...and I like it pretty well. I thought the first part (Dubai) was really weak, but it did the job as a tutorial. I agree that the pyramid scheme and the breach stuff is silly, but it isn't intrusive, so can be ignored.
I thought that David Sarif looks like a guy who aged 15 years in the last two. It seems fitting after all the crap he did to manipulate people.
Prague looks pretty nice. I'm playing on a Geforce GTX 770 and I seem to do fine as far as framerate and stuff. I just left the settings as default.
The only thing I turned way down was the music. I'm playing stealthy and having music blasting in my ears seems goofy.
Still hate the hacking mini game and it didn't really change.
Another thing that is fun, but breaks immersion, is selling weapons in the middle of a battle. At one point you'll be in a bookstore that is full of baddies. I would knock several guys out, fill up my inventory with their weapons, walk down the road 3 or 4 blocks, sell the weapons and then walk back. Since you can't carry two of the same weapon type, selling them one at a time is necessary to maximize profit. I was able to buy a praxis kit (10,000) from just that quest.
Remote hacking seems vital, but it is the only new aug that I've taken. I don't have the falling aug yet and forgot that a few times and jumped off buildings...splat! Jensen will die from a two-story fall. I've fallen from two stories myself, and I ended up with a badly sprained foot. I guess weighing half a ton can mess you up.
I'm headed off to HQ to check in with my boss. I've got several side quests to follow up on too. So far I've fired my tranq rifle about 5 times. Everything else has been Q-key knockout.
