Hugh Darrow.

Truth prevails.

Didn't play it, but what's with the ending on the right?

Sarif because ADDDDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM

Nope, I'm a rebel, fuck da police. Ending 4

Darrow because I was " I want this fucking zombie level to end " so I skipped the other two.
I then reloaded and picked the suicide.

red
green
blue

no better than ME3

>>135938135
Bitch please

I joined with the reapers.
Oh, wait.

Sarif because I believe in progress.

>>135938174

He's right, though. It just hurt less because you hadn't played 3 whole games being promised your choices mattered. DEHR is awesome, but the ending was a poorly executed cop-out. DE original at least made an end boss fight that could be won using any play stayle.

Darrow, because I thought people would just get open source augmentations instead of saying "Technology is bad, mmkay?"

implying you didn't save in the room and do all 4 endings.

Sarif. I would have chose darrow if it wasn't for the Illuminati

>>135938385
>>135938385
>>135938385
>>135938385
I meant Taggart, sorry

>>135938304
I dislike DX:HR ending too, but it`s still better than ME3 RGB, beacuse ME3 - TEH END OF EPIC TRILOGY. DX:HR is prequel.

>>135938308
I didn't I picked Sarifs ending, but I checked the others on youtube 1 minute later.

>>135937980
any video where I can see that?

Self destruction

Old men playing at running the world. I'm letting the dumb ignorant masses of the world make the decision. Because they're the only people who should make it.

>>135938592
See what?

Taggart. Only a fool or edgy teenagers would let something like human augmentation go unregulated.

It was pretty bad. But the choices, while rushed, were actually interesting and different. Not to mention that, after release, they openly admitted that the ending choices were due to limitations in time and resources, instead of trying to defend it like Bioware.

Also, I picked BLOW IT ALL UP.
I ain't working for anyone's agenda.

Sarif. Fuck Faggart and Darrow.

>>135938669
More like you were given a choice to change the world and pussied out like a bitch because you couldn't handle the responsibility.

>>135938829
Taggart is just a puppet of the Illuminati, Darrow will get augments regulated too.
>>135938676
Sarif sayin ADDAAAAM

>>135938829
Because our history shows that government bureaus are experts at regulating technology, right?

Like Darrow ending, but he is fucking moron. Pick the Sarif button.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OdHLJ92aSto

>>135938979
Change what? I don't give a fuck about augs man.

>>135938876

DR. STEEL.

>>135938987
Yes, it does. Like I said, you'd have to be an edgy teenager not to see that.

>>135938985
Darrow wanted that shit gone for good.

What's canon? And are there any events in the game that reference canon points in the future of the series?

All of them, since you can save in that room, and all of the choices are meaningless.

>>135939092
I am having shivers just hearing the music god damnit

Darrow's ending is the only right choice:
- The entire of humanity is going to turn it's back on technology because it's just too fucking convenient
- People are going to realise that it's a bad idea for everyone in the world to get the same chipset (for the same reason a little genetic diversity is a good thing)...
- ...therefore the government will regulate monopolies on this sort of tech very tightly and people will use open source where possible
- The illuminati will be ousted, a far bigger issue overall

>>135938979

>Only option where you die
>Pussied out

Yeah, defending your principles sure is pussying out. With Sarif or Taggart you're just lying to everyone, and with Darrow you're pretty much telling everyone that "Hey, if you want to prove a point, the best thing you can do is murder a whole bunch of people."

Hey /v/, I'm getting a computer to replace the toaster I'm forced to game on soon, so I'll be able to run new vidya well. Should I get this game?

Blew up Panchea.

>>135938135

Are you kidding me? Those endings were drastically different, the method of getting the endings (pressing a button) was retarded though.

>>135939389
> Should I get this game?
Yes.

>>135939223
Bob Page at the end

>>135939181
I find your point hard to be convincing, seeing as how your only argument is "anyone who didn't pick what I picked is an edgy teenager". Bureaucracy spells doom for progress.

Nothing.
I stopped playing when Eidos got this far with this bullshit.

>>135939308
You are fucking tripfag, but...
>I now that feel
I can not listen this music again. It hurts.

Just throwing this out there but: Why does everyone think the illuminati are evil?

Think of how much more advanced they are in 2027 than we will be in 15 years time. Maybe the reason they're so advanced is because they actually have intelligent people running the show instead of just leaving everything to the droning masses and short sighted special interest groups.

>>135939468
>Bureaucracy spells doom for progress.
Yes, you're so right. Deregulation was so good for the economy wasn't it? It's not like regulation could have prevented the recession.

Like I said, edgy teenager. Come back when you understand how the world works, kiddo.

>>135939583
>Maybe the reason they're so advanced is because they actually have intelligent people running the show instead of just leaving everything to the droning masses and short sighted special interest groups.
That's exactly what Adam says in the ending also.

>>135939223

Hard to say. It seems most likely that Sarif's ending WASN'T cannon, considering that in the world of Deus Ex, even regular augs are a rarity. I would probably say Taggart - the technology continued and advanced, but something happened that made the average person unable or unwilling to get augmentations.

>>135938987
After the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki that technology has never been used, only tested.

