i'm very much hoping this is going to wind up being Deus Ex in City 17 but with Thief/STALKER's focus on player skill rather than Deus Ex's focus on character skill, but i'm expecting unnecessary skills and dumb RPG elements anyway.
either way i'm pumped as [censored]. between Skyrim, Deus Ex, and next year Prey 2, Far Cry 3, Bioshock Infinite, STALKER 2 and this, this decade is shaping up to be an incredible resurgence of immersive sims.
