Alpha Protocol E3 Preview

RPGFan has a short preview of Alpha Protocol, not really adding much we didn’t know already.

Playing as Michael Thorton, a relatively inexperienced but competent field agent. During a mission gone horribly wrong, Thorton uncovers a conspiracy that sends him throughout the world trying to unravel the source. Thorton speaks to those around him using what’s called the Dialogue Stance System (DSS). Rather than give players the complete text of what they would say, Obsidian allows players a limited amount of time to select the style of response they want to see on-screen. All of the dialogue is presented cinematically, so the choices that the player makes all happen in real time.
