Obsidian Would Like to Make Another Alpha Protocol Game

Well said, short and sweet. Alpha Protocol was very enjoyable, even with its flaws.deathninja said:
I can't bear a second playthrough though, and the plot confuses me still. A shame, because I enjoyed it.
I don't know why I'm so forgiving with Obsidian when it comes to the buggyness/unfinished aspects of their games...
I loved KOTOR 2, Fallout NV, and Alpha Protocol. I also bought Dungeon Siege 3... KNOWING that the game's release being pushed back will STILL include bugs.
They still get a free pass from me for some reason.
I would very much like to see another Alpha Protocol.

Bugs aren't the same as flawed and unpolished gameplay mechanics. Bugs can be fixed with patches, but flawed and unpolished mechanics are set in stone once the game launches. AP didn't have many bugs, but it was about as polished as an unpolished turd (That isn't polished at all).Irridium said:
And again, this is coming from a guy that enjoyed Alpha Protocol.
Hrmn. I guess im the only one who hated it.. The story while interesting, did nothing to make up for the clunky mechanics, completely broken skill tree and Lackluster polish on the animations and graphics.. I cant say it was any worse than say dragonage 2 But i Digress..
It belongs on a console and though I yearn for a more oldschool deus ex type game, its NOT happening on a multiport . or at least I have yet to see it

I really enjoyed Alpha Protocol...played it on console...and I don't think I ran into any bugs at all. But then, I never seem to run into all these numerous, terrible Obsidian bugs everyone goes on and on about.
Here's the thing. In my opinion, Obsidian has some of the best writing around...I think they have better writers than Bioware--compare KotOR's black/white world with the more subtle, gray, nuanced KotOR2 (though I think Bioware has learned a lot from Obsidian and has gotten much better--the Dragon Age games are excellent).
I really support Obsidian and I, like others, am a bit tired of all the Obsidian hate. There seem to be games that reviewers decides are buggy or bad...I suspect because of buggy review copies, and they get trashed, rather unfairly. Advent Rising was another example of a wonderful game that did terribly in sales because of poor reviews that didn't at all seem fair.
Anyway, all I'm saying is this: Obsidian, if you read this, I am a huge fan and I would *love* to have another Alpha Protocol!
