I have been replaying Adam Jensen diology (that was supposed to be a trilogy) and it pains me how much we have lost.

Even by the modern standards the game series writing is beyond exceptional. There are quite a few questionable decisions that I cannot get over (how they pretty much forgot about Malik in Mankind Divided is absolutely ridiculous), but I always appreciate how thought provoking this series is. And I have a feeling that Warren Spector have seen what the world is going to be. We haven’t got to the point of augmentation tech being so widespread, but we already are seeing so many problems in our society that quickly dwelves into a dystopial pit. And when we will get this tech… I can imagine it will be even more difficult to understand who are we going to become as a society while we already are so divided. You don’t even need an Aug Incident for this.

Either way, such a brilliant writing is something that I seem to be craving more and more as I get older. And there’s so little games that can offer it.

I gotta say that I haven’t fully played the original games, I’m not sure if I will be able to get over their age. But for the sake of the story I think I should give them a chance.

I don’t know if we will ever get a new DX story, let alone a good one.

Just wanted to get it out of the system. It saddens me there’s no one in my circle that appreciates DX.
