Alpha Protocol issues license to NOT kill


4.4


According to a Twitter update from Obsidian regarding its upcoming stealth-em-up RPG, Alpha Protocol, it's possible to complete the game without killing anyone. The tweet failed to elaborate on why someone would choose to play through a spy-action game without killing anyone (but you can bet there's some kinda reward in store for the apprehensive player) and also whether or not it's possible to clear the game without maiming, disfiguring or severely bruising anyone. Frankly, given the nature of the action-spy business, we don't see how that would be possible.
The "no kill" challenge has been posed before, appearing in other stealth titles like Metal Gear Solid and even the straight action-oriented Mirror's Edge. In fact, it would be kinda strange if Alpha Protocol didn't allow players to finish the game without killing -- it's become a requisite for the genre, after all.
Well, however you decide to tackle Alpha Protocol, at least there's some sex in it for you, right?

I am surprised to hear this. If someone can get it done than you are a ninja. I will say that this will most likely be one of the most challenging things to do in a video game.

I would try this, everytime I really want to kill someone I wuold save and take out the disc, I wonder if it is auctually possible to pass everything without killing. That would be some challenge, better be a good reward if it is even possible.
