There is a huge world out there filled with adventure and possibility, to spend a million hours hunting down every last trophy in this game would be tragic. There's so much potential in Deus Ex: Human Revolution but it's all spoiled the formulaic design.

Plus the whole 'Main Quest with multiple Side Quests' concept is getting a bit old now. Deus Ex is extremely repetitive and many of the levels and environments feature identical architecture and designs. An immersive, political story I can handle, but not as an FPS. Seriously folks, this is a long, long, loooooooooong game. The story is important, and political, and will no doubt be a huge controversy when it eventually develops in real life. It turns out that the game is actually very imaginative, with a frequently deeply emotional soundtrack, and a lovely neo-noir atmosphere of almost perpetual darkness. As it was, I was obligated to play through it as I didn't want a trophy count of 0% to tarnish my list. Had I known that Deus Ex was an FPS I would have opted for some cutesy kiddie's game instead. On top of this I find it just a bit disturbing that millions of gamers all over the world take pleasure in sniping so many bad guys. In fact, it should be illegal to own or produce FPS games from this point onwards. Not only do I think that FPS video games have been done to absolute death, I also believe that they will be the death of video gaming. I had no idea that Deux Ex was a first-person-shooter before I installed it. But won't achieving the dream be worth it? We can become the gods we've always been striving to be. No doubt the road to get there will be bumpy, hurting some people on the way. To turn away from it now - to stop pursuing a future in which technology and biology combine, leading to the promise of a Singularity - would mean to deny the very essence of who we are. For the first time in history, we have a chance to steal fire from the gods. But what if we never need to feel weak or morally conflicted again? What if the path Sarif wants us to take enables us to hold on to higher values with more stability? One thing is obvious. These past few months, I was challenged many times, but more often then not, didn't I try to keep morality in mind, knowing that my actions didn't have to harm others? Time and time again, didn't I resist the urge to abuse power and resources, simply to achieve my goals more swiftly? In the past, we've had to compensate for weakness, finding quick solutions that only benefit a few. but will the outcome always be good? I guess that will depend on how we approach it.
Every time we met an obstacle, we used creativity and ingenuity to overcome it. It's in our Nature to want to rise above our limits. Adam Jensen: Sarif was right about one thing.
