"To turn away from it now, to stop pursuing a future in which technology and biology converge, leading to the promise of a singularity, would be to deny the very ESSENCE of who we are."
One of the most beautiful lines in videogaming history, and I didn't even pick this ending.

@MrManiacPsycho Indeed. The coming biotech and nanotech advances will uplift and empower individuals. It is no surprise that political organizations benefiting from the current paradigm will resist such a decentralization of power.

One has to remember that the Machine Room in which Sarif hid had a small submarine. I guess he would leave, saving few others. The illuminati on Panchaea weren't the only ones. And the others would know about the chip plans so both sides would survive anyway. I agree that Sarif's ending gives more equal chances to people than others.

This is the 'best' ending, IMO. Even though the Illuminati are still in power at least Jensen lives on and can do some small good. Like @KNOCKOUT1309 I'd like to see a sequal that replaces, 'Invisible War.' Long live seekers of truth. LONG LIVE DEUS EX!

@sirjefferson9001 and reprogram him to either obey the illuminati or templars, or take control of him yourself, or have nobody in control by switching everybody able to see everything

it could e.g. play in the new world where everyone's uplinked by helios and you're one of jc's fighters fighting against evil templars or illuminati remnants who want to destroy the system/subdue humanity, but it turns out they're secretly led by helios (as he has the ultimate power to hide stuff from people) so he can control the resistance (which there always would be) and also justify his rule of law, and in the end you can either destroy, reprogram or let him be

To tell you the truth Adam was the person to show that common people can handle the power that the government has. He gives the Gov. a reason to trust the common people.

@cubefreak123 As I said, Panchaea destroyed is the only one that fits canon, it destroys the major players that would otherwise mess up the flow of events that led to Deus Ex, while also preparing the background and leaving Page free to continue to control the population for another few decades.
I consider the three character-named, spun endings to be alternate continuity, each one showcasing the ideals and wishes of the one it's named for. Panchaea-boom is just a canon tie in.

@stathamajf You can say that it's the 'moron' ending and that there is no choice simply because you don't know what you learn from playing the first game. From Adam's perspective that IS the best chance you have; Page and MJ12 were almost non-existent in HR. However, augmentation doesn't seem to be near as wide-spread in DE1, implying that humanity DID scale back from it, the Illuminati was weakened (which allowed for MJ12 but again, perspective)
In my understanding of the DX universe, the government/illuminati would always have access to superior technology and augmentation regardless of the ending. However, the Sarif ending"evens the playing field" for common men and women by allowing them the means of liberation and self-defense against a potentially tyrannical government. Adam himself said this prior to the fight with Namir: "You're afraid of augmented people like me with the power to resist you". That is the true revolution in DX.

@KNOCKOUT1309 Sequel?
This game actually takes place before the original Deus Ex game, so if you want to see what happens /after/ this game, search for the original Deus Ex.
But I would absolutely love to see a continuation of the Deus Ex series.
