I haven't tested this on Win10, so these are few thoughts from playing it on my Win7 PC a couple of years ago.

Firstly, there seems to be some weird issue during load screens where the game re-initialises itself and Steam gets confused about whether the game is still running, so this explains why my hours are so low despite making a bit of progress in the game.

The Jetsons-esque visual style was really off-putting for me. One of the great things about the original Deus Ex was that the world and tech felt grounded and relatable. This just feels too far out there. It's a pretty big leap from cyberpunk (high-tech, low life) to full-blown plasma sci-fi.

The city hub sections are extremely claustrophobic, with many corridors and alleys bridging the various points of interest. It's believed this was done deliberately to help optimise the game for the original Xbox, but it comes at the price of feeling very restricted in the open play area.

The combat was okay from memory; the biggest issue with it is the universal ammo system. Every gun in your inventory uses the same pool of ammo. Bleh.

I really wanted to get invested in the story after the brilliant Deus Ex, but it was quite hard to bear through these gameplay and tech issues.

What a shame.
