His brother was either A) killed and is being dissected, B) held prisoner and left to die while being cruely examined, and the rest of his friends at UNATCO are essentially being held hostage. It's desperate vengeance plain and simple
This is the best track in the game, at least the best battle track. You can hear the sickness and fury in JC's heart, his idealism betrayed by reality.
Metall I feel that, but to be honest I don’t think I’ve ever left him behind in any run, nor had he died. Still, I can imagine missing the poor dude so easily... 1 like = 1 prayer...? Lmao
Great idea! Other ordinary UNATCO guys don't deserve a lethal takedown :(. Not fancy killing Manderly either but he attacks me himself though... I still remember how when I've tried to peacefully leave his room he killed me in the back with a single headshot xD
@@Ctrekoz Even if you knock him out they still blame you for his death on the public access terminals, might be a dev oversight but knowing this game he was probably taken care of by MJ12 themselves.
@@odessanlo2 yep, if you kill him when there's hologram of Simons still present, then he will say "Splendid, you did our dirty work for us". Pretty much confirms that they would kill Manderley regardless.
alsnana00 Just the moment you feel like you’ll take revenge makes me feel like people are protesting in my head. And just realizing the betrayal the MJ12 traitors have done to make UNATCO a tool is just enough for you to feel wrath against the pranksters.
@Gears of Cognition I would disagree, but still respect your opinion. I see that he did, regarding how he spoke with Manderley when confronting him as he was talking to Simmons.
@Gears of Cognition I see, good point. What made me think of his irritation and anger is of the words he uses, nothing more than this. Both viewpoints are honestly good enough!
@Gears of Cognition JC only appears emotionless in acting just so the player can instill their own emotions ( wccftech.com/interview-warren-spector-system-shock-3-deus-ex-trilogy/ ) , but, we can reasonably expect that judging from this music, and how we acted in general prior to those events, he was at least upset. Also, the conversation with the lady (forgot her name), "Amazing if you think about it, all those dreams ... (forgot) when really this place is just a cinderblock" or something like that. Anyway, point is, he had emotions, he felt betrayed.
+William Cameron 1+I think after part of the game, you can go full lethal since there are no real moral burdens in getting rid of scumbags that want to take over the world.
Taking 'em out with crossbow or prod seems reasonable when it comes to your former comrades. But have you eliminated your former boss in the most silent way? And I don't mean crossbow or suppresed firearm.
The synth at the start of this track almost sounds like a news channel intro, one that is "informing" the masses of the new threat to America and public enemy, Agent JC Denton. I realized this as I was fighting some UNATCO troops in the break room with the giant TV on.
I make a deliberate point of going full lethal from this point forward (well actually from the MJ12 base beneath but you know) I suppose the cleanup crew is going to wonder why I killed EVERYONE except Carter and Alex....
Oh I forgot Jamie ....and No I don't kill him anyway you get something from him later if I remember - but yer everyone else is dead. Mikel or however you spell his name from the Mj12 cells below sometimes complicates matters as he has a habit of charging at people who Im trying to to crowbar but still. Now I wonder if you can clean sweep the whole building - what the consequences would be for killing absolutely everyone >;(
In my current run, I'm TRYING not to kill UNATCO guys, but I'm going full lethal on any MJ12. I mean, come on. You know you're working for the bad guy when their logo is a hand grabbing for the earth and you're dressed in all black.
I played the deis ex rivision and lemme tell you. At first you feel weird and out of place you are augmented but cant shoot acurate or hack shit or be stealthy but as the story proceedes so do you and it gets to a point you really feel its personal, you have some choices but it really sticks to you. I liked it so much i played it 3 times already 😂😂
Ragitsu, it's a shame that there are no moments at this place where you can fight long enough to hear the whole soundtrack. Except if you bring all soldiers + Anna together and try to kill them with pistol. Hell, that would be epic and hard...
always get memorys of fighting anna in unatco because i didn't kill her on the plane and ran away from her in the subway. anna was so annoying and evil.
