    That was my ending of choice as well.

    ... When I originally played the game, and still to this day, I consider it the worst ending.

    Simply because it causes the most suffering and death.

    Illuminati ending is ... essentially status quo, nothing really changes, beyond your personal story.

    Helios ending... well, terrifying, but frankly, I trust JC.

    Play through DX IW and you'll see he... makes very persuasive arguments.

    Uh, anyway, canonically, they blended all three endings together, to set up DX IW.

    I'd say the JC/Helios ending is... fairly clearly the most optimistic ending of IW.

    Also, fun little uh, spoiler, I guess... one of the endings of DX IW features a panning/dollying shot from the vantage point of an orbital space station.

    Its looking at the Eastern US and Western Atlantic.

    ... Florida isn't present. It's almost entirely underwater, by ~2080.

    DX IW

    DirectX Infinity War? I have no context for this, and of course I could look it up, but not doing so is more fun.

    Deus Ex Invisible War.

    Deus Ex did have a direct sequel, made by the same studio, came out a couple of years after the original Deus Ex.

    Problem was, it was basically designed for the Xbox, so, levels had to get broken into smaller chunks with lots of load screens, a good deal of gameplay mechanics got simplified / dumbed down.

    But... the overall storyline, from a world building perspective at least, was fairly interesting.

    The game is very much the red headed step child of the Deus Ex franchise, as the overall impression (which is correct imo) is that it was basically a dumbed down console version of a DX sequel, a significant disappointment.
