This scene is symbolic because we can see at the same time Adam having sex with Megan and Adam being augmented. Thus augmented Adam is a "child" of his former self and Megan's effort, metaphorically speaking he is a son of Adam and Megan.
Lo_Wang, tbh I don’t want another Deus Ex game with Adam. Not because I don’t like him-quite the opposite, really. I just think it’ll never be as good. Mankind Divided wasn’t as good as Human Revolution imo. Also, Deus Ex shouldn’t turn into a franchise with frequent sequels. Part of what made HR so magical was that it gave us a chance to return to the Deus Ex universe after so many years.
@@LOSTGAM3R People like to criticize mankind divided, in many ways it's the best Deus ex game that was shamefully cut in half and never allowed to show it's strength, also , you're absolutely right, I'd rather Deus ex get few high quality sequels like GTA rather than go full cod
***** O.O Wow, that took me entirely too long to fully understand. I've heard him say that before but it makes more sense now... he's not just talking about the pain. >.
Adam Jensen was a genetically modified child created in a lab, his genes would be used on other children but their parents burned the lab down and handed him to an old lady to find adoptive parents for him. His genes allows his body to quick recover and adapt easy with synthetics. He doesn't even need neuropozyne to avoid rejections on his augmentations because his body doesn't reject augmentations at all.
***** His body doesn't reject them, yes, but that's an oversimplification. His body creates a natural barrier to envelope the interface between organic and synthetic materials. This is the point where a normal person would develop the glial tissue that neuroprozene takes care of, but instead, Adam's body just tricks itself into thinking the implant is part of his natural body.
Rise and... shine. not that i wish to imply you have been sleeping on... the job, no one is more deserving of a rest. and all the effort in the world would have gone to waste until... well, let's just say your hour has... come again. the right man in the wrong place can make all the difference... in the world. so, wake up, mister Jensen. wake up and, smell the _ashes._
too dark for family, and god "Deus Ex" would cost more than "Star Wars" , no way they'll do this, remember then spit on Ridley Scott after his "blade runner"
Sam Hewitt FUCK NO! Star trek was a fucking mess, nothing in those movies made any sense whatsoever, it was just lasers and lens flares galore. Fucking terrible plot
Sam Hewitt Abrams would destroy Deus Ex. If I had to pick someone out of the usual bunch I'd also go with Ridley Scott, but 1970s/early 80s Ridley Scott, not the dude today. In other words, leave the series the fuck alone! They would only destroy it making it 12s ;)
***** LOL good one. I am actually still waiting for a Metroid movie. Though I am not a fan of this series, a female bounty hunter movie like this would work if done right.
They changed the reboot of Robocop way too much, yeah the graphics are impressive and some scenes are good, but I didn't like the training phases where they just said "fuck it, we'll turn off his brain and let the computer do the work, just to one-up the robots everyone else makes" They made it feel like RoboCop was barely needed, and he was barely needed since they had better robots then, unlike in the original. Plus they exchanged the protagonist having limbs shot off with blood everywhere which could have looked good with today's practical effects, and replaced it with a pesky car bomb. Were they trying to make RoboCop family friendly or something?
"yeah he's no good to me like this" and "his body can take it" is really good characterization from his boss. it seems heartless, but it underscores just how important adam is to his employer.
Don't forget about "he doesn't need that", "I'm sorry", "his body can take it" and "miraculous". Yeah, this one scene foreshadows quite a few discoveries.
@@vsaitanuj warning. Spoiler for Mankind Divided: Right in the beginning of the game, a character discovered that not only standard augmentations Adam were able to possess, he also have experimental augs, thus the line “his body can take it”. (could be a different meaning but this’s my theory) Also in a conversation between Adam and a woman, he revealed that his (Adam) body doesnt need Neuropozin. Any human being who had been augmented need this stuff to function normally. Adam doesnt. So basically he could be a God among men, or the augs’ Messiah. Therefore we have the foreshadowing phrase: “he doesnt need that” , “miraculous”.
