No A rewrite of Deux Ex needs reverse-engineering of proprietary game formats, logic, and assets, which are owned by a rights holder. It also requires deep game-engine and large-scale systems expertise that vibe coding cannot supply.
What it would actually take: Building a real version means reverse-engineering the original Unreal Engine 1 data formats and UnrealScript logic, or re-implementing game systems from observed behavior, then rebuilding levels, AI, physics, and audio in Bevy. It also requires legal clearance for the original assets, since the source material is proprietary. This is a multi-year project for a team with game engine, reverse-engineering, and game design expertise.
