Also female V's voice gets extremely hostile even when you pick the milder dialog options, it's annoying because I'm trying to shmooze most situations and I'm like chill out you're gonna blow it.

yeah the male V voice does that too. there's no way to fully stop being a punk to others in this game.

Stadia is actually really good though. I was playing this at 7pm yesterday on Stadia and haven't had any issues with it.

If it does get killed would suck though. Kind of like not getting your old digital console games anymore I guess, but feels worse since it shouldn't happen.

The problem is that it's a Google product. The idea itself isn't bad, but well I wouldn't trust buying something off Google, also their attempts to get software for it or things built off the ground were hilariously bad. Hell I don't think you can even use a non-stadia controller on a PC yet. But if you have it working fine at 4K that is cool.

I don't understand hacking though. I jack in and it keeps changing rows on me? I don't get it.

It alternates between horizontal and vertical set of options based on the string you're selecting. It always starts horizontal on the top row, then you'll only be able to select strings in the column below your choice, then in the row that next choice belongs to, so on and so forth.

If it's not obvious you don't necessarily want to blurt out any of the time limited speech options when they pop up btw. Sometimes they are all bad/piss people off and the composed response is the charismatic one.

I do like the female V performance but I wish the dialogue choices better reflected what you're going to actually say/do. This game is really bad about that actually. I'll pick an option that I feel is witty and V will just be like "yeah I'm gonna loving kill you" and a fight starts. (This happened in the quest where you convince a cop to drop an investigation.) Even in more typical situations, I feel like V is constantly acting in a way that is not in line with the choices I'm selecting.

That's weird, I'm pretty sure I used an Xbox 360 controller to play Stadia on my PC when I got the launch version (and of course keyboard/mouse work). You can't use those on Chromecasts though.

I'm actually a pleb who uses a 1080p TV, it might suck at 4k.

The rest, yeah, Google could shut it down at any time because it isn't a core business.

My nostalgia is too strong for Alpha Protocol for an accurate comparison. Maybe not quite the same mission complexity but close, and there's a lot of it.

You're allowed to have extra inputs so long as you get the asked-for numbers in the right order. So, in that image, you could pick the first 1C in the first row, then go down to the E9 in the bottom row, then across to the first 55, then up to either of those 7A's.

I was hoping it would scratch my Deus Ex itch, but it seems to have a bit of the GTA/Watchdogs approach to open world storytelling and aesthetics.

I'll still give it a shot though.

Outside of reviewers that had to rush through the game, no one has played enough to be able to answer this. I've heard that side quests can wildly change your ending, but from what I've seen the three life paths amount to 20-60 minutes of content that funnel you into an otherwise identical prologue.

I'm sure a few quests will have dialogue touching on your origin / choices, but expecting Alpha Protocol is probably unrealistic.

yep - and it checks the sequence for all applicable codes/code sequences are not exclusive to each goal so if you had a better cyber deck with a 5 slot buffer you’d then be able to get the data mine v1 in addition by having selected the uppermost 7A and cutting over to the other 1C

I’ve had unique life path or skill based dialogue in a bunch of places so far, although I’d say 80-90% of the time it’s just incidental poo poo and only the rest of the time they’re actual “options” (the yellow text).

ya once I realized this the breach hack made much more sense. that being said, the game definitely doesn't explain it to you very well since a lot of people are coming out still confused by it.

This game needed another 6 months at least. I’m one of the fortunate ones not having any performance issues and don’t get me wrong the visuals are incredible, but I don’t think the gameplay has a satisfying feel to it at all. Combat and stealth feels very generic and the AI is atrocious. I just effortlessly sprinted through a major combat part that I’m willing to bet was supposed to be challenging and enemies completely ignore your partner while they casually walk to catch up to you.

I assumed this was just one of those bugs I ran into and no one else did like item indicators not showing up ever so I had to explore every bit of the areas I was in, until I died for like the fifth time in that first shootout and then they just randomly appeared.

The fact that you only get one stock voice for each set of given pronouns is weird enough; but the fact that you can only really play as relatively light skinned brown characters (or one weirdly greenish dark tone) falls flat for me.
