Deus Ex: Human Revolution - Directors Cut.

I played the console version when it came out back in the day and wanted to replay it for the last months but never came around to do it, but it popped up on a Steam Sale for 4 bucks last week and since I have a much more powerful PC then I did back then I figured to try out the PC-version instead.

It's of course much more fluid and the controls are better, but I remembered the graphics being much better than they actually are.

But graphic is a rather unimportant component in gaming for me, the game still plays very well. While my original playthrough was really peaceful, I tried to sneak around and kill as few people as possible, during my early second playthrough I already discovered much more alternate routes to sneak around even better or talk your way out of problems.

I especially remember having a hard time with the Police Office, sneaking around and getting spotted all the time, but now I just talked to the warden in the right way and got complete access to everything, that was much easier. And the dialogs are really interesting once you figure out how to properly deal with them.

I'm playing on the hardest difficulty this time around, but so far I had no real problems with it, if you sneak around enemies or take them out silently and hack to gain advantages health or damage doesn’t really matter.

I like this game a lot more now that I acknowledged how different I can play the game if I try to talk and hack more, while still sneaking around enemies as much as possible.
