Wonderful, completely keeps up with the quality whe have come to known as Deus Ex. And a guarantee of minimum sleep for a week because you HAVE to know what happens next.

IMO the story would be improved with Jerod confessing his feelings, flipping a bird to the Illuminati and running off with Adam after being defeated instead of dying. It'd be fucking Brokeback-tastically amusing. But admittedly such a blatant sidestep from heteronormativity wouldn't be the Deus Ex we know - and would damage the fragile sexualities of most gamers.

(Disclaimer: i am not a fulltime yaoi fangirl type. Just occasionally have an episode now and then.)

the ending. note i'm not saying which, just 'the ending'. because the other three don't exist. it is tearwrenchingly lovely.

and Adam's reflexboosted double takedown, the lethal variety - it's a beautiful dance i want to see my enemies invited to.

She's the only character i regret having to kill so far and feel sad about... then as a woman, Eastern, seriously messed up, arguably cyborg, sort-of-alternative looking and many other things i'm biased. i mean i really adored Adam until the combination of falling for Zhao's cheapo act while commenting on Yelena dying to the effect of 'ah screw her'. I still like him to bits but as a 'friend', that combo killed the crush. both things separately would be just mildly silly but together...to misquote Plain White T's - i really really really don't like that

Also Eliza is the first AI char who leaves me indifferent. at least going by the first impression.

So far (mid act 3) i like David most. I might be mistaken in doing so - for as Eliza says, 'Everybody is lying'.

at this point it gets meditative
