Mind you, there will still be digressions, derailed trains of thought, and the overall poor memory of someone who has to look up his own phone number from time to time. Thus, unlike my Disco Elysium playthrough this is mostly unscripted, with some at-length discussion and only the occasional planned bit of monologuing.Īs for Deus Ex, it's chosen because of how well-known it is it's easier to discuss gameplay and story elements as they happen and lets me focus on word choice, pacing, and not making too big a fool of myself. It's long been a problem that I talk faster than I think, have trouble filling dead air, and constantly trip over my own tongue.

But mostly I'm trying to get better with off-the-cuff commentary, especially doing so in live gameplay. Well, I've gotten into streaming on Twitch for funsies (link in signature) and I always enjoy digging deep under the hood and trying to figure out how a game ticks. Stolls, you absolute dinosaur, we all know Deus Ex is Actually Jesus 2 - why the interest now? 'Reinstalling' might be a tired meme, but the safe money says some of most of you are thinking about it right now. It certainly has flaws, but stands apart from its peers in a lot of important ways, and was always much, much more than the sum of its parts.

Been in the mood to revisit some old and not-quite-as-old titles and see how they hold up, and why not kick things off with a legend of turn-of-the-century PC gaming? Deus Ex has a well-earned reputation for being eternally topical on top of its overall solid design. Hello and welcome, all! It's been quite a while since I've done a proper Let's Play thread.

The theme's already in your head, isn't it? Don't think about it, just ride the nostalgia.
