Well you got cigarettes and booze in SS2 too, so we weren't that confused... It seems zyme disappeared between Deus Ex's time and 2114, though...

Tell you what, to get some DX players in on the subject I'll copy the thread to DX Gen too :)

Actually, I kind of wonder why he coughs at all, maybe because he smokes the entire cigarette in one breath, but really, you don't cough after you've gotten used to a few. Although, if you make him smoke a lot, then he should develop a smoker's cough so he'll cough randomly throughout the game. THAT would add some suspense, I bet.
Then you could even have a cough suppression meter, where you have to furiously press spacebar as fast as you can whenever a coughing fit happens. That would be cool.
