Just in case you’re not aware (maybe you are making a joke?) the series consists of six games: Deus Ex (2000), Deus Ex: Invisible War (2003), Deus Ex: Human Revolution (2011), Deus Ex: The Fall (2013), Deus Ex Go (2016) and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided (2016). The original from 2000 is one of the most beloved games in the genre.

Everyone wants another DX game except for the people writing the checks. https://wegotthiscovered.com/gaming/deus-mankind-divided-can... (skip to the bottom) https://www.vg247.com/2019/07/29/deus-ex-mankind-divided-seq...

I think it would take a much smaller game studio to properly do a real successor to Deus Ex.

I can imagine it actually being better with a smaller studio.

The people working on the new Baldur’s Gate. They’re a small studio. It wouldn’t work with EA or whoever.

Yeah, I guess jokes don't always work in this format on the Internet. If I remember correctly, Invisible War was so bad that the entire team was fired. I've played the original several times. It's a classic. I wouldn't regard any of the supposed sequels as sequels. I played IW once. It was hot garbage. I haven't tried HR and beyond, but from gameplay videos it doesn't look as though they've captured the spirit of the…

HR is worth a play. Not quite the same thing as the original, but good in its own right.

It's nothing like Invisible War either. I would consider Invisible War a bad sequel, while I would consider Human Revolution a spiritual succesor. Neither game is like the original but Human Revolution/Mankind Divided are great games in their own right (ignoring that Mankind Divided was cut short)
