It saddens me that big companies like Square Enix have such outragously high expectations while forcing the game to be split and adding microtransactions. Apparently Mankind Divided was supposed to be bigger but SE wanted to make it two seperate games and divided the team in half. And the the Breach was only included cus they thought the single player campaign would get "too stale" for the audience and have something else for us to do. Sort of like how some game devs forced multiplayer on shooters. The microtransactions were also last minute additions enforced by SE.

From what I remember this is more to do with the European branch of SE forcing these decisions. It left a bitter taste in a lot of devs mouths when making the game.

I love Deux Ex for its atmosphere and lore. I hope that this isn't the last we see of it but I also hope if we do see it again it'll be treated properly.
