Deus Ex: Mankind Divided

Post by woodchip »

Well the critics seem to rave over this game (I played the first iteration and loved it) but then I read some player reviews and the mention microtransactions are part of it. Don't know about you but pay to win in a single player game is a big no no for me:

I think this might be the game that finally gets me to upgrade my video card.

I've played and enjoyed all of the Deus Ex games (played through Human Revolution three times). Haven't purchase this one yet, but I will eventually. Wouldn't be surprised if they eventually release a version with the DLC included.

I liked the last Deus Ex game, so I might wait for a while until the price drops or Steam puts it on sale.
