Deus Ex Human Revolution endings

These are the available '''ending''' cutscenes in ''Deus Ex: Human Revolution'', which are based on one of the four possible final choices of the player in Panchaea. The 4 endings each will have slightly different narration from Jensen depending on whether you were good, neutral, or evil throughout the game. This means that the game has 12 unqiue endings.
==Hugh Darrow: I Want To Believe==
'''Requirements:''' Follow Darrow's request, in which nothing is held back and all information is revealed to the world. It is not explicitly stated whether all biotech research is banned, but Jensen remarks that humanity will surely fear it.
==William Taggart: It Was Something In The Water== '''Requirements:''' Follow Taggart's request, this choice covers up the truth and places the blame on Neuropozyne poisoning. This results in stronger regulation, ultimately strengthening the Illuminati's position.
==David Sarif: Terrorists Did It== '''Requirements:''' Follow Sarif's request, where the blame will be laid at the feet of Humanity Front. This causes people to shift their anger towards extremism and allows research and technology to progress unfettered.
==Self Destruction: The Truth Is Out There== '''Requirements:''' Do not select any of the three above messages to send, but instead activate Pancheae's self-destruct mechanism. The rationale given for this action is that Jensen feels that it is not up to Darrow, Taggart, Sarif, nor even himself to determine mankind's fate. He has faith that humanity will eventually do what is best, and this is why he elects to remove them all from the equation.

Not to nitpick, but it's never directly stated that augmentations get outlawed if you choose Darrow's ending, in fact the "final" ending after the credits (which does play if one chooses Darrow's ending) strongly suggests otherwise; Eliza suggests that it ''could'' happen but doesn't state that it ''will ''happen; considering that Bob Page (and Morgan Everett) is in a position of power at this time, it is likely he would have influenced regulation rather than a ban. Therefore, Deus Ex doesn't '''necessarily''' make this ending non-canonical.

:Actually, I haven't finished Deus Ex: Human Revolution so I don't know. I just copy paste which was marked in the timeline page.

:Otherwise, the "fears strong government" seems to make this ending non-canon, since all governments in 2052 are pretty powerful (especially those under the control of Majestic-12).

:Anyway, if you have finished the game (what appears to be the case), please take care of this page. User:Itachou|Itachou User talk:Itachou|~talk~ 19:54, September 10, 2011 (UTC)

:I actually would think that this IS the canon ending - everything is revealed, probably leading to restrictions and fear about augmentations, but not halting it.

:Of course, maybe I simply misunderstand the message. I took it as "Technology can be dangerous, be careful!".--User:Cyberman TM|Cyberman TM 17:16, July 1, 2012 (UTC)

:I agree that it seems like the Hugh Darrow route could be considered canon.  After all, the general population in Human Revolution includes many Augs that are relatively "normal" citizens - but by the time the original Deus Ex rolls around, all of the Augs I recall worked in areas that required those enhancements (i.e., special ops).  Hugh Darrow's confession seems far more likely/canon than Sarif's route, since you'd otherwise expect to see an even higher percentage of Augs, decades later.

:Is there anything in particular in the Timeline that jumps out to say this ending is inconsistent with the original universe?  The only thing that comes to mind is that people still consider the Illuminati to be a fairy tale -- but, that's not entirely unlikely considering how farfetched the idea sounds, and the fact that Hugh Darrow *would* probably be labeled an insane mass murderer even in the minutes between his initial broadcast and the confession. -- 07:10, November 19, 2012 (UTC)mel
