Invisible War seemed very well in-line with Deus Ex 1 with regards to technology and continuity. That may be one of the few things they did right, though.
Human revolution is definetly more "blade runner" than Deus Ex, but I can live with that. They seem to have good artists and they should be able to use them and their ideas. Like, there's the Burton Batmans and there's the Nolan Batmans. They look almost nothing alike but are both respectable in their own ways.
Yeah i'm starting to see things that way too, Burton vs Nolan, a good comparison really.
Ultimately, i can look past it and accept it as long as HR manages to become a good Deus-Ex game, unlike Invisible War which was just unbelivably poopy and let us never speak of it again...
But i will remain sceptical till it can prove itself otherwise (and do so on the PC, no less, DX will allways be a PC game in my mind, and this one will have to feel like a good PC game to win me over), Eidos and Square though.. yeah well, i am sceptical.
