A Deus Ex game will ultimately come down to how well it is written and how well it's designed. I can live with cover system and I can live with fps-centric focus, but give me good writing like the original. Lotsa player-empowering options, lotsa explorable paths, lotsa NPCs with well-written, in-character, humanizing dialogues and interactive readables.
That's A DEUS EX game.
