Is this franchise dead now?
Is this franchise dead now?

yeah at least for another 10 years, when they will do a "soft reboot" before caving to fan demands and doing a real sequel while still trying to tie the dogshit soft reboot into continuity.
Evan Cook
It pretty much served its purpose, by warning us about the things to come.
Eli Rodriguez
nah i'm bringing it back
Adrian Evans
Well, maybe the flop of the Avengers combined with the all but certain success of 2077 will make them rethink their strategy.
Justin Anderson
It might be more likely to return now, since I'm assuming the Avengers game had its content update roadmap slashed like all the other failed live service games.
Jeremiah Young
Reminder that the 3rd game of the nu-dx saga got canned for the avengers trash-fire.
The irony is that it is selling a fuckload less than DXMD.
Isaiah Stewart
Probably.
Considering Mankind Divided "under performed" and Avengers completely shit the bed Squenix is going to be reeling for cash.
Jose Bennett
It'd the whole genre that's dead, user. Expect a fucking "revival" five years later. Or indies.
Aaron Ortiz
Most likely. They did drop the ball with Mankind Divided, I still can't believe that the game has an even worse ending than HR.
Gabriel Cox
Do you still believe CP2077 is going to have the detail of a Deus Ex game? With it's open world, GTA genre? Come on now.
Grayson Stewart
Publisher meddling, as is always the case.
Josiah Powell
Wasnt MD quite literally cut in half? I mean only one hub in a DE game....
Aaron Harris
He did not imply that at all. But
>cyberpunk game
>sells well
>SE: oh we had a cyberpunk game series, how about we make another one
Cooper Long
Worst part is the devs take all the blame while the executives who pulled the objectivley worng decisions which cost the company BILLIONS get a pat on the back and a "better luck next time".
Anthony Gutierrez
Hopefully SE sells their western studios
Michael Lewis
I don't think there'll ever be a modern game with as much depth as the original Deus Ex, everything now requires huge production effort. I'm sure CDPR will make an attempt but it's not possible, even R* can't do it.
Michael Diaz
you called?
Kevin Kelly
Yeah, they went woke.
Kayden Roberts
To who? Ubisoft? EA? No thanks.
Thomas Roberts
Dishonored and Prey were pretty good. If you want to put System shock and Deus Ex clones into the same basket.
Michael Foster
Yes Square Enix killed it for that "live service" Avengers game.
Nathan Price
I fucking hated the last two Deus Ex games. Their way of encouraging min-maxing via non-lethal play makes absolutely not a lick of sense and triggers my 'tism
Liam Kelly
>CDPR will make an attempt
They wouldn't and they couldn't. They've been visibly targeting normalfag audiences since TW2, and complexity is just not their thing. TW3 already was a cookie cutter action RPG with no gameplay freedom to speak of.
>even R* can't do it
All R* can do is waste money on a ridiculous amount of useless shit that they put in most bland games imaginable.
Landon Edwards
Playing this for the first time right now. Can't believe they forced the DLC in the director's cut. It absolutely killed all momentum the story had and this shit is so unfun to play through. What the fuck were they thinking with this shit?
William Phillips
The DC is also on an older version of the game if I'm not mistaken
Kevin Anderson
Correct, it introduced more bugs and had worse graphical effects. They also removed the piss filter due to plebs screeching
Carson Nelson
Depending on how successful cyberpunk is I think there is a good chance another one will come in the next 6 years. They might not be the same game but the interest in the genre might get square to look at it again, especially after how hard avengers bombed.
Jacob Reyes
the first one felt unfinished the second was pure sjw bullshit
Levi Brooks
just bought this, what am i in for? is it similar to the original one?
Noah Lopez
Hopefully yes and Eidos will stop shitting out Deus Ex fanfiction
Jackson Ross
Don't go in expecting the same quality as the original. Both are fun games though.
Aaron Wilson
>Deus Ex Died
>For capeshit
>The franchise whose first game is widely considered the best game of all time died for a souless, DOA Marvel capeshit grinding-game so banal not even the normies like it
Caleb Richardson
>Hopefully yes and Eidos will stop shitting out Deus Ex fanfiction
When will Deus Ex fans catch a break. Surely some autist out there has the talent to make a good sequel.
Camden Phillips
Why are you posting a pic of my favorite philosopher
Jackson Allen
p..pppplease square i..i cant take anymore. I kneel.
Joshua Cox
Actually, there already is. Check out Frozen Hell, it's canon and the best piece of Deus ex media since the original
Dominic Russell
It died because SE pushed multiplayer(???) and made season passes etc. It was literally half of a game and everyone knew it, so nobody bought it.
And SE had ridiculously high sales expectations.
Anthony Ortiz
user please
Cooper Hernandez
We could've got another tomb raider or deus ex but instead got worthless cape shit. Capeshit is for the lowest common denominator comics don't sell worth shit the only thing keeping the dog and pony show going is churning out awful movies for stupid normies to get dragged to by their idiot friend or boy friend.
Easton Campbell
Square Enix took two of my all time favorite franchises (DX and Tomb Raider) and completely ran them into the ground. I would honestly prefer if they gave up and found a buyer for the IPs.
