Can't argue with that. The fighting is pretty bad (yet the stealth is adequate). Only response I have is that you can get around most of the combat. The game doesn't force you to fight. For instance in Chapter 4:
Spoiler:When you have to get April to climb up the scaffolding, instead of fighting the guard you can sneak up behind him and press one button for an instant kill; I think she chokes him or something. And in the Border House with Zoe, you can turn the pizza on so that the guy gets distracted while you sneak by.

I think you may be a little confused and less interested with the story because you haven't played the first game, and a lot of the characters and locations are unfamiliar to you.

I don't think they've really been working on the game for that long, have they? The first game didn't even come out until 1999/2000. We didn't hear anything about Dreamfall until like 2003.
Anyway, I don't see anything wrong with the graphics. Yes they are not as good on Xbox, but Dreamfall still has decent graphics. This is not Oblivion we are talking about.

Stupid and necessary.

Um, maybe because people use profanity in real life. :Shocked:
Seriously, Dreamfall does not use profanity for the sake of being cool or targeting the game to teenagers. They use it when it's appropriate. If you were Zoe and caught up in all that mess, would you not say "shit" every once in a while? Come on. Let's be real here.
