Let's Play Deus Ex: Happy Birthday, JC Denton!
Deus Ex is celebrating its 20th anniversary. Time flies. The PC classic influenced many all those years ago, so we wanted to play through the intro to Deus Ex and relive all those memories. Well, Matthew's memories. Colm's never played it. Until today!

While he loved Deus Ex: Human Revolution and quite enjoyed Deus Ex: Mankind Divided, the original Deus Ex just sort of passed Colm by. So, let's see how the game holds up after all these years. We did tighten the screws a little by installing a few mods, like Deus Ex New Vision (https://www.moddb.com/mods/new-vision) and Deus Exe (https://kentie.net/article/dxguide/), but apart from that, this is straight-up Deus Ex PC gameplay.
Ion Storm and Eidos Montreal's first-person RPG changed the way many looked at games. As JC Denton, you could approach a situation in many different ways, which blew the minds of most players at the time. If you want to more about the game, you should check out the oral history of Deus Ex over on Rock Paper Shotgun: The Website: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2020/06/22/deus-ex-at-20-the-oral-history-of-a-pivotal-pc-game/
We can hardly call this a Deus Ex review, but Matthew will no doubt be able to speak on his experience with the game when he first played it all those years ago. Strap in and get nostalgic with RPS!
