Deus Ex 3!? - Page 69

Is Darrow part of Illuminati or not? If not, what exactly have they done so far, or wanted to do, that justifies his whole plan? Also who is Darrow anyway? Either i missed it or he never got introduced, he just appears to be higher ranked than Sarif in Sarifs own industry.
What exactly is so special about Adam? What have they been doing in the facility when he was a baby?
And what the hell is this computer thing at the end. Since Eliza is still "alive" afterwards it is not the super AI , so what does it do?

The game doesn't really give you much about Darrow. He's the guy who created the first mechanical augmentations and he's a leader in the field, but I guess he also owns Picus (the news network) and obviously Panchea as well. His position is actually Taggart's stated position - mechanical augmentation is too dangerous, used by the privileged to keep the underclasses down, etc. How or why he came to that realization isn't made clear nor does it really make sense why he funded the largest research institution for a technology he dislikes. They say he's just jealous because he can't receive implants, but that's a really shitty explanation.

I don't think he's in the Illuminati (he may have defected), but Taggart is and wants regulation basically so the Illuminati can control it. But Taggart also tells Jenson he should basically be the world's dictator or let the Illuminati do it, which is also pretty stupid and completely against the liberty arguments he made earlier. Plus the Illuminati were the ones who distributed the new biochip through Tai Yong Medical which gave them the ability to control everyone, so Taggart's anti-aug position doesn't make much sense if he wants the Illuminati to control things.
His body doesn't reject the implants. Other people need that drug, neuropozyne, otherwise the implant will slowly kill them. How that leads into the mech augs from DX1... no idea. I'm curious why some augs are stronger than others though. Just the grade of technology? Who's making the stuff for the bad guys such that it's so much better than what Sarif Industries can produce.
They killed a bunch of babies until they found one with special DNA (Adam.)
I have no idea, but it was apparently a quantum computer which is a bigger deal than having mechanical arms.

EDIT: From the Wiki
Firstly, wtf with the girls? This seems straight out of Minority Report.

I guess the system doesn't recognize her because Darrow designed it that way thinking she'd try it? He could've just killed her. I don't know, she's just kind of a faceless character (that nearly seduces Adam!) making a power grab.

I think he's more of a double agent. In that he might appear to be part of the Illuminati, but he has his own agenda. Primarily being that he is personally jealous of people with augmentations since he himself can't have them and wants his own creation to die. Plus he has fears that the Illuminati will control people with the biochip in this heads.

I do think he is part of the Illuminati though since you can see blueprints of Hyron in Zhao's penthouse as well as the suits that the conduits in Hyron wear in her penthouse as well. So he did get that technology from TYM, and TYM is pretty much Illuminati run.

His body accepts the augmentations and actually develops a strong bond with them. It's supposed to be in his DNA, which Sarif wanted to exploit and made Reed research. As far as the facility that burnt down when he was a child I don't know exactly. It's Deus Ex, so the answer to things like that is Illuminati most likely is involved. Like maybe he was a genetic experiment or something. I didn't pay attention during that mission, and I probably should have since it's supposed to be a big plot point.

That's the Hyron Project. It doesn't control Eliza. Eliza is controlled in Montreal in the Picus building. But it's poorly explained what it is too though. Given the after credits discussion with Bob Page about "sifting through wreckage for the Morpheus initiative" it might be a precursor to that.

It's actually revealed in an email on one of the Terminals in Picus, in a room right next to where you first find the hologram of Eliza I believe it is, that Morgan Everett is the CEO of Picus. And it's also slightly confirmed later on as well when you head deep into the subterranean bunker with a statue in the foyer of a hand enveloping the world. The same style of statue is behind Everett in the Illuminati end to the first Deus Ex.

According to the Wiki, Everett is the CEO, Darrow is the founder.

If the Illuminati want to control everyone (and do so through biochips) and they also control Picus, then why is Picus sending out anti-augmentation propaganda?

Darrow being self serving about augmentation seems so stupid. He's at the end of his life and the technology hasn't been around that long anyways.

Well they were experimenting 'something' on babies and adam was found to be special. His real parents decided to burn down the facility (and leave adam to die?)
It just doesnt occur to me, why it have to be babies and what exactly they did to them.
And due to coincidence he then ends up with megan, who also searches for the same cure.

takedown through a wall

Except on the ending where he blows the building up of course, seems logical that you can't continue there.