Thankfully I was mostly nonlethal during the escape. I knocked out troopers when they were alone and I avoided going to the guarded prison area because going there wasn't the way out. I had to kill two or three UNATCO troopers, though.
I always tried to avoid killing Troopers. Poor bastards thought they were fighting for the good guys. As JC once said: "What good's an honest soldier if he can be ordered to behave like a terrorist?"
I can imagine it now, a scene from a TV adaptation of Deus Ex: [JC Denton steps out of Manderley's office and sees Anna Navarre across the hall. "Enemy Within - Combat" track starts.] Anna: It looks like I'll have to kill you myself. JC: Take your best shot, flatlander woman. Anna: How did you know-- *Explodes, with shrapnel and gore flying past JC, tiny specs of blood splashing onto him; He shows no reaction other than wiping the blood off his sunglasses* [The facility alarm is sounded a second or two later (because they heard the explosion), and the music track hits 0:12; JC looks up to see the flashing alarm lights before focusing on the stairwell leading up to the first floor of UNATCO HQ. JC hides behind the wall corner while a handful of UNATCO troops rushing down the hall with Assault Rifles. Just as they turn the corner, JC grabs the Assault Rifle of the lead UNATCO trooper with one hand, pointing the rifle downwards, and karate chops the trooper's adam's apple with the other hand. JC pushes the choking lead trooper back and the second trooper behind collapses underneath. JC rushes the third trooper, crouching and running as bullets whiz past his head. JC reaches up and grabs the chin and left shoulder of the third trooper, spinning him around to face the fourth trooper. The fourth trooper ceases fire since he can't get a clear shot on Denton without killing his friend, and JC uses this to his advantage by kneeing the third trooper in his abdomen and shoving him into the fourth trooper. The fourth trooper tries to regain his balance, but JC kicks his legs out from underneath him and the trooper lands on his face with a thud. The second trooper starts to stand up when JC takes out his dart gun and shoots him with a tranquilizer. JC then delivers a blow to the base of the fourth trooper's skull that knocks him out cold. JC turns and cautiously makes his way up the stairwell as the second trooper passes out.]
With how useless Hollywood has become, the main character of the deus ex series would be Jasmine Denton, a strong, independent foul mouthed female with no training who can do no wrong. Every man in the show would be completely useless.
i was such a pacifist, in NYC when the nsf and unatco groups start fighting on side of the hotel,hotel, gassed everyone then hit all the nsf soldiers to knock them out so the unatco men wouldn't kill them.I played it without killing any of the black suit men as well. though it was hard in the gas station mission to save the scientists daughter.
@@Ragitsu If there's one thing DX teaches it's that big government and big business together is a recipe for disaster. For me that seems like a good argument to NOT HAVE such a big government, especially since most Big Business is only Big because they use their Money to get the government to use their Power to protect them from competition. It has always been that way, in Feudalism, and barring maybe a few decades or MAYBE a century in GB and the Netherlands, it is still this way today
@@Ragitsu Nah, not a lolbert, though funnily enough my name is bert, rembert. Firmly grounded in philosophy of law/right ;) Also, I'm not afraid of roads!

Perhaps it also hints that JC is very much human beneath his placid exterior.
if only the acting was good enough to care

A GEP Gun is the most silent way to eliminate Manderley.
But not until you get Pills against his orders.
Don't forget to open the mayor and go in, and go in, and go in like the US Marshall and his three daughters.
"Consider that my resignation; I forgot to write a letter."

It's a shame I never got to hear this in-game, because I was being stealthy and non-lethally subduing my former comrades.
With the GEP gun? The GEP gun takedown is always the most silent way to eliminate Manderley after all.
tbh if you use tranquilizer darts, it will alert the troop you hit and play the combat track

Maybe it's not such a good idea to piss off JC *FUCKING* DENTON.
When this music plays, you know you've lost all hopes of a normal life.
The theme of "oh well, guess who's been piling up all this assault rifle ammo while escaping the MJ12 base"
"You have nothing."
"We'll see about that."
"Take your best shot."
The most badass track in the game.
I make a deliberate point of going full lethal from this point forward

You kill Jaime? Why?
Oh I forgot Jamie ....and No I don't kill him anyway you get something from him later if I remember - but yer everyone else is dead.
