Hi Lyra! A little random, but thanks for recommending Deus Ex so much so many months ago. Finally got time to play it and it is so much fun! Shame I can't remember all the little tips and tricks you wrote all that time ago. Anyways, onto my actual question: When you've actually gotten time to play anything, if at all, what have you spending most of your time on?

I’m glad you’re enjoying it!

Not sure how many tips I offered. I do remember one glitch I encountered. When you get back to base after the first real mission, don’t go into any apartment buildings until you get a side mission to non-lethally capture a specific gang member. If you run into his guards before hand, one of them might glitch and get teleported to an area you can’t reach once you get the mission. It’s the only glitch I ever ran across in all three of my playthroughs, which is a shame because it happened so early off that it really lowers the precieved quality of the game.

Talk to people. Side missions aren’t specially marked and you don’t want to miss out on any. Plus you can hear some useful or immersive dialog.

If you’re having trouble with a boss fight, know that the first two can be won with only the equipment found in the battle room. If it comes down to it, try to avoid the boss and look around the room for weapons or environmental objects to use. There’s a few weapons lying around in the third boss room, but if you can win with just that, I have no idea how. Anything that can damage you, can and will damage a boss. The only exception is that you can’t do a melee attack against them, but they can against you.

You mean like, most time spend on a single game ever? If MMOs are included, City of Ponies by far. If we’re only talking about regular games, Disgaea. The game isn’t all that long, I just liked playing around and having fun with it.

I also enjoyed Disgaea 2, and would have played 3 and 4, but I don’t have a Playstable 3.

Edit: Huh, just realized you might have meant the first Deus Ex. Let me know if that’s what you meant.
