After playing the game, I really agree with Jerykk.

I also find it horribly how much the score system is embedded to the gameplay. You see, if I want to disguise as a cook and just throttle the target to death.. that may as well be one of the lowest scores to get. Because if you decide to just use 1 disguise, you miss out on the "disguise as this guy, this guy and this guy!" 'achievement' score, so instead the game would want me to either: 1. Keep on disguising once you started to do so, or 2. Don't disguise at all and just finish the level with just your suit for the "You finished the level without disguising! w00t!" 'achievement'.

It's fucking horrible.

Also, if you look at how to get the best score and what 'achievements' per level to get... you spoil every single possibility of how to kill your target. Seriously, take one look in the "score" tab and you know you can, for example, do the following: poison your target, explode your target, electrify your target, snipe your target, push your target in a pit of acid or make him step in his own mines.

It's fucking horrible.




Favourite games of all time: 1. Severance. 2. Vampire the Masquerade Redemption. 3. can't come up with #3
