Choicest VGM - VGM #428 - Deus Ex - Ending 2 (Helios)

Deus Ex title screen


Track composed by Alexander Brandon

Another potential ending in Deus Ex, and one for the control freaks or perhaps the most logical among us is merging JC Denton with the Helios AI. JC Denton ends up ruling the Earth as an almost god-like being looking over the Earth (there's a reason the ending is sometimes called the "Benevolent Dictator" ending).

The track starts off with a sad, sombre tone, probably reflecting the sacrifice that JC Denton will have to make in order to achieve Helios's goal, however the track ends on a more triumphant, positive note.

The cutscene ends with a quote from Voltaire:
"If there were no god, it would be necessary to invent him."
