Deus Ex remaster looks horrible. Stick with Revision.

Sounds like a cheap cash in and console port (I have no clue how they are going to make the the OG Deus Ex work on console).

OG deus ex was already on consoles. It came out on PS2 in 2002.

I stand corrected.

The reason why I brought this up is because of the weapons systems and RPG like progression of weapons usage.

it's not bad, but it does look like the same level of enhancement as going from PS1 to PS2 graphics.

OK I kept seeing "it looks so bad!" It honestly just reminds me of... black mesa? The upscale of half life. Yes it's not pretty like a lot of these remaster but as long as they didn't fuck with the game I'm ok.. don't know what workarounds I need to play it right now and I'm otw, so a remaster that works on what I have with just going is fine... but again otw probably waiting for a sale regardless

Not sure what you mean? Black Mesa isn’t just an upscale, it’s a full remake with massive changes and new content (and it’s great!).

don't know what workarounds I need to play it right now

You have a few options. Revision or Transcended are popular. I developed the Vanilla Fixer and Zero Rando, which are both also good choices for first time players or veterans.
