Not enough Geralt in it.

Comparisons with Deus Ex and VtM: Bloodlines seem appropriate.

Not really. Deus Ex was shooter first, "lite" RPG second, while Bloodlines was RPG first, shooter second.

I don't see how DX was lite, but whatever. If DX is FPS/RPG and Bloodlines RPG/FPS, then what is AP that it can't be compared with those two?

Not trying to argue or anything but i was just wondering how the gunfighting system was broken in ME?

 

Well, the different weapons are mostly meaningless, and balance is completely off its rocker. I wouldn't call it broken, however. It's just kind of bad.

I thought the combat in ME was great, myself. I thought it was a excellent blend of role playing dynamics and action gaming.

What's cool at least for me is I have never played any of the games mentioned here (ME, Deus Ex and VtM: Bloodlines) so AP should be all new, shiny and different. Yay me!

i should clarify - the system of "different" weapons is what I consider broken, the actual shooting was that of a fairly mediocre shooter. I would add that this was made worse by the game being too easy. Also the aim was laggy and irritating, nowhere near as fluid as a dedicated TPS.

Did you play it on the 360?

 

 

EDIT: Kelverin, go play Deus Ex.

Thanks for a meaningless and inaccurate post Morgoth. I rely on you for these things.

I think the fact that Deus Ex has fairly little choice via dialogue, and most decisions made are more 'practically' in game (who to kill/keep alive etc. doesn't get decided through a kill/save dialogue but by not shooting them) throws some people off the fact how much you can actually direct your character in Deus Ex. That said, JC Denton's weapon really isn't choice, and that's what has me rubbing my grubby paws together with AP.

 

Can't comment on Bloodlines, it doesn't officially run on my computer (laptop) and I've never bothered to get it so I could just play around with 3danalyze.

You're a cheery wee bugger, Nep. Have I ever said that?
