DXN - Deus Ex: Nihilum

Mod review may contain spoilers

A really good mod coming from such a small team.

The Deus Ex-like story was quite nice, with all of them conspiracies and Wesley learning about the truth.
The story was easy to follow, there weren't too many hard points that could've been hard to understand.

The music was mostly very atmospheric, with most of the tracks being very suitable and atmospheric and a few being somewhat forgettable. I specifically loved the track placed in the map with Mad's first mission in Hong Kong, that one had some really nice spots.

The voice acting - well, there's mostly nothing critical to say about them, but Mad Ingram's voice does sound somewhat non-fitting for an agent grown in a pod - too gentle and soft, maybe. In some way I LOVED Mad's voice, though.
The other VAing was very good and sounded quite professional. Nice fem. VA's! The minor roles weren't bad either.
The only flaw about the voices was that some of them were too quiet - it was hard to hear them, especially in cutscenes where there's dramatic music in the background too.

While I'm not that much of a weapons freak in games, there could've been a few more weapons anyways, or more situations where you could've used them. The railgun didn't really go into such a big use, I mainly carried it around and shot few bots and cameras with it. Also, you get the light machine gun so late in the game that you mainly use it for the really tough mercenaries that XVA has.

And also about the amount of lockpicks in the game - way too much, especially if you have your lockpick skill leveled up to trained in the beginning of the game. Just after a couple of hours, you tend to have quite enough of them to get through any doors, and you get a lot more of them as you go.

The amount of original Deus Ex lines in the game was strangely high - it didn't really matter much, but I wonder why there couldn't have been more new voices.

But mostly, the mod's very enjoyable with an epic atmosphere. It's just too bad that it felt so short.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution

Game review

Wow.
Absolutely amazing game. This was MUCH more than I expected it to be. It drags you into the game nearly as strongly as Deus Ex. There are a few things though that aren't perfect, but a wonderful game you have developed, Eidos Montreal... I hope you'll make Deus Ex 4.
Man! I'm already playing my 2nd playthrough of the game non-lethal and soon after that I'll play it again with superlethal!
An incredibly badass game!

Really amazing mod, has great atmosphere, music, mapping, plot...
Only thing that would make this mod even more awesome is voice acting :)!
Maybe some people could sometimes make voice acting for 2027, eh?
