    Cyberpunk 2077 Is Not Like Deus Ex

    Posted: 04 Aug 2020 05:57 PM PDT

    Just a lighthearted discussion on Cyberpunk comparisons.

    The difference in the 2 games are perfectly illustrated through the cover art. For Deus Ex JC Denton is staring up into the light, not a ray from god, but flood lights from helicopters whirling above. He's resigned to his fate that he was built for something much bigger than his life.

    On the other hand take V. V looks down upon the world as if to take over, it's a challenge to the city. Instead of seeking escape V wants to go all in no holds bars. JC is coming towards the end of his journey, V's has just begun.

    Deus Ex is focused on shadow governments and powerful corporations. Cyberpunk is more of an individuals story.

    The next is style. Deus Ex has a gothic style cyberpunk take. Trench coats, dark sunglasses, eternal night, and a barren looking world.

    Cyberpunk 2077 has a retro feel, there is sunlight to balance the darkness, neon lights, crazy hairstyles, and the city is full of life.

    Cyberpunk is an open world, Deus Ex uses hubs.

    Decisions in Deus Ex have little bearing in the world. For example an important decision can be staying with your brother Paul to fight off the agents. You can argue this has consequences because Paul can live or die so it's a major decision. In Truth it doesn't change the direction of the game at all. It simply means of you save him then you see him briefly in Hong Kong, if you let him die then he's lying in the infirmary at the MJ13 labs. Just like all the other decisions you make it doesn't make a real difference to the story or what takes place.

    Cyberpunk on the other hand has lots of decisions with real world consequences. If you allow an enemy to live they may return later and try to kill you, they may help you, it may change the storyline in some way, you might have access to a mission that would bot be available otherwise.

    Everyone in Deus Ex has very toned down personalities and they tend to be quite stoic in nature.

    Contrast this with Cyberpunk where characters can be emotional and act within a much wider variety of human expression.

    In Deus Ex you don't make the story, you are just uncovering a plot.

    In Cyberpunk you are the story and shift it with your choices.

    These were just a few reasons why I think these two games are very different.

    Elon Musk is one of the people that is fearing what AI can be and can lead to our destruction.

    I know that he is a huge fan of Deus Ex, because his twitter account is showing JC denton a lot.
    Do you guys think that he fears AI because of stories like Deus Ex, Terminator etc.?
