Boring. Boring and monotonous interviewer almost put me to sleep until he surprised by asking whether choices are redundant, giving the example of bad/neutral/good choices all leading to the same outcome in other games, to which the interviewed says things change immensely for the whole game, which sounds like an absurd overstatement, coming from Obsidian, but I hope I'm wrong.

Other than that, nothing new. The same stuff every preview and interview had, except the Saudi weapons dealer didn't come up as an example.

... the Saudi weapons dealer didn't come up as an example.

I'm sure you must have misheard. This simply cannot be.

 

[Clockwork Knight]

Is that weapons dealer guy noticed anywhere else than the codex?

If not, I'm gonna force meme the fuck out of it when the game comes out

 

[denizsi]

Why wait for it to come out? It doesn't need to be true to be a meme. It's the only example ever given so it deserves to be made a meme. Alpha Protocol is an espionage RPG where you can help or kill Saudi Weapon dealers.

There was another bit in this interview that gave me the impression there will be a big end game battle and those you allied with will come to your aid, but I might have read too much between the lines.

Exact quote is, that allies "play all the way into the end game".

That just means they will keep giving you kewl stuff through the game
