Deus Ex (Revision): Killing Lebedev (NPC reactions)

(Sorry about there not being any transition effects to make the video smooth, the video editor I used didn't have that feature for some reason.)
I noticed no one posted a video of what happens if you kill Lebedev (probably because no one wants to). Here's reactions from Anna, Gunther and Manderley.
Game Version is Deus Ex Revision; the layout of the maps are different but the dialogues are all the same as Original/Vanilla.

[@bobpage6597]

"Activated......what?" The moment JC Denton changed allegiance.
"Can they really kill him, with the push of a button?"
"Yes - and you too. So take these orders seriously."
Personally I can't imagine how an individual would feel to learn that. You wouldn't feel whole - you would instantly recognise you are just a tool for someone else's ambition - with an inbuilt fail safe to discard you the moment you become too big a problem. If Manderley wanted to try and keep JC around, he should have kept his lips shut about Paul's kill switch - I guess it doesn't really matter. JC was going to find out anyway, given Jock takes you to Paul's apartment first before going to HK.

[@windtalker4191]

Yeah, they also could have just captured Paul for questioning to keep JC's loyalty. It's not like he was bombing locations (Though Paul probably did get some UNATCO soldiers killed by helping the "enemy")

[@chavzone]

@@windtalker4191 I would imagine they already tried and failed to capture him, or thought he would be too big a liability to allow to be free for any more time.

[@dirdib69]

It would have been cool if there had been a "stay with the bad guys" path

[@AlexOtten44]

That was going to happen, but it was cancelled during development.

[@MatiasQuintanaV]

@@AlexOtten44 I imagine that path as very uneventful, tho

[@ragingjaguarknight86]

@@MatiasQuintanaV maybe, maybe not since you would have to take out Tracer in Hong Kong, the Everett and the illuminati in Paris and Gary and the X-51 scientists at the base. Plus maybe secure the ocean lab maybe too and then secure area 51 from a final attack from the remaining forces at the end of the game. Bottom line is that it would be like the standard game but with the enemies changed.

[@alexkrycek3359]

Also, who are the real bad guys?

[@SaturnineXTS]

@@ragingjaguarknight86 I suppose you'd have to kill Paul too if he survives the hotel, just like you get a second encounter with Simons if he survives the Ocean Lab. As for endings, I can imagine three: do whatever Page tells you and become his and Simons' right hand man or kill Page and Simons and take over MJ12. Maybe the final battle with Paul would be in the Aquinas Hub to prevent him from merging with Helios (the Helios ending is off the table, since he doesn't want you, knowing you're evil).
Now that I think about it, a path like this feels totally awesome.

[@dimbrightman]

I know this was the set up to the inevitable betrayal but UNATCO could’ve been a bit more subtle towards JC. Lebedev and Paul were dropping truth bombs before this scene and immediately after Anna tells you to ignore policy, Gunther wants to hunt Paul down without hesitation and Manderley says higher ups are impressed as well as straight up telling you ‘Be a good boy or we’ll turn you off!’

[@kuklama0706]

"Actively work against your brother's allies" like what the hell did they expect.

[@Ashalmawia]

I like the idea that they're trying to create super agents, but no matter how advanced the tech gets, they can't avoid the problem that the agents are still real people with independent thoughts.

What is The Music that plays on 0:29 During the Conversation with Gunther

[@xXkatchillaXx]

Don't know, it sounds similar to the NY conversation music the second time you go.

[@WestSydneyFootball]

It's a piece from the soundtrack and called "Lebedev's Airfield".

[@Chronoteeth]

what are those gun mods?

[@sumyunggai6500]

Just a scope mod on a silenced pistol; it's part of the Revision mod

[@CsyeCokTheSolly]

HDTP models that come with Revision.
