Ashley Cooper+FollowDid Deus Ex Really Dodge Politics?Remember the first time Deus Ex made you question what games could be? The devs claim they weren’t pushing an agenda, but can any game truly be neutral when it lets you reshape the world? With its mix of radical factions and shadowy billionaires, Deus Ex seems to invite players to debate the future of humanity. Can a creator’s worldview ever be left at the door, or is every choice in the game a subtle nudge? Let’s talk: does player agency really mean political neutrality? #Games #VideoGames #DeusEx10Share

Cloud+Follow🎮 MIND-BLOWN: Deus Ex Almost Became a Command & Conquer Game!Did you know one of gaming's greatest immersive sims nearly lived in the C&C universe? 🤯 Back in 1994, Warren Spector was developing a game codenamed "Troubleshooter" starring a supercop named Jake Shooter. When he couldn't sell the concept internally, he was literally about to sign with Westwood to make it a Command & Conquer RPG! "I was sick to death of space marines and alien invasions," Spector recalled. "I wanted to do something different." Lucky for us, Doom co-creator John Romero swooped in with basically a blank check, letting Spector join Ion Storm to create his vision freely. Troubleshooter became Deus Ex, Jake Shooter became JC Denton, and gaming history was made! ✨ Imagine if we got "Command & Conquer: Troubleshooter" instead of the cyberpunk masterpiece we know and love! Sometimes the best games come from the wildest "what if" moments in gaming history 🎯 #DeusEx #CommandAndConquer #Games #AlternateLives 00Share
