Deus Ex devs say they weren't trying to make a statement when they made one of the most political games of all time: 'What I think is the right future for humanity is irrelevant. It's all about what each player thinks'

A cabal of billionaires unleashing an artificial plague to further immiserate and exploit the underclass, but not in a political way.

You kids don’t remember, but back then there was no politics in vidja gams.

    My head canon is that the albino version of JC (and thus also Paul, your ‘brother’) is potentially more true to the… experimental nature of JC’s origin… but that is just my head canon.

    Whoops, first batch had too many expressed recessive genes, something like that.

    It also works as an ‘explanation’ as to why the entire game manages to take place at night: JC would otherwise get sunburned and/or need a melanin/UV protection augmentation, hahaha!
