Tell me about Deus Ex | A retrospective review

Why is it referred to as one of the greatest games of all time? Well, it was groundbreaking for starters, but there’s more to it than that! And oh look, I made a little video just for this very occasion - do let me explain…

I’m always surprised that you don’t have at least 1000 subs. Your videos have great audio and editing and your scripts are well written and concise. Though, looking over at your sub count, it looks like you’re almost there! Keep up the great work!

I got to the end of the video, heard "I'm desperate to get to 1000 subs", then noticed the sub count was 999...I guess this is my destiny.

Thank you! I hope it was as good for you as it was for me!

[@CasualGamr]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate the support, it always encourages me to make more :)

Thank you for this video, this game is truly one of the all time classics! I enjoyed the new ones but felt that the gunplay was so clunky so i was almost forced to go stealth to save a headache.... plus.. more exp.

[@CasualGamr]

My pleasure and thanks for the feedback! I loved the (pretty staged) multi takedows in Human Revolution but at the end of the day, the choice mechanics were biased towards sneaking so it had limited replayability.

+1 subscribe from me for OG Deus Ex content! Still the best game after all these years!

[@CasualGamr]

Thanks John!! I appreciate the support - and being a fellow fan of Deus Ex 😄

Amazing retrospective! I never get tired of listening to peoples opinions about the deus ex franchise and what it means to the gaming world.
The quality you've put into this really feels more like a channel with at least 100k ;)
So thanks a lot and keep it going :)

[@CasualGamr]

Thank you so much! Who doesn't like opening their Comments tab and getting a message like that haha - really appreciate the support!

[@AntonAdelson]

That game drips!

Exceptionally gay turn of phrase my friend. You are a true ally to the queer collective

[@CasualGamr]

For sure, it helped define the action-adventure genre all in its own!

[@BNanaRamen]

The world needs more content like this ❤️😎
And also M3 Le Mans Classic content?

[@CasualGamr]

The world always needs more M3 videos, though I’m not quite sure which playlist would sit under in my channel 😄

[@BNanaRamen]

@@CasualGamr So tell me about the M3 | a current review.
Followed by lots of car noises
