Sorry, I refuse to interact with people who have unpronounceable usernames.
What's the matter with my username??? It can be pronounced (proof is (
http://youtube.com/watch?v=UbggVTZygi4) here), it's just question of intention. Try it and if you fail, i will recommend to visit a speech terapist. However i'm sure you will succeed; after all, you're not Neo from The matrix, or
have you no mouth, and must you scream?
Otherwise no problem, at least i won't afraid of your famous (or infamous) flames in the future.
EDIT: Only critics I accept is about my spelling and/or contents of my posts.

The cathedral is the best level in the game. If there's a better one, I can't think of it.
Long-range sniping, roof-hopping with the jump aug, cryptic play-on-thief atmosphere - it's got it all.

Aww, I really like the underwater base. It's always fun for me. I don't care who "cites" it - it's fun! (Different strokes and all...)

Almost absurdly linear, not much of interest going on, and generally a failure to build on the creepy premise (and music). It's pretty frequently cited as one of the worst levels of Deus Ex. The catacombs are better, albeit not a lot better. Maybe it's just that they're short.
...The Cathedral is IMO pretty cool. :angel:
I think whole Deus Ex is quite linear after HongKong. OceanLab has got a great atmosphere at least. I really enyojed it! (It is one of my favourit levels, however Hell's Kitchen and Hong Kong Canal&Tonnochi road is unbeatable.) [interesting architecture, great music, and even the "premised but failed" creepyness adds on a unique atmosphere] Worst is Area 51 for me. That level is a great ammount of boring and frustration.
EDIT: Paris maps were disappointment too, Paris is a city like NY or HK, but there the links between maps are linear. And have level designers ever heard about molding? The houses in Paris have not a single frieze!

Repeated studies conducted by an elite team of scientists on the TTLG Staff Board have come to the conclusion that invariably having a username that cannot be pronounced without reading off individual characters is a sign of having an IQ under fifty.
By the way, Hegemonia was fail.

You will invariably be known as "that person with the unpronouncable name full of numbers". Just look at BRNumbers.
And I played Haegamonia briefly. Awfully uninteresting game. Hardly worth naming yourself after.
What's meant to be so wrong with the Ocean Lab anyway?
ZylonBane on 27/4/2008 at 20:32
The problem with Ocean Lab is that it's clearly unfinished. Even if we didn't have outside knowledge that it was intended as a riff on Citadel Station, there are several in-game messages that refer to a malfunctioning AI running the lab. But there isn't one. All we're left with is a linear set of maps with lots of greasels, lots of swimming, and uninspired level design. The whole thing is just a big ball of Deus Ex's weakest elements.

I really don't see what's wrong with the cathedral though, I thought that was one of the best levels in the game.

I kept expecting Brother Sodding Murus to pop out from a manhole and send me on some lunatic quest to fetch his slippers for him.
