Paul... I thought you were in Hong Kong.

Square Enix has confirmed that the franchise isnt going anywhere, but they're busy working on a few very large projects so it's unlikely that development has even begun on a new Deus Ex title. Who knows though, this universe has people who are constantly working on it.

maybe cyberpunk will bring the series back on track

it cannot; deus ex > Blade runner!

We need a deus ex movie starring Christian bale as JC and Oscar Isaac as Adam

Love is relative. Attachment and affinity yes but that's about it. Think of Master chief and Cortana. Jensen and eliza are something like that

​@@lechain9708spot on, it's the entire reason they're inseparable and highly effective. Their circumstances were never normal to begin with

@@lechain9708 Good enough

It was the only side quest I missed on my first playthrough... Couldn't believe it.

@@panterxbeats yep, same for me

I gotta check and see how i missed this side quest. I usually meticular about finding and completing all side quests and things in this game since most, if not all have an impact throughout the game

@@danielburch824 same

How u get the quest then, i put off this game for so long, dont wanna miss it

Megan made him retract them - and she backstabbed him big time. He never retracts them again EXCEPT for Eliza.

he retracted them when Miller was dying.

...and since Miller is gay. Could Jensen be bi?

No I think it was just because they were friends and the dude was gonna die without the Orchid antidote. It'd be awkward for him to leave his shades on the whole time.

Well maybe Miller and Jensen weren't friends (at least not until the end of MD depending on if Jensen saves him or not), but they were college's who respected one another.

You're in love with Ai? You're dense.

@@thebufoon Shove off

lol, Same here. I was thinking WTF happened with Eliza? I though we had it sorted out in the last game. And then in mankind divided, she was spewing propaganda and lies.. I'm just re-playing the game, and found out that it's actually explained (to some extent)

in Mankind Divided the Eliza we are seeing is not the Eliza we seen and talked to in human revolution, the real Eliza is free and is trying to make her way to Adam which this aspect of the real Eliza mentioned "Eliza is trying to find her way to you Adam" Plus the Eliza we see in mankind divided as mentioned is not the real eliza and is just a copy. The real Eliza didn't mention negative or fearful feelings of Augs

Theri4444 I recently just got into Deus Ex. I dont mind spoilers...so do we find the real Eliza in this game? I have to know lol I was drawn to her character for some reason she seems interesting

mram3610 The Eliza here is the "real" Eliza from the last game, who openly defied the Illuminati at the end of Human Revolution.

Picus were anti-aug during Human Revolution too, they were just more subtle about it.

Same

"That connection is severed. She is not the original her. You, of course, are familiar with this kind of process." How did this NOT set off red flags in Jensen's mind? Also remember the trailer name... Jensen 2.0!

Jenson was never a man who shared his feelings, it would also set alarm bells ringing for janus.

5 years later: "...the next installment." still echoing through the ether

​@@Oshaoxin we can still hope

@@Fertile_Programnot really hope since insiders at Eidos Montreal have confirmed that they are developing the next Deus Ex game. Embracer is having financial issues but we have not been told anything to contradict that little piece of information we were given. It's a matter of when at this point, not if. I'm expecting a trailer within the next 2 years. Possible release in 2027

So true. Its sad to think the sidequests have more interesting things about it in comparison to the main plot.

Not true, you were not paying needed attention, the question persists is Adam Jensen the one from Human Revolution or clone made for resistance infiltration

@Mohammed also not, there are many facts confirming it but not 100% and it was intentionally made that way, for me it would be great if current adam was a clone and plot of next dx could involve adam jensen 1.0 original one from human revolution now fighting with himself adam jensen 2.0

@@k.podbielski9666 If I take the book to consideration, this Adam is our Adam, not the clone. But the clone still exists somewhere, active.

Main plot is great too.

They said that the absolutely changed the game. First Deus Ex and Invisible War is alternative reality now, only some characters staying same

Wow100500 please source this. I fell out after HR but at least back then, it was all the same universe.

U know what? FUCK IT. For Eliza I hope they REWRITE the DX1 story. There. I said it. Fuck Daedalus.

