It's the least I could do Andrea. After all, I'm sure it must be a lot of work to research all the information required for a community playthrough like this one, like all the cool links you included so far. It offers significant depth to it all. Incidentally, I ended up wishing we'd concentrate more on the experience of the playthrough, rather than its overall pacing.

...

I had another thought on the inspired dialogue writing. I noticed that all the conversations feel unique (even the simple ones with secondary characters) and that Gabriel's dry wit and attitude remain consistent throughout. I sometimes have this feeling when playing today's adventures, but it never seems as good as this game. Grace also remains consistent, even though she was voiced by three different actresses in the series, which is unbelievable.

Here is an example of a typical exchange between Gabriel and Grace that I really love. It's so simple, and yet it gives us all we need to know about these characters:

Spoiler:
Gabriel: Tell me about yourself, Grace.
Grace: Yeah right, Knight.
Gabriel: I mean it!
Grace: What do you wanna know?
Gabriel: How old are you?
Grace: Old enough to know about men like you.


I just... love this game!
