I just read that today in the Ars Technica review. And am no longer buying the game. Cymbaline Send a noteboard - 26/01/2010 10:42:33 PM
I was rather looking forward to it, and now I'm rather crushed. I had absolutely no idea that they were taking it from 2/3 RPG, 1/3 FPS to 1/3 RPG, 2/3 FPS. I hate FPSes, and suffered through those segments of the first one so that I could enjoy the RPG aspects of it. Now that they've basically eviscerated the RPG portion of the game, removing inventory, stats, exploration, lots of conversation, side missions, and who knows what else, I'm going to pass. Goddammit.

Oh well. Anyone know any good scifi RPGs?

I agree. I'm looking forward to it very much (spoilers if you haven't played the first one). Aemon - 25/01/2010 01:48:48 AM 732 Views

I'd have been happy to continue with my original class... TaskmasterJack - 25/01/2010 05:14:04 PM 653 Views

Also, it looks like I'll lose my CoD:MW2 playmate for awhile. *NM* TaskmasterJack - 25/01/2010 05:21:09 PM 326 Views
Nah, I'll still CoD it up. But I will just be up later at night *NM* Mats Gambling Buddy - 25/01/2010 07:26:41 PM 317 Views

Anyone watch the NFC championship game? Cymbaline - 26/01/2010 04:27:07 AM 644 Views
They really want to bring some of those FPS players into the RPG fold. Very badly. lord-of-shadow - 26/01/2010 06:44:53 AM 704 Views
That's why they've stripped out many of its actual RPG elements, for better and/or worse. *NM* Zalis - 26/01/2010 04:15:38 PM 314 Views

I played the first one largely in FPS style because of my class. TaskmasterJack - 26/01/2010 04:28:53 PM 664 Views
I think the Soldier class definitely fits that. Playing Vanguard on the PC, myself. Zalis - 26/01/2010 04:45:58 PM 667 Views
