A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Now that Deus Ex has been cancelled, what other games scratch the Deus Ex itch? (lemm.ee)

It's kind of sad that one of the greatest video game series is on hold for now.
Conspiracy theories, multiple ways of solving a mission, game lore hidden in computer inboxes...
Are there any (pre-2010) games that gave you the same feeling or do a similar thing?

Cyberp-

pre-2010

Ah shit.

I'm kinda struggling to think of any that are pre-2010 and not Deus Ex. Dishonored kinda?

Dishonored is 2012. I've got absolutely nothing.

Honestly I think Prey fits the request closer than Dishonored but that was released in 2017 so it's waaaay outta scope.

Damn, now I feel old haha

Still haven't played Prey but I keep hearing it's amazing.
