^ME2 has no place in that list.

No more Forgotten Realms. There's plenty of D&D... more Dark Sun, Eberron or even Dragonlance.

This is sig worthy.

Hmm... it might happen if BioWare for some reason would outsource Dragon Age 2 to Obsidian...

In my experience, Alpha Protocol feels more AAA than Dragon Age & Mass Effect 2 together.

Big productions always get more leeway than the smaller ones. Just like in business.

^Why should they be given leeway for defending their country? Also, none of their neighbours is stupid enough to attack Israel directly nowadays. Which is exactly the reason for shenanigans like this. EDIT:

Genocided, and then attacked from the inside & outside constantly since 1948.

Is "M1LFluv3r" someone's nick at Obsidian?

Yeah... I wouldn't be surprised to see it toned down in a future patch to be honest... I almost one-shotted Brayko with Master Chainshot.

I think the best exchange is when you talk with Albatross about Sis' locket. That was very emotional, extremely well done facial expressions too... totally worth keeping the gal alive for.

Maybe Hamas should fire some more rockets into Israeli schoolyards. Oh wait... they do that every day.

You can buy a German version from the publisher DTP on their site. No English version, though, and I don't know who published it in the UK. But just wait for River of TIme, it's much better than Drakensang 1.

^Not enough fighting in tunnels?

Her voice-over alone was enough to make whacking her extremely satisfying. Funny how BioWare repeated that horribly designed boss-fight with KOTOR.

Considering the nature of 'activism' in Israel is quite different from other civilised countries, and that as a consequence Israeli security forces don't fool around, I find the behaviour of those 'civilians' very suspicious.

There's no comparison, really. ME2 is not even a RPG. /can of worms

Why would 'civilians' attack Israeli commandos with axes & knives?

I didn't really like the boss fights either. If I hadn't a character that maxed out Stealth & Pistols, I don't even know how I would have beaten some of them. Chain Shot + Shadow Operative makes it smooth sailing. But even then, some boss fights became kind of a Benny Hill affair where Thorton was running around for cover waiting for his mad skills to recharge, while the boss was giving chase.

Greg Kasavin, where art thou?

^I think she likes aggression. I enjoyed the back-and-forth between Thorton & Leland. Reminded me of the one between Bond and Blofeld. The talks with Marburg reminded me of Auric Goldfinger. Good stuff.

That ranger chick from Samargol is a really good recruit... I used her from as soon as I could afford her, until the end. Then later I hired a blonde, masked rogue whose name I forgot.

Yes, I should replay ME2 at one point and generate an end-save where FemShep remained faithful to either Liara or Kaiden. Jacob's really meh, not to mention the romance dialogue is horrendous... and Frogboy's is even worse. Garrus is alright, but he's better as a friend.

I don't know how I would beat some bosses without Chain Shot. Combined with Shadow Operative... it's kinda cheesy. It's also funny how Evasion will make Mike invisible if he goes around a corner and bumps into a guard, allowing him to one-hit kill the guard. Anyway:

Stealth + Pistols + Hand-to-hand is pretty fun. I almost always use the melee takedown for enemies, but if I screw up, Chain Shot makes things very easy. AI is very wonky though... I'm in Rome and enemies are simply waiting in corridors while my Chain Shot is recharging.
