LaPtiteBete: Hum... I totally get it. Action keys are always a big deal for me... if there are more than 6-7 keys I get quickly lost... I lost the habit to play action games, plus... I really liked The Nomad Soul when it has been released... GTA3... but since then... I tried Deux Ex recently, and I can't manage to crawl/hide/crouch nimbly enough, I always get caught and fail the sneaky training mission... :'-( ... (and yes, I'm only trying the training mission !! I've not even started the 'real' game... **sigh** [/fail at action games])

GhostwriterDoF: I've never played through Deus Ex, only did a test run of it. Even though it is antiquated, it still seemed the action was good. You'll just have to get used to the gameplay (and the keys!) to be successful in the Deus Ex environment. ...
I usually don't have the patience to play the "stealth" games, since I'm usually pressed for game-time. And I'd rather go through levels with guns blazing than to sneak around, but sometimes a good stealth/survival experience is a nice change of pace. ;)
Omikron Nomad Soul is surely one I want to play through, but it is a very odd game, with unusual mechanics, almost like a whole bunch of different types of games all blended into it. heh!
Games that have their own or complicated key schemes will definitely require a focused attention without too many distractions to get through them successfully.
