So after the heartbreaking news a few years ago that Deus Ex was "on Hold" so that Eidos Montreal could make a video game about Marvel's Avengers, it's finally here and WHY DID YOU DO THIS TO US!?!?!
Avengers gameplay is terrible: There isn't an original idea anywhere in this game and it does whatever mechanics it cribbed from other games worse. The "story" that everyone loved so much yet very few actually explained what they liked about it. I smell pity points. Marvel's Avengers' story is predictable, overly safe, and none of the Avengers are particularly likeable. Abu is a cool dude though.
All this games as a service garbage in light of how Deus Ex is all but cancelled has got me feeling so low that I went and made the Cursed Dewgartia Code Red to approximate the pain I felt in Drink form. Do not attempt to recreate it: No one else should have to feel that much pain.

You know what makes this even worse. Inside sources are saying that Crystal Dynamics was developing a single player avengers game with story and gameplay first. But when the board of directors at Square Enix say it they demanded that it was scraped and in order to still make release with the new game they canceled other games and pulled all their studios to work on this dumpster fire.
It feels like it was meant to be a single player game that they were forced to make a multiplayer!
I heard that there is already a better version of this game, it's called Ultimate Alliance.
yea ultimate alliance was the bees knees of of hero games, yea its not aged like fine wine, but you know what, i love finding the c-listers that i never heard of. it was cool to play as iorn man but WHOA this guy with a flaming skull for a head is soooooooo cool!!!! there was magic in it, i hated playing as some of them. but the ones i loved were cool, there was even bounus for having teams, like the avengers line up, the fantastic four, street level heros, there was passion in it, it was back when the only good movies were spidermans and OMG I CAN PLAY AS SPIDERMAN?!?!!?
I'm pretty sure Ultimate Alliance 3 is way better than it.

At least maybe the avengers took the hit of being micro transaction stuffed live service garbage and not Deus Ex. Like could you imagine if they dragged Deus Ex's name and legacy through mud and doo doo by turning it into something like the avengers?

Not even like a golden toilet,

@@alastor8091 the idea was the comparison between jewerly (the story of the deus ex HR and MD, which i liked) and toilet ( whatever the fuck this marvel shit was) but when you need to explain a joke you may aswell don't tell it at all
@@zaikolebolsh5724 The story in HR and MD was not even CLOSE to being that good. It was alright, but the main quest wasn't "fine jewelry". The world building, some of the side quests, the characters, sure, but the main story was b tier at best. Nobody's making videos discussing the themes, relevancy, intricacy, and quality of either of those games like they are about Metal Gear.
I get pissed of because I have friends that are defending this game and saying that it will get better with DLCs (they even spent money buying skins), and when I say it sucks they start to attack every game I like because they have no better argument.
sounds like they are not "friends" but posers. I had "friends" that would strangely defend crap games... I realized what they where doing was trolling people into buying garbage games. They kept doing it to people, convincing them to buy a game because "we are all buying it and going to play together, doing co op and multiplayer, it will be fun!" Then you buy it expecting them to buy it too, and they never do... and you KNOW they are making fun of you for it behind your back.
The last game they tried this on me was Anthem. I saw threw it and called em out and told em how garbage that game is. They would say too, "DLC's and expansions will make the game better. Stop being such a lame hater" I moved away and stopped hanging out with them. Before I moved, they tried so hard to convince me im a lame hater and I am wrong, and that htey will have tons of fun with the game. Week after I moved they all stopped playing.... but they where so ADAMANT that they would be playing this game years to come...

