this game sounds awful. why do people like lovely boring games where you grind to get more items so you can continue playing your boring lovely grind-game?

theres a certain incredibly sad kind of person who is addicted to positive reinforcement and the appearance of success or progress rather than any actual moment to moment enjoyment or increase in real skill. that person is who borderlands and destiny and etc is for. pity them

Lol, the lesson learned from destiny is that companies can just hype the poo poo out of any new turd and it will sell like hot cakes.

this is the lesson learned from uh

Honestly the more I play this game the more it makes me want to play diablo, a game with a better loot system, or planetside 2, a game with better multiplayer and shooter mechanics.

So I guess it's a success on some level.

this game reminds me of better games which are also not very good, and therefore it is a success

its not just a profit in general that needs to be turned, its a certain level of profit relative to the investment, which in this case was 500 million loving dollars so it would have to have its work cut out for it to make itself worth it

Yeah it looks awesome and scary but I really hated playing the last of us and all I could think during the gameplay trailer was how much this played exactly like it, right down to the popup icons for retards on items and doors and the grabbing animation ugh

just wait until it comes out, and then if it looks good, get it

Yeah, alpha protocol is definitely sub par. I love the story and dialog, but it would probably be more enjoyable as an interactive novel than the gameplay it launched with.

parts of the gameplay are really fun. smgs are a blast once you get the second level of their special ability so it lasts 10 seconds and martial arts owns. i just wish the other 3 weapons were that fun, pistols are too easy/assault rifles are boring/shotguns are awful
