If you guys read my other post, I did say that I tried playing Deus Ex, and it wouldn't run right :(. I still haven't figured out the issue, but the subtitles lag behind, and my character moves at a crawl. Blarrrrrgh
On the bright side, I started playing No One Lives Forever, yaaay!! It's fantastic and fun so far (I love how tongue-in-cheek it is). My only problem is that I'm horrible at sneaking around and being stealthy; I'm used to just blasting my way through enemies. This game seems kind of impossible to play that way, as I always end up ambushed/dead. What's your play style for NOLF, guys?
PS: For those who've played NOLF, would you suggest crouching, walking, or taking small steps for maximum sneakiness? Also, is it necessary to cover up every body with the special Body Removing Powder?

In that case it's you might not like Deus Ex even if you got it to work. The game is a strictly humour-free zone - to its severe detriment, in my opinion.

Umm . . . In that case maybe the Thief series isn't for you, after all. (Its creators described the three games in the series not as first-person shooters, but as "first-person sneakers".)

How is this sad?

I wasn't even new at shooters, I just couldn't do anything with what they gave me. It was something like three headshots to kill a guard, and a ridiculously slow rate for accurate fire. Maybe it would have gone better if I had used a strategy guide to build JC better, but if I need a strategy guide to get through the first level of the game, after going through the tutorial, I don't know if I want to be playing it. A poor learning curve and early game isn't enough to completely write off a game, but it can really discourage me.
Reed:
The first level of Deus Ex unfortunately seems to turn a lot of people off to the game. It just takes patience, that's it. In terms of your skills it shouldn't matter much, but putting points into rifles or heavy weapons is clearly a bad idea.