@@nguyenhuy6742 iirc, the reason he can take any kind of aug without the need of neuropozin is because he was engineered on birth to handle it. reed researched adam and discovered a way to make other people handle augs without needing neuropozin as well, but then the entire game happened
This video keeps playing in my head right now, I'm about to have a surgery that will change my life. I hope you can wish me luck, guys. I really need this.
I love this opening credits scene so much. Not only do the visuals and audio blend perfectly, but I found the sexual imagery very emotionally moving. Why? Because sexual passion is the ultimate epitome of physical skin-to-skin contact, and the total body sensations one derives during love making e.g.using your hand to caress someones skin, or feeling a hand grab firmly on your hips, or arms, etc. ... these are the things that Adam will never be able to experience again as he becomes part machine. And this scene beautifully depicts this pivotal turning point in his life. Then when you learn why Megan is sorry at the end of the game, it all really comes home. It feels like the one person who had given Adam his most intimate moments in life was also the same person who was (at least partially) responsible for taking it away from him.
+Darth Jar Jar Well writen, but as i recall in "official" Sarif-industries web-site where all characteristics of implants and prostheses were listed there was one quality that all "external" augumentations have - "outer layers made of nano-something, that can translate "sensitive" information like texture, pressure, temperature and so into brain wery same way natural bodyparts do" so i think it's only "emotional" (f*ck emotions) loss, and his body still able to feel. And the reversive side - others to feel you. Remember the prostitutes in Hengsha - they said that "clients like augumented more" and i think that augumentations do not feels any different than original limb or so. They probably have same temperature, same texture etc. So the only catch is to "heal" from PTSD, because augumentations are very same bodyparts like original ones... just better
MstrMegaGuy The augmented reality function is done by his cybernetic eyes. I'm guessing these glasses are done for protection and the 'cool factor' that is sometimes used too often in cyberpunk works. *:* D
This is one of the best games I have ever played, its an underrated gem. Adam jensen is one hell of a protagonist & the soundtracks in this game are simply mind blowing
11 years ago... I remember how hyped I was for Human Revolution after seeing the iconic trailer. Decided to get it day one and it's still one of my favourite games ever.
For some reason I always play this in the background when replaying Mass Effect 2, the beginning part where *spoilers* Shepard is recreated. It just fits so well, especially considering that once you have completed Human Revolution it feels more powerfull.
I played this ages ago and it only just hit me what Adam did during the intro and I think it flew over other people's heads too. He used his military training to cope with what was being done to him which makes everything so much worse. He used his only happy memory of someone he thought he had lost to cope with the trauma of having everything in his body being augmented. (Something they teach people to do when they are put under extreme interrogation methods.) Unbeknownist to him it was that same person who was responsible for what was done to him. :(
That's what struck me in the opening scene. I remember cringing when I first watched it. The immense pain would be next to impossible to deal with, even seasoned combat veterans. First having your limbs and organs ripped out, then having electronics-infused metal parts. OUCH. I would feel like dying if I didn't die already. lmao
Deus ex its not a game its art , just imagine what is cost to create this world with oll that details .....FROM SCRATCH ! its pure sci-fi so all must be created and this is ART !!
One of my favourite games. I love that there are hints everywhere and you can understand things before they are explained. Like who is Patient X and so on. But my favourite moment was dialogue with Darrow at Panchea. Never thought that i could actually not only understand the main "villain" motives but also agree with him. "Technological progress is like an axe in the hands of a pathological criminal"
sadly it has been confirmed there will never be Mankind Divided part 2. Embracer has killed it off, along with a sizeable amount of staff at Eidos. ouch.
Baptiste Legrand It's a Cyberpunk, Sci Fi, Future-Noir story. Adam Jensen is a security guy who gets mortally injured and brought back to life with robotics. Then he goes on a quest to uncover the insanely deep conspiracy behind it. It's truly a masterpiece of storytelling, right up there with Ghost in the Shell or Blade Runner.
