My God this game is gorgeous. Only 30 minutes in and I love the Victorian East End and Wonderland. So much better than the original.

I was going to go on about how awesome the art direction & sound are, but then I noticed that whenever the game loads, my keybindings are gone. Not reset to default, FUCKING GONE. As in I cant do anything because no keys are assigned to it. Not even Esc works so you can't get back into the menu, have to alt-tab and close it. Also my savegames have disappeared.
American McGee is on record as stating that Chinese programmers can do every bit as good a job programming as western programmers can and also work dirt cheap. He then went on to release the notoriously shitty Bad Day LA, making himself and his Chinese buddies seem like retards. They seem to have upped their game a great deal since then though, as Alice 2 is a hígh-quality product.abnaxus said:Interestingly, judging from the credits this game apparently was mainly developed in Asia. 90% of developer names are Chinese, there are even Indonesian names.

I assumed that she is usually wrapped in these dresses, so I didn't think it was worth mentioning. Although her NOT wearing the dresses would also be an acceptable prospect.Konjad said:Falkner said:Is it bad that I want to play this just to see the pretty dresses?
Yeah. You should want to play it to watch the pretty Alice as well.

Konjad said:Hater's gonna hate. For me it's one of the best action oriented titles ever and one of the best games released in recent years.
I have much more fun with Alice than with the Twitcher 2, even though I love cRPGs and dislike platform games in general. But yeah, don't play Alice, you've got blue alien sex waiting for you in Ass Effect 2.
Eyeball said:I also just finished this game. I have to admit that my initial impressions were faulty. Alice 2 is not a good game.
It's a fucking great game! Save for the lack of interesting bossfights save for the final showdown and occasional annoying minigame, the twisted environments, good voice acting, amazing art style and frankly horrifying storyline make this the best action platformer since Psychonauts, hands down.
What a fucked-up ending - I really didn't think the game would go there, although it strongly foreshadowed it previously through the memories you could collect. I didn't even realise that the game was essentially a whodunit until after the 3rd chapter. Anyone wanting to play through this: Please don't look in any walkthroughs for spoilers. While it is not immediately clear that Alice 2 even HAS a storyline, rest assured: It is there and it is great.
Fucking brilliant game. Professional game reviewers can feast on a bag of dicks for dismissing this as just another boring platformer while drooling at the prospect of gorging themselves on more uninspired FPS dogshit.
