Deus Ex is buggy as Hell?

Johnny C:
His voice never rises above a monotone rumble, yeah.

Jackie Blue:
I kind of like JC's voice acting.  He reminds me of a private eye in a 50s film noir flick.

"Paris.  I'll always remember Paris.  The streets were filled with dead roses, reminders of her.  Yeah, her.  Never got her name.  The drugs helped, but when they wore off there she was again.  Like a ghost in the back of my mind.  Haunting me from before the grave.  I should have shot her when I had the chance.  Love makes people do stupid things."

I'm going to go play it some more now.

I'm kind of pissed I didn't bring along a candy bar to give to the hungry kid.  Inventory management is a major bitch when you pick the rocket launcher at the beginning.  But seriously, "You can have this little crossbow, a sniper rifle, or a FUCKING ROCKET LAUNCHER."  That's a no-brainer.

A painfully earnest monotone rumble.

Not only that, they fail to mention that there's a sniper milling around behind the statue with a 30.06 rifle and all sorts of guys in the first area have crossbows equipped.

Anyway, I also recently got the game through Steam simply because of the discussion about it in the other thread.  I'm enjoying myself.  Personally, I think the fact that JC Denton is completely and totally humorless is awesome.  He's either super-cop or a remorseless killing machine.  The only complaint I have is the nonsensical default control scheme.  I remember back when it was released how I had to change just about every single button in order to make it playable.  Zoom in with a scope = one of the bracket buttons while you're supposed to be driving yourself with WASD?  "right."

Jackie Blue:
Remapping "zoom" was one of the first things I did.

I'm in the third mission now.  The way combat is handled reminds me more of the first two Syphon Filter games than any FPS.  I really don't like FPS games and I'm actually glad that it's basically impossible to just run up to five guys and start blasting away without being utterly destroyed.

Unless they're all standing close together, in which case, ROCKET LAUNCHER.
