It's the same way with Deus Ex, where you are led to believe you have limited upgrades, but if you are meticulous, slow, thorough (which most people are when playing these kinds of games) your discovery of secrets and side missions basically give you enough to upgrade almost across the board.

That's less satisfying I think, and goes to my main criticism of these kinds of games: when you're free to do anything, you essentially become OP and can do everything. Even the game's ultimate choice - at the end, with Alex, is just a binary choice that leads to one of two in-engine movies. When you get to the "Wizard of Oz" part of the ending, the different operators recap the things you did, or didn't do. It's weird, but it doesn't alter too much of the plot and you essentially hit all the same objectives. I'm not sure it really is "faux illusion" because you do lock out objectives, and change how the game is played, but it's not really all that dramatic.Įven killing January leads you to roughly the same plot with December as your main operator. And during the game, when you return to certain areas you can have different conversations. A few times, you do have the choice of saving people's lives. You can kill just about every NPC, for example. The choices you make do impact the in-game conversations and outcomes of objectives while you're playing the game. I'd recommend this game for anyone who thinks they would enjoy a Bioshock/DeusEx hybrid game. That is, other games might have broken triggers/quests/dialogues or just typical bugs pop up from that sort of player freedom - but here the game design is done robust enough that you can find some trick of getting into some locked off area and not worry about breaking something. I think the most standout aspect of this game is that you can 'juke' your way into rooms/areas early without breaking the game. You do eventually get enough neuromods to upgrade all the human upgrades, and if you explore all rooms/side quests you can get 50+ hours from this title. On normal difficulty I didn't have any problems with any enemy in the game, stealth bonus+weapon dmg+fully upgraded shotgun did decent work throughout. Combat is not the primary goal of this game, there are multiple ways of avoiding combat or killing enemies without engaging them yourself, though when necessary what combat is there is serviceable. It's a cross between Bioshock and Deus Ex, with enough originality that it stands out from the games it's inspired by. Completed this today, enjoyed it from start to finish.
