BioShock vs Deus Ex: The Fall
BioShock
BioShock is one of the most highly acclaimed steampunk-themed shooters that has a very interesting twist - your very character's DNA can be modified through the use of a selection of plasmids and a special resource called ADAM, allowing you to have superhuman abilities which will serve you well, sometimes more so than the weapon you wield, in your adventure through the fallen underwater city of Rapture. Aside from the many violent mad men (a.k.a. Splicers), the game also provides players with challeging encounters with the iconic Big Daddies and Little Sisters.When it comes to non-military-styled shooters with an intensely immersive storyline, BioShock is among the handful of the "best of the best" (which includes the Fallout series, the Borderlands series, the Deus Ex series and others). The game boasts of having a rather dark storyline that actually challenges you to think about it in a more in-depth way; to link all the clues together to get the complete narrative that is surprisingly a lot more engaging that you'd expect.
2K Games has just released the remastered version of the very first Bioshock last year and if you can get it on Steam, you really should. The very unique experience it can offer you is very well worth the cost.
Deus Ex: The Fall
Deus Ex: The Fall is a mobile spin-off (but now it's available on PC, Steam specifically) of the brilliant Deus Ex franchise. However, as you might have expect from a mobile game/port, Deus Ex: The Fall is incredibly basic with very limited controls. You'll still get to play the way you like whether to go into combat head-on or stealthily, but it's just not as exciting or impactful (as claimed).The background for the story in this game is somewhat all right I suppose. The game casts you into the role of Ben Saxon, a former British SAS-turned-mercenary with military-grade augments who is desperate to find out the truth behind the drug conspiracy involving the very drug that all augmented humans need to survive. However, many of the events that are supposed to push the story forward seems to fall short of doing exactly that, making these events rather meaningless. Unlike the non-spin-off games, the decisions you make in the game, however few they may be, doesn't feel important enough either. The game ends with somewhat of a cliffhanger, hinting at a sequel that will probably never come.
Deus Ex: The Fall may be a rather decent for a relatively unknown mobile game, but for a franchise as huge as Deus Ex, this game just seems to disappoint everyone. It's not a free-to-play either so if you saved up to buy this game, you might want to continue to save a bit more to get the other Deus Ex games (not the second game though) instead.
