You get that Deus Ex is pastiche, right? It has the illuminati in it for god's sake.

I'm listing stuff I've seen (because it's funny) but wouldn't play or genuinely recommend at all.

Anything and everything by David Cage
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Cage#Credits
He is a phenomenally incompetent writer and utterly up his own ass.

The same probably applies to Swery
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidetaka_Suehiro#Works
though I have seen less (Deadly Premonition is awful and *insane*).

What about all these exploration games that revolve around mental illness or social issues? What Remains of Edith Finch, Gone Home, A Normal Lost Phone, Marie's Room, Robin, To the Moon, etc.

Life is Strange might qualify.

Death Stranding of course.

Undertale.
