It never was supposed to be an FPS."

It's irrelevant how long you have paid atention to BL. i didn't call a FPS. TROIKA has made it clear it was a FPS/RPG. Blame them; not me.

BL is a FPS/RPG. Deal with it.

If Troika makes a sequel or expansion to Bloodlines I hope it has a lot less combat and a lot more dialogue.

II wouldn't mind the combat if it was 'fun'

melee just didn't work, good ideas, just... eh

balance at the end seemed horrid, would shoot those chinese ninja :P things 4-5 times in the head with a desert eagle before they would go down, and then more would respawn, that's not fun, thats annoying.

Have you even played it yet? It's a pure straight up Action RPG with a bit more RPG then the usual types.

If you're having problems with the guards don't even try the boss. I got there without much problems but that boss turned out to be the toughest sonovabitch I've seen in a Troika game.

Depends what skill you have. Until I maxed it out I never got one shot kills except with a sniper rifle. Funny thing is that there is more than enough skill points to make a total ass kicking character. The real SHIT PART I came across was you would be screwed if you were total melee. Not that the skill sucks, there's a design flaw with one boss.

I don't need to. I trust troika. They call it a FPS/RPG therefore it is a FPS/RPG.