I beat MD a couple weeks ago and I haven't been that upset at a game's ending since... well I skipped Ass Effect 3, so maybe ever.
@Big Scoot Yeah, I uninstalled the game as soon as the credits finished rolling. I was pissed off that they had the gall to have a post-credit scene and then MORE FUCKING CREDITS after that.
@@ieatvirgins it turned me off ! It was just starting to pick up and then.......credits
I think of it as more of a good thing. It’s always good when a trashy, microtransaction-filled mess fails as it should. One day they’ll realize pumping out this garbage is not only going to hurt their PR, but their bottom line as well, and things like this hopefully speed up that process.
it killed dead space as a game franchise dead in the water thanks to its micro transactions
before square used to be know for quality but now everywhere we look we see hate after they made ff13 ff15 and kh3 they lost the good will they had avengers is just what made people vocal about it
Problem is, it doesnt really hurt their PR, we've assumed trash as the status quo of the industry and who cares if companies like EA are seen as the devil as long as millions keep buying their sports games every year? The industry is not going to stop producing this because, even if some fail, others are successful and the successful ones are more profitable.
We've been expecting this day for over a decade, so... you might wanna have a seat.
dont forget that left alive is also a squenix game. i mention this cuz this studio seems to be unaware of the fact that the only good games they made in the last few years are the games from their well known franchises. and the worst part about this is that they seem to make those games less. theyre sitting on a goldmine of franchises and do nothing with them.
for example. they own the "legacy of kain" franchise but they have claimed they wont do anything with it and will probably let it die
Wait, Blood: Masquerade is getting a battle royale?
Jesus, this year is getting worse everytime I blink.
@@MrNickPresley
That's not the only insulting thing about this, it's the fact that most of those who want Battle Royale already got their own preferences filled in the last half decade, so anything else they could add would probably be left unnoticed
Literally no one :
Bloodline devs : You what this game needs? A Battle Royal mode, surely everyone who liked the first single player RPG would love that!
The sad thing is that the actual single player RPG is shaping up to be a mess. Really they should focus all resources in to making that game at least decent.
A battleroyal of vamps doesn't sound inherently bad, but it could easily be implemented badly.
I've been pretty concerned about that for a while. It went from "oh I'm gonna need to grab that" to "I'll wait for the reviews and then maybe grab it a year or 2 later when the price drops" to "I'm not buying it".
I mean the facial animations for the female characters is insultingly bad. I don't know what the devs are focusing on but I don't understand their logic at all
This makes me glad Insomniac actually likes Spiderman and its lore
Marvel's Avengers is a monument to all the gaming industry's sins
Mankind Divided is a strange game that features only several blocks of a city to explore, but is so freakishly dense that I still found myself discovering new areas and side things in 2020 after all these years lol

@@oreox1000 And Plastic Man, Elongated Man, Elastigirl...

she is just a mish mash of mister fantastic and antman.
"Creative" and "Original" are two different words. Her powers a NOT original, but how she uses them can be creative and unique to her. The game did okay (better than the comics at least), but honestly it didn't really get me invested in her or her powers.
Ah young Justice reference! Dick Grayson: why isn't someone ever just whelmed?
Y'all remember when Spiderman was supposed to be an exclusive character for ps4 and he didn't come out day one? Also my friend and were playing this and he ended up getting stuck in the mission where you unlock black widow and the part where you played Kamala, he played as a giant black widow with Kamala's dialogue. This was since the game released. He still hasn't been able to make it past the mission even after all the updates. Needless to say the game was deleted by everyone in the squad and forgotten about.
I would expect so, considering the multiplayer is even worse than the rest of the game.
Abu (Kamala's dad) is as far as I can tell from this review, a true treasure.
Abu for United States Senate and then for President in like 20 years when we're ready for that.

Seeing how this game went down, I can't blame a Deus Ex fan for having a deep grudge against Marvel and Square Enix for this.
Squenix will just put blame on developer and axe few heads, sad but true.
They always pull out one of two cards.
"players don't want any more this type of games" or "Devs sucked"
Yeah I think it's very optimistic to expect that Squenix will learn anything good from this. They're never going to blame the concept because they want to keep good relations with Disney, so they'll blame the developers instead for the constraints put upon them.
Sad but true
The entire reason squre and enix merged was because square made a bad movie that lost a bunch of money so in a truly genious move they started to make another movie after the merge...
Yeah, they can never admit that the fault just might lie in their own bad decisions.
I'm kinda worried we might have another Viseral Games situation. It probably won't happen, but I've already been burned once before.
then the idiot in charge will get a raise for the fuck up. don't forget about that.
So the newest Deus Ex was cancelled for this trainwreck. Sounds like they took a page straight out of EA management's guide on how to be bad at your job, when they cancelled Dungeon Keeper 3 and shut down Bullfrog to make a new Happy Potter game. That move also was a financial and brand image disaster. There are so many people out there who work in decision making positions in the gaming industry that are completely disconnected from what their company actually does. An MBA from Harvard is nice, but it's not a substitute for having exactly zero knowledge of your product or audience.
“Happy Potter”, hee hee
Hopefully cyberpunk will bring good attention to the cyberpunk genre and square enix will realise what they had with the deus ex franchise.
If they finally fucking release it that is.
@@nothere1578 2077 /s

