Something I keep coming back to
A lot of complaints surrounding the initial release of this game didn't make sense to me. Some, like the simple gameplay loop being unable to sustain the exorbitant length, are valid concerns. Others, like not being given the option to play a purely lawful police chief, seem to hint at an unfamiliarity with the genre. It's noir. There's no 'right' choice and evil joke option. Noir is all about corruption and moral ambiguity. It's akin to criticizing a Lovecraft-inspired game for making you feel that you're an insignificant speck in the universe. That's cosmic horror, fella. What were you expecting? It'll be a shame to dismiss This is the Police based on the conventions of its genre because you'd be missing out on two and a half hours of comic book narration by the voice of Duke Nukem (seriously, he's great) with punchy dialogue, beautiful minimalistic art, and a 1950s style of music that you'll catch yourself humming for weeks. The limited gameplay loop is far surpassed by the sequel, but I still think the first game is worth it for the story alone.
