Surprised to see Deus Ex mentioned; I played the game first in the early 2000s and was entranced by the storyline, coming from shoot-em ups like Doom and Quake. I've played this game several times over the course of the last two decades, and while it hasn't aged very well, it remains one of my favorites. I can't recall any other game making me pause towards the end and considering the consequences of my actions.

> Surprised to see Deus Ex mentioned

I think it's in people's minds because A) "Deus Ex: Remastered" was announced this week [1] and B) many have remarked that the remaster low effort, and at least from its trailer, does not compare favorably to the many high quality community mods such as this one.
