Re: Words that have stuck with you

Most of Deus Ex (the original) is a bunch of sociology papers on legs talking in paragraphs, but there's one line about a third of the way through that resonated with me, even back in my proto-libertarian days when I didn't know any better:

"Average people never benefit from government and business on a scale they can't even comprehend."

Re: Words that have stuck with you

Deus Ex's approach is hamfisted and basically freshman sociology, but the themes it touched on were, and are, quite relevant, sometimes to the point of being downright spooky.

One of my favourite examples is that if you look at the NYC skyline, the WTC is missing. This game was made in the late 90s and released in 2000 -- a year before 9/11. Oddly, the skybox texture still has the WTC on it, but due to the way the Unreal engine handled skyboxes, it was cut off. Ion Storm didn't know how to fix it, so their in-office justification was that the WTC was blown up by terrorists.
