Comment on Now that Deus Ex has been cancelled, what other games scratch the Deus Ex itch?

As one person mentioned, EYE Divine Cybermancy. Not sure if it’s pre-2010, but it’s good. Iirc it was originally intended to be a Warhammer 40k game, but the devs couldn’t get the license. As such, Warhammer 40k fans in particular will probably enjoy it, even if all the Warhammer 40k specific stuff has been stripped out or reskinned.

A post-2010 game would be Cruelty Squad. Looks and sounds like shit, but the gameplay is fucking amazing and the crustiness makes sense in the context of the game’s world. It’s set in a “final-stage” capitalist/cryptobro hellscape where you work as a for-hire hitman. There are no good people left, morality is dead, and death is only temporary. Don’t worry about collateral, everyone’s evil in some way, so go gas a cruise ship to kill a mob boss and don’t feel bad about it. I know this is patient gamers, but it’s worth the full price. Trust me, sire.
