Alpha Protocol E3 Preview

Obsidian Entertainment’s spy-themed RPG has once again been given the E3 preview treatment, and this time it’s courtesy of TeamXbox.

Nearly everything you do in Alpha Protocol earns you points this is an RPG after all. You have a PDA that keeps track of all of the details, such as the intel you’ve received throughout the game, bios of all individuals you’ve met, your faction standing, your service record, maps and gameplay hints. It’s also where you access the skill tree: You allocate the points you’ve earned to build up your skills in certain areas of expertise; there are nine different skills, and each one can be boosted up to ten levels. According to Tim Ernst, the game’s producer, you can’t hit the level caps on your character on a single playthrough.which says something else about the game.

There are lots of weapons you can get into your hands (you can find items during your travels, but also buy them at various merchants/retailers), and there’s also an opportunity to upgrade those arms in many ways. Every weapon has four modification slots, such as the sight and the barrel, so you’ll be able to craft a wide variety of offensive tools for your arsenal. When you add in the wealth of gadgets such as incendiary grenades and sticky mines you’ll see how you can take on the enemy in many ways.
