And that's more than likely why Embracer isn't bothering. In the land of Triple Ehh, if it isn't going to make all the money, it isn't good enough. So glad all those IP got sold off, they risked being ignored...

The irony of putting corporate enshittification in a game that has a story loosely about the evils of capitalism (and the illuminati i guess) and the fans of that kind of story reacting appropriately to it is pretty fucking funny tho.

Eh personally Deus Ex is one of my favourite games of all time but none of the subsequent games interested me because they were much less freeform. Unless Warren Spector decides to do one himself I don't think the series has much value to older gamers like myself, and I suspect they've probably done the analysis to suggest that the mainstream audience will be more receptive to whatever kind of thing is popular right now.
