So I guess it could go either way if it stays true to its roots.
Agreed. It does play like an FPS/RPG like Deus Ex, come to think of it. Since Irrational Games already demonstrated how the game plays through the developer walkthrough and the X06 trailer you mentioned previously, I hope that the time and effort put into this game pays off.

Godspeed, Irrational.
