On the contrary, I myself am still much interested in seeing some results from all this. If only I knew how to do it!

It isn't just a video, it's a three-dimensional hologram being played. Hence the term "holo-player". There's no glitch, it's proceeding according to plan. Fear not.

If they make a sequel and Sis survives it would only make sense to make her older, old enough to be a viable romance option. You'd still have to deal with Albatross and his bloody scarf (stupid jacket!), if he didn't just die of old age in the meantime.

Open world you can barely interact with... sounds like Mafia 2. Anyway, a sequel would be nice, but I'd settle for a rerelease of the first one with all the bugs and issues fixed, maybe some extra missions and people and stuff. And make the whole Rome hub coherent, too.

Yes, it does. The earliest I ever got it was leaving Peragus aboard the Ebon Hawk; you're not supposed to have enough LS or DS before then to trigger the cutscenes, so the code's probably conflicting.

That's... strange. Buying games from Steam means you don't need a disk, and even without Steam you didn't need the disk after the initial installation of the game. Well, make sure you have the latest version, should be 1.01 or some such, then try it again. Dunno what else to tell you, really.

Hear hear.

I'm proud to say I preordered it months before it came out, and I never regretted it. But it's good to see people finding it for themselves and seeing how great it is beneath the bugs and grime.

A lot of fans think, based on comments in the game, that I don't think it's too farfetched myself, she knows a lot about the young lady and her heritage after all.

So... any luck over there, sir or madam? Did the patch work for you?

Download the latest patch: http://www.shacknews.com/file/24585/alpha-...o-110-us-retail It disables PC copy protection, thus removing the need for activation. It also fixes a few other bugs.

Meh, credits were nigh useless in KotOR 2. You never had to buy anything since the best equipment could either be found or made, unless there was that one uber crystal you just had to have right away. The Money Spiders were in full force all the way through. Besides, if I remember rightly you could scare that dude into giving you the fake holocron, and impress some of your teammates in the process.

Yeah, it's a gender thing. Handmaiden is only recruitable if you're a guy, and she'll stow away aboard the Hawk as you're leaving the Telos Academy; otherwise you get the Disciple, when you run into him on Dantooine. You can't have both.

That's too bad. Sorry about that, Crakey-boy.

Let's see, Alpha Protocol... a game that you're playing by taking on the role of Agent Michael Thorton. Seems like an RPG to me. What else is there? Adjustable difficulty? Check. Multiple character backgrounds to chose between? Check. Varied approach to missions? Check. Points for improving skills earned by leveling up? Check. Certain actions being easier depending on how high a skill is developed? Check. Consequences on the larger world for your choices and actions? Even ones as small as your chosen replies in conversation? Check and check. Intermittent boss fights that are noticeably more difficult than regular mooks? Oh, double-check. Ability to chose the order in which you take on the missions? Check. Mmhm, still seems like an RPG to me.
