cautionary? Turing and Minsky said this in the early 50s.

Lovelace said this a century before we ever built a computer

LittleBorat2 ,

I could not finish any other part but this game. Anything like it?

I mean that reboot was OK but could not grab me.

Deus Ex always ahead of the curve

Aged like milk.

bloodfart ,

In what way?

wowwoweowza ,

Turns out that the world DOES believe in AI and I said aged like milk because the original line is cautionary but we do didn’t listen and now we will suffer those consequences. It was an under appreciated comment because I did not offer clear context.

linkhidalgogato ,

yeah almost like capitalist have been fantasying about and drooling at the possibility of ruining millions of people lives by replacing them with functionally useless automated systems, just to end up hiring the same people as some new made up job that has the same responsibilities but lower pay because supposedly the computer is doing most of it now.

I agree with John Travolta.

Timecircleline ,

Wise words from Tommy Wiseau.

moistclump ,

Jake Peralta?

SpicyLizards ,

That was musk while he studied the blade and didn't own any 'ai'.

onion ,

You mean back when he thought renaming PayPal to X would be the answer to the worlds problems?

NegativeInf ,

It's funny how much of a one track mind he has. Participate in/purchase a decently operational company, attempt to rename it x, ????, profit. We are currently in the ???? Phase again.

@cmdr_nova@lemmy.world avatar

This right here. It's absolutely ridiculous that anyone thinks Musk was ever a reasonable and of sound mind type of person

If the original Deus Ex came out today, it would get lynced and cancelled in an instant. It's too anti-establishment for todays mood.

It would just have the tone dialed down a lot, like the new Deus Ex games.

TrickDacy ,

...no it wouldn't.

Zehzin ,
@Zehzin@lemmy.world avatar

I think they meant "cancelled" as in "a bunch of terminally online people would make videos calling out its 'wokeness' and how it's the end of western society"

TrickDacy ,

So instead of "cancelled" they meant some people would criticize it. Yeah what a new phenomenon

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Conservatism is punk rock and Donald Trump would be JC.

gibmiser ,

What the fuck crack are you smoking

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

I don’t smoke fuck crack buds.

Daxtron2 ,

Fuckcrack is all the rag on the streets these days

Darkenfolk ,

But do you fuck crack smoke?

What the fuck are you talking about

antidote101 , (edited )

I think they're saying it's punk rock to hate women and screw poor people over, whilst being racist and bigoted in every way possible.

Aka it's punk rock to have no idea about the history and political aspects of punk rock.

...in fairness, Johnny "I do butter commercials now" Rotten agrees. Which gives "God save the queen" a whole different quality.

arefx ,

Thats silly everyone knows its punk rock to go to punk shows, and hate the establishment.

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Well Biden is too old and white to be punk rock so Trump is.

arefx ,

You can be old and white, and both and be punk rock. Biden and Trump aren't punk because they just aren't lol. Not because they are old or white......

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Biden is Nickelback and Trump is Sum 41.

arefx ,

Both shitty mainstream rock? Both those bands are cringe for different reasons.

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Sum 41 is as good of punk rock as Nickelback rock.

arefx ,

Negative, they are just a mass marketed pop rock product with some light metal riffing added in.

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Stop gatekeeping music.

arefx ,

Never lol gotta keep you chuds outta the real punk scene

arken ,

How about punk rock is the only thing that is punk rock, starting now?

roguetrick ,

People are here actually trying to make sense of what @SatansMaggotyCumFart is saying.

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Is my opinion less valid than anyone else's?

roguetrick ,

Yes.

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

You just hate conservatives.

roguetrick ,

That's just, like, your opinion man.

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Yeah well, I still jerk off manually.

Skullgrid ,
@Skullgrid@lemmy.world avatar

you know what, correct. Fuck them people, I'm not even rougetrick.

SatansMaggotyCumFart ,

Wait, do you hate conservative or do you want to fuck them?

JeffreyOrange ,

Thats is an incredibly unrealistic take.

antidote101 ,

more likely it would be released by an indie dev company and not noticed.

BTW: The game is currently on sale at gog.com for 99 Cents. Wanted to replay it and buying it was easier than digging out my discs or piracy.

@crony@lemmy.cronyakatsuki.xyz avatar

Any must have mods to experience the game in a more modern setting?

Tried playing today with gmdx on linux but was crashing all the time.

bjoern_tantau ,
@bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de avatar

Don't know. Lutris offered to install the Community Update so that's what I did. Direct3D 10 seemed to work best for me. But I have only walked a little bit around the tutorial so far.

crony ,
@crony@lemmy.cronyakatsuki.xyz avatar

Thanks for mentioning lutris and community update. Installs all needed mods that in general also prepare deus ex for max performance for linux.

GMDX is pretty neat

Bartsbigbugbag ,

Other than patches to fix bugs, I recommend against most of the highly praised mods.They change a lot more of the gameplay abc story than people usually admit, and you lose that original feeling of the game.

wax ,

Deus ex: revision is pretty good too. Changes a bit more than GMDX compared to the original though (e.g., more map changes, some new soundtracks)

What game?

uninvitedguest ,
@uninvitedguest@lemmy.ca avatar

Deus Ex

@Oha@lemmy.ohaa.xyz avatar
