    If you're a gamer and haven't played it, PLAY IT!
    To date, it's my favorite game of all time: it's in my Top 5. Despite its age (with outdated graphics and mechanics), I always recommend to friends to buy it. It's a gem in anyone's collection. Outdated graphics mean nothing to me, so long as I enjoy the game I couldn't care less. Just because a game looks dated doesn't mean it's not worth playing... I always keep in mind that when a game released, it was shiny and cutting edge in its generation.
    For me there are two things that decide if I play a game to the end: FIRST, is Story; SECOND, is Gameplay; and these are interchangeable. A game can have great gameplay but a crappy/mediocre story. As for graphics, I don't think I've ever dropped a game just because it had bad/outdated graphics. Deus Ex from 2000 is worth playing... it just winds me up when people pass over old games just because they don't look shiny and new anymore: you miss out on some of the greatest games ever made.

    • @NthReview
      @NthReview  11 місяців тому

      Eh, Revision also changes a lot of the levels by adding unnecessary additions that ruin the flow of the game. It is very possible to get patches for the game to make it playable on modern machines that don’t alter the actual game, so I would recommend you do that instead.

    It’s worth installing an overhaul mod for it - one that keeps the art direction but just adds some quality of life features.
    If you’re new to older games and can get past the way it looks, you’ll quickly understand why it’s regarded as one of the best games of all time. It’s a true globe-trotting, near-future detective story, and it’s honestly ridiculous in the scope of its ambition. Just when you think you’re near the end - the game will keep going and going.

      Sadly to say I never got to beat this. I played the PS2 port in the early 2000's and remembered I loved it but didn't remember much of the story from when I was a kid. Only after playing again did I realize how smart the writing was. Even the scenarios in the game are relevant today with talk of vaccines for the grey death among other topics. Absolutely every bit of this went over my head as a kid but playing as an adult makes it awesome because I understand all of the geo political lingo these days.
