where almost nobody is augmented.
>>720149430I played and enjoyed both games and don't see a reason to be infantile fanboyish faggot like you
>>720150391Amazing
>>720150192It makes sense they exist, but the Templar are presented as so cartoonishly hateful you wonder why they're a join-able faction.>>720150414>you a retard>I thought you had honest questionRanesh, please cease the needful redeeming bloody sar.
>>720149309Fuck off Trandalore faggot
>>720150686>I played and enjoyed both gamesWHAT A MAN!GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODSTHIS IS IT!
>>720150912What? Is that some e-celeb you blame for people hating invisible war? Kill yourself, retard.
Is there a definitive guide to making this work on windows 11?
>>720148505I gave it a fair shot, it's just okay. But that is terrible for a sequel to something that many call the best game ever. The maps are much smaller (Eidos demanded the more resource-hungry UE2 for prettier screenshots). The unified ammo system makes no sense. The unified multitool / lockpick system sucks. The new interface sucks (designed for gamepads). The music is not memorable (they told the composer to make it "ambient" a la Thief).
>>720151371No, but there is for Windows 10. 11 is SHIT.https://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=147423
>>720138031Even on Windows 7 it played like shit.
>>720151371Try https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Deus_Ex:_Invisible_War
>>720151496Even on XP and the Xbox it played like shit. The developers made it so the game literally has to crash itself and reopen on level loads because it'd run out of memory otherwise.
>>720151579Was it a case of ``we lost the technology to get us back''?
>>720150867>jeets live rent free in his head
>>720151072I accept your concession
Jon Blow was a programmer on this game btw
>>720138031This was my first Deus Ex and I liked it at the time but I had some annoyances and I thought the worldbuilding seemed shallow.
>>720151579iirc there’s a mod that combines levels to remove some loading screens
>>720138031NG Resonance was a kino character.And my first exposure to kidneytheives which are also kino.