All 3 of them. But the true ending of blowing up the facility seemed to be the best.

>go through DE:HR
>suddenly, Deus Ex threads errywhere

Sarif end was good, but I'd bet the suicide end is canon (depending on what they want to do with Jensen).

>>135939583
That's what the Illuminati would say. Controlling others isn't something that you should do. No matter how powerful you may be.

Go to bed Illuminati.

Killing yourself is the only wrong ending.

>>135939597
You really think the way banks were unregulated in 2008 has anything to do with how a technology is disseminated? What you're saying is that you're in favour of governments controlling technological advancement, and technology is never controlled.

>>135939776
>After the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
And that sounds OK to you?

Sadly there's not a best choice. Darrow is a murdering asshole who wants the world to throw away years of technology, Sarif is good but augs just can't be NOT regulated, it's insane. Taggart would be the best choice, but lol nope Illuminati.
And suicide is shit because you kill lots of innocents, and yourself, for nothing

>>135939597

You sound like the kid here, kid.

>>135939995
>You really think the way banks were unregulated in 2008 has anything to do with how a technology is disseminated?
You're missing the point. Regulation is good.

>What you're saying is that you're in favour of governments controlling technological advancement
When technological advancement includes the amount of human experimentation as Deus Ex implies, then yes, I am. Society needs laws and regulations. Only edgy teenagers think otherwise.

>>135939662
In 2052, mech augs have fallen drastically in popularity; people who have them are basically seen as second class at that point. Not to mention they're a lot more discreet by then.

http://deusex.wikia.com/wiki/Mechanical_augmentation

Sarif.

He's right, we as a species do need to progress and augmentation is the way to do it.

Darrow, despite the "truth prevails" bullshit, is involved in a shadowy organization that does everything it can to rule the world. Fuck the Illuminati.

Blow it up for my first run but for my pacifist run I'm going to pick the truth since it doesn't involve killing everyone

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-MrFj9sX10w

>>135940186
>You're missing the point. Regulation is good.
Slippery slope. Some regulation is good, too much regulation is bad, damaging and expensive. The Soviet Union was completely regulated, and it fell apart while free enterprise prospered.

As soon as augs start being regulated, governments will spend billions of dollars to control and invade privacy of the people to make sure noone is using illegal augs. Taxes will be put in place, increasing the price of augs so only the richest have access to it. Underground aug markets will grow in size, along with the militias to protect such markets, spelling a new source of revenue for organized crime. The people will walk between Big Brother and crime lords. If you want an example, imagine the drug war in the US or third world country, multiply it by 100, since augs have a direct impact on human lives.

Regulation will effectively kill more people than any corporation would. Your only point is that I'm an edgy teenager.

>>135940915
>Taxes will be put in place, increasing the price of augs so only the richest have access to it

I doubt that would ever happen. You don't see the government taxing artificial hearts to keep them away from patients who need them. There would be no reason to do that with normal augs. Only military augs would be banned because you don't want everyone walking around with spikes in their arms and a fold away minigun on their back.

Destroyed Panchaea.

Jensen was a man on a mission and as much as he learned about the Illuminati and other shit, he only went to Panchaea to stop Darrow from killing billions(?) of people.

I'd think he'd have the presence of mind to realize he's not important enough to make a decision that would directly alter the course of history. Instead let the people make the decisions for themselves.

After Missing Link I see no difference between Sarif`s uncontrolled progress and terror controlled by Illuminati.

Sarif 'cause robo limbs are sooper kool.

>people compare DE:HR endings to ME3.
>come in this thread and see civil discussion on how the endings affected the Deus Ex universe
While they are similar in the sense that you just picked them at the end of the game DE:HR had real consequences, even if you didn't get to play through them.

i never finished the missing link...

what happens?

>canadians in charge of ending

Teggart, because the other two choices are for hippies and Amerifags.

I picked the "tell everyone the whole truth" thing.

If humanity wants to go and be all THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE TECHNOLOGY because of that, they're welcome to it. I will become a god by keeping my hi-tech weaponry and augments.

>>135941325
I recommend you to play TML. One of the really good DLC.

After Serial Experiments Lain I'm terrified of the future.

So Darrow.

>>135941508

I played a bit of it, but I honestly got bored... why would they release a DLC where they take away all your augs? That annoyed me so much.

I had finished the side quest for the rocket launcher, I have no idea how deep that is.

>>135941090
Maybe not the essential ones, but the "helpful ones", like the social aug that Chinese lady borrowed money to pay for, will be taxed. The money to pay for all those Augmentation Inspectors has to come from somewhere. What's the alternative, to take that money from non-augmented people? The only hope in the government ending is that it is regulated as little as possible.

>>135941359
>What if we never need to feel weak or morally conflicted again?

Man, the endotron 3000 was shit, but the writing and the music was glorious.

>>135941696
>What's the alternative, to take that money from non-augmented people?
Why not? I pay for social security and it's not going to be there by the time I'm old enough for it.

Not that anon you're replying to, by the way.

I didn't mind the ending all that much. The delivery is shit, but honestly I could listen to ADAAAMMMMMMs VA for hours.