@@ZorgNothing i think it's gonna be good but probably won't live up to the insane hype

Honestly, I lost interest in it once I saw the trailer and plot synopsis. I was hoping it was going to have something to actually say about the current systems in place and dive into what makes a dystopian setting...you know, _dystopian,_ and tell a story that actually aligns with the punk ideology but it doesn't really look like it. Which is a shame, too, because I was genuinely pretty excited for it.
You looked like a vampire from the regency era that picked up rocker style, that just gave up on life and wants to go out in the worst way out.

Thank you, that sounds better than I thought. The DLC situation is regrettable, but if the core game is better than the average battle royale, I'll be happy.

Funny thing is, since Vampire the Masquerade is originally a TRPG, like Dungeons and Dragons, a multiplayer mode isn't that farfetched. A good co-op would be great. But a full-on battle royale? Could turn out humiliating for the IP if they make it a janky Fortnite with vampires.
Is it true that the game leads left the project?
@@paulinapaola I can see a battle royale working if it would be a completely different kind of battle royale other than an FPS. I can see something more slower paced. Of course, it probably will not end that way, but I wish there were deeper battle royale games than just shoot and survive. Just the idea of competing in a long term is cool.
Fun fact of the day: Travis Willingham, who voices Thor in this game and literally everything else, as a tattoo in Nordic runes that says “worthy” and I think that’s pretty cool
Travis is a cool dude.

I'm 2 minutes in and i gotta stop you right there. I don't know anybody that was expecting this game to be good. It was obvious this game was gonna be a shitty cash grab that was just trying to ride the hype wave after endgame. The fact that this game failed is no surprise to anybody with eyes.

@@CookiePieMonster Well you know about what happens to a fool and his money
What a shame *lip smack* it was a good game series.

Let's be honest, if they can't even bother do write good scripts or make original movies, why would they be bother trying to make a good game?
After all the strategy is just endless milking the intellectual properties they have and the fanboys will buy it anyways, just like happens with the movies.
The movies are fun to watch though. They're no cinematic masterpieces but they are good in their own right.

I just realized and that's analogy Drago is Deus ex and Apollo is Marvel's avengers marvel avengers is a cocky little son of a b**** that failed and Drago is the monster everyone wishes they could be
Fun fact: they cited the hitting of their western studios as due to ‘over spending’ by the western branch during a time the eastern branch of square was in record development hell and spending a crossed the board
That's what seems to happen western side spends too much and has nothing to show for years of work. While the eastern side is normally too damn fearful to lose money to try something new or untested. This is ironic with both because I've seen their games they can do something different and make money.
People didn't abandon comics because they got political. They abandoned them cause they were preachy, self-righteous, joyless & cynically moralizing while also not telling interesting stories
Some people who distanced themselves from Comicsgate chose the self-important "both sides are bad" viewpoint. I'm afraid Charlatan might've been one
I love how people point to the X-men when discussing this when the difference is the X-men was fun while also discussing issues unlike today
Precisely. Just because your doing something doesnt automatically make it good or bad, except modern comics expects blind praise right off the bat and think they can spit on customers time and time again and expect us to bail them out when they blame us for their losses and never take responsibility themselves.
Hell, civil war is most of those but it’s still good. You want to be political in comics without having any substance to it, be a politician
@MrGpt2010 you just insulted him not give him a actual well done argument
Just found your channel with this video. You covered a lot of the same points I have made with my friends about my sadness and fury about what they did to deus ex. Good video, great points... I laughed, I held back a tear. May this only show the overlords who hold controll over what we love, that you can't just shove money and a intellectual property onto something and have it print money. Here is hoping for a better future for deus ex. We fans haven't forgotten it.
It's almost as if no one should ever support squeenix ever, couldn't imagine why

