Do you find something comical about my appearance when I'm driving my automobile?

I mean I think the game's mediocre but what? In 90% of video games, attacking someone is only last resort because it's the only possible option and in 9% of the remainder it's one of the first options presented to you!

You can hate the game all you want and I have no stake in it either way but seriously, what?


Wait, you don't remember Wolfenstein 3D, where you had the option of sitting down for tea with the Nazi's and just talking things out and hopefully convincing them that Hitler sucks and they should just set you free?

Or what about Space Invaders, where you use diplomatic means to end the invasion of Earth.

I don't know what this guy was referring to. In a lot of games, you're pretty much driven to violence, or it isn't an option. Which says something about the usage of violence in videogames. There are exceptions to the whole attack rule, but the only games I could think of were games like Hitman or other stealth games.
