Deus Ex predicts the future (yet again)

[Zetta]

Here's an excerpt from a book found in the first game:

Vishnu's Fall

A Brief History of the Indian Crisis​

... after the bombing, Indian officials issued a series of stern warnings to Pakistan that were rebuffed with denials of responsibility and dire threats that any attempt to use the bombings as a pretext for military action would be met with force in kind. From the viewpoint of the present-day historiographer this was a crucial event, a game of brinksmanship that had been played between Pakistan and India many, many times before and so, while tragic, it is also easily understood how clear signs of the impending catastrophe might have been ignored.

"Like two kids shoving each other on the playground," said historian Alistair Brooks. "You never expect them to come to blows."

That was before Pakistan began the trials of the "Calcutta 16" and both nations descended into a maelstrom of political upheaval that would eventually culminate in the exchange of nuclear warheads...

Not to say that this deduction, on its own, is particularly impressive; the endpoint - the culmination of these two states - seems foreseeable to anyone with any geopolitical or historical literacy. However, in combination with everything that Deus Ex has predicted thus far, and considering the timing of these events and how they emerge, it's eerie. Perhaps there lies some kind of coincidental predictive power, and the developers tapped into something not meant to be tapped into.

Don't ask me what, but they truly tapped into something. Some kind of fiber optic cable hidden underneath space that is instrumental to how the world unfolds.

The truth may be eerier and simpler.

First deus ex is a legend. I just downloaded an image of the ps2 version of the game to play it on the emulator.