Reboot is a possibility. It becomes increasingly difficult to connect DE:HR and DE:MD to the original DE with all those new characters that are being introduced (yes I know there is the "kill them all" solution, but I'm a talking about a sane solution to this problem). For example, what is Eidos gonna say about Megan Reed? She went full Illuminati (we all know that she's gonna be revealed to be JC Denton's "creator") then suddenly decided to retire just before DE?

I kind of wish they could just ignore the original Deus Ex timeline and do their own thing. I'm more invested in the Jensen story than I am the original Deus Ex timeline anyway. Though I think if the went that route they'd just piss off alot of fans of the original.

agreed

it did go somewere later on in the game ur get a info link call from her and she will blow shit up to help u get pass the cops in the later part of the game

SirPhoenixBlood Still wasn't really relevant

that's pretty much because the plot is not over yet.

SirPhoenixBlood I got detected beacuse of that...

Well there's evidence to suggest that this Adam Jensen is just a clone of the real one (who is actually dead) and he is also AI. So Eliza is actually hinting that they are the same now.

And I was like "hello, my beautiful innocent angel, I still remember how you helped me with the boss fight"

Adam Jensen died in Panchea. The "Adam Jensen" we're playing as in 'Mankind Divided' is a clone. The memories of the original Adam Jensen were transferred over to the clone. That's what this bit of dialogue at 4:44 means. This can be verified in the Versalife vault, where there are some boxes stacked in one corner, with a little tiny window on top of it. You can see the torso of a corpse inside, and if you illuminate it with an EMP grenade, you'll see that the face is Adam Jensen.

All they need to do is to survive up to the end of the Invisible War, when the Alex Denton helps Paul and JC-Helios to execute their plan and give the entire world unity of an unprecedented scale. Afterwards, Alex and Eliza (and aunt Farida, I guess) are good to go.

Except that this "machine" is waifuable

@@raddox7 i am kinda late but you right xd

Or is just a nod to that Adam has implanted memories and urges that aren't truly his just like current TV Eliza has different urges and memories than the version from Panchea. If the body from Palisade vault is truly of original Adam then her quote of coexisting with other versions doesn't make much sense because you know, his other version ceased to exist. Not to mention that Eidos considers Deus Ex Bible as canon lore and in it having a grown up clone in span of 2 years isn't possible untill at least 2052.

Or the body in the vault could be the clone. We dont know for sure

@@locksmith4707 Deus Ex Bible canon means original Paul Denton was born ready in 2028

