god I missed playing deus ex. it doesn’t hit the same now. at the time it was a ridiculous story that incorporated every well known conspiracy theory, and it was fun as an obvious fantasy world where those things were all true.
now knowing there’s a alarmingly huge number of people who not only believe those but much much stupider shit while ignoring what theie government is doing right in front of their face … it just ruined my enjoyment of it. what used to be obvious fantasy now sounds exactly like genuine right wing propaganda. fuck me.
