The smarter path would be to just admit this "prequal" was a reboot and that sequals to human revolution replace the original older games rather than exist within the same timeline

This would give them the freedom to continue Adam's storyline as they see fit and later replace the deus ex and invisible war time periods with games and stories that fit the new version