The worst part of the ending is that they had Darrow, Saffir and Taggart all in Panchea.

Why didn't they just make it that you hear all three out, then decide which one you want to go with through dialogue, then have to fight to the end room to send the message or whatever?

Suicide motherfucker.

>>135942004
I thought that was going to happen in my first playthrough. It seem logical that would be their approach, but nope, just buttons.

Why did Darrow even build Panchaea if he was just going to kill everyone there and let it get destroyed?

All of them, because it didn't mean anything.

Someone explain to me what the fuck that last boss was

>>135942180
>Why did Darrow even build Panchaea
Because...uh... <mumble mumble> global warming!
Seriously tho if you played human revolution for the story you're doing it wrong.

why were the character models and animations in this game so bad? everyone looked so hideous and made out of clay. i pretty much memorized every possible animation during dialogue too. and no one hardly ever made eye cantact. this really annoyed the shit out of me.

decent game otherwise.

>>135942196

4 burrons

>>135942274
>>135942274

i expected better of square enix, so much shitty motion cap stuff

almost on par with bethesda

>>135942274
The animation during the persuasion scenes was pretty good, but yeah I think Adam folds his arms in the exact same way at least once in every conversation.

Destroy Panchea, because Humanity has to choose its own future without the guidelines of lies, propaganda or punch-to-the-gut truth (the masses are stupid and you know it, telling them a horrible truth that is best kept hidden is just like lying to them in my eyes)

>>135942262

>>135942262
>Seriously tho if you played human revolution for the story you're doing it wrong.

It was like one of the big selling points of the game. And the story was really good for the start of the game where you were in Detroit.

>>135942196
AI basically

>>135942262

The global warming this was a cover. It's real purpose was the Hyron Project.

>>135942262
Well I enjoyed the story of DXHR it's just that part doesn't make sense. It's not the only game with huge parts of the plot that don't really make sense.

>>135941879
Social security is an awful government scheme, and you said yourself why it shouldn't be used as an example of good regulation. Augment regulation will be ridiculously expensive, that money would be better off used in healthcare, education or crime fighting. Using that money to pay for regulation will only make it so outlaws profit.

>>135942274
>and no one hardly ever made eye cantact.

That annoys the fuck out of me in Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines. Everyone's eyes drift off to the side slowly while they're talking. It's like they're all autistic and can't make eye contact.

>>135942391

i agree. during persuasion scenes they looked really good. they actually looked like someone who knew what they were doing made them.

I saved before i selected a button, then did all 4 one after the other.

In reality the kill everyone choice is the only one that fits into the original Deus Ex story.

Sarif's ending was the best choice.

>>135942274
The animations in The Missing Link (at least for the beginning interigation scene) were outstandingly bad.

>>135942359
>i expected better of square enix
It`s not Square Enix, DX:HR is the first game of Eidos Montreal.
They began to develop in 2007, before SE bought Eidos.

For those saying it's exactly like ME3's ending: To an extent, yes, but the narration CHANGES based on how you played Adam in the game. Either he speaks optimistically or cynically.

>>135942763

In real life it would be more complicated, but...

I like music and writing, but I want know what happened with Malik, Pritchard, Eye-Patched Mexican, Haas and other characters.
They should be used slides like in DAO or Fallout.

>>135939389

Yes, it's one of the more excellent titles of recent years.

>>135943028

Wow it's fucking nothing.

It was still a shitty ending.

To it's credit, it was just an underwhelming an ending. All I felt was "Wow, that's it", which I guess makes it better than ME3's ending, because I felt a whole lot more shit after that.

>>135943028
>mfw holy fuck it actually does
>mfw there's three different versions of each ending

>>135943410
I didn't even know that but it makes sense

>>135940046
It's bad that people kill each other but the use of the bombs never led to a more bloodshed than we were already committing. Look up the firebombing of Tokyo, nukes are small time.

>>135943028

>>135943196

Zeke dies. He attacks you when you come after his brother. Y'know Taggart's assistant?

>>135943196

Well in my game.

Eye patched mexican (zeke sanders) got his head shot off by me in my game when i returned to detroit.

Malik is dead, blown up in her plane going back to Hengsha

Pritchard? dunno, doing some computer stuff most likely.

As for Haas i offered him a job so he's ok i guess.

>>135940046
That was the best time to use a nuke. No one else had one, and it let us know how horribly destructive they are.

It was horrible, but necessary in the grand scheme of things.

>>135943902
>he let Malik die

>>135943559

Why did Pritchard have an arch made of screens in his office?

I actually missed Pritchard's sidequest. What is his sidequest about exactly?

>Controlling others isn't something that you should do. No matter how powerful you may be.

That's so fucking stupid. Firstly the illuminati isn't some fascist dictatorship, they don't control people with an onslaught of crushing violence, they just nudge things here and there. Secondly governments control people all the fucking time: you pay your taxes or you go to jail and if you resist arrest they'll use escalating force until you're dead. Conscription. Jury service. Law. Order.

Societies don't function without some level of control. The difference is that the illuminati seem to know what they're doing, they're working for something greater than themselves. I'll take that over the tyranny of the majority any day.
