How do you top a great game? How do you undo the process of catharsis that occurs at the end of the game so you are challenged once more into becoming a fragmented Art Cop sorry cop Communnard.

They would have been told to expand the appeal, dumb down the rhetoric, and trick the masses into buying-in. They would have ultimately sold out no matter what.

Kinda glad to have played the best game and it stays the best.

    It would have been tough to top, but if the story of the sequel was as good as the first I wouldn't have been too upset if the gameplay itself didn't live up to the first.

    I think the biggest issue that people have is that not only was the creative talent behind the first let go, they also seem intent on turning the game into something it should never be, a live service that tries to suck as much money from its player base as possible.

      On the other hand, it will be fitting if the sequel to DE is the most capitalist thing imaginable. The last spark of hope in the world is snuffed out, Revachol gets nuked, and everything eventually swallowed up by The Pale - but damn did the MoralIntern raise the stock portfolios of its members.
