[[File:2027_8721.jpg|frame]]
A [[Game Mod]] and fan prequel to the 2000 game ''[[Deus Ex (Video Game)|Deus Ex]]'' that was released in September 2011.
 
Daniel, a mechanically augmented [[Hired Guns|mercenary]], is set to infiltrate Human Horizon, a biotech firm in [[Washington DC]]. What appears to be a simple data heist mission ends up going awry when Daniel hacks a computer and, just before blacking out, has a mysterious computer bot infiltrate his mind.
Line 20:
* [[Arms Dealer]]: Boris and Evgeny in Moscow, and an unseen person who will deal with you only over the phone. Generally, this is a primary way of getting weapons and ammo (mostly ammo) besides finding either one stashed away in hidden corners or snagging them off dead or unconscious NPCs.
* [[Artificial Limbs]]: Nano-augmentation is still on the drawing boards at the time of ''2027'', so all augmentations, including yours, are still mechanical. In terms of gameplay, they work just like the augmentations in vanilla ''DX'', except augs like the leg prosthesis will make a mechanical whirring sound when active.
* [[Backstory]]: Subverted. The game does seem like an fan interpretation of the early days of the Omar, but {{spoiler|1=the Vladimir ending seems to suggest that this Omar is different from what is seen in ''[[Deus Ex: Invisible War (Video Game)|Invisible War]]'', as it mentions that the order falls apart and is later resurrected in the same city that the official canon states it began. Not to mention that unlike in ''IW'', the Omar are not a [[Hive Mind]], and are more or less just ultra-serious survivalists.}}
* [[Badass Longcoat]]: Daniel's attire.
* [[Blind Idiot Translation]]: Early versions of the English version had this, since the game was originally in Russian. The Judicians latin is still this.
Line 30:
* [[EMP]]: Along with the EMP grenades from the original game, you also have access to an EMP field aug, which disables all electronics in a small radius around you. {{spoiler|Magnus also has this aug, which disables any grenades or rockets in his area.}}
* [[Everybody Smokes]]: Cigarettes and matches are scattered everywhere about the game world.
* [[Fascists' Bed Time]]: Moscow in the game. If the police or bots catch anyone out at night, they'll shoot to kill.
* [[Fighting Your Friend]]: {{spoiler|Magnus}}, if you tell him that you are going to give the Amrita to the Omar, or {{spoiler|when you meet up with him at Mt. Weather, and you have lied to him about being at the Human Horizon building and what you did with the Amrita.}}
* [[Game Mod]]
Line 52:
** {{spoiler|Destroy Thanatos and merge with Titan to protect the world from corrupt influences.}}
** {{spoiler|Become an Omar and nuke the world, allowing the Omar to become the new dominant species.}}
* [[Nanotechnology]]: Since this is set before ''[[Deus Ex (Video Game)|Deus Ex]]'', it is all experimental at this point. The health augmentation utilizes it, along with a few other technologies.
* [[Nintendo Hard]]: Weapons have a much higher recoil than in the base game, and on the hardest difficulties, almost any weapon can one-shot kill you, even at full health.
* [[Only One Name]]: Daniel's, and Xander's last names are not mentioned.
Line 63:
* [[Social Darwinist]]: The Omar, so much to a point that they are {{spoiler|willing to plunge the world into a nuclear war in order to weed out the weak.}}
* [[Story-Driven Invulnerability]]: Averted and played straight. While you can kill major characters at different points of the game, characters like Xander are invincible, and others are in nightclubs, which in order to enter, you have to leave your weapons at the door.
* [[Take That]]: A subtle one to ''[[Deus Ex: Human Revolution (Video Game)|Human Revolution]]''. One newspaper will mention that there are other media companies besides Picus, which was the only company seen in ''Human Revolution''.
* [[Talking Your Way Out]]: A Human Horizon agent in Paris will stop you if you run into him in Paris. You can lie and say that you are not Daniel, and he'll go on his merry way. Being honest though, will have predictable results. {{spoiler|Although it is best not to meet the agent at all, as talking to him will result in an ambush outside the Paris labs.}}
* [[Unwinnable Byby Design]]: It is impossible to get to Moscow in time and meet the Omars, before they head off to Mount Weather. Which means that the only way to Not get a mission failed in your record is to get rid of the Omar.
* [[Unwinnable Byby Insanity]]/[[Unwinnable By Mistake]]: In Moscow, if you kill all of the major characters that can be killed and if you are shy of multitools before completing the Police Network mission, you'll get stuck, or if you kill major characters that can be killed and end up with not enough money to get into the nightclub.
* [[Voice Withwith an Internet Connection]]: Your friend and trusty pilot Xander, and Titan, although other characters may fill this role depending on the mission.
* [[War for Fun Andand Profit]]: In the {{spoiler|Omar ending, Evgeny sells weapons to both sides of the global war that results after the nuclear attack.}}
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: An entity known as Majestic will give this to you if you slaughter the cloaked soldiers at Mt. Weather, and you will get this from different factions if you start doing missions that are in direct competition with their goals. Magnus will give this to you if you are dishonest (or brutally honest at one point) to him throughout the game.
* [[Where Are They Now? Epilogue]]: After each ending you'll read small bits and pieces of characters you met throughout the game and what became of them, depending on your choices.
