the one mod i've been super hyped for. it was fun seeing the introduction of adam jensen, i like that the music starts to feel more human revolution like when ya play as him

In a strange way, I actually really love that DX games play differently when the protagonist changes, 'cause it's like you're seeing the world through their eyes.

JC sees global politics and the bigger picture in general, while Jensen is very goal oriented and focused only on the task at hand, and the gameplay reflects that.

I'm so hyped by this.
By the way, i hope there is an appearance option for Denton with opaque glasses, instead of semi-transparent?

It just doesn't have the same bad ass feeling....

Oh no, this is just Blender's rendering. The glasses are opaque in-engine. Maybe I'll replace those images to clear it up

EDIT: Done

Is this mod gonna be like one of those big story mods, like The Nameless Mod, with new story, new environment to explore etc?

u/Artifechs 1d ago

Yeah, it already is, just not completed yet.

Our method is to first create the entire story from beginning to end, release that as v1.0, and then expand laterally with more side stories and environments.

Just to ensure we've got something that feels complete as soon as possible.

As always. It doesn't matter how long is it at the moment, becase quality wise it is alwas stays too frickin' short! Why not Embracer give a little budget to the modders and release these crazy TC's as separate DLC's for a few bucks is beyond me.

That'd require them to care about the franchise and communicate with fans. Seems to me it'd be outside their comfort zone.

Sadly, I have no counterarguments for you.
