Take your avant-garde sense of fashion elsewhere, traitor
There’s something about that hairclip that screams double agent. When I first saw it, I thought it looked mighty familiar…

Deus Ex: A Serious Love of Cereal
Cereal for breakfast, lunch, and dinner
With plenty of cereal snacks in-between to keep you going.
Cerea-sly, this protagonist loves cereal.
Deus Ex: Recycling Ammo
Who needs guns when you have trash to throw
When I started Deus Ex: Mankind Divided up for the third time (previous two times having failed on average computers. This is not a game for average computers) I was amazed at the sheer. amount. of. stuff everywhere. Forget ammo, recycling trash is where it’s at. And the stuff is not just lying there, it’s all stuff you can interact with!
If you want to distract a guard you don’t need to limit yourself to a trash can or vending machine. You can choose any one of the coffee cups or archive boxes lying around. You can kick things. You can knock things over with your butt. It’s awesome!
Deus Ex: making recycling cool.
Deus Ex: Dance Dance Revolution
An assassin must master the art of blending
Become one with the crowds…
Alas, if only you could blend so easily in real life, it would be most convenient.
This is an old but gold draw from years ago when I ran several art blogs.
Ancient civilisations planned ahead
…or a certain someone planned it beforehand
Shotgun shells and a muesli bar in 2000 year old ancient ruins? Seems awfully convenient…
Video Games VS Real Life
This is real life: don’t try it at home
In video games it’s easy to make friends. You walk up to a person, press ‘x’, and BAM they’re telling you their life story.
In real life there is no ‘x’ to start a conversation. You must be charming and suave all on your own. Seeing as how most of us can’t progress past “Lovely weather we’re having today…” or “Gosh the bus is late.”, it seems our quests will never be finished.
NEVER MIND. I’m lazy and don’t need the XP anyway.
Deus Ex: Back To Work
Sick leave won’t cover that…
When we left our protagonist, Adam Jensen, at the end of Deus Ex: Human Revolution, he was stuck 1.5 kilometers below sea level facing certain death. Of course, he was never going to stay down there; he had to get back to work!
The only problem was his boss was down there too. Time to dust off the old C.V.
Deus Ex: Checking Emails
At least he asked first…
You can steal anything you want from desks, drawers, rubbish bins…etc with no consequences in this game’s police station. But as soon as you want to do something normal, like checking emails, that’s when it goes pear-shaped.
Deus Ex: Moving Day
Deus Ex Moving Day: different location same messy apartment
Our protagonist, Adam Jensen, is a creature of habits. So when he moved from Detroit to Prague he made sure his apartment was just as home-y as it was before. Unpacking? Why unpack when everything is already neatly organised:
Where’s the remote? In a box.
Where’s the underwear? In a box.
Where’s the breakfast cereal? In a box.
Simple.
