The dialog was some genius
[quote name="fabio"][quote name="Worm"]Why don't I just play Binary Domain and then watch Alpha Protocol cutscenes on youtube? Like everything Obsidian does it's just heavily flawed and inferior to most other options. In the end I'm playing Dialog Picker 2010 with a regular interruption from Awful Stealth Game 2010 and Awful Cover Shooter 2010.[/quote] Okay, not the <b>actual</b> dialog (which can still be fun if you look at it as a Tom Clancy parody the way Alan Wake is a Stephen King parody) but the way they so seamlessly altered little lines here and there based off of your past actions. No other game has yet to do pull it off to that level, not Paul Denton saying you killed too many terrorists and certainly not Mass Effect. I got frustrated when I went for pure stealth before having a lot of fun when I realized stealth should just be treated as a bonus up until you get discovered and start karate chopping people. You should finish the Middle East. The game gets <b>so</b> much better after that. Again I'd call it another Beyond Good & Evil where any one element would suck on its own but it's more than the sum of the parts. [/quote]
