You have 4 choices at the end of Deus Ex 2.

1. Merge with Helios, allowing JC Denton to spread a nanite cloud over the earth, endowing everyone with nanotech abilities and allowing them access to Helios and a worldwide network. This supposedly will create a totally equal society, since everyone will have the same abilities and will have a say in ALL political matters, instantly, thanks to being connected to the network.

2. Upload the Aquinas hub access to the Templars, giving them access and complete control over the worldwide network, and then use JC's merging machine to spread a counter-nanite cloud over the world, removing biomodification from the world.

3. Upload the Aquinas hub access to the WTO, giving the Illuminati control over the earth's network once again.

4. Take the advice and help of one of your classmates, and kill everyone else on the island, destroying JC's machine also, so NONE of the groups have a controlling influence on the world anymore.

Sadly, none of the endings are very good, minus #1, which I haven't gotten yet since JC seems to have trouble staying alive unless you babysit him and waste all your ammo.

The endings I have gotten can be summed up as follows.

#2

*The templar leader stands in a beer hall accompanied by an army of his followers, and the lynched corpses of a "gray" and what seems to be a scientist*

Templar leader: Bei dieser historischen Gelegenheit muß ich allen jenen Millionen der unbekannten Krieger noch einmal danken, von jeder Kategorie und von Kaste Beruf und Handel und von allen farmsteads, wer ihre Herzen gegeben haben, ihre Leben und ihre Opfer, für den neuen Auftrag!
Templars: SEIG HEIL!

~FIN~

#3

*something boringly similar to 1984 happens*

~FIN~

#4

*Alex kills everyone on the island*
Alex: Ah, finally, a world free of assholes seeking to rule it for supposedly higher purposes.
The Omar: You forgot us, we'll be taking over the network now, kthx.
Alex: Aw snap.

*The apocalypse happens, only the Omar survive*

~FIN~

Beh.

After all the changes they made from one to two, I decided to avoid the game entirely. So personally, I'm not all that upset.
