Alpha Protocol

Its kinda Like Mass effect married 24. And I LOVE IT

This game rocks. It's like a nice, solid season of television. The plot had me really hooked. Thorton is the man. Much has been said about how much the story can change based on your decisions. Even as someone who doesn't replay many games, I look forward to giving Alpha Protocol a second or even third run. I will happily recommend this game based on the sole playthrough though. I already got my money's worth. MAIN POINTS - I really enjoyed the rhythm between gameplay and reading dossiers. Admittedly, my eyes glaze over when games throw a whole bunch of reading material at me, but Alpha Protocol's parses out its reading in the correct doses and the information contributes heavily to roleplay and decision-making. - Stellar voice acting across the board. - I've never been much for shooters, but the field agent template was fun. I couldn't help but want to be James Bond. - The game is not TOO long. I finished my first playthrough in about 22.5 hours. I'm cursed to enjoy million-hour RPGs with too many things to do, but Alpha Protocols is more managable. I don't feel like this review is doing the game much justice, but I can heartily recommend it. It's as good, if not better than anything else I've played from Obsidian (Pillars of Eternity, Tyranny, Fallout: NV, Pentiment, Outer Worlds). In particular, it scratches the game itch as stuff like Cyberpunk 2077 and Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines, though maybe that's just me. I happily purchased this as the full price of $19.99. It would be a steal if you got this on sale.

This game sucks in a lot of ways, the gameplay, constant glitches and mid story, but I'd be lying if I didn't love how stiff, awkward or batshit everything was

keep trying to save my game buut for some reason it won't let me :/ been wanting to play this again for years and it doesn't even work properly!

Good story and roleplaying but wow is the action gameplay shoddy.
