Game designer at Square Enix, Francois Lapikas, has been talking Deus Ex: Human Revolution at GDC. We love that game. Tom even awarded it an outstanding 94%
Unexpectedly, some of the design team agree. Francois has offered a sincere apology for the four bosses that featured in Human Revolution.
“We didn't know what they were for. We saw them as a way to break the tension,” admitted the dev. But the fights weren't designed until well into the game development and the team were pressed for time. “We figured by putting in enough ammo in the room, we would be fine and could move on... next time we'll think about them more. They were a big part of the game and we should have put more effort into them. We are truly sorry about that."
Aww. Now I feel a bit sad too. How did you get on with the bosses in Deus Ex: Human Revolution?