My "risky-crazy" idea for an actual MARVEL "SUPERHEROES" RPG:
- A narrative driven "party based" TBS tactical RPG.
- Feature hundred of marvel superheroes & their unique story campaigns.
- Semi low budget but a more unique & beautifully artistic 2.5D detailed comic book art design (i. e. like HADES).
- Feature multi region worlds around earth & maybe galaxy.
- Feature full voice over on every dialogues & multi languages.
- Combat system is tactical TBS RPG with party of 6 characters & 4 in reserved roles. aside from skills, positioning also very important. For examples: Suikoden series, Chrono Cross, Divinity OS series, Shadowrun series, Trails series, SMT series, Persona series, Front Mission series, Wasteland series, etc.
- Camera is top down perspective while traveling around worlds.
- Feature helicarrier for traveling on certain open areas.
- Feature a main base & secret bases around the worlds.
- Feature a camp system via helicarrier.
- Feature multiple choices & endings for the narratives/stories.
- Feature unite attacks from every 3 linked characters.
Isn't that like their mobile game? Besides the full voice acting, which would be insane on a game with hundreds of unique characters.
@@Graknorke it's doesn't have movement and positioning in combat though. Its combat is just a JRPG from what I can tell from the promotional material.
@@Graknorke totally different in terms of tactical maneuvers, the scope of the worlds that much akin to CRPG games, & some other things like unique portraits & power attack scenes. In the most basic forms of depictions:
- Art design: HADES + MARVEL comics
- RPG & Combat: DOS2/Shadowrun/Wasteland/Torment/Front Mission (tacticality) + Trails/Fire Emblems/Persona (attack scenes) + Trails/Persona (RPG leveling)
- Dialogues & Scenes: HADES + Persona
- Narrative/RPG stories: CRPG games
- The worlds: multiple big world maps within overworld galaxy scale map
- Mini games: Helicarrier raid/defense?? (idk tbh LOL)
Most of these hacks these days wouldn't even know what to do with most of these characters. Hell even in X-Men Legends characters started to overlap a bit too much.
Man a Super Robot Wars esque experience TRPG with marvel characters would be so dope.

@@KamikazeChinaman they were so good in the past but after ff 10 it all started to go donwhill slowly and now nobody likes them anymore
@@valletas I feel it's the same with every game development company now. Somewhere around 2010 game development took a huge turn and started prioritizing profits over anything. Games used to be unique, with new IP's popping up left right and center all with their own creative ideas and different approaches to what makes a good video game. Nowadays we just served the same rehashed shit, over and over and over again. Every game just takes ideas from other games now and rips them off in such blatant ways. Barely any creativity and/or originality with video games these days which is a huge shame.
@@KamikazeChinaman, Your probably right, and I heard that KH3 sucked and had NO FF characters. It was more of a Pixar and Disney game. The characters were useless apart from Sora.
People have actually defended it, agreeing with the lazy cheap excuses and no FF characters. They agree with the statement that it's good enough to stand on it's own. But they underdeveloped their own characters, worst gameplay, less worlds, and people are giving them excuses.
They didn't have enough time, despite the 3rd game taking way too long to come out but still it was somehow rushed and worst than all of the previous games. Despite that people defend it saying it doesn't have to be better than KH1 and Kh2 or you can't expect it to be better than the previous games. KH3 took like 3 years to come out. The previous games still hold up. KH3 didn't add any Marvel or Star Wars characters either. IDK, why people are intent on giving them excuses, they did a half-cocked job, IDC, excuses cannot be excused.
@@RollingDodge KH3 was in development hell for over a decade, where did you get 3 years from lol
The ironic thing is: everyone I know who loves marvel, praises this game to heaven. I suppose love truly does blind.
I've been raving about this ever since the third Jensen game was cancelled, on every video even slightly related to the Deus Ex franchise or to rumors regarding this shitshow of a game.
I can't say I knew this was going to be a shitshow, but I was sure as hell that whatever could be conjured from the consumerist comic book scene wouldn't hold a bloody candle to an immersive sim, not to mention a Deus Ex game.

