Cyberpunk is a science-fiction sub-genre dealing with the integration of society and technology in dystopian settings. Often referred to as “low-life and high tech,” Cyberpunk stories deal with outsiders (punks) who fight against the oppressors in society (usually mega corporations that control everything) via technological means (cyber). If the punks aren’t actively fighting against a megacorp, they’re still dealing with living in a world completely dependent on high technology.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution and its sequel Deus Ex: Mankind Divided was a great reboot of the series, but what do you think of the original Deus Ex?
It was a Game of the Year contender in 2000, but what about in 2024? Is it still worth playing? Or are the gameplay and graphics a bit too... dated.
If it's still worth playing, are there any mods to help make the game more tolerable for today's standards?
Thanks for bringing this up. I got a steam deck OLED and for some reason the OG Deus Ex was in my long-stagnant steam account. I think I bought it in college when I was playing around with windows partitions on Mac with boot camp. I guess now I can see about putting in a mod to modernize it a little and play it. I love playing older PC games that I never had access to in childhood.
