Bitmob's latest editorial deals with if Bioware's Mass Effect 2 game has made it so that all future rpg games will be hold up to what they call "a masterfully streamlined action/adventure." They also think this is the reason for the mixed reception Alpha Protocol have gotten:
Case in point is Obsidian's Alpha Protocol (PC, Xbox 360, PS3), which releases in just a few days. The game has been receiving generally negative reviews so far, and while I don't doubt it deserves some derision (I haven't played it but expect it to be a fun but flawed experience), I doubt that it would be treated this way if Mass Effect 2 hadn't streamlined the RPG experience so masterfully.
What do you think? Do you agree?