I recorded a full playthrough. Editing the video was so boring and painful I just trashed the whole video. Am I wrong or is this an Avengers game with the plot of an X-men comic?
X men comics aren't that bad (okay, mainline X men comics in the last 4 years or so have been dogshit, but not this awful)
And now, if you'll excuse me, I have some Deus Ex to play. Been meaning to get back to it anyway.
i wonder how much of those 150 million could go for a Chrono, Parasite EVE or Xenogears game or... well... Deus Ex
Also Sleeping Dogs...

I love Human Revolution and Mankind Divided, mans need to know the end of trilogy lol
Please tell me Troy baker gets to play his Banjo again ?
You've made it Squinix, finally you broke him, finally you've won. You've torn someone apart, someone that was always happy, that always smiled. Someone that didn't deserve to have his favorite game cancelled. Someone that was happy making youtube videos and reviews of games. Someone that loved with all his hearth Deus Ex and was waiting for the last game. Someone that knew how to remain strong. You've hurt him and take away his happiness
My poor Charlatan Wonder, what have they done? I hope you can go through this.
I like the visual of Kamala's powers in the comics. The off proportions of her limbs allows the artists more leway and makes her fights at least a little fun to look at visually. Seeing the attacks brought to the third dimension in this game just looks weird though.
To be honest, I am happy Deus Ex´s legacy wont be harmed anymore, Mankind Divided may have been a good game, but it wasn´t a good Deus Ex, that is the only red flag I need to believe the chances of ever getting a true entry of Deus Ex are pretty much null.
The most useful feature of this game was all the reviewers outing themselves as shills.
Lol ShillUp specifically hahahaha
"You can be a perky optimist while being aware of how the real world works, but not here."
Writers lately just have not been able to separate optimism from naivety.
Oooo yeah baby. Hello from 2022. I hope we play new Desu Ex soon, bro
Thinking only in terms of a marvel game, this is really sad. I remember playing Marvel Ultimate Alliance and having a blast, this could have been something like that. Also, it's sad that all the work that went into the game was for nothing at the end, since the game is not good.
In terms of a canceled deus ex, this is really the worst.
I got motion sickness from watching lets plays of this game due to how shakey the camera is. That says a lot about how shakey it is.
Is it me or does the video stutter in some areas? idk if it’s just my Wi-Fi connection or if the game is just that messy
The issue with bad decisions is bad execs who constantly think they know better. An exec went to school for finance will tell a game designer or film director writer etc who went to school for their craft whats good and what's bad when they probably don't even use the product they are selling.
Most big budget game execs don't have a background in creative works but instead are brought in from just general industry. I know that executive work isn't really much to do with the actual ground level work, but you'd think they should have some familiarity.
SquEnix: *sells Eidos for NFT money like a crack addict*
Your channel is the whole reason I got back into immersive sims, you reminded me how good Bioshock was so I replayed it, I got Prey 2017 and loved it, I bought System Shock 2 and loved it, YOU convinced me to buy Deus Ex, as well as human revolution and mankind divided... I love these games so much, and to know that the next big immersive sim was canceled for this... I feel your pain, maybe not to the same degree but I feel it. It’s the same feeling I felt when I found out Microsoft formed 343 to continue halo even though the story was already wrapped up, it’s the same feeling I got when Valve finally came back and accounted a damned card came as their returning title and I realized, for the first time, how shitty, dumb and greedy this industry is.
Dude. I was 'over' superheroes when Iron Man 1 released. FML
I remember waiting the whole movie for Black Sabbath to start playing.
The credits rolled and it started the guitar. Only to immediately cut to some other shit.
I don''t think that Eidos Montréal will be given a chance by Square Enix to develop more Deus Ex games after the commercial failure of Marvel's Avengers. "What a shame." as J.C. Denton would have said it.
The cat petting was more riveting to watch than any of the gameplay footage
I'm not trying to be mean, but there's a few times that you said "I'd be missed if I
..." and I think you mean to say "I'd be remiss if I...". Unless I'm just hearing you wrong.
17:06 "... the Ant Hill..."
Is that where 8-Bit Brody is holding the Ant Olympics?
