Deus Ex Mankind Divided

Before Deus Ex went into prequel mode with Human Revolution and even the upcoming Mankind Divided, it was a series developed former id Software employee Warren Spector and Ion Storm. Spector has been in touch with the series till now and loved Deus Ex: Human Revolution. But in a recent Reddit AMA, he expressed some reservations about the trailer of Mankind Divided ((not the game per say).

“I thought the Mankind Divided trailer was pretty violence-o-rific, which bugged me a little. I mean, the DX game was never about killing stuff.

“Given how well DX:HR did at the whole choice and consequence idea I’m hoping – and have confidence – the actual game will be a little more in the playstyle matters mold. In trailers, you just have to give people the most action-packed stuff you can, I assume.

“I’ll definitely be playing Mankind Divided. Ask me then.”

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided was announced for the PS4, Xbox One and PC recently and takes place two years after Human Revolution. What did you think of the reveal trailer? Let us know in the comments.
