I just read that today in the Ars Technica review. And am no longer buying the game.

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).

Also, it looks like I'll lose my CoD:MW2 playmate for awhile.

They really want to bring some of those FPS players into the RPG fold. Very badly.

That's why they've stripped out many of its actual RPG elements, for better and/or worse. *NM*

I played the first one largely in FPS style because of my class.

I think the Soldier class definitely fits that. Playing Vanguard on the PC, myself.
