Game Type:
First Person Shooter - Role Playing Game

Setting:
The setting and feel of the game is still Cyberpunk but with a Renaissance twist. The Renaissance aspects do not overshadow the near-future setting but complement certain aesthetics. One of the reasons it was chosen is related to one of Deus Ex 3's core story elements: in the game, humans are really starting to utilise mechanical augmentations - everything from having your personal information implanted in a chip beneath your skin to completely replacing limbs with all-mechanical parts (prosthetics). At this point in human evolution, we are starting to really understand the body and improve it in terms of functionality, quality and longevity which mirrors what happened during the Renaissance when people like DaVinci started dissecting humans and learning about the inner workings of the body for the first time.

Deus Ex 3 will have blood and realism but gore will remain limited - it is not a game about butchery. There won't be any over-the-top extreme content either, like dueling chainsaws. Mature content will remain realistic.

Sociology is touched upon in the game, particularly in relation to the augmentations. Essentially, DX3 explores the beginnings of human augmentation and the transhumanism movement is a major influence in the game. There are people who think it's "playing God" to modify the body whatsoever and there are people (Transhumanists) who think it's the natural evolution of the human species to utilise technology. You're caught in the middle of this storm and must decide which path you take. The visual stigma augmentated people bear adds fuel to the huge societal rift between them and natural humans that's at the centre of Deus Ex 3's vision of the future. Consider, for example, the endemic racism of 1950s/60s America for imagery, attitudes and problems augmented people face in DX3.



DEUS EX 3 GAME SUMMARY:
A huge cyberpunk story with conspiracies.
Non-linear, multi-path, multi-solution gameplay.
Different ways to solve any objective depending on your play style (social, hacking, stealth or action).
Character and weapon customisation.
Action/RPG just like the first game.
Choices and consequences.
A semi-open world approach to levels and missions.
Different characters to meet and interact with.
An inventory system similar to DX1.
It's not a sandbox. It's not totally linear. It's like the best of both of those approaches.
Random explorable elements with earned experience points.
Global travel.


Ive been looking forward to this game for a while now. I wish it would just come out allready!


Edit: updated some info.

newy:
Prequel to DX1

Hopefully, it is as good as the developers say/it's as good as (or even better than) DX1. Topping DX2 shouldn't be so difficult, though. xD
