Borderlands 2 vs Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
Borderlands 2
Borderlands 2 is the highly anticipated sequel to the popular first game, Borderlands. This time around, the game brings a whole different storyline, starring the charismatic and cunning but equally as whacky CEO of Hyperion, Handsome Jack as the villain. Featuring all new characters/vault hunters and classes, you'll get to dive, once again, into the world of Pandora. Armed with more weapons that you can use, you're hell-bent on exacting your revenge on Jack and will shoot-down any enemy creature or people alike that stand in your way. There are even more loot to be had too - there are shields, grenades, relics, class mods and more for you to loot and then use to augment your character.If you love Borderlands, you'll love Borderlands 2 even more! It has been dubbed as the best game in the series mainly because of the huge amount of innovation it brings and this is a sentiment that we express as well... sorry Borderlands: The Pre-sequel! If you get the chance, you should really check this game out!
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided
Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is the highly anticipated sequel in the Deus Ex franchise. The game is very similar to its predecessors in many ways - you still get to make important, story-changing decisions, meet some interesting characters, have fun with a wide range of augments, and enjoy an amazing stealth-based gameplay. That said, it does have some unique aspects like overloading your augs, though personally, I don't bother to use it; and also the revamped hacking system. I also like the game's loading screen when you're supposedly travelling from one location to another. It's a very nice touch.However, many fans are rather disappointed with the story and side missions in this game. Some are pretty good and well-fleshed out admittedly, but many of them seem to not have any effect on the game or the storyline itself... like mere fillers. Most of the characters that you meet in this game is a lot less important than before as well.
Apparently, the game was also cut down to meet the launch deadline, and this makes the game feel incomplete to some extent. Although this game seems to fall short for many fans of the game, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is still a pretty good sequel especially for players who are in for the action and well, part of the storyline. For the other part, you'll just have to wait for its DLCs.
