    The Icarus analogy goes a bit deeper than that, kind of comparing the people who gave him his augmentations to Daedalus, who made Icarus’s wax wings, and whether or not it was their right to change the gods’ designs. Can’t wait for a playthrough if you decide to do it, one of the OG cyberpunk/cybernoir games.

      the Icarus analogy in this game was made by people who suffered brain damage in high school world lit 101😢its really some of the most embarrassing and insulting (and metaphorically obtuse) bits of writing ive seen in games

      i think its a dream, he lost his arms.. and was about to die, but they saved his life and gave him augmented arms..
      he was just about to fly to heaven but was brought back.. u can see the wings burn off and it looks like he has no arms while he is falling

    Fun fact these games are actually a prequal to the original game released back in 2000. Even though the first game is set decades after the two games you watched in this video the first game has a much more retro 1990s/2000s futuristic feel so a whole different look and feel in it's tone, music and art direction not to mention alot of Matrix vibes inspired by stuff like Grant Morrisons The Invisibles comics. While the prequals go for a more modern day renaissance look and feel and a much warmer tone with alot of orange lights and colours. The original game had a colder feel both in it's UI and world something I noticed with alot of games like the X-COM DLC and Mass Effect of course how the first game was more blue in tone and the sequels more Orange.

      Yeah I wonder why the deus prequels, human revolution and mankind, took a couple of decades before the original. It should have started in the late 2030s to close the gap to close the gap much earilier. If the next game comes out, and it takes place, lets say, in 2030, that is a 22 year gap between deus ex 1. Its insane.

      @@hackerman5207 depth in this context doesn't just apply to the whole conspiracy theory, illuminati, etc side of the story. Even if one wasn't into that stuff, the franchise still offers an interesting exploration into the ethics of certain areas of technological advancement, and how far can we push certain frontiers and still be "human". A debate on the ethics of human augmentation is literally part of the gameplay of Deus Ex Human Revolution. Also, the setup and payoff of that game's Icarus imagery in its theme was masterful.
      This franchise is, in my opinion, the best speculative science fiction that gaming as a genre has ever had.

    I always cry when I see these trailers, for 2 reasons: 1st, is just how epic the combination of music and visual art is, it's _sublime_ ; 2nd, most important, is just HOW MUCH DEEP AND RELEVANT it is, that even without augmentations, people will always have a reason to start a fight over something.

    As a big fan of the original Deus Ex from 2000, I was beyond hyped for Deus Ex: Human Revolution. I watched that trailer maybe... 10... dozen times. And it was a good game when it finally came out. Not perfect, but I wouldn't call any game in the series perfect, just really good and unique in certain aspects.

  • @sheert

    Ooh man it would be awesome if you played any of this series. The Icarus imagery is to do with humans pushing the limits of what is possible with augmentation and possibly regretting it. Deus Ex is one of the most philosophical game series out there. I love the 4 main games in the series (original, invisible war, human revolution, mankind divided). "It's not the end of the world, but you can see it from here." "I tried to save the world. Now look at it." I love how the trailer hints at the available augs!

    1:54 This is the problem with setting stories like this in the near future. The real world catches up with that timeframe so quickly that it turns stuff like this into kind of a joke. It reminds me of the way Star Trek set the Eugenics Wars in the 1990s. If you're going to write some wild stuff about the future, make the future you're writing about a little more distant.
    But setting that aside, I love Human Revolution and Mankind Divided, and I'm hopeful that Embracer Group is going to take the final game in the trilogy off the backburner and get it completed. Such a great series deserves better than to be left unfinished.
