Deus Ex: Mankind Divided (Square Enix Reveal new Deus Ex)

That's just like your opinion man...
The issue is, if it was just one thing I would not be bothered, but there are many things that they got wrong on this occasion.
End of the day circlejerk or no, it is my experience and my opinion. I think I would have had a better overall experience if there was no breach and no desperate measures included to be honest. Felt like a waste of time and resources which could have been used on the main story.
I am sure many will not agree with that but that is my opinion, so you won't get circlejerk sauce all over you on this one
If you want to moan about it that's your choice. It is still clearly part of the main storyline and not a sidequest they threw together so your opinion on that is moot. Maybe some resources were spent tweaking it but I very much doubt they put together something like that from scratch just to give away as preorder DLC.
Breach Mode... meh. Played a bit of it and it is good fun but feels so ludicrously grindy.

You started going on about this dodgy "circle jerking" business before I even said anything about it being a sidequest and you seem to want to use that to say my opinion is moot now? Straw man much? lol. The point here is not whether it is a side quest or not, the point is people including myself are not happy with the result, rather simple really
Thanks the results are interesting. Amd card had gains, but that was expected.
some nvidia users reported massive performance losses with dx12, but they probably didn't have a 5960x @ 4.6ghz .
Will nvidia be releasing dx12 deus ex optimised driver in time with the final dx12 game patch ? Will this make a difference.

You sound displeased with the result. Has this effected your decision whether or not your going to boycott the series, or will you carry on? Or are you undecided?
First paid story mission is due in 2 weeks. It doesn't appear to be part of mankind divided's story line. Sounds like it will get Jensen back on track on his main overall mission, bringing down the Illuminati.

I have a 5930k @ 4.5ghz and a 980ti and DX12 always makes performance worse in every game I've tried it with.

Well that would explain why SLI is not working in DX12, teaches me to not read the release notes, was thinking I kept messing up with some settings
SLi will never work in Dx12, as it does mGPU.
Nah, won't be boycotting or anything like that. I like Deus Ex way to much to boycott it easily. Just did not quite live up to my expectations is all
There are many nice improvements in MD which I am happy with. I think if they take feedback on board and work on making the main story longer and better, they will have a winner on their hands for the next game.
Looking forward to the next dlc. I got the digital deluxe edition so it is already paid for anyway, so would be playing either way

Got to admit, I thought MDMA mode would work alongside SLI modes in DX12. So I checked AToS multi-GPU DX12 mode and face palm, it does say to disable SLI explicitly when using DX12 multi GPU. Now I feel stupid
No probs. Yeah I was expecting a hit also so ran DX12 1080 tests a few times and 3 times when I thought SLI was broken
But I did see on one test I ran with the Nano at 1080p the score being far lower in DX12 then DX11. But when I ran in the next few times the scores seemed to be about as expected. So not entirely sure if there is something flaky going on with the benchmarks. I say that as looking at 3D Guru's results, I see the 1080 getting hit hard wit DX12 for 1080p, but then is fine for 1440p and 4k. GTX 1060 also looks fine using same architecture, so maby something odd is going on.

Not bashing at all but DX12/Vulkan generally brings weaker AMD cards up to scratch with nvidia ones. It's a... pretty fundamental weakness in the nvidia cards and will continue to be so for a while yet.
If you have an NV card, stick with DX11 as long as possible, they'll maybe get something sorted but more likely is DX12 gives a significant boost to AMD cards and they'll have a leg up going forward.

Just completed the game for a third time
Majority of the achievements are done. Apart from the breach achievements, I need to do: I Never Asked For This, Foxiest of Hounds and Tablet Collector. Next playthrough will do I Never Asked For This and Foxiest of Hounds. Not sure when I will get to tablet collector though, that one seems a bit silly with 70+ tablets

Still on M6 but haven't played the main story in days, probably not since last weekend. Totally engrossed in side missions and exploring, just finished the Neon side mission -I love the way there are so many ways to do it. 39 hours so far.
I had a somewhat random thought last night while playing the game. Is it ever explained exactly why there are an inordinate amount of amputees in the DE universe? I can accept that some of them have been enhanced purposefully, ie military operatives and some of the criminal factions, but surely that only equates to a small percentage of the population?
Many of those we see with prosthetics are seemingly normal members of the public. On the occasions we are told how a person became disabled (usually throught reading the disocverable ebooks or emails), 9/10 it is due to accident / illness. Taking that in to account ,are we to assume the DE populace is just deeply unlucky?
Just a thought.

In HR it was the rich who were aug heavy, Given the settings across MD I would assume that many you are seeing as augmented are the loaded upper end of society.
Amazing number of collectibles here for those who explore. Looter’s paradise. Even some of the areas that I have already searched once or twice – e.g. Koller’s place, when I went back and checked with Smart Vision there were about another ten items I had missed! This game really does reward deep exploration. Haven’t touched the main campaign in over a week, loving just exploring the gameworld and hacking etc.. I still preferred the world of DXHR overall, but Prague is definitely growing on me.
Getting rid of the stuttering and clunky movement helped big time.

I am still only on main mission 4. Just looking around all day!
That is the best way to play it really. Maximise the fun.
I even press CAPS Lock to slow down at times, it can be a lot more immersive when not sprinting everywhere. Some of the graphics and reflections look really good when you are walking and observing them.
Come to think about it, the graphics are very good, just let down by not using motion capture and reusing faces. I have seen the Lars shop guy's face reused like 4-5 times. They just add a hat, or facial hair etc
I have stopped playing now. Waiting for the DLC to come out before I continue.
