Marky Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 Why do you have to buy the AP IP? Just create a new universe to set it in. AP was kinda generic. I think we all really want Heck to make a return. Though the odds of a spiritual successor happening is probably more realistic, and perhaps it would be better.

A spiritual successor would be fine, there is no need to actually get the Alpha Protocol IP. Hell be tongue in cheek about it and call it the Omega Directive. 1
spaceball9988 Posted February 25, 2014 Posted February 25, 2014 honestly i liked ap1 i do belive that a squeal can be made but since sega holds the rights then it well never happen
TheChris92 Posted March 2, 2014 Posted March 2, 2014 I'd love a sequel - Would love something with sharper stealth gameplay.
Darkpriest Posted March 4, 2014 Posted March 4, 2014 I have another question? Why simply not make another espionage RPG and brand it differently? My only guess is the money required to pull off such a thing and getting a publisher for a tripple A title. Maybe Obs should look to get a deal with 2K as a publisher. They seem to be funding some good stuff (I am looking at the Trust they gave to Firaxis and X-COM mainly)
SirBlackjack Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 I'm kinda hoping they could do one with archerfx. That would be aweseome.
Bryy Posted June 7, 2014 Posted June 7, 2014 I would 100% love an AP-style game set in an alt-future. It would kill two birds with one stone: make it interesting and unique and give it some eyebrow raises.
CBuckey Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 I can think of few hypothetical games that I would like to see more than an Alpha Protocol sequel.
Killian Malachi Posted June 29, 2014 Posted June 29, 2014 Just played the game again I've lost count how many times exactly but it's been a lot. Yes there were parts that could have been better, but I thoroughly enjoyed it each time. There are very few games I can say that about..Mass Effect 1 and 2, Kotor 1 and 2, and now AP. I know I'm not the only one either and the fact that it is still being sold today and being played today I think speaks volumes about what they could do with the IP. That is if they fixed the combat, cover system, and the AI. Though to be honest I'm not overly concerned with any of those systems. I can overlook most of the issues because the story, choices, and multiple endings impressed me that much. Now I know that makes me a rare exception in the gaming community which is why those issues need to be addressed in order for it to be a success that Obsidian would need it to be. I however believe they could do it and get at least partial funding from it's fans if the produced some sort of plan that outlined what changes they would make and how. It's been over just over 4 years since AP initial release and with how much tech and game engines have advanced since then I can only imagine how good the game could be if a sequel were done and done right. The biggest problem I think they face is Sega unfortunately, but I would love a sequel to catch up with Michael, Scarlet, Mina, Heck, and all the others just to see what they were up to four years down the road.
licketysplit Posted July 3, 2014 Posted July 3, 2014 Hell yes. But I want another company to craft the gameplay.
Bryy Posted July 12, 2014 Posted July 12, 2014 Hell yes. But I want another company to craft the gameplay. That's... ridiculously offensive.
Ashen Rohk Posted July 13, 2014 Posted July 13, 2014 Alpha Protocol 2. You play as Brayko. Hilarity ensues. You read my post. You have been eaten by a grue.

evilmiera Posted August 22, 2014 Posted August 22, 2014 https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1591209713/sienna-storm Sorry to say that is probably not going to make it unless it gets more exposure or more content to show. I'd like it to, but still.

Jitawa Posted September 19, 2014 Posted September 19, 2014 I liked both the RPG and action game elements in AP. I was surprised by a lot of the reviews, as in many many playthroughs, the only bugs I encountered tended to be some issues with certain perks popping or some stealth detection anomalies. I even bought two copies back in the day, though to be fair, that was because the pre-order bonuses had been split across retailers (which has never been a great consumer-friendly practice). If there was a second one, I'd be fine with the exact same engine even. I don't think I'd want a kickstarted version of an isometric non-voiced game. While that would be interesting in its own right, I don't think the stealth gameplay or characterization with the V.O. would be the same. As titles go, the voicework went a long way in establishing character and giving life to the timed conversation interactions. I realize voicework and engine are a large part of inflating the costs of development, but I don't think I could discard a 3D engine with some degree of facial animation and workable V.O. were as parts of even a spiritual successor. I don't think a kickstarter would necessarily succeed anyhow. Black Isle games are nostalgia'd to the max for people everywhere, and there's been a serious lack of games with that sort of depth. It's easy to understand the success of Eternity in those terms. I think AP is still a cult favorite at best, and apparently would require more funding to reach the production value-levels I would like. Seems like the best odds involve Obsidian making a pitch that some publisher just can't turn down or something like that. Maybe the PoE release and some of their other projects will give them more bargaining cred. Stick of Truth was well-received and low-bug as well I think?
Aoyagi Posted October 7, 2014 Posted October 7, 2014 pre-order bonuses had been split across retailers (which has never been a great consumer-friendly practice). It indeed is a very anti-consumer behaviour. And you support it.
philby Posted October 24, 2014 Posted October 24, 2014 I just recently finished a playthrough, I think my second. I would love another Alpha Protocol! I think the positives really outweigh the negatives. I've got it on PS3 and just bought it recently on Steam as well, I don't recall encountering any bugs at all really. I enjoyed the banter of the characters and the sort of more grown up style of conversation/morality system where it isn't good vs evil or right vs wrong, just different. Were the shooting mechanics still based on dice rolls behind the scenes? If they change that to a more traditional shooting mechanic I think it would be improved. Anyways I guess we are all just hoping and speculating at the moment...
David Frohman Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 Once they're done with Project Eternity, maybe they should kickstart Alpha Protocol 2?
Hassat Hunter Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 Can't... IP is SEGA's. They can kickstart a spiritual sequal though... but the oomph kinda left Kickstarter, so I doubt the necessary funds would be raised. ^ I agree that that is such a stupid idiotic pathetic garbage hateful retarded scumbag evil satanic nazi like term ever created.

They can kickstart a spiritual sequal though... but the oomph kinda left Kickstarter, so I doubt the necessary funds would be raised. I think a lot could depend on how successful PoE ends up being. If it's a massive hit, then Kickstarting a spiritual successor to AP might be feasible. 1 "Console exclusive is such a harsh word." - Darque"Console exclusive is two words Darque." - Nartwak (in response to Darque's observation)
ilayoeli Posted November 14, 2014 Posted November 14, 2014 Obsidian should go "FromSoft" and develop a samey spiritual successor
Hexo Posted December 19, 2014 Posted December 19, 2014 So, without gushing any further... Would you like so see another Alpha Protocol? It's a long shot, but maybe if enough people say "YES!!21!", the powers that be will see sense and give us more Thorton-flavoured win. Also, hi from a new guy. Even though there were some parts of the game I wasn't particularly a big fan off, I still enjoyed Alpha Protocol and yes if a sequel came out I'm game
JoniOdin Posted January 15, 2015 Posted January 15, 2015 I definitely want another AP!If they can't find a publisher for it they should do a Kickstarter; I'd totally back it!
Tel Prydain Posted March 5, 2015 Posted March 5, 2015 Yes. Please. Thank you. Failing Fallout: The tale of an average Joe making his way in the Mojave: Failing Fallout New Vegas The tale of an average Joe forced out into the Capital Wasteland: Failing Fallout 3
