And then you went back in time and killed yourself. Which is never a clever thing to do. Also, it was a shit game.

PeZook, quite honestly, I don't know why are you hitting the old DX with a bat at this point. It's like clubbing baby seals to death.
We could go back to each and every IRC rpg session we played and pick on some unrealistic shortcomings. If you would let Stark (or Shep for that matter) anywhere nearby the logs from our Flashpoint RPG campaign his bodily fluids would turn into acid.

Why, maybe I'm a sadist?
I completed Deus Ex several times, so it's not like I really hate the game all that much. It's just that I see many of its shortcomings now which I used to totally ignore.

I thought we did do just that? Several times?

Lack of realism (or silly story) =/= boring game.
It's just that lots of people tend to think Deus Ex had a great story, which it really didn't.
