No! I shall not less this go uncontested.
Enviroments are great, it has a decent art style to it. Not a HUGE amount of variety but you do get to see different cities and stuff.
Bosses were terrible, yes. Worst part of the game.
Gameplay is amazing. One thing - it isn't Deus Ex. It is more of a shooter with rpg elements than vice versa but that really doesn't change the fact that it's great. It still gives you loads of flexibility and lots of different options and routes through the game.
The story was good too. It's also got loads of background stuff and lots of different emails etc to read which I liked a lot since I like those types of things. The story was interesting enough to keep me engrossed.
The graphics are pretty good and it runs well now it's been patched, no stuttering issues. Looks great. They did a really good job of the port and it actually feels like a pc game should feel.
I personally think it's the best Deus Ex game honestly. The original is too dated and has several crippling design flaws. HR is nowhere near as patchy around the edges as the original.
It's much more challenging (I found) in that you aren't given the dragon sword, which, on normal mode in the original, literally let you smash your way through the entire game without paying attention. Sneaking around and finishing the game non-lethal (other than those goddamn bosses) is actually fun rather than frustrating due to the retarded AI. I also preferred the shooting - sure it isn't a proper rpg but the shooting was one of the originals weak points and it was something you were doing all the time.
HR does have other problems of course (like any game) but the only glaring one is the boss battles which comprise a tiny tiny portion of the game. I really don't know where all the hate is coming from here
Hopefully it'll come up in the steam sale so I can grab the DLC.
