Mankind Divided looks -blam!-ing awesome but I didn't play Human Revolution because I was afraid I'd be left in the dark for not playing the others but I'm just wondering if I really do need to play them all to understand. Confirm this for me, do I need to play all the other Deus Ex games to understand the new ones? Or are they all different like Final Fantasy?

Other than the general arc, I don't think so. DE tends to be relatively labyrinthine with its plot, so you'll get a lot of factions doing various complicated things and it can be tricky to follow sometimes. MD seems to be following from where the big twist of HR left off, and exploring its consequences. Follow the pre-release material and you should be fine. Feel free to play the game, of course.
