Is it really possible to finish Deus Ex without actively killing a single enemy?
Posted On: May 3, 2023

Recently I read an old article about violence in video games. This article was astonishingly informed, since it mentioned that Deus Ex can be played without actively killing a single enemy.


I played Deus Ex a lot some years ago, but I can't think of a way to really complete the game without killing. I think the way to use is to use a lot of sneaking and tranquillizers. But I can't imagine that this is enough for the whole game. So my question is, has anyone of you completed the game without killing or has a serious source that mentions how it works?


Question from user RoflcoptrException at gaming.stackexchange.com.


Answer:

Actually, yes, and I believe it even extends to all of the bosses. If you stick to tranquilizer darts, gas grenades, batons, and stun guns, you can get through most fights without actually killing anyone.


This is really easier said than done though, since non-lethal ammo is very limited, and you'll find that the some of the boss fights are nearly impossible.


If you're going to actually try this, sneak past as many guards as possible, conserving ammo for when you really need it.
