Deus Ex: Human Revolution Director's Cut
For those interested in Deus Ex: Human Revolution, the director's cut has been released.
What's different?
Source: What's different in Deus Ex: Human Revolution Director's Cut? - ArqadeImproved Flow
First you must understand that the Missing Link DLC and original game were treated as separate games in your steam library. However director cut combines them both into a single game so that it has better flow and feels more natural with the story. Generally, you could have missed the point where it was "logical" to play the DLC since its at a specific point in the story.
Multiple Games Displaying Instead of Merge in Steam Library
You will end up having 3 games in total because of this (assuming you have Deus Ex Human Revolution and the DLC before buying director cut.) It will display in your library with (Deus Ex Human Revolution, Deus Ex Human Revolution Director Cut, Deus Ex Human Revolution: Missing Link)
Price Discount on Steam
They will also slash the price of it from 20 to 10 if you own original game. If you own DLC on top of that it goes from 10 to 5 dollars.
Features
The Director's Cut has the following new features...
- New game+ (Only Augmentations carry over)
- Improved Textures
- Reworked Bosses
- 45 Minute Documentary
- Around 8 hours of commentary from Eidos Montreal
- Can have two energy cell recharge by default on all but the hardest difficulty
- Players can now use Jensen’s augmentation powers more freely
Reworked Bosses
Now remember that the reworked bosses is incredibly important for this DLC and the main selling point for many fans. The reason the Deus Ex Human Revolution bosses were unfaithful to the original source was that the game itself was outsourced to another company to create the boss battles so it didn't really follow as close to the other work done on the game as it should have. Leading to the bosses being more like a generic FPS instead of having multiple viable options based on how you developed your character.
Note the Steam Discount: If you already have DE: HR and The Missing Link DLC, the Directors Cut is just 5 bucks; otherwise 19 buck for the complete game - which now includes the Missing Link DLC.
Anyway I thought I'd post for any fans of the game.
Peace
