tempted to pick these up, always saw trailers as a kid but never played them. anyone that can rec/give their opinions on them? would appreciate it
They're among my favorite games. Be aware though that they planned to make another, but it was cancelled, so the ending for DX:MD isn't very satisfying.
I definitely recommend them to anyone who likes playing first-person shooters with role-playing elements. Stealth and non-lethal combat options are available. (I'm a big fan of sneaking up behind guards, knocking them out, and dragging them behind cover while no others are looking.) Also these games usually provide multiple paths to objectives and reward players for exploring. And by choosing a stealth approach, you can sometimes hear conversations between minor characters which you would otherwise miss.
If you have any questions, let me know.
P.S. For whatever it's worth, these take place before the original Deus Ex, which is excellent, although somewhat dated, and the widely criticized Deus Ex: Invisible War (which I enjoy despite it's faults).
