I loved this game, and this intro is great. Stick around for the 2nd video in the playlist for the "GROK" drop lol and the chief talking. Some real core memories for me.

So far in our series of articles, we’ve shared information on our philosophy, decorating, and rewards for Housing in World of Warcraft, but it’s time to bring you into the Neighborhood. Briefly mentioned in our first post on Housing, it’s time to get into the nitty-gritty of what Neighborhoods are and what you can expect from them.

Endeavors was a surprise to me. Looks fun.

If you don't know what Deus Ex Randomizer is, here's the trailer from v3.0 which gives an overview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3mTcG6xeq4&list=PLZIQTa_kwZhBksj7UzcahPiRaHk87fWch&index=1

It's been about 1 year since v3.0 let you pet the dogs and other animals. Here are some of the biggest things we've added since then.

• Many new game modes:
  • Halloween mode, WaltonWare Halloween, and other varieties - adds zombies, limited saves, and Mr. H who is a big invincible guy that roams the map and tries to smack you.
  • Mr. Page's Mean Bingo Machine - A new mode where you play through the whole game, but must complete a bingo line before being allowed to progress to the next mission. Once you get to the next mission, you are given a new bingo board!
  • Zero Rando Plus - like "Zero Rando" (no randomization, very vanilla) but Plus more quality of life additions and balance tweaks.
  • Speedrun Training mode - shows where possible goal locations are without spoiling them.
  • We split off the old "Normal Randomizer" mode into "Full Randomizer", with the new "Normal Randomizer" being a more welcoming game mode to learn the Randomizer.
  • Strong Augs mode - increases the strength of augmentations.
  • One Item Mode - Our new dumbest game mode! All items in a map will be replaced with a single type of item (eg. all flares, all biocells, or all beers)

• Many new loadouts and augmentations:
  • The default "All Items Allowed" loadout now starts with the new inferior "Running Enhancement" instead of the old "Speed Enhancement". Choose the "Speed Enhancement" loadout if you want to start with that like before.
  • The Three Leg Augs loadout - Allows Running Enhancement, Jump Enhancement, and Run Silent. You start with one of them. Enables aug slot rando by default.
  • My Vision Is Augmented loadout - Allows Vision Enhancement, Short-Range Vision Enhancement, InfraVision, and Motion Sensor. You start with one of them. Enables aug slot rando by default.
  • Random Starting Aug (instead of Running Enhancement)
  • And more!

• Lots of balance changes
  • Allowing even more variety of play styles, especially with augmentations.
  • Balance changes are also now toggleable in the options. Disabled by default for Zero Rando, but most are enabled by default for Zero Rando Plus.
• More goals rando, especially for Gordon Quick, and Area 51.
• New augmentation slot randomization feature (so speed can be an eye aug)
• Multiple, rotating quicksave slots
• New menu to change current in-game settings
• Many new bingo goals and improvements to our bingo game modes!
• Deus Ex: Revision support is massively improved as a whole

• We're doing a speedrun marathon on Sunday for Deus Ex's 25th Anniversary! (June 22nd)
  • All of the Deus Ex games are here, including some runs of the Randomizer
  • Stream: https://twitch.tv/sumofbesties
  • Schedule: https://oengus.io/marathon/dx25/schedule/dx25
• Our speedrun leaderboard was created about a year ago: https://www.speedrun.com/dxrando (we split the leaderboard for a couple of big updates that changed the run a lot)
• We did 3 amazing speedrun races: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLZIQTa_kwZhDZjz905W-hpORQ4S1Rj3a6
• We have a WaltonWare tournament soon! Stay tuned on my YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@die4ever2005/videos

Hey everyone

We’re really sorry to say this, but lemm.ee will be shutting down on June 30, 2025.

What you need to know

As of now:

• New user registrations are disabled
• Creating new communities is disabled

What you should do:

• You can export your settings at https://lemm.ee/settings to take them with you to another instance.
• If you're moving to another instance, consider adding a note to your lemm.ee profile with your new username. Your old profile will still be visible from other instances even after we go offline.
• Alternatively, if you want to delete your lemm.ee profile, now is the best time to do it, so the deletion can federate out before we go offline.
• If you're one of the folks supporting us with a recurring donation, please remember to cancel it (Ko-Fi donations should have been cancelled automatically already). Our leftover funds are already enough to cover our bills for next month, so we can keep things running without any more support.

Because of how Lemmy is built, everything posted on lemm.ee will still be accessible from other instances, even after we go offline.

Why this is happening

The key reason is that we just don’t have enough people on the admin team to keep the place running. Most of the admin team has stepped down, mostly due to burnout, and finding replacements hasn’t worked out.

The sad reality is that while there are a lot of great people on Lemmy, there are also some who use the platform to attack others, stir up conflict, or actively try to undermine the project. Admins are volunteers who deal with the latter group on a constant basis, this takes a mental toll. Please understand why our admins chose to step down, and be kind to the admins on whatever instance you decide to join.

We know this sucks. We're genuinely sorry it’s ending like this. Thank you to everyone who spent time here and helped make it better.

– lemm.ee team
