Teletheus

@hiruuamon Actually, KOTOR2 was stronger than KOTOR in a lot of ways -- especially the writing. Kreia is still probably the most well-written character in videogames. Ever.

@MakeThemListen Hey, I'm not knocking it; I loved it too. Like I said, it got worse treatment than it deserved. It wasn't perfect -- there were certainly some flaws in the gameplay -- but it was definitely worth playing, especially for those who care primarily about good story (and who like the spy genre).

Alpha Protocol, like most of Obsidian's games, was a game that tried to do a lot of really cool things on the story and plot side but ran out of time in development to get the polish right. They tried to do so many things with that game that they didn't get anything perfect. (See also KOTOR2, especially the last 10% or so.)

They came pretty close with the way the story unfolded in AP, though, and the way interaction with characters had the potential to affect the way the game played out so dramatically. In a world of sane game ratings, it'd have been a 6 or a 7 out of 10. Probably about 3 stars. It certainly wasn't perfect, but it definitely got worse treatment than it deserved.

@MakeThemListen Why on earth would you think Firefly was "great" if its lead character was played by a terrible actor?

Nathan Fillion is at his best when he's firing off snarky witticisms (which is why he'd be such a good choice for Drake, incidentally), but he showed a lot of range as Mal. Brooding, righteously angry, indignant, indifferent, reluctant, compassionate, cruel, arrogant, broken... If you really watched all of Firefly, you saw a LOT of top-notch acting from that man.

@(Unverified) Wahlberg was okay in The Other Guys with Will Farrell. That was a pretty good movie, and the character was well-suited to Mark's strengths -- the loser who gives 110% but just doesn't have the natural talent to do excellent work.

He can play a decent straight man in a comedic pair; he does not, however, have the charisma or comic timing to play Nathan Drake.

Why would anyone who's investigating disappearances choose "to take only a cursory glance at the corpse?"

@Anticrawl I prefer Deathmetaphors.

@eilegz Are you familiar with any of the other stuff Telltale has done? Like, ever?

@jph89 Combat? Let me korrect that for you.

@JnRx Not only is Sony "coming for all of" them," but they don't even need to come and confess, because Sony is gonna find them.