I played this yesterday for the first time in 2022, and the opening two hours were absolutely mind blowing. If you worked on this game, very well done!
This would be so f*cking epic movie intro!! I mean how much adrenaline rush would you be in to see the movie after kickass intro that makes you care about the character thats story is being told? This game is one of those that im gonna miss when we have no chance to play it (consoles broke down/no way to get it/ impossible to make it work with new Windows and shit.) (and missing Deus Ex1 ofcourse)
i still Remember when i played this masterpiece during the beta time. it was like 3:00AM i was like.. (i will just finish the first mission, and then go sleep.) then this Opening pops up i slept at 8:25AM that day. great memories
The guy says miraculous because his body did not reject augmentations,Which nobody had shown before. His DNA helped in creation of neuropyzne ,a drug that helped people get used to augmentations.
no, Jensen was not related to the creation of Neuropozyne. however, Megan _did_ research him, and what she found was the reason Sarif was attacked at the beginning of the game.
More importantly, Missing Link is now streamlined into the playthrough, rather than a separate thing in the main menu. And the boss battles are not simply 'patched', they have been gutted and totally rebuilt.
I think It’s best opening credits of all games I ever played. An Idea, an actors, a music - all parts of intro is perfect. Especially music. Note that how compositor was mix classical music and modern electronic music. This composition is symbolizing main plot idea.
WOW, what an insight oh wait maybe there's a reason you over-state your importance in every video you make and add bass boost. Are you going to whine at me again for calling you out because that's what really macho guys do?
I had a surgery to repair the meniscus in my right knee after I tore it in an MMA fight. The doctor told me the sutures in the repaired tissue would never tear again, and it felt like this cutscene lmao
The soundtrack of this game is a masterpiece. There is no other way to call it; after playing the entire game and knowing which soundtrack associates with what occurring, it is impossible for me to play any music from this game without getting chills all over. I don't know any other game, maybe except for the original, that made that happen to me with EVERY SINGLE PART OF THE SOUNDTRACK.
Just finished it today. Story wise there is no competition but it does have a lot of improved mechanics over HR. Mankind Divided felt like it ended at where a good halfway point would have been.
Music is beyond legendary. This game/its soundtrack along with the Matrix are in my lifelong hall of fame…some of the greatest pieces of art I’ve ever experienced
Can't stop replaying... can't turn the volume up loud enough for this awesome music. seriously, this is like movie credits, it's the coolest thing i've EVER seen...
Just completed this game yesterday. I have to say, this is one of the best games ever made! From the character development between Adam, David, Pritchard, and the antagonists to the Megan Reed sub plot. Truly a masterpiece. The upgrading system was awesome, the hacking mini game was so damn addictive, and the inventory system was a great throw back to Resident Evil 4 and the original Deus Ex. Thank you Eidos Montreal for making this masterpiece!
First time I ever played this, I experienced a bug where the main menu theme kept playing through this cutscene for some reason. I thought it was how this was supposed to play out, and tbh I was disappointed the next playthrough when I realized it wasn't the true background music. Seriously, just go find the menu music theme and play it at the same time as you start this. It completely changes the entire mood.... It's so dreary, depressing and somber. I felt a much bigger connection with Jensen because of that damn glitch. In all seriousness, he never asked for this, even though he worked at a company that specializes in human augmentation. Adam as a character had no real strong opinion one way or another on the issue of "controlled evolution", yet he didn't volunteer for any of the special offers he had the potential of getting for working as the security for such a successful brand. When you hear the main theme with this in mind, it's like you can feel what he's feeling as he's dying inside, leaving his past behind him to become an entirely new person. It's like he's forced to say farewell, to everything. The only thing that keeps him going from then on is the pursuit of justice, and bringing the people who are responsible for all this down. EDIT: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-JpTcZJJ-lm0.html For christ sake, it's even in sync with both his vision of Megan and his synthetic heartbeat.
This scene takes on a whole new meaning after you finish the game. This really lives up to the title, leaving players with nothing but a Deus Ex Machina.