@daniiNL I mentioned the body in the vault in my comment. Read more carefully. But other than since then I catched a lot of other stuff that makes clone theory implausible so I'll copy it there. To start of, successful flash cloning is impossible, at least at this point in the timeline because when JC (DX1) was cloned he was born and grew up to adulthood like a normal human being (JC is born same year Mankind Divided's events take place). Illuminati having cloned Jensen way before is also heavily unlikely because everything related to Adam in White Helix Labs got burned to the ground and Illuminati had no knowledge of Adam before events of HR (there is entire side quest in HR dedicated to Illuminati's goons trying to learn more about Jensen and his past which is really baffling if they have clones of his kept in storage). Also their entire attack on Sarif HQ plan and biochip research that was the main point of HR's plot would make absolutely no sense whatsoever if they had access to every material they needed years before. Another possible argument for cloning is early Universal Constructor, possibly in facility Adam was transported to after Aug Incident as some people suggest. But that's a stretch too because making JC to be born normally, prepare artificially a specific environment for him to grow up in for you to have a loyal, dependable asset is irrational when at least 1-2 years earlier you could make a fully functioning clone that accepts augs like crazy out of thin air, implant him with memories and psychological conditioning that makes him a dependable asset nearly instantly. If it was because they needed to wait for nanoaugmentations to get into desirable state then why not create JC at that moment and implant him with fake memories rather than going in with that costly and time consuming shit of killing his parents, getting him to certain schools, monitoring him for all these years and so on? Another thing also related to UC argument is Dentonian Timeline from design documents of DX1 (www.nanoaugur.net/dx/bible/) that Eidos bases lore of their games on. It goes like this: - 2018: Paul Denton born - 2023: Paul, age 5, selected as test subject, cloned - 2028: Tests on clones show limited success; Paul's mother impregnated with J.C. - 2029: J.C. Denton born; scientists perfect embryonic incubator; additional clones grown over the next 15-20 years - 2034: Experiments begin on second generation of clones (~age 5)... If they had access to UC around 2029 then why didn't they construct Paul's clones for experimentation with it instead of the JC way of waiting years for them to grow a bit? Sounds really... stupid. People cling to DX1 plot inconsistency where various NPCs tell us that he had family, he grew up and so on and in Area51 there are cloning vats (some rooms before Page taunts Denton about his parents so...) but so far lore of Eidos DX games is consistent with Deus Ex Bible making going that route highly unlikely. Paul's birthdate is officially 2018 as in DX Bible too. But even if we go the vat-clone route, on inspection JC's statis directly states that his incept date is 2054 which is impossible as game takes place in 2052. Morpheus AI knows that JC is cloned and straight up tells him that he is 23 years old, no reason for it to lie to him about his age. If Paul and JC had memory implants like Jensen then it would be really stupid for Mj12 to include memories where they both suspected that JC was engineered organism rather than being Paul's natural brother like they intended. Another clue people grasp at is Mystery Augs side quest but we can see in aug menu that basic augs have Sarif logo on them, in Black Light when he wakes up he recognizes his augs and damage they sustained during events of HR instantly. Sarif's "bla bla in Adam Jensen did" line is nothing more than a suggestion that no one bothered to check them because they knew exactly who they are dealing with and nod that TITAN augs installed in him have no identification. Which he pretty much confirms if you ask him further about it. Other clues involve Eliza and her talk about coexistence with other versions of ourselves but since the talk was given in context of memory (current Picus Eliza has no memories, desires and urges that original one has). Better yet other side quest touches on it. Richard from Cult of Personality side quest blatantly tells lines such as "Allow me to suggest something - a version of you. A version that strips away all suspicions, free of the sinister selves we cling to along the way", "they [cultists] have found a better version of themselves..." and some other ones. In Harvester side quest Daria Myska also talks about different version of herself. It all leans more into mind alteration thing rather than cloning. In Prague there is a magic shop called Negozio di Magia in which is a fortune teller machine that after paying 250 credits says one of several lines. One of these lines is "Some version of you is perfect. You are not her". Notice the 'her' in it, it can't be clone. Add earlier paragraph of the talk about versions to it. It is kind of far-reaching speculation but if MD Adam is a fresh clone with implanted memories of original one with some bonus ones added to it then wouldn't that be strange that he is able to sense that something is not right, that some memories seem alien to him in Black Light novel and kind of in Criminal Past? If anything all memories should seem alien to him or not a single one should because all of them are implanted. So in light of all that Adam being a clone would be one of the biggest asspulls in the history of asspulls, maybe ever. Thank you for coming to my TED talk. One thing that remains is body in vault but to be honest it could be anything. Notice that it is purposefully made hard to see what the heck it really is without using 3rd party programs or glitches. But ignoring all that, the body might be failed attempt at flash cloning, it might be a decoy ready to be deployed in case Jensen's mission is compromised and Illuminati need to hijack him, some kind of lab grown 'living' material left for study (after all Jensen's medical capabilities are still valuable which Orchid and aug testing shows) while the 'donor' is on his mission to neutralize Janus. Anyway in light of what's above MD Jensen being functioning clone or the thing in vault being a functioning clone/original one is very unlikely.

I don’t think the Adam we play as is a clone. I think his body was cloned/used to allow for further experimentation. Pity well never know

Sort of! In the secret Picus Vault you can find an Email between Bob Page and Morgan Everette saying that Eliza was based off of the Morpheus Project. Just Google "Deus Ex Morpheus" if that doesn't ring any bells. Morpheus does tell JC that he's a Prototype of a Larger system, obviously referencing the Daedalus and Icarus AI's.

Fleet Wing How do you get the key card for the picus vault? Does it have anything to do with Otar or the Dvali?

Nope! Have you done the Rainbow Swan Quest? Look for the "Libuse Apartments", and on the left side you'll find an apartment with a Rainbow Swan logo on the door. Don't go in there, but go into the apartment ABOVE the Rainbow Swan, and you'll find the keycard behind a painting on the wall.

