I got it for free from Steam. :D

Yea it isn't a perfect game and has some problems but I would still give it a try.

I really enjoyed it when I bought it at full price when it came out. They might have made some changes to even the difficulty out.

I just bought it. I'm not necessarily sure why, but if anything I did like the way the game looked (visually) during the quicklook. Nice and grungy and bleak and dull.

I actually bought it a few weeks ago. :)

Its far from the best game I've played this year- but it was pretty enjoyable. :D

A general description of my experience with it so far:

Pros:

• Satisfying RPG/Character development elements
• Servicable Combat
• Mostly consistent difficulty- with one major exception. (Listed in cons)
• Serviceable non-linear level design

Cons:

• Inconsistent AI
• Non-linearity mostly disappears starting at the Mars level.
• Level design also takes a bit of a dip in quality at Mars onwards.
• Clunky Interface
• A hefty difficulty spike at Mars.
• Story is all over the place: involving all sorts of underdeveloped/barely utilized aspects
• Bad translation
• Graphics are well below par.

In short: it's a bit of a flawed experience- definitely not for everyone. But it was all stuff I was able to look past for the combat and character building elements. :)

I liked it well enough to definitely consider doing a second playthrough at some point... Especially since I haven't been able to try the co-op yet. :D

Is it any less unplayably broken/obtuse than the last time I saw it? No?

... Well, it was nice knowing everybody, I guess.

Is it still broken? In my experience no, its not unplayably broken. :)

Insidiously Obtuse? Well... I can't deny that. :P

How unbalanced have people been saying the difficulty was? As I mentioned above, the only major spike I encountered was at the Mars level. It was certainly a hefty difficulty spike- but it wasn't insurmountable (Even for my melee-focused build). The difficulty remained around that level after the spike- if anything it actually became a little easier after Mars and never really rose again.

it's got 4 different endings from what i've read, but last i checked nobody actually knew how to get the 4th

But I don't know if I'll ever play it and my CC is kinda empty right now!

It's 2,49€ in Europe. I had ice cream today that was more expensive. 
Buy it now or I will dig up your corpses, rearrange your bones in a funny way and bury you again.

lol you don't seem in the right mood for Christmas...

It's that broken ass Deus-Ex like game right? Then no.

I'll pay you $9 to shut up. Then you can buy three copies of the game, give them to whoever the fuck you want, and everybody's happy.

I considered it, but my mood is soured by the fact that it is AvP instead of AvP2 that is also on-sale, so now I hate the world and may even die for my beliefs.

I will say it again, game is better than deus ex,

Maybe I should do a lets play? 

I did, but I bought Rage at the same time. What do you think of me now?

I'd love to buy it. But the only currency I have right now is 3 lumps of coal and 2 useless coupons.

Confirming I bought the game, looks awesome and weird. Will check it out later

If you've got Coal, people on SPUF are willing to give copies of this game for about 4-5 Coal. I got mine for 3!

Fine, okay, great job you jerk. Now I bought another random game off Steam, are you happy now?

I've been waiting for the right time to get this. I doesn't get any better than 75% off and a gift achievement.

It doesn't matter how many times you say it. It won't make it true.

yes it will, I wrote a blog on the subject if you care to peruse it

edit; at least EYE is not horribly racist

@Animasta: @laserbolts: It definitely dosent play better or look better, it definitely has more bugs. Perhaps it has a better plot and is more interesting than Deus Ex. It is not a better game.

I would in fact argue that it does play better, because EYE does not have shitty boss fights, it has a multitude of all valid combat roles (the correct thing in DX was stealth and fuck you if you don't like stealth), it does not have a really really bad ending, it has more weapons, it's faster, you can jump 30 feet in the air

Wow...just wow. You really did it. You got me to buy this.

I'm so easily manipulated :(

Ah, Lord British! Trying to save Britania once again I see. Where is your Avatar now? Muh ha ha ha ha!

I bought 3 copies and gave 2 to friends. ARE YOU HAPPY NOW. Also this game has boobs.

If this game is better than Deus Ex then Saints Row 3 is better than GTA IV.

In other words there is really no comparison and I've made a pointless analogy.

To summarise, this game is terrible and you shouldn't buy it.

lots of people would say yes to that last thing so I don't know what point you're trying to make (SR3 is miles better than GTAIV sorry)

@Animasta: My point is that alot of people are really dumb.

Edit: Also I can't string sentences correctly

@Praab_NZ said:

such as you, who can't post correctly (edit this is also why you should make sure to post right the first time :)

but seriously, saying EYE is dumber than deus ex is just not true. SR3 is dumber than GTA yes, but EYE is not dumb, it is just unique; I think it's better than deus ex but I know most people would disagree, but meh. EYE was a lot more interesting than DX in a lot of ways, as well as being less... you can tell the EYE team made the game they wanted to fucking make, for better or worse.

@Animasta: I'm not saying the game is dumber, it's actually more complex. It's just an objectively worse game.

And yeah you're right in that it is unique and that's the draw, I had fun in it before I could no longer look past the bugs, the terrible UI, the lack of direction, average graphics, and bad storytelling.

Not to mention the terrible gunplay and even worse melee. There is just a great level of unpolishedness which is why I couldn't recommend anyone buy this game.

how can you say it has terrible gunplay and then say DX does it better, I mean I fucking hated shooting every fucking time in that game.

@Animasta: Deus Ex does the whole experience better is what I was getting at, they both have similarly terrible gunplay and melee.

To see another game make practically the same error of design ~10 years later is pretty astounding actually.

Nope. Come at me bro!

@Praab_NZ: saints row is better than gta, thanks for convincing me to buy this game :)

@LordXavierBritish: You forgot to mention that the game has no story to speak of.

it totally does! it is just incomprehensible.

THERE IS A DIFFERENCE.

Nope. Come at me bro!

E.Y.E. is one of the worst games I've had the unfortunate experience of playing. Even the title is awful. What the fuck is "divine cybermancy"?

I bought it, I'll play it later

Gives me a Last Bronx vibe from the poor translation.

I'm excited to try it out tomorrow!

It is done, Lord British

Awwww shucks there goes my family ):
