Unironically Deus Ex, it’s full of cookie-cutter crazy conspiracy theories and references, but it introduced me to the literary genre of Cyberpunk and it’s surrounding culture back in the day. If it wasn’t for it, I probably wouldn’t be so critical of modern consumerism and corporate culture. It helps that a lot of the game’s social commentary remains very topical twenty years later, they simply don’t make games like this anymore.