Fleet Wing Thanks bro.

As in Eliza is the Daedalus; to Adam's Icarus? I could see that.

Thanks.

@@JesusChristDenton_7 No problem, Adam Jensen, protagonist from the video game Deus Ex: Human Revolution released in 2011 and Deus Ex: Mankind Divided with an initial release year in 2016. 🙂👍

Haters: How do they have sex? Jurassic Park: Life....finds a way....

I ship Eliza and Adam and especially when this aspect of Eliza says "Eliza is trying to get back with you" or something along those lines. That to me I want to say is romantically interested. Plus Adam can go into the AI's world and then Eliza and Adam can get it on

Daniel von Strangle she ded. Seriously though... Human Revolution can be stupid hard in its set pieces and boss fight for no reason if you go full stealth...

You can hear it in the voiceacting too.

3:18 how he retract his glasses, his face...

Or perhaps the the Adam of the past. Not necessarily the real one. Just the fact that we change as time goes by.

4:40 "She is not the original her. *You, of course, are familiar with this kind of process.* "

I think it depends on how many MiBs you spared.

That explains it. I spared no one, except the "store owner" MiB they wanted dead.

***** Could be a bug.

Store guy left me alone after I convinced him to hand over the disc reader in dialogue. Didn't show up with the rest of the goons.

I had four

Let's hope she and Adam were able to find a safe place to live (crack mode: Moon Base Omega) and lived through the Collapse and (if they were lucky and Alex Denton supported two other Dentons in their actions) then become even more close, as JC-Helios helped others to reach the same level of man-machine integration.

Morpheus in Everett's lab is probably based on her, probably is her!

@@compwiz00 what if she is Daedalus? An AI would not be "male" or "female" only.

No it's a 700MB Zip Disk.

100MB, if I remember correctly. At least, the most popular version of Zip disk.

@@pmarreck 700MB versions existed but they came later, if HR and MD are near present-day tech then it would be a 700MB Zip Disk. Although it's still a bit of a stretch putting A.I. on a 700MB Zip. I think the devs just wanted something that looked familiar and a Zip Disk was what came to mind.

The data is using an insane compression algorithm lol

He can’t be a clone bro. More like a double agent. In the beginning of mankind divided you can hear the line “activate the sleeper cell..” and you see Adam waking up on the train in a reboot kind of way, with Doctor Delara (before they even met) sleeping on his shoulder. Plus in the storyline Mysterious Augs. Adam has no recollection of how he got the experimental augmentations. Even David sarif was like nah son I put in what your dead girlfriend wanted me to put in you. You could say Adam is sorta like a catalyst for the Illuminati without him knowing it. He fans the already lit flames for them. Just ask yourself this. How did he survive the orchid? Coincidence? I like to believe that when Elisa said “a version of you” she meant software. Because she can’t describe/know the human soul. The “version software” Adam was “running” on was his own rouge self when he went to panchea, Singapore and Montreal against the wishes of the Illuminati and maybe that’s why she fell in love with him.

@@rx-0862 Well he survived the orchid because of the experiments the White Helix did on him when he was a child. That's also what makes it so his body doesn't reject augmentations. Anyways you could be right, but honestly it seems like they've just been slowly controlling his life and giving him every reason to do what they need him to do.

At some point of the story it can be triggered by approaching the advertisement sign which has some kind of a glitch. The best side mission in my opinion.

I never got to speak to Eliza either and I took the completionist approach to this game

It's a side quest I got it from a glitchy advertisement/map and that initiates the quest the second time back at Prague. I'm not sure if you can get it any other way.

Keep looking at the electronic map billboards. If you hear a voice from them saying,'01011000 ' over and over go and interact with it.'The 'Glitch' is the first clue of this mission.

hi, there. It's been 6 months so I dunno if you found the solution, so I'll answer.Look at the electronic billboards. with the map and movie ads on them.They start to glitch out and a voice starts saying '01011000 '. A quest marker will pop up called 'the Glitch'. Follow the source of the glitch as per instructed and y ou'll find her.

During the second visit of Prague, some ads pannels in the streets will glitch. Clicking on them will start the 01011000 mission.