29:37 Holy shit, I didn't notice his speedometer until you pointed it out! Do the devs have any idea what they're saying when they tell us Iron Man is going 32 times the speed of sound? Do they realize what that would do to, not just the suit, but his body?
This game legit just looked like Destiny without any guns, which, considering Destiny is and always has been a shooter, was probably the crux of the issue. Searching for higher tier loot means nothing if that loot doesnt have anything unique to it other than "increases x stat higher than previous gear". The power level grind of Destiny (Especially 2) has been the thing people have railed against Bungie for doing the most poorly for years now, that shouldnt be the basis of your video game.
At its worst, Destiny at least has unique weapons/weapon archetypes and fun perks that fit into even more fun builds, even in high end play. At its best, Marvel's Avengers is a diablo clone wearing somebody else's dirty socks.
At least Destiny has an interesting plot and setting
Exactly what I thought watching this. In destiny you don’t grind for loot because it has a higher number, you grind for it because it’s unique, fun to use, or the meta that season. Nobody grinded for Falling Guillotine because it had a higher number; they grinded for it because it was nuts and could melt half the raid bosses in the game
@@fort809 Guillotine is your friend boys.
Aztecross quote aside, you’re right. I didn’t enjoy the recent Warmind bunker season as it didn’t explain the mechanics particularly well IMO, but I wanted the Seventh Seraph weapons. I mean in the first game I played Crucible for Red Specter because AR with knife on it.
I honestly latched onto this game more than I ever did with Destiny.
@@kingfish3916 The new expansion was trash guy how can you think Bungie was the same as they were almost 20 years ago now.
man i lost faith in all AAA games right now
Theres another main point I wish superhero games did: first person view. Im not saying that third person is inherently bad but imagine how cool it would feel to fly around shooting things as Iron Man instead of always feeling out of body.
This is The video, thanks man
The more and more I hear of this game, the more I believe this game was originally going to be a custom character mmo style game with playing as the Avengers characters for just ionic missions.
So you are saying that this game is for Movie Bob?
Liked subscribbled and sent to my friends!
I love the angle of Deus Ex
as a chef, those sleeves stress me the hell out i kept thinking how many ways youk could have killed or maimed yourself in a kitchen. Also quite the bad game a canceled deus ex game out of 10
Yeah I really shoulda had em rolled up or something but I was blinded by THE PAIN.
@@CharlatanWonder I feel you brother. one day maybe the world WILL know your sacrifice.
@@CharlatanWonderi love the video though i disagree with the first point that people are suffering superhero fatigue.
people have simply excepted this is the end of good HOLLYWOOD superhero movies because most of dc superhero movies suk and marvel has revealed the enirity of phase 4 and other then a new doctor strange movie its all woke lazy mary sue crap from modern marvel from lady thor to ms marvel to captian marvel to wokeified black widow{as in her actor said her movie would be about smashing the patriarchy} etc etc.
my best examples of proof that its because of this rather then superhero fatiuge is this MY HERO ACADEMIA AND ONE PUNCH MAN.
both based on western esk superheros both still selling like gang busters both having people incrediple excited for new seasons and every new chapter of there mangas.
@@wilmagregg3131 wh-what?
@@sunwardo7714 i said i disagree with it being superhero fatiuge because people are still loving and mega excited for one punch man and my hero academia
During the loading screen they show brief animations of the characters and Black Widow blinked out of sync. Both eyes closed at the same time but opened and different speeds so she looked drunk. I saw that screen a LOT when I played and they never fixed it.
My fiance is a die hard Avengers fan. She was looking forward to this game, and even had it pre-ordered. Once we played the beta, even she passed on this trash.
Why are you locked in development?
At 29:40 ... Velocity isn't measured in Gs, that's acceleration. Unless this is some hyper specific (maybe aeronautical?) usage of the word. Otherwise the units don't even match up.
I just must be wrong, I can't imagine such a mistake in a master piece as wondrous as this game.
Great video by the way!
great video. That literally sums it up
P.S.: Hulk's ult is also gives him a healing factor -lastly I checked- that, fastly healing any damage he takes.
I feel this is just the beginning and it will end with the next ET game.
