Deus Ex: Human Revolution brief story
Warren Spector - a man whose name is taken to refer to the same extent and in the queues at ComicCon, and cultural conversations tagged with "transhumanism" and "struggle with the natural nature." As a thirty-year (at the time of 2002) an American designer to have achieved the biggest dream of European universities (we're talking not about ComicCon), - the world is a mystery. After all, Spector, by and large, was a grand impostor: sophisticated concepts of "augmentation" and "genetic terrorism," he was not needed for the development of an important global concept. He was interested in a new format for filing stories: stories cozy book with drama and hard choices.
In 2010, the developer provernuli similar trick with Mickey Mouse (in Epic Miskey instead of people with dentures were Cartoons, but the essence remained the same), and quickly uncovered the deception, but God out of the car was not stopped: the third part of Deus Ex has successfully passed the third year in a . Even though the latter-day developers, British Eidos Sowtware , honestly say that the wait for a complex political parallels and some important philosophy of their game is not worth it.
Stealth at Eidos Sowtware turned almost reference: opponents do not yawn and immediately pay attention to you, you only gromyhnut box. Unforgettable scheme rescues Save / Load.
Detroit, Shanghai, Detroit ... and again Shanghai
In the language of American policemen working day Adam Jensen is not specified. In the spacious light house "Sharif Industries", a world leader in prosthetics limbs, where the hero works as the chief security broke into the guys with the guns and all were shot. More precisely, someone generally disappeared without further details - and among them was Adam's girlfriend named Megan. Adam himself, having served several years in special forces, was able to escape, but only partially - in the local clinic, he had to replace parts of the body.
Before the events of the first part is a quarter-century, so the main character does not suddenly become stylish superman like JC Denton: nice mask dentures had not yet learned, courageous and Adam had to implant the terrible iron pieces, which he conceals under his coat and sunglasses. However, this did not prevent him to go in search of truth.
On the shooter like a "problem": there are closer to the middle of the powerful machine gun turrets and armored.
Each prosthetic body can be improved, and the developers have decided very elegant traditional RPG-issue "maturation" of the hero: a few increments installed already by default. These include simple eye area analyzer (easier - map), the basic hacking abilities, HUD-display with information about health and ammo, etc. That is pumped in general is not required, and if you want a game you can go to the preschool set. But remember the trailers. Much more interesting to punch the wall and strangle enemies with his bare hands. Picking locks quietly for five seconds. Be resilient, as if an ox, quick as an antelope and a jump to the envy of grasshoppers. Also available to improve the fundus (you can analyze the "inner world" interlocutor), dual retractable blade finishing, slightly more resistant sight, simple to augment human potential stealth and a little more all very interesting and exciting things.
Buy "praxis" in the clinic is quite expensive (especially since the money can often spend a great really. For example, buy an upgrade for a gun or a device for picking locks, without any extra effort on your part), and so much more profitable to collect the bits of experience. The easiest way to give XP a desperate travelers: as in Fallout , for the discovery of territories.
Even with a sniper rifle victim, Adam in the game suddenly becomes a hunter.
There are saydkvesty, and is associated with an interesting story. If the Detroit native Adam knows literally everything, from passers-by, ending with former colleagues, it is to go to Shanghai - as the head of his shaft collapses instantly obscure names. Accordingly, the job come across different. Somewhere we are helping to destroy the pyromaniac in town collector, and somewhere - like terrorists assist with Asian faces.
A travel, meanwhile, is a lot - in the Human Revolution developers have not abandoned the multinational adventures kibersoldata. Cities, as before, divided into conventional hubs (the approximate content of each: a pair of lanes, hotel, club, and some important institution), to move between them by using a straightforward underground network. Meanwhile, with such hubs can be considered, and the cities themselves: the plot of Adam visited Detroit and Shanghai and Montreal (abstract plus Singapore and the Arctic), but they look different only at the level of verbal experiences. The visual monotony of the authors needed to maintain the atmosphere, and golden-brown scale, static gray skies and an abundance of neon signs very quickly penetrates.
Characters instantly bring to mind the name of a Japanese publisher and patron of the game - Square Enix. Because they are very often colorful: cautious boss in three-piece suit, paranoid hacker saydkik, and for dessert - a desperate woman pilot, in a strange way reminiscent of Samus from Metroid Other M.
Running on retractable blade
From the perspective of an old fan of the series may indeed seem like something individual and author of a new Deus Ex harder to find than a living place on the body of Adam Jensen. The gameplay is soon confirmed. As before, any practical problem is solved by an average of three ways: you can tie a desperate shambles, peacefully uboltat persons involved, or quietly sneak into the place of destination, opened a lattice of ventilation in the nearest toilet. In this game designers are trying not to put similar situations: if the police enter the morgue, the easiest way by stealth (the building crammed with security, but the main duty wears away tooth to Adam), then, say, in a luxury hotel Shanghai is easier not to show off and kill all the security guard - they little, and, in fact, not just the same as implemented in the game system of shelters.
Detours on the way to the goal of many, but more attracted to those where it is possible to use the full blade. Especially that the statement simply magical. Movement of Adam, from shoals, and the last cold smertoubiystva, honed to the absolute ringing.
Despite the fact that Eidos Sowtware - the most natural Spector fans (this is evident in every detail of Human Revolution ), it is clearly worth the huge effort to sustain the tempo of the original. Once, on a mission to the Chinese research center, the play breaks down almost to the level of a Crysis 2 : for fifteen minutes have come puzzles to solve linear form "lend a box to pull the lever and turn off the electrical protection." However, rather quickly becomes clear that laboratory building crammed to the eyeballs of all kinds of electronics, and begins a natural "Mission Impossible" with turrets, lasers, and snipers. At such times, forgive all the developers in the world, including monotonous layout of buildings.
This screenshot blatantly falsified. The first thing a hero in this situation - not coyly reloads the gun and frantically looking for an alarm sensor.
The most pleasant surprises is Human Revolution were found, oddly enough, in the scenario, which combines an amazing oriental flavor of some Metal Gear Solid and Western practicality and restraint in the dialogues and commercials. Path to Adam's search for truth strewn with intrigue not only criminal but also political, and the finale, when things are going in a single image, the player does not regret the hours spent for breaking other people's computers and reading e-mail, because every detail was useful! With great tenderness here wove references to the first part: for example, the National Army Separatist flashed on the news as the emerging force of the future unknown.
***
silly to talk about Human Revolution on the bare emotions. All that we see in it - perhaps a free remake of the original game, which means that fans of the universe, and so everything is clear. The rest we, without further explanation, immediately advise to buy the disc. After a dazzling future to feel with their hands to read more reviews of all sorts.
