This game is fantastic. I've put 20+ hours into it since getting my copy last week and I find myself enjoying it more and more each time I pick up the controller. I've upgraded my character to focus on stealth so I can see through walls, see every enemy's cone of vision, and run and jump around without being heard. The only gun I use is a tranquilizer so besides the boss fights (the only time where you can't choose how to approach the situation and easily the worst parts of the game) I've managed to not kill anyone thus far.
The levels are brilliant in their intricate-yet-open design, the side missions are plentiful and incredibly varied and creative and, most importantly, this feels EXACTLY like what Deus Ex should feel like. This isn't a reboot or a modern shooter simply being branded with the Deus Ex name - this really is the 3rd game in the series, a direct continuation of where they left off in The Invisible War. It took a long time but it was worth the wait.
